Kwasiyaa is too sad for the portal

Sometimes Robbie exaggerates

Maddie's first line of dialogue

Ash in a false sense of security

Gabriel and Parker being petty

Here's an old fairy story I wrote

Noelle's sarcasm

Woah Jedi stood his ground against Carmen??

Drop - from The Secret Portal Part One

The portal closed around them, and the two fell through the colorful gateway to the other world. Kwasiyaa hardly felt the sudden drop.

Change(d) - from The Secret Portal Part One (Maddie POV)

My surroundings changed instantly. One second, I was outside Falcon Intermediate, and the next, the middle of an endless field with short grass and air that smelled so strongly of nothing it was unnerving. The humidity was gone, and so seemed to be the sun. The others were there, so I guessed Lexi and Ash had been there, too.

Freeze - from The Secret Portal Part One (Ash POV)

I lifted the lid off the box, dropping the devices inside. To be safe, I rearranged the puzzle pieces, dropping a few on top of the devices. I slid the lid back on and pushed the box back to where I’d found it. I began to crawl out from under the bed when a shuffling sound caused me to freeze.

Boil - from The Secret Portal Part One (Robbie POV)

At this point, my tolerance was at the level of the Dead Sea and threatening to break through Earth’s crust and boil me from the inside out in the mantle.

Cut - from The Secret Portal Part One (Rose POV)

Dr. Asghar opened her mouth but was cut off by a ding from the computer. She fixed her glasses somehow another time and looked down at the screen. The constant intensity of her brow faded into shock. She grabbed the communicator again. “Jedi, hurry the hell up!”

Hope(d) - from The Secret Portal Part One (Maddie POV)

“Your glasses are smudged.” Kelsey removed them and rubbed them on what I hoped, for the safety of her lenses, was a cotton shirt.

Glass - from The Secret Portal Part One (Ash POV)

“I hope you girls are having fun,” he said. “We are, Mr. Jimenez,” I said. “Thanks for having me.” I looked down at the glass of milk I held in my hand. “It’s nice to be out of the house for once.”

Luck(y) - from The Secret Portal Part One (Gwen POV)

“I don’t need one of those,” Parker bragged. “Air’s kinda everywhere.” “Lucky you.” Gabriel said through gritted teeth. “More ways for you to be a hazard to society.” “You’ve been spending too much time in the dirt. It’s making you so stony. Pun intended. Pretty sure all the dust is infiltrating your brain and making you such a dud to be around.”

Music - from The Secret Portal Part One (Lexi POV)

We left the Music Wing and exited toward the commons. “Do you know what Gwen, Rose, and Noelle’s last periods are?” Ash asked. “Gwen has science, Rose: art, and Noelle has… math,” I answered. “How do you know these things?” Ash asked as she rolled the sleeves up of her red flannel. “Like, you have everyone’s schedule memorized!” “Pfft, no I don’t.” I waved hello to Julian Austin as he ran by. “Really? What’s Julian’s fourth period?” Ash asked. I pushed open the door with my shoulder, pausing briefly to think. “Gym.”

Noise - from The Secret Portal Part One (Akash POV)

Noelle raised her right arm. I followed her gesture to see the lights on the ceiling shake—then a short popping sound burst and all the lights went out. I didn’t notice the noise until it suddenly became silent. An unsettling shudder caused a temporary falter of my grip as I lost any sign of the people in the room, but I quickly regained it.

Melody - from "Half of the Magic"

“Whatcha doing here again?” “Nothing, Sorrel,” he muttered, staring back at the ripples. “Harper Melody, I am your closest friend.” She paused. “Sorry, your only friend.” “Hey!” “My point is, I know you. You always come here for a reason. What is it this time?” Harper sighed. “Do you know what happened sixteen years ago today?”

Tone - from The Secret Portal Part One (Maddie POV)

“Great,” Noelle said. “A rock. Discovery of the century.” She cupped her hands to her mouth. “Ladies and nonexistent gentlemen! Rose Hernandez found a rock!” “Don’t you hear it?” Rose asked. I wondered if Noelle’s tone bothered her.

Voice - from The Secret Portal Part One (Maddie POV)

I knew what the words meant, but logically they made no sense. “What does this mean?” I asked. “Son of a— how stupid are you?” Dr. Asghar exclaimed, throwing her hands in the air. “All I meant was—” “Carmen,” Dr. Moon said with a slight edge in his voice. Dr. Asghar took a step back, looking slightly hurt. Dr. Moon sighed, and said more softly this time, “I am sure Madison understands what’s going on here.” He turned me. “She just doesn’t want to admit it.”

The stewards of the old world are always keen to give you a glimpse of their might... According to legend, the ancients built specialized chambers to seal away false prophets.

The Arcane is waking up.

There are sacrifices she is willing to make

[starstruckodysseys]

never stop blowing up is so fun bc 99% of the time it’s near incomprehensible and high octane action and then every so often out of nowhere someone will make a character choice that sucker punches you in the gut. and then it’s back to the antics so fast you get whiplash

SAURON, LORD OF THE WEREWOLVES

[puppetmaster13u]

Prompt 185

No one could get into contact with Constantine. 

Now usually that wasn’t that big of a deal, the man constantly disappeared for a few days at a time doing something or other, but he’d been completely silent and unseen for months. Usually he’ll at least answer a call to tell them to fuck off or something. 

And they really need his expertise and are getting incredibly worried for their grumpy team member. Yes he’s an asshole, but he’s their asshole, y’know? And he has a habit of getting into Situations (sure he also usually gets out of them, but what if he didn’t this time?!) 

So they’re desperate. Kind of really desperate. Desperate enough to use the summoning sigil they found on his fridge. They’d checked it, multiple times, and it should summon the hellblazer. 

“You’re not Constantine.” . 

The white-haired teen in the circle yawned, stretching and blinking at them blandly with familiar blue eyes before sighing. “Actually I am,” he stuffed his hands into his hoodie as he looked down at the summoning circle. “Well, technically just one of the many Laughing Magicians currently in the Realms.” 

He gave a grin, looking more amused than annoyed. “Pretty much every one of us is in the Realms right now for family reunion lol. (Did he just say lol out loud??) So like, you’re gonna have to specify which of us you’re tryin’ to summon. Honestly perfect timing for me thanks, the fruitloop keeps flirting with John and it’s horrific so.” 

… That was probably their John, wasn’t it…
