FIRST LINES TAG GAME

Rules: Post the first few lines from one of your WIPs; this could be first sentences of the whole story, a chapter of your choice or just from the most recent writing session

i was tagged by @joswriting and decided to go a bit overboard and share the first lines of the first ten chapters of Lay Me Down (plus my little extra bits). so. enjoy!

INTRO POEM: SONG OF THE WOODS

First I'll sing of ghosts my love Of first and dying breaths

Next I'll sing of heroes dear And how they fall in death

INTERLUDE ONE: SWORD AND SHADOW

Once there was a woman, a wood, and the end of the world.

CHAPTER ONE

It begins like this: fifty years after the end of the world there is a girl running through the forest.

CHAPTER TWO

When she wakes up everything is dark, and it takes a second of panic to realize that it’s because she’s lying face down in the dirt.

CHAPTER THREE

Pallas should have killed the girl.

CHAPTER FOUR

Amidst choking wilderness The Library stands as a lone sentinel, stone walls and spires reaching to a sky that would otherwise remain unseen.

CHAPTER FIVE

The voice is what reaches her first.

INTERLUDE TWO: LOCK AND KEY

Once there was a door in the woods

CHAPTER SIX

Library days are long, and Library days are slow.

CHAPTER SEVEN

If there’s anything Pallas could not have predicted it was this: Agnes-Maria White is not a fool.

CHAPTER EIGHT

It is only later, walking back to her room, that they are able to comprehend the depth of what they’ve done.

CHAPTER NINE

This is the test, Agnes thinks. These are the rules.

CHAPTER TEN

Back in her hole the woman called the Director shakes her hand with fingers cold as steel and smiles at her with teeth straight as tombstones and Agnes spends the entire time staring at the sword hanging just above the chair she sits in, wondering what it must have taken to anchor something like The Library.

i'll tag @kiki-is-writing @ashfordlabs @flowerprose and @serenanymph (no pressure obviously!)

Edit since a lot of people seem confused - your "real" name is the name that you want to be referred to in real life. It doesn't have to be your legal name. So if you're trans and you have a different name to whats on your birth certificate, even if not many people call you by the name, it still counts as your real name.

Edit 2 : Holy shit guys please stop reblogging this post my poor inbox im getting like 20 notifs an hour asjfhkajshdkh /lh /srs

#FUN FACT : charlie isnt my real name :] #i decided to go with the name charlie because i didnt wanna use my real name and i like the name charlie #my parents were gonna call me charlie when i was born but didnt in the end #i dont really know why i dont just tell you lot my real name because its a super common name #another thing that using a diff name online has caused is me seeing “charlie” almost as a different person #theres “[wearegonnapretendiputmyrealnamehere]” and then theres “Charlie” and they are two different people in my mind #idk aksjffhkajsshdka #anyways this is the second poll ive made today what is my deal with polls #i should make a seperate poll tag for all my fucking polls that i make #I MAKE A LOT #ill tag all my polls when i think of a good name lol #anyways woah i got a bit rambly there #did i make a whole ass poll just because i thought you might find it interesting that my real name wasnt charlie? #yes. yes i did. #(DO NOT take this as me not wanting you lot to call me charlie i would prefer you use that name over anything else lol) #polls #tumblr polls #random polls

Neopets is so funny right now. It's a 24-year-old website and half its pages haven't been updated in 15 years. Its ostensible audience is children. The core active audience appears to be nostalgic 20-40-year-olds. Old code means no accounts or pets can ever be renamed. The virtual pound is full of virtual pets named after Justin Bieber. It has an economy and inflation is rampant. New ownership is combating this with the stimulus of random super-rare items via daily quests and events, while the equivalent of Neopian Upper-Crust complain that their investments are deflating. You can't say seaweed or grapes.

