So you like it? You think i should keep it?

@whalekeeper lolll the horse meme got a good laugh out of my brother

@ellette-giselle Weirdly enough, I actually kinda liked Julian’s POV. It was interesting to see someone who was technically monotheistic, but it wasn’t the true God, and how Julian reacted to that. I feel like even if you chuck the story for now, you should save the concept for either later in the book or a different one.

@whalekeeper nope, I’m not a board games/roleplay games person. My friend and I did a warrior cats tabletop game once, but it didn’t last long. I only play roleplay games (mostly warrior cats or dragon-themed) on computer now.

Does anyone have experience playing DnD? We talked about it on the meet-up call today, and I’ve done a bit of research.

(I know this probably isn’t the best place to ask, but I’m also interested to see if most people avoid the game, or whatever.)

@raxforge

Aw, I’m sorry to hear that, I’ll be praying for you.

Thanks man 🙂

@beth-torres

It is the morning of the dance. The party will start in the evening so there’s still plenty of time.

@linus-smallprint

I think it would depend on how traumatized Alan’s instincts are. It makes sense for somebody in panic to fly off into risky situations, but if he has the sense to think about how he’s going to travel and hide, then he might have to put some thought into where he is going.

@linus-smallprint

I have also considered making up a world with my friends and doing our own fantasy RPG in it.

Hey, that could be interesting!

Yikes! That’s scary

yeah. No kidding.

@linus-smallprint

aaannnddd I may have overrated. I just….. yeah, I have opinions about that game.

@linus-smallprint

NO!!! No don’t do D&D. My two of my mom’s guy friends were killed through that game when she was a teenager.

I mean, you can do it with you want, but I’d really look into the history of that game. I know I’m asking for it, but that game originally had a lot of demonic attachments, and it’s something I’ve always steered clear of…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Yeah that would work!

@linus-smallprint

Julian is certainly a blame others type, considering his reaction to Adrian’s death. Leon, I’m not so sure about it.

Yes, very much so.

I’m not really sure either. He’s somewhere in the middle honestly.

No. We still have it, though we haven’t played it for a while. We just ignore the story when we do play it.

Ah, one of those…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

he’ll go doggedly on.

I was stunned for almost a week and didn’t think clearly.

(again, different person. But trauma does weird things)

@raxforge

Oh my word.

Why are all your characters so messed up?!?!

(quickly hides Rory because he’s totally not messed up)

😂😝

@whalekeeper

Horse what???

What did I just see?

@hybridlore

You’re welcome! I’d love to see Everette in a bind like that, and maybe someone surprising like Cole (could be a really cool moment) is like, “hold on a sec, he got less time then the rest of us,” or something like that.

Just a thought. It could show an interesting angle on the dislike of any sort of Christian beliefs or standings.…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Nope.

I wouldn’t think so.

I think he’ll run until he drops (basiclly) and then he’ll either be so dead tired that he sleeps hard, or he’ll fight nightmares and flashbacks. I don’t think he’ll have time to think about this sort of things.

Out of experience, when you go through trauma parts of your mind just kind of turn off…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Haha. That’s funny. we’re complete opposite! I struggle with never ever ever being wrong. Ever. Things just “happen to me” and often times “the world just hates me and is out to get me.” 😂

I have never struggled with blaming myself for something, but rather blaming others when it’s my fault or when blame isn’t even supposed…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Considering the circumstances, I don’t think the above will go through his mind. I think he’ll run there because that’s the only place he can go really, and he’s going to be having a really, really hard time. It’s going to be surprising if he thinks clearly enough to get back there without getting lost or injured. Then he gets…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Is it bad that it was reversed?

I’m not convinced by Julian telling Dian the gospel in that moment

Ugh.

I had that feeling as I was editing it.

Hmm…. I might possibly chuck that section altogether………..

So is it bad that Julian responded differently?

Well….. I think that might be because that tends to be w…[Read more]
