Wow. Like really all I have to say. Wow.
That argument was much better built than my own.
Again, one more time I say, Wow.
Ditto. What she said.

Oh, these are awesome topics! I’m excited…
Okay, so to begin, I’m going to add my own to cents to this argument. @crazywriter, I agree with what you’ve said so far. (some debate this makes lol)
I think that cussing in books by the worldly standard, i.e. by using known expletives that I will not name because I’m a…[Read more]

(Now I’m doing it again … when I have no clue what to do with my characters, I guess I just slap on an existential crisis. Huh.)
😀 😀 😀 SAMMMMEEEEEE MY FRIEND. Yila keeps having bizarre emotional crises and I have yet to figure out if that’s her character or my boredom… XD

Well, I think he’s less believable, less likeable, and less of a character. So, all around generally worse? LOL. You said something dangerous back there, though; someday I might take you up on your wish to read Quin’s canon story…when I get it done, lol. I’m only 16K into it so far, but, yeah. Have you started Niarok and Yila’s…

“No.”
The word was not harsh, nor was it meant to be crushing, but it mercilessly extinguished the hope that had, unbeknownst to him, been flaming in Rúan’s chest.
He nearly dropped Leaghadh.
Instead, he lowered his sword slowly, keeping his elbow locked at his hip. He tried to suck in deep breaths through his nose, but instead, whirled arou…[Read more]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you should copy-and-paste every so often, so at least some of it is on your clip-board.
See, I always do that when I’m writing actual character entries cuz I’ve lost too many sweet moments between characters and been unable to recapture them. But I never do that when I’m just talking. And then of…[Read more]

Niarok was standing in front of him, holding a bundle of dry clothes. He looked at them for a minute, wishing he didn’t have to take them. He reached out and his hands closed on the coarse cloth. His fingers felt warmer, just touching it.
He strode past Niarok into the shadows and pulled the tunic over his head. It felt strange, compared…[Read more]

As Niarok approached Ayden, Ruan appeared in the space between them, his sword bared.
He winced from the pain in his calf.
Niarok winced along with him. He really really really didn’t want to give stitches to the man who clearly felt betrayed already. The needle would just seal that for all of them.
“Assassins,” he said. His voice wasn’t accus…[Read more]

(All right, I’m just going to pretend that Rúan had grabbed his sword)
Rúan felt the ground rumble under his feet, and he jumped nearly half an inch off the ground.
Then a voice that seemed to echo in his head and reverberate around the cavernous room declared, “I’ve been thinking about the next challenge, and it occured to me that sever…[Read more]

“Leaghadh,” Rúan corrected with a quirk of his lips. “It is hard to pronounce if you are not raised with the Kindran language. It took me while to master it.”
Certainly it was. I had no idea where to begin on it and spelling it would be an entire seperate nightmare.
He sheathed his sword, thank goodness.

Ruan’s story is so tangible and it makes me want to give him a big hug lol.
He’d probably kill me, but that’s okay. I would die for a good cause. XD
(Ahw, I’m glad you feel that way!)
