  1. Refnet Zahra watched Bookwyrm walked away. "That's your friend?" Insa nodded. "How do you know you can trust him?" "I'm not entirely sure how I know. I just do." Zahra frowed. She looked up into Insa's eyes. Before she had been sent to the Clinic her mother had always told her you could learn things from peoples eyes. Her mother had made her practice reading a person's eyes. Sometimes she was right and other times people seemed so guarded she couldn't tell anything. All Zahra could see in Insa's eyes was pain. Hidden pain but it was there. "Did you get hurt?" *** Insa frowned. "I mean I got a little bruised and maybe some small cuts while the clinic was falling." How did Zahra know? She wasn't openly hurt. "We should get moving. I want to see what we have here." Zahra nodded. She looked a little confused and concerned. "I'm fine Zahra." Insa started walking and Zahra followed. "How old are you?" "9" "Do you have any magic?" "I don't know." "Why were you at the clinic?" Zahra shrugged. "My mom liked the books and gave me them and I liked them a little too much. I used to pretend that I was someone in the books and I was always imagining little conversations with the other characters. Once I got there I mostly just stayed in the library. It was nice and cozy. And the books were good." You know she might not be safe there. What do you mean? You're sister could probably find her. Emma could probably find anyone she wanted to. I don't know that there is a way to fully hide. Insa and Zahra reached Ati just in time to hear his question. "I don't know about anyone currently on this planet but if Emma or Kaos really wanted to they could probably find us." @Ati16 @The Bookwyrm
  2. Wouldn't shortcake know they're a witch?
  3. If Bookwyrm was a witch I would know by now.
  4. Earth: Greenland Insa took a quick look around the area to make sure everyone made it though. Almost everyone had left except for a little girl. She looked unsure of what to do. Insa smiled she looked about the same at a her sister had been, about 9. Insa walked over. "Hello. I'm Insa. What's your name?" " Zahra" She mumbled. "Zahra? " The girl nodded. "Well Zahra, my friend has a place where we can be safe for a little while. Will you come with me?" Zahra frowned. "I don't know. New places are scary. And I don't think I'm brave enough to do that." "That's okay. " Insa thought for a moment. "But you'll be a lot safer there than here. And I'll stay with you as much as I can. So I can help you if you get too scared. I promise." Zahra was thoughtful for a few seconds. "Okay." Then she walked through the wyrmhole. Insa smiled and followed her. Refnet Insa shielded her face and looked out over the sand. It looked endless except for the rock formation. It felt a little out of place. Insa pointed to it. "I'm pretty sure that's where we're going but we should check first." Zahra nodded. Insa motioned for Zahra to follow and walked over to Bookwyrm. "We're headed to the rock thing over there right?" @The Bookwyrm
  5. I've convinced my 8 year old sister to read Alcatraz and I am very very proud of this.

    I failed with my brother but my sister actually listens to me.

      Yes! As soon as she can read some other things without her getting scared.

    3. The Wandering Wizard

      The Wandering Wizard

      Yes! They do have to be at a certain age to not get scared :P

      I finally got my brother to read more cosmere because he ran out of books :P

    4. Immortal Platypus

      That would be important. Don't have them read Mistborn, Warbreaker, of SA unless they're mature. Probably not Elantris. The one I like to recommend to people to start with is the Rithmatist, but that can be scary too, at certain parts.

