    Writing Ideas for cool superpowers?

    Some fun ones: Being able to reach through screens/pictures to take out whatever is there, like grabbing food from a restaurant ad. At the high end, maybe the person could pull out allies from games, movies, etc. Being able to 'scoop' chunks out of anything. Like casually reaching out to a...

    What is your favorite method to get inspiration or motivation ?

    One way I get inspiration is from rewriting snippets of stories I find interesting to see how they work. Something about that gets the creative juices flowing for me since I get curious to see if I could replicate the effect, or at least try mimicking it. That usually gets the ball rolling...

    Competetive exam advice .What actually got you a productive consistent schedule to prepare for competitive exams

    For chemistry... I don't remember having to memorize that much? I suppose it depends on how you're tested though. If the test is MC, I'd go look up to see if there were Quizlets on the topics or make my own and just drill those. If the test is free response, practice tests are the way to go...

    Whats your current excuse for procrastinating?

    I procrastinate because writing a story is a lot more fun than writing a case brief.

    The Metus Contest

    Well, I've been on a Yakuza trip since I got spammed with Baka Mitai, so I might as well cobble something in my spare time. Curious to see how things turn out for this contest.

    Reiterating what others have said, Apocalypse and end of the world sounds like a fun theme.

    I tried it once, but I don't play MOBAs anymore. Not enough complete time blocks on hand to play and not get banned from having to disconnect mid-game. ? The name's a complete coincidence though and not intended to reference the game. I actually forgot about it until now.

    Descriptive Writing And Style.

    Well, as GDLiZy said, style comes with practice. Mostly familiarity with writing. In terms of being more descriptive though, there's a few ways to go about it. The simplest, albeit most tedious, way would be to find a book you like with good description and try to pick it apart. Copy it...

    Resolved Broken emotes menu in story comment sections

    I'm not sure if it's just me, but when I go to use emotes in the comments the menu looks like this: Is it just on my side or a site-wide issue?

    Scribbly Short Story Competition!

    Almost forgot about this! Luckily I still managed to get it done. Not too long, only 2215 words according to MSWord, but I think it concludes well? Seeing the picture gave me a whole 'almighty being condemnation' vibe, so before I knew it I was writing a sci-fyish story about humanity going too...

    Favorite game

    I always find myself going back to play Dragon Warrior Monsters and Dragon Warrior 3 on the gbc every once in a while. If not that, then usually the Lufia series. I *want* to replay persona 3 but that game is such a time sink that I never manage to get around to it.

    Final fantasy

    VI is definitely up there on my list of favorites, but I'm more fond of X. It was the first game I got for the PS2 and I remember just being blown away by the intro sequence. It's also because of that I'm probably going to buy it for the 3rd time on my switch, haha. I personally like the...

    What genres/tags do you read?

    I usually look for "Second Chance" and any 'Another World' tags, but most of the time I'll pick a story at random from the top rankings to see why people rate it so highly.
