#Story & Plot

The Wishing Kingdom: Chapter 1: Our Story Starts

(The screen is blank for a few seconds, until a font that says “A few years later” appears, one that faded away, we get our first glimpse of the hamlet, in that area, there’s triangle-shaped roofs of each house staked onto cobblestone rocks in front of some swoopy trees as it’s built as a safe habitat for others to stay safe from the king and queen, then, we see some ragged-clothed people holding on to some laundry and some soil to create a fireplace for themselves to stay warm and to make some food from it as well.)

(Like this shot from The Last Unicorn except it’s showing the rest of the Hamlet.)

After 2 minutes of all that is going on, we get introduced to 12-year-old Asha as she is seen sleeping in her bedroom until the sunshine splashes on her face, waking herself up even though it was so early in the morning.

“Woah! Is it that time already, it’s gone fast than I can hardly imagine!” Asha stretches her arms while seated in her bed, she also got a small glimpse of her pet goat, Valentino with a piece of white cloth on his mouth persuading her to do her work.

“MAAAAAA” Valentino screeched with such enthusiasm.

“Hey there bud, ready to start the day?” She hops out of bed to touch his face as she gently takes the cloth out his mouth, not long after, we get to see Sakina and Sabino walking over to Asha’s side.

“Awww, our little Asha being a grown-up lass, isn’t she just so gentle?” Sabino touches her cheek playfully while he gives his hand to petting Valentino, Sakina joins in too before she is urged to say something as well.

“Yeah, you’re so right, dear, and she will always remain to be here with us for eternity.” She slowly looks at Asha, a slow orchestral background plays that is so loving and gentle before Asha speaks.

“Awww, thank you guys, I could’ve never asked for anything better, now, who’s ready for chores?” She got herself up and held up the white cloth as if she were one of those guards, almost leaving confusion on Valentino, Sakina and Sabino’s faces.

That is until Valentino started jumping around Asha with his paw gesturing the outside of the hamlet, being impatient, from that reaction, Sabino, Sakina and Asha look at each other before they shrugged, grabbed their equipment and opened the door to a brand new day, which leads to the first song!

Our Hamlet/ Our Rosas

In this opening musical number, it shows us what life is like between both worlds, the hidden hamlet which was made as a safe habitat for folks who want to be safe from the king and queen who held Rosas captive, it’s a bit like “Belle”, “Circle of Life” and “Steady as The Beating Drum”, it’s sort of like that but more of a welcome edition to the world.

(Before the song starts, Asha opens the cottage doors with Sabino and Sakina by her side as she grabs her basket to get her work done!)

(Asha)

The people have so much joy in the air,

They know a brand new day is here to stay,

It’s the same morning,

The town here is shining, whoops sorry!

(During the first line, we get a shot of a few people walking around and doing their work with smiles on their faces while Asha strolls around with her basket following every step, in the final line, she accidentally bumps into a young man who is just about to finish his laundry, as she runs off, he rolls his eyes and continues with what he is doing.)

Everyone’s got something,

On their mind that’s spinning,

Behind these roots and those leaves,

Lies a town I can’t leave!

(While Asha is singing the second line, she is seen jumping down on the stairs of each cottage simply made of rocks while observing the people around her, when she says the third line, she gestures the trees and spins around them as if this is her place of comfort.)

(Everyone)

Here inside this hamlet,

We grab the cloth and go,

The scrubbin, the washing,

Is all we have to hold,

Here inside this hamlet,

Our wishes stay aglow,

Who knows what miracles,

Have in store,

In our hamlet.

(With the chorus going in, we go into some townspeople telling others about the work and using their hard work as a purpose to keep their wishes glowing, in one shot, Leo is seen guarding one house whereas Dextrous sleeps on his shoulder, he wakes up suddenly to start guarding, in the final line, we than pan over to the kingdom of Rosas, where King Magnifico and Queen Amaya rule over their subjects.

A citizen of Rosas starts to sing as he is carrying a massive sack of royalty for the king and queen)

(Citizen 1)

With all this load left to hold, I might drain,

What if they find out, they might go insane!

(Citizen 2)

These broken wings of mine,

Yet when will they fly again?

