Here’s the thing… In the Bible, you can see many places where the word evil is used interchangeably with the word sinful. The word evil can be used for different things (sometimes with a whole different meaning entirely) but it is used to describe sin.

I would say sin is profoundly immoral and wicked. After all, we should spend…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Insecurities.

Okay, here’s the bread and butter of it when it comes to my personal opinion –

I agree with you that they can be used as a character flaw, this is more of a tangent –

I feel like they comprise ninety-percent of character arcs in modern day YA, and I… kinda want the scales to shift? 😂 Is that just me?

Like, I…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Okay, I’m so glad we straightened that out 😅😂

That is MY bad by using that word in that way, and I apologize.

So I guess what I mean is:

Active arc: Triumphing over a sin you didn’t know you had

Passive arc: Learning you didn’t have a sin you thought you had

Does that make sense?

@godlyfantasy12

OH MY GOODNESS I just realized… I think we’re each using the word “flaw” differently

I’m using it to mean, “sin”

Is that what you mean?

…

Also I’m sorry for arguing this late. I shouldn’t be going to far into this, when I’m not absolutely sure if I’ll agree with my past self in the morning XD

@godlyfantasy12

LOLOLOL 😂😂😎 There ya go, do with it what you will ❤

So…

Is there some way Zolten’s death might connect with November?

(I mean, fundamentally he’s on the same path as Ara, but it would be nice if it meant something specific to him, too)

…Maybe something to do with November’s dad? Idk.

@godlyfantasy12

*Pulls back* Okay, I’ll slow down…

First off, “influenced by others” was probably not the correct choice of word.

Being influenced by others can indeed be a flaw if you take it too far, make all your decisions based on others, etc. But that’s not what I meant. I just meant any normal influence in general. For example, it’s…[Read more]

I thought about my whole character arc thing for a little while longer (went to the pool and mulled over it in the unfortunately cold water) and found another type which might be considered an “in-between” but is really just Passive.

I should think of better names than Active and Passive, if I’m going to be so passionate about this……[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Lol yeah ❤️

So in this book, Ara and November both have a fear of the unknown, but Ara has a more specific fear relating to her responsibilities as a leader, and November just has all that extra baggage.

Sooo all we need to do is think of inciting incidents for each of them, that have to do with their individual development!

If…[Read more]

FRIENDS

GUESS WHAT

I had a… I don’t know… revelation XD About story mechanics!! I had it like, a month ago, and I dismissed brain-storming further because I was busy. But now…

Okay, so think about this.

There are so many kinds of character arcs, right? Rags to riches, redemption, etc.

But have you ever considered other, additional ways…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

I don’t know why, but I pictured everything going frosty as the sun fell away, and the sigh coming from the first boy was so clear to me… If that makes any sense. XD❤

@godlyfantasy12

Oki-doki cool! Thank you ❤

So you’ve got Lyn and Nyx in order, but Ara and November need a push…

I think it would have to be something (or TWO somethings) that kick off their character development for that book.

So what ghosts are going to challenge them in this particular book? What are they each struggling with?

Then we…[Read more]

Hey Godly!!

Oh my goodness, pacing is SO HARD XDXD

The first think I thought to do was look up the definition of Inciting Incident. As far as I can see, an inciting incident is an event, no matter how big or small, that disrupts the hero’s status quo. It starts the conflict, but it can be either negative or positive, and it might not even be…[Read more]

@calyhuge

Yep, I noticed 😉 I do that with my RPs most of the rime, even if it isn’t noticeable at all XD I’ve even used a specific metaphor which relates to one character’s canon death, which nO OnE KnOwS AbOuT. Just goes to show what you can sneak in for personal pleasure only.

As for your writing style… honestly, a lot of the time it’s just…[Read more]

@calyhuge

My apologies. Perhaps Seb warped away before Katonia could say anything? I’ll say that was his canon response. And thank you for the healing jewel. 😉

@godlyfantasy12

We have Paxton, Fynn (I hope I spelled it right XD), Wolfie, Flax, Marc, Seb, and… Lucas! That’s who we forgot.

And I’ll leave starting the next day to you, our…[Read more]

Wait a sec, I had a bedtime RP ready –

But thanks Godly for the attention – writing these is my reward for finishing my new stressful schedule every day!

– Two Hours Later –

Seb was a simple man, with simple needs.

And those included snuggling up in a blanket, watching silent black and white films, eating three gallons of ice…[Read more]

@loopylin

❤️ I’m glad it’s so fun to read! Thanks Loops!!

@godlyfantasy12

Sounds good to me! Tbh, I don’t know if my charries could survive for much longer 😂

Also GIRL. I seriously thought Marcel would low-key be annoyed with Pax for the entire year – and while yeah, he isn’t exactly happy Pax’s aura in general, at least they’re cool now XDX…[Read more]

Sebastian

Sebastian blinked. “No encore?”

I do believe Wolfie was unconscious a minute ago, so somebody should probably look at his head… is someone going to carry him?

@godlyfantasy12

*Bows* I’m glad you died so happily ;P

Sebastian

Sebastian smiled, and slowly raised one finger to his ear, drawing invisible spirals in the air.

The winged boy slowed his words, and stopped, still staring down at the newcomer with a mixture of amusement and confusion.

“Mm… Mm… You know, I think actions speak louder than…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

DUUUUUUUDE YOU KILLED MY BAB-

Nah, it’s okay, he’ll live XD

Someone’s going to have to win here, peeps. Also let’s not kill anyone here, okay? Yeah my charries will constantly joke about it, but they wouldn’t kill anyone, and even they know when a fights gone too far.

Just to make sure we all good here… XD
