[OOC] The Dark Beyond: Adventures in Candyland (Prequel)

@Days
Thank you, that was my goal!

annnnnd let me explain!
I could be wrong, as I don't speak Arabic, BUT from my understanding, it can be used to strangers as well. Kind of like saying, "My friend." Like how words change in meaning over time, where it used to just be used for lovers, is now more common as a "We're chill." sorta thing.

[Days]

Ah ok, haha. Languages are wild. I have arabic friends and afaik it’s used for endearing things.

It CAN mean something like ‘my friend’, though it may be flirtatious?

I just know the flirt/love context so my eyes bulged out lmaooo. So thanks for the context!

[Lexisheeps]

Oh yeah, it CAN be used in a flirty way or as a pet name, but with some googling and just what I've seen on youtube, that's where I've come to understand the word to be used like this as well. The intent is changing or has changed over the years.

[Days]

Okay habibi ;)

[Lexisheeps]

I'm.... just gonna pop this here for shits and giggles.

My Hider

And I'm a bit disappointed that you didn't notice Ramses is getting high. Thierry's all, "Work, bitch." and Ramses is like, "Tomorrow... when my shift starts." xD

[Days]

I'm from the Netherlands, weed or getting high is a very normal occurrence T_T

[Lexisheeps]

@Days
Shit. That would explain it. xD It's not normal here, unfortunately. And I still don't fully understand why. It's illegal in Egypt, but the laws are soft and smoking is common. I only mentioned it to you, because of the wink face you posted that I posted the "work bitch" gif in response to. ONLY HALF THE CREW IS WORKING just for you x'D

Amazing post, Lexi! Excellent use of foreshadowing.

What a wonderful round! Looks like it falls back to me again. I'll try to have something up tonight!

[Lexisheeps]

Thank you! I love to write foreshadowing. ; o ;'

[Estylwen]

A bit short this time around. ^^; But our new post is up!

[Lexisheeps]

Was this family ready for the potential danger that beckoned them?

No.

Not really. oAo;;;

[Days]

Dun dun dunnn!

Ill have a kids reaction, should I also forward them all to breakfast or something?

[Lexisheeps]

I say go for it!

[Estylwen]

Yesss, that sounds good!

[Lexisheeps]

UGH why do we want to destroy this family so badly 😢 Beautiful read, Days! It really shows the impact Thierry's parenting attempts have as well as the kids being taken care of by his employer as well.

[Estylwen]

Because we like pain, Lexi. xD

Theo was brimming with energy, eager to run back up the steps into the pyramid to just discover.

Awww. :>

Edit: AHH THIS IS MY 1000TH POST!!!! AAARRGHHH!

[Days]

@Lexisheeps I KNOW RIGHT. We're masochists.
But we have the power to fix them. We will!

Thank you, I really tried to show the difference between the kids 7 years ago, and hopefully I'll be able to reflect the kids now in DB too.

@Estylwen He's so cute and innocent here still :(

[Lexisheeps]

@Days
I've already started the healing process for mine!
And it really shows that difference! I'll have to come back and use that post as reference later!

@Estylwen
Right? XD annnnd congrats 👏

[Days]
