Gabriel clapped, genuinely smiling under his mask. “Just like that! No, only the Fourth knows I can throw hatchets. To my acquaintances, they would say I’d be the first one to die if a monster attacked because I have no self-preservation and they think I have no training,” Gabriel chuckled, amused by their opinions. “No,…[Read more]

Gabriel smiled softly. “Take a step closer to the tree before you throw again, it should properly rotate and lodge in the tree that way,” He took the hatchet and lodged it perfectly in the tree. He retrieved it for Lucy before speaking again. “I’ve seen such games at festivals. I never participated, though I have been…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I’ve never done it lol. I looked up a YouTube tutorial.

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel patted her shoulder lightly as if to say it was alright, though his own ears didn’t appreciate the sound.

“Nice try.” Gabriel picked up the hatchet, and gave it back to her. “Throw it straight. Take your time if you have to, and don’t put so much force in.…[Read more]

“I can teach you that as well, but I want to teach you how to throw an axe first. It could come in handy in this labyrinth.” Gabriel removed the cover and checked the hatchet over, then took a few steps closer to the tree, until about 12 feet away. “I think it’ll throw good from this distance. Any farther and it might…[Read more]

So the idea you got is already pretty good! But if you need more inspo…

The War of 1812 was interesting, because the United States had just won her independence from Great Britain roughly 30 years ago, and then there they are fighting again. But France/Napoleon Bonaparte also played a role in this by pitting the two against e…[Read more]

Lol! Easton… no… don’t promise all that! 😢 You don’t know what’s going to happen!

Willow and Ruby are so cute. 🤣

@savannah_grace2009 (it’s the scene!!) @hybridlore @ummm, anyone, because I can’t remember who all read Worth All the World XD

Working on the third draft of WAtW currently, and I’m adding in a couple of scenes, including this one, inspired by Sara! 😁

It’s unedited and I’m still not sure where it’s going to fit exactly, so it might feel clunky…[Read more]

@theducktator

My family doesn’t even celebrate Christmas until Christmas Eve.

Is there a reason why you do that?

I’m just curious because I’m going through an advent devotional right now, and the author introduced me to some of the feasts and celebrations leading up to Christmas (like St. Nicholas and St. Lucia), even though my denomination doesn…[Read more]

@theducktator

Aw, I’m sorry! How are you feeling now?

@esther-c I’ll be praying! 🤗

Oh and also the reminder that I pray for everything y’all post. XD I don’t always reply, but every time I get a notif I pray 🤗

If y’all could be praying for my mom/my family. So last year she had a surgery to remove some tissue which had the potential to become cancerous (or was cancerous… I’m not exactly sure, lol). Everything’s been fine since then. But she’s been having appointments recently, some just as follow-up from last year, but they’ve also found some tissue…[Read more]

@theducktator

lol, thanks….. but I think that message was for @rae , unless you’re talking about something I wrote…. (which you very well might be with my track record…… XD)

@theducktator

Oh poor girl! I’ll be praying!

“Because this place is dangerous, and no place for a child. You should be at home, eating cookies or something by a fire. Children should be protected above others, because they’re the future, and the most vulnerable. That’s why.”

They rounded a corner of the maze, opening up into a circular area, about thirty feet in…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Lol, yes.

Gabriel Mai

The foggy labyrinth stretched on before them. Gabriel’s hearing had returned, and now be could hear footsteps somewhere along one of the many passages. They were too far away for Gabriel to be able to distinguish man from beast. He kept his hand on the hilt of his knife, eyes scanning the walls of the maze.…[Read more]

“Lucy! You should have used the key to go home!” Gabriel dug his fingertips into his hair, before sighing, composing himself, and putting his mask back on. “Let’s go.”

@whalekeeper

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel looked down at her. “You really shouldn’t breath in mysterious mists that are down low like that. Many poisonous mists are heavier than air.” She appeared fine, so Gabriel decided not to freak out. “What is it you want me to look at?”
