Oh my word! That is so cool looking! You must post a picture when it’s done!!

That background is so detailed and three dimensional! :0 The perspective is really impressive.

And, once again, I absolutely love the twins drawing. 💛💙 Thank you so much! They’re so cute

Mel

Mel smiled as she gently grabbed the crow’s beak and pushed him back. He must be hungry, she thought. Then she faced the woman who had approached her and stuck out her bruised chin, trying to look tough.

“I’m not scared.”

Tired? Overwhelmed? Maybe. Confused? Sure. But scared? Never.

Runt tried to peck at Mel’s…[Read more]

Huntress

I mulled over this. Two children in the labyrinth. This was starting to get worrying.

The new girl–clearly also human, or at least a human-dominant hybrid like my brother or the Mann twins–left Sniper’s side and hugged the crow, appearing shy. Or, y’know, scared of an Argonite and Ornithiform.

Lucy…[Read more]

Foraging is fascinating. Definitely please tell us how the next bit goes!

OH MY WORD!! This is so cute!! Loopy has to see this!

are you taking requests by any chance….?

The picture doesn’t show! You’ll have to repost it if KP is working properly

@loopylin @keilah-h

Lucille

Lucy frowned. “It was my fault I kicked the wall. The crawlspace got angry and puked me out.”

Gabriel didn’t seem convinced. He opened his mouth, and Lucy interrupted him. “I’ve never been alone out here. The mist sorta reminds me of…[Read more]

Lucille

“Mhm.” Lucy pulled the hatchet out and hit the back of its head against her palm. “I didn’t use it, but maybe sometime.”

Gabriel’s eyes kept flickering away. It took a second to realize he was looking at Mel. The bright-eyed ginger girl had just recovered from the crow scuffle, and now she cuddled up under Runt’s ches…[Read more]

If I can actually make the candies, I will post pictures.

Ooooo. Yes, you should make those. And please take pictures. I’ve never tried or seen candies like that before, so I’d be curious to see that.

I figured. I should probably draw Baron with a cat, shouldn’t I? I’ve never actually drawn him smiling.

You could draw either, if doing so stri…[Read more]

Mel

Mel stood herself up and eyed the four adults suspiciously. She wasn’t sure how to feel about the bird man and the crocodile man, and the man Lucy was talking with had a strange mask, sort of like the lady Mel had met before. Suddenly feeling…[Read more]

Sniper

“Crocodile man,” the kid said, lookin’ up at me wondrously.

This was confusin’.

I flicked my tail and looked back at it, a bit sheepish. “What?”

Huntress and Soldier snickered at me. I gave them an annoyed look.

his brain has stopped working lol

Lucille
“I’ve been beaten up worse before!” Lucy bragged. She pointed at her eye. It was swollen, but she could see out of it easily. “This shiner isn’t too bad. I won the fight anyway. That’s the important part, right?
”

I would try your dandelion food. And playing a game with Marley sounds way more fun than playing normally.

The blossoms I processed to then bread and cook. I’m scared to try more than a bite of my creation because I feel like I might throw up honestly at my creation. Which is weird, because I’m usually very gun-ho about eating flo…

I don’t usually stalk this forum, but as the rest of KP is quiet today, I hopped in. That was splendid to read, like an opening of a middle grade book. Thank you for sharing the joy.

I’m going to go brew myself some berry tea.

Hellooo. :] Yeah it continued a little bit. Not too much

Lucille

In a split second, there was Gabriel.

His hands gripped Lucy’s shoulder, and his body tensed as if he was about to be struck by something.

His white mask shone through the fog, as sudden as a beacon, or eyes opening after a nightmare.

He was alive. Worried, too – a…[Read more]

hehe he’s so Australian. I love how I can hear the accent in his dialogue.

yesssss I know that’s why I love writing him hehe

(reminds me of another Australian crocodile…)

ooooh who?

also @loopy and @whalekeeper should I wait for @rae to get back into this or should I just continue writing?

Mel

Mel’s excited laughter turned into a startled shriek as something flew up beside them.

“Hello children!”

Momentarily distracted from the bread, Runt nipped at the bird man’s tail feathers, causing him to scream as well. In the chaos, Mel tried to grab the fishing pole bait from Lucy to steer them away from th…[Read more]

Soldier (haven’t written anything from his pov in a while so we’ll see how this goes)

We’d been wandering for a LONG time. Way too long!

After waking up and crossing the lake we’d found ourselves in a maze of hedges. Very boxed in. I didn’t like it! I was supposed to be FREE!

Something swooped far overhead. A crow!…[Read more]

Lucille

Lucy thought for a moment. She jumped down from the crow’s back.

