shaved ice maybe?

[inland lotus]

Ohh
What if "[protagonist] climbs Moon because they heard rumors about the snow and wanted to see it"

Granted, it would be another story with moon being the central point of interest again, but is that a bad thing?

[jolly trail]

awww I like this...

[dry sequoia]

No, Pebbs’ collapsed can.

[inland lotus]

-# that could be a good excuse to insert a scene...

Pebbles: it's so cold...

[jolly trail]

I think everyone's seen snow by then

[south forum]

get up top and look to the desolate horizon

[thin cargo]

I mean, in the morning is very cold

Like 24°c cold

[jolly trail]

is this a joke

my house is currently 66f

if that's cold then what is warm???

[inland lotus]

66F =~20C
Which for us living adjacent to the equator it's almost at the uncomfortably cool level

[thin cargo]

[thin cargo]

I mean, we can shrug off 36 degrees

or maybe even 40 degrees

[inland lotus]

I'd not say shrug off for 40c, but it's manageable

[jolly trail]

but... but air conditioning

my air is so, so conditioned

[thin cargo]

-# to me, yes'

[inland lotus]

you'd not believe what temp I regularly set for the air conditioner

[jolly trail]

what.... what temp....

[inland lotus]

-# it's 25-26c (78F)...

[jolly trail]

wheezes

[thin cargo]

Ooh cold

[jolly trail]

I would not be able to sleep

I would just lay there and sweat and never sleep again

[jolly trail]

I DONT BELIEVE YOU

no one thinks that cold

[thin cargo]

try drink a hot coffee in a 39 degrees house because I dont feel anyhthing hot

[jolly trail]

bruh people literally start dying here at that temp

[thin cargo]

Well, I aint

[jolly trail]

you are truly powerful

[thin cargo]

But at the cost, I cannot enter a 20 degrees house 🧊 🥶

[jolly trail]

our ac went out in summer and it was like 88 in the house and I was non functional

just miserable

granted, the humidity here is absolutely awful, but...

[jolly trail]

but blankets and warm clothes

[thin cargo]

[thin cargo]

Hmmmm

perhaps

[inland lotus]

what level of humidity is considered to start being too uncomfortable?

[jolly trail]

our average in summer is like 75-80%

higher humidity is, the less efficiently the body can cool itself

so people can overheat and die

[inland lotus]

Oof, 80% seems bad

Lemme check smth

[jolly trail]

nooooooo

[thin cargo]

36 degrees

and 58% humidity??

what a steal

[jolly trail]

here's how we're doing rn

[inland lotus]

Honestly if I'm not directly under the sun it doesn't feel that hot

[jolly trail]

a little warm for november, but whatever...

it's super humid cause it's been raining

[inland lotus]

17c 🧊

96% humidity

[jolly trail]

it's wayyyy too warm for november. It should be like 40's/50's

[inland lotus]

Ah, truly rain wolr moment

[jolly trail]

especially at night

[inland lotus]

Oh right... November and it's night?
considering the circumstances it's weirdly too warm

[thin cargo]

Winter solstice

[jolly trail]

way way way too warm

it's been like this all of fall so far

I think this is the warmest november I've ever had here?

by a lot

[marsh pilot]

In the dead of Californian summer, mine is set to 80F

[kindred blade]

what's being talked about?

[jolly trail]

wat even is this

[jolly trail]

somthing that should proabbly be in misc

[kindred blade]

then get going

[jolly trail]

DRYMM NOOOO

[thin cargo]

Nice temperature of the month

[south forum]

thats what my ac is set to because its always so damn hot where i live

i get heatstroke easily- even at 80 degrees

[jolly trail]

Respect, real, cool house is the way

[south forum]

cold: more layers
hot: die

[thin cargo]

Hot: more layers
Cold: die

[south forum]

banished to #offtopic-agenderal

[thin cargo]

[quartz locust]

I prefer the cold, you can just put on more layers

[south forum]

this nerd UNDERSTANDS me

[jolly trail]

Real facts is true

[thin cargo]

Ik this is late but

Soiler for my chapter

[south forum]

family guy death pose

[thin cargo]

So, another? 👀

[south forum]

[thin cargo]

I mean, if anyone wanna? I'm still in college waiting for semester break

[thin cargo]

Chirsmis?

[midnight edge]

krimas?

[thin cargo]

Krima?

Since it's near krima...

Listens to Aurora Borealis by Lemon Demon

[thin cargo]

bumpin this one for no particular reason

[frozen sleet]

should we just do one of these with no theme?

[thin cargo]

I mean, multiple wroter project

[midnight edge]

huh

this is set to 3 day inactivity

weird

[midnight edge]

nope nope nope you aren't going back down there

[midnight edge]

god damn it this needs to be set to a week

[thin cargo]

Another collab for? 👀

[kind trellis]

Done

[midnight edge]

bump

[midnight edge]

bump, again

[south forum]

we should do another writing prompt soon fr

[midnight edge]

ture...

[elder cloak]

Ture

[south forum]

everyone do a oneshot or smth and then post it to a collection

like with woaf

[thin cargo]

I can't believe what I'm about to say...

Inv meeting our OCs for Valentine's Day

[elder cloak]

[dry sequoia]

My part would be very short, to be honest.

Or very long.

