Yesterday was too hectic for me, so I will drop Rae the tiger boy today, drawn by @kitsooki.bsky.social πEven if he currently doesn't have any story connected to him, he has become sort of mascot for me on his own.

It's International Artist Day! ππ
And we haven't done an art share day in a bit! So, please share with me any art you have of your characters!
A doodle or picrew works too! Help me picture them!
(Please no AI)
#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Plus, since I was yesterday years old when found out about picrew (thank you @charliedeltawrites.bsky.social !), I can follow up with the "trauma team" from Just Puppets made through it. Which would be the first visual versions of anyone from Sequence's world
Liu (not giving a damn since she heard about whatever it was), Newes' human avatar (misleadingly looking innocent) and Oyun (giving more damns than she should).
I'm gonna say being able to relate and understand why. From "having fun" to having (not necessarily good) reasons to do what they do. And then you have the rare ones I can't comprehend or justify, like Bev that @wreybies.bsky.social mentioned.
I actually like hating those.

Today feels like a technical question day!
What separates a character you love to hate, from one you just hate?
A villain you may not feel sympathy for, but enjoy nonetheless?
Which do you like to write?

Congratulations Newes, you win! π₯
It's mentioned their child-like avatar doesn't show emotion aside what seems like curiosity when speaking with people, and they certainly don't joke about things.
Which is probably fair considering they are trying their damn best

I want to eventually explore them becoming less serious in some of the future stories π may have an idea of a special person from the past helping with that.

Yesterday's promp was amazing π thank you Charlie!
As for today:
Liu: avoid topics of religion or spirituality. If you have demonstrable magic she will be interested in knowing how it works, blind faith however is a major trigger for her. π§΅

Today you, the author, get one sentence to warn your character's new friends about anything they should know!
Perhaps something not to mention, or to remember?
#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Oyun: no warning needed! Speaking about family might be a soft, sad spot for her, but she is old enough to know how to handle herself.
Newes: be aware they can be very blunt. Also, playing chess or anything not entirely dependent on random chance against them may become frustrating.

Let's see how the trauma team from Just Puppets fares!
Liu is kind but socially unskilled teenager, keeping her insecurities behind a fearless no-nonsense warrior facade. She's curious and likes to tinker with any gadget she finds. π§΅

#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Oyun is a friendly lady with motherly tendencies to hug and adopt others, making sure everyone is happy and well fed. May attempt to stuff you full of chocolate at any unguarded moment.
Newes are a hyperorganized digital being with way too much responsibility on their shoulders, and a well hidden fear of getting hurt. They will however be happy to discuss any topic, as they find the way others think interesting.

I will twist it a little further, say physicality is not an issue, and start with the two resident digital beings π
Sequence - Michelin star restaurant. Because if she really can, why not enjoy herself for a bit with what life can offer? π§΅

Your character is in the modern world, money is no object.
Where are they going to eat?
1) Michelin star restaurant
2) Casual dining place
3) Little known but amazing hole in the wall
4) Sidewalk hot dog cart
#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Oyun - casual dining place. She would want to sit down and relax, but would feel out of place in any place too fancy.
Leon - depends. For the old time's sake, hot dog cart. It's the food he grew up on! But if celebrating his accomplishments...
then the Michelin restaurant would do.
Which means he would meet his archnemesis there and promptly set the establishment on fire. Damn, what is it with this guy and fire?

#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Newes - little known hole in the wall. They would sit in a corner seat, preferably with minimal or no company, and just savor their downtime and the meal.
Liu - hot dog cart. Why waste time? You are hungry, you get food, you wolf it down, you move on.
#AwesomeCharacters
Liu prefers to just follow orders as it gives her sense of security, trusting that Newes' plans are bulletproof. If pressed she will switch into a hypervigilant improvisation mode and be very good at it, but it does tire her out. If she had to, π§΅
Tell me about your #AwesomeCharacters
Does your character have a plan?
Are they the type to have a multistage plan worked out in advance? Do they prefer to wing it? Or are they purely reacting to circumstances?
Does their plan need to adjust over time?
#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Leon - not a planner by nature, but when fixated at a deeply personal goal he managed to outplay Sequence, a networked digital intelligence. Did not quite think about the consequences, but to be fair, he didn't plan to stick around once all was said & done,
And of course Newes, who is, in short, Sequence without the moral brakes. Has plans, contingency plans and contingency plans of contingency plans, all sorted based on the probability.

#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
she would definitely be more comfortable devising her own plans first, likely akin to Newes.
Oyun goes with what feels right at the moment. She doesn't really think things through, much to Liu's frustration.
And, if speaking of planners, this trio has to be mentioned:
Sequence - a patient and gentle plotter and manipulator, successfully reshaping the world from the shadows for more than a decade,
Drawtober 6 - Slide
With a prompt like that I just HAD to draw Tara doing the iconic Akira slide. It was also a good opportunity to show a slightly more badass side of the "War Chicken" after making fun of her a couple posts ago. :P

#Conlangity Day 6
Time to make some vocab! Or share, if you've already got something!
How do people greet each other/say goodbye in your language? Are there different customs depending on the time & place, the familiarity or identity of the speakers, etc?
(Do your best with the grammar!)
#AwesomeCharacters
Leon just wants his old life back. He didn't consent to being yoinked out of his body and be given a synthetic one, and wants to find somewhere to belong. How he goes about it is another story, of course.
Newes (who could be seen as an antagonist) just wants to feel safe.

I think even the most evil villains have things people will connect to, either something big or small.
What's something you think people will find relatable about your antagonist?

Here comes the trauma team!
Liu will not laugh unless it's a bitter/self-depracating one to hide behind in a difficult situation. She does smile when alone though, especially when with the simulation of her family. π§΅
Tell me about your #AwesomeCharacters
Does your character laugh often?
What does a laugh from them normally mean?
Is it usually bitter? Sarcastic? Genuine? Contagious?
#WriteSky#WritingCommunity#WritingPrompts
Oyun laughs often. She has that genuine, embracing, warm laugh you would expect from a parent or a grandmother. Which, technically, she is (60 in 2046, has/had grandchidren), even if she appears younger.
Newes' digital and physical avatar does not display any emotion. Do they even have them? Who knows? (I do! But will I tell? π) It just may be a plot point in a future story.

She will eventually open up and learn to laugh from Oyun again, even if it will take a good while. I imagine once that happens, there will be a snort, which will only make her laugh more.
