BringerofShadows she/her Posted July 22, 2019 Author Posted July 22, 2019 Quote Dunno why…But when I look at the other doodles Star kinda looks like…a Mom. 1
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 22, 2019 Posted July 22, 2019 Quote Well, she does have two kids...

She had two kids with Marsh - Granite and Rose - and then she fused with Thought in an attempt to save Marsh that went horribly wrong. Thought's love for AJ overpowered her love for Marsh and got her to abandon her children and divorce her husband. It's like the most fundamental part of her backstory. Here's the page where the drama starts. I think you'll find that she was... well, quite annoying and whinny when all this began. https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/68760-the-longest-thread-misadventures/?page=411 Edited July 22, 2019 by Shard of Thought
BringerofShadows she/her Posted July 23, 2019 Author Posted July 23, 2019 Quote Well oof. And I can tell when you look through old posts, I get a ton of reps!
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Quote Yeah. I feel bad, 'cause I have over a thousand rep points and I haven't been here very long. You deserve 'em! Also... So, we have the CBST crew. Star: The anti-hero who's looking for a happy ending she doesn't think she deserves. Pheonix: The timid and emotional damsel-in-distress. Who is male. Heather: The broken mess of darkness who is trying to be sober. And succeeding! You know, for the time being... Butt: The innocent and kind of annoying side-kick who just doesn't understand quite enough to really be helpful, but he's sure a loyal one! Xino: The hero! Who was killed in act one when the Master of Silence showed up and killed everybody. And then came back less powerful. But still has an iron will! And Ember: The Destroyer. Who destroys. But has never killed anybody, what's what all about? We're certainly a non-traditional lot, aren't we? Edited July 23, 2019 by Shard of Thought 1

Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 Star let her message to Xino sit. Hopefully, she'd get an answer, but it was perfectly probable that she wouldn't. And so, she waved her hand. A 3D image of Pheonix appeared in the cell with her, smiling down at her, fiery hair burning brightly. Unfortunately, it only lasted a few, short, precious seconds. She was using a type of Narration to sustain the projection and this Realm seemed opposed to that. Honestly, she was surprised she had gotten the video of her potential past to work. Still, the projection's disappearance was... foreboding, in a way. Pheonix quite literally disappearing. Still, it had been so nice to see his face. How long had it been since she had seen him last? Maybe 60 pages? She shivered, the loneliness sinking deeper into her soul. What she wouldn't give to have him here. Holding her tightly, the way he had after she failed to complete her suicide mission. He had never been very... extroverted to say the least, but he was brave enough for her. She still didn't know, after all this time, why he chose her, of all people, to love. After all this time... She scoffed at the irony of her words. What time? The time spent being condescending toward him and not appreciating how lucky she was to have gotten a second chance? She really was a monster. She glanced over at the puddle that she had used to watch herself be caged by Jay. Her pale reflection stared back at her. Shards, what had happened to her? Her hair was a mess, her eyes were still a little teary and red at the edges, the burns on her cheeks were ugly and painful. She tore her eyes away from it. I wish, she thought, that I had never become a character in the first place. Then Marsh wouldn't be dead and no one would have gotten needlessly hurt. Then Shadow would still be a murderous drunk. Then Butt Venture wouldn't have ever gained sentience. Then Pheonix and Ember... wouldn't even exist. But it didn't matter. They were stupid thoughts. And she was a wretched fool. 2

Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 Quote So, I don't know about you guys, but I really like the movie Enchanted. I was listening to the soundtrack and I heard this song and... Its joviality is off the charts and it's really funny to think about a character like Shadow just groaning while it's being played or a character like Star being like, "What the storms?" Anyway, this is worth your time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlRGh0unE1M
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 Quote That's how Silence should torture Shadow.
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 Quote Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 On 7/17/2019 at 1:25 PM, Inklingspren said: “Okay…” She seemed to calm down a bit. As the pain faded, Ember looked at Heather and stared her in the eyes intensely. Then, she let her eyes drift, studying the girl's posture and body language. Humans were interesting and studying their many behaviors helped Ember better understand them. Though, it seemed that the more she learned, the more she found there was to know. Perhaps their nature would always elude her. But she had time. She was immortal. She looked Heather in the eyes again. "You are beautiful," she said matter-of-factly.
BringerofShadows she/her Posted July 24, 2019 Author Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) Heather returned her gaze. “Thanks.” There was little appreciation in her tone. That sparked a memory in her…Something she immediately hid away again. @xinoehp512 @Shard of Thought Edited July 24, 2019 by Bringer of Shadows
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 “It was a mere observation, but I feel that I owe you a compliment. You have been hurt - by me and by others. Humans respond well to kind words so the logical course of action was to find something good about you and comment on it. I also… enjoy your company. You are the only one who has treated me…” Ember paused for a long moment. “I’m struggling to find the right words. But you treat me… as you would anyone else. I appreciate your unbiased view, especially considering what I have done to you. It is… refreshing.”
Zephrun’s Imperium they/he Posted July 24, 2019 Posted July 24, 2019 Ember spread her lips in a sort of half smile, though it looked more like a twitch and looked a little bit creepy, as it revealed her bronze teeth.
