@Mage I dunno about that "soon" thing you speak off (AKA not the next one, unfortunately), but I defnitely need a post in to explain what the heck is going on on Kysaline's side. Thanks for mentionin' that, gotta start plotting.
"Is there a limit to how much living I can live with my life? How will I know if I've gone too far? And why did I spend my life savings on sunglasses for a whale? I shall find the answers... to these questions."
@Tortwag, I have a plan for the future that involves some continuation with Greywood and Kysaline. Not the near future, but the future. I'll pm you later when I get a chance.
I interrupt the regular schedule of events to inform you all that it's @AnarchyWolf's birthday and you should definitely leave him some happy birthday wishes on his wall and here! ^_^
Well, almost a month later from when I said I would post, I finally did! I ended up rereading the SB, falling in love once again with the plot and the characters, and had Ryder realize he's fallen in love with Finnian. All in all, it was a very eventful morning that I do not regret. Also, it was so weird putting "Ryder Salvai" at the top instead of "The Hooded Figure"! I'll get used to it soon, but that will definitely take some time.
*sigh* Well I wrote one post for my other SB, and I've started catching up the other, so I'll be workin' on Kysaline at the same time. The, uh, trip I just had to Cape Town didn't help much for writing, though. Anyway. I'll be back to my usual base of operations by Thursday, and then it's back to the usual. I'll catch up readin' everybody's post while in the plane. I know I'm not posting next, but I'll be either after Anarchy, or after whoever posts after that.
Hope y'all had a good Christmas! Mine was actually decent :3
EDIT: Yeah, found the plan I had for it. Next post's gonna be fun. And I didn't forget the challenge, @Mage. The post is just gonna take a bit less time, and I feel like it's better to start by putting some fuel back in this SB too.
"Is there a limit to how much living I can live with my life? How will I know if I've gone too far? And why did I spend my life savings on sunglasses for a whale? I shall find the answers... to these questions."
@Mage of course. I'm quite behind on YWS because of exams coming up in May. I'm up to date with my work, though, and I'll hopefully get back on here regularly to post (I'm probably going to be able to get in every day from now on).
I presume that after Finnian's done being an absolute wreck trying to deal with emotions, then he'd go about not doing what he's meant to xD. If there's anything wrong with the post, or anything I need to add, just say and I shall.
That post was perfect! ^_^ Who would like to go next? Worse case scenario, I can go - there's probably something I come up with - but I would prefer if someone else went.
...Well, I'd love to be next, so I guess I'll have to work extra fast to find some time to write properly this weekend. I'll read the post I missed after that. I'm... pretty darn behind in YWS as well, and half of me wants to remain behind it seems, as I really want to join the next Last Man Standing despite having won the 2nd round already.
I THINK I'M CRAZIER THAN... ...ME.
EDIT: The, uh, post for Kierce is still fully planned. I just haven't brought myself to write it yet.
"Is there a limit to how much living I can live with my life? How will I know if I've gone too far? And why did I spend my life savings on sunglasses for a whale? I shall find the answers... to these questions."
I can't wait to see what you come up with @Tortwag!
Since Uncle Twaggy's post isn't central to the plot at the moment, he would like to go next? @AnarchyWolf just went, and I went the post before. Like I said, I'm completely fine with posting again - though I would prefer someone else went. @Kelpies, @JuliasSneezer, @Sheyren, @Oswin1800, do any of you want to post next?
If we could get this storybook more active and post some more, I have another plot point we could include. It would be a major one involving Ryder and his past. But I feel like it's currently too soon to include it. If anyone is interested in being the person to help me with the plot point, please mention it. Then I can message you about it; I'm thinking Greywood and/or Elora would be the best picks for it, but the other characters could work as well.
Why do we capital-N Nerds love Mars so much? Because it's beautiful, it's tough, it's buried in our mythic, childhood memories. It's covered with human triumphs but also with sad stories of failure.
Also, it was so weird putting "Ryder Salvai" at the top instead of "The Hooded Figure"! I'll get used to it soon, but that will definitely take some time.