  6. NO I REFUSE TO LOSE BOTH GAMES AT ONCE
  7. Earth: Greenland Insa made a face. "I still think we should let them choose what they want to do." She looked closely at Bookwyrm expression. Saar? What do you want? Well if you're gonna be like then forget I tried to ask you anything. "But I trust you so if you think this is what we need to do then let's go with that." WAIT! Don't make important decisions without me! I used to be an important part of these processes. Well first you were too late. Second things are different and are going to be different. Get used to it. ..... I like the old way better, Too bad.
  8. If needed I can also explain things and make sure things are being done right.
  9. It feels like my body hates me for being anxious. I can't sit comfortably and no matter what I do my back is in constant pain and discomfort. And I'm so tense just in general that even if I could figure out how to fix that then it doesn't really do anything. And being tense makes me really tired. And I feel bad for getting so anxious all the time but I can't stop it. And I don't know how to make it any better. So I just have to let it run its course and hope it doesn't last for too long. Also to anyone else who's been having a rough time with anything recently I send you lots and lots of hugs.
  10. Thank you! This is amazing!!!
  11. Earth: Greenland Insa stood up. "I think the more important question is what are we going to do?"
  12. Basically pretty much wherever you go there are supposed to be four seasons. But the weather is like a toddler. And we are like the guardians of said toddler and have given up on controlling it so now we just try to guess its mood and what its going to do.
  13. No I just want doughnuts. TPBM really really likes stickers.
  14. Earth: Greenland Insa frowned. "Oh. Yeah. The other people. I was just thinking that if we can't stop Emma maybe would could try and slow her down. She's headed after bindpoints and gets stuff from them that helps her. If we were to defend one of them it would at least slow her down. And not all of them collapse. The first one didn't. It was just fine. But yeah we should probably find a place for the other patients first." Insa looked over towards the people the had saved. "...Unless the want to help us..."
  15. Earth: Greenland Insa perked up. "Does anyone know where any of the other bindpoints are? @Aes Sedai @Nameless* @The Bookwyrm
  16. Earth: Greenland Insa landed very hard on the ground. Look! You're safe and now you can remember the things! It felt like someone poured a giant bucket filled with almost everything that had ever happened to her into her head. Bits and pieces played through her mind. Her siblings, helping her mom with dinner, training with her dad, talking with Saar, doing different jobs, fear of everything, arguing with her parents, moving into the camp, arguing more, them dying, spending four months trying to help people and all of them dying, being punished, running away. Where were you? What do you mean? During the camps. I couldn't talk to you. I was busy. But you made it just fine without me. Sure you have some scars and stuff but you didn't die. But I needed your help. Other people needed your help. You left me. It wasn't like that!! Whatever just be quiet for a little while. WHAT! Why? I just need some time. There was no response. Insa sat up. She saw Bookwyrm, Nameless, Rue, and Ati but she didn't feel like talking to any of them so she just stayed where she was.
  17. The Clinic: Library Insa sighed. "Right. Okay." Saar? Mmmhm? What's the best way for me to do this? I can tell you but I need you to promise you'll let me give you back what I can of your memory as soon as you're out of the clinic. Fine whatever. Great! So you don't have enough energy to make another net so you'll just have to blast any falling thingys in your way and listen to my instructions okay? Fun. Which way first? Start the way you went before but then there are some weird turns and stuff. And there might be some giant rocks. Insa took off through the library. Occasionally there were some rocks and Saar would give some directions. Okay we're here! That's just a big pile of rocks... Oh you'll just have to blow those apart. They should be behind there. Insa shot a giant lightning bolt at the pieces of wall. They broke into small pieces and flew everywhere. A couple hit her and gave her a few cuts on her face and arms. But now she could see the people. They all looked terrified. "Y'all okay?'' A couple of them nodded. "Good. I know a way out so if you'll follow me..." They all silently stood up. "Um, okay let's go." She turned and started running back down towards the wyrmhole. Saar? Why won't they say anything? You didn't say a word for like two weeks after the camps. They're just scared. Right. When they reached the wyrmhole Insa directed the people through. She almost followed them but then decided to wait for Bookwyrm. What are you doing? Why aren't you going through? I have to make sure he's okay and he gets out.
  18. Insa rolled her eyes. "I see. Taking the easy job." She walked past him further into the library. Almost immediately she was lost in the maze of books. Scud. This is not good. She stopped walking. Okay. It's fine. I can do this and get the people. Even though the building is falling apart and we're still in it and I don't really know where I am or where they are... Oh girl please. You'll be fine. Keep walking you'll find them. Sure the building is falling but you have a way out. Just keeping going. Insa started to walk again. You seem familiar. Of course I do! I helped you with all the magic stuff on the jobs you did before. And I'm the reason you have it in the first place. Remember? Turn here. Saar? Insa turned. I'm sorry but that's all I remember at the moment. She kept walking a little further before she saw two people huddled into a corner. I could fix that. Not now. Once we're out of here okay? "Hey, um... I've got a way out of the clinic. If you follow me I'll show you." As she spoke the walls around them started to fall. "But I think we might need to leave like now." Use the sparks the keep the walls up. LIke a net. Insa shot a small net of sparks towards the wall in front of her. It hit the ground a foot in front of the wall and it expanded to cover all of that wall and continued to expand all the the walls turning corners and creating a path, blocking wrong turns and keeping falling bits of wall from falling in the path. You really do know what you're doing. Of course I do. Now follow the sparks. They'll stretch all the way back. Insa grabbed the hands of the people she found. "We have to go." She took off down the hallway, pulling them behind her. When they reached the lobby she pointed them to the portal. "Go through there. You'll be safe there." She turned to Bookwyrm. "What can I do to make this go faster? Cause if you haven't noticed this place is kind of falling apart." @The Bookwyrm
  19. Mm... maybe the not jury people should present evidence and then the jury people can make a PM or something where they can deliberate in private without outside influence.
  20. Who all is in the jury again?
  21. I'm just here because I want to be. Whether or not he is a witch is yet to be determined.
  22. Show choir season is over but since it's a class we still occasionally get to do performances. Like on Monday. And my director wants to do a show choir olympics. So that will be fun...

