Also, we should do storytime with Papa Red-Bear soon.


Good place for it, now that there isn't a bunch of assholes tossing shit at us from the other side of a wall.

Also, it's interesting how opposite Sagax and Solveig are. Could play off of that, Jorwen seeing two ends of the spectrum in them both.

@Leidenschaft Man, if I could like this post a dozen times, it still wouldn't convey exactly how much I loved it. Everything about it just hit me in all the right places, and you write such a natural feeling family it's impossible not to feel anguished at their plight, and forcing Solveig to make those choices just kills because they're such impossible choices to make if you want to be moral and just without giving up on your family and sacrificing yourself (I actually totally want her and Marassa to meet one day, there's so much that's similar but different between them). Jorwen's inner conflict just seeps of the Nord culture, and every time we get scenes like this that show how much war has cost him and having lost all his friends, you get a sense that he wonders if it's all worth it, but it's the only life he's known.

Fuck dude, standing ovation. I'm impressed beyond words. I loved this

Wow.

I actually loved reading that, and not just because I'm a vane prick, but there's always times I feel like a hack. It makes it better that I wrote half of that post drunk. Seriously, though, thanks. For real, man.

AAAAALSSSOOOOOOOOO, I'm really happy that your surgery went well, dude. Thor truly was listening to my prayers, and when I sacrificed that goat and poured a libation of its blood onto my front lawn. So worth the weird looks from my neighbors.

I know you often give me credit for inspiring you to git gud at writing all the way back when you joined a little shindig called Voice of the Sky, but I honestly think you've surpassed me in a lot of ways for writing characterization and articulating it all. Also, don't be a show off; I wish I could drink, so hard. It was my pleasure, tho. I know I love getting feedback, but this is one of those times I really felt I'd be slighting you by not speaking my mind lol.

Yeah, I guess it did, but if you could pray to the god of morphine and good drugs and tell the god of disgusting body functions to eat a dick for me, that would be appreciated. I've been suffering super bad the last few days and my dignity's been super shredded lately.

A man needn't be shamed by the things he can't control. It might not mean much, but you'll be at a hundred percent soon enough, man. And I just thought some of what I wrote was drunk drivel at times. There are still a few typos, but, eh. Still though, dude, you're the catalyst for me to git gud. Writing's my passion, so it's always cool to see a dude I looked up to in writing giving me compliments.

Also, I'll be hanging around the pads, @Frizan and @MacabreFox.

@Leidenschaft and @Dervish and...fuck, everyone here.

I really hope to get on your guys' levels of writing; such good flow and dynamics at play. Signing up for this RP may have been one of the best decisions I've made. I'm glad I broke out of my comfort zone and dove headfirst into advanced.

Aye, I'd have to agree with Frizan here, you guys have been a great inspiration and have helped me be a better RP'er. So, liek Frizan said, signing up for this RP has been one of the best decisions I've made.

I may join you guys, just to chat. What be the Tampax you are commandeering?

It's not so much my situation as just how filthy and embarassing this thing is. I've had enough leaky, disgustin bags and tubs hanging from my gut to last several life times. I no longer have a compass for normal. >.>

I think the worry about being a cruddy writer is pretty much the norm for everyone! I kbow I look at my posts and think, "holy ballsack, that's so thin I couldn't butter my toast with it", and "Yup, my character spilling his guts like this is about as believable as Kim Kardashian's dignity and has about as much emotional weight with the delivery as a fucking robot pretending to be Mr. Spock.", like all the damn time. I end up being surprised people like me writing like 80% of the time. It's very rare I make a post and feel satisfied.

Honestly, and cross my heart not just saying this because we're all being soft serve right now, but it surprises the hell out of me that you aren't an old hat at Advanced. I swear I thought I saw you here years ago, and your writing is fantastic! Seriously, you don't have to aspire to match anyone; you have a damn good voice.

As I said numerous times, in the last two months, you have improved so damn much I find it pretty inspiring. You took criticism super well and listened to people's suggestions and are really a strong writer for a guy who doesn't speak English as a primary language! Your OOC posts have a lot of errors still, but you proof read the shit out of your IC and it really shows. You're fantastic, man.

U write shit n00b, get good plz.

Nah, just kidding. You and @Mortarion been pumping out a lot of quality content. I'm honored to host a creative outlet for you guys.

I am not sure if the distances between the holds have been of importance, and if so, that has been discussed. The OP provided some useful information, and I (DizzieDee) briefly commented to compare sources. I also did not factor in the curvature of Nirn, along with the hills, which would increase the actual distance, so that figure provides the least possible distance. And to correct that, I did not use the Pythagorean Theorem. It was a trig identity, although the calculation is the same using the former method.

1752 = a2 + a2 --> 175 = 21/2a --> a ~ 124


Assuming Skyrim is 1 million km2, and scaling that to the game map, I found the roads between Windhelm and Dawnstar is approximately 300 km long. Between the five days from Sun's Height 6th to 11th, our group would be covering 60 km per day. Between Nightgate Inn and Dawnstar, we're going alongside Khajiit caravans, who can help us carry stuff on their wagons.

60 km/day is not entirely implausible.

I'll have time tomorrow to write if you guys have already started. What pad have we claimed?

And @Leidenschaft, seriously, that was probably the most intense thing I've ever read. Broke my heart in so many ways, especially when it came to Solveig.

@Dervish Glad you like the feels (:

Go right ahead.

Wait, wait, wait. I don't want to be a party pooper and I might be a little tipsy again(I might have a problem) but you'll have to whip up a reason why the Jarl spares time for you and not his Thane or someone else in the Jarl's stead.

This one's supposed to be real personal and I don't think Jorwen is the type to spill his guts when strangers are present.

But next time. Or even after the hot and heavy confessions.