[thin cargo]

I do not vibe Valentine's Day

But for the sake of this prompt and ideas, that is all I have

[dry sequoia]

Rosa? I think it’d go on a while. Grau? Weiss? Speared to death, instantly.

[thin cargo]

[south forum]

i could def conk out another 6k banger for that

set in the hunter target universe

[dry sequoia]

Any of the Iterators? “Dude, you’re way out of your league.”

[thin cargo]

I don't think my itty would accept Inv as ship

But rather, another unfortunate accident

[south forum]

i have several plot ideas already

one of them isnt silly and is actually sadge

[dry sequoia]

Hey, remember the Greek trope of divine wingman?

[thin cargo]

Hmmmm

[dry sequoia]

Depends on who Inv gets.

[south forum]

[thin cargo]

I can't remember

Hmmmm

[dry sequoia]

The Greek gods sometimes help mortals like a wingman.

[thin cargo]

picked out five iterator cards,

[south forum]

yall pick between the scugs here or the scav

[thin cargo]

Fishy scug

[south forum]

[midnight edge]

this is pretty late but i doubt inv would go for dusk and scraps
canonically theyre both little children and despite their flirtiness, i think inv still has standards

[thin cargo]

Indeed

What about Cobble? 👀

[frozen sleet]

oh no, I like that idea

[thin cargo]

I don't have energy for Valentine's

But for the sake of another collab idea, it's the only way

[midnight edge]

cobble is literally a stone, do you think he would be affected at all

im kidding

he'd probably just tolerate it and that's it

[thin cargo]

Inv tried to flirt to a stone, failed miserably

[midnight edge]

flare on the other hand is fucking dead

[marsh pilot]

Most of my itties: BEGONE
Stratos: provides therapy

[thin cargo]

So, planning this chapter of mine, either:
Sitter
Apex
Bandit
Mysterious slugcat

[midnight edge]

i should make cobble the caretaker of both dusk and scraps

he would be like "get away from my fucking kids" if inv approached them

[thin cargo]

A silly chapter

[midnight edge]

i should make the two little guys play cars together

[thin cargo]

:saintboogie:

So when we start this silly fic

I forgor that this isn't oneshot

[dry sequoia]

Most of mine: “Uh, get out?”
Horizons: “Maybe you’ll woo me one day.”
Skies: “I can make you a mate.”

[thin cargo]

Stroy, when we start fic?

[frozen sleet]

We'll have to decide the exact details

[thin cargo]

Like:
Inv after getting rejected by downpour slugcats, they decided to march into OC territory to give themselves a shot

[kind trellis]

Hmm…
Gales. Plays along out of curiosity.
Sky. What are you trying to do?
Lives. Broadcasts the wooing to her Meeting of Six.
Whisper. Do your worst :3

[marsh pilot]

Lives lmao

[candid mountain]

caught in 4k

[thin cargo]

Who is in favour to make "Inv romantic OC hunt" happen?

[south forum]

[frozen sleet]

Let's put it to a vote, or maybe just a "I'd like to join" thing

[ocean relic]

depends on the date I suppose

[thin cargo]

That too

Never thought I'm hype for the fic and not the actual Valentine's day

[inland lotus]

A romance and OC story? probably can't participate in this one since I have no scug OC nor experience in writing romance

[thin cargo]

[ocean relic]

I'm sure Inv can love all species (not sure if that's accurate)

(and your comment just reminded me I actually have never thought of serious romance stories either... )

maybe it can be a challenge?

[thin cargo]

So, we gonna put Inv as the main protagonist

And we will put them through much rejection until either they really get what they wanted or the bad ending where they didn't

[quartz locust]

Not really a fan of the idea, sorry

[thin cargo]

Valentine ads keep coming to me and I still hate valentine's day

[quartz locust]

Valentine is not a big deal here at all

[thin cargo]

I don't want any of my chocolates to be shared

It's all mine

[quartz locust]

Greedy smh my head /silly

[thin cargo]

I bet kitkat and cadbury will be cheap when valentine's day hit

And I will begin the heist

[quartz locust]

I'm aromantic so I have no interest in romantic relationships.

[thin cargo]

I'm not ready for myself

[jolly kestrel]

there is a lot of aromatics in stories, big fan of whatever the reason is

[south forum]

well ill be happy to participate with whomever else wants to

i mostly write romance so

ill turn this silly idea into normal nonsense

[outer girder]

Know what

Why not

I'll throw someone in there

Who? I dunno

[thin cargo]

But don't know how to organize and everything

[south forum]

if we know how many people wanna participate and yall can decide on when yall wanna start stuff, i could make the collection fer you guys

[thin cargo]

👀

[quartz locust]

Hell yeah

[midnight edge]

shouldve said this earlier but fuck it
why not throw cobble and the kids in there

[south forum]

single father vs

[midnight edge]

literal grandpa and 2 irresponsible children vs creature

[south forum]

single grandfather vs

[thin cargo]

Holy crap, would Inv prevail?

[midnight edge]

fuck no

[thin cargo]

Another L struck Inv then

[midnight edge]

why and how would inv prevail against a rock

[thin cargo]

Power of flirting ig

[thin cargo]

Speaking of this, gonna collab, should we make Google sheet for the "aye"?

