Oh yes, Portals! I should read more of it. The bit I read was delightful.

I probably should not be as comforted by that as I am.

Published authors have probably felt the same about their stuff. If that’s not comforting, I don’t know what is. 😛

And I spelled it differently, so there. XD

Problem solved

What project are you working on?

Good job, friend 👍

What’s your favorite word biome so far?

I love collecting ideas from novels published between from the 1910s-50s. Mostly 40s and 50s. I keep notes from them in a notebook and I’ve done this for months; it’s a lot of fun. I often collect dialogue because there’s something very identifiable about fictional dialogue from that ti…[Read more]

Watching to make sure you’re held accountable 👀

1. Hmm, sounds like Pride and Prejudice.

3. Dracula?

4. My best guess is King Lear, although that’s a play and not a book. Still, the ‘Tom Fool’ sounds close to ‘Poor Tom.’

10. Is it Screwtape Letters?

2) Edmund from Prince Caspian

6) One of the Feechiefolk from The Secret of the Swamp King

9) Morley the cooper from Sir Kendrick and the Castle of Bel Lione

10) Screwtape from The Screwtape Letters

I only know 8, because if I am correct, it is from one of my absolute favorite short stories. Is number 8 from The Wooing of Sophelia Stupe, said by Ollister Pembrick?

Get ready for some random ideas

1. Pride and Prejudice (something tells me it’s from something else, but I might be right)

2. Sassy. Hmm. Is this the part in Fahrenheit 451 where Montag talks with Clarisse?

3. The only wolf story I can remember off the top of my head is The Wolf Wilder. This probably isn’t even a wolf-focused story,…[Read more]

Sniper

The creature moved much faster than we’d initially seen it move and swiped our weapons outta our hands with its front claws. Then it grabbed Rosalind and charged off with her.

Emmerich ran to chase it. I held him back. “Wait,” I growled. “You saw how fast that thing ran when he decided to attack us. You’ll never catch up with…[Read more]

Hey girl!! It’s good to see you around. :] And good to hear you’re doing well.

You finished it??

Congrats on hunkering down and finishing the draft!! That’s crazy… I can’t believe there’s a full version of your first book out there. You have to get on here when it’s done so I can read it.

You haven’t hurt November too much,…[Read more]

Lol. I think I’m gonna go for dangerous.

Emmerich

Emmerich’s grip tightened on his sword’s handle. He moved in front of Rosalind, preparing for any attacks from the creature.

A moment passed in which the creature stared at the group and the group stared back at the creature. In the next moment, the creature moved with a speed its p…[Read more]

A pet dragon?? That’s so cool! How big is it? What does it look like when it’s not disguised?

Everett stares absently for a moment before replying. “He’s approximately the size of a seven story building, if each story is fifteen feet in height. He’s spiky and white, and his teeth are crooked. And the horns on his head… they are als…[Read more]

Hii! I’m sorry, it’s been a while. I suddenly got busy with extra school stuff, but I hope to reply faster when summer comes.

“Oh, thank you! Sure. Are you a journalist?”

Hmm, I suppose I’m being a journalist for this particular moment. Have you ever been interviewed by a journalist, at any time other than now?

“Depends on the word.…

Huntress

“There is a creature,” Rosalind pointed to something lumbering through the trees.

“What is that?” I asked as it got closer. It was huge, and pale-colored, with long legs. It moved fairly slow, so it didn’t seem predatory….yet.

Sniper’s tail lashed and his talons tensed in anticipation, either of a fight or of a ter…[Read more]

Lol, it’s okay, take as much time as you need.

Rosalind

Sniper and Huntress explained their birth planets, but Rosalind and Emmerich only became more confused. Sniper made the assertion that they were from different galaxies, then said, “But what matters is that we’re ‘ere, now, and neither of us knows where here is. We’re gonna h…[Read more]

Sniper

“That is impossible. You have never even heard of Earth? Where do you come from?”

“She’s from Lygon. Born on one of its moons.” I nodded to Huntress.  “And I’m from Staten.”

They still didn’t seem to understand what that meant.

I lashed my tail. “Never mind. If I ‘ad to guess, you’…[Read more]

I didn’t set you up for much else

Wren

She scribbled this down.

“And in that time, have there been any accidents or emergencies on school campus that you witnessed or were a part of?”

Wren

This last comment got an eyebrow raise from Wren, but she pretended not to be bothered.

“Yes, of course. I won’t even ask your name.”

