I think it is important to not leave the audience (reader/viewer) feeling confused or muddy. As long as real right and wrong are clearly portrayed–nit only portrayed, but given emotional backing–I don’t see a problem with morally grey characters. To get specific, I think that to have a really “protagonistic” protagonist they need to fall on the…[Read more]

Honestly, Tullian is way more of a mess than I would have guessed, lol.

Tullian

“Um..him?” The girl drops the hand of the terror-stricken man.

No, not him. I didn’t know you were holding hands.

“Oh, I was talking about that guy.” Great. Now she’s annoyed. Really annoyed. And she’s going to take it out on her boyfriend.

“uh, neither, I guess?”

Say something. And not ‘I know how you feel’. People say that all the…[Read more]

“Arsene mentioned food. Let’s go downstairs and see what’s available.” Sir Scary said, tensely, regarding Alessio like he didn’t know what to do about him. It wasn’t like Alessio meant to stare him down but once he held eye contact it was hard for him to look away until the other person did first.

Alessio still couldn’t figure him out. What kin…[Read more]

Val:

“Is that your boyf–b-brother?”

I glance up to see a short man beside me, staring inquisitively.  Immediately, I drop Calix’s hand, face burning.  To think that I’d been casually holding hands with a stranger this whole time….

I glance over at Calix, nervously searching his face.  He glares past me, eyes fix…[Read more]

Caleb shrugged when the Hussar continued to drink.

“Suit yourself.”

Slipping over to the general store, he went over his list. First he needed to find a way home. Simple enough. A tall woman was at the counter reading a catalog.

“Excuse me ma’am.”

She looked up at him.

“Could you tell me if any ships are heading to Koral?”

She smiled…[Read more]

Tullian

A man rolled in, sitting in a chair. It was newer and better designed than any he had seen. He started to wonder what country the man came from, but his thoughts broke off mid-sentence.

pain shot up and down his right leg, overwhelming the other emotions that bombarded him. He categorized them almost unconsciously.

Anger, resentment,…[Read more]

My professor would say that it’s an example a poor graphic design that I must never imitate😆

Much liiiiike:

“Pardon me Ma’am, but are you hungry?”

Leana’s eyes widened, and she looked up to see one of the men. The one who’d given her the bag, and the chocolate. She wanted to scoot back, but Leana already leaned against a wall. “I-” I am.

I don’t trust you. I don’t know what’s happening? I want to wake up. How can this be real? But who do you say all t…[Read more]

My regular joke has never worked this well. Mara looks as though she’s seen as ghost. Usually, people just laugh and ignore it for the rest.

”Isaias always talked about miracles. He said they were still possible, but I didn’t believe him. But —“ Mara’s eyes are wide with shock as she gestures toward my legs. They still ache, t…[Read more]

Crimes committed by group one characters in Character Castle 2.5.

Sherlock: Blackmail, reckless endangerment, assault, possession of an unregistered weapon, intimidation, conspiracy, verbal abuse (could probably think of more crimes).

Alessio: Possession of an unregistered weapon, carrying a concealed weapon, assault, theft, threating…[Read more]

Hades didn’t know how long that would shut Sherlock up, but it worked temporarily. Now, he had to deal with Alessio, who was staring at him with the look his little sister often gave him. He probably should say something. But what?

“Arsene mentioned food. Let’s go downstairs and see what’s available.”

Arsene had skipped down to the hallway to…[Read more]

(I thought it was Sasa Lele. 😄)

Leana would have thought it was Sasa Lele, shyly, like Alessio. If… she could read. 🙁
She might be inclined to think they’re just ugly curly-cues… that… might have been supposed to be pretty?

“BURN?!” Squeaked a girl who both looked petite and capable of punching a draekon if it looked sideways at her.

“SEARCH?!” Blurted the Blind Guy. Oh…yes. Yes he wanted to see where this was going.

“What are you doing here?” Burn fumbled waving his arm and narrowly missing a glass. Nathair watched them with bated breath, now he had not one – but…[Read more]

HIIII WELCOME BACK!! Oh no!! I hope your ankle feels better quickly!

Whew sorry about the long absence y’all I had an absolute chaos of a weekend, in a good way XD

I’ll try to write Frey later or tomorrow! Also, I’ve been SORELY tempted to bring in Malcolm, for those of you who remember him being mentioned. He’s just…[Read more]

“DID HUMANS CARE ABOUT DECENCY WHEN THEY TOOK MY FAMILY?!” Sherlock shouted back, bashing the wall in a fury hard enough Alessio flinched before he could steel himself. “SO WHAT IF I AM NOTHING BUT SPITE?! I WOULD HAVE BEEN A PERFECTLY FINE PERSON IF HUMANS LIKE YOU DIDN’T EXIST!”

What did I do…? Besides which, nobody could actually decide if A…[Read more]

Leana honestly had no idea where to run, after getting down the stairs. Go back to Crorie? No. No. She ran the other way, darting around a man with strange clothes, and into a giant room.

Her jaw dropped and she looked up at the painted ceiling. Three or four houses tall. A giant thing hung from the middle of it, hundreds and hundreds of jewels…[Read more]
