Joe: Ah. So is it a "journey, not the destination" thing?
Etho: Yeah, sort of
Etho: You know, if you become attached at the hip to your soulmate from the get-go, then how do you even know what your contribution was in the end?
Etho: You gotta establish your own identity first.
Etho: Make some alliances.
Etho: Plus, you never know if your game plans will align.
Joe: I see what you mean
Joe: Speaking of game plans, care to share why you were swimming to the jungle like greased lightning?
Joe: I assume you don't want it just for the grass~
Etho: Heheh
Etho: Well -

YOU HAVE [ 3 ] NEW MESSAGES FROM: docm77
OPEN ?
================================================
Just a few more updates left in this little segment! And a clarification about reply prompts under cut:
I just wanted to properly explain something: I alternate letting reader input fully control the narrative (i.e. during votes or "What will you do?" prompts) and following those decisions up on my own. That's not to say that I want people to stop sending in replies with character actions outside of the designated times - they still let me see what the audience mood is like and get inspiration for the future - I just want everyone to know what to expect
Anyway, you guys are amazing and I'm so excited to get to the next update <3
Sometimes I wonder if writing Character & Caricature in the style I did was unhelpful. I think the language has been really polarising? I have a few people who really enjoy the prose but quite a few more who find it dense and overcomplicated. I guess for me, who reads a lot of historical letters and novels, it seems okay... but maybe I'm leaning too far into it? I don’t want my prose to be impenetrable, but I also don't want my characters to seem too contemporary. 😭
self indulgently back on my "raph late-showing autism traits and needs immense help with dealing with them because its all too sudden and new" agenda!!!!!!
I'm rewatchig atla again and, as expected, i'm full of zutara feelings. Forever hopeful that this time they will be canon. ♥
