Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin

@quicksilverwyvern

Flashbacks are useful literary devices. They can drop hints of mystery, clues to the story, or explain secrets.

Just have a good idea of how you’re using them in the book before you dive in. I don’t know how many times I’ve started writing something only to realize half-way through that it didn’t fit with the story. So, are…[Read more]

Ari

Fairy land? A strange turn of phrase, as if there was a definite destination, as if world’s didn’t simply overlap. Moons and wind and monstrous slimy creatures came to mind. His lips twitched.

In a placid voice he he addressed the arrow head in his hand.

“I don’t suppose fairies are so particular about who bakes the…[Read more]

If someone made him food, he’d invite them in and might try for a hug. ;] Emphasis on might. He doesn’t know if anyone would accept his hugs.

@ellette-giselle

You’re fine! I’ll see if Jasper wants to do something. I think he would stay quiet at this point and let someone else speak if they wish. But maybe I can come up with…[Read more]

Moth

It seemed best to take note of when Ari grew dark. Once again, he did not care to say much about himself, but some of his short, clipped exclamations did not seem to come from a place of peace. Passion — and something like anguish — shone out of him in short bursts, like sunlight half blocked by a hand.

Moth would und…[Read more]

Ellis is completely missing the point of Ari’s question. I apologize

No need. Ellis understood the assignment perfectly.

Ari

Ellis’s shot went wide. Ari waiting for him to start knock and draw again, then gently nudged his arm into a better position.

“Look down the shaft at the target. That will help.” He watched as E…[Read more]

*uninteligable screaming*

Careful, that’s bad for your throat. XD

@ellette-giselle

I have a London Fog too! Probably going to wear it a ton this winter. Gotta ward off the anemia chills.

@elishavet-pidyon

thanks for being the polite one and giving the RPs.

*Tips hat* No problem. It’s ma job.

@ellette-giselle

Well, based on those rps, Wolf can do something now if he wants to! Or Wilhelm and Jasper can continue interacting. Do you have a preference?

instead of try to scroll through a million RPs. 🤣

Luckily I have that google doc,…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @loopylin

Ah, my poor little boy. Don’t worry child, you’ll be fine.

Ari

“No.” The word lept from him in a breath. His gaze went wide. Hands gripped, knuckles white.

“No. Never. It wouldn’t do any good. We will…go…just the same.”

Death. The void, as Father says. So unnatural. And if the Scroll is to be believed…

The silver…[Read more]

Moth

The young archer continued to prove his skill, and the other two boys watched. He showed no signs of straining, for he shot smoothly and without physical complaint.

It was easy to see why Ari loved this. It looked as easy for him as breathing.

“It is just a saying. A different way to say my shot was good fate,” Moth…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @loopylin

Ari

His body tensed with confused alarm at Moth’s comment.

“Archery is more by instinct than anything else. You focus on a specific point you want to hit, and then line up the arrow with that point.” He absently knocked and drew as he spoke. It whipped home as he glanced back at Moth, then at Ellis. “What is…[Read more]

@littlemisssunshine

I’ve written some myself. What kind of poetry do you like to write?

Ah! Another poet, I see. I tend to write stuff with a strong pattern, even if that pattern isn’t always as clear as a rhyme scheme (although I do tend to use rhyme, meter, alliteration, all those good things). It mainly just depends on the texture of the poem I…[Read more]

@littlemisssunshine

I would love one day, when I have an actual job, to wear outfits with vintage elegance that slacks naturally have.

The dream, for sure.

I WANT A TRENCH COAT SO BAD WDYM YOU HAVE 3?!

I acquired them almost accidentally. I’m just as surprised as you are. XD

Any tips for thrifting?

This might be generic advice, but my best tip i…[Read more]

@littlemisssunshine

This is what my character Enid said

Heeyyy, we both have a character named Enid! That’s so cool!

@littlemisssunshine

What would you do if I said I was a stalker?

I would be flattered but also concerned. Hehe.

Panic! At The Disco

They have that album called Pretty Odd that I like! I’ve only listened to some of it though. They touched on baroque pop, which is sick. I love baroque pop.

Loreena McKennitt

Oh yeeaah! I just looked her up. I…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Wolf can speak if he wishes! Or walk away and start training. Lol. Here are the most recent posts in our character group:

Jasper

“Every weapon strikes my fancy.” Jasper chuckled, shaking his head at himself. “When I wish to distract myself from something, I experiment with new weapons. I have a preference for the one on my hip.…

@littlemisssunshine

Greetings and welcome! I write middle-grade fantasy, youth fiction, and a smattering of poetry. I’m also a historical clothing/culture nerd, hand-crafting enthusiast, and full-time university student (which makes it a little difficult to keep up with the other stuff, but alas. Tis my life.).

My current WIP is about a…[Read more]

@littlemisssunshine

It’s nice to meet you. :] Always good to see a new face.

I’m REALLY excited to be here. I totally wasn’t checking my inbox obsessively to see if I’d got my account details yet😅.

Are you a stalker? XD Just kidding. Hehe… I was the same. I’m sorry if there was a delay because we couldn’t set up new accounts for a while.

What…[Read more]
