They say it's about the journey, not the destination. This is true of many things. Pizza delivery is not one of them.

TFW you know what you want to happen but the words aren't cooperating. Why is plot suddenly so much harder to write?

Bio

I am an adult, though I don't usually act like it. I'm a voracious reader, and not overly picky about books. I am artistic in a variety of areas, including music, drawing, writing, and sculpting. I have a minor obsession with dragons, and love the color violet. Fantasy is my preferred genre, be it past, future, urban...as long as it has a fantasy flavor to it. I also like scifi, mystery, and some horror. I am crazy, and I like tormenting my characters. But I don't bite...much. ^.~

@Cruallassar@Terminal SURE why not. Cru may have one of my three lives. <3 That puts me downs to two (one to give away, assuming I can do that with a life I was given by someone else). Good luck!
@PlatinumSkink I'd go with "that", not "this" -- "this", to me, implies it's something present or fairly immediate, and it feels more like a tense/perspective error than anything else, but it doesn't seem particularly egregious. I would accept "this" here, as a stylistic choice. I don't remember the specifics of when you use which, but it does make sense. "This"/"that" is specific, and emphasizes something more than just an "it". "It" is just a fairly generic sort of word, and if you want to highlight the death, I wouldn't use "it". In terms of replacement, you should be replacing "that"s, not "this"es, @Terminal.

I am going to surprise you, but I'm not telling you how this will happen.
Put that in past tense:
I was going to surprise you, but I didn't tell you how this would happen.

...Actually, maybe it should be a matter of correcting "was going" to "would"? Honestly English is rather flexible, and there's always half a dozen ways to say anything and any one of them might not feel quite right to someone but fine to others.

@Cruallassar How many do you have right now?
Though he's not been online in two weeks, so iunno.
@Mogtaki will do~ maybe tonight, maybe ni the morning. <3
@ayzrules I remember they've been referred to as twins a few times, thogh I can't recall where else, or by whom. It's not an unreasonable assumption, given how they behave. The twin stereotype has a closer bond than most siblings. ^.^ No worries~
@Mogtaki can I just get a rough idea of how Kensen reacts to being thanked? Does he introduce himself back before leaving?
Huzzah a post!

As a note, it's fine if people think they're twins, but Izkry is actually younger than Belasy by a couple years.
@Stern Algorithm Ah, understandable. I'll do my best to keep you up to date, then.

Right now, the idea is to get things moving. ^.^
@Terminal Not you. Persuasion from people who want lives. You don't need any more. *swats* =P
