OC Height Tag
Thanks to @oh-no-another-idea for the tag!
Rules: Describe or show your characters' heights. (I used this site!)
I did this with the Band - sadly there weren't any with wings for Kai, and I couldn't use any of the ones with bows for Phoenix because they messed up the proportions of the lineup, but other than that I love how this came out!
Tagging @new-royston-cursebreakers @druidx and anyone else who wants to!
Find the Word Tag
Tagged by @charlesjosephwrites, thanks!
My words are miracle, wind, pitch, and house, and here are some snippets from some Five Man Band stuff I've been working on!
Miracle
(this is actually from you'd have to stop the world, but let's ignore that)
It was all a series of miracles - after the good half of the county burnt down, I was shocked that there was a farm still running, and even more shocked that it was actively hiring.
Wind
That's a long-winded way of saying that the new member is trans, but okay.
Pitch
(also from you'd have to stop the world)
"Hello, boy," an older voice says, high pitched and with a thick West Country accent. "Hello, Old Lady-" another voice starts, which I assume belongs to the bald guy that went in.
House
"Nope - you're a sucker for the rules, and in this house, the driver picks the music and the passenger princess puts up with it!"
Tagging - @oh-no-another-idea, @druidx, @primroseprime2019, and anyone else who wants to! Your words are beg, time, dream, and music!
Find the Word Tag
Thanks for the tag, @oh-no-another-idea!
My words are orange, change, note, and whiskers, and I'm using some snippets from some Five Man Band stories I've been working on!
---
Orange
Then the door swings open, and an uncomfortably familiar bundle of orange hair steps into the room.
Change (changing)
I tried to ask her what it meant once, but she just laughed and told me that it reminded her of something special to her, before changing the subject.
Note
"This is freaky as hell," they mutter, and I hum a low note in agreement.
Whiskers
"Absolutely not." I shudder at the thought of the feeling of a ball of fur and whiskers brushing against me at all hours of the day. "I- uh. I'm allergic," I lie.
Tagging (no pressure!) - @charlesjosephwrites @druidx @primroseprime2019 @new-royston-cursebreakers and anyone else who wants to!
Your words are wonder, leap, charm, and why!
WIP Whenever Tag
Tagged by the amazing @druidx (I think it might have been a sideblog, but I hope you're ok with me tagging your main!)
Rules: Share a line or paragraph from something you recently worked on. If it's on Wednesday - great! If no, no worries :) (it's Friday night and I have a weird burst of energy, so I'm embracing the "whenever"!)
I'm going to share a snippet from a short story I wrote a while ago about Kai and Phoenix's first meeting!
(For context, he's watching a Doctor Who episode, which is the interjections in italics)
---
For the next couple of minutes, I just sit there, basking in my achievement and forcing myself to try and forget about my sense of normalcy crashing down around me.
Don't turn your back.
I think I can hear voices.
Don't look away.
The main door of the base just opened. They're back.
And don't blink.
I point the screwdriver at the door, quickly shutting it before anyone can see me in here.
Good luck.
The Doctor's face disappears, and I turn the laptop off. I tuck my wings in and curl up to try and avoid being visible from the door. I don't expect them to come in here, but if they do then I don't want them to see me.
"....and in here, this is the lab..." I hear Riley's voice, mufflled by the thick door, and an unfamiliar voice responds. "...kind of things do you..." they ask, and I curl myself up tighter.
"I can show you if you want," Riley says, and I jump as I hear the sound of numbers being punched into the keypad.
I pull out the screwdriver, and point it over to the door. I've never tested it with the door actively trying to open, but there's a first time for everything.

Specified Line Tag
Thanks for the tag, @oh-no-another-idea, sorry it took me so long to get to!
Rules: Find a line in your WIP that fits each of the parameters given to you, then give new prompts for the people you tag <3
Doing this with some lines from an old self-indulgent precursor to my current untitled Kai-focused WIP set in the FMB universe!
---
A line about family
"You were never my family, Rowan. My real family are here. Without you."
A line with a joke
"Oh, I- I'd kill you if I could," he mutters, and I choke out a laugh as I repond. "Well, points for self awareness, I guess."
A sad line
"Why would I be lying? She was meaningless, she had no use to us, she was nothing. I hope she's still down there, rotting in the ocean where I left her."
A line featuring an animal
I lean back and stare at the screen, grabbing an old stuffed bear I got when I was four and losing myself in the most terrifying monologue ever written.

Thanks for the tag, @primroseprime2019!
Going to do this with the still-untitled angsty Five Man Band story I'm writing :)
The corriodr loops around to where I need to be, just taking a bit longer, so I pick up the pace; both to escape Revelation, and to not be late (not that anyone told me what time I was supposed to be there). Eventually, I hang a right and see a small crowd of people hanging around outside the entrance to the chamber; I recognise most of them as other taskforce leaders, and my eyes light up as I see Jae Woods, a light manipulator, the leader of Taskforce Elemental, and my closest friend outside of the Band. "Jae!" I run over. "Ri! What took you so long?" Their eyes light up as I approach, and I smile. "Ugh. Run-in with Revelation, you know how it is." Their eyes narrow in disgust. "Oh God. What did they do?" "Thomas tried to hit me, I just threw the three of them out of the way." "Nice, nice." They grin. I glance around at the others - there are about half a dozen people here, and none of them seem to know what's going on.

OC Deep Dive tag
Tagged by @zinabug-writes (ages ago, sorry) thanks for that!
I'm going to answer this with Kai from Five Man Band!
---
What common/uncommon fear do they have?
He's scared of losing his humanity or who he is
Do they have any pet peeves?
People being late or changing plans last minute
What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom?
Posters for every kind of pop culture references you can think of , his "lightsaber" (just a sword that he built that glows ), and books about engineering or physics
What do they notice first in a person?
What they're wearing and what that says about them
On a scale from 1-10, how high is their pain tolerance?
Probably around an 8
Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure?
I would make a flight joke since he's got wings, but he almost always chooses fight
Do they come from a big family/are they a family person?
He came from a small family, but he doesn't trust them after the whole forced-him-to-move-across-the-world-and-made-him-join-a-cult thing. Which is understandable.
What animal represents them best?
Probably an eagle or something else with wings (unless angels are animals, in which case an angel)
What is a smell they dislike?
He hates the smell of strong perfume
Have they broken any bones?
He's broken his arm once while fighting, but no other times
How would a stranger likely describe them?
Suspicious of new people
Are they a night owl, or morning bird?
He's practically nocturnal
What’s a flavor they hate and a flavor they love?
He loves strawberry, and hates coconut
Do they have any hobbies?
He has a "passion project", which is code for his hobby of designing and building fictional weapons and gadgets in real life - his pride and joys are his functioning sonic screwdriver and his lightsaber
Boom, surprise birthday party! How do they react to surprise?
He'd probably be terrified, but when he calms down, he'd probably just be annoyed at whoever surprised him
Do they like to wear jewellery?
He likes the idea in principle, but he rarely wears anything other than his ace ring (black ring on the left middle finger)
Do they have neat or messy handwriting?
He's got very neat, cursive handwriting as a result of growing up in the English primary school system and needing to take meticulous notes as a scientist
What are the two emotions they feel the most?
Annoyance at people not understanding him, and tiredness
Do they have a favourite fabric?
He doesn't have a favourite, but he does have a least favourite - if he wears anything that feels even remotely like denim, then he'll be so uncomfortable that he won't be able to focus on anything else
What kind of accent do they have?
Southern English, not quite RP, but clearly a London accent
