#it's a fun chill space

[sentfromwolves]

Hey furriends! ( •̀ ω •́ )y Are you a writer, an artist, maybe even both? Do you dabble in other crafts, or are you just interested in meeting other creators of all sorts? Maybe even playing games, or running your ocs through hunger game sims with others for kicks? If so, consider joining CLAWMARK!

This server is an 18+ creative crossroads discord server for creators of all kinds to get together and have fun chatting all things craft, characters, worldbuilding, plot suffering, yarn tangling, you name it! We're a chill space for creators to meet new friends and have a place to talk about their projects, but also just have fun together and have a safe haven to vibe in.

◈—« SOME QUICK HOUSEKEEPING »

◆ — This discord is 18+ only! You will be removed if you are found to be a minor. Please respect this rule, and do not join if you are not 18+. ◆ — All creators of all skill levels are welcome! While we are primarily writer-focused, this server is specifically for tons of different creators to get together and talk about their original works and also hang out. ◆ — All activity levels are welcome! We'll do semi-regular activity checks just to make sure the server is still serving people who are actively interested in being there, but even if you're only able to pop in once in awhile, that's totally fine!

Please note that this is a pretty experimental server, with the hopes of growing and refining the space as time goes on. While I'm not planning on making it events-focused, I'm not opposed to running events either if we gain enough members to warrant it!

If all of this sounds good to you,✨ feel free to follow this link to join! ✨(๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ We look forward to having you!

I love the comic book writing sensibility that Frequency has, like how Three and Five's ending is great for the story being told but if it were a published comic it would still leave them on the table for if a future writer wanted to use them.

whats funny is that despite doing my best to keep in line with dc comics/comic writing sensibilities throughout the fic (staying as comics-accurate as possible in terms of continuity/tone/characterization/story elements etc) that particular comic writing reality was one that was like. kind of a genuine anxiety that i didn't know i had until i started writing this thing.

ive said before that in the original concept for Frequency all of the clones (besides Thad) were going to end up dead. whether it was via killing each other or unintentionally being the instrument of their own demise (disney villain style). obviously it changed because creating an entire narrative about this one character's redemption arc and then not allowing any of the other villains to have a shot at redemption felt hypocritical and like. mean. not to mention antithetical to the whole ethos of the story.

but the reason why killing off all the other clones was my first instinct is partially because i had this kinda subconscious recoil to the idea that any of them would actually continue on after the story was over.

like, because i was trying to stick to canon so much, while figuring out the story a thought came up a couple times that basically went like, "okay, well, if this was a real comic, then...". and inevitably i had a realization that if this WAS a real comic, my original clone characters would be canonized, and therefore available to any future writer who wanted to yank them out of their respective endgames and inject them into other stories. which i Did Not Like the Idea Of.

classic "making up a guy to get mad at" except it was more "making up a reality to get anxious about". because obviously no matter how much it sticks to canon, Frequency still exists in a fan-created space.

but! i'd never made up original characters to put in my own fanmade stuff before and was definitely feeling protective. because all those original clones i made had yknow: a story purpose and narrative function to facilitate the actual key characters, Thad and Bart. the idea of them being removed from that context in any capacity, even if it was in the hands of a good writer, made me have this gut "no STOP you're ruining it!!!!" reaction.

they were all made for Frequency, and to foil Thad as a character, i didnt like the idea of Three being brought back as a one-note villain or Jude and Nathaniel getting folded into the wider Flash cast of allies. and none of them were made to be main character material. plus the character roster at DC is already uhh Extremely Stacked i genuinely did not want the takeaway to be "and here's the nEW ADDITIONS TO THE FLASH FAMILY!" because that wasnt the intention

anyway i got over it lol. i still did my best not to leave any loose ends, and have each ending be wholly satisfying on its own, and ideally the oc clones basically continue on offscreen while the true adventures are based around Thad and Bart. but yeah it felt right to leave off on that note (and served the story much better than killing everybody off)

fascinating dream. bunch of mutuals hanging out (identities unclear). I asked a question about some role of emotion in ethics or something like that. nobody answered. after some time I complained about nobody answering my questions.

exasperated, @triviallytrue stands up and very dramatically says, "the way that [thing] acts on [other thing] is as —" pulling out some fucking katana and slicing the hair on top of my head, "the way sword acts on pate"

I then chase them angrily ranting about how if you must make a demonstration on my hair, the least you can do is cut it evenly. woke up before I could catch em

I gotta listen to P Funk more. every time I put on one of their songs the funk makes me smile happily joyfully and even giggle a bit and appreciate the beautiful days ahead of me

I was trying to find a way for Hunter to take his shirt off in a way that felt natural during a scene I’m writing and my partner suggested that Hunter could be that guy that just gets really hot and takes his shirt off randomly and now I can’t stop picturing Hunter mid conversation taking his shirt off and everyone being like 👁️👁️ and then carrying on like he isn’t nips out

victorian style haunted house that has dysphoria about not being an open concept minimalist hellhole, before we even have those, so it doesnt know why it just feels sooo miserable and has to lash out at everyone inside it, so its wretched and haunted the whole time, until its finally bought by a house flipper in the 2020s who knows JUST how to fix it

was fishing on the pier in the forest and Leah (who i hadn't talked to yet, i'm replaying and have to talk to everyone) walked up right next to me and started sketching lmao. i know that's just her schedule, but it was nice and friendly in a way. she ended up watching me for a little longer before heading home at night. the bestiesssssssss.
