Tenethia: I hereby call Writer's Group to order.
Tenethia: William, I believe you will be logging?
Tenethia: By default, it seems to go to you. *grins*
Sir-William: lol, ok
Tenethia: Wonderful, thank you
Tenethia: Alright, Ariel said she's running late.
Tenethia: Edward?
Ariel.of.Narnia: *rushes in*
Sir-Edward: Yes?
Tenethia: Aha! Hi, Ariel!
Ariel.of.Narnia: *pants* hi
Tenethia: I've not gotten a chance to read several weeks worth of your story -- will you send it to me, please, all of it, in an email?
Ariel.of.Narnia: O_O
Sir-William: By the way, Tenny, did you read any of my literature from the last to Writer's groups?
Tenethia: I've not been editing, because Nia has kindly volunteered to do that for me, so I'm running behind on reading smiley-razz
Sir-Edward: Right
Sir-William: lol
Ariel.of.Narnia: You could just read the sharing threads.
Tenethia: Um, sorrowfully, Will, no. I'll catch up on those in the forum threads
Tenethia: @Ariel -- I would, but I don't know where I left off
Gypsevedius: *wanderafies in*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Fiiiiine.
Sir-William: That's alright. Actually I only mentioned it to make up for the fact that I don't have anything to share this time
Sir-Edward: @Tenny: Done
Ariel.of.Narnia: Haha, neither do I unless I dig up something older
Sir-Edward: Me neither sadly, I've been a bit busy
Tenethia: Ok, then we're finished!
Tenethia: Will, send me the log!
Tenethia: Just kidding
Tenethia: This calls for drastic measures.
Tenethia: The kind of thing we have rarely done in times past.
Tenethia: It calls for the hardest type of challenge
Tenethia: The Write-a-whole-story-in-ten-minutes-unless-you're-Ariel challenge!
Sir-Edward: YES!! I love those!
Tenethia: MWAHAHAHAHA, I AM EVIL AND BAD AND NO GOOD AND ROTTEN TO THE CORE
Sir-William: LOLOL
Sir-Edward: LOLOLOLOL
Ariel.of.Narnia:*doesn't know whether to laugh or pretend to be offended*
gypsevedius: O.O
Sir-William: Haha
Ariel.of.Narnia: Do we have a prompt, Tenny?
Tenethia: Be offended
Tenethia:
Ariel.of.Narnia:*laughs*
Tenethia: It'll be funnier if you're offended
Tooky: How about write a grant in an hour?
Tenethia: Yes, you do
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Tooky: A grant?
gypsevedius: *hugtackles Ariel*
Sir-William: *is offended just for the fun of it )
Ariel.of.Narnia:*UFFLES*
gypsevedius: *hugtackles Tooky too!*
Tenethia: Yeah, Will!
Tenethia: *hugs Tooky*
gypsevedius: *hugtackles William too*
Tenethia: Let me grab the prompts
gypsevedius: *and hugtackles Ed also* and then RUNS THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.
Tooky: A grant
Tenethia: Ullysses Grant!
Tooky: I'm going up to a printing press for a week this summer and the school will consider giving me money to do so if I write a grant
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Tooky: Haha, oh I see.
Tenethia: Ooh
Tenethia: Alright, I need two courageous volunteers!
Sir-Edward: *raises hand*
Sir-Edward: (Why did I just do that?)
Tenethia: Wonderful! Aaand two other brave writerly volunteers?
Tenethia: Because you're among the bravest of them all, of course. Duh, why else?!
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Ed: no idea
Sir-Edward: (Don't do it!)
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Tenny: first you asked for two and now you ask for three?
Sir-Edward:(Run while you still have a chance!!)
Tenethia: No, I meant "either of you two other brave writerly volunteers"
gypsevedius: smiley-razz
Tenethia: smiley-razz
Sir-William: lol, good point. *raises hand*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Oh
Tooky: *Raises hand* I'll just try and get half a page done in the ten minutes?
Tenethia: Don't contradict me! I am the Tisroc of Writer's Group!
Sir-William: Haha
Tenethia: Heeheehee, and TOOKY!
Ariel.of.Narnia: *will contradict all she wants*
Sir-William: May You Live Forever!
Tenethia: Wonderful, Edward, Tooky, you can stand over here
Sir-Edward: *stands over there
Sir-William: *does too*
Tenethia: *stares solemnly at Tooky and Ed* are you ready to know what you just signed up for?
