Wyoh, I hope the tags on all your clothes never stop being annoyingly scratchy

That’s awesome! Can’t wait to read about her

I can’t talk about it because I like to leave new characters to simmer for a week or so before I mess with them…

You just love teasing me don’t you

@power

Wait! So, when God said to be fruitful and multiply, he wasn’t only talking to the berry bushes and mathematicians?! 😋

An idea for your story. Instead of your love interest being the gladiator, have him be a surgeon/medtech of the gladiators.

Okay, yeah! I do like that whole dynamic a lot, not sure if I’ll incorporate it or not, but t…[Read more]

I am also fine with most magic, including Harry Potter, though I know a lot of Christians are not. I’m also okay with some swearing, but not a lot. Stormlight Archive has about the maximum amount of swearing that I’m willing to read. As for sexual content, I’ve read To Kill a Mockingbird, (it was amazing), which is about my limit.

Also,…

This looks fun! I love discussing books with people!

One thing I like to do with book clubs is read the same book at the same time, but not the same chapters. That way everyone can read at their own pace. (I always read ahead anyways lol)

Yes. I always read ahead too.😂

I have some ideas on how we’d decide which books to read — I thi…

Overheard at dance: “He gave me really creepy vibes! And he poured his milk before his cereal!” “What? Only psychopaths do that!”

All you do is get on voice chat, then share your screen for the most part. I’ll be busy too. I have work most days now, though only in the first half of the day, and I’ll be serving a mission not long from now. That’s awesome that your doing karate!

Maybe we could figure something out in the near future, but I don’t know. I’ll just say…[Read more]

“Drop your weapons or I won’t hesitate to attack.” Came a deep voice ahead of them. At first, he couldn’t see the forms around the dark corner. Fortunately though, his eyes were used to seeing through dark waters, and they adjusted quickly.

A bellowing laugh escaped his chest when he eventually saw the threat. “Atta…[Read more]

Yeah, I do have discord. I don’t use it very much but I have it. You can stream things on discord?

Yeah! I don’t know why I haven’t thought of it before. Although, the question is whether it will stream well, but I’d say it’s worth a shot if you’re up for it!

@thearcaneaxiom @jonas

Perfect!

Here’s one

@jonas

I would also say that it depends on the villain’s role. Sometimes you need a sympathetic villain for the story to work. But yeah, in and of themselves, a non-sympathetic villain isn’t a bad thing.

True, of course ignoring the fact that a non-sympathetic villain by definition, is bad😂 (Someone was bound to do this, so I thought it might as…[Read more]

@jonas

This is a very insightful (and off topic) conversation lol. Maybe we should create a new thread. (There probably is one already, actually.)

Yeah 😂

@keilah-h

True, anti-heros are separate from villains. The mere fact that he can be considered an anti-hero can push him over to likeable, though not always.

@princesachronicle22

Yeah, some of these villains you can root for for different reasons. Some are sympathetic with sad backgrounds, others and just intriguing.

@keilah-h @thearcaneaxiom

Half of these references won’t be recognized but I do happen to have a list of villain’s I root for

-Jacks from Caraval

-Darth Vadar/Anakin from Star Wars

-Loki from Marvel

-Kylo Ren also Star Wars

-Katherine from Heartless

@keilah-h

Ooh, I want to see Abraham Lincoln with a flamethrower!

@keilah-h

Well I’m sort of referencing the first character you mentioned, but I’m also speaking broadly. There’s plenty of stories where people root for the villain, despite them not being redeemable.
