Thank you! XD *cue all the dramatic music*

And oooh, that’s so cool! @joelle-stone, if everyone else is good with Ian having one of the arrows, that’d be great because I totally don’t have a plan for him. 

*cough*

Awesome pooooost, Joelle!

And yes – I don’t think we’ve formerly met. *sweeps of hat with a bow* *realizes I’m not wearing a hat* *sheepishly grins* Anyway, hi! I’m Mischievous Thwapling (or Catherine – whatever you wish to call me). Nice to meet you!

AHHHH I LOVE YOUR NEW PROFILE PIC – I’M ASSUMING YOU DREW IT? WHO’S IT OF???????

But after a moment she was jumping to her feet and running over to the pointy-eared fellow, the one who talked all elegantly and mysteriously.

Ian’s…[Read more]

*strokes chin and reads posts* Interesting, interesting… SHAPESHIFTERS!

*looks around*

What’d I miss? Did Zanar die some terrible fate?

Thx! And yes, I get the busy thing. It’s hard for me to remember to jump onto SE anymore.

Noticed no one’s really been able to critique your story yet, so Imma jump in and do that 😉

Hm… You just described her as a woman, now grown up, when she was startled by her reflection, so maybe saying “at the young woman” would be better than girl 🙂 Just a thought. *shrugs*

It’s hard for me to explain, but something about…[Read more]

One thing I’m noticing is that everyone seems pretty excited to post their story, but not a lot of people are critiquing other stories… Don’t mean to be bossy, but perhaps if you are posting parts of your story, you can make it a point to give feedback on at least one person’s story? 🙂 ‘Cause if hardly anybody’s critiquing, stories…[Read more]

Heeey!!

Yeah, I’m good with whatever we do for the POVs–I honestly don’t care XD Though, yes, third POV would definitely be less confusing when/if we turn this story into a book.

*returns @joelle-stone‘s glance* *nods vigorously* YES. Turning RPs into manuscripts that even remotely resemble books is so messy and difficult, l…[Read more]

*arches eyebrows* No promises.…  XD

Lol XD I was like, “Hey, wait a sec, I don’t have a character named Ian in my WIP!” So I deleted it *facepalm*

OOOOH, good points!

Aw, thanks! (I just hope it isn’t dead, lol…. Only three of us–counting me–seem to be posting right now)

@jasmine

I second what Joelle said about her sounding awesome 😉

Ahh, okay, thx!

True, that could end up being repetitive!!

*hopes with you*

Zanar: 

Zanar was starting to wish he had stayed out of those drainage tunnels. Then, he’d probably be at home right now, safe and sound.

But nope.

He’d been an idiot. And now he was paying the price in some weird, twisted, talking castle.

He watched helplessly as Drone Destroying Dude–hadn’t he said his name wa…[Read more]

Kalmar glanced up when he heard that crazy red-haired girl giggling something with the word “Caitir” in it. It tickled the back of his mind, but he couldn’t remember why it sounded so familiar. He turned to Janner, about to ask if he recognized it, too, when Arundelle…[Read more]

I hope it isn’t dead…. 

Aha! Thou hast been brave and started RP-ing again! (and no problem, lol, the southern accent is hilarious)

In answer to your way earlier questions:

“1. Does he have any opinions about Elves/Hhborgens/Puppies/anything-else that we should know about?
2. Is he normally hospitiable/ready to jump in, or…[Read more]

AFTER ALL THE PAINFUL WORLD-BUILDING/PLANNING/FIGURING-EVERYTHING-OUT (which I’m not very good at, considering I have panster leanings XD), THIS STORY IS NOT DYING, OKAY?

YOU GUYS ARE NOT DISAPPEARING.

WE ARE GOING TO WRITE THIS STORY, AND IT IS GOING TO BE AWESOME. 

Understood?

Good.

@joelle-stone @winter_rose @melodyjoy

*sheepish grin* Why, hello there. Your RP-ing call summoned me.

I second Rose’s questions. 🙂

@winter_rose

Uh, Idk…. I didn’t know that was the plan–but I can do so with no problem!

GTG now, critique later

Note: Suggestions are in bold

This sentence feels a little wordy, so maybe you could reword it to something like: “…. but she did not wrap her extremely tattered, dark-colored cloak tighter around herself.” Or something like that, anyway 😀

This is sentence above is kinda long and confusing, so maybe something more like: “Her…[Read more]

I notice you use the same phrase “creasing her brow.” It felt slightly repetitive.

I love your cliff hanger ending, and how you smoothly portray Nadia as a… *thinks of word* kinda someone who looks out for Ada? Am I interrupting that correctly?