Sir-Edward: No
Sir-Edward: Please no
SehsisResdreamer: *appears*
Sir-William: lol
Sir-Edward: AH!
Ariel.of.Narnia: *snork*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Hi, Res!
Tenethia: You signed up to write a story... about how Ilgamuth of the Twisted Lip (from HHB) received his twisted lip.
SehsisResdreamer: Hulloo
Tenethia: Congratulations.
Tenethia: *grins at Seh*
SehsisResdreamer: Ahahah
Tenethia: You can join Tooky and Ed with that prompt if you want
Ariel.of.Narnia: *cackles* can't wait to see what they cook up
SehsisResdreamer: I don't really do fiction XD
Tenethia: Ditto
Tenethia: *turns to Ariel and William*
Tenethia: @Seh -- they will have ten minutes to write the fic
SehsisResdreamer: Ahaha
Sir-William: Oh dear, it may end up somewhat comical
gypsevedius: smiley-razz
Ariel.of.Narnia: Figures I'm paired against the guy who actually /can/ write a story in 10.
Tenethia: Ariel, William, are you ready to know what you are stuck with?
Ariel.of.Narnia: Uh-huh
Ariel.of.Narnia: *opens new Word doc*
Tenethia: *claps hands in glee*
Ariel.of.Narnia: That's always a bad sign.
gypsevedius: o.o
Sir-William: @Ariel, Lol
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Will: I love your teasing
Sir-William: lol
Tenethia: You get to write a story about a toaster, a guitar, and... umm... Jill Pole.
Sir-William: LOLOLOLOL
Ariel.of.Narnia: *blinks*
elanorelle: *wanders in*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Elanor!

gypsevedius: O.O Wooooooooooooah
gypsevedius: Ela! *hugtackles!*
Tenethia: They each have a story prompt, and they all have ten minutes to write the story
elanorelle: Hey all! Sure, I'd like to join.
Tenethia: If you want to join in one corner, I'll join the other
Tenethia: You pick your corner, then I'll tell you the prompt
Ariel.of.Narnia: *takes great offence, as her name means "lioness of God"*
gypsevedius: xD
elanorelle: smiley-razz
Tenethia: Oohshiny
Tenethia: So, Ela, what will it be? The few brave or the other corner?
elanorelle: Other corner.
Ariel.of.Narnia: Yays!
Tenethia: Wonderful. You'll be writing a story about Jill Pole, a toaster, and a guitar
Tenethia: And I shall be joining the brave few in writing a story about how Ilgamuth got his twisted lip
Tenethia: Is everyone present and ready to write? *waits for everyone to clock in before she says go"
Ariel.of.Narnia: (@Will: I've got Mission Impossible playing to inspire me smiley-wink )
elanorelle: *opens a new doc*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Yes, I'm ready
Sir-William: lol
gypsevedius: *can't wait to see how this turns out...*
Sir-William: I play the Piano Guys version of that song
Sir-William: *is ready*
Sir-Edward: Indeed
Ariel.of.Narnia: Hey, that's what I'm listening to! *high-fives*

Ariel.of.Narnia:... Will... go ahead.
Tenethia: *snickers*
gypsevedius: smiley-razz
Ariel.of.Narnia: smiley-lol
Tenethia: I think we'll go in alphabetical order...
Tenethia: Ariel, you first! ; )
Tooky: Did it!
Ariel.of.Narnia: Ahem, Tenny
Tenethia: Yay, Tooky!
Ariel.of.Narnia: I promise I'm almost done
Tenethia: *grins at Ariel innocently*
Tenethia: Ok
Tenethia: Who would like to share first then?
Sir-Edward: Then I'm next?
Tenethia: Sure, go ahead, Ed.
Tenethia: *grins*
Sir-Edward: Right then! *Ahem* what happened to Il- Lim- that guy
SIR-EDWARD SHARES ~
Sir-Edward: He fell into a spider-filled, stony cave full of water while battling a red dragon with a limp and a bad lisp while giant flies buzzed annoyingly around them and fought fiercely with fireflies that only appear on the fifth day of the fifth month in the fifth hour in springtime when a water lily in Narnia get's stepped on by a centaur running away from a swarm of bees with the intent of waking fireflies to battle normal flies to create an annoying buzzing sound that distracts a red dragon as he battles with a Calormene warrior that's plunging towards an under ground river that only floods twenty minutes before a Calormene warrior is intent upon slaying a dragon and riding it into the sky then clipping it's wings so that they plummet into the cave which ends inevitably with the dragon getting slain and the Calormene getting his lip twisted long after the battle when he trips on a log in the middle of a forest.
