Si Vis Votum - Discussion

>Well, you guys better remember: lightning never strikes twice.

Lightning follows through the same ionisation path many times per second and notable spots are struck repeatedly with pretty much every storm in the area :V

Shut up, Addy. >.>

Just kidding :V

It's a metaphor. You don't need to deconstruct it.

Oh come on. It's a joke.

Guys, what do you do when you've got writer's block? I'd really rather not be That Guy Who Lurks In The Background. You know the one.

I suggest freeing up your creativity by writing for other things. Exploring unfamiliar territory. Try signing up for a new, more comfortable RP, and play with that until you can get back in the game.

BTW, anyone know where Grey Star went?

Oh, uh... Hi. Anything you need?

"Guys, what do you do when you've got writer's block? I'd really rather not be That Guy Who Lurks In The Background. You know the one. "

Yes, the place is occupied by me. Get out.

@Lizard: I think she's still banned along with Raineh Daze and Moerin.

EDIT: OH WAIT, nevermind! Actually I remember that it was ANNOR that's been banned with Raineh and Moe.

Pf, haven't been banned yet. Not even once. XD

@Lizard:

Hm... thank you. Do you think that'd still work if I just wrote something rather than actively RPing?

@Adannor:

NO U

Alternatively:

Get out.

Grey: I was just wondering what would happen to the Gerudo Mask if the person who gave it to him failed to exist. But it's all good now.

Flanker: Sure it would! Just go delving into other things for a bit until the thing you're stuck on seems fresh and new.

Ah, alright. XD

No, Flanker, it is I who invoked the SA getoutfrog!

It was already there.

*gets out the stick*

Calm down.

OH. MY. GOOOOOOOOOD!

Alternatively (again):

"You are already getting out."

"Wha -"

-is immediately ejected from the universe-

Flanker — I find it helpful to walk in circles in my room. Alternatively, take a walk and think about the characters. Alternatively, a good cup of Earl Grey and some Bach at the background. Alternatively, talk about the characters with someone who knows the setting.

@des:

Ah, you're someone else that paces too, then?

As for the second suggestion, I don't really drink tea or coffee (but then again, I've never properly tried it), but there's nothing wrong with some good old fashioned classical music.

And yeah, I guess I could -

...Oh, wait. Aside from KotOR, nobody really seems interested in the series I am.

Still, I'll try anyway!

I wonder if it would be especially effective if I listened to Bach while writing a short piece, taking occasional breaks to pace around my room?

Suggestion: you could have Zero go after Toph. And then he finds out who the Blue Spirit is.

Well, actually, anyone can do that. It's up to you guys.

And I keep imagining Aang and Batman playing chess for some reason.

...I'll get on that soon - I'm not really doing anything aside from posting in other RPs, looking at a Suidoken IV LP and reading up on engineering and nuclear warfare.

You can try BWV 1052 if you're in a jumpy mood, or BWV 1056's largo if you want something calmer.

Thanks for the suggestions. Working on that post ASAP.

Not sure what to have Kreia do except stand around looking old or whatever she does in her spare time.

Terribly sorry that I vanished from the internet completely for these last four days. To make a long story short, it involves preparation for a Baptism that will be held next Friday, and relatives coming in all the way from New Zealand. Hopefully it won't take me too long to get caught back up...

Have to go to sleep soon. Have to wake up UNGODLY early tomorrow morning.