Sorry this critique is short–I’m just not finding any “problems” in y’alls wonderful s…[Read more]

Critique time!! The beginning of your story feels a little a little abrupt, but that might be just because you wanted it to start fast paced?

You do a really great job of portraying Esthelle’s confusion!!

And that ending to your first post of the story? The Do not tell them who you are part? Such a cool cliff hanger!! Cannot wai…[Read more]

OF COURSE WE’VE MISSED YOU!!

@Everyone:

Okay, good to know! (About your critiquing preferences)

@melancholicwriter

Okay, critique. Um, you never mentioned where the main character and the other guy are, or what the main character’s name is, or anything for readers to go on. Do you get into that later, since this is a…[Read more]

LOL XD Like, dare Liorah to do something on this thread, or make Zanar dare Liorah to do something on the Character Castle 2.0 after the trap is done?

Perfectly understandable!! 😉

To kinda echo what Joelle said earlier: How detailed of a critique do y’all want? Like.. concept? Or more of a grammatical/line-by-line type thingy?

Awww, thx! *grins*

*imagines her doing that* *kinda wants to see that in real life* Now I really wanted to dare her to do something. Like a lot. XD

@erynne

Thx!! And ha, I know that feeling 😛

When I read that, the first answer that popped into my head, without me thinking about or hesitating was: Me. XD

OOooohhhhh, so that means Ferran is with a SHAPE-SHIFTER?? *is giddy* That’s a really cool idea. Are you good with it, @rose-colored-fancy? Rusted Knight, if Klein is with Zanar and Riure, are you good with the challenge that Joelle suggested they have to complete? Or would you rather the three do something else to escape the…[Read more]

*nods slowly*

Also, still up for the meeting today? At 4:00 pm your time? I think can make it, but if not I will tell you 😉

Haha, great minds think alike, don’t they? 😉 Okay, I’ll try to post soon then! *realizes I said that last time* *makes mental note to write a reminder*

And gotcha!

Right, Ian is a human. And yurp, I believe that was the plan!!

*grins* I like questions, so hit me with as many as you want! 😛

Happy (late, very late) Easter!!!

@rebekah12 @birds-rock @ivi-hope and Joelle:

Do we still need this, since we’re moving to a different doc instead? (That is the plan, right???)

Nice to have you join us!! (Rebekah, chapter 57??!! *grins at you* W.O.W) I’ll try to critique in a bit (perhaps today or on Tuesday). And @skylarynn, yay, nice! I love how nicely you incorporated the critiques from earlier. *nods* I really like it and the new bit you posted! (As I said, I’ll try to critique later 🙂 )

@joelle-stone @kylie-wingfeather

I call her Mama Meat because *pauses to glare at said mother, with whom I still have a squabble with* *continues* I call her Mama Meat because… because… I CAN AHA! *starts laughing* *realizes no on is…[Read more]

Love your guys’ riddles!! So cool 🙂

*realizes that you’ve probably been waiting for me to respond before continuing to some degree* *yelps* *hurries onto SE* OooooOOOooh, I like all of those options! *imagines a miniature Riure and Zanar running around* *bursts into snort-y giggles* *gets control of self* Which option on your list do you like the best?

Also, IDK if…[Read more]

*nods* Of course! And if you need a helping-hand post to get him moving, I can pop in 😉

So sry, but I won’t be able to make it to our meeting today!! See you on Monday, unless something comes up on your end XD (or on mine, for that matter, lol)

Hehe, inside joke, sry. 😛 Kinnan and I (at least me for sure XD) are still a little unused to the fact our confusing jokes are now broadcasted in regular conversations XD

Also, I saw the pick, and LOL XD that’s hilarious!!!

(And now this conversation is needless b/c we saw BR yesterday, lol)

Oohhh, definitely Safina. Actually I think she does dance in public at one point…

Who would be most likely to eat an entire tube of toothpaste (or something like that) on a dare? 

Thank you!! As I’ve said before, I adore yours, too. 🙂

And, yes, as Joelle Stone explained so well, it’s a bunch of inside jokes XD She and I have known each other outside of SE and the old Wingfeather site, so we’ve accumulated many inside jokes/conversations XD

@joelle-stone

XD Poor Meat….I still strongly dislike Mama…[Read more]

LOL, that’s pretty good too, though! So then, Anonymous Cow is no longer anonymous? (Which name is he, btw?)

AHHhhhhhhh! FAVORITE LIBRARIAN NO!! *calms down* In all honesty, though, I’m glad it was mostly cosmetic!!

Oof. XD Agreed.