Tenethia: SNORK
Tenethia: *rocks with laughter*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Heee
Sir-William: LOL
Sir-Edward: smiley-lol
Sir-William: I like it!
Sir-Edward: smiley-razz
Sir-William: Which is unusual
elanorelle: smiley
Tenethia: I love how instead of a battle in ended up being... a tree
Tenethia: It ended up*
Sir-Edward: smiley-razz
gypsevedius: o.o Woah.
Tenethia: Since we're doing this largely unedited and jokingly, I'm not going for comments, so if anyone has one, they need to say it quickly
Tenethia: Ela, would you like to go next?
Ariel.of.Narnia: Hang on
Sir-William: *raises hand*
Ariel.of.Narnia: brb
Tooky: For the record, I doubt anyone actually wants to read my grant
Tenethia: smiley-razz
Tenethia: I wanna read it, Tooky, because I have no idea what it is!
Sir-Edward: Same here
Sir-William: Yeh
Tenethia: Will wants to go next?
elanorelle: Tooky can go first.
Sir-William: Curiosity killed the cat
Sir-William: In a good way
Sir-William: *wants to share*
Sir-Edward: I'm not dead yet so that disproves it.
Tenethia: Tooky? Will? fight it out, you two!
Tooky: I kinda do want opinions on it, but it has too much personal info in it
Ariel.of.Narnia: Ah...
Tenethia: Ok
Tooky: So Will
Tenethia: *nods*
Tooky: brb
Sir-William: You could share your story to us in a group hangout
Sir-William: We did that once
Sir-William: Tenny hosted it, and then we all joined *shrugs*
Tenethia: Tooky doesn't share her personal information with anyone. Not even Tenny
Sir-William: LOLOL
Tenethia: I did?
Tenethia: Oh.
Tenethia: *pokes William to share*
gypsevedius: *runs back in* Did I miss anything?!
Tenethia: Nope
Sir-William: A little
Ed wrote a really funny oneSIR-WILLIAM SHARES ~
Sir-William: The toaster was forbidding! One might even say threatening! Definitely highly dangerous! Why? Because it was big and alive and larger than a girl named Jill Pole! Now this was not because Jill Pole was in any way smaller than the toaster, but simply because the toaster was larger than Jill. Normally such a circumstance would be very surprising, but the forbidding, threatening, and dangerous part came from the aforementioned alive part of the toaster. It puffed black fumes from the two, wide slits in its top and came towards Jill! What was she to do? Perhaps she could out run it! She ran along the granite path she was on at an incredible speed, not daring to look back! But the shaking of the ground was getting louder behind her! But then all was a beautiful melody that hung in the very air itself. The sound of a guitar gently playing a rolling tune came to her ears. All other sounds stopped except for the birds in the treetops, and Jill looked around her to see where the music was coming from. Eustace sat on a park bench nearby, his eyes closed, plucking the guitar strings. Jill was secretly impressed that his music had so calmed the toaster behind her, but she did not let it show in her face. At length Eustace stopped playing and looked up. He smiled at Jill and said, "I know I'm not supposed to be in this story, Jill, but somebody had to play the guitar."
Sir-William: The end
Ariel.of.Narnia: Hahahaha!
Tenethia: *snork*
Sir-Edward: LOL
Tenethia: Bwahahahahahahahahahaha
Sir-William: lol
Tenethia: I always love reading these ten-minute things
Sir-William: Me too
Tenethia: Alright, Ela? You're up!
elanorelle: Gah, okay.
ELANORELLE SHARES ~
elanorelle: "This is for you, my favorite granddaughter,” he placed a case on the breakfast table and opened it for her to see.
“A guitar?” the girl took the instrument from the case. “Thank you, Grandpa. But I don't know how to play one of these.”
“Oh, you don't?”
She shook her head but gave the old man a smile. “It is lovely to look at. I shall put it in my room as decoration until I learn to play. It would go well there, don't you think?” She got up and went to the toaster before the contents could fly out and land on the counter.
