We’re all too familiar with this.

That is the single greatest moment of panic I’ve ever experienced.

You know that type of laughter that starts off as a small chuckle but kinda builds up inside your throat, eventually mounting into a full blown, bent over yourself, holding your stomach as you guffaw uproariously? Yeeeep.

There are photos that tell a story, then there are photos that tell a story.

can we take a moment to just think about how incredibly scary magical healing is in-context?

You get your insides ripped open but your friend waves his hands and your flesh just pulls back together, agony and evisceration pulling back to a ‘kinda hurts’ level of pain and you’re physically whole, with the 100% expectation that you’ll get back up and keep fighting whatever it was that struck you down the first time.

You break your arm after falling somewhere and after you’re healed instead of looking for ‘another way around’ everybody just looks at you and goes “okay try again”.

You’ve been fighting for hours, you’re hungry, thirsty, bleeding, crying from exhaustion, and a hand-wave happens and only two of those things go away. you’re still hungry, you’re still weak from thirst, but the handwave means you have ‘no excuse’ to stop.

You act out aggressively maybe punch a wall or gnash your teeth or hit your head on something and it’s hand-waved because it’s ‘such a small injury you probably can’t even feel it anymore’ but the point was that you felt it at all?

Your pain literally means nothing because as long as you’re not bleeding you’re not injured, right? Here drink this potion and who cares about the emotional exhaustion of that butchered village, why are you so reserved in camp don’t you think it’s fun retelling that time you fell through a burning building and with a hand-wave you got back up again and ran out with those two kids and their dog? 

Older warriors who get a shiver around magic-users not because of the whole ‘fireball’ thing but the ‘I don’t know what a normal pain tolerance is anymore’ effect of too much healing. Permanent paralysis and loss of sensation in limbs is pretty much a given in the later years of any fighter’s life. Did I have a stroke or did the mage just heal too hard and now this side of my face doesn’t work? No i’m not dead from the dragon’s claws but I can’t even bend my torso anymore because of how the scar tissue grew out of me like a vine.

Magical healing is great and keeps casualties down.

But man.

That stuff is scary.

That moment when you love a line in the story and everyone in critique group loves the line, but then one person says, 'well if you took out the line it'd make it more creepy and foreboding'. like, yes, yes it does make it more like that and makes the story more interesting with that question of what the thing actually is and it's probably better that way and sounds less like other stories in the genre but YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT LINE D:

Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? That depends a good deal on where you want to get to. I don’t much care where. Then it doesn’t much matter which way you go.

Novel and Character Aesthetics

Recently, my friends have been posting their novel aesthetics. They’re all so beautiful and just aesthetics are amazing. So, I’ll be posting some of mine along with their character aesthetics.

I don’t post on here near enough as I’d like, but here’s hoping to fix that!

Some of us write to entertain.

Some of us write to inspire. Some of us write to educate. And some of us write to deceive.

Some of us write to realize who we are. Some of us write and realize who we are. Some of us write, realize who we are, And become afraid of ourselves.

Some of us write because we can. Some of us write because we want to. Some of us write because we must, And some of us write because we shouldn’t.

Some of us write, and succeed. Some of us write, and fail. Some of us write, or succeed. And some of us write, or fail.

PSA: Protectful is now a word. It's basically the same thing as protective, but looks cooler. Also, your tired brain will come up with it when you can't remember protective. Jsyk.

Word count for day 2: 4,101

Hopefully I can keep an average of about 2k a day. That would be really nice considering I won’t get as many words during work days and being out of town for Thanksgiving.
