Hex, I am impressed on the amount of people who have gone on your written picture thread. You are quite talentled.

I have not read Amber and Clay, can you please tell me the author's name? I'll check and see if our library has it.

I know how you feel about school. I just skimmed over learning about geomatry I think it was in school because why would I need it?!???? I want to be an author when I grow up so....

But the Silk road I had fun learning about that. I really enjoy history.

We don't get cookies every time, just once in a while, and I usaully don't eat them either, only when parents give permission like yours.  

Flumen sounds like Flu men eh. means river

As we approach the elders, the oldest looking one there, a woman, smiles toothlessly at me and says, "Hello, Flumen." 

"Your new name," explains Cherith to my confution. To the four Elders that were sheltered beneath the palm tree she said, "A refuge from Flameir."
The two men spat on the sand, while the youngest of the elders shook her head sadly.
"The fifth this year," she said. "And it's not even August yet."

"'Tis a shame," said the toothless woman who had given my name. "That they keep losing their people to us." She said it cheerfully, as if it wasn't a shame on her behalf.
"The burns," said Cherith, slightly impaitant.
"Ah yes," said one of the men in a rough voice. "Come forth, Flumen."

My heart gives a little jolt of excitement at my new name, and at the thought of forever riding my skin of burns and burns tunrned to scars.

I approach the man, and he somehow pickes up a bucket full of water with his weedy arms. Without warning, he dumps the contents on my head. Warm water seeps through my clothes and down my arms and legs, leaving a tickling sensation where my burns and scars where. When I looked at my arms, they were gone! I felt light and free, and new beginings were all that was ahead of me. I was Flumen, and I was a Water dweller.

The End.

We could take a break from stories for a little bit, or you could start a new one. I have no ideas currently. Also, have you read Fablehaven seires by Brandon Mull?

Bye! 

Yes, I feel like most quotes come from boring people. It's easier to make inspirational sayings then to actually do inspirational things... My favorite inspirational quote is "shoot for the moon because even if you miss you'll land among the stars" because I once saw a spin on that where after that it said "where you will be forced to drift aimlessly farther into the vast, empth abyss of space until a lack of food, water, and oxygen causes you to succumb to death's cold embrace. Sweet dreams, kid."

Yeah, I've read Explorer's Academy. It's okay—I feel like all the books are kind of repetitive, but the puzzle aspect is cool and it's overall pretty good.

Lol, it's not that cheesy. Fighting evil is what most fantasy books are built on, in my opinion, and that's okay as long as you have a cool method/reason of fighting it—which I think you do.

It is cool that Bracken is a unicorn—especially that he's pretty different from all the steryotipical unicorns who are all like "im so pretty and pure and look at my beautiful horn." I guess there isn't anything wrong with that, but it gets kind of tiresome... I think I'd rather be a shadow charmer than fairykind BUT both are really cool.

Huh. Four chapters. Sensible, but why four? Seems kind of random. And what if they're really long? Does the prologue count? lol, idk why I'm asking so many questions. 

I don't watch many movies/musicals, my parents are really strict about screen time so that means no movies. As for musicals (wow I really want to spell it musicles, whyyyyy) the one I remember the most (that should mean I liked it the best, right?) is Annie, but I'm not really sure. I also did Aladdin for school last year, so that was fun. What about you?

And what's your irl appearance vs your cb appearance? (if you want to share, of course, fine if you're not comfortable)

ALSO I just finished Stellarlune this morning, YAY SOKEEFE FINALLYYYYYY the Great Foster Oblivion is OVER so HA IN YOUR FACE FITZ

Ah. Um. Which book is it from within HP? lol you've already stumped me (:

Here's mine: “Once again, you show all the sensitivity of a blunt axe.” — HP again, the Half Blood Prince.

Yeah happy thanksgiving! Did you do anything to celebrate? My bro is home from college (although his college is like an hour or two away by car anyway) and we're watching Star Wars (never seen it before!!) and we made some squash-apple-cranberry dish thing I think we've made every year (when I say we, I mean my mom, as she did all the work while the rest of us shamelessly played Boggle).

Ski Lodges! It's kind of like a murder mystery solo write, where people post charries (usually themselves or AEs, not usually an OC) and then the writer, usually under a different name (like SIs, they are usually supposed to be guessed), posts a story where they get killed off one by one. The ones I've read are usually in a hotel-place-thing (the origional one was in a ski lodge) with some sort of host(s), but it can really be anything or anywhere. They're really fun to write!

AE is short for Alter Ego, and they are essentially OCs you have on the CB. I think they are supposed to represent flip "sides" of your personality, kind of like splitting up your personality traits and giving them faces and names (mine were Jinx and Nyx, but they were very undeveloped and pretty similar so I kind of gave them up *winces*). However, they really don't have to—you could be more like a family or sibilings. It's really just an OC people use a lot specifically on the CB (not that you can't use it elsewhere).

If anything isn't clear for both explanations, ask more questions. I'm pretty bad at explaining things (: 

I'd rather not share my birthday, sorry.

What do you wear irl, normally (if you want to share ofc)? I pretty much always wear "boy" shorts and a random t-shirt, with a sweatshirt/jacket and sneakers. I have no sense of style—I wouldn't know fashion if it gave me a lollipop (although I'd certainly know the lollipop). Occasionally I wear sweats, but rarely. It doesn't snow or anything where I live, and I like the cold.
