The Protector—Gabriel

The scent of the smoke invaded Gabriel’s nostrils. It sickened him, but he remained silent, listening to Cassius’s talk about pleasure. Internally, he wondered if happiness and pleasure were different, and if they were, how were they different. A small plop sound woke him from his thoughts. H…[Read more]

How did the doctor visit go?

The Protector—Gabriel

Gabriel hesitated, before sitting on the stone, bringing his knees up to his chest. He tensed at the slightest noises, eyes darting to where Cassius and Leander slept. “Uh… so do you want me talk like the Protector, or like…my other persona? Or just not talk at all.”

@whalekeeper that’s good!!

@whalekeeper

@whalekeeper

Yay!!

You should make a photo copy of the sketch and try out the colors you have in your mind on that, and if you like it, then go for it, but if not, you have the backup. That’s what I always do. I never color the original, I like to keep a backup. Plus, colored pencils tend to smear when mixed with graphite.

@whalekeeper

YES!!! DO!!!

Celarent

Those were terrible reasons to not teach. “Why does she work here if she won’t teach us anything?”

@whalekeeper

So you aren’t ugly. You just don’t care for my questions. *raises eyebrow* I shall have to guess. Scared of COVID? Hiding from the police? Part of a circus?

Did you agree to go out with any of these random strangers? Are you married? If you were a vegetable, what vegetable would you be and why?

The Protector—Gabriel

“Yes, my birthmarks aren’t a mental illness, but that doesn’t mean that people don’t hate me, or judge me. If I was not the Protector, if I didn’t wear the mask, if I didn’t hide the birthmarks, I would have been killed by the people I protect everyday.” Gabriel clears his throat again, v…[Read more]

Is Marcel here? Because if he is, he might get pelted with apologies from Chase

@whalekeeper

oof lol, I’ll pray for you! I’ve had scopes before but under anesthesia, I can’t imagine doing it awake!

@loopylin @ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Well, I guess it’s a go for finalizing the sketch and then coloring it. I have a few coloring choices I’m deciding on. I might add a starry backdrop, and make his hair silver, or just do like it’s daytime. That’s why the top part of the page is devoid of anything at the moment.

Tbh, after an experience…[Read more]

“So it wasn’t a flippant reason after all. That’s surprising.” Gabriel’s voice sounds young again. His hand moves towards his own mask, hesitates, then slightly dislodges it. A small sliver of skin showing a small cluster of strange birthmarks on his jaw, could be seen. He shows them to C…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Real.
Ok but actually that’s part of how I got diagnosed with autism. I was writing Ellie so much and realizing how much I related to her, and at the same time noticing how many autistic traits she had. So I started getting suspicious and researching it and then I finally asked my doctor and now here I am.

@whalekeeper

Stares at the interviewer for a long time until they get the gist] “…Cosmetics.”

*stares back* So you’re ugly then.

*peers back at meme topic* Have you ever had a stranger ask you on a date?

@whalekeeper

Ewwwwww.

@the_lost-journal

Cool! We do confirmations too, but don’t change our names.

@whalekeeper

Ewww, you’re holding it?! Slugs are cute, but they’re so slimy!

Gabriel leaned close to Leander, whispering, “He doesn’t know what ‘flippancy’ means, does he?”
