I don't really know what to say to that.. But an experience like that must have had an impact on your view of both IRL situations and fictional stories like this.
Yeah, as a kid it was rough, but I would honestly say I'd do it all over again.
That's great. I think I'll be reading Circuits with new eyes now..
I had a really lame revelation written, but I deleted it thanks to your comment about really looking forward to it. Thank you for making me a better writer.
Dang, this feels like a new, edgy feel to the online world we came to know so well in the last book. And that paragraph I bolded. . . that kinda hit home with me. xP
Forget everything you ever knew about the old game.
“Whatever.” I said, pulling the door further open and disappearing inside. “I’m well ahead of schedule, so you might as well take a peek.”
He quickly hopped inside, shutting the door behind him. He slunk behind me, kind of sidling along. I grabbed the hammer-pick he had requested. It was a duel-sided club, with one end of the head for crushing, the other a spike. In the right hands, it’d be a fearsome weapon indeed. I turned around, bringing it out into the light.
He skittered over for a good look. “Oooh, yes, yes…very nice.”
I nodded. “I’ll have it done for sure by the date agreed on. If it gets done earlier, I’ll contact you.”
His head bobbed up and down. “Good, good. Yes, it looks like you’re almost done.”
“Not even close.” I said. “The detail work isn’t even begun.”
“Detail work?”
“How high tier the weapon depends on the craftsmanship inputted. You requested a five.” I did a quick check. “It’s a two right now.”
“Oh, well…it’s going to be very pretty, isn’t it?” He rubbed his hands together.
I shrugged. “If you think weapons are pretty.” I motioned to the door. “Lock that on your way out. I won’t be emerging.”
He took the hint, and backed away. “Oh, gladly.” He kind of bowed his way out, very carefully closing the door after himself.
With a bit of frustrated sigh, I turned back to the hammer-pick. I grabbed my tool bag, and then headed for the lamp. I’d need my best lighting for this part.
I rate this story 10/10 before even reading all of it.
No yea, it's bc those kiddos need a safe place that I think it's a really cool idea. One good family will change their lives forever. Oh that's nice, that they got to grow up with a stable, and good environment. ^v^
Eh, the problem was that it was only temporary. And there were visits and stuff during all that time, so it wasn't all that stable. We did the best we could though.
Oh.... :/ I'm sure it did help a little at least. Often even the tiniest things can change a life forever. I know that by experience. ^v^
