Haha! Aw that's so sweet :) Well thank you, and same goes for you! Happy (late) birthday to Anners then! Trust me I really didn't know what I was talking about, I only know some people use WordPress for blogs. I can't help with choosing between which website, but I heard Weebly was easier to use, while WordPress is a popular "content management system". WordPress was founded as a blogging platform, but for some reason it looks too business-like to me (personal opinion, of course). If you want to build a very intricate and complicated website, go for WordPress, but I heard it's harder to navigate, although there are more tools, whereas you can make a website using Weebly in several minutes, since it's Drag and Drop. There's no right or wrong with choosing :)

I actually decided on Tumblr xP

A Little Less Conversation
So here's a conversation between a friend and me today.
Friend: *tugs hair while I was reading*
Me: What?!
Friend: How was your day?
My mind: Crap!
Me: Pretty bad.
Friend: Pardon?
Me: Bad-ish.
Friend: Name one thing that made you smile today.
Me: Uhhhhhh..... Fake smile or real smile?
Friend: Real smile. Fake smiles don't qualify as smiles (she actually told something else which basically meant the same thing, but since I don't remember, I added my own touch)
Me: Uhhhhhh....
Friend: I'm waiting....
Me: I'm thinking.... Ummmm
Friend: Really? It takes this long? You look amused right now.
Me: Okay, this made me smile.
Friend: How convenient! Now name ten things that made you sad.
Me: Uh, so this morning *starts off*
Friend: No, wait! I want you to think about it!
Me: No, it's right on the tip of my tongue.
So um, I don't know why I'm writing this, but I just felt like.
Oh, and fifty points to Ravenclaw if you figure out what the title is. Fifty points from Gryffindor, Slytherin and Hufflepuff if you get it wrong xD

I'm sorry for the millionth time! Lately I've been forgetting a lot of things I should be remembering.

Weeeellll I may be biased here because one of those is legit my nickname... XD
Naw, I admire you taking the effort to put thought into the name. To be honest I use a random name generator whenever I need a name for something..... I'm just too lazy for that. Anyway, they all look like good names to me.

I'm sorry :( I didn't mean to make you more anxious at all! Don't worry about explaning it; I see my faults now, but all I could think about then was how much I care about you and don't want you to go. No you did not ruin it!!! It would have been more boring without you anyway (even though Maya and Jingle have awesome characters of course).

same here!! for some reason I'm kind of obsessed with names

Logically, yes, you're right! That was exactly what I was thinking, but I do want to make the whole story different and a character with an unusual name might help. Orion doesn't sound right, so I'll most likely skip that one, and I don't feel right if she's named Vela or Virgo. Thanks for the advice!

That was legit what I thought when I wrote that down. My brain was telling, "Hopefully, Lynx is fine with this."
Haha I can't write a character if I don't like their name. My roleplay characters have the names I love, and if I don't, I'll kill them off some time. I need to think day and night for it xD

I'm sorry :( I didn't me..."
It's not your fault! The reaction from you all is completely different from the reaction from people in real life, so I get some mixed emotions that crash together.... Ugh I'm so horrible at this! *shrugs*

Bell is not as um, developed as Raven or Easton! And I honestly don't know what crap I'm blabbering right now.

Dude, totally fine. It brought a grin to my face. I was quite flattered. Haha. And it's only my nickname anyway. :) It's a pun for me. I'm rather cat-like plus I make chain maille (as in the medieval armor) and we use metal links for that. Plus Lynx's have been known as keepers of secrets. That all rolled up into one playful nickname for me. :) Though to be honest most people who call me by it in person have modified it to Lynxy....
I used to be that way with characters. I used to spend hours and hours finding one to fit. Once upon a time I used to be head mod for the most active hunger games rp on GR (we even got featured, but this was like 4-6 years ago) so I had characters dying right and left. I burned through soooooo many names. After awhile I decided my time wasn't worth the effort and I would create a base for the character, use a random name generator (I'll usually give it a few clicks with 5 or so middle names included), and pick the names I liked best. Even gives me last names. Then I go through a discovery process with the character.
Then again I also don't write books or short stories. Just rp

I always thought it was cute :D And I love constellations, so any name of constellations automatically gets my attention.
I wonder if I'll change out of it xP Random name generators don't help a lot for me.

Speaking of names (for RP and stories I write), I usually pick my favorite ones and go from there. Sometimes the names appear in my dreams and I use them for my stories.

Um what XD

XD Kavy the character. XD
imagine reading a book with your name in it, and then you're like, oh look there's me XD

Well you have made a character named Kavy before in LSOPA and Descendants. I haven't made one named Alia in any group XD
But oh yeah I literally read a book with a character named Alia on purpose XD I didn't like her a ton either XD

XD Kavy the character. XD
imagine ..."
oh yeah, I always make my first rp character in a group based off of the me irl


My first roleplay character ever was meant to be a younger version of myself, but she ended up wiser because I was writing out her words XD I didn't use her much tho, I either did normal friendship roleplays with her, and the one time I plotted for her, I did so evilly.
And that name that seems to be spread far and wide in this journal, Corvus… is the name of my second, kinda-villain-but-sorta-not, most frequently used roleplay character. I've made him into a laughingstock purposefully XD


And I haven't, but I've come close. I know I felt awful when I had Corvus call the student he'd been tutroing a disgrace and also when he literally abandoned his surrogate daughter upon her getting upset. It was soo sad :( I think I avoided crying because on one of those days, I was hyped for camp, and on the other, my dad had something good happen to him. So I focused on those.


Wow, you're writing a book? Awesome and congrats! When did you start writing books? Oh yeah that is sad, but I'm used to parents being gone a lot :( I suppose it would be different when you write it as opposed to reading it. Yes, I so have that evil part. I seriously wanted to kill off my roleplay character, but someone else told me I'd better not because their character would be too broken, which would steer the plot the wrong way. Funny that I ended up breaking that same character anyway XD
Makes sense. Oh yeah, I understand plot excitement and its line with realistic sadness. Our group had a crazy evil character attack a school, and I was soo excited at first but I ended up feeling horrible because the character based off of me got seriously harmed. It's one thing to have your top Death Eater have bad stuff happen to them and quite another to have the same occur with what's basically a more innocent version of yourself.
Anyway sorry, mini-rant XD
I know that feeling about writing too...

Wow, you're writing a book? Awesome and congrats! When did you start writing books? Oh yeah that is sad, but I'm used to parents being gone a lot..."
XD that is true
yeah, but I'm like way behind on both of my books I'm currently writing, because I'd been distracted, and I have writer's block rn, the problem is that the hardest part in writing is to keep writing, like the first chapter is easy but then it gets harder and harder as you keep going
XD I almost wanted to kill off the main character's love interest (they are not together yet) because I'm evil but I decided not to because of the plot, and I've fallen in love with the love interest
I have three dead characters in my story (so far). They're only mentioned. Not because of the plots, but because my dreams tells me what to write.
