This looks fun

Starting us off we have Xes

Xes is smart but also very stupid.

Yep, this metal head can learn how to traverse dimensions and can make computer systems that seem like utter witchcraft (which they kinda are) but can ze figure out where to put the gem with a gem shaped hole in front of them? Absolutely not, don’t be ridiculous

Xes had an emo phase.

Had? No no, they’re still in it, just look at there jet black hood, cloak and other garments

Xes is not allowed to drink energy drinks.

I know that ze’re an android and caffeine wouldn’t really work but fuck that, all I can imagine now is Xes vibrating aggressively and just darting around the town at breakneck speeds, maybe the caffeine overload broke some of their code that limited how fast they can go

Xes has one, very simple word that they cannot figure out how to pronounce.

Yeah definitely

Ok next, Rosie

Rosie can kill you in an instant, but wont.

Yeah probably, as I said in my documentation “She believes every problem can be solved by being peaceful and civil is always the best way of dealing with problems even if that problem is running at her with with a battle-axe in hand”

Rosie wears Hello Kitty socks

Yeah that fits

Rosie is awful with technology and doesn't know how to use a smart phone.

Well seeing as she lives in a dimension where they don’t exist that kinda makes sense

Rosie forgets to eat sometimes.

Yeah… she’ll remind others to eat but not herself

Moving on, The Observant

The Observant got hit by a bus once.

Yeah no, this motherfucker is constantly paying attention to anything and everything around them, if they did get hit, they would go flying sure but I think the bus would be damaged a lot

The Observant desperately needs a hug but doesn't know it and refuses to ask for one.

Yep, just yep

The Observant sucks at saying tongue twisters.

I just picture this incredibly formal being, perfectly composed saying every word perfectly and then just endlessly stumbling over their words trying to say it

The Observant is in your house.

Oh, that’s fun, time to go quiz the fuck out of them

And finally, Leander

Leander is tumblr famous.

Yeah, if this dork ever got access to tumblr I would not be surprised

Leander is a horrible liar.

Sort of, it depends, like sometimes he will be the smoothest liar on the planet other times you have to wonder if he’s trying to lie or if he’s trying to make it as obvious as possible

Leander always has a sword on them.

Ok but this is just straight up true

Leander killed Princess Diana.

As funny as that would be, I don’t think he would

And that’s kinda all of my OCs, I don’t have many because I kinda only made my first one by accident and then I gave that one a friend and then I made a story with those two and we need the other main ish characters and that’s where the other two showed up

I’ll tag people @thewritingdragonelf @phoenixradiant @ratedn

OC Headcannon tag!

Looks like everyone else is doing it, so I guess I'll jump on! Thanks @illarian-rambling, @theink-stainedfolk, @fortunatetragedy, @willtheweaver, @beloveddawn-blog and whoever else tagged me :)

Rules: use this headcanon generator to generate some headcanons for your OCs! How accurate are they?

Let's start with Luna!

Luna almost drank the lethal dosage of caffine once.

You know what, I believe that. She's got the self-control of a feral squirrel.

Luna has a mary sue oc.

If she has any, they would definitely all be Mary Sues :)

Luna is oblivous to any and all romantic interest someone may show them.

She might be aromantic, but she's not blind. She'd know. (And be deeply disgusted.)

Next up: Iraela :)

Iraela is pansexual.

Lmao no. She's the straightest straight to ever straight.

Iraela knows fnaf lore.

This does psychic damage upon reading, but I have to agree. In a world in which fnaf lore is available, she would definitely be a fan.

Iraela likes to sing at 4 in the morning. Their neighbors hate them.

Also absolutely true, if she had neighbours to annoy.

And to round them all up: Katherine! (Oh god I still haven't written the epilogue for apns)

Katherine has been to prison.

Depends on what you count as prison, I guess. She'd sure say her home was a prison.

Katherine does intricate and expensive cosplays.

Again, depends on what you count as cosplay. (Technically, she's been running around in the world's most intricate cosplay of a teenage girl, so...)

Katherine has one, very simple word that they cannot figure out how to pronounce.

Absolutely not. She's too pedantic to allow that to occur. She probably has like 5 dictionaries memorised just in case.

Tagging @drchenquill, @mundanemoongirl, @possiblylisle, @paeliae-occasionally and anyone else interested!

Now that’s the one I need

[thewritingaurora]

I wasn’t entirely sure what to do for today but here it is

Day 2

It’s character profiles of Xes and The Observant

Tags: @ratedn

[thewritingaurora]

Yeah I kinda forgot to post yesterdays thing, sorry

Day 1

It’s a scene from my current WIP

Tags: @ratedn

[thewritingaurora]

Thank you to @ratedn for the tag on this

[thewritingaurora]

Very much fun, thank you for the tag

Two androids with polar opposite personalities are working, one gets abducted to a different dimension, tries to get back home, <spoiler which I’m not going to say> and learns magic

There is more but that’s not planned just yet

@thewritingdragonelf @phoenixradiant

Uhhhh yeah I don’t know if any of my other friends have writing blogs

Writers, tell me about your story in the dumbest way possible

I’ll go first:

Superhero princesses save the world with the help of that one straight white guy who’s just happy to be here, couldn’t have done it without the fortune of a white woman defying all the odds by deciding against a gender reveal party

[thewritingaurora]

Sorry the first one is incorrect, it should be “Any sentence can and will be a paragraph”

Like I genuinely used to use more commas and words for joining two sentences together than every other special character, I mean like full stops, exclamation marks, question marks, quotation marks, brackets, the whole lot, and that’s not from lists and such, I just used a single full stop at the end of paragraphs and an ungodly amount of commas to cram everything in there, hell in this post I haven’t even used a full stop yet

I’m somewhat better now because I read stuff out loud if there is a suspicious lack of punctuation and to see when I need to take breaths

Disclaimer these are just a small sampling of some possible writer traits I’ve noticed either in myself or in fics I read. Also consider a rb for sample size !

[thewritingaurora]

Emotionless android gets dragged to fantasy world and learns magic and how to emotionally function

Hey writeblr! Here's a challenge: can you summarize what you're writing in one sentence?

[thewritingaurora]

Are you a writer who likes tag games?

I'm trying to be more active here and build a group of people that I can tag and get tagged in return.

Please interact with this post to get on my tag list and reblog to boost.
