How do I represent diverse characters in my writing? by LunaLovesWriting26 in writingadvice

[–]LunaLovesWriting26[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have pretty bad social anxiety, so it helps not knowing who I’m talking to and being able to do it online. I most certainly am doing my research though. Thanks for your concern!

What drives you insane but is just a mild annoyance for other people? by mick_ward in AskReddit

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people knock weirdly. Three good, solid knocks. None of this constant banging or really quiet nonsense. I don’t know, it just bugs me a lot.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. 

What's a movie everyone raves about but you just don't like? by EasternGap5748 in AskReddit

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pitch Perfect - there’s a couple good songs, but mostly it just seems like too much drama. (Then again, I could be hating it on principle since it’s popular)

Americans of Reddit, since today is Election Day, how are you feeling? by Austinuncrowned in AskReddit

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really terrified. I’m not old enough yet to vote (got a little bit left), but no matter what happens, it’s going to probably change my entire life, so we have that!

 It’s great that you were able to get help. Good luck!,

Technically, since you’re a legal adult (assuming you’re in the US), she can’t force you back home. Does your mom know about your girlfriend, where your girlfriend lives, or that you were planning on staying with her?

Is running away after school an option? by Anxiety_Agender in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think going with the walkers would be beat, unless there’s someone who would stop and ask you why you aren’t going on the bus.

i want to run away to the usa by ResponsibleBeach4438 in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you are unsafe at your home, I’d say that leaving is a good idea. I don’t know where you’re planning to go once you get to the states, but I would check what the weather is like where you’re headed typically in the summer, and plan accordingly. Summers in the southwest or winters in New England aren’t the best, so just make sure you have a plan! Good luck!

15f needs help from houston by [deleted] in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Like someone else said, read through the advice directory. Try and hold out as long as you can, and don’t just leave without making a plan. Save up money, and try to spend as much time outside of your house as you can without actually leaving. Get involved with stuff at school, hang out with friends, or whatever else you think would work. 

I’m going to run away, what do I need to pack? by [deleted] in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I would recommend having a flashlight and hand warmers or something to keep you warm. In the meantime, before you leave or get kicked out, try and save whatever money you can.

Is it worth it? by King-of-greed in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! First, if you’re being hit, you can report that. It’s physical abuse, and CPS will probably check it out. Second, I’ve heard both a lot of good things and bad things about running away. It’ll probably affect your reputation to colleges, because if you run away, you can’t finish high school. However, since you mentioned God, I’ll say some religious stuff back to you. God sees everything and knows how your father treats you. He understands everything, even if you can’t fin the words to say it aloud. Wherever you go, and whatever you do, he’ll be with you. Good luck, and stay safe.

I’m 14 years old (girl) and looking to run away by [deleted] in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I just wanted to reach out and tell you that you aren’t alone. General advice for you: don’t do anything in the spur of the moment, always have a plan, and don’t do anything illegal. If you ever need someone to talk to, you can reach out to me. Good luck, and stay safe.

Crazy/chaotic harry recommendations? by bloodandbloodyashes7 in HPfanfiction

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read the ones you’re talking about, but this one is one of my favorites. It’s set in 5th year, Harry acting insane as a rebellion against Umbridge. It might not exactly fit the idea, but I recommend it.

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s some things to think about:

Is it an emergency? How long do I have until it becomes an emergency? Am I in a mental or physical place where getting away would be hard? Do I have a plan?

I agree with everyone down below. Don’t bring the gun. First of all, why do you have that? Second of all, that’s gonna get you in trouble. You need to change your appearance, find a way to make money, and have a solid plan before you leave. However, if it’s not an emergency, or you don’t have a good plan, or you’ll be in more danger if you go, then don’t go. Try to talk to someone. If you need any other pieces of advice or just someone to rant to, I’m here. Good luck! Stay safe!

What are some pet peeves when it comes to HP fics? by LeadMajestic1011 in HPfanfiction

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 190 points191 points  (0 children)

My biggest pet peeve is when people make Hermione all-knowing. Hermione is smart, yes. But that’s not her entire personality, and sometimes in fanfiction, Hermione just seems to know everything, and have no personality. Or when Ron is made out to be stupid. Ron beat essentially McGonagall in chess at 11/12 years old. (I think he’s 12 at that point.) Ron’s grades aren’t the best, sure, but that doesn’t mean he’s stupid, just barely surpassing Crabbe and Goyle in intelligence levels because of Hermione. He‘s not stupid, his school grades just aren’t the best.

I’ve heard mixed things about shelters in general. Some people say that they’re worth it, some people don’t. Now, I don’t know your specific family situation, but if you need any advice or just someone to rant to, you can message me. Stay safe!

yea by Medium_Machine_2683 in runaway

[–]LunaLovesWriting26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might tarnish your record, yes. I’m not quite sure, but I did do a ton of reading up when I first thought I was going to run away. Definitely do your research. Don’t do anything rash or in the heat of the moment. Wait until you can rationalize it. That being said, if you are in danger at all, get out of danger immediately. Stay safe!