    But since the season is over we are now a part of the treble choir. Which I'm in normally so two treble choir classes a day. Back to back. It's a bit boring. But my director decided to make it a bit more interesting. I'm a soprano 1. But in the regular treble choir they aren't having any of them sing soprano 1 or alto 2. So all sopranos sing soprano 2 and all alto sing alto 1. But in show choir we sing all the parts and I sing soprano 1. So I get to learn both soprano 1 and soprano 2 but actually remember and sing soprano 1 at the concert. Yay.

    And I made the audition only concert choir and the varsity show choir!!!! EXPRESS!!!!! None of my treble voiced friends made it though so I'll be with all my guy friends. I get to go more insane!!!

    I wrote a thingy some people have already read it but I really like it so y'all can read it. And if you read it, no I'm not really okay but I'm working on it and starting therapy stuff so it'll be fine.

    Spoiler

    What if

    I finally found

    Peace?

    Stability?

    Safety?

    It feels silly

    But

    I can pretend

    Right?

     

    And what if

    It was 

    beautiful?

    What if

    I felt

    Beautiful?

    What if

    I had 

    Enough space

    To breathe?

    And everything I

    Ever wanted?

     

    What if

    It

    All

    Came

    Crashing

    Down

    On

    Top

    Of 

    ME?

     

    And when you

    Found me

    All that was left

    Was a girl

    Broken?

    Bruised?

    Bleeding?

    Trapped

    In what once was

    Paradise?

     

    What would you

    Do?

    What would you

    Think?

     

    And what if

    I told you

    It's already happening?

    That everyday

    I wake up

    Hopeful?

    Safe?

    Home?

     

    But over the course of

    Hours

    Minutes

    Seconds

    It

    All

    Crashes

    Down

    On 

    me?

     

    And after

    The crash

    I'm not sure

    If what I see 

    In the mirror 

    Is still me.

     

    But 

    it is.

    Just a more

    Broken

    Bruised

    Me.

     

    I'm trapped in a

    Fake paradise.

    Where

    Nothing

    Lasts.

     

    And I'm 

    Not certain

    I want to

    Leave.

     

    Because if 

    I leave

    Will there

    Be a

    Real one?

    But yeah stuff has been fun. A little stressful as normal but you know it's fine.

      That was beautiful. I'm glad you're working on stuff, we're always here if you need us.

    3. Through the Living Hope

      Through the Living Hope

      At first I thought it'd be like the poem Lost Generation.

      To those who don't know, if you read it top to bottom, it's depressing, but bottom to top, it's inspiring. Give it a read sometime!

    4. shortcake

      shortcake

      the poem is beautiful..

      we'll always we here if you ever need anyone to talk to, okay? <3

  23. "So they are scared of her." Fiadh watched the soldiers faces. "Maybe she's torturing them." Her eyes widened. "Should we be really scared?"
