Winter Rose

“As fascinating as conversations regarding modern lands during the Middle Ages may be, we do have more important subjects in desperate need of discussing, do we not?” Rupert said.

“Right, sorry,” Hermione said, blushing. “We really do need to focus at a time like this.”

Rupert nodded and turned to Mercedes, Gabi, and Lia.

“It’s safer if you th…[Read more]

(REPOST)

This is sort of what I pictured Vee looking like, but she’s a slightly lighter shade of silver.

@rebekah12

I think your most recent post may have been deleted.

Mine was, so if you can get your post back up I’ll go ahead and get my post back up.

(I posted this several days ago but a bunch of posts got deleted, so here it is again.)

OSIRIS

Osiris stepped off of his spaceship’s boarding ramp and onto the Resilience, a gigantic star ship and the host of the Cullings.

Here I am.

Everyone on his planet had been dreaming of this opportunity since they day they were old enough to u…[Read more]

@melody-joy

Yeah, that makes sense.

I’m fine with either PoV.

@melody-joy @joelle-stone

Third-person might be better just so things aren’t too confusing, but I was thinking of doing Sikya from 3rd and Osiris from 1st.

One thing I’m confused about: are the players selected by the government to compete, or was there a championship to determine who goes to the games? Or does it vary from country to…[Read more]

Sorry for the wait, I’ve been busy too. 😅

“And where is this?” The girl called Lia asked after Mercedes had introduced herself.

Those around the room glanced at each other.

“We call it the Castle. But we don’t know very much else about this place,” Hermione said.

“You seem to know your ways around here a little better than we do,” Gabi a…[Read more]

@emma-walker

That’s all right.

The ship lifted off of the ground and quickly rose into the atmosphere.

Solstice watched as it left her and the others behind, trying to work through her tangle of emotions about being left behind.

“What do we do now, General?” Bo’ asked Zeinli. The remaining clones began falling back to Zeinli as the wol…[Read more]

@joelle-stone

I can write a bit, but I’m not exactly sure where on the timeline to start. Should it be when the characters win the spot in the Cullings, or should it be more like right when all the players are boarding the Resilience?

Oh, and is everyone writing in first person?

@joelle-stone

Ok, sorry I just wasn’t sure exactly how I would start something like that.

Okay. Are @wingiby-iggiby and @melodyjoy still with us?

The door slammed open, and two girls jumped into the room, weapons held at the ready. The one with auburn hair brandished her sword menacingly, and the blond girl was poised with an arrow feather at her cheek.

Hermione jumped back and grabbed her wand, but the two new girls seemed to relax after seeing everyone in the room.

“Mercedes, I t…[Read more]

@rebekah12

It’s kind of complicated because there are three different Machas all derived from the same basic person, but I think you’re right. One of the Machas has two sisters: “Badb and Morrigu, whose name was Anand”. And uh…. oh, she’s described as one of three Morrigna. I’m kinda just quoting wikipedia here.

But you’re right, it is very li…[Read more]

@melancholicwriter

Yep, you can bring in as many characters as you can keep track of.

~~~

The new girl, Mercedes, sighed. “This isn’t like the last time I’ve been taken from my world,” she said.

Hermione perked up at this.

“You’ve left your world before?” Hermione asked curiously, and Mercedes nodded. “What was it like? Was it anything at all…[Read more]

@melancholicwriter

Oh ok, thanks. Just had to make sure I didn’t need to write from any of my character’s PoVs.

@melancholicwriter

Using your own character is perfectly fine. Is the boy she ran into any specific character?

Oh, Mercedes is such an awesome name! And her story sounds really interesting…

Also, I forgot to mention, at this moment Harry, Ron, Kalmar, and Rex (a Star Wars character brought in by @wingiby-iggiby) are off looking for snacks.

@melancholicwriter

I’m not sure exactly what you mean, sorry, but I don’t think so?
