Hmm… That is a good point about Elsa’s powers. As far as we can tell once she learns to control her powers, she just seems to will things to happen.

I think I do want to stick with the idea for Alan having visions of magic capturing him. I think this adds a thematic element that will make Alan’s struggle more real without…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

good work!!

wait… your hand cramps from writing? Mine never did that. I thought it was a myth.

but I also thought unions burning peoples eyes was a myth until my friend and I were cooking stir fry and she started tearing up really bad while cutting them. 🤣

@whalekeeper @theducktator @ellette-giselle

My progress today. I wrote down on sticky notes everything I knew so far about the plot.

Pink notes are what I already had planned from Alan’s perspective when I started this. Green is Martha’s Perspective. The blue and yellow at the top are some alternative ideas I had for the beginning. All the…[Read more]

@linus-smallprint

oh my goodness. She’s a horrible mother. 😂

(and I feel bad for laughing)

I was actually thinking about the magic. It seems to be thought based. Like yours. At first it seems emotion based, but then when I rewatched “let it go” to see if I was right, it seems more thought based. Whatever it is, we aren’t told how she’s c…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Yes, I have seen Frozen, and I think I know what you are getting at. Elsa, like Alan, worries about her powers and hurting others with them but needs to learn not to push others away. If you go back to when you were asking us which characters are like our own, Whaley, you will notice Elsa was one of the characters…[Read more]

I’m sorry, there are just too many uses for Disney Princess quotes. I want to watch Tangled again, just to remember all of Flynn Rider’s lines. My quote arsenal is running low.

Oh goodness.

He’s not a believer but seems to be asking the right questions recently

That’s a good sign. :-]

Is he older or younger than you?

He is a year younger than me, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at us. He is heavier (due to exercise and being a ravenous teenage boy), and he’s in a wheelchair, so it’s hard to guess who is taller.

@ellette-giselle

My brother loses his steam over many inconsequential details.

Me: 🎵 It’s funny how some distance makes everything seem smaaaaaalll 🎵

@whalekeeper

oh goodness.
there is so much wrong with that song.
😂

@ellette-giselle

have you ever seen Frozen?

✨ Let it gooOooOoOOoooOo  ✨ *Throws back my hair dramatically* I sing that song whenever my siblings are unnecessarily argumentative.

@linus-smallprint

Do you ever have that problem?

Oh yeah, all the time. I’d say to write it down anyway, because there is always some reason why you had the idea in the first place.

Every idea has a nugget of interest behind it, and if you feel some appeal despite knowing it won’t work, write it down. Then think about why it appealed to you…[Read more]

@hybridlore thank you!!

heyo! Just wanted to come back here and ask for some prayer for my uncle. He’s been having some really bad internal issues and is in a lot of pain.

He’s not a believer but seems to be asking the right questions recently, so prayer for both his physical condition and his spiritual search would be appreciated!

@linus-smallprint

hey, weird question. I was thinking about your magic system……

have you ever seen Frozen?
(I wouldn’t recommend the movie, but I have seen it before and I was thinking about something in reference to it.)

@hybridlore

yeah I missed that with them having won. But maybe that was just me.

oh okay! No problem. Sorry for the confusion.

@whalekeeper

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

so, like, really chill about most stuff and puts an “lol” at virtually everything?

I’m a very “tell it like it is” kind of person, and I also don’t like getting into confrontations online or even something that resembles a confrontation, so I try to be l…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal

(I asked this question because I met someone who used to be a Protestant, and she said she used to hate catholics, she said that she thought they could sin and do what ever they wanted and then go to reconciliation and everything would be fine… that is FAR from the truth!)

Oh wow. I think reconciliation could be helpful in p…[Read more]

@esther-c

I enjoyed it, but one question.

“Me too.” Easton walked across the room and gave his sister a tight hug. “Thanks so much, Hallie. Today was amazing.”

She smiled up at him. “You’re welcome.” Anything for an amazing brother like you.

Are they always this nice to each other?

@the_lost-journal

I don’t see why the priest has to be involved. I could go into this and why I believe it’s unbiblical, but this is a time when I’m not going to. Honestly, are you going to convert me to catholicism? No. Am I going to convert you to Reformed Baptist? No.
I find this topic really interesting, enjoyable, and even helpful, don’t…[Read more]
