The Ducktator

Speaking of which, I don’t put swearing in my animations….lol. That’s not what I meant.

It was the animation style and the characters that made my dad think of me.

@ellette-giselle

Hmm. We’ll have to see.

What draft is this? If this is a first or second draft I could forgive you for killing them off and yeeting us into some random’s POV, cause it’s still rough and maybe you just figured out that killing them works for the story. But if it’s the final draft, almost ready for publishing, and you did that, I…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I read the section! Good to have the characters remember past events.

Also, I agree with Linus, I think they’re gonna live (or at least Leon and Julian will, Aelic could die or he could live); it seems a little early to kill these characters off, especially since you’ve provided no real replacement protagonists.

@ellette-giselle I’m def gonna have to catch up on the sections😅🫶

Anyone wanna read a little sneak peek into one of my main projects? 🤭🫶

It was finally the day that marked exactly a year since Aodhán had perished.

Michael Bréagach pulled at a loose string on the s…

@ellette-giselle not yet!! I just happened to see Linus’s reply while I was going through my emails. I’m doing animation work right now, but my “work” computer and my normal computer have the same email. I’ll read it when I’m on my other computer.

@ellette-giselle

Lolol.

@ellette-giselle yep, that’s a perfect name for the character in the image.

It just…fits her.

@ellette-giselle That’s what I thought, it sounds like a girl’s name.

also that meme is peak humor lol

@ellette-giselle

Haha! I like Aelic too, but I really liked how you put us more in Julian’s mind than we normally get to be.

I’m like 95% sure they’re going to survive.

@linus-smallprint

completely off topic but Bastille is an awesome name for a character. It sounds like a female name, but I guess it could be for a guy too.

@ellette-giselle

🙄 Ugh.

But why? 😭

I wanna do whatever I want. I is the author.

Do you have your Literary Licence from Bagsworth Books like Bastille?

Does this mean you think they’re gonna get out of this one alive?

I think so. It’s still early in the book. You could kill them all off and switch to a different character at this point as the p…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

why?

For the reason Leon mentioned. Reflexes happening faster than recognition.

The next morning, Julian woke to the sound of voices and banging. He leapt to his feet and yanked on his boots. Leon was already pulling on his hat and beat him into the other room.

When Julian arrived, he found Martin, Aelic, Leon, and Aiden all…

@ellette-giselle

Love this section! You did a great job of bringing in Julian’s character and his thoughts, like when he remembered the burning building. Their last exchange is so funny. XD

The fireman’s carry imo is harder than piggyback. I don’t care what they say.

You know story research just got real when you’re contemplating carrying your sister as many times up and down the street as you can, to test the strength vs weight in an escape scene

@ellette-giselle @keilah-h @theducktator @linus-smallprint

New chapters on the Part 2 doc!

Stopped at :45. That was legitimately helpful

This is going to sound goofy, but I’m going to start an idea-generation session at :05.
