XD thanks! I’m taking Japanese rn. I put it through translate too just to make sure I did it right lol.

You do! I forgot about that! Oh that’s super cool! I always like when expressions relevant to history are worked into worldbuilding.

“Drop your weapons or I won’t hesitate to attack.” Came a deep voice ahead of them. At first, he couldn’t see the forms around the dark corner. Fortunately though, his eyes were used to seeing through dark waters, and they adjusted quickly.

A bellowing laugh escaped his chest when he eventually saw the threat. “Atta…[Read more]

Ah, great.

@keilah-h @princesachronicle22

We can continue here if anyone wants to.

@thearcaneaxiom

Yeah, I think it’s important to remember that it’s never bad for a villain to be non sympathetic, it’s just all in the execution.

I would also say that it depends on the villain’s role. Sometimes you need a sympathetic villain for the story to work. But yeah, in and of themselves, a non-sympathetic villain isn’t a bad thing…[Read more]

@keilah-h

True, anti-heros are separate from villains. The mere fact that he can be considered an anti-hero can push him over to likeable, though not always.

@princesachronicle22

Yeah, some of these villains you can root for for different reasons. Some are sympathetic with sad backgrounds, others and just intriguing.

@keilah-h @thearcaneaxiom

Half of these references won’t be recognized but I do happen to have a list of villain’s I root for

-Jacks from Caraval

-Darth Vadar/Anakin from Star Wars

-Loki from Marvel

-Kylo Ren also Star Wars

-Katherine from Heartless

@keilah-h

Ooh, I want to see Abraham Lincoln with a flamethrower!

@keilah-h

Well I’m sort of referencing the first character you mentioned, but I’m also speaking broadly. There’s plenty of stories where people root for the villain, despite them not being redeemable.

@keilah-h

He’s not truly a “good guy” and does some horrible things, but he’s also not totally evil either, and has depth that makes me think what he might’ve become if things had gone differently for him.

Yes, I like that point. I think that is the main difference between, “tragic backstory” verses “pure evil”

Are they evil because of what has…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Yeah, that’s the thing is that even characters that so far gone are characters that sometimes are rooted for the most. They want something, they have a reason for it, and in following them, it makes you like them. This can be the case even when you see nothing redeemable about them.

@keilah-h

hehe my brother called his pacifier “Ash” for some reason? He didn’t literally name it, he just said the word that way for some reason lol

Lol. I called them “passies” and for a time they were named after my cousins.

My co-op notes were full of cute dinosaur characters giving their opinions on logic and Spanish.

I love that. I wish I lea…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Aww, thanks! They were a lot of fun.

You guessed correctly. 😉 It’s a drawing I did of Jupiter Smalls as a youngling. (He might be my favorite character.) I swapped my profile pic in honor of Green Ember‘s birthday back in December, but forgot to change it back.

@keilah-h

Why, thank you!

@highscribeofaetherium

One word.  I is insane.

@keilah-h

Thanks!

@keilah-h

Goose sounds amazing!😂 Legos are so fun. I have a lego guy by the name of Christopher Cornelius who has a car that is basically a box on wheels covered in random pieces, including propellers, antennas, and flowers. His poor daughter is so embarrassed.

@theducktator @keilah-h @whoeverI’mforgettingi’mshortontime

I’m a lot more story-driven than character driven, although sometimes I come up with a character I really want to write make up a story to plunk them into. I love story ideas, and only AFTER I come up with the story do I come up with the characters, love them, get attached to them (is t…[Read more]

@keilah-h thanks!

hehe uhhh I was trying to respond to Whaley, but none of my posts were going through, so I just started goofing around. It’s from Alice Through the Looking Glass. I didn’t actually think that it would post 😅

@keilah-h

Mkay, sounds good

@keilah-h

It was under Music, and I posted Saint Patrick’s Breastplate, my dad’s favorite hymn, in honor of Saint Patrick’s Day. I tried to edit my post, maybe Wyoh didn’t like that.
