Thank you so much guys!! I celebrated practically whole week it was great

My spirits are usually rather high during this time of the year, I love the end of summer, but sometimes things do happen. Then I tend to send an SOS to the group chat and vent to my friends for half an hour haha. It's usually the case that I need to get it all out of my system first, and my friends...

The first years were going to their first potions class down at the dungeons when Peeves, inspired by a clumsy student earlier, appeared out of nowhere and made them drop their cauldrons, which went barrelling down the stairs, taking a few students with them. Madam Pomfrey was furious. (48 words)

The four sisters found the map bearing the old queen's insignia one day when they were out for one of their "adventures". In reality, their purpose was to cause mischief and they had already messed with the gears of the central clock tower earlier that day. (46 words)

This will be super weird for some but my favourite smell is the smell of sunscreen, like the generic ones. It just triggers such a happy feeling in me, of summer and vacation and the sea and sand... Comforting.

“I’ve been on this, ah, voyage for longer than you’d think. Not much entertaining on the sea you see”. She jingled the bag of gold in front of the little girl. “You want some of this, let me hear a tune from your flute”. (44 words)

“I know how to read a map, he says, I can get us out of the forest no problem, he says” she stopped to kick a pebble but missed it entirely. She humphed and sat down on a rock. Damn her brother and his stupid love for puzzles and adventures. [50]

Whether the setting is immediately introduced or gradually revealed depends on the book, if the story is more character driven then it makes sense to build them first. Though I would argue that plays depend heavily on the setting (not including avantgarde drama, duh), and where the action happens is...

Young witches and wizards raced down the moving stairs while a few lagged behind, trying to walk carefully. At the sound of music coming faintly from somewhere below, they too rushed to see what was happening.

In the dim lit room they worked on the code as the music went on and on, not even realising that the calendar was running out of pages one by one. (31 words)

An uncomfortable silence fell as they regarded the dying torch, expressions solemn. “What do you suggest we do now,” one started, gesturing wildly, “mum is going to kill us”. “Not if we die here first, so I’d rather cross that bridge when we get to it” her brother supplied helpfully. (50 words)

It's my second week here but this is what I've seen so far:



Excuse my ugly handwriting, I jotted them down while I explored the castle most of the time...

Here's my badge! https://i.postimg.cc/CxHTymWB/name-badge-2.png Space fascinates me and blue is my favourite colour, so I thought why not. I would've made a handmade one in watercolour but I don't think I'd do a better job at making stars as I forgot to bring the white acrylic :lol: . Colour-coding ...