(Both citizens are at the marketplace of Rosas when singing those lines, the first line is supposed to show how the people are forced to work tirelessly with no sleep in order to please the king and queen, and also, the line “these broken wings of mine, yet when will they fly again?” that citizen 2 is singing, the line is supposed to highlight how the citizens of Rosas are enslaved by Magnifico and Amaya’s power forcing them to do everything they say, but the question that is sung emphasises freedom for themselves so that they can pursue their own dreams of their own.)

(Both citizens)

It feels like death is holding on to me,

Just you wait for the day, we’d all be free!

(All citizens)

Right here in Rosas,

Where flowers stay bloomed,

Where a tragedy hits so deep,

Which made our home so bruised,

Right here in Rosas,

We’re holding onto our hopes,

Who knows what lies beneath this hoax,

Behind those heavy doors,

In our Rosas,

In our hamlet!

(In the last chorus, we get a massive set of choreography where the citizens are gathering around as they are dancing around the plaza, in one shot, you get a medium shot of a few people in rags being persuaded to dance along with the citizens, in another shot, some people dance around the statues of Magnifico and Amaya paired together, throughout this number, we get the idea that the Hamlet is a safe haven where they keep their wishes protected whereas Rosas is a literal dystopia where slavery is forced by the king and queen.)

After the number, the camera goes right back to the hamlet where Asha is just about to get her work finished.

There’s a point where she spots Dextrous humming the previous song whilst leaning against the cottage door, her hand rested on his shoulder while she suggests him to get on with his job.

“Eh, sorry miss, I’m just bothered at the moment, it’d be best if you leave me here to rest.” Dextrous replied as his eyes are half-closed like he was about to go to sleep.

“Oh, come on, doing your own work isn’t so bad after all.” She expressed while her hands grasped onto her basket of laundry where she was about to head to the river nearby, that is until Leo arrives with her sketchbook in his hand.

“Heh, looks like you forgot this! Now let’s see here, hmm…” He snoops over her pages (not in a mean way but more of a playful yet innocent way.) which only made Asha twitch her eye a bit, so she starts some banter while he still has her book.

“Been swearing, haven’t ya?”

“No, no I haven’t, I was only just filled with smoke, how can I not puff it all out?” Her sarcastic voice puts him off a bit but it doesn’t bother him.

“Heh, I didn’t know you can tell me how this got you to write like this?”

“Stop playing, Leo, it’s just my thoughts, and personally, it’s like everyone has a story.” She snatches the book of him while she rubs it with her apron, catching Leo and Dextrous aghast when she says that everyone has a story.

“Well, yeah, that is the truth.” She starts opening her sketchbook to show her some of her drawings with Leo and Dextrous. “This here is where I started my first drawing, I know it isn’t perfect like you guys would say it is.”

“Perfect?! Since when did I hear someone say perfect throughout their whole life?” Leo raised his eyebrow, he knew it was all a joke.

Asha’s eyes knitted the friends. “Um, dunno, it just came out of my head, the fact that it’s not really my best drawings…”

“Oh come on, we all love your drawings, imperfect or not.” Dextrous opened his eyes and expressed his true feelings to his trusted friend.

“Thanks… But, I feel like…” After Asha stutters on what is trying to come out of her mouth, we are shown that in a few pages of her messed up sketches and doodles to different types of constillations, gliding across the book as if its a first draft on her finished work,

(This is used to emphasise on how Asha has been willing to inspire people through her own work, she knows that sketching and writing her thoughts is her only strength and she has a fault for seeing the eyes of other people, but in terms of art style, she’s willing to improve as well.)

Leo and Dextrous were wide-mouthed after seeing her pages. “I see, it’s as deep as I could’ve imagined as well.”

“But no matter what happens, you don’t need to always say that you need time to finish with whatever you’re doing, what matters is that we’re here to support you, Asha, just remember that!” Leo’s words fuelled her heart which opened so wide with admiration.

“I mean, yeah, you are the one who fills the world with sunshine.” Dextrous replies as well. (There’s your first reference of the rewrite, Snow White right here, but this is used to describe how much Asha cares for her friends so much and they're willing to support her.)

“So you mean that whenever you’re turning black, I’m the one who completely changes your colour to make you brighter with my heart?” She questioned, she didn’t quite get it all at once.

“Yes, that’s what we mean.” Leo answered back.

