Why didn't he see it coming? Why didn't he do enough? Jax could have done more.

…

"And they call you a God?” Kaufmo placed his foot on top of Pomni’s back, pressing down. He held the gnosis to the sun, letting the sun shine off it.

“Get the fuck away from her!” Jax screamed at him. Kaufmo's hundreds of eyes snapped to him; seeing the rabbit trying reach for his sword. The grueling pain he felt, trying to move his body, even an inch; the strain on his muscles as he ulled his entire body across the ground.

The harbinger strolled over to him. Bubble shot in front of up Kaufmo, gathering their strength to protect Jax, but only got popped with a flick of his finger.

“They call you the mighty traveler?” Kaufmo sheathed the sword of his back; holding it over the rabbit's hand, and then plummeting to an inch of his hand. The Harbinger hit hard on the sword's bottom, sending plummeting further. Jax cried out in pain; blood pooling out of his hand, painting the cobblestone streets in crimson.

"Jax!”

“What a joke,” Kaufmo chuckled, “You both deserve each other.”

my ideas of pokemon teams for the circus crew!

Also, some of these pieces are my actual first serious digital pieces (yeah- I made that pomni one even before artfight in July- it's been rotting in my files for a while)

Anyway, this was super fun, and I also made a team for Caine, and I'll probably render it or something!

Now, more details

I established some rules for myself as I made the teams for each character, and each of them had to have-

- one eeveelution: the idea is, since TADC is based on studying characters and their growth, the best pokemon to show the growth of people evolving in different directions is, of course, eevee!

- a pokemon to represent their appearance: since appearances and avatars are a BIG focus for some characters (Pomni learning about her new form, Zooble struggling with their body, Gangle’s whole deal with her mask, etc etc) it made sense to me that have one pokemon that reflects that in their teams

- one to two pokemon linked to SOMETHING that’s related to the character: for example, the fact that Jax always has keys, or Ragatha’s thing with knives, or Kinger and bugs. This can also come from things we know about the characters, that comes from outside the show: Ragatha liking horses, Gangle being a nerd (hence why she gets not only Mimikyu but also two pikachu clones, that also reflect her deal with her masks).

- a pokemon reflecting their main personality trait: yeah, I know, it’s always frustrating when characters get dumbed down to one trait by the fandom. But TADC offers us characters that are very diverse in their ways of presenting themselves, with unique personalities, that also fit in typical roles we’ve all seen before (the mom friend, the charismatic bully, the grouchy one, etc etc). I feel like this over characterization is meant to OVERLIGHT the fact that theyre MORE than just that main trait. And to give it some attention, I tried giving characters mons that reflected their "typical" character trait: a mischievious Gengar for Jax, a duo of shifting plusle and Minun for Gangle, a confused Spinda for Pomni…

- (mendatory): something relevant to plot points in the episodes. That’s how Pomni gets her little Sandile from Caine (after Gummigoo explodes-), or how Zooble gets their giant scolipede (inspired by the gloinks and the gloink queen).

And last rules:

- I’m allowed to twist the Pokémon’s designs a little bit

- each character’s fit should reflect a little bit of their main pokemon

- no one gets a legendary, mythical, ultra beast and what not: they’re normal ass humans, they get normal ass pokemon. For example: Caine, on the other, has a total of 0 completely “normal” pokemon! Since he is NOT a random joe!

- have fun!

So yeah! That’s all the rules that led me to my choices! If you wanna take inspiration from those, go ahead, but yeah! I hope that was fun to read all that, you little freak

How to Write Strong Dialogue

(from a writer of ten years)

So you’re back in the writing trenches. You’re staring at your computer, or your phone, or your tablet, or your journal, and trying not to lose your mind. Because what comes after the first quotation mark? Nothing feels good.

Don’t worry, friend. I’m your friendly tumblr writing guide and I’m here to help you climb out of the pit of writing despair.

I’ve created a character specifically for this exercise. His name is Amos Alejandro III, but for now we’ll just call him Amos. He’s a thirty-something construction worker with a cat who hates him, and he’s just found out he has to go on a quest across the world to save his mother’s diner.

1.) Consider the Attitude and Characteristics of Your Character

One of the biggest struggles writers face when writing dialogue is keeping characters’ dialogue “in-character”.

You’re probably thinking, “but Sparrow, I’m the creator! None of the dialogue I write can be out of character because they’re my original characters!”

WRONG. (I’m hitting the very loud ‘incorrect’ buzzer in your head right now).

Yes, you created your characters. But you created them with specific characteristics and attitudes. For example, Amos lives alone, doesn’t enjoy talking too much, and isn’t a very scholarly person. So he’s probably not going to say something like “I suggest that we pursue the path of least resistance for this upcoming quest.” He’d most likely say, “I mean, I think the easiest route is pretty self-explanatory.”

Another example is a six-year-old girl saying, “Hi, Mr. Ice Cream Man, do you have chocolate sundaes?” instead of “Hewwo, Ice Cweam Man— Chocowate Sundaes?”

Please don’t put ‘w’s in the middle of your dialogue unless you have a very good and very specific reason. I will cry.

Yes, the girl is young, but she’s not going to talk like that. Most children know how to ask questions correctly, and the ‘w’ sound, while sometimes found in a young child’s speech, does not need to be written out. Children are human.

So, consider the attitude, characteristics, and age of your character when writing dialogue!

