@keilah-h

I also have some good ideas basing off Whaley’s poem.

Be my guest! I just riffed on what I remembered of the characters lol

@rae

Violent of the “kill everything” type.

XD Oh Gabriel, you force of nature

Lucille

Lucy peered out the window at the crows. “They’re real handsome birds when they’re not so close up.”

She eyed the room’s mantelpiece noticing a handle sticking from the ornate wood. It was a small silver hatchet. Without hesitation, she yanked it free of it…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Can you guys describe your characters?

Oh! Yeah I can do that. Barnes is just a tall woman with chopped blonde hair. Wears very old-style clothing from maybe the 40s, a suit in this. Also a white mask with dark eyeholes. Little Lucy is literally the same but without the mask and with even shorter hair.

It’s cool you want to draw this! B…[Read more]

I’m good with anything that happens as long as Lucy stays with Gabriel. She’d be none too happy if they got separated

@keilah-h

5 is Ayla, Ducktator’s character

@loopylin

You can always make them lose their way and come back to them another time. The mist could warp time and they’d wander around without doing anything significant for days on end. So you can do something else in the meantime.

@keilah-h

😂 Ah yes, the Wings of Fire prophecy. Glad you like the poem. I would’ve liked to do every character justice but I don’t know their character arcs and whatnot.

@loopylin

Yep that’s correct

@loopylin

The way I’ve imagined it, the labyrinth is really good at acting like it has a mastermind. It’s not a person and doesn’t have a person behind it, but it can mechanically detect, reflect and manipulate real people’s thoughts. No one within the story wrote the poem; it just spontaneously manifested because of how the labyrinth…[Read more]

Lucille

Lucy did as she was told and more; she slid every candle into her trouser belt and pockets. The flames flickered around her waist like a burner under a pan and she hissed with restrained laughter.

The poem didn’t make much sense. Was it about people who had already escaped? Had they died? She recognized Gabriel’s title, but the res…[Read more]

My hand is fine now. I was rather miffed because I burnt my hand yesterday too, pulling steak out of the oven.  It’s never bad burn, just painful for ten minutes or so.

Baking is indeed fun and time-consuming

I apologize for the bad poem. I wrote it quickly and didn’t want to spend forever fixing it

@rae

Lucille

For the first time, Lucy’s face flushed. Gabriel knew she was young, but he didn’t know that while she was a good silent reader, she did not read aloud to people. She put the book on the table and squinted in the candlelight. She stuttered but got through it.

Here we have our victims
Here we have them all

Sorry about the wait! I spent the afternoon whisking masa, cooking meat, burning my hand on a kettle, etc. Lots of cooking. And I felt I should update the school roleplay first if I had free time.

Make something up

Alright! I had an idea, just give me two shakes

@esther-c

Did you find any ideas for this? It’s totally fine if you haven’t looked yet, but I would love to brainstorm this idea some more!

@keilah-h

Ohhh i love it! I agree with Ruth, the prologue is 👌👌👌👌🔥🔥

@elishavet-pidyon @loopylin @theducktator

Not intending to mess up the role play turns. 🫣

It’s hard to tell who wants to go next so I don’t blame you lol. Loops or Duck, one of you needs to go after me.

Marcel

Marcel laughed and brushed his hair out of his eyes so he could better return the glare. “With that attitude, you already do.”

Happy Feast of Saint Nicholas!

To the tune of Up on the Housetop: Up at Nicea, the bishops pause, Arius and Santa Claus. One claims a time when the Son was not, one says that’s a heretical thought! Ho, ho, ho, who’s gonna go, ho, ho, ho, who’s gonna go. Off with a right hook, good Saint Nick, down goes the dirty heretic!

@koshka

We have one that’s more like a jelly salad, and one that’s a barbeque sauce. We usually eat the second one on meatballs for Christmas, but sometimes, (like this year), we have it for Thanksgiving as well.

@rae

Is there something you want the book to lead up to, or should I make something up?