Unfortunately, we hear Gilllia’s anger behind the cottage nearby, she is called by him but she walks over with her arms crossed and sat at the furthest pit of the cottage they were standing with.

“WHATS ALL THE FUSS ABOUT?! DIDNT MY DAY JUST CRUMBLE?! Her croaky voice caught everyone’s attention all of a sudden.

“Looks like someone got hit by the wrong ball over there!” Dextrous joked as he gestures right towards Gillia.

“Dextrous!” Leo scoffed and knudged him in the arm leaving him shocked.

“Anyway, what’s the point of showing these sketches and making them your life source, kind of a waste if you think about it.” She said more calmly but she still had that temper slipping through her veins.

“Oh Gilllia, it’s not that bad of a habit, unless you get bored of it like it’s the same thing, but you see here, this page looks off, can you see? Here?” Asha walks over to her and then gestures the page of a drawing of a hamlet citizen, (a concept art version if you want to put it correctly.)

It takes her a bit of time to figure out what is wrong with Asha’s drawing, she instead replies with, “There’s not a single thing I can point out, Asha, the drawing is actually quite good, since when did you get this sort of talent?”

“Taught it myself, you know, I was thinking I’d tell you guys since I’ve been curious about what wishes you’ll write for the stars.” The topic slowly changed as soon as Asha is sat between her friends whilst she is hesitant for their answers.

“To be honest, I don’t know what to wish for, but I’ve heard so many stories about the stars years ago.” This was Leo’s only answer he could come up with before Dextrous took his turn to answer.

“No matter how much I might’ve said this, I think I might wish to be more aware of my surroundings.” Dextrous looks down at his feet after that, “But I feel like I’m getting the hang of it, ya know?”

Gillia’s eyebrows transform into a distant frown when she was asked about what she wanted to wish for, but everyone else knew that her mouth was closed, maybe she isn't ready yet or she doesn't feel like talking about it with her other friends, even though they are the ones who she can trust.

“I guess she isn't ready yet, maybe we'll ask her at some point.” Dexterous patted on her shoulder and eyed right at Asha as she is about to pick her own laundry up from the basket.

“Yeah, but I feel like I also don't know what to wish for, making a wish is complicated because there are so many opportunities one person can hold, but does it really matter if we sit down with our head on the desk, we think about what drives us to pursue that wish?” Leo sighed while he slowly caught a glimpse of the morning sky. “When the stars come out, I hope they answer one’s call.”

“Don't worry, Leo, I’m sure they will come out someday, I know it, and it goes for all of you, when your wish is shown on a ribbon, the stars will listen closely and make sure to grant it as soon as possible!” Asha replied to Leo as his heart slowly began to warm up from her wisdom.

We then take a few seconds for the friend group to look at their hearts to make sure that their wishes are secured, meanwhile, Asha glanced at a castle not so far away and then looked back at where she was, until a voice appears…

“Asha! Time to go back home now!” The voice shouted from a distance.

From there, she starts to pack her laundry and before going straight away, she slowly starts saying goodbye to her friends and they wave back as she climbs up the rocks all the way back to her cottage.

*****************

Final Notes

This is the first chapter that I fully wrote to start off the story of “The Wishing Kingdom”, with the hamlet and Rosas song, I wanted to show you different sides of both worlds and how each person lives their regular life, what I also wanted to show you was the dynamic between Asha and her three friends with each of them supporting one another.

Forgot to mention that the montage of Asha’s drawings, I wanted to use that as a metaphor as to what Walt Disney truly meant when he wanted to create fairy tales into movies, like he did with Snow White, it's also a metaphor for animation as a whole, you know like teaching yourself the basic principles and how they inhabit life into characters and objects!

But don't worry, in Chapter 2, you will see Sakina, Sabino and Asha’s dynamic whilst also getting our first glimpse of the king and queen of Rosas and what they do for a living as well. But in that chapter alone, you will see that the wishes mean so much more to the Hamlet according to Sabino, so you will get more of him, so for now, stay tuned for more!

Just remembered the "What If V2" series of the older marvel comics. Ororo and Logan's daughter Kendall/Torrent was soo cool!

Also (alongside Logan looking so comfortable), they have a very young son too, but he wasn't named.

What do you think his name is or should be? What kind of powers would he have?

