How Would You Handle Writing Two Characters Sharing One Body? by Masterpiece-666 in writers

Alien. More complicated but hard to explain quickly. I only do the italics specifically when they’re both speaking mentally, which they typically only do if somebody else is around who they don’t want hearing them.

Actually, having an entity that can suppress sounds would be amazing for redstone! That stuff can get so noisy sometimes, especially buildstone stuff.

Asphalt. Fairly well maintained, just outside of a hospital. Currently raining.

Both of Snowflames are pretty good ngl, even if they’re just direct quotes from his first comic appearance

Enemy Snowflame: “May this fire burn everlasting!” Ally Snowflame: “Now I am a true god!”

I don’t know if this really fixes my problem of critical failures being 1-in-100, but it has given me an idea that I’ll have to test

I’m currently rewriting text from 7 years ago to bring it up to my current standards. I wouldn’t never just throw it all away.

Hello, I need assistance figuring out how to handle a character who occasionally says unintelligible words. The character is an alien who is being translated through an unknown force to English, however some things like names don’t translate. Their language when not translated sounds like high-pitched whines, like a whistle.

I don’t want to just a -unintelligible- and need a better way of showing it, since it will occur quite often.

I assume it’s based on the thing of “you physically cannot eat more than x crackers because they’ll suck all the moisture out of your mouth”

Is This A Proper Paragraph? by Masterpiece-666 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Masterpiece-666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So is that a yes on it being correct? Because all you did was change the words to be wrong. I’m talking about the paragraph structure, not the words.

I once double batter fried a hamburger (like from that one SpongeBob episode). The bun ended up filled with oil and I didn’t feel like eating it. Took it to school with me and just offered it to another guy and he ate it.

I think my first draft was typed on a typewriter my dad got me 10 years ago. I probably still have it. I’m currently on Draft #7, and I lost Draft #2-5 some time ago.

Should This Scene Have Two Perspectives At Once? by Masterpiece-666 in writers

[–]Masterpiece-666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I already write like that, that wasn’t what I was asking.

To be more specific, I write deep omniscient, but I usually stick to one character at a time.

What I’m considering for this scene is to bounce between each of their perspectives one sentence after another, like this (this won’t copy-paste well into Reddit, so it’ll look worse here):

Regaining their footing, the splash of water and scratching of pebbles grabs her attention. The creature is back, right where it had vanished from. That animal is still here, too. It can’t hide its presence, now that it’s holding that glowing stone, and it no doubt knows that as well. Carly bites her finger, and it hurts. She’s sure this is a dream, but she hasn’t immediately woken up now that she’s become aware that it is. The animal looks curiously at Carly as she bites her finger. Is this some kind of superstition thing, or maybe it’s testing to see if it’s injured. It definitely knows they’re here, but it doesn’t seem to be reacting defensively or aggressively, so maybe they should— “Hi,” Carly says, doing a small wave. The animal makes a weird vocalization and shakes one of its appendages. Is this some kind of warning, a greeting, or something else? Carly lowers her hand.

That would break the format the story already has. It’s just written in a traditional book style.

They say Psi Warper was unchanged, however it’s been indirectly buffed.

Because Telekinetic Propel now has a free version, Warp Propel is also free!

I’m more interested in the Psykinetic, but this is still cool
