Wait, what scene is this? Is this a scene where he almost dies in the middle of the story, or is this the end of his story?

I guess it’s my turn to be a tease. I can’t tell you yet, because if I tell you, I’m gonna bury myself into it more and neglect what I actually *should* be working on. I will say this however, it’s at a point…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I do believe you’re just mentioning the chest compressions to pacify me, though.

No, no they actually do bring him back to life. He’s alive, just a little bit in shock because of the wind loosing connection and how his heart stopped.

There’s actually a “cool” explanation behind what or who stopped his heart.

Oh. Actually, I have…

@whalekeeper

Cool! Love that for her. (Except maybe I’m not supposed to love that for her, because it’s a tough job.)

By the time she takes over, the position is much easier thankfully!

She was begging Gabriel for *years* to let her go out fighting with him, and he finally let her and that was the end of him being able to keep her at home XD.…[Read more]

@loopylin

Ah. Makes sense. She has some wisdom. XD

(I very much overthought this question)

That’s valid. I just spent 20 minutes researching the Pre-Raphealite art movement because I was wondering if it would be a better term than “medieval” for costume design. Result: it would not.

@beth-torres

I said hello and then was immediately distracted, sorry. XD Your Minecraft ship sounds splendid.

@whalekeeper

 Since he’s supposed to get sadder and more bitter as time passes,

I grow sadder and more bitter just reading that lol. His story does have a lovely ending though, right? *squints through my ProtectionsquadTM Su…[Read more]

@loopylin

AHHH! Felicity! She is such a fun character. I like her chart.

And I have no other coherent thoughts at the moment. Ummmm…

Would she like sky-diving?

@whalekeeper

But that probably made Gabriel question his appearance more than once.

Oh yes. The hair, and the way he covers up so much made them think that, plus originally he had a more slender frame.

Now in his story as it is currently, he works with a stone mason, so he doesn’t have lithe muscle anymore.

If any of my guy charries were to be…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

What is the reason for this?

It started because the Protector isn’t under the government, and when the First Protector appeared, the government were rightfully wary of civilians trying to mess with strange monsters.

Then it continued as partly tradition and partly that when the Protector becomes the people’s hero, it’s best to keep…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

That’s… cool. Yeah, very cool. SO cool. 😐

Girl, I don’t think you know what the word cool means.

Wait, wait, let me defend myself! Yes, me literally killing Baron isn’t very cool, but the realization about the Elementals that resulted from it is cool!

Btw, chest compressions save lives! Even in fiction.

*Grabs Baron, ties an eva…

@power

Kinda like the prince in The Light Princess?

I’m afraid I don’t have a character like this…yet.

@power

Oooo. I’m not sure. That is an interesting character/plot idea.

Cool little thing.

So last night I wrote a scene that has been in my head where Baron’s heart literally stops. You probably all know how it goes where you write something, then add something to it that you weren’t planning on but somehow makes so much sense?

That was this.

In the scene, just before Baron dies, his connection to the wind snaps.…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

So it really is about passing down the knowledge from previous Protectors, not just becoming another fighter after the last one dies.

Yes. After a few decades, a Protector either becomes to old or too wounded to fight (we shall hope it’s the former for Gabriel) anymore, and that’s when they find their successor. They stay with that…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Just got to look over Moth’s chart. He’s such a fun character. I feel like the arrows are great for showing how he varies depending on circumstances/mood.

The concept of clothes

But not clothes in reality? XD

*Crouches and squawks* RELATaBLE

Yesssssss.

This is sort of what I expected, and I’m glad to know I’m right. XD The idea of…

@whalekeeper

I think the best part about writing this little story about him was the fact that he gave each troll princess a legit chance. XD

This is gold.

@whalekeeper

Firstly, you just made me squeak in joy and turn my normal perch into a gollum-esq crouch. XD

I shall answer thy lovely observations as best I can…

1. Great question! Unfortunately, I don’t know much about her. That was one of the undeveloped part of the story…. They have been betrothed for about two years. It was arranged by…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

They aren’t going to survive long without that mysterious Protector, I’m guessing.

I mean, obviously they have soldiers and guards, but yes, most of the soldiers are just young men who do the work because the pay is actually decent, but otherwise obviously would rather not fight monsters XD. The Protector is a delegation not rec…[Read more]

Also, those arrows of indecision are actually a really good idea. I liketh.

I see he is typically not violent. That is good. Whenever Ari runs into people too much like himself things happen.

I am concerned and intrigued about his fingers.

Lumpy noses and cheese. Had he ever made a lumpy nose out of cheese?

Romantically pursued by TrOlLs??? I…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I sense this lie might have something to do with the lore drop you posted on the rp topic.

You would be correct.

Hehehehehe… He’s an eligible bachelor. That has to be hilarious from his perspective. Is he aware of that, or oblivious? He’s obviously aware that he looks like his father.

Oh my gracious. I never even thought about this.…[Read more]