I don't know this for sure... but I heard a theory that his name might have actually been (....wait for it....) Evan Munroe...

I don't know if this is actually true or just someone tossing flames, but if it was, then this would make a lot of sense

It seems kind of far-fetched to think this to many, myself included... but if you look at different places in the episodes of Evolution where Evan Daniels is, there are subtle hints. Like when he signed up for the skateboard competition...

Spoiler alert: he didn't sign on where the D's were...

Also how Ororo is specially connected to him (of course if he is her nephew then she'd be particularly interested in him just in general) it also looks like he and Logan got familiarized a lot in the show to......... of course that would happen with the whole teacher/ student thing, but I personally think there's more to it. I input it in the fanfics that I write.

Personally, I have a theory that Ororo and Logan were together before the series started and had a son together, then they were forced to split ways because of Weapon X. When he disappeared, she went to look for him and had to leave their son with her sister and brother in law. After it became clear that Logan was so debilitated mentally that he couldn't be the dad they all wanted and needed him to be at that time, she decided that it would be best for everyone involved to leave little Evan with his aunt and uncle, and they ended up raising him as their own. He found out the truth during the show, and that's one reason he acted out so much... they just hid it because you know how Marvel's handled that couple so far 😞

The only countering factors would be I don't think Ororo would abandon her child like that... but then again, she loves Logan more than anyone ever, so maybe her heart just couldn't take it 🤷🏼‍♀️

I could debate myself and others on the subject for days, hahaha 😅

But, back to the original question..... I don't know... it could be my theory, or it could be something else... I have a name for one of their kids in my fanfics. Their youngest son (so far 🤭) is Ayotunde. Which means "joy has come again" in Yoruba.

What would your preferred name for him be? Do you have a name idea?

[little-frog-writes]

More plans for that Mermaid ISAT Au I was working on! Now I know I should be writing for my other stories, but this silly little plot is taking over my head. I can’t stop thinking about it!

I fell like Bonnie would be the type to imitate everything their sister does and ends up following her to work more often than not. Because of this little habit, Bonnie would sneak onto the merchants ships that Nille works for. Usually, this would end up in a light scolding from their sister, but this time pirates attack the ship and the siblings were separated in the chaos.

Nille pushes Bonnie into one of the last life boats, ending up saving their life at the cost of being separated. She gives Bonnie her hair chain in order for Bonnie to agree to leave in the dingy life boat (Not very stable cause the merchant ship Nille worked for was sketchy ‘hence the pirate attack).

Bonnie would be lost at sea for a while until a mermaid (Siffrin) finds them and brings them back home (unknowing to the mer). They would be found covered in dried bits of seaweed, cuts, and bruises. Bonnie would be unconscious throughout the whole journey to the mainland causing Frin to worry (Bonnie doesn’t end up finding out about Frin’s mermaid-ness until much later in the story).

Siffrin would give them the “sea’s blessing” (A mystery tattoo in the shape of a strange symbol (A star). No one knows where it comes from, but it is said to bring good luck to anyone’s ship if a person with the symbol is present.) on their upper arm. For Siffrin, the symbol is a way for them to see if the random guppy they found is alright and also works as a tracker. He can find Bonnie anywhere they are and would later follow their trail after being worried about them (and maybe also boredom from being kept in the sea for so long/ the need to explore).

Bonnie doesn’t care about the cool new protection they have and only wants to find their sisters which would eventually lead them to Odile’s research boat where the party meets up. They would sneak onto the vessel thinking it was a merchant ship, but ends up convincing Odile to help them anyway.

Isabeau was a guard Odile hired to protect her ship while sea bound and Mira is a researcher who transferred over to Odile’s team from Euphrasie branch, therefore the party meets and the story begins.

None of them realizes what lays in store for them ahead, but relationships and silly confrontations start soon after Siffrin finds his way on board Odile’s ship. Maybe if I ever write more for it we can see where this would lead, lol.

🕯️How I Write a Powerful Ending 🕯️

.…………………………………………………………………………

In my opinion, the ending is the most important part of the story and the one with the most potential. Endings transcend the plot and dive into the philosophical, extrascential aspects of the story. They should leave a blinding impact and impression onto the reader.