[frozen sleet]

Yeah probably

[blissful grove]

[thin cargo]

I'm gonna make one

Brb

[thin cargo]

Hmmm, is this right?

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1m7wBc0qGzL4IA-QPgd6EfAJoQK0-NgIKy7YKEbzcHrQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

[frozen sleet]

Well everyone who in it can work at the same time right? All they have to do is line up the start and ends?

[thin cargo]

👍

[elder cloak]

This isn’t book club

[thin cargo]

This isn't book club

clearly I must be tired

[midnight edge]

bump

[inland lotus]

Is WPW a spiritual successor to this?

[south forum]

idk

[elder cloak]

Probably

We’re planning vaguely to do another corpse at some point

I’ve not been able to drum up much interest though

[south forum]

evreryone been busy

sadge

[elder cloak]

[elder cloak]

This is a work of art

This needs to be an official emote

[kindred blade]

[thin cargo]

I'm actually waiting for another work

[jolly trail]

I want it as an emote so bad

[quartz locust]

Sadly we don't allow edits of old emotes to be submitted

[jolly trail]

Why did the transparency go away… oh well

[marsh pilot]

I should redraw it with a different RW creature

Cast your votes in misc or something

[candid mountain]

What if spearmaster cause they can't drink it

Or inv or sth, idk

[elder cloak]

I have no mouth and I must drink

[jolly trail]

Iterator is the obvious but no Iterator characters in RW emotes cry

[marsh pilot]

Testing

[sage badge]

suggest it

this needs to be an emoji here

i need this

[marsh pilot]

On it

[sage badge]

[marsh pilot]

Feel free to use it in your servers (with credit somewhere appreciated, not needed)

[elder cloak]

[midnight edge]

[blissful abyss]

Tasty

[midnight edge]

bump?

[elder cloak]

April fools corpse is not happening

[thin cargo]

[midnight edge]

bump...

i really dont think i need to bump this anymore

[marsh pilot]

Be free

[elder cloak]

Letting the corpse rest in peace

[candid mountain]

The old world and its relics should be allowed to finally rest

[midnight edge]

alright then, you may rest spooks to the moon

[dry sequoia]

I say nay!

[thin cargo]

Idk what to write

[thin cargo]

Maybe I'll bump for this

In the meantime, don't know what to write here

[elder cloak]

It’s Oopashoo

[thin cargo]

[thin cargo]

Bump

[elder cloak]

Are there any sort of holidays in this half of the year we could do a corpse about?

I think it’s been long enough since the last one

[jolly trail]

first half of the year is a little lean on holidays... we missed valentines, easter is religious, and fourth of july is MURICA

[elder cloak]

Hmm

[jolly trail]

do we need a holiday to do a collab though?

[elder cloak]

We could do a silly micro-holiday

[elder cloak]

Woag fair

[jolly trail]

holiday can be end of semester

[elder cloak]

First half of the year is un holiday’d corpse

[marsh pilot]

April Fools is over too

[elder cloak]

Second half is Halloween or Christmas

May 24th

Scavenger hunt day

[marsh pilot]

Towel Day

[elder cloak]

National hug your cat day

June 4th

[marsh pilot]

DOUGHNUT DAY

My day

[elder cloak]

Or nature photography day June 14th

[elder cloak]

Donut collab

Donut collab

I’m so down

[elder cloak]

I like this holiday

[jolly trail]

hug your cat day

[elder cloak]

The fluff will be immaculate

[jolly trail]

I can hug my cat any day

I can do it right now

[elder cloak]

Monk decides that all the other scugs and itties (who live all over the facility) need a hug. A great adventure ensues

PLUTO DEMOTED DAY

That’s so cruel

[jolly trail]

pebbles has to fight against very scug who are utterly determined to hug him

[jolly trail]

rip

[elder cloak]

Monk gets help from Saint to hug Pebbs and Arti

Or gets help from Arti to hug Pebbs and Saint

I’m liking this idea

[jolly trail]

they have to make like, a warplan

to achieve hug

[elder cloak]

:)

Arti threatens them into accepting hug

I think we’re cooking with this guys

And doughnuts are used to lure gourmand out

[thin cargo]

What we talking here?

[elder cloak]

Planning a possible spring corpse

[thin cargo]

What we got?

[elder cloak]

Tentative prompt

[thin cargo]

Would there be OCs or nah?

[elder cloak]

Same as last time I’d imagine

They might die though

[thin cargo]

Let them die /silly

[elder cloak]

Monk tries to help everyone, gets trauma instead

[thin cargo]

Wait wai-

No

[elder cloak]

Alright everyone, would we be willing to do a May corpse using the current prompt? React ✅ if you’d be down to participate

This is just to see the numbers we may be working with

[jolly trail]

unsure yet

I've been pretty bad about writing

[elder cloak]

You did feel the same about the last corpse

[jolly trail]

I'm not sure where to take this prompt either it's silly but maybe seems too simple to be multiple chapters?

[elder cloak]

I figured everyone would get their own chapter

Like, Spearmaster lives in sky islands, Arti in Metropolis, Riv in SS, etc.

Moon and Pebbs get their own chapter

[jolly trail]

🤔

[thin cargo]

So we assign dp and vanilla scug in their own chapter?

