Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin

If you want to talk about emotional struggles, you are free to do that. But I think Ellette simply wanted to make a joke about how much she likes soccer, and so it makes sense for her to defend her love of the sport when you responded with negativity.

@hybridlore will someone have to pay for it tho? I’d hate for someone to have to do that…

Although…if I ever get to learn Saber fencing…*sighs*

@ellette-giselle

I wish I was athletic? XD

I like the slight burn that comes from steady running, but side pain tends to come first. I like to bike and hike, but (as some already mentioned) I’m in school and working a desk job. Which means most of the steady exercise I get is daily five-ten minute power walks crossing campus between classes.

@ellette-giselle I live in Florida! There’s like 0 mountains here! And barely any fields that aren’t either dangerous-insect-infested or wet and full of either alligators or the deadliest bacteria and amoebas out there.

NGL Florida is micro-Australia when it comes to that area of life.

My brother has two airsoft guns, but we…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle let me think……

I think it’s closer to ten actually.

It’s not so much the count as how close they are to each other. And everyone being dramatic about them, although that part isn’t exactly your fault lol

Also, I like the bonus section!

@ellette-giselle how many?

I found Deus Lamb’s email. Do y’all want me to contact him first?

Tbh, the Paralympics is the only thing I watch on television. XD

@ellette-giselle

Exactly! My brother still exercises all the time, and he’s stronger than me despite being younger. He enjoys wall climbing too. It’s really funny because he has broad shoulders and strong arms, but his feet are tiny.

I wish I could be more active, but my parents told me to stop jiu-jitsu for now because I need treatment first. *grumpy* Literally all I’m allowed to do is walk my dog.

@ellette-giselle

Yep, he’s in a wheelchair! He has a birth defect where his spinal cord developed weirdly and his legs are… partially paralyzed? I’m not sure what the term is.

And that is my explanation for having a couple wheelchair-bound characters in my stories, lol.

@ellette-giselle Ten minutes, then?

good lol, roughing him up is fine

@ellette-giselle well I walk on the treadmill on Wednesdays when my family goes to the rec center for my brother’s tae kwon do classes, so there’s that.

I also ride a bike and consider myself decently good at it, and rarely go fishing.

But my favorite sport is going outside with a net and catching anole lizards. No one counts that as a sport…

@freed_and_redeemed @ellette-giselle @I’mnotsure

Hey, do either of you (and/or someone else) have resources about PTSD based on actual interviews with WWII survivors? I can do my own research ofc, but just thought I’d ask. I know both of you are writing historical fiction about it.

@ellette-giselle hey! don’t be like that, we can’t all be murdering a character every 10 seconds.

lol in case you’re wondering this is a joke, I’m not actually offended.

@theducktator disc golf lol

They have that at my local recreation center.

@ellette-giselle

I’ve never been great at physical sports; the doctors say I have a lot of low vitamins/minerals. I’m a weakling, lol. But I played soccer for a while and it wasn’t bad. I even got a header in the last game. And I love watching wheelchair basketball because my brother plays.

@ellette-giselle I think the reason some of us are writers is because we didn’t wanna go out and do things. Sports included. LOL.