My endings can be classified in the “ending changes everything” category and mainly apply to tragic stories. However, they also make powerful, satisfying, and positive endings. Their power lies in their thematic conclusion, intertwined with symbolism, and their striking nature. My endings are usually a paragraph long but can even be a single sentence. The last sentence should changes the perspective of the story and evokes a feeling of deeper understand that was not evident before. Doing so, can elevate your story and make it something your reader will think about even after they turn the page.

First, consider the themes and symbolism throughout your story and how the themes can be resolved instead of how the story’s plot can be resolved! A thematic conclusion is much more satisfying than a plot’s conclusion. Symbolism adds another layer of depth, can leave your reader gripping their heads afterward in shock, and is a great way to disguise these themes until the very end.

Then, place the ending directly after the climax to stay in the heat of the moment: after the last strike of a battle scene or last word of a confrontation. Endings tend to be more striking when they are in the midst of action and tension, rather than a slow, calm falling action.

Finally, express the blinding moral or meaning in a striking statement! Choose your words wisely and relate them to symbolism and themes!

Here is an example:

Recently, I wrote a story with moth symbolism and a girl slowly descending into madness and her rage. After a destructive climatic scene, I ended the story with the sentence, “Like a moth, she had left her biting mark”

I hope this helps! Reblogs are appreciated!

XOXO,

And then I said, "Wait Are our bodies really piles of dirt? And is the soul just a metaphor? I keep my eyes from looking too far up I fear that there is a Heaven above"

(Wait by My Dear Hunter)

Newt has a lot of nature simbolism in the main story (especially flowers), and in Another chance AU it has a meaning of him staying true to himself and keeping a link to his "humanity". You know, it wouldn't be a TMA AU without these themes hehe Time for plot!

Newt wasn't killed by an attack that cost him an eye and a wing, but it did make him question his faith in avatars and in his closest avatar friend, Irbis. And it made him very, very afraid - enough to never let go of his trusted crossbow. Never again, at least. Traveling with the last survivors of Morticians wasn't easy, as their quest seemed to only get them in more troubles with the Fears - sometimes even dragons. Still, Newt would prefer to stay with his family. Even if half of it only reminded him of the worst thing that ever happened to him. Long search got the trio acquainted with a group of monster hunters. Stargazer would give anything for information at this point, and trusting normal, non-monstrous dragons seemed like a good idea. Irbis wasn't too pleased to hide while Newt and Stargazer go to hunter's fort, but who was she to object? ...Newt didn't have much time for regret while he was chased by hunters, who didn't care if he was a monster or a dragon. A great sense of dread flew through him as he sprinted around the corner to see a dead end. In panic he turned around, hoping to find another exit. The last thing he saw was his own weapon, pointed at his heart.

(I had this image in my mind for a couple of days, and now it's an actual picture :) Also, it feels so unbelievably good to stretch out my artistic muscles and just draw something really quick, stylised and inspired… I haven't felt that happy in weeks, makes me remember why I'm an artist :3)

This-is-trash phase

Don’t worry if you think your writing is terrible. That’s what editing is for. In fact, every masterpiece has probably been through at least one 'this is trash' phase before becoming great. Consider your trash phase character-building for both you and your story.

explain the branches of gtfo ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ for me ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ janek mention ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

EXPLAIN MYSELF 🕊️

Main point: the core differences between branches lie in the manifestations of decay and its method of pushing Juneau out. The longer she stays in the band’s reality, the worse things get. The only thing that changes is what it is that gets worse.

All branches include:

Juneau Askoak (age 22): Lead singer and synthesizers

Sylvia Sebald (age 23): Lead guitar

Roy Jurado (age 22): Bass guitar

Oscar Jurado (age 16): Drums

Lyn Seaver (age 24): Band Manager

Bonnie Glass (age 21): Marketing

Danny Caulfield (age 22): Marketing

Hallucinations that reflect Juneau’s ability to look into other realities

…and Juneau being sent back to her own reality.

BRANCH 1: Main Cast

Each member of the band experiences increasingly more abstract hallucinations that reflect Juneau’s ability to look into other realities.

Hallucinations begin at different points in time for each person, with Oscar’s starting first, followed by Juneau, Roy, Lyn, then Sylvia.

Follows a monster-of-the-week style of conflict, except it’s just one person fighting their own "monster" on the astral plane and they look kind of crazy/high to outsiders…

Things start small and manageable, taking the form of names (coooough.... janek..... @radiumjuice coughhfghfh) or objects, then gradually snowball into crowds of people and entire buildings.

