LUMEN Presents: Writer Wednesday!
[Tape starts]
[Unintelligible]
[Muffled sound]
[Page flicking]
#1: Oh!
#2: What did you find?
#1: Today’s [Unintelligible].
#2: Friend… That’s not a word.
#1: I know, I know, Friend, but it’s in Common. They apparently feel the need to tame everything with their existence, even time. Today’s [Unintelligible].
#2: Oh… I didn’t know that. And, please, stop trying to speak Common, it hurts my Watchful ears.
#1: Well, I can’t translate it.
#2: You can! Come on, I know we have a manual on translating Common to Galactic somewhere around here.
[Shuffling sounds]
[Footsteps]
#2: Ahah!
[Footsteps]
[Muffled sound]
[Bam!]
#2: Told you.
#1: Just get on it.
[Multiple page flickings]
[Muffled sound]
#2: So this letter, is this letter…
#1: I hate it when you think out loud. That’s not your job.
#2: Shut up.
[Muffled sound]
[Scribbling]
#2: Ahah! There it is.
#1: Wednesday.
#2: That’s still not a word. Wednesday? What even is that? They just made up a word.
#1: Give them some credit! There’s Day at the end of it.
#2: Yeah, and a day is a made-up concept. But, sure, let’s say I give them that–but Wednesday? Wed? What, am I supposed to marry someone today?
#1: Hey! I didn’t make Common. Or the concept of time, really.
#2: I know. But you still Watch them! I don’t understand it.
#1: You Watch wild life, you never could understand.
#2: Isn’t that coming soon?
#1: What?
#2: Wild Life.
#1: I dunno. I don’t work on that.
#2: Oh well.
#1: Let me get back to work, then.
#2: You’re the one that spoke about your weird Wednesday.
#1: [Unintelligible]!
#2: Ugh.
[Tape ends]
Well, well, well. What do we have here?
Writer Wednesday, you say?
Hi and welcome to Writer Wednesday, where every Wednesday, me and my beautiful team of writers will cook up something for your enjoyment!
Sincerely,
Teri, the Writing Team’s boss.
“Friend!” Friend approached them, calling out their relationship title. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen you with braids! What’s with the new look?”
Ah, right. That. They haven’t worn braids since they were an Apprentice, which was lunar cycles before meeting Friend. That wasn’t surprising. They tell them just that. “Oh, I just wanted to try them out again. Haven’t worn ‘em since I was an Apprentice.”
“You wore braids when you were just an Apprentice?” …They really didn’t know why they didn’t anticipate that reaction. Luckily, Friend wasn’t the judgemental type, but more of a curious person. They had been looking into Listeners, after all, which was way too far in their opinions, but they weren’t talking about that right now.
“Yeah,” They still confirmed to their friend, “My Guardian used to braid my hair, but my Trainer at the time didn’t like that. I had to unbraid them before class and braid them afterwards. It quickly just got tiring–I couldn’t do it anymore.”
Friend looked… Almost skeptical, though they knew better. “I always hated Guardians,” Friend said, but they knew that it was because they never had a Guardian themselves. They smiled at Friend.
“Jaiunus Somnus’ soon,” They informed them, just like everyone else had been doing recently. “See if you still stand by that then.”
“I am not getting a shard!” Friend screeched, and they just laughed.
-
Me? Me? Me? Going insane over different Watcher dynamics? No. never (<--liar)
[Jaiunus Somnus is always represented as something Dark,]
[Though that is not true. I believe I have never seen something as bright as Jaiunus Somnus.]
[“Perhaps Light goes in circles; It hurts our eyes, but only to a certain degree. Once it reaches past that, it is beautiful.]
[I know. I know you think I’m crazy, because who doesn’t?]
[But maybe that’s what THEY intended. Maybe, maybe the only beautiful thing we can ever see is Life, Light in itself.]
Journal of #T3&1, Listener. Learned to Listen, when they should’ve Watched out for the Light.
And that’s gonna have to be all for this Writer Wednesday… I hope you enjoyed! Repent before Jaiunus Somnus, yadidi yadidad, you hear it everyday, don’t cha?
(I love working on Project LUMEN, I promise, the game is ‘boutta be EPIC)

We watch, and you soon will, too. It is a pipedream we all live in. It starts with you and ends with us. Perhaps you'll listen the first whispers of those who speak.

