Lol completely messed up your tags

@ellette-gidelle @whalekerper

I agree with a lot of what you said, Ellette. Good points. Here’s the thing though.

That’s an extremely blatant example. I’m more interested in the possible nuances.

A man who leaves a woman to fight for him/rescue him is no man.

Agreed, but what if he has no choice? What if the villain has him tra…[Read more]

I just came back to look at Jezyk and I 100% started crying again. He was SO SWEET!!!! Oh man, I LOVED him. I think he might be my favorite. Oh and the expressio0n on his face in the aesthetic! Oh man, you’re going to kill me! I can’t believe what happened to him! I’m going to storm over there and ring Han’s neck! Ugh! How…[Read more]

I just wrote 3,000 words, but you STILL owe me Captain America!!!!!

where is he!!!??

😝

@linus-smallprint

Well, if I had a physical copy of the story, I would know. But I suppose this could spoil weather or not Aaron survives. I know this is a trilogy, but book two could pick up with Sabina or someone else.

that’s a possibility.

I thought for a split second that he would end the letter like this. That would have been blunt and h…

@theshadow

thank you!! I’m very glad it was helpful!!

@whalekeeper

switching a “damsel in distress” for a “man in distress.”

ABSOLUTELY NOT!

I don’t care how interesting that plot may be, I believe it’s plain wrong. It’s completely unbiblical and it’s against God’s design. A man who leaves a woman to fight for him/rescue him is no man. Just read the Bible and you will see God very clearly designe…[Read more]

Min I’m so sorry I haven’t been active at all lately, I went on a trip with my family a few weeks ago out to Idaho and it was soooo fun but now I’m trying to catch up with all the school I missed lol 😭😭 I’ve missed you so much!! How are you doing?

Pls don’t ever apologize! I’m just happy t…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Even if I don’t use it here, my favorite trope is just a bunch of guys being an unlikely team. Which Keilah probably agrees with. 😂

I like writing guys best too. lol.

@freed_and_redeemed

😠 Yeah you better run

XD jkjk

I know you said you like Gimli more in the movies which is totally fine. I like almost all the characters from the books the same as I like them in the movies. Exception being Faramir because book Faramir was a totally different person.

@whalekeeper

What are y’all’s thoughts on disregarding the male/female traditional tropes sometimes? Because I know religiously some people are against it. I like the idea of it, if it accomplishes interesting characterization, but I’m curious if other people approach it with more objectivity.

Do you mind explaining what you mean by this for the s…[Read more]

@keilah-h

Haha! Good to know.

So then, since you said something, does that mean your aren’t happy? Maybe a little stressed?

@keilah-h

Silence could also mean it’s so bad that you can’t even find something to say.

haha!!!

Oh, thank you so much!!!

@keilah-h

I agree.

@keilah-h

btw, yay! I got a reaction out of you!

lol.

@keilah-h

You’ll have to read more to find out. lol

Oh completely. In the actual book they are in a completely different font and are indented. KP wouldn’t let me indent them, so I guessed Italicizing would have to do.

@keilah-h

I agree with you…. but if you look at the old original damsel in distress stories, the girl was often a strong woman, but she was defeated and captured by a man, or held captive by evil in some way. (Totally reasonable.)

I think as women it can be easy to balk when we hear that term because of what society has been telling…[Read more]

@calyhuge

The damsel in distress?

*smiling and blinking hopefully*

Yeah, there’s the uh… the uh… uh… um…

I love him! Such a sad life. But a redeeming end.
