“You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth, thinking about how you'll escape one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.”
The present & the future are nonexistent to you at this point in your life, because all you are experiencing is the past. The memories of 'what was' haunts you yet again, as you explore the 'why' & the 'how'. You are no longer the age you are, you no longer feel the way you do & you no longer believe the way you do. But, you have been transported to a time that you once regretted, to a time you once promised yourself you would never revisit & to a time you hid, so far in the black abyss of your mind, you never wished to revisit...
The idea is that I will post one prompt each week, in order to give you some ideas to boost character development, and to get those creative juices flowing. Participating is completely optional, but hopefully all of you will consider this an interesting challenge you are willing at least try to complete.
For this first prompt, your character will travel back in time to an event, a moment or a time in their past that they wished to forget. Explore their hardships, their pain, their fears and their regrets. What hardships bombarded them? Who did they love, they hate or want back in the day? What fears and dreams corrupted their lives?
I would love to see what you come with, so please tag your para with #bmprompt1. You can write this prompt in any way, shape or form you want. And please remember to have fun & good luck!
