Do you guys want to try joining up with another small group?
Aw, Barnes is trying to be the comforting grandmother to everyone!
*Gasp* How dare you, she isn’t even forty yet! 😂 I get what you mean. Honestly she would be a pretty grumpy grandma. The grandma who complains about kids but gives them cookies all the…[Read more]

I am the asker, lol. I’m just gauging interest in using a screenwriting format. 😛

Has anyone tried writing a screenplay? Or wants to?

Yayy you watched it! I knew you would like it. Also the poem was beautiful, I wondered at one point if she tyrned into fossilized wood because that stuff is gorgeous. :]

Sometimes I can give a kid an ‘adult’ responsibility and they snap out of crying. I don’t know if that would work here, Rae, but she’s trying. XD

Barnes
“I was thinking we start down this corridor along the edge of the castle, and scour the place for clues and people,” Barnes told Percival.
The group waited a few minutes for Reid to calm his brother, who remained stubbornly curled up. He was still agitated.
Barnes was used to people who looked much younger than their…[Read more]

Of course you can do whatever you want, I’m playing the other side’s advocate so you have balanced reasons for whatever you do.

(also, anyone else who is reading this, what do you think?)
You have a very sensible writer voice, with hints of humor and warmth. I think because of your semi-calm tone, you don’t seem like the kind of person who would write a super intense POV scene of shame for Eric, at least not until the arc’s climax.
And from what I can…[Read more]

@esther-c @highscribeofaetherium
Yeah, I’ve noticed things are slowing down. 😔 The best way I can think of picking things up again would be to update the articles, add new material.
Does anyone remember the time they added a page for a new rank of KP writers? Anyone who wrote three of either articles, short stories, or poems? It was there one…[Read more]

I just decided to read that chapter completely out of order. I’ve only read up to chapter 5 besides this, I think, and that was a while ago. XD I can give some feedback about this chapter, as someone who read it without any context whatsoever.
I liked the sense of friendship I got from all the good guys, even if they couldn’t…[Read more]

plus it all depends on where you caught them in their arcs.
I’m planning to use creative liberties because of this, lol. After all, if some of these people turn violent in the game, that’s not accurate to their canon internal values. This is alternate noncanon; the most moral, innocent character might defenestrate their…[Read more]

Awesommme, I’m glad that worked. For me, I want to add description in longer paragraphs because they have a softer sense of time, and you can afford to give the information in a solid chunk. And then like you said, actions and dialogue are shorter.
Not that I always follow my own thoughts! Buuut verbalizing this might help me stay consistent.

Yaayyy the Loops likey
Now I’m really curious what all the characters want their wishes to be. I think I know Dante’s maybe.
So, as it happens, I am curious too. XD I have some idea of how each character would act in a survival scenario, and everyone wants to survive, buuuuuut I don’t know what each character would wish for. I have gue…[Read more]

I used Simublast, it was the first website I could find that didn’t take forever to load. 😌

it could be your character speaking if you want, there’s no confimation so it’s up to the reader.
Yeah totally. I saw the hat line as my own character’s line, since he has a hat, but it works for more than one character.

Crosshair also could’ve been the guy who said “No” to breakfast, although that could easily have been Alpha as well.
That person was addressed by the president as Markus Haziair

I’m leaving the dialogue up to interpretation. XD Although I have my own idea of who was speaking

Warning, everyone… this part is pretty chaotic because everyone is in the same room, trying to figure out what is going on, talking over each other. This is also the exposition part.

Now I’m even more curious. Sorry if you don’t want to answer. 😅 You said ‘need’ a lot, does that mean you would only talk about death if you need to, not at any other time?
