@whalekeeper I moved us here so we didn’t spam the topic anymore like you said 😂
That’s okay! I think I understand what you’re saying—I know exactly what you mean by the bright light leaving a splotch in your vision thing. So for the most part, it seems like you have association, but it slightly affects the way you actually see some charact…[Read more]

Ellis —— Elderstrand (w/ Marcel, Felicity, Sara)
Ellis nodded. “Let’s go. Quick!”
The group slipped into the alley and waited in silence as the soldiers neared the street.
“Spread out!” someone shouted. “They must be here somewhere.”
Ellis gripped his sword tight, prepared to silence the first person who…[Read more]

Hi! Back with a few more questions! 🫣
Have you heard of projects/associators? It basically is the difference between actually seeing words/symbols in the color or just associating it with that color in your mind’s eye. Do words really change color for you when you read them, or do you read it in black ink but see it in your head as…[Read more]

“We need to… hide somewhere…” Marcel panted, pulling Sara forward.
She glanced around and saw an abandoned-looking alley. “What about there?”
@everyone else If our characters are going to meet up, maybe now would be a good place to do it?

the Society is literally sending flaming ballons in the sky 🫤 if you want some epic conflict keep throwing basketballs at their legs and see what happens loopy 🙂

The basketball probably didn’t hurt Dante, but Johnny could see that Slick took it as a personal insult. “Hey, shorty!” he yelled.
The kid who had thrown…[Read more]

Ellis —— Elderstrand (w/ Marcel, Felicity, and Sara)
“I don’t like this place,” Ellis muttered. “Where do we go now?”
Just then, there was a sound of shouting. Ellis turned and saw soldiers scurrying along the wall above. They were trapped.
There was the sound of a patrol coming down a street to the…[Read more]

Felicity—Edge of ElderstrandFelicity filed whatever Marcel had just done under “figure out later” along with however she had gotten here in the first place. Her goal now was to avoid getting soaked. As she looked around, she saw that the streets were completely empty and every window was dark. It wasn’t…[Read more]

I have the worst timing for rps sorry guys
@whalekeeper @hybridlore @jonas
Felicity— idk I’m confused. She’s with Ellis Sara and Marcel
Felicity shoved her hat back on and glared at the sky. “I have some money. Let’s find an entrance quick.”

Ellis ——— Elderstrand (outside)
As Marcel spoke, there was a crashbof thunder, and water came pouring down.
”I don’t,” said Ellis. “But I think we’ll be better off inside anyway.”

Tenz and Reid
“I can’t go to anyone for help, Tenz. They would hurt me. So I’ll have to figure it out myself.”
Tenz’z smile faded and his voice dropped low in volume, looking at his twin. “Like… They?”
Reid stiffened, drawing in a breath. His pupils became thinner. “I-I wouldn’t know, Tenz,” Reid said hesitan…[Read more]

No worries, girl. My character’s not the most … extroverted… 😅 so I don’t know if she would step into that leader role. She’s fine just taking a backseat while I practice her POV 😂

Whaley, I don’t mind if you want to do it. 😊 Then @jonas can add the npcs in, and Loopy can go next?

Sorry I haven’t gone. I didn’t want to jump in too soon and take someone else’s turn or something. I can rp in a couple hours once I’ve finished a thing but anyone else can go before me if you don’t want to wait

Liberty replied to the topic Short Short Story Prompt War! in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 weeks, 1 day ago
Maybe whoever wins becomes the next prompter and the next judge/one of the next judges, that seems like a fair deal.
Yes! That sounds like a good idea!

I’m thinking about sending in the NPCs sometime soon. In particular, for the two groups in Elderstrand, I think a good time to do that will be coming up.
For the other two groups, it can happen when you want it to. I…[Read more]

“Oh dear…I… So sorry, I do believe I’m experiencing an existential crisis. Please excuse me.”
Tenz smiled goofily at him, a gesture that came across as little creepy with Tenz’z fangs. “Don’t worry about it! I didn’t even notice! Besides, those things are easily fixed by a mechanic or a wacky inventor.…[Read more]

Okay yay 😂
Yep, I think so.
I don’t use them for inspiration, but while choosing names for characters, I need the right personality to hit. It is a great feeling to find the right name for somebody. Does it affect math? …Memorization is much easier. In that regard it doesn’t get in the way.
Yeah, it’s just the placement on the keyboard. It’s pr…[Read more]
Right, I gotcha. How did you pick some of your characters’ names? What made you realize, oh, that’s the right one?
Awesome! Yeah, that’s really interesting.
Rightt, I’m still trying to figure it out. It has to be in the POV enough, but also not in there too often… it’s a weird balance. I’ll probably stick to unusual words, some sound-to-color,…[Read more]
I go through baby name lists as usual. I have a few letters in mind and/or a length, and swipe through until I find something. This search is very similar to how everyone else does it, there are just a few more criteria for the name to pass.
One of my favorite names ever ever ever is Marcel. The first syllable sounds solid, and the second has a…[Read more]
Honestly I do that with character names too. I try not to name characters even with placeholders until the last minute, because then the placeholder will get stuck as their actual name. Or they’ll still have remnants of that name affecting them or something.
Marcel is a much more unique name than Richard or Howard tbh, I like it way better.
@whalekeepr That is so cool! Yeah, I can’t imagine him being a Richard or Howard. 😅
Thank you so much for all your input! It’s been super helpful!!
@whalekeeper
Yeah Marcel is ten times better, at the time I wasn’t very experienced in name-searching.
@keilah-h Here ya go! 😁
thank you!!!
I hope this interrogation satisfies you 😄
haha I hope so too.
