Eh, we can't as much since I home school now, but we still text and hang out occasionally. I actually redrew a character for one of them recently for a circus group we have since I felt my art improved a lot over the year and I hated the old drawing since I had messed up the line art. It was a simple monkey character but I didn't know how to make fur properly look like fur in sketches then. They said it looked fine but as an artist you're your own worst critic.

@InstaOnly

Kinda, this is my first year and I honestly prefer knowing school friends in person. I've met some of them face to face, but that's a few days out of a school year. I go to an online home school as well, so it's just doing lessons and quizzes while trying to not get distracted wondering if an animator is streaming on youtube.

@InstaOnly

Also I've only been on notebook for maybe a few months or more at this point. Everything that's not here is on Google docs, including my script that's only the opening scenes right now.

@InstaOnly

lol My mom has to remind my sibling constantly to do their lessons least they just sit around their area and do random stuff like glue crafts and youtube.

@InstaOnly

You find that far more hilarious than my mom and I when my sibling comes to us at random times to show cat videos or something. XD Also, unrelated to our topic, I'm confused who Nykidia is offering her hand to on the RP and also she has only given Night's name so far as I know.

@InstaOnly

OH, how did I miss that. lol I should probably post on the RP. But here's a character question if you want to answer: Who, if there are any, are the creators or creator of your world? I have this system where there's three creators, but then in the last story they become blank slates for the viewer who is the "owner" of the world as they communicate directly with the irl creator through messages left behind in binary(Like on my one public page).

@Shadow_Knight group

There really is no creation or creator of the universe. There are several religions that have there own way of explaining the creation of the world but there is no one true answer.

@InstaOnly

Ah, cool. My world was made by three kitsune unwelcome among their own. So they created a safe haven for those like them, no matter their mythology, origins, or anything for that matter. Eventually Corru turns as he became outcasted and manipulated one into turning on the others. The story is known as Tale of Foxes in the kingdom but numbers that believe the tale to be true slowly dwindle down as the story was changed to serve more as a cautionary tale to be good. So when Corru figured out how souls work he brings back himself and Aaron to finish the job by making Aaron think he can change his mistake of betraying those he cared about by turning back time when really he plans on getting rid of Aaron once it's been done and ruling the world his way, thinking he knows a way to make everything perfect and keep others from being cruel like they were to him. Really this would just have the result shown in the second arc where the world cannot survive this loss and any recreation results in an incomplete world that seems empty despite having the same characters, it no longer holds the same sense of life.

@InstaOnly

I make things over complicated because I like science and time stuff. I search stuff like theories about time not actually existing and the multiverse and stuff. :')

@InstaOnly

... This is my one public page that sort of goes into the third arc with this blank world.

@Shadow_Knight group

WHAT THE FRICK! I OPEN IT TO EXPECT A ORDINARY PAGE BUT NOOOOOO! I HAD TO FIND A CONVERTER FROM BINARY TO TEXT AND READ THE CREEPY AS FRICK TEXT. THIS IS LIKE SOME DDLC STUFF! HOLY FRICK!!!!!

@InstaOnly

Oh yeah… I forgot to mention I love being cryptic about big events. The last arc is basically a never ending loop of a big event so I was like "Go big or go home.".
The last arc is where it takes a dark turn. The characters aren't all that they used to be, the world seems a bit more blank, and the hero really isn't the hero if you look at the big picture. I was thinking of the last arc as more of a game or interactive format just so the viewer can tell how much has changed from the original timeline of characters that have been through hardships and became heroes. The message 'Do they have eyes?' I put in the notes section is sort of a double meaning. Every time a character dies in the world there seems to be an error relating to the protagonist to show the characters do not have a choice here and only the viewer does, they cannot make decisions based on what they see in the world hence no eyes, and if you were to take the mask off of Player_"Name" you'd only see a black void which also ties in to the viewer having control and being the eyes while this attempt to remake a world that's been destroyed had none. It's sort of a way to turn the facts around and point at the player as the villain for once, as they are the one pushing for the story to continue and in the end it destroyed the stories and characters they once enjoyed while at the same time making it an endless loop harming them should they try to get different endings.

@InstaOnly

Also I have a lot of time on my hands when I'm not doing school…

@Shadow_Knight group

This is like if you put DDLC, Close your eyes, the Undertale universe and Bendy and the ink machine in a blender and threw in some OC's and here is this abomination that you call the '3rd Arc'.

@InstaOnly

Know about Undertale, know about BATIM and a little about DDLC. Have no idea what the others are. Honestly it's been forever since I actually watched something on those. Really this was an idea I came up with working on a tech class lesson about a week or two ago and I found it nicely wrapped up the story in a way that was perfectly satisfying and unsatisfying. Do you mean abomination as in it's a bit messy and needs some work, or that it's not what you expected?

@InstaOnly

IT'S JUST A THEORY! A GAME THEORY! Aaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnd, cut!