Juneau leaves willingly after..... ahem... something happens.

BRANCH 2: Adeline Griffiths ( @silliestsillygoose )

Adeline is a Commission agent sent to extract Juneau from the band’s reality and send her back home, but develops an affection for her and the atmosphere, and delays her job, allowing things to spiral for a bit longer.

Same hallucination process as Branch 1, more of a focus on the others rather than Juneau as pressure comes more from Addy.

As Juneau experiences the lowest severity of hallucination, she does not take the situation as seriously until the group gets bad enough for it to become clear what was happening.

Addy is forced to abandon her affection in order to complete her job, literally having to chase Juneau down to send her back.

Shorter timeline than Branch 1.

BRANCH 3: The Public & The Environment

Rather than only the main cast being affected by decay, it works more like a ripple, expanding its radius outward to the population.

Honestly more designed to be a horror story than the other two branches, which lean toward thriller comedy.

The people are affected first, HOWEVER, it does evolve to the environment changing toward the end.

People’s homes and belongings start to change and spot different colors or textures, like a “Bad Case of Stripes” thing.

The final straw that forces Juneau to leave is when people start to change similarly to how their homes and belongings did, with different iterations of themselves.

I SURE HOPE I DIDN'T FORGET ANYTHING OR MISPLACE STUFF. I DON'T THINK I DID BUT YEAH!!!!!!!!

[ask-diane]

The next morning, Diane and Sammy said their goodbyes to their friends of Saroka- and began their journey through Imaros.

Diane of course is thrilled to be finally making a move on things...

"Come on Sammy!," Diane says as she speeds a head of Sammy down the trail.

Sammy tries to keep up the best he can with her, but fails repeatedly. He pauses for breaks every so often, then continues to chase after the skitty. After a bit of trial and failure, Diane decides to simply walk, for Sammy's sake.

Finally able to catch up with her, Sammy blurts out with exhaustion, "Man it's been a minute since I've run like that. I stay in Saroka so much anymore- I don't really go many places anymore. Let alone considering to dash somewhere."

Diane giggles, "Well at least this trip will benefit you too, huh?"

Sammy chuckles.

"Well you know I'm not really going on this for my benefit, right?," Sammy says with a smirk on his face.

Diane playfully smacks Sammy with her tail.

"Oh yeah mister- you keep making fun of my sense of direction all you want~ Though someday it'll come back to bite you in the tail "

Both Diane and Samny try to keep straight faces, but fail miserably. Both burst with laughter. Once the laughter dies down a bit Diane purposes a question.

"Alright alright- In all seriousness though, is there anything that you want to do or want to go see while we're doing this?"

Sammy thinks for a moment.

"Uh- well yeah there are some things I hope to do while we're out n about in Imaros. I've got some old friends that have probably missed me for a minute- and there are some old shops I'd like to visit if any are still open."

"Well as your friend- I promise to stop wherever you'd want to go on this journey."

Sammy gives Diane a smile with his eyes.

"Heh, alright. But promise youll keep your word?"

"I promise! That's a Diane guarantee."

"Well alright then."

"Hang on though- Uhhhh where are we headed first again, you said? I forgot hehe..."

"Our first stop? Its Tulip Town."

...

*Diane and Sammy have officially begun their quest*

Hey y’all, here is another test animation I did in my spare time but I experimented with a more choppy style where I animated 12 frames per second, kinda like Spider-Verse, Mutant Mayhem and The Last Wish.

Also, I was thinking of this earlier on throughout the process of “The Wishing Kingdom” rewrite, my idea is that I could animate some musical numbers and some of the scenes as well but the majority of the project will be half animated and half animatic, so yeah, pretty much those ideas won’t change anytime soon, so some advice would be really nice for both my animation and my rewrite!

[harunayuuka2060]

In the illustrious Moon Empire's grand hall, Eclaire Stoneheart, the respected Marchioness of the influential Stoneheart family, gracefully bowed before the emperor, drawing whispers from the audience. The nobles exchanged hushed opinions, questioning her audacity.

"How can a mere marchioness address the emperor?" they murmured. "She should know her place."

