Eddie nodded to her. This is a whole [scudding] lot of people… “Stop that,” Eddie said, gesturing at him with her gun.
-
The vines land on the deer and hold on super tight… It begins walking away, then nibbling at another tree.

“Cold?” Eddie shrugged. “I don’t know. But this fellow here,” she gestured at Roy, “has some kinda prophecy thing going on.” @RoyalBeeMage @Anguished_One @Doomslug Doomslug Doomslug

Nahhh it was amazing BECAUSE of the pineapple
-
Eddie blinked. Then blinked again. “[redacted because I don’t say naughty words]. I really wish I remembered that.”
-
Eddie shook her head. “Not really. I know…I know a lot happened, but I don’t really know specifics except that I’m so angry…” She blinked. “Oh. And I have my fire now. Did I have it when we knew each other before?”

Guys I’m terribly sorry to necro this, but I have to look look at this it’s beautiful
-
Eddie flinched. Should’ve knocked on wood… “Ah. About that. Do I…know you?”
-
Eddie nodded to him. It’s a full party, now…I hope I’m not supposed to know who any of these people are.
-
It swung open easily. Inside was a large jar filled with a deep red liquid, and something metallic.
-
Eddie waved at him.
-
The box is gleaming metal. But unlike the last one, this one has hinges on the back, and a lid that looks as if it’ll just…open.

To the theatre, regarding terror:
You terrify me.
I don’t think I’ve ever told you that, have I?
I’m not just scared of you.
I’m terrified.
It’s not stagefright, not at all. I’m scared to have you, and I’m scared to leave you.
I was scared not to know you.
But the more I learn, the more frightening you become.
You terrify me.
Because all that you are—all that we are—is for them.
For the audience.
They see us.
They see us.
And what a terrifying thing it is,
To be seen.
To be seen ugly.
To be seen broken.
To be seen laughing.
To be seen crying.
To be seen shouting.
To be seen.
They don’t come to you to find something pretty, something nice, something soft.
So we can be none of those things.
We must crack our hearts like geodes, allowing the light within to shine out and caress their souls.
There is nothing more intimate than a story.
And there is no way of telling a story more intimate than with singing.
So you ask us to sing our stories
You ask us to feel so strongly that we cannot help but sing.
And while we do it, they watch.
They see our stories and hear our voices.
That’s terrifying, you know.
To let the world hear our ugliest heartbreaks, see our deepest scars, and know our hidden sorrows.
That’s what you’re asking us to do.
To let them inside.
That’s what you’re about.
Letting people inside.
There is nothing like you in this entire world.
You terrify me.

The tracks continue for a long while, eventually coming to an end in a grove of trees where a creature that looks like a deer, if smaller, is nibbling at the bark of a tree.

I will!! If you want more, this is the link to almost everything I have written with her so far in chronological order. A lot of it will get cut, and it’s all super messy lol but it’s getting there!

Thank you guys! I’ve never really developed a magic system since I usually just write short stories but I’m liking how it’s turning out, and I’m excited to keep figuring out her story.
-
Eddie groans. “Nevermind.” She begins fiddling with a tiny flame, letting it bounce between her fingers.
-
She notices a bush laden with berries, as well as a set of footprints in the snow. They look as if they came from…something with hooves.
-
None of them seem to notice her.
-
There are some pine trees, a few boulders, and a whole lot of snow. And several shapes circling high in the sky.
