Haha, Gwen and Stilton are uwu personified XD

(Also, related to our needles discussion–I had a happy yesterday because I had a doctor’s appointment and didn’t have any sharp stuff! So yay!)

@urwen-starial Thank you! <3

@anne_the_noob14

Beautiful!

@naiya-dyani *grins* Yep. Oh, you’re on the thread with all the wound discussion, aren’t you?

Gwen: Luckily, our list is small. I’m the only person on it.

Stilton: Wait wait hold up. You almost died??

Gwen: Oops. I wasn’t gonna tell you that part.

Stilton: YOU WEREN;T GONNA TELL ME THAT YOU ALMOST DIED?? YOU DON’T THINK YOUR BEST FRIEND MIGHT…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

XD Well, Gwen does have good reason to complain.

Tai: May I make a list of all the characters that almost died???

Me: you may not

@naiya-dyani

XD Also relatable.

Gwen: That’s obvious by the CONDITION MY HECKING ARM IS IN RIGHT NOW

Stilton: Yeah! What she said! *glares at me*

@anne_the_noob14

I find it far more fun to have my characters go through medical stuff than to go through it myself. . .

Kiet: *irritation*

Me: I’m sorry, my precious boi

@naiya-dyani *grins*

Yup, yup. XD

YUP, YUP.

@anne_the_noob14 YES! Man, once I thought I might go into the medical field. *shakes head firmly* I’ve learned.

Yeeeeee. . . I hate needles. *shivers* Can’t watch it, can’t experience it without intense wincing and anxiety, not rarely coupled with some shaking. Lemme tell ya, the dermatologist is not a fun place for me. Because I get keloids…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani

*grins* True!

@naiya-dyani Yep… And I know some people have an actual phobia of hospitals, and that’s not my thing. I think what my main problem with them is I can’t stand to know that people are in pain. And so that makes me feel almost kinda claustrophobic. I dunno. It’s weird. But that, whatever that is, coupled with the smell of disinfectant and the…[Read more]

@anne_the_noob14

Heh, at least my children were safe. . . for one night, at least. 😉

@naiya-dyani

Oh my gosh, that’s funny XD And also not, cause #toorelatable… XD

@anne_the_noob14 <3 <3 <3

Hospitals can be pretty awful. . .

@anne_the_noob14 GAAAAAHHH YES

I came home from watching I think it was called Overcomer–can’t quite remember, but it was that Christian movie with the boy that drowned–and it messed me up and I just went OKAY NOW I NEED TO GO TORMENT MY CHARACTERS TO GET THESE FEELS OUT

Unfortunately, I struggled and just ended up yelling to my sister over…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani *grins* My mom and I are, too! And yeah, I make purposeful typos as well 😛

Yes!! Exactly what I do! I’ll get inspired by the weather outside or whatever and write a sonnet, but then I’ll read a book with a bittersweet ending and write a free verse sob story.

@anne_the_noob14 Hah, you should see me when I make a bad typo. . . I get the puppy face of shame, because in my family I’m kind of known as the grammar Nazi. Although I’ve come to mind it far less on things like forums and IMs. Because I make plenty of errors on those things, too. Often on purpose. 😉

I enjoy doing free verse a good bit myself.…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani

No, actually, but I can see how you’d think that 🙂 I wrote this one day as I was thinking about the day I got to go see her after her surgery a couple months ago, and how much I hate hospitals and the whole mess of things that I was dealing with (had mild depression in the couple weeks before her surgery, I think because I was so…[Read more]

@naiya-dyani *grins* It was so fun!

GAAAAAHH YOU’RE RIGHT DANGIT

Sorry XD I get aggravated at myself when I use the wrong homophone XD

And yeah, I get what you said about poetry being “too personal” to critique comfortably. I’ve had the same problem a couple times, even with some prose.
