Grasps You ✊️ Hello. I Simply Must Say That I Love The Designs For Rev And Mara, The Stardust Parts

(me when the pronoun bug is crawling on me) damn i’m it/she….

I love seeing other people's ocs and getting snippets of their stories like oh my gosh there's a whole world and narrative in your head that I'm getting a small glimpse into isn't that so cool????

Apparently a lot of people get dialogue punctuation wrong despite having an otherwise solid grasp of grammar, possibly because they’re used to writing essays rather than prose. I don’t wanna be the asshole who complains about writing errors and then doesn’t offer to help, so here are the basics summarized as simply as I could manage on my phone (“dialogue tag” just refers to phrases like “he said,” “she whispered,” “they asked”):

“For most dialogue, use a comma after the sentence and don’t capitalize the next word after the quotation mark,” she said.

“But what if you’re using a question mark rather than a period?” they asked.

“When using a dialogue tag, you never capitalize the word after the quotation mark unless it’s a proper noun!” she snapped.

“When breaking up a single sentence with a dialogue tag,” she said, “use commas.”

“This is a single sentence,” she said. “Now, this is a second stand-alone sentence, so there’s no comma after ‘she said.’”

“There’s no dialogue tag after this sentence, so end it with a period rather than a comma.” She frowned, suddenly concerned that the entire post was as unasked for as it was sanctimonious.

My personal Wonderlust headcanon is that the people of Reclaim don’t name a kid at birth, they just call them random nicknames until they find whichever one sticks (usually taking at least two or three years).

Friends and family started calling him Blink because of his big eyes. Runt was obviously small and sickly, making her the runt of the litter. Pinch had a habit of grabbing people really hard as a baby. WD successfully got hold of a can of WD-40 as a toddler and drank some of it. Do we see the vision?

You're about to close on your very own, suspiciously affordable and comfortable house. Just before you sign the contract, the realtor shows you the required legal disclosure: your new house is haunted by the type of presence you'll get from this spinner wheel.

Of course it is.

popping chips head off like a Barbie doll, look at my undead chip horror :D