As Arche Bouvier, the youthful ruler, greeted Eclaire, the nobles continued their quiet discussions, casting doubtful glances.

"I am well, Your Imperial Majesty," Eclaire replied to Arche's question about her well-being.

"Why not grace the dancefloor with me? Let's celebrate this occasion together," proposed Arche.

While the nobles resumed their discussions, Eclaire and Arche exchanged subtle, amused looks, each sharing their intentions through their expressions.

Eclaire's gaze seemed to ask, 'What's your intention?'

Arche's matching expression silently responded, 'To add a little excitement, my dear author.'

Eclaire Stoneheart, once known as Alicia, was a former author who had penned the book "Randomness Until It Gets To Something." She had hastened the conclusion of her book after falling ill, aiming for a regret-free publication before her life ended prematurely.

Continuing the tale, Arche Bouvier, also known as Janice in a past life, had been an avid reader of Alicia's work, often humorously criticizing the author. Janice's life was cut short due to an accident.

Both Alicia and Janice transmigrated into the story of "Randomness Until It Gets To Something" as Eclaire and Arche.

"Arche, you really ought to be careful. What if someone notices something odd about us?" Eclaire cautioned when they found themselves alone.

Arche shrugged off the concern, replying, "Don't worry, Eclaire. Your characters aren't exactly the sharpest tools in the shed."

Eclaire protested, "Take that back!"

And so, amidst the grandeur of the Moon Empire, their shared adventure began, fueled by the convergence of two distinct yet intertwined souls.

you know i'm not into dark movies but i make a exception because in this story Terence is the main character and i want the story to focus on Terence so badly after Disney used him as a background character after "The Lost Treasure" movie, i mean can you imagine Terence is what keeps Tinkerbell alive after she get in a coma after she got a terrible accident? i love to see that in the movie it can change a bit because in "The Pirate Fairy" movie Zarina got added and maybe even Nyx (she and Tinkerbell aren't that close in my opinion though) Nyx is a scout fairy so she can protect others from danger and Zarina can create a medicine or something so Tinkerbell don't feel any pain or do other things that makes things a little easier for Tinkerbell even if she's in some sort of coma

Terence was the reason Tinkerbell decided to stay in pixie hollow twice so i'm sure he'll do something to keep Tinkerbell alive even if others stopped believing Tinkerbell will be okay

poor Terence he'll take it the hardest from everybody if Tink is in a terrible accident or worse dying because their friendship grew only stronger over time and Terence seems to have a crush on a Tinker and if you have a crush on someone, you'll take it the hardest if there's bad news about this person

i want this in a movie so badly, it may not have the adventure element but to make it up it's about keeping someone alive by believing in it someone will become better when in a coma, that's what i love about this fanfic (Tinkerbell at near the end of the story completely recovers and can speak normally without others taking care of her)

i'll sacrifice everything to have Terence as the main character in the movie (completely based on him this time)

.•*.º✦ My Sandwich Plotting Method ✦º .•*

………………………………………………………………………….

The realm of plotting can be a difficult to transverse and it’s quite easy to get tangled up in the sea of scenes. Over the course of my story writing, I’m developed a method that may be a compass to your journey!

Before beginning the plotting process, I develop the:

✦ Concept (initial idea, tone, atmosphere)

✦ Setting (time & place)

✦ Characters (& inner struggles)

✦ Conflict (problem of the story)

✦ MESSAGE!! (a moral, lesson, or dicussion of themes is so important for a well-rounded story)

Like making a sandwich, I first grab two loafs of bread: the beginning and ending.

Instead of getting caught up on the stuffing of the sandwich and middle of the story, I initially only plan the exposition and the falling slope of the climax. Sometimes, I even write the ending before I write the beginning! By doing so, the process of plotting is much more simplified, my message is clearly reflected, my character development is fully resolved, and my ending is much more powerful and potent!

With a sense of direction, the rising action has a much clearer course ! Now, to plot the middle, you only have to identify how to get from point A to point B, and what scenes or circumstances are necessary for your beginning to morph into your ending! Once you identify these plot points, you have the full creativity to manifest the remaining scenes in whatever way you like!

Remember:

✦ As the rising action progresses, tension rises and the imminent problem increases!

✦ Setbacks occur, questions are raised, & the stakes are increased leading up to the climax

I hope this helps!