What about writers? 👀

[elder cloak]

I’m assuming we can have everyone volunteer to do the chapters they want to do

I.E. I think I’d like to do Survivor

It could be more like a fluffy anthology

[thin cargo]

Spearmaster for me

[elder cloak]

Plus we can add more and more characters depending on how many we get

Watcher, Enot, Saint, NSH, SRS, SoS’s dead body

[thin cargo]

[jolly trail]

so the prompt is just everyone trying to hug pebbles? 🤔

I'll think about it, maybe I'll have an idea haha

[thin cargo]

Spearmaster PTSD moments

[jolly trail]

actually what is arti is the mastermind and is doing this just to annoy him lol

[elder cloak]

I thought it was monk trying to hug everyone

[jolly trail]

oh I misread

hmmm

[thin cargo]

Ohhh

Nvm, let's change that to fluff

[elder cloak]

Maybe Arti gets monk to keep doing it to annoy him

I’ll post something in main stories chat to see if we’re cooking

[inland lotus]

Monk/Saint got a vision from an echo to go hug pebbles

[thin cargo]

Monk was been told by an echo to hug everyone in need

[elder cloak]

Monk tries to hug an Echo

Maybe once this gets some more momentum we can convince Banan

[thin cargo]

I still stick with SM

[elder cloak]

I’ll set up a spreadsheet once we get to 6 at least

[thin cargo]

How many we got?

[elder cloak]

Three so far

[thin cargo]

[elder cloak]

But people are sleeping

[thin cargo]

Ture

[elder cloak]

I’ll check tomorrow to see how people are feeling about it

We could get another prompt of course

[thin cargo]

👀

That "Sain't Chirsmas Speshal" didn't happened

[elder cloak]

Next year

[thin cargo]

Maybe we can do a bit like summer-ish

[elder cloak]

That’s what this is supposed to be

[thin cargo]

Iterator beach episode?

[elder cloak]

[thin cargo]

[elder cloak]

I put out the feeler in stories chat

We’ll see how people respond

[thin cargo]

I'm calling the SM chapter

[elder cloak]

[thin cargo]

Gonna have me breakfast now

:gargone:

[frozen sleet]

Make thou four

[dry sequoia]

Hello. Five.

[thin cargo]

[frozen sleet]

I unfollow and refollowed the fourm so that it's on top

[elder cloak]

We’ll probably make a new forum for this

[thin cargo]

Rename forum

[languid sand]

should i write for this?

ill consider it i guess

[frozen sleet]

It's your choice

Spooks to the moon is my one and only piece of rain world writing (that I've shared)

[thin cargo]

Depends on you, Crisoy

I am still taking the SM :gargone:

[elder cloak]

[languid sand]

[fossil grove]

I’m interested.

[thin cargo]

[elder cloak]

[thin cargo]

Chief wordin

[elder cloak]

Alright so that’s our six

Should we keep using this forum or make a new one?

Either way, tomorrow I shall make a new spreadsheet to figure whom is doing which character’s chapter

[inland lotus]

I think we can just rename this forum? Either way this forum won't serve its original purpose any longer anyway so why not reuse it

[frozen sleet]

This fourm won't be used, but it can still be clear this is the channel for spooks the moon if we use another one

[elder cloak]

Stories chat corpse discussion

We will use this chat

So what comes now is we need to brainstorm a list of characters that could be in this if we get more people to sign up

Then I’ll make a spreadsheet and we can choose characters and start writing

[frozen sleet]

So each person has a character monk has to hug

[elder cloak]

Yeah more or less

[frozen sleet]

Does that mean we could all write at the same time

[elder cloak]

Anthology style

Possibly

[thin cargo]

Anthology? 👀

[elder cloak]

Like it’s a connected batch of stories that don’t follow a linear construction

Basically a bunch of short stories instead of one long one

[frozen sleet]

Could give each writer more time to work on their part, and turn this into a 100k word fic

[thin cargo]

I see

[elder cloak]

Oh god

[twin briar]

¤Perhaps I could get in.¤

[elder cloak]

[twin briar]

¤Gonna add Rain on that.¤

[elder cloak]

[midnight edge]

i don't see any downsides to joining this

so why not

[elder cloak]

[candid mountain]

[elder cloak]

Spreadsheet coming after my final chat

[inland lotus]

Good luck on your final! 🍀

[quartz locust]

Good luck

[thin cargo]

beat the crap out of finals

[candid mountain]

Good luck

[elder cloak]

I return

The ominously steaming hole in the ground represents my success

[quartz locust]

Hell yeah 🔥

[candid mountain]

yippie

[elder cloak]

Behold chat

The spreadsheet

Pin plz :)

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1P5ULVNOsGHRx8512QOQJ0KmI9lRofvvejV0rIRSSDiI/edit?usp=drivesdk

[frozen sleet]

What is happening?

[elder cloak]

I’m trying to get the title to update but it’s not working

Oh well

That’s fine

[frozen sleet]

Yeah discord cashes the embed, it won't change for a little bit

[elder cloak]

Anyway, sign up on the sheet

[frozen sleet]

I want to do Artificer cause she's my favorite, but I also want to do Saint then have them do a whole debate of "why?"