Runt’s nest was literally poorer than the other nest from before; there weren’t any jewelry or household items lodged in the branches. But there were some pieces of ribbon, twine, and something that looked suspiciously like long strands of hair.…[Read more]

but did you put it in the wrong forum? or is this a way or telling us you need prayer because you’ve started to become too concerned about your weight and food habits?

Huntress

“I’m surprised they’ve lived this long,” Gabriel looked over to Sniper and Soldier, still both passed out.
“Oh, trust me, Sniper’s normally fighting right beside me when these things happen. It’s unusual for him to not wake up at the sound of a gunshot. He must’ve been really tired.” I said. “Now Soldier, I can…[Read more]

so my father wants me to inherit his title and academy.

What is your father’s title? (And yours, by extension)

Why don’t your father and sister get along?

I don’t have many hobbies since some things aren’t practical when you’re stationed for war.

Is there an active war going on? How did you get into that station?

In general, do you like…[Read more]

What an adorable kitty! Is it celebrating St. Patrick’s day?

Congratulations on the contest!

I know I am so behind, but let me just say, scammer or no scammer, the complement still stands and I’ll back it up! I really do love your art style and it is really good. I hope that you do all the art for the book when you get it published!

Also, the night fury/ mech one is AMAZING!!!

@elishavet-pidyon

Ahhhh! Gandalf and…[Read more]

When you hum, what type of tunes do you gravitate towards? Jigs, waltzes, instrumental, lyrical?

“I get classic folk songs stuck in my head against my will. Merlin is at fault. Willy O’ Winsbury haunts me, I tell you. He has a habit of singing whenever he feels like something bad or challenging is going to happen, so I learn all of the cha…[Read more]

I’ll have to listen to it! When my headphones charge after a whole day of listening to tunes, haha.

Sennin, what kind of hybrid are you?

Also, how do you feel about the rulers of Staten, if you don’t mind me asking? What’s the political atmosphere?

@rae

Are you and Nahim similar ages?

How would you describe yourself in the conte…[Read more]

Questions for Mandin:

What do you think is your greatest strength?

How easily do you trust people?

Who would you consider your best friend and why?

How do you feel about your family?

What did you fear as a child? What do you fear now?

If my brain sounds fried, it’s because it’s 2 AM.

Meh, don’t worry about it. My brain is mush half the time anyway

I gave a little description/intro of Cosmo on the last page, when I answered Keilah’s questions. Other than that, you should know he is a young teenager in the modern day.

What motivates you to get up in the morning…[Read more]

Alright! Hm. *Calling upon the memory hall with statues of your characters* How about Mandin? He’s interesting. And I have to admit I don’t know much about him, which must be remedied.

You can either interview Cosmo, one of my other characters per your choice, or none at all. Up to you.

Me likes d art. Both awesomes. ☺️

Besides, this was a fun topic, and I think there’s plenty of reason to bring it back.

Anyone want to buddy up with me? @loopylin @elishavet-pidyon @koshka…[Read more]

Thank you for the sympathy <3 I appreciate it

I’m in a bit of a daze right now from taking care of my siblings and not getting enough sleep. My mum and I will be busy taking care of logistics, so, uh… yeah. Hoping my typing instincts are good enough for…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon love it!

Glad you get the scammer situation taken care of!

Your art is beautiful in the skill you use and in the way it expresses emotion. Just… Awesome work. 😀 ❤️

Huntress

“Huntress, he’s focused on me right now. Even after you hurt him, he’s ignoring you as if he doesn’t notice you in the fog. Try to get close to him, I’ll—” Gabriel dodged the creature’s claws again, attempting to distract it.

I instinctively faded my colors out to match the fog, even though my clothes and weapons wouldn’t fade…[Read more]

@rae I know this is said constantly, but your coloring skills are so amazing and they just keep getting better. Also that mech is super impressive I could never 🧡

How are you all doing?? How’s life and writing going??
(tagging, but if I didn’t tag you it means I forgot, not that I don’t want to hear from you XD)

@whalekeeper @loopylin @theducktator

@rae

@loopylin

@elishavet-pidyon

Why didn’t I ask you guys sooner!!!! The good thing is I have only heard of about 10% of these, so there may be a chance some of them work!!!! Yippy! I shall listen though them while I clean the house later today. Thank you all so much!!!!!!!

wow! I love that one in the frame!!

@rae

Actually I thought it did kinda look like you!

I like the one of the little girl too!!!

Huntress

Gabriel fought with the creature for a minute as I tried my best to avoid being struck by them both.

It was clear that we were at a distinct disadvantage–it could sense us through the fog, whether it was using sight, or hearing, or something else weird like infrared sense.

“You said we gotta go for the tail?” I asked.

Gabriel…[Read more]
