Hiiiii!!!! Welcome back! I am only just returning from self-inflicted exile as well! It’s gonna be fun again to start a new arc!

@inkhorn @mamaauthoress @lady-grace

Yayyyy!!! New characters!!!

Also, Laura, LOVE that magic system, it sounds SOOOO cool!!! You’ve really thought it through as well!

Okay so the plan is:…[Read more]

@calidris

I’ll try but she may threaten to shoot me XD why on earth did I give her exceptional archery skills?? *fp* My life is in danger.

Oohh, interesting! I honestly don’t know what older Yarrow is like but it’d be fun to find out. Mourns the death of the Vulture Vomit ideaXD

I love the painting of Kit!

Ooh! Ava would be…

@mamaauthoress hi there!
Ah good to know I’m not the only one😅

@mamaauthoress  Those characters and their world sound fascinating! And I can’t wait to meet Frey and Cahira as well @rose-colored-fancy   @inkhorn

@calidris   That’s a cool painting of Kit! I especially like how you did his clothing.

And I LOVE that idea for after the fight with Lord Castle! …though I’m not sure if I should laugh or be incredi…[Read more]

Hello all!

@mamaauthoress

Your characters seem cool! I love sibling duos! (or trios)

My character in the castle is Conroy Flinston, an eight-year-old boy who just happens to be a spy. He’s had little training in basic manners (he will learn eventually XD) and is currently being held as a hostage by the castle and is in desperate need of being…[Read more]

@mamaauthoress

Ahh gotcha.  That sounds like so much fun!

Hehe I’m really looking forward to seeing Kit get a taste of his own medicine XD

And thank you!  I’m really happy with how this one turned out!

@this-is-not-an-alien

See, I think that’s the key – he’s really does try to be respectful of her b0undaries and immediately backs off if she lets him know she feels uncomfortable or doesn’t like what he’s doing

IT DOES!!!!  But, it really draws a lot of attention when you really start getting into it…

EXACTLY!!!

@mamaauthoress

Oh…[Read more]

@calidris

@mamaauthoress those characters sound interesting!  Are they related to Ruan’s story by any chance?

Thank you! No, they are not; Rúan’s story is on hold right now, and the Meirs are from a collaborative story I have with my boyfriend and my friend :))

I think that in order to get to the next stage or room of the castle, each char…

@lady-grace YES DO IT!!!

@mamaauthoress those characters sound interesting!  Are they related to Ruan’s story by any chance?

@ethan-leonard Would you like to go ahead and have Saevus finish off Lord Castle?  I don’t think the vulture vomit idea is going to work out, since @jared-williams isn’t active right now

Actually @everyone I have an i…[Read more]

LOL THANK YOU ALL FOR INVITING ME TO INFODUMP 😉

Yet another neurosparkly overlap XD

The stores. always. hate. me. 😅😟

HA IKR!?!?! People seem to think I’m a bit deranged when I do that…

I always kidnapped…and tortured…my toys…

I too was disturbed but having them escape was therapeutic I guess…

@mamaauthoress…[Read more]

@mamaauthoress Here’s a description of my characters!

Valencia Page: 5’3″, pale skin, dark curly hair cut in a bob.

Val is quiet and introverted, as well as intelligent and observant.  She’s autistic, and has always struggled to make and keep friends.  She was close friends with one of Kit’s biological cousins as a child, but they were s…[Read more]

@mamaauthoress

Welcome! I can’t wait to meet your characters!

@rose-colored-fancy

Actually! I have an answer!

Here you go, this is the DSM diagnostic criteria for Autism in adults. (Rooted around through way too many links from decidedly… iffy autism resources.)

It’s a bit information dense and clinical, not to say a little pathologizing, but a good overview! It also says how many of these traits you nee…

@mamaauthoress

Hello hello! It’s awesome to see you around again!

@everyone

I kinda want to drop in a character as well! Frey my boi has been talking to me for months now and he’s more than ready to get out into the world.

Honestly…has anyone ever told him?

I think Kit would either get smug and annoying about it or tear up XD

Actually it’s pretty much canon that little elderly women tell him he’s handsome and charming because he’s very polite towards them…so they get to see the nice version of him and then Val gets stuck with the smug aftermath XD

You…[Read more]

@mamaauthoress Welcome back!  Of course you can!  We’re actually in desperate need of some new plot/action at the moment (I just CAN’T get my characters to do anything,) so that’s perfect!  Would you like a rundown of the characters in the castle right now?

@mamaauthoress

Interesting…the character I ennd up writing the most in the castle is very much an extrovert XD

Well, when you and Ruan feel up for it, you’re more than welcome to rejoin!

I’d say that the overall tone of the castle isn’t dark, but there’s definitely been some heavy, touchy subjects that we’ve explored.  There was one…[Read more]
