MineralizedWritings

@loopylin

Awesome! I want to write between 2-3k a week. I’ve noticed sometimes I write a lot more and sometimes I write nothing for weeks on end. If I can just learn to be consistent, that would help.

So I’ll have a weekly word count and you can focus on your daily time

Ellis

As Remington scurried away to get water, Ellis chatted to Callum as he led him outside. While not as loud as Remington, Ellis did very much enjoy talking.

“No need to be embarrassed. I do the same thing from time to time. Sort of. When I get visions I tend to fall over. I don’t go faint, I just can’t see or feel my s…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Sure that sounds great! I will probably have the same goal as before. And don’t worry about the long break. I think we both needed it, or at least I did. What’s your word count goal?

@loopylin

I would like to formally apologize for not keeping you accountable for three months. But I was recently reminded of this because I want to be held accountable too. I have a word count to reach every week. Can we do this again, but like, both of us at the same time?

@loopylin

Remington

“That sounds like a good idea. How about you take him, and I’ll fetch him some water?”

Callum’s head hung low, and Remington took the opportunity to shake him gently so it looked like he was nodding.

Huntress

The tunnel stretched out in front of us. This one was carved by something, or someone, not a mere animal like the one that’d taken Rosalind. Whether that someone was still alive was a question I didn’t exactly want to think about right now.

I checked out the book on the table. It was old, its cover worn but probably not as…[Read more]

@loopylin yesss 17 sounds awesome

@whalekeeper @keilah-h @rae

I vote we do 17 sometime soon because that sounds like it could give Mel a rest, but anything is good with me. Or we could combine them.

Mel

Mel sniffled a bit, staring at the ground in embarrassment. She shuffled her feet and then looked up at Lucy again, about to say something else, when she suddenly stopped. She…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Huntress has a pair of pistols I think. Sniper gave up his rifle of course but might still have a smaller gun on him, idk.

Not sure what Soldier has. A shotgun and/or rocket launcher is his typical weapon but that would be pretty obvious to everyone else. He might just be using plain old claws.

@whalekeeper

i love those they’re amazing

@loopylin @keilah-h @rae

More labyrinth memes to pass your time

I love O Brother Where Art Thou

Lucille

“That’s okay. Those are natural bodily secretions,” Lucy murmured. She looked down at her admittedly already dirty shirt, and wiped it off with her own handkerchief.

@loopylin

Thank you for the useful ideas. I like 1, 2, 8, and 9 especially. We can also use the need for food as a motive to get stuck in these situations.

It’s funny that Rallascant is his own separate option

I have generated more ideas to add to your list:

1. Hall of mirrors challenge where the characters have to navigate their way past m…[Read more]

For funsies and to keep the lore consistent

Rallascant

“…I’ll try to help as I can.”

Rallascant’s rabbit ears perked up as he heard the cursed word. Technically, he was there already. Summoned. He was under no obligation to actually show himself. He sniffed at the air and then dug up another dandelion root to nibble on. He watched things unf…[Read more]

Not that we need this at the moment, but here’s some possible future conflict ideas because I’m in a brainstormy mood.

1. The group finds Mel’s door back home and they realize it won’t help anyone else get home except her (Mel and Lucy still think they’re from the same world)
2. The group finds the giant’s garden
3. The basilisk goes hunting again

Mel
Mel stopped trying to hold it in and cried quietly into Lucy’s shoulder. She couldn’t tell if the grown-ups had obeyed Lucy’s command to close their eyes, but she felt comforted by the idea. Lucy squeezed a bit tighter. This was better than stinky crow feathers.
After a couple minutes which felt much longer, her…[Read more]

It’s probably a good thing that Rallascant doesn’t actually know what guns are
