Anyway, now that the heavy stuff is out of the way….
I had no idea that was written by a Christian! I had heard of the series, but had never looked into it. I’m going to have to add it to my tbr list now. XD
Yeah, I’m continually blown away by how well-written the books are, and the depth of imagination it took for Bryan Davis to w…[Read more]

Actually… now that I think about it… It could be argued the other way as well. That Christian authors do the same thing, just more subtly (hopefully). Oooh, now I’m going to be thinking about this for a while. XD How are we any different from secular authors pushing their agendas? Because I’m sure they can do it without be preachy…

Guys…Chase might have Cancer…

WhAt
Okay lemme get this straight
He’s got a terrible parent, per the norm, but also scars, speech problems, lots of mental stuff due to ded mom, foster care trauma, and probably a lot of injuries within the story on top of probably using his powers too strongly at one point and hurting someone….
And you wanna give him cAncer??
Ngl, I’m besties…[Read more]-
A side character with cancer can be fun, if it’s not super traumafied. Like the boy I know and his family still act normal and invite me over, and he usually starts playing with legos or with dry ice outside.
Like, I cannot stress enough the normalcy a real person with cancer will follow. It’s kind of amazing.-
Oh, and I don’t mean it will take up your “life.” I meant “energy.”

When I looked up Chase’s Broca’s Aphasia (which I do not assign to him directly in the rp, but will do in his actual Universe) I knew that the cause was often pressure or damage on the piece of the brain that deals with communication. This can come in the form of a brain tumor.
That is why I purposefully added the word ‘might’ to my update.
-
I’ve made a lot of decisions about Chase lately.
He used to have a mental therapist, but I’m leaning toward him not having one and his foster family trying to find one that suits him.
Instead, I decided to give him something I don’t dread researching: speech therapy. This is common for those with aphasia to have.
-
Now I need to get a title and more inspired to write his book one day.
Though, it’ll probably be a while in the future. -
Great, glad you figured it out. I’m giving a charrie some brain damage too and it complicates things bevause you have to decide how much it’s going to affect them. Have you figured out a plot for the book? If you haven’t, I don’t blame you, because plot is hard lol.

Reply button!!! I demand you come back!!!
I don’t think so…I have scraps. For one thing, there’s a slyiad who disguises herself as a school teacher (reason why Chase does not like school teachers) and is searching for an ancient object that’s buried somewhere under Shyton.
Once she discovers Chase is part shyiad, she tries to kill him, and in…[Read more]

Oh, okay, that makes sense. So the school teacher is like Mrs. Dodds from PJO 🤣 Narsa Jeptune is a cool villain name. It’s good you can map out some beats in the beginning.
I have like… the emotional beats worked out plus the physical stuff that necessarily have to happen. First book is outli…[Read more]

chase
“N-n-no, meant…talk…what.” Chase’s breathing became heavy in frustration. “Talk what,” he said again. He shook his head. “Talk t-what.” Annoyed and stressed, Chase gave up and let out an exasperated breath. “F-feelings? O-okay. Uh…I-I-I like green.” Chase gave the boy a wobbly apologetic smile.

I think the stories that have impacted me the most are the ones where I get to see the characters struggling with matters of faith and learning how to deal with tough questions, because I learn alongside the character rather than being preached at by the character. I, for one, love a good Christian story that leaves me inspired to…

I despise preachiness. Sometimes it’s okay in a show, where episodic storytelling demands clarity. Or if it’s self-aware. But overall, it’s obnoxious and nobody likes it! If you like preaching, study to be a preacher XD Plus it goes against the whole purpose of storytelling. You teach by example, not by just telling a child somet…
