To clarify, this scene comes before the last one I shared.
Mandin already knew Nahim was a Nayhelm, that’s why he showed the article to Mandin. He’s also being casual because for one he’s tired, he got very little sleep, and for two, he hasn’t promised to tell Mandin yet, and Mandin often asks him every few days/weeks in tiny s…[Read more]

I didn’t forget! (Completely. Had a lot of stuff going on in my house, so it kinda got pushed on the back burner for the last few days) I have been thinking of a goal. Unfortunately, my previous plans all include at least a singular villain as my stories usually go. I do not want this…[Read more]

@keilah-h @highscribeofaetherium
Skin walkers are from Native American mythology. If I remember correctly, they are cursed men/spirits who can shape shift into creepy animals. They harm humans, and while having a human form, their human form doesn’t look totally human. But the scariest thing at all is how hushhush the Natives are about them. The…[Read more]

I think you probably already thought of this, but Eric would probably try to frame Riker. Get Riker on everyone’s bad side.
Steal cigarettes and put them in Riker’s stuff. Dirty uniforms and leave some trace of Riker behind. Rummage belongings. That kinda stuff.
I think that could go under three of the bullet notes you have,…[Read more]

Yeah, I’m bothering everyone again. I like the idea of this scene, but I feel like it has some major problems. I want to see if any of you notice it, since I’ve found more than once that I stress over things that others are like “…[Read more]

I kind of didn’t trust him. If he continued to be this kind I would come to love him though. I just have trust issues with nice characters. XD. They’re so often evil.
That cracked me up. Mostly from surprise. Mandin is nice like that all the time, with sparks of extreme loyalty readers see here and there at the right times. He als…[Read more]

Chase
Chase reached into his pocket and silently pulled out his phone that he had grabbed from the floor before the three of them left the scene. He held it where the girl could see it, before sliding it back into his pocket.
“We, we need to…” He pointed to the doorway. “T-teachers, sta, stew, stu-dents find us.”

@everyone
Thanks for answering my questions, it meant a lot.
And yes, it is a violin.

Ruth replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 4 months ago
Yessssss, very much so! I really loved the body language and it really conveyed Nahim’s feelings/emotions/fears for sure!
Good. I was worried it was kinda unclear.
A Violinnnnnnnnn (and I was over here excited, like: HEYYY, RIKER PLAYS VIOLIN!! XD)
No way! That’s amazing! Idk even how to react, that’s just SO GREAT! And I’m o…[Read more]

Yep, makes sense. One thing that threw me out a little was how Nahim stuttered a bit, and his shivery response. I haven’t seen much of this character but for some reason I picture him as the stoic, silent warrior type. The stuttering especially sounds like a younger man or boy – the type like in Way of Kings, with the boy who was dra…

Hey,I need help knowing if this scene feels forced or anything.
The context is that Mandin invited Nahim to a festival that Mandin’s family was having, and Nahim promised to finally tell Mandin his traumatic backstory.
Evening came,…

Ruth replied to the topic The Chat Chat in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 4 months ago
Yeah, I had to do this same thing last month… Poor Nahim was totally broken…
Anyways, what I personally did was not focus much on the physical, but went more for the thoughts and emotions of my MC. It was still awful, but not in a gruesome way.
I did mention the body language a couple times of the one being tortured, but…[Read more]

Yes, I’ve been thinking about that for the past couple months. For whatever reason, skinwalkers ad hydras have been popping into my head every time I think about it…
I’ll begin brainstorming but for now let us set up our characters. Idk, maybe we make up someone who can get captured by a dragon and everyone goes to save them 🤷🏻♀️…[Read more]

Silvanis
“Of course you’re a dragon! I’m not stupid, despite popular opinion. And no, no other dragons-” Silvanis stopped, looking around. “Well, minus the one outside. He doesn’t appear to have a rifle, but my vision can kinda get blurry through walls so don’t trust me. Can’t tell his color but doesn’t appear to have a feminine build.…[Read more]

Well, we have some bad teachers and haven’t yet met the good ones. Sounds like an average school to me.
It’d take an exceptional teacher to change Chase’s mind about school. I mean, if your school teacher was either a man you were always afraid of or a woman who literally tried to kill you, how would you…[Read more]

Huh, that’s interesting cuz I’ve never seen more of Tron than a ten-second clip in which most my attention was on the motorcycle things.
I’m planning on redoing the Silvanis drawing now cuz I see it from my bed where I set it and his ear, his cheek, and his neck scream at me every time I look at him.
I also need to…[Read more]
