I will figure it out soon.

Marcel

After floating to their classroom, the children begged Marcel to stay for snacktime. Ms. Charles was more than happy to oblige them, and the boy crouched upon one of the lily pads, chewing absently on a graham cracker.

The students from the basement stopped by, and…[Read more]

My brother would most certainly not be smiling. He’d be saying, “What the heck are you doing?”

Lol XDXD I get that. The brother would think she’s crazy at first and he’d be scared for her, but it’s still a gesture of love.

If she was going to go with him, at all, she should go as a nurse or something and work behind battle lines…

@ellette-giselle

Of course, in the best scenario. Do you see how going with him represents victory over her fear? Can you imagine the smile on her brother’s face when she insists on doing everything he has to do, right alongside him? Even if it isn’t the best thing that could have happened?

@mineralizedwritings
Oh yes, it’s totally nostalgia XD But you might like it because it has the mystery of happening underground in mines. The deeper you go, the stranger things get, and the melancholy of a lost world keeps popping up in the music or background art. It is very immersive.

@ellette-giselle

Yes, staying home and giving support would be best in a perfect world. I totally get that. But it’s all about Bonnie’s mindset, WHY is she doing this?

Bonnie hides behind all the traditional supportive things because those are the safe things, everyone expects you to do them and her brother has a hard time believing it’s…[Read more]

They are better than what I can do, at present. :]

@mineralizedwritings

Thank you! The hands are a learning curve, but much easier than realistic hands.

Yuussss I play Hollow Knight, it was my first video game. <3 I could say a lot about how awesome it is. The combat and storytelling are the best part.

Does this make sense to anyone else? :’) I hope it does.

@ellette-giselle

I think you misunderstood what I asked, but this works too 🙂

What does it hurt you to take a few steps in the opposite direction of the world?

What if we step too far into the other extreme? I believe another extreme exists. I agree, men and women are literally different, but there are so many nuances in every person. That’s k…[Read more]

Cartoon drawing practice! Did this for a couple hours. I used a bunch of different references.

@ellette-giselle

I like it! 😊 It looks familiar but I can’t remember what I’m thinking of

@koshka

Why can’t a woman fight for a man? Not out of *superiority* (snotbagishness), but out of love for a fellow bearer of the image of God (aka human)?

*Nods in agreement* But to take it further, are there other reasons for a man or woman to act outside of those norms?

Now let me go get that charger before I disappear…

*Taps the screen* You ali…[Read more]

I have a female protagonist, Barnes, and she is a huge leader and fighter. There is a huuuuuge maternal dominance in the story, and the main protagonist would not exist otherwise. Because Barnes is not misusing her power and she has good reason to be a more physically dominant being, I don’t think she is a bad person. She’s largely a victim of…[Read more]

Thanks for the thoughts!

I truly wish there was some way to objectively judge every action. It seems like everything depends on the spiritual aspect rather than the physical, but I’ve learned to find it comforting.

I starting drawing him digitally, but something about the pen saturation ruined it :'( I was sad. I’m going to traditionally draw him soon.

I’ve worked on the planks though. ;P

@grcr

Okaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy

Uuuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh

This Smiley ramble was completely out of the blue, and I could not stop cackling 🤣<3

I will have to read The Lunar Chronicles, I keep hearing good things about it.

Whaley great job with the working out, but seriously girl!! ake sure you’re drinking water!!! *does an evil glare to everyone who’s posted writing on there*

I have been drinking, I pro…[Read more]

I like writing guys best too. lol.

Yes, a group of misfit dudes is so good. It’s like, the comfort food of fiction. 🥹