Presenting to you: the super secret [R̶͓͚̼̳̠̥̰̫̳͂̂̒̋̂̋͂̚̚͜͠͝E̸͎̳͆͛́͋̾͠͝D̷͎̼̬͔͛͂A̶͙̻̺̳̾̈͌̀̽͋͆͒̄̏̕͝C̸͔̬̅̊̏̅̑̏͌̂͒́̉͆̿̚Ţ̴̨̞̯͈͈̻͖̹̙̐̓́̀͐̔̃̎̃̅̿͝͝͠Ẹ̸̃́̒̍̾̅̅͝D̴̛̮͍͈̙͖̙̿̍̇̇̎̄̿́͘̕] project!
I'm excited to announce that we have a YouTube channel for Project LUMEN! Our first video is an informational one about what we're doing, but we put a lot of effort into making it fun. There's also a sneak peek of art that's going to be in the game... so check it out!
Make sure to subscribe because we have more planned to share on there! The video itself tells you a few of our plans... hehehe.

Announcing: Sketchy Saturdays with Project LUMEN!!!!!!!
Why hello there! Pie here, coming to you from the trenches of background art!
To give a little fun, Project LUMEN is happy to announce we’re going to be doing weekly posting called Sketchy Saturdays! This is where every Saturday we post art related to the project for you all to enjoy. There will also be fun things like behind-the-scenes sketches of backgrounds, talking sprites for the game, and more >:).
There will also be Writer Wednesdays, where our lovely writers can yap about the game's lore (without spoilers, of course), share cute little pieces they’ve made in the universe, short stories, and some other awesome stuff related to this brilliant project! But that'll come later.
Today we bring you Watcher Child art from behind the scenes. Next week? You’ll just have to wait and see <3.


Artists in order of the art shown:
Pie, Owl, Arto, Goner, Charly, Pie, and Charly (Below).
We very much appreciate the excitement there is about this project! We still have more fun things to come, so keep an eye out! See you all next week for the next edition of Sketchy Saturday <3 If you can't wait that long, then here's a special little sneak peek for a lil funsies <3

(A very delayed intro)
A new person flops onto the stage!
"Hello everyone! I'm Pie (@thedoomedpie), and I've finally escaped the watche- overcome shyness to introduce myself to you all!
I'm a background artist for this beautiful project, and I'm also king of the background artists (very loosely) and the Leader of [ⱤɆĐ₳₵₮ɆĐ]! I'm the first resident aussie (Tay's been demoted to third, Kori's the second (liar)). I love things like black holes (I'm currently studying astrophysics in uni!!!), Pearlescentmoon (among literally every other lifer), and I love everyone I've met working on this project! Feel free to ask me literally any questions!!!
You'll see me very soon for some fun new things! Peace!!!"

We have both angst and wholesomeness in store! Including but not limited to Renchanting, Desert Duo, Ranchers, the 3Gs, and pretty much all duos/teams, there's something special for all of them :3

Hi hi! I had two questions! Are you guys writing every season of the life series, or just one? Two, do you know when new applications might come out? I'm totally not obsessed with joel and totally wouldn't be willing to write him wink
Hello hello! Thanks for the questions :3
We are writing them all, every single one, all seven. >:3
Mmmmmm, we are thinking about opening applications again around August-September, so stay tuned! :D

I think that project LUMEN is really really cool! People make fanworks in so many different mediums, whether it be writing, art, cosplaying, edits, or other ways. I’m very excited to see that list expand into video games. Also I love the Watcher lore and getting to play in a game that has them will be epic. Cannot wait to see how project LUMEN turns out :D
