Barnes

“I don’t not care, if that’s what you’re suggesting,” Barnes said without looking to see who it was. “I’m not a nihilist.”

The walls rustled around them, and Barnes turned her head to scan the smaller hedges.

Some of the maze was smaller and narrower than the rest, like little mini gardens encased in the rest of t…[Read more]

Barnes

Barnes meandered along the edge of the labyrinth. She stood behind the rest of the crowd, almost as if she were part of the background. Her pale skin easily matched some of the stone decorations along the directionless path. That was the only similarity between her and the place.

Home. It felt far away, although logically, Barnes must…[Read more]

“Even if you aren’t fit to fill a role yet, that doesn’t mean you can’t ever fill that role. And as for you, Cassius, I assume Leander is your prince. Therefore, even if he isn’t fit for leadership, you should still respect his wishes.” Gabriel sighed, why exactly, it wasn’t clear.

I’ve got to go to…[Read more]

aight, gimme ten minutes

@rae

That’s impressive. I’d never be able to do that.

Don’t even remember how I did it lol, I guess it just clicked in my brain.

Agreed. I remember I had a youth group thing called Olympians every Wednesday night at our old Church, and I was six when I started it. All my homeschooled friends didn’t have much trouble reading (I still strug…

Oh also idk if you’re interested but do you know of drawingwiffwaffles on youtube? I used to watch her art videos all the time but she was gone for a really long time for health issues and she made a video about it recently. She’s a Christian and I think she had one of the best perspectives I’ve heard on the topic.

I might have just provoked Leander, not sure yet….👀👀👀

The evil side of me really hopes I did

aren’t we waiting for others?

Yes, but we can enter the maze if you like

“I can handle the truth, but I doubt if you truly can like you say you can.” Gabriel held up a finger to shush Leander as he opened his mouth to protest. “I will prove it to you. I find you to be a l…[Read more]

Also, i taught myself how to read, so the exeperience of someone teaching you in unfamiliar to me.

That’s impressive. I’d never be able to do that.

I keep wanting to tag you as @the_potato-reporter 😆

Sorry for taking SOOOOO lonnnnnng to reply… 😅

Don’t worry about it. It happens for the littlest and the biggest reasons to everyone.

@mineralizedwritings

I’ll remember to pray for you!

Anyways, every step I take I take two backwards

Yeah, I can relate. Last summer I had Lyme’s and Legionella really bad, and as soon as it appeared I was on the mend, everything got worse, and it turned out I had Bartonella on top of it. Thankfully, I appear to be over everything now…except the…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal Everyone I guess!!

oh yeah! Huntress and Leander would make an interesting duo.

@loopylin all righty, here we go!

any character in specific you want me to drop in, from what you’ve seen of all my guys? Could be anyone from any time or any roleplay/other forum. I remember them all.

@rae yeah. Also, i taught myself how to read, so the exeperience of someone teaching you in unfamiliar to me.

(The tutoring was more for math and general thinking skills. He calls it “brain training.” But he has a lot of books in his office on the subject of how to properly teach reading, since many school curriculums don’t quite hit the mark,…[Read more]

@keilah-h

As a person who knows a lot about phonemes and stuff cause of my very meticulous tutor, I get it, but I don’t know if all the letter sounds and stuff will confuse people.

Yes, I was a little worried about that. My Grandma taught me how to read, and she also was very meticulous. I tried to write the scene as the closest thing to what I r…[Read more]

@rae

I vaguely remember that. This new scene is really cute; although it might be a little confusing for casual readers. As a person who knows a lot about phonemes and stuff cause of my very meticulous tutor, I get it, but I don’t know if all the letter sounds and stuff will confuse people.

@whalekeeper @keilah-h @the_lost-journal @ellette-giselle @highscribeofaetherium

I think I tagged the right people

Do you remember the beginning scene of A Visitor in the Night from The Baron Chronicles where Simeon is reading something? So, I just spent 27 minutes changing that scene because the thing he reads is from an actual book that isn’t…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings

I’m rather too ill to participate in much of anything

You okay? I hope it’s nothing too serious 🙁

@theducktator thanks!!
