(much better than my randomness lol)

The randomness worked well for the setting and gave me ideas 😛

@rae

Lucille

Lucy ran up next to him. “Let me see – come on.”

The peephole was too high for her, and Gabriel had to help her up.

She peeked through the hole. The sight of a warm, stone room greeted her eye. An old man sat on a chair, rocked back and resting, a book’s pages turning in the air of their own accord.

“You can go home,” she whispered.

@whalekeeper

oOoOoooOh I like this idea (much better than my randomness lol)

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel ran his fingers over the wood of the doors. Perfectly smooth, not a splinter. He tried a handle, finding it locked like the one Lucy had tried. If he had to, he wondered if he would be able to break one of these doors down. Was it hollow or solid?…[Read more]

@rae

I literally forget that food exists sometimes until my stomach starts hurting badly.

You might not find my advice useful, especially because you have a physical condition I don’t. I don’t presume to know how many physical vs. mental blocks you’re facing.

But I’ve been actively working on this problem myself. So maybe what I’ve been doing…[Read more]

@rae

I’m so sorry!

Eating habits can be sooo hard to overcome…especially when your subconsciousness is telling you that losing weight=good 😭😭 I’ve been there before. There can be so many lies attached to food and eating habits, and if you think that might be part of the problem, I’d suggest looking at your thoughts and the lies you might be…[Read more]

@esther-c

okay! sounds good!

Don’t worry about it, it’s okay <3

@rae

Lucille

Gabriel opened the door and they slipped into an open, circular room. A room filled with doors.

The doors surrounded Gabriel and Lucy. Tall, stove-sized, ash-white wood, paneled peeling rust – decorated with ornate arches, they encircled the room together. Lucy recognized most of the materials, even if some designs confused her.…[Read more]

XD oh boy, you like a good old tragic story?

Girl, Ellette writes some of the most tragic characters. She and Freedom make it their business to make KP cry, I swear.

Also, thank you. The hair took me forever.

@ellette-giselle

Thanks!. I may go back and put in some parts of the original design, but I said I would let this…[Read more]

Rory

“Who said you couldn’t? And steal a what?!” 

@mineralizedwritings

Idk If I’d recommend it here it’s pretty tragic.

Ooo! *is immediately interested. XD*

@rae

Wow. That is the best drawing I think I’ve ever seen you do. The coloring is perfect! The shading… the tones… it really looks 3D!! Wow! Great job! (Personally, I like the hair direction and expression of the sketched Bar…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings @ellette-giselle

So, first, Min, thank you so much for the advice! It was genuinely the most helpful advice I got (I posted on reddit and Unvale and I didn’t get anything).

Second,

AH! Don’t touch it! Okay….. maybe a little, but leave the eyes and expression and hair. It’s perfect!!!

The expression is still there, but it ha…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

You’re welcome! (I love your quote btw, what’s it from?) and did you do your pfp?

@rae

AH! Don’t touch it! Okay….. maybe a little, but leave the eyes and expression and hair. It’s perfect!!!

@mineralizedwritings

WOW!!! Love that! The shadowing was really well done.

The only way I could imagine getting this kind of wind is if you were standing on the edge of a cliff or had a fan below you. Or maybe in a crazy windstorm.…

Gabriel Mai

“The hardest part will be hitting the target. You shouldn’t have too much trouble. You’re stubborn, and the hatchet is nicely balanced.” His hearing was a little clearer now, though still no where near as sharp as he’d like. “Shall we enter now?” He started up the steps, testing them for rotten boards…[Read more]

@rae

ExcUse me. Noodle arms?? How dare you

I’ve gtg to bed. I will reply to your next thing when I have time tomorrow.

Lucille

She shrugged. “I’ve hammered a rail spike before. Can’t be much harder.”

She didn’t bother to mention she had adult help in the challenge.

@whalekeeper

LOL

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel’s chest moved in a chuckle, before laughing merrily. He seemed amused by her flex, especially since she had thin noodle arms compared to his scarred muscle. “When you learn to throw that hatchet, you’ll be a force to be reckoned with, Little Fire.”

@rae

It’s funny to be the person with the younger weaker character. I’ve unlocked move sets I’ve never used before. Mwahaha

Lucille

“Thank you for stayin’ around me. Even if… heh. I’m strong enough on my own to ride a giant crow.” Lucy flexed her arm and grinned widely.

It wasn’t natural for her to smile that wide but she wanted to do it.

@whalekeeper

🫠

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel froze, then his muscles relaxed. He reached out his other arm, awkwardly hugging her back, gently as if she were made of delicate glass.

“Thank you.” His voice was soft, quiet, no more than a whispering wind of gratitude and faint joy at the gesture.

@rae
Apparently we have only one way to potentially fix this problem. Behold, the power of cuteness:

Lucille

“Hm.” Lucy stood next to Gabriel in the doorframe and watched him pause at the first step. She considered what she did with her parents in stressful emergencies. Awkwardly, she took his arm and gave him a hug.

@whalekeeper

Gabriel Mai

“I…like hearing you talk. I just can’t hear very well right now. Feel better? I…” He wanted to curl into a ball on the floor until his head stopped swirling, until his hearing returned, but he wouldn’t. “I’m not sure. Just stay close and safe.” He wanted comfort. From the Fourth, his steady presence, always there in…[Read more]
