@the_lost-journal Beetles are really cool! I based one of my fantasy creatures, the Suileans, off of them. (In my TF2 sci-fi world, Demoman is a Suilean.) Did you know there are at least 400,000 species of beetles in the world?

and yeah I like praying mantises too–I have a really cool Lego set of one that I got for Christmas. It was in a pack of…[Read more]

@jonas yeah maybe!

also cool profile pic design.

@the_lost-journal

Sorry for taking so LONNNGGGG to reply!

Well now we’re even because I took FOREVER to reply as well!! 🤣 So sorry!!! 😭

Oh, yeah I should’ve mentioned that! About how mega churches are almost always portrayed badly. (Ofc there are some awful mega churches.) But what I mean about “giving them a good church experience” is truly b…

@savannah_grace2009

Yes, of course girl!! <333

@savannah_grace2009

Thanks!! <33

one thing I’ll suggest, is that I feel like you don’t really introduce the family to us in the first few chapters. At first I wasn’t even sure if Blake was their sibling or not XDXD

They do have a HUGE family, so setting a solid foundation and making all the siblings and the parents unique and established in ou…

@freed_and_redeemed

Wyoh apparently doesn’t like to notify me when you tag me 😑 Anywayyyy Loved the scene! But also feel so bad for Riker!! 😥

@the_lost-journal

Oh cool! Awesome!!

@the_lost-journal Cool! i hope she doesn’t have problems joining…..cause my brother’s application (he sent it twice on two separate occasions) is still being ignored, and on the “welcome our newest member” thing at the bottom of the forums tab, the last member that joined did so several months ago. I don’t know if they’re keeping track of that anymore.

@the_lost-journal yeah let ’em go to the dung beetles

dung beetles are funny though. The way they roll up their “treasure” and walk (sometimes backwards) pushing it around all the time

@the_lost-journal Forgive my language, but those people who do agree are steaming piles of aurochs’ dung.

@ellette-giselle Ooooh! I didn’t expect Qayid and Rolf to be the same person, but I’m happy he and Leon were reunited. I wonder what’ll happen to Albee, although I’m glad Leon and Ian weren’t separated at least.

Is Leon going to heal now that this new slave master is kinder to them and won’t make him work as hard as he did?

Also, I think this…[Read more]

@the_lost-journal you’re welcome!

And you’re good, these things happen sometimes.

Plus you now know we all agree with you on how disgusting such a thing would be lol

(not much of a laughing matter but ehh you know me)

@the_lost-journal it’s okay!!

Glad it wasn’t that bad, but it’s still serious.

@the_lost-journal

No worries! That’s still serious and important and I’ll keep praying 🙏🏻🫶🏻

@godlyfantasy12 so the brothers are a little like Moses and Aaron, kinda! Cool! Emyr would be the Moses equivalent, the younger brother that leads the people according to God’s plan, and then Daryen would be the Aaron-like, the older brother fulfilling the more explicitly priestly role.

(was just reading Numbers in my morning Bible study, so t…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I can get behind having a gun and a shield inside the pulpit. He’s well prepared.

I don’t think my church has ever had a shooting in our area, but we still have people guarding around. I work in the pre-k Sunday school, and sometimes, if the weather’s nice, we take the kids over to the playground we have just outside the…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 wow!

so Ara’s family is all in high positions? Her parents are the rulers, her uncle is called a “prophet” so I’m guessing that means he’s their advisor?

@godlyfantasy12 oh, cool! Those are really pretty colors you’ve picked, too.

so one of them dies canonically? Or you’re just saying if one dies the crystal goes dull? Will someone else get it, or will it just never be usable again cause its owner is gone forever? (Unless he or she has a way of coming back.)

@linus-smallprint lol

I see the prologue (btw I love how it’s called “The Chapter Before”) already has a title!

@linus-smallprint Probably a good idea to wait till a later draft.

Can’t wait to see what’s in store for Alan and the group!
