Hey guys! Sorry its been so inactive around here. I’m slowly but surely getting finished with my finals.
Anyway, I found this and thought I had to share. The way body language can tell how a person is really feeling is something that I consider very interesting. I think it would be a great way to show, in a subtle way, how a character is really feeing.
Hope its useful! And good luck with finals! Hopefully, this place will be a bit more active once summer kicks in.

THIS IS FREAKING AWESOME

omg yes

I just found this and thought I might share it with any writing types that happen to be following me! Body language is still a rough spot for me, but I’ve been looking at references like this to improve. Cheat sheets like this can be extremely helpful, never be afraid to use them!

Rewind Please Ch 9 - Homestuck

Chapters: 1234567, 8

((A/N: I’m sorry that this took so long to get out, I had some trouble writing it. Beta’d once again by Nadiya!))

Alternia has always been a planet for the children of the Troll race. Our ruler, Her Imperial Condescension, makes sure of that. It’s a measure to prevent uprisings, I guess. It sooths the well-known and very seldom discussed fear she has. Some of the more daring say that it’s related to my ancestor and the huge rebellion he caused, but they’re usually the ones that get browbeaten into submission long before they reach eight and a half sweeps.

This Isn’t a Life - Homestuck

((A/N: This is in the same world as Doomed. It’s unbeta’d so if you catch any mistakes feel free to message me!))

Tell me now, what kind of life is this? I’m hiding in my own body, disguised as someone that I used to be but never actually became. This isn’t my place, I don’t belong here in the hallways of this school. I belong with the trolls, with my Daves, with my Rose, slumped against the wall with blood rushing out of my gashes. At the very least I belong with my Jade, crushed by a car that just couldn’t stop in time. Instead I’m playing a game that is so much harder than Sburb was.

I’m still alive!

I’m so sorry, I’ve just gone missing haven’t I? I’ve been dealing with school, life, and some writer’s block that has been fading in and out. The next chapter for Rewind Please is in progress now and I’ve got some rp-based shorts that I might as well post here too. I’m going to try to be a lot more active from here on out. There’s also plenty of plot bunnies floating around, so there might be a few of those if I let myself write them out.

Also, I’d like to give a big “HELLO” to all of my new followers! There’s almost ten of you now and that’s amazing to me. I might do a request for the tenth follower and that’s only one follower away, so there’s also that!

Doomed - Homestuck

((A/N: This is based on an msparp roleplay. Beta’d by Nadiya.))

Dave, you don’t understand how this feels. I’m sorry, but you don’t and you won’t. Nobody will anymore, nobody except for Jade. Hey, I bet you didn’t know that Jade’s my sister. Rose is yours, so you better be nice to her. She cares about us all, even if she shows it weirdly. At one point, she was willing to lay down her life to save all of ours. Your bro did that too, he got himself a sword through the chest just to protect Davesprite. After all, any version of you is you.

I Think That the World Just Ended - Ch 3

Chapters: 1, 2

((A/N: The details of the mutation can be pretty nasty, there’s a lot of pain involved. I’ll try not to be too graphic, but if you have issues with reading that sort of thing please proceed with caution. This applies to all future chapters, it’s going to get worse before it gets better. Beta’d by Daniel.))

“Karkat?”

The familiar voice comes to you through a haze, as if it’s just a whisper. You feel a hand on your shoulder, and more voices, but you just groan and roll over. Another voice adds to the whispers, grumbling displeasure from a million miles away. Finally a sharp bolt of pain pulls you out of your haze. Your eyes fly open to faces hovering over you and whispering mouths fluttering away. It looks as though Sollux just slapped you and Dave is trying to tell you something.

Rewind Please Ch 8 - Homestuck

Chapters: 123456, 7

((A/N: I’m sorry about the wait! Suddenly life happened… I hope that this short little chapter can tide you over until I can have the next one up!))

“What?”

The very Strider-esque person (young man, for lack of better words) who is staring you down repeats himself again. Not a Strider, he’s not a Strider, but he looks so much like Dave that you can’t push the similarity out of your mind.

“Forget me much?” he mutters with a dry laugh after a moment of silence.

Into the wall.

“Hopefully now you realize exactly what position you’re in,” he mutters, reloading his gun. “In general, people don’t consider you humans anymore.”

URL change: thecolorofstars

I’m changing the URL of this blog to “thecolorofstars” so that it will match my deviantART and Ao3. The current url (fatedglissando) was made to match some accounts that I’ve since closed due to inactivity. Trying to reach me at “fatedglissando” will redirect you to a very old blog of mine that is no longer active. I’m sorry for any inconvenience.