Oh hold on there are a lot more characters than I thought

[elder cloak]

We don’t have to use all of them, I just thought a wide list might be fun

[south forum]

i call dibs on moon

[quartz locust]

Oh wait, new corpse?

[frozen sleet]

Yes, new corpse

[south forum]

no smelvin this time

[midnight edge]

damn i got beaten to surv

oh well

[elder cloak]

[elder cloak]

You can have him if you’d like

[south forum]

i can put this into my oneshot series with moonie and her sluggy friend

[elder cloak]

[quartz locust]

Oooo, can I take riv?

[frozen sleet]

What if I did Monk/j (Monk has to hug Monk)

[quartz locust]

When is it supposed to be done?

[midnight edge]

its fine, i can take hunter

[elder cloak]

[elder cloak]

We’re going to discuss the timeline once the sign up is over

[south forum]

monk is traumatized so they hug theirself to cope

[elder cloak]

It’s not anything serious

So maybe like a week or two

[elder cloak]

My character list is growing

[south forum]

would we write like we did with the smelvin quest- one person one day and someone else the next- or would we just write whenever?

[frozen sleet]

Whenever

[elder cloak]

That could work

Depends if we want to make a longform corpse or an anthology

I suppose we can vote on it

[frozen sleet]

I guess we have to decide that

[elder cloak]

We’d also need to order the chapters in a semi coherent way in that case but I like it

It would feel like an episodic story

[frozen sleet]

I would say for slugcats, campaign order, then pebbs, then Moon. And then the rest in any order

[elder cloak]

Ture

I like that

[quartz locust]

What do we do about watcher?

[elder cloak]

Tacked on at the end

Because they live real far away or something

So the order would be:
Surv, Hunter, gorum, Arti, Pebbs, Spearm, Riv, Moon, Saint, Watcher, Dubious Character zone

Does that seem good?

[frozen sleet]

Yeah

[elder cloak]

Fantastic

Now we wait for everyone to sign up and we’ll be good to set up a timeline

Also, feel free to recommend characters if you’d like to

[candid mountain]

Whomst do i pick

[dry sequoia]

Can we agree to add Inv?

[frozen sleet]

"Enot"

[dry sequoia]

Inv’s not weird this time, they’re just there and they need a hug.

[dry sequoia]

I do not see an Enot.

[candid mountain]

Uhh, did you want inv?

[dry sequoia]

Yes. I’m not going to take myself that seriously this time.

[candid mountain]

Uhh

I may have just written my name under enot

Umm

I could do sth else if you want tho

[elder cloak]

[dry sequoia]

Wait, where?

[frozen sleet]

Column M

[dry sequoia]

Is there a document I am not… oh.

[elder cloak]

On the spreadsheet

[dry sequoia]

No, it’s fine.

I’ll look for something else.

[elder cloak]

Tree likes spreadsheet

[dry sequoia]

Signing up for Pebbs!

[elder cloak]

[dry sequoia]

Probably, can someone do that for me?

[quartz locust]

Niceee

[elder cloak]

Done

[languid sand]

Okay doing sos chapter sounds tempting

[dry sequoia]

I sure hope I “get” him right.

[candid mountain]

"Monk hugs five pebbles' rotting corpse" /j /silly

[elder cloak]

It doesn’t have to be exactly what I wrote on the sheet, I was just being silly

[languid sand]

But sos would be dead

I mean i didnt play watcher yet so

I heard shes ahem

Something else

But sure okay ill do it

Need to grt back into writing anyways

[elder cloak]

[candid mountain]

[elder cloak]

Awesome

[languid sand]

[inland lotus]

Is there a randomize option? I can't really choose myself.

[quartz locust]

You can use a random wheel :p

https://wheelofnames.com/

[elder cloak]

Well of course you can’t choose yourself

[inland lotus]

or maybe i can fill in once the slot is almost full perhaps

[elder cloak]

Good idea

[inland lotus]

||what if I wanted a hug tho /j /nsrs||

[elder cloak]

Maybe you can choose yourself, just as a treat

[thin cargo]

SM chapter

[twin briar]

¤Between Rain and Nightcat here, although more aversed to Rain.¤

[frozen sleet]

Poor saint, no one wants to do them

[elder cloak]

Do you think we’ve gotten everybody who’s gonna do it?

[frozen sleet]

maybe, its likely not many more people will join without more advertising

[odd whale]

What is this?

[elder cloak]

Exquisite corpse game :)

[odd whale]

???

The brain being funky is not helping lmao

[elder cloak]

Have you read Spooks To The Moon?

[odd whale]

No

Is that required reading?

[elder cloak]

Not really, it’s just the same thing

[marsh pilot]

The meaning because I was also tripped up when I first learned

[elder cloak]

Everyone writes a chapter and the next person can see it and writes a chapter

Until we have a complete silly fic

[elder cloak]

Thanks Drymm

[odd whale]

Ohhhh

[elder cloak]

Anyway, it’s very unserious and silly

[odd whale]

Okay, what are the expectations?

How long does the chapter have to be?

Maybe this'll help my block

[bright latch]

how often are these projects done? I want to join one... later... when I am more confident in my writing capability

[elder cloak]

You write a chapter of any length

Quality and length don’t matter

And it’s like 4 days to do it

It’s very silly again

[odd whale]

Waht

[bright latch]

very silly you say...?

