What are your thoughts on catholic reconciliation? (For those who don’t know, reconciliation is where catholics go (supposed to be at least every month) to confess their sins. And then they are forgiven for them.) And what questions do you have. (That definition is the most simple version, there is more to it.)

I believe every C…[Read more]

Heya, please pray for a quick recovery for my brother in the emergency room. He has a shunt for his medical condition, and while at therapy, they heard a crack in his neck. It’s possible the cord connecting the shunt to the rest of his body has snapped.

He’s doing fine. I think he’s more concerned that he can’t flex his abs. *Rolls eyes* But it…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yay!!

I found a round about way to get access!! (Don’t ask)

Should I be concerned? lol 🤪

Everette (I think) asks if Sara knows who Jesus was. Now, unless you have a very different theology than I do, I believe it’s who Jesus “is” not “was”.

Good point—I’ll have to change that.

Also, unless I missed something, the last we had wit…

@linus-smallprint

Love how you always have illustrations on hand, by the way. XD

@keilah-h

Thanks, lollll

(I just realized I try to match the other person’s tone, that person being you)

@ellette-giselle

oh my word!! It’s so accurate tho!! That is a total Leo expression! And Rory is… yeah, being Rory. 😂

😁 Hehehe, I’m glad it has the right feeling, even if it’s cartoony. I felt like it was right to add Leo because he’s pla…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Could you expand more on what you mane by that, please?

I like to write down every idea I have so that I don’t have to contain everything in my head and forget it. So, the opposite of Ellette. (Why are we always the opposite? Why??)

I organize the ideas by topic (plot, worldbuilding, etc) very deliberately. I’m trying to…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Great, thanks!! Yeah, I was trying to come up with something for the studying that would be interesting, but I’m not sure if I’ll change it next draft. I wanted to make something weird happen with the testing – the no answer changes being one of the first things I came up with – but I don’t know if it makes sense with the tests…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

*Shivers* Ooh, I love outline brainstorming.

Do you have any habits that help you think more efficiently?

By this, do you mean a method of organizing your ideas? Because that’s my favorite way of making brainstorming quick and easy, while also productive.

@ellette-giselle @koshka

I didn’t draw your characters very accurately. (They are both supposed to be older, Leo probably doesn’t have goggles.) But I remember reading a section of the roleplay and having a specific image in my head, so I drew it, and here it is. Rory stands, Leo is on the stool.

I’ll have to get that class moving, I suppose.

@keilah-h

What’s with the neck thing?

Yeah lol, that’s my fault.

Aaand this is not what this topic is for. I apologize for rambling, Shadow. 😅

@ellette-giselle

Oh ho ho, well…

The thing is, I can’t remember everything that’s in Castle in the Sky, but the rest of the Studio Ghibli films have a lot of Japanese mythological spirits. Beings like No-Face, Totoro, or Mononoke are all considered spiritual powers. I personally do not mind these kinds of characters in literature, as they…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Oh, Studio Ghibli is amazing. I have a bunch of the movies on my shelf right now. Which have you watched?

@ellette-giselle

Give yourself a foundation to build off of, otherwise you’re just building castles in the sky, and only Miyazaki can do that. 😉

Hehehe, I see what you did there

Alrighty, I read over the next two chapters and decided to post them both today, but after this, you can expect to get only one a week… unfortunately, I only have six more chapters after this. 🙁 I guess that means I need to write more haha.

Without further ado, here’s the link! (It’s the same one as last time &#x1f…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Awesome! Thank you so much! That was something I really tried to pay attention to, because I come from a Christian family and I’ve never known a time where my parents didn’t know God… so it’s something I have to think about, how someone who’s never been exposed to this kind of thing would react to it. If you or anyone else has…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

Awesome! Thanks so much for reading it! I’m looking forward to hearing what you think of the rest of it.

Good point, I hadn’t noticed that, but it totally makes sense. I’m planning to rewrite the first chapter anyway, so I’ll try to take that into account when I do.

Wow, that’s terrible. That kind of thing hasn’t happened to…[Read more]

@theducktator

Yeah . . . @kathleenramm You okay?

@esther-c

Yayyy!!! The moodboards look great!! 😊
