Good! Please do.

YES! I do that ALL THE TIME.

I know where you can find some words. There’s this really cool book I’ve read, and it’s really helpful when it comes to words.

It’s called the dictionary. 😛

You know you’re a writer when your own villains give you nightmares.

No, I haven’t. 😀

He looks like quite an interesting villain though.

Who on earth is that? 😛

Yes! That’s what we’ve got going here. In the first few posts we have two friends, Walter and Alex.
Walter’s family was killed by terrorists, and he suspected Alex of conspiring with the terrorists to that end. So he went and became a villain (I make it sound so easy, don’t I?) and then he killed Alex’s family. The difference is, Alex didn’t…[Read more]

Okay, so we have a lot of material to work with. Please, anyone feel free to join in.

Unless you don’t like these kind of exercises, in which case feel free to sit on the sidelines and laugh up your sleeves while I and whoever else so chooses make fools of ourselves. 😛

So. Walter. What do we mean by charming and mesmerizing? Is it his smile?…[Read more]

Snakes and spiders! Yikes… I know one person that would be harmed by that! Permanently. Me. 😉

But in all seriousness, you have good points, Rolena. I agree. I have no scenes where the ‘good guys’ are torturing anybody… well, one kinda good guy that you don’t really like until later and who definitely still has some problems.
But you’re…[Read more]

Ahem. *Pushes reading-glasses up bridge of nose, presses lips together primly.* How may I be of service?

Okay. Good plan.

Are we outlining a full fledged story, or just as far as it pertains to Walter’s development? I’m cool with either one.

Oooh— what kind of magic tricks?

Amen!
Everybody.

There are a lot of ideas on this topic, some of which may or may not be correct. I’m glad that we can all work together, even with our minorly opposing viewpoints, and try to find a solution for all this. It’s so refreshing that even though a lot of us disagree, we can still carry on a polite conversation.

And I agree that the…[Read more]

Yes, it’s very grey in some areas isn’t it?
That’s a good quote, by the way.

In regards to the ‘treating your neighbor as yourself’, what if your neighbor is a criminal? Obviously you should turn him in— obviously you should see that he comes to justice, even if that’s not what you would want someone else to do to you. How does that qualify as…[Read more]

That makes sense. I agree. I can’t find any flaws in the logic… that may just be me though.

@Ezra-Wilkinson? Logic Master? We need you.

Yes. Do the elf thing.

Yeah, that tends to happen around here. 😀

You raise good points, @howlingwolf. But the question here is not whether or not torture can be faulty, but is it even an acceptable practice, whatever it’s faults.

I certainly grant you there are problems with the system. 😛

That’s funny. I seem to remember you telling us that you were 16,000. Something about healthy living, wasn’t it? 😉