[elder cloak]

You kinda just sit down and pound something out

[odd whale]

I only have four days to write my chapter of I joined??

[frozen sleet]

there's only been 1, last october and this is the 2nd

[bright latch]

once in a lifetime opportunity you say...?

[odd whale]

I can't be bothers to fix my gsrammer brain whyh

[elder cloak]

Most people finished theirs within a day last time

[odd whale]

Okie

[elder cloak]

Even Banan

[odd whale]

I might join tomorrow

[frozen sleet]

i was shoocked i did as well

[odd whale]

Must leave mos

Nkw

Now

[elder cloak]

[odd whale]

Brain is weird

Goodbye

[frozen sleet]

bye bye!

[elder cloak]

We’re probably going to do another next Halloween or Christmas

[bright latch]

hmmmm I am tempted. I see two slots I think?

[elder cloak]

There’s a bunch still open

[frozen sleet]

there are a lot, just scroll right

but only one of the main slugcats is open i think

[elder cloak]

Also, is Drymm going to participate in this one?

[frozen sleet]

ok 2, saint and watcher

[elder cloak]

Amany signed up to do the rot

[bright latch]

I do not understand the spreadsheet

[elder cloak]

Read the prompt and choose a character you’d like to write about Monk comforting

[frozen sleet]

ok, here are the open slots:
saint
watcher
NSH
SRS
Scavking
somekind of liz
an echo
a void worm
monk (monk hugs themself)
and smelvin
you pick one, then write your name under it, or you can tell us and we'll do it for you if you cant

[bright latch]

It appears I am looking at

the wrong spreadsheet

[elder cloak]

[frozen sleet]

pfff

[bright latch]

If you didn't know, you can make multiple sheets in one if you don't want to have them all in separate places

[elder cloak]

Well yeah, but this is a one-spreadsheet matter

[bright latch]

ok (it took me far too long to see that button so I had to be sure)

dubious character zone

Hmmm monk comforting sounds like a scary topic (for me to write)

SoS's DEAD BODY?????

Who is smelvin????

[frozen sleet]

the char spooks to the moon is about and also Frosmoth's OC

[bright latch]

Scav king
Either you make up new depression or you gotta somehow comfort him before the ravenous beast approaches

Maybe I'll steal an empty spot later. Tis a scary writing.

[south forum]

my son

[odd whale]

Him!

[bright latch]

He's so wibbly

[south forum]

in spooks to the moon the gang went on a quest to save him

[frozen sleet]

now i thought of a funny thing were monk is conferting arti, and she goes to go kill scav king, then during the scav king chapter, arti shows up with monk, while monk is still next to scav king

[elder cloak]

The legend returns

[elder cloak]

Arti kills Scav king because she can’t lose another pup to the scavs

[quartz locust]

And then they have tea 💥

[bright latch]

wait yeah

Arti comes first before scav king

so chronilogically

[elder cloak]

We can change that

[bright latch]

scav kings biggest concern is the artificer he just comforted

Monk comforts arti by killing scav king himself

[elder cloak]

“It must be this way.”

[midnight edge]

i already know i'm gonna find a way to make my chapter extremely serious

it's gonna go from "ooh funny monk hugging survivor" to "please monk, just leave me alone, you'll die"

[worldly lion]

Are there any spots left? This sounds like a really fun project!

[candid mountain]

check the spreadsheet in pins

[worldly lion]

Oh lmao thats a good place to start

I can't wait :)

[unique badger]

Corpse?

[elder cloak]

This

[marsh pilot]

I was like "what corpse, and how is a corpse exquisite???"

[elder cloak]

Are you gonna do this one Drymm?

[marsh pilot]

Nah, not this time

Perhaps I will get an ACTS chapter out instead

[candid mountain]

Ahead of schedule /j /silly /lh

[thin cargo]

I would like my OC to die again in this fic /silly

[languid sand]

CHEERS

[twin briar]

¤ @elder cloak just to make sure does it have to be one of the characters from the game itself? ¤

¤May have to adapt to Saint if so.¤

[frozen sleet]

We have smelvin

[south forum]

the honorary mention

[elder cloak]

Okay chat, I think we’re ready to go on this now

Tomorrow afternoon I’ll create a timetable and we’ll get started on this silliness

Expect more updates soon

[thin cargo]

[languid sand]

I suppose this was delayed because of the party too ,, ?

[elder cloak]

[languid sand]

[elder cloak]

Listen, I had a long day

[languid sand]

Uh huh

[elder cloak]

Tomorrow guys

[thin cargo]

Another prophecy would be fulfilled

As the NyQuil Chicken Fic fulfilled

/silly

[bright latch]

If a timetable hasn't been made yet does that mean it's not too late to steal a spot

Decisions decisions. If so, I could potentially steal Scav King, Lizard, and Monk. Maybe an Echo, void worm, or Smelvin.

[frozen sleet]

Go ahead

[bright latch]

why would smelvin be depressed and is that really maximum level on the dubiousness

[frozen sleet]

Was stuck in Moon's house for a while

[bright latch]

[thin cargo]

SMELVIN

[twin briar]

¤The Gru scug, wants to steal the Moon.¤

[odd whale]

W ha t

[twin briar]

¤You heard me.¤

[odd whale]

Felonious is his first name??

