No problem, i still love Koalario, it was fun photoshopping the other ones as well.

 

Guys I have a sock now

 

Tell us all about it.

 

I have to wait for it to get approved and it might take a while because the email I used for it is low-key broken so it's complicated to get to it

 

Also why is milk so disgusting but lowkey soothing at the same time like I hate it but on some level it's kinda nice

 

Finally caught up, my body decided to sleep in until ten again so I didn’t have time to catch up before church

Hope you stay safe @Emperor Ferus

 

You know I might have something for that

 

@FLEX TAPE, Phil's cheating on you again!

 

Cheating? What is Flex Tape if reserved for only one person?

I like your moxie kid! Care about becoming one of my acolytes? I could use a new body sometime before Halloween comes around...

 

Ey, nice, done 3000 words today and my chapter is done! Writing a very sad discussion scene was kind of tough, but then I got to write the shorter framing sequences for my flashbacks, which were more upbeat to balance it out a little

Next chapter I have planned is rather a mashup of lots of different elements, so I'll have to make sure that none of the various characters get too lost in it

 

Tough because it was sad or just because it was hard to write?

Fun fact I have made myself cry with my own writing once

 

I’ve probably done that by reading my awful school papers

 

Little of both, I did tear up a tiny bit at one point

Usually though the hardest part I find is figuring out how to frame long sections of dialogue - like, what to do in the filler between two people talking for instance. I always feel like my vocabulary is too limited to describe moments like that, so it always feels kinda samey (though I'm sure a lot of people might not even notice )

 

Yeah that's always kinda tough One time though I was writing a fic about Clint Barton and his family and stuff and I had this long, serious dialogue over phone call between he and his wife while he's in the car. At one point in the dialogue I was totally stuck and I had no idea how to advance the scene, so I had Clint's GPS cut him off while he was talking, like just to add some narration to the dialogue, but when Ellie read it she freaked out for like a full minute over how realistic and relatable that was I guess it's just like mundane stuff like that that makes it flow kinda

 

No but like the scene was so sad though I was writing it about like Poe's childhood (well for part of it) and his mom dies when he's nine years old and it was just the saddest scene ever.

It's so sad

 

@El Jedi Colombiano you've been quiet lately