She uncapped her pen, and flipped to a fresh page in her notebook. She thought for a moment how much easier it would be if she had brought Veronica with her to record, but her helper also…[Read more]

Wren Tallow

Perched at the top of the bleachers carefully watching the whole room with a notepad in hand, sat a young lady. She wore the school uniform shirt with brown pants and a loose knitted sweater. Her wavy brown hair was cut too…[Read more]

I’ve created a couple that almost work, they just need larger lexicons. I always make the sentence structures and writing systems but never the words… XD I love thinking about phonology and grammar… I’ve got like five “conlangs” that are just interesting sou…[Read more]

If I need a different language, I usually use some messed up version of Latin. because I already know basic Latin. Or I just make up words that sound like the essence I want to convey.

I may not create other languages, BUT I love collecting words, phrases, and names in English that belong in the world. The slang and vocabulary…[Read more]

Aww, Mel is such a cute girlie

Lucille

Lucy smiled at Mel. “He is a runt, isn’t he? Still giant, though. Corvus colosseus. Scientifically sp-”

Runt pulled his beak out of her hands and began snapping at her hair. It was like being tickled with a pair of tongs.

“Hey!” Lucy burst into chuckles. She pulled away and the crow snapped…[Read more]

not sure if that makes sense but ehhh

Yeah…

I actually forgot about the dance. Lol.

honestly, that’s probably the best way to enjoy this rp at the moment XD

Also, I will try to have something written sometime this week, but I suddenly got hit with a bunch of adult responsibilities all at once recently so it might be a bit, sorry.

Mel

Mel seemed almost hesitant at first as she approached the crow, but as she reached out and touched its beak, a huge grin appeared on her face. She reached farther, petting the feathers on the crow’s neck and made her way to its shoulder, where she giggled and buried her head in its soft feathers. Somehow, the bird allowed this,…[Read more]

Emmerich

“Earth as in….the ground? That’s a boring name for a planet if I’ve ever heard one.”

Huntress elbowed Sniper. “Mick, that’s rude.”

“It’s true,” Sniper replied..

“If his reaction didn’t make it clear….no, we’ve never heard of a place called Terre.” Huntress said to Emmerich and Rosalind.

Rosalind shook her h…[Read more]

Huntress

“Humans and animals are the only creatures we know of on our planet, aside from the spiritual creatures of our world.” Emmerich explained, after a garbled attempt to pronounce “Ornithiform” (giving up after two tries).

I decided not to ask what the spiritual creatures of their world were like. If they were anything like ours…[Read more]

XD

Emmerich

“Nah. At least, I wasn’t. My ancestors could’ve been, a long, long time ago….but I was born this way.”

Rosalind glanced at Emmerich, completely confused.

“Sniper and I have no idea how we got here either. His name’s Mick,” The woman said, gesturing to the man with the tail. “And mine’s Jaylen, but you can call us Sniper…[Read more]

Sniper

”You have a tail. Were you cursed?” the female asked.

I shook my head. “Nah. At least, I wasn’t. My ancestors could’ve been, a long, long time ago….but I was born this way.”

The male, who was introduced as Emmerich, turned to Huntress. “We are lost as well, and do not know how we arrived here.”

She chuckled. “Well,…[Read more]

That first trial sounds good, and if you want, you could have your characters join ours after their trial.

@keilah-h @esther-c

Rosalind

“You have a tail. Were you cursed? How can you be a human with animal characteristics?” Rosalind forced her eyes to the strange man’s face. “I am sorry, I believe I have just sounded…[Read more]

I think I’ll get into like the first like trap or trial? Should my charries run into yours at any point?

TINDER

She needed something to do with her hands. Something to build or take apart. As it was, the strange island had limited options. She settled for a handful of rocks, twigs and vines, sitting down to to…[Read more]

Sniper

The two humans approached us, lookin’ lost.

Not that we weren’t kinda lost ourselves.

One of ‘em had his hand on a sword. I gripped my rifle tightly. He ‘ad a weapon, I ‘ad a weapon. We were on equal standin’ if ya didn’t factor in the fact that mine was ranged.

The female beside him didn’t appear to have…[Read more]

i need to rp tomorrow, if I don’t yell at me or post an image or something

Thanks!

ah that makes sense. Sometimes daydreaming up scenes is so much easier than writing.

Yayy

Okay let’s hope this comes through. KP has ignored me all day.

Lucille

The scuffle left the small crow even scruffier than before. Feathers stuck out from his neck like a frilled collar. He kept turning his head to the left, making the best use of his single right eye.

As he busied himself with the nest, Lucy tried not to catch…[Read more]

I wrote this while half awake and questioning reality so I hope it’s somewhat good.

Mel

Scissors? Mel took her garden shears out of her pocket, confused. They were tiny.

But somehow, they did the trick. Though size was not on their side, they were three against two, and soon, three against one. Mel cheered as the second crow took…[Read more]

I forgot about this.😭 What’s happening?

Are you in the mood to rp? We can add more to the girls’ path or we can reunite them with the main group. If you don’t feel up to it, that’s okay.

I’m actually really excited to write this character. :] She’s new. I can…[Read more]
