Yoo! I finally wrote the first two chapters of my original series, and more is on the way! Give it a read and, you know, if it interests you, you should probably stay updated on it.
So…Lab Rats Question. If the rats were supposed to be kept completely secret in the first three seasons…then why did they never wear masks?
Like deadass, they didn’t even wear anything to hide their identities, AND they were leaving personal items all over the place (literally midway through an episode where Chase smacked Adam’s phone out of his hands in a warehouse and they just left it there).
Elimoon is going to have a respectful breakup where they realize they are not each other’s true loves and are much better as friends, remaining close even though it’s platonic love they share instead of romantic.
Yasmetri is going to crash and burn, setting fire to several city blocks in the process, resulting in beef that lasts for YEARS before one of them decides to at least try and make amends (probably Demetri, but you’ll be damned if you think he’s not gonna be as annoying as possible about it).
Reblogging to save
This one's for the scenes with multiple characters, and you're not sure how to keep everyone involved.
Writing group scenes is chaos. Someone’s talking, someone’s interrupting, someone’s zoning out thinking about breadsticks. And if you’re not careful, half your cast fades into the background like NPCs in a video game. I used to struggle with this so much—my characters would just exist in the scene without actually affecting it. But here’s what I've learned and have started implementing:
Not their literal job—like, not everyone needs to be solving a crime or casting spells. I mean: Why are they in this moment? What’s their role in the conversation?
My favourite examples are:
The Driver: Moves the convo forward. They have an agenda, they’re pushing the action.
The Instigator: Pokes the bear. Asks the messy questions. Stirring the pot like a chef on a mission.
The Voice of Reason: "Guys, maybe we don’t commit arson today?"
The Distracted One: Completely in their own world. Tuning out, doodling on a napkin, thinking about their ex.
The Observer: Not saying much, but noticing everything. (Quiet characters still have presence!)
The Wild Card: Who knows what they’ll do? Certainly not them. Probably about to make things worse.
If a character has no function, they’ll disappear. Give them something—even if it’s just a side comment, a reaction, or stealing fries off someone’s plate. Keep them interesting, and your readers will stay interested too.
Demetri: Hey, Eli, I-woah, where's your mohawk? Eli, completely mohawkless: I think I'm retire the Hawk for a couple...years. Demetri: Why? Did something happen? Eli:...well-
Five hours ago
Hawk, talking to Anthony: And that's how I became the Hawk.
Anthony, who's been mischievously snickering for the past two minutes: Hawk? As in-
Now
Demetri: Is that why Anthony's been dying laughing for the last few hours? Eli: Yeah...you know what, make it a couple decades.
What the FUCK
‘A doctor was forced by the IDF to strip naked and stay naked and urinate and defecate on the floor underneath him. After 2 days in this state he was allowed to treat the patients in the hospital he had refused to leave. While still naked. The patients were children’
Israeli soldiers are rapists and paedophiles. These rapists and paedophiles are supplied by the United States.
Just thought about this again, it’s giving:
Tory: Did you know you talk in your sleep? Tell me, though, who’s this ex you speak?
Miguel: Her name’s Sam.
Tory:….anyways, I’ve got all you could want here, all you could need here, just you and me, my dear, my love for life-
Miguel: My girlfriend broke up with me because I accidentally hit her while I was drunk, and I’m trying everything to get back with her, and I absolutely am still in love with her, and 100% not over her at all.
Tory: I want that one.

Let It Go | If Hawk sang “Let it Go” from Frozen
[Verse 1]
The sun shines bright on the skyline tonight
Not a shimmer to be seen
The peace that I once knew of
Now a distant memory
These demons haunt me through the day and through the night
Thing is only few truly know my strife
[Pre-Chorus]
Eli, calm down, don’t go lash out
You’ll survive if you keep your head down
Stay silent, just go with the flow
Well I say no!
[Chorus]
Let it Go!
Let it Go!
Won’t hold it back anymore!
Let it Go!
Let it Go!
I’m breaking down these doors!
I’ll take the mold!
And control my fate!
Let the winds rage on!
This bird’s grown wings and it’s out it’s cage
[Verse 2]
It’s funny how this passion
Grows every time I fall
The ones that once tortured me
Can’t handle me at all!
[Pre-Chorus]
I won’t keep down this burning flame
These weakling all will feel my pain
I’ll train and train until I bleed
They’ll see!
[Chorus]
Let it Go!
Let it Go!
My suffering’s come to an end
Let it Go!
Let it Go!
I’ll never fall again!
Here I stand!
And Here I’ll Stay!
Let the winds rage on…
[Bridge]
My passion burns and blazes all throughout this town
I’ll take over this game and nothing’s gonna keep me down
My fists ache waiting to go and kick some ass
I won’t be weak again, the past is in the past!
[Chous]
Let it Go!
Let it Go!
My wrath lights up the night!
Let it Go!
Let it Go!
You’ll never see me cry!
I’ve changed my mind!
This is my fate!
Let the winds rage on!
This bird’s grown wings and it’s out its cage