Senior?

[odd whale]

Why??

Did I get two of those??

Am I missing context?

Norway?

Reminds me of when misc kept Norway reacting the Deathless One

[south forum]

poor baby cant find his father (gourmand) :(

[bright latch]

ooo aaa I forgot to sign up

reminder ping

[bright latch]

ohhh that's the lore? I thought he was just pathetic and wibbly

[south forum]

smelvin lore: he got lost in moon's house and everyone went to look for him

[bright latch]

moon is a property owner?

[south forum]

[bright latch]

I just... don't know enough about any of the options (and I don't like googling lore)

maybe I could help the ||oaoaoaoaoao|| echo

maybe it's too late

I'm just gonna do scav king and figure it out in two weeks or whenever that rolls around

[left wigeon]

Me when I

Me when the

Me when the LORE

[elder cloak]

the only lore for this thread is just reading the halloween corpse

[candid mountain]

shit

[jolly trail]

it's deep lore, optional

[inland lotus]

I see that 'an echo' is still open
Maybe...

[bright latch]

Do it

Do it do it do it do it

[bright latch]

If that slot isn’t filled by tonight you explode

[left wigeon]

Lemme look at these slots…

Nvm idk where to look

Idk what’s going on either

[bright latch]

pins

[left wigeon]

Oh shit

Tee hee I’m so silly

[bright latch]

I might explode Epochs anyway because I'm bored

[bright latch]

tree has it been a day yet

I don't know how long a day is in rain world so

[elder cloak]

It has

I’ve been distracted by Easter

But I’ll make the schedule later tonight

[bright latch]

you know what should be a thing

remaking bible stories within a fictional universe. rain world but it's the resurrection of christ.

[elder cloak]

Saint escaping the void

[frozen sleet]

do you need a reminder?

even if you're sure youll remember, just setting a timer alone can help you remember someting

[bright latch]

He doesn't need reminders, he needs motivation. I've hired a CIA agent with a hammer to sit next to AO3's servers. If you forget, he'll destroy it, such that SiTS—along with everything else—will be lost to the cosmos.

[candid mountain]

actually the up-to-date version of sits is on google docs-

[bright latch]

I've hired a second CIA agent.

[frozen sleet]

how many CIA agents did you hire? all the info is stored on multiple servers, each one has a copy of everything

[bright latch]

He's really fast.

[elder cloak]

[frozen sleet]

i was not aware the CIA hired hedgehogs

[south forum]

whenever yall have the schedule figured out, please keep me at the very last slot. i have no idea when i wont be without internet.

so last would help

[thin cargo]

[elder cloak]

BEHOLD CHAT

the schedule finally

we got more time per writer this time

[frozen sleet]

Oh damn im 4th

[thin cargo]

I am in the 7th

[inland lotus]

Do we still stick to the corpse format or is it more like anthology this time?

[bright latch]

I thought the order was the same as the list of characters

5th? Oh no 💥

1. Survivor
2. Hunter
3. Gourmand
4. Artificer
5. Scavenger King
6. Five Pebbles
7. Spearmaster
8. Rivulet
9. Saint
10. Enot
11. Sliver of Straw's dead body
12. T H E R O T
13. An Echo??
14. Moon

[frozen sleet]

Moon is last due to FrostMoth asking to be last

[bright latch]

Artificer -> Scavenger King hehe my chapter is gonna depend a lot of what happens before

[frozen sleet]

Your chapter is under my control

[bright latch]

You're gonna kill the scavenger king aren't you

and leave me with NOTHING

[frozen sleet]

I would never

[candid mountain]

*yu'er

[bright latch]

[frozen sleet]

I see that now

[bright latch]

them's fighting words

I'll make popcorn

[jolly kestrel]

No hugs for watcher

[bright latch]

nobody finished the game yet

maybe that's not true

I probably would have done it had I finished though

[jolly kestrel]

ive finished

thouhgt about doing them too

[bright latch]

it should've been you!!!!!!

not me!!! you!!!!!!

[jolly kestrel]

im sorryyyyy

[thin cargo]

Do it

[candid mountain]

I finished too

[thin cargo]

Wha

[bright latch]

[bright latch]

💥

[thin cargo]

(but make them quarreling couples) /j /silly

[candid mountain]

The watcher campaign

[bright latch]

[thin cargo]

I see

[thin cargo]

I love me either eternal rivals or old couple arguing

[bright latch]

I do NOT wanna write about monk repairing the ari-scavking lover's quarrel

[frozen sleet]

Too bad /j

[thin cargo]

Shame /j

[bright latch]

[bright latch]

The corpse consumes

[inland lotus]

So I guess this will still be in corpse format?

i can still write the main body in advance, can't i? /J

[frozen sleet]

I suppose that to add continuity, monk picks something up from every chapter to use in another

[elder cloak]

[bright latch]

You gotta give your next chapter something

Wait that’s me

You gotta give your next chapter something

[outer girder]

NOBODY TOLD ME

GRAAAH

is this still open?

[thin cargo]

We got others

Hol up

[thin cargo]

We got NSH, SRS and Watcher

But ask Tree

[outer girder]

hmmmmmmmmm

one of those three....

[bright latch]

Depends on if trees know mercy

But if you want… maybe choose fast @outer girder

[outer girder]

okok

the watcher...

