Reid

“Yes, that may be wise. Especially if we plan to explore more of this place soon. Since Hugo briefly awoke already, I’m guessing he’ll wake up soon. And Tenz…he’ll get up when he smells food.” Reid reached out with one of his tendrils, drawing an apple to him. “Though I must say this place has strange and interesting food.”

Next chapter! We are about two-thirds through The Cost now. (Maybe a little under.) This scene was not in the first draft, so I’m interested to see what you think of it.

Chapter the 20th – The Eraser

@theshadow lol I’m glad you’ve enjoyed it!

No, I think it’s fine, I like how you tell your story.

yay!

I like this one the best lol, that would be such a fun story to tell.

Haha, yeah it would be hilariously funny, and it means I get to design Changeling/Argonite hybrids, which I bet would be super cool.

Honestly I have so many ideas for h…[Read more]

Barnes

“It’s a sport.” Barnes held up a fist, and hit it against the palm of her other hand. “Like that.”

They halted at a hall junction. Following a smaller corridor, they passed golden lanterns, the light of which seemed to melt through the cracks of the stone walls like melted butter.

The corridor opened to a chamber. A…[Read more]

Reid

So, we have a band of all fighters. That could be useful, but I haven’t seen any signs of hostility yet. None of this band appears to have special powers, though I do sense something odd from Barnes and Hugo. I still don’t understand why we are here…

“And boxing? What is boxing? Is it a special power or a hobby? A…[Read more]

@theshadow @rae

Newish revelation, there are many ways to write a socially awkward person.

Barnes

Emeline spoke cautiously. Of course she did. Barnes relaxed her shoulders and tried to look less sharp. “I enjoy accounting, and also fight well. I… do you know boxing?”

@theshadow

Shadow awakens! Yay!! 🤗

@theshadow

Greetings nice to meet you shadow. What do you like to bake best?

Do you have a character named Cyrus?

um… yeah I do, how did you know that?

Do you like LOTR, and if so who’s your favorite character?

I haven’t read the books yet (I really need to) but I’ve seen the movies and my favorite character is either Legolas or Aragorn.

Here is some new artwork of Alan I’ve gradually been chipping away at when I have the chance over the last few weeks. I’ve been meaning to redo artwork of him with a more refined design for a while, I just have not been satisfied with most things I have drawn. Now I finally have something I’m happy with. I’m considering developing this further…[Read more]

@rae YES! Tagging some people…

@theshadow Jesus, “Why are you here?” Me, “Can I have a hug?”

I would love to be an expert in “Me trying to figure out how which chords are going to fit in my songs!!!!” Either that or public speaking.

Narnia, Aslan is much cooler than Gandalf.

@elishavet-pidyon That is a very weird question, to which I answer “NO! They belong on your feet!…[Read more]

Sorry if I’m annoying you guys.

I was hoping to get this to you earlier, but I was having trouble writing the dialogue in this chapter for whatever reason. I’m still not quite happy with the first part or my title for this chapter, but let’s see what you all think.

Hopefully Chapter the 20th – The…[Read more]

Tenz and Reid

Reid was glad that Hugo had awoken. It was a good sign.

“What are each of your skills?”

“Tenz can heal almost anything, from scrapes to broken bones. He can restart a heart, but he can’t replace it, and he can’t always fix brain damage. He also can’t replace lost blood. He can fly using his abilities, and…[Read more]

@rae @theshadow

Barnes has some traits which make sense for a leader in this situation. But you are free to combat anything she does. 😅

Hugo

As his vision floated back, Hugo winced and shifted to his side, where he could look up at the people around him.

“…I am the oldest,” Barnes was saying. Although a couple of these people were taller than…[Read more]

@theshadow oh thanks! Didn’t expect you to actually want to do it lol.

That’s perfectly fine if you’re too busy! Just tell me whenever you do have the time to write and I’ll get you that “inside information” lol

I’m assuming that means you’re pretty much finished with what I’ve got.

@whalekeeper @theshadow

Reid

“Yes, a kitchen would be wise. Especially since Tenz and Hugo will be ravenous when they wake up. Our powers require plenty of rest and food. Without enough, we can fall into a coma-like sleep for sometimes days. Now, who shall be leader to our little party?”

@theshadow (you’re good!) @rae

Barnes

The two other parties continued theorizing. Barnes, meanwhile, flitted through her own thoughts in silence. When the last young man spoke, she spoke quickly after. “Fine. As long as we find a kitchen storeroom and secure firelit bedrooms along the way.”

A piece of her believed they were locked in. This…[Read more]

@theshadow no problem!

Huntress and Sniper

Callum and Fairy lit a fire in the center of our gathering place.

Sniper leaned close to me and whispered, “Good thing Pyro’s not ‘ere or we’d ‘ave a problem on our hands at the sight of the fire.”

I snickered at that. “Yeah, it’s probably for…[Read more]
