@bekreations Ahh, cool! Which is your favorite Halo song? Mine is either Library Suite or Truth and Reconciliation.
Do you have a favorite Pixar soundtrack? Mine is probably Finding Dory
You Me & Gravity is from a game called Planet Coaster, and it is one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard.
Funny how much we have in common with the…[Read more]

@sleepwalkingmk That’s what I love about Kapeefer literature: Tension and hilarity at the same time. 😀
Actually he’d be better at being a henchman, but yeah
NOT UNTIL TUESDAY! ;-P

@bekreations What kind of soundtracks and filmscores do you like? I mostly listen to Pixar soundtracks, along with the music from Halo (even though I’ve never played that game), the Lord of the Rings (haven’t watched it XD ), and Studio Ghibli (have watched some of those 😛 ).
Have you heard of the album You, Me & Gravity?

@mnvalentine Yes, I was laughing, too, as I wrote it. It’s another one of my favorite parts XD

By the way, I really loved your poem “Autistic”! That was really beautiful.
Thank you!! 😉

@sam-kowal Thanks. That’s okay. I probably should ask someone like @daeus shouldn’t I?
Oh, wait…I think I just did. 😀

The GIF-Hiders: An Easter Story
Part Eight: Up a Tree
Having just hidden a Star Trek GIF, Skredder suddenly lifted her head. “Earthquake,” she simply said.
Everyone looked at her. “What?” said Valentine.
“Earthquake! An earthquake’s coming!” Skredder repeated.
“She’s right! I feel it, too!” called Catwing from a tree branch.
“But earth…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira I think it’s really interesting that there’s an eighteenth-century English dictionary that lists dragons as “now rare!” 😀 And the Bible does mention unicorns, so possibly? There’s not much certainty as to what kind of animal the Bible was talking about, and some say it might have been rhinoceros, but those actually have two ho…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira But, if you like, you could just imagine that I go around yelling “Sylvester – Sylvester!” all the time. 😀 😀 😀 Maybe I know someone named Sylvester and he’s missing? So I call him all the time, but he never answers.
Which explanation do you prefer?

@dekreel Actually I read your post in my email and didn’t even see the italics before answering. 😀 The way the line is structured puts the most emphasis on the second syllable, while the fourth and sixth syllables have a little less emphasis and the eight syllable has the least emphasis besides the non-accented syllables in between. (At l…[Read more]

@rochellaine Oh, I just put the italics there to let you know what the difference was. So really I meant it would look like this:
“When it threw fearsome flames at me.”

Rochellaine replied to the topic I Believe in Dragons in the forum Poetry Critiques 8 years, 6 months ago
@dekreel I don’t know…putting that much emphasis on “it” doesn’t sound quite right, do you think? The second syllable in that line is the one with the most emphasis in the entire line, so I’d feel strange putting all the force on an ambiguous word like “it.”

Rochellaine replied to the topic I Believe in Dragons in the forum Poetry Critiques 8 years, 6 months ago
@ariel-ashira Yeah. The thing is, I actually believe dragons are real. 😀 But I do understand they’re looked upon as fantasy creatures. As I said before, I was intending it to be a comic poem, but accidentally made it serious, so that’s probably what the problem with that is.
*giggles* Um, that’s a quote from one of my favorite books. It’s…[Read more]

@rochellaine Well done!! I love the parable you used! 😀
The one thing I would change is instead of “When fearsome flames it threw at me,” I would say, “When it threw fearsome flames at me.” Unless you want it to be elegant, in which case feel free to ignore that suggestion 😉

Rochellaine replied to the topic I Believe in Dragons in the forum Poetry Critiques 8 years, 6 months ago
@ariel-ashira @sam-kowal Haha! Guess I can’t escape from my comical side in poem writing. 😀 Part of the reason might be it was originally intended to be a comical explanation of why I believe in real dragons, but then I turned the dragons into figurative beasts and so thought I changed it to serious.
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
But does no o…[Read more]

@ethryndal Oh my. But now I’m wondering…was it Freda who was in a dream all along? And it’s really Bessy that has to rescue her? Was she dreaming a “dream within a dream?”
