tag game! i’d really like to see more positivity on my dash, and i’d also love to see more writing and quotes from mutuals or anyone in general! so here’s a simple game to spark some compliments and community
rules: if tagged, just reblog with 5 quotes from any of your wips that you’re proud of and compliment at least one quote from the person who tagged you! if you aren’t feeling up to it, don’t feel like you have to.
the quotes can be witty dialogue or a paragraph that you liked the imagery in, whatever works! for the sake of examples i’m gonna use a bunch of random quotes, most of which are incredibly out of context.
1: “...the goddess might impale you with your own teeth..”
2: One day I’ll be stronger, Aralion told herself, twirling the match between her fingers. I’ll be strong enough to put out the flames. But the world crumbled like stiff ash disturbed, and Ara realized, too late, that it had set fire long ago.
3: “I like to compare myself to garbage,” she said, grinning. “Specifically, the kind floating around in the ocean, sweeping everyone around me up and choking them.”
4: “He stares at her, blinking rapidly. “You think I have money?” he demands. Something about the disbelief on his face at having to remind her makes her giggle, and before she knows it, she’s doubling over, overcome with breathy laughter. “In this economy?” Fierro continues, his voice shrill. “What the fuck, Rosie.”
Rosai gets her ice cream, but Basil pays for it, which surprises her. He buys each of them one, although Fierro reveals, after his first bite, that he’s lactose intolerant. Vindex almost has a heart attack.
5: “If Maisy was anything, she was the sound of a field of flowers. Not noiseless, but soft, wind blowing across a million petals and weaving through their stems. Maisy was so different from everyone else. She had no storm, no fire, no cold edge to her eyes, just a quiet smile on her lips and a tiger lily in her hair. Maybe that was why she was so easy to love. Maybe that was why the ones who loved her were prepared to destroy the world for her.”
annnnd i’ll be tagging a few people to get started! if you don’t like to be tagged, don’t hesitate to let me know. you don’t have to drop me any compliments, i’m just trying to get this going! i’ll definitely be reblogging any replies though, so prepare for a lot of compliments from me if you end up participating in this! and if i don’t tag you, feel free to participate anyways. tagging: @shadescrawls @sword-of-stars @lizhly-writes @feathered-inkling @cookiecutterwrites @charvaughn-writes @tenacious-scripturient @manicpixiedreamboots @theirontrashcan @ill-write-when-im-dead