2.) Break Up Dialogue Length

If I’m reading a novel and I see an entire page of dialogue without any breaks, I’m sobbing. You’re not a 17th century author with endless punctuation. You’re in the 21st century and people don’t read in the same way they used to.

Break up your dialogue. Use long sentences. Use one word. Use commas, use paragraph breaks. Show a character throwing a chair out a window in between sentences.

For example:

“So, you’re telling me the only way to save my Ma’s diner is to travel across five different continents, find the only remaining secret receipt card, and bring it back before she goes out of business? She didn’t have any other copies? Do I have to leave my cat behind?”

vs.

Amos ran a hand over his face. “So, you’re telling me the only way to save my Ma’s diner is to travel across five different continents, find the only remaining secret recipe card, and bring it back before she goes out of business?”

He couldn’t believe his luck. That was sarcastic, of course. This was ironically horrible.

“She didn’t have any other copies?” He leaned forward over the table and frowned. “Do I have to leave my cat behind?”

The second version is easier to digest, and I got to add some fun description of thought and action into the scene! Readers get a taste of Amos’ character in the second scene, whereas in the first scene they only got what felt like a million words of dialogue.

3.) Don’t Overuse Dialogue Tags.

DON’T OVERUSE DIALOGUE TAGS. DON’T. DON’T DON’T DON’T.

If you don’t know what a dialogue tag is, it’s a word after a sentence of dialogue that attributes that dialogue to a specific character.

For example:

“Orange juice and chicken ramen are good,” he said.

‘Said’ functions as the dialogue tag in this sentence.

Dialogue tags are good. You don’t want to completely avoid them. (I used to pride myself on how I could write stories without any dialogue tags. Don’t do that.) Readers need to know who’s speaking. But overusing them, or overusing weird or unique tags, should be avoided.

Examples:

“I’m gonna have to close my diner,” Amos’ mother said.

“Why?” Amos growled. “It’s been in the family forever.”

“I’ve lost the secret recipe card, and I can’t keep the diner open without it!” she cried.

“The Bacon Burger Extreme recipe card?” Amos questioned.

“Yes!” Amos’ mother screamed.

“Well, that’s not good,” Amos complained.

vs.

“I’m gonna have to close my diner,” Amos’ mother said, taking her son’s hand and leading him over to one of the old, grease-stained tabletops with the ripped-fabric booths.

Amos simply stared at her as they moved. “Why? It’s been in the family forever.”

“I’ve—” she looked away for a moment, then took in a breath. “I’ve lost the secret recipe card. And I can’t keep the diner open without it.”

“The Bacon Burger Extreme recipe card?”

“Yes!” She still wouldn’t meet his eyes, and her shoulders were shaking. “Yes.”

Amos sat down heavily in the booth. “Well, that’s not good.”

The first scene only gives character names and dialogue tags. There are no actions and no descriptions. The second scene, however, gives these things. It gives the reader descriptions of the diner, the characters’ actions, and attitudes. Overusing dialogue tags gets boring fast, so add interest into your writing!

So! When you’re writing, consider the attitude of your character, vary dialogue length, and don’t overuse dialogue tags.

Now climb out of the pit of writing despair. Pick up your pen or computer. And write some good dialogue!

Best,

Sparrow

Sol Dimension World Building Ft Silvaze

Hey there everyone, Xeon here and I am here to share a few headcanon ideas that I wanted to go over and share with all of you. So basically, I wanted to review a power scaling thing for the Sol Dimension. So while the Chaos Dimension(Sonic's Dimension) uses Chaos energy to bend reality to their own whims, I have decided that the Sol Dimension's main power is the abundance of elemental users in that dimension. This means that Blaze's world is teeming with people with cryokinesis, pyrokinesis, and aerokinesis, as well as many other elemental users living in the Sol Dimension. While there are elemental users in the Chaos dimension, compared to the Sol Dimension, it's a lot rarer due to the abundance of other abilities and technological advancements I also wanted to add more to the world-building itself by adding characters and locations to this world. As I will talk about later in other posts, there are many other nations besides the Sol empire. However, I wanted to talk about two characters that are tied to Silver and Blaze in this headcanon world-building Khione (Blaze's rival)- I wanted to make a rival for Blaze in her dimension since she is technically an alternate universal counterpart to Sonic so meet my Oc Khione. Khione is an artifical being created to destroy the Sol royal family by her creator and was infused with cryokinesis to make this goal a reality. Since Khione was never given a name by her creator Dr. Abaddon (My Oc who is the Sol Dimension counterpart to Starline), she lacked a sense of agency as Dr.Abaddon spent a decade trying to find ways to bring her to life but was unable to due to Khione lacking memories and as a result, being completely lifeless. However, after Dr. Abaddon studied and copied Blaze's memories onto Khione after he captured her, Khione was finally complete. However, due to having Blaze's memories, she often confuses herself with the original. This idea was originally made by Snow_Cloud4 on Twitter but I wanted to make a slightly different version but this idea is from them. Metal Silver(as a robot)/Prototype Argentum(Bio-android)- For this creation, I wanted to copy what Eggman did for Sonic but for Eggman Nega and Silver. So basically if I'm going the drone route, Nega creates an artificial copy of Silver using Anti gravity technology to copy Silver's psychokinesis but if I go the bio android route, this false Silver will have gravity powers that mimic the original Silver. However, just like with Metal Sonic, this false Silver will often believe he is the original and try to destroy him. For @sonicartisx and @sonicblog