#I'm having so much fun #Neopets #anyway hey if you used to play it's still around and apparently the first new plot in years will happen spring/summer of next year #I mean it's really weird because it's still got rules like it's 2004 #I have no idea how you would introduce it to an actual child but the adults seem to be mostly having fun #recent events have been making it SUPER easy for ppl to get paint jobs they want & expensive items to sell & things to collect so it's fun

This collab ended up even bigger than the last year's one. When last year we mainly had only Dream Friends (with some special guests like Morpho, Galacta and Elfilin), this year we've got characters from many more groups, including villains! We've almost left no one behind lol

The image above might be a bit scuffed (anti-AI protection, and all that), but no worries! You can click on it to see full, uncompressed image and see everyone's work that's been put into this!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who participated, and to everyone who wanted but either learned about it too late or didn't manage - don't worry!

Bowser: *adjusts his bowtie before holding out his hand* Let's rule the world, together. Forever. Will you marry me?

Luigi: *staring at Bowser with an annoyed expression as he's tied to a chair and also wearing Peach's dress and wig*

#bowser #bowser nintendo #bowser my beloved #luigi #luigi nintendo #luigi my beloved #bowuigi #bowser x luigi #super mario #super mario bros #super mario movie #super mario bros movie #the super mario bros movie #mario movie spoilers #super mario movie spoilers #not sure if it counts as spoilers but I'll put the spoiler tags anyway #so fun fact: when I first saw that scene where Bowser was practicing his marriage proposal I thought we were going to have a Bowuigi moment #like no joke my dudes #after Bowser asked the big question I genuinely thought that it was going to pan to Luigi tied up in a chair (with an unamused expression) #you can imagine my disappointment when it instead panned to Kamek wearing Peach's dress and wig #now don't get me wrong while I did enjoy seeing Kamek crossdressing #it just would've been so much funnier and really adorable if Bowser was practicing his proposal to Luigi #especially since Luigi was barely in the movie at all #but that's a conversation for another day #maybe #anyway enjoy the Bowuigi scene that could've been but Nintendo and Illumination were too afraid to do :)

Hold me one more time, so that I never forget how it felt to hug the sun

#warrior cats #warriors #thunderclan #firestar #sandstorm #firesand #I should’ve probably waiting to take the picture in the morning #so that the lighting would be better #but I loved how it came out #so I’m posting anyways #also sorry for the increase of #firesand content #just been thinking about them a lot recently #drew these with cheap color pencils #9 colors in total- but it was fun being limited yknow #i drew it on a 3 hour bus ride from Pompeii to Rome yay #in my dorm I have this super fancy color pencil set I got for my birthday #like senior year hs #but couldn’t bring it with me on the trip

[egophiliac]

so on the subject of the "Crowley is secretly Revaan/Laverne/Levin/please Twst give us his name" theory, I think my feelings are best summed up as "I don't really buy it, but it's funny". like, in all seriousness, I'm not opposed to it; I have enjoyed the writing in Twst so far and I'm willing to trust that whatever happens will, you know, make sense and not be terrible. but I'm just not really convinced by the current evidence! maybe that'll change once we learn more, we'll see!

with that said, may I propose a few alternate theories about the possible Crowley/Revaan connection:

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #on this installment of things nobody asked but i'm going to talk about anyway #disclaimer that this is mostly a joke please don't get mad at me #(legit no shade to anyone) (speculation is one of the fun things about an ongoing fandom and you never know what'll turn out to be true!) #more seriously i do think there may be some connection that just isn't clear yet #but the more little breadcrumbs we get about what revaan was like the more i think crowley just doesn't act like him #i adore crowley don't get me wrong #(yes he's a dipshit. this is a feature not a bug.) #but like. #not to harp on the scene about lilia's nrc invitation (i am absolutely going to harp on it) #i do not believe that crowley would go through the trash to fish out the pieces and put them back together and save them #just because it was lilia's. just because lilia might want it again someday. #crowley can ✨yasashii✨ all he wants but we know what he's like #and i REALLY do not believe that lilia wouldn't recognize him. i didn't believe it before and i extra don't believe it now. #then again i do tend to be incredibly off about speculation so! who knows! i will trust the writing for now! #i do 100% believe that meleanor would fall in love with the world's biggest dumbass and then double down super hard. that part tracks. #that said i have decided that ambrose being revaan is actually the funnier option just because it would make crowley SO mad #it wouldn't make sense for him to be mad about it and that would just make him madder