[elder cloak]

I do know mercy

Somewhat

[jolly kestrel]

watcher has been picked, rejoice!!!

[elder cloak]

[bright latch]

Didn't mean like this second, more like within a few hours but

[thin cargo]

[midnight edge]

[elder cloak]

Oh noe indeed

[thin cargo]

[elder cloak]

Chapter is looking fire guys

[bright latch]

Perfect spelling

[elder cloak]

I know there’s spelling problems but I literally can’t fix them

[bright latch]

[midnight edge]

as i expected, i did find a way to make my chapter very serious

[elder cloak]

[thin cargo]

[midnight edge]

[thin cargo]

Spread the monksilly virus

[bright latch]

Oh no... the corpse is approaching faster than originally anticipated...

Oh you can only read the chapter before you can't you, somehow this did not occur to me

I was hoping to peek at earlier chapters to set my expectations

[elder cloak]

It’s alright, I assure you it’s quite unserious

[bright latch]

OHHH that's why you put arti and scav king next to each other

bc otherwise there'd be absolutely NO consistency

[elder cloak]

Scav king be getting cycled

[midnight edge]

just wondering if anyone's been bothered to update the spreadsheet

i've been doing it myself for a bit

[bright latch]

is there gonna be an epic cool group reading or something

Everyone takes turns reading their chapter

listens to the glorious mess unfold

[elder cloak]

Probably gonna be me reading most of them

But maybe

[elder cloak]

Cy’s going now but I have been rather lax with the spreadsheet

[bright latch]

With you reading in VC I can finally see if my tree being a man headcanon is true*

[elder cloak]

I could’ve sworn that you’ve been at a book club reading I’ve done

Perhaps Tree is having a senior moment

[frozen sleet]

[fossil grove]

Hopefully I get it done today

[bright latch]

[frozen sleet]

It's time

[candid mountain]

the ominous tree

[bright latch]

[bright latch]

not mentally prepared for the ominous tree

[frozen sleet]

Relax, I'm really busy, won't be able to get it done until at the very least tomorrow

[bright latch]

[frozen sleet]

i really should write this today, but im having so much fun in art arena

[bright latch]

[bright latch]

the corpse consumes

[frozen sleet]

1.5k words, Monk hasn't even started the therapy process

Honestly, Artificer, Five Pebbles, Saint, and maybe Moon would have a really complicated get better process.

[worldly lion]

ikr... I can't wait tow rite it lmao

[bright latch]

HOW MANY

Is this standard size

you know actually that's not too bad

I might have overreacted

[frozen sleet]

Last year I did 1.3k words for my chapter, and there was someone else who had less than a 1k, the chapter before me was much shorter than 1k

[bright latch]

I will need to write 375 words per day

[frozen sleet]

Finally, done

[frozen sleet]

Unfortunately the tree sleeps,.it may take a bit for you to get it

[bright latch]

sleeps at 6pm??

the eeper

how many wordings

[quartz locust]

Queue the boss music /lh

Have fun

[bright latch]

worst of all is I can't talk about it

Probably shoulda waited until I had written something I was happy with... oh well

[bright latch]

I feel inadequate after that last chapter uhhh this will take some thinking

[bright latch]

I'll probably make word updates anyway

72

If I continue at this rate straight it will take me about 9 hours for a near 2000 word chapter.

[bright latch]

438 words. The writing grows.

Writing has turned out to be very fun

I really want to write more but I have... RESPONSIBILITIES

So yeah... 441 words for now

[elder cloak]

[left wigeon]

Happy to hear it!!!

[south forum]

sits here with my big ass smelvin chapter (i always write way too much)

[frozen sleet]

im final count was just under 3k, how do you write so much?!

[south forum]

i shall teach you my ways

step 1: be obsessed

step 2: write

[frozen sleet]

i WAS

i am simply not obsessed enough

[south forum]

indeed

obtain more obsession

[thin cargo]

How can we acquire obsession

[south forum]

hmm

how indeed

[bright latch]

hmm i hope only my writing doesn’t disgusts me

the moment I wake up

[bright latch]

Not that even I knew, but this writing corpse has caught me on probably the worst week physically possible, so I might eat the two day lead send us back onto the regular track

[elder cloak]

That’s okay

Worst comes to worst, we can hand off the incomplete chapter and you can finish it up later

[outer girder]

Corpse 🧟

[candid mountain]

Corpse

[bright latch]

💥

[left wigeon]

Why are we talking about corpses??,

In CORPSE discussion????

[worldly lion]

Corpse

[unique badger]

Corspe

[thin cargo]

Carcass

[unique badger]

cadaver

[bright latch]

skeleton

[dry sequoia]

Skull emoji.

[bright latch]

Just realized I misinterpreted part of the chapter before me and now feel like I must scrap most of what I've written (there's not enough time, I have to live with the consequences)

[dry sequoia]

Who reacted the Vietnam flag?

[bright latch]

[dry sequoia]

Look at the reactions on the forum.

Somebody reacted with Vietnam's flag.

[bright latch]

Ok I have new inspiration I'm gonna try to redo some of the earlier part to fix my grave error and see if the words carry me. If not, I will return, defeated

[bright latch]

time for corpse corpse corpse
