there is no logic in fantasy and imagination
what part of a flying, fire-breathing gecko is logical?
or fish-people?
Oh my gosh of course it’s logical! Fantastic, of course, but I am sure Terry Pratchett has rules he holds to, though I hear he does have whimsy threaded through his work. Tolkien sure as hell did.
You make it logical. You present some odd idea such as a dragon or magic to some far off society and then ask, “how would we react in such a situation?” (albeit perhaps in a different cultural mindset) and do that with the story.
oi
don't ruin my fun with logic and brain gymnastics
Since when is the art of story threads flowing in the wind, only fate displaying their color? To others it might seem so simple; but we, the weavers, know otherwise.
i'm going to pretend like i have the braincell to deconstruct this and counter with this:
bold of you to assume i know what i'm doing when i do my storytelling
(yeah but like if you were to try and get something published would you not work hard to make everything seem coherent and like you knew all along what you were doing?)
Dom. People have their own magic systems, yes, because it makes sense. But people are allowed to have their own that are DIFFERENT than yours. Because if every magic system was the same, it would be stifling, stories would be repetitive and extremely boring. Yours is not the only way to do things

((yeah no dw i'm getting more into actual worldbuilding and notetaking and spewing shit towards Crocs while trying to convert abstract pictures and quarter-finished thoughts into actual coherent words. even still, even if it seems like i know what i'm doing i really don't because i never know what i'm doing))
I STILL OUTLINE MY STORIES. JUST NOT MY CREATIVITY WHEN SPITBALLING ABOUT DUMB SHIT LIKE MERMAIDS OR THE MAGIC ALLOWED IN MY PIRATE RPS
Dude I barely ever outline. Granted, my work probably suffers for it, but it’s very difficult and I’ve tried. And my creativity can go anywhere. I will build rules to fit what I want at times, however strange the placement might seem.
ok Roman
A flourishing bow
sigh
I mean what did you expect?
Honestly, I have no clue
And I know it won't happen but I really wanna say Ok Remus
Yeah. Remus time doesn’t come here often, mate.

Oh you misunderstand me. Of course. I am not saying the rules should be mine. Just that rules are necessary. I just go overboard (ha, sea puns) on the merfolk bit since I have seen rarely anything that makes sense beyond my own manner of creation.
a rather unconventional merman, because screw you Dom
oh, and a bonus reverse-mermaid
can't remember if this is the chat where we were talking about him before but…. new d'angelo video B)

Pictures are done, I got Wendy's, and I got a blister from walking around in my converse
Do you ever just-
Go to the lake with your family to swim
Then, when you're there, an hour away from home
you realize
you forgot your swimsuit
so anyway, I'd like to be rude to my brain
Oh, also shoutout to the couple who passed my family while my mom was trying to get us to smile for a picture
They lost it when my brother and I said in unison "I don't wanna smile"
I'm boutta kill a man
Okay, I love this guy, love his YouTube videos, but this man pronounced 'mariner' like ma-reen-er and istg-
I mean, makes more sense than the real one.
Is it just me or is it really annoying when people breath like just sweeee then they go whooooo like omg just stfu its so annoying and their nostrils going yuuuu then shwooo its just obnoxious
i hate that i understand that
I’ve never known the noise to describe that but now I do

No problem except breathing
breathing is for the weak
real chads eat oxygen cubes
Some people really just be annoying as all fuck.
