You can judge or write, whichever you want.

@rae

No problemo, are you game to judge? :]

@hybridlore

Wow. I LOVE that description. Do you mind if I use it or something similar?

It’s all yours! Literally use anything you want, I don’t mind XD

@keilah-h

Keilah is a watery green, like a piece of sea glass 🙂

make nameplates for your family or friends, like to hang on their walls or something, and each letter is the color you imagine for it.

Funny thing, our family sometimes divides things by colors for each kid. As a little girl, I suggested what each person’s color should be, and…[Read more]

@hybridlore

If you have time, I would LOVE to hear examples. Like, describing the things you see/feel/hear and what happens when you do.

Okay um… *Thinks about where to start*

So grapheme-color synesthesia is the most common type. I see letters and numbers with colors. Look at a letter, and use your imagination as hard as you can to picture the…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Oh my goodness, how did I not know that before?? I am so glad though. (You may be bombarded with questions in the near future. ;))

That’s fine with me! 😂 I even wrote a ten-page research paper on the subject, so I’ve done the research dive myself and it is certainly complicated.

I’m not sure what the proper names are for all of hers, (…

@the_lost-journal

Look at the first post on this topic. It will explain everything.

Yay, people still want to do this!

@liberty

If you need extra details, check the first post of this topic written by Rae. She says 500 words requirement, no set maximum.

And yes, you post the story on here for people to read when the deadline hits. You do not read other people’s entries before you have written yours and posted it, that way the…[Read more]

@hybridlore

Yes, I do!

I have grapheme-color, month-to-color, spatial sequence, ordinal linguistic personification, a little sound-to-color, faint motion+touch-to-sound… Still figuring out that last one XD

And piano keys have colors too. That doesn’t even have a name, I think it’s an extension of grapheme-color.

If you need to ask questions…[Read more]

I would love to wake up this topic again. I never participated but I wanted to.

Tagging extra people: @the_lost-journal @ellette-giselle @raxforge @liberty @theshadow @calyhuge

I’ll just give a new short story prompt. And here it is:

Tell the story of a scar.

You can use new settings/characters or use characters from your own WIP, as long as…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings @loopylin

Thank you 🙃

@jonas

What is the tech level in this world? I don’t want to force a modern age character into a medieval setting without changing them up.

Ooohh, I can’t pick who to use… I want to use someone who is fresh and fits the adventure theme, but I feel as if I will last longer in this roleplay if the character is super comfortable to me.

@hybridlore

Lovely warm night colors, I quite like it. :] Do you have synesthesia too? A synesthete conversation probably already happened on this forum, but I can’t remember.

@theducktator

Yay! I’m not the only high schooler who still trick or treats! What are you going to be? I’m going as a flapper.

Oh wow, that is such a good idea. O.O I’m going as the princess Hornet from Hollow Knight.

@the_lost-journal

I’m sorry you worried – you do not need to, I assure you! 😁 It can sometimes feel like things are slowing down for good, but usually people are just busy in real life. This forum is not one of those forums which has slowed down since it began, fortunately. Lots of people are active right no even if they aren’t posting…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle
Is Collins saying we should all act like Darwinist survivors tho? Just because Katniss has a traumatized survivor mentality, doesn’t mean Collins thinks it’s a good thing.
I thought the evil government was about:

Desensitization – – – – dehumanizing others (the birth of the Hunger Games) – – – – now children are traumatized and…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Gotcha

 it’s all about doing whatever you must to survive. Then we have covid, and what happens? Americans make compromises with their freedom that should never have flown all in the name of survival

Yeah totally. A text, especially something that can be sloppy around the edges (like Hunger Games), can negatively affect the cu…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yeah I’m not a huge fan or critic of Hunger Games. A lot of the appeal for teens is drama/gore thrill, but to just dismiss it because the protagonist has an overwhelming survivor mind defeats the point of her character. You feel me?

@rae

Oof. I feel you a bit girl. My Dad has chronic Lyme’s. My big brother had to go to Mexico when he was two to take an experimental Lyme’s treatment to save his life. Thankfully it worked for him.

That’s crazy. And what makes a chronic illness even more detrimental is how the effects trickle down to different members of the family, whether phy…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

XD you mean me?? I guess I can sheepishly take that title 🤗

*Stitches the title into a cap and puts it on your head*

Hey that’s not what I meant! 😂 I meant I wanted a update on how much you are enjoying gravity falls, not that you needed to update to a new show! Have you finished? Is it still really good? What’s your fav…