“You know, my dear, I haven't told you this yet, but you seem different. Has something happened since I last visited?”
She set the toast along with butter and jam in front of him. “Yes, but no one would believe me if I told them.”
“You haven't told me yet,” he said and his eyes twinkled.
gypsevedius: (That is HILARIOUS, William, btw)
Sir-William: Thanks
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Elanor: :O
Ariel.of.Narnia: I love it!
Ariel.of.Narnia: post on FF? Please?
Tenethia: Ela somehow manages to casually throw a toaster and a guitar into a story about Jill
Ariel.of.Narnia: I love her grandpa!
elanorelle: @Ariel: Thanks!
Tenethia: *approves of this very strongly*
elanorelle: Maybe I can make it longer. Haha
Sir-Edward: Indeed! smiley-lol
Sir-William: *gives it an A+*
Ariel.of.Narnia: @Elanor: that'd be nice.
Tenethia: I wonder if her grandpa has ever been somewhere else...
Tenethia: *thinks Elanor definitely should!*
gypsevedius: That was AMAZING, Ela!
Sir-William: @Tenny
Ariel.of.Narnia: (grandpa "Pole" is actually Diggs)
Tenethia: smiley-razz
elanorelle: smiley-razz
Tenethia: ... that would be interesting
elanorelle: Indeed!
Sir-William: Hehe
Tenethia: But I'm pretty sure he never married
Sir-William: lol
Tenethia: Ariel? you're in line.
Ariel.of.Narnia: smiley
Ariel.of.Narnia: Okay
Sir-Edward: Unless you're still writing
Sir-William: She might need more time, you know
Sir-William: Maybe, oh say...an hour?
Ariel.of.Narnia: *snickers*
Ariel.of.Narnia: I'm actually done this time
Tenethia: Or two, ya know
Tenethia: Three cheers for Ariel!
gypsevedius: lol!
Tenethia: Hip hip hooray!
Sir-William: Yay!
Ariel.of.Narnia: smiley-lol
ARIEL.OF.NARNIA SHARES ~
Ariel.of.Narnia: Jill Pole simply wouldn’t stop laughing.
Ariel.of.Narnia: “It’s not funny!” Eustace proebsed.
Ariel.of.Narnia: “Oh, it is too!” Jill gasped past her giggles.
Ariel.of.Narnia: “Come off it, Pole.”
Ariel.of.Narnia: Jill’s laughter slowed some, but Eustace still felt wounded. Just a tiny bit. She set her fingers over the strings of the guitar and strummed. She opened her mouth to sing, but only more giggles proceeded out. She ran through the chords again until she was finally able to sing, “There once was a little boy named Eustace Clarence Scrubb, who tried to make breakfast but –” She broke off giggling again.
“Well,” Eustace said, hoping desperately that his ears weren’t too red, “I bet I could do that.” He nodded at her guitar.
Jill stopped – chords, laughter, everything. She cocked her head to one side. “Oh, really?” She jumped up. “Then give it a try while I toast the bread.”
Eustace felt a little flutter of anxiety inside, but he raised his head and squared his shoulders. “Very well. I jolly well /shall/.” He was quite sure that Jill snickered at him the moment he sat down on the chair she had vacated, but he couldn’t quite tell as she was too occupied with removing his charred toast from the toaster and setting new slices of bread in its place. He cleared his throat and tried to remember where Jill had set her fingers. He settled on a position the moment before she turned to check on him. He ran his thumb down the strings. Hard.
Jill turned away again in an attempt to hide a grin, leaving Eustace to slap his hand over the strings of the guitar to stop the awful sound from further permeating his burning ears. “Uh, right,” he muttered, trying to cover himself. His fingers shook while deciding on a new position. He strummed again, much less forcefully this time, and found to his surprise that it sounded… well, not /right/, but perhaps a little more musical? Eustace looked up to see that Jill had somehow – one might venture to say “magically”? – set the two golden-brown slices of toast onto two plates and slather them with a generous layer of blackberry jam, before turning to grin at him again. She set the plates on the table and then nudged one of his fingers one string down. “How about I teach you?”
Ariel.of.Narnia: The end
Tenethia: *grins* That's adoooooooorable
elanorelle: *agrees*
gypsevedius: o.o That is so good.
Tenethia: I like stories that further explore a friendship between Eustace and Jill after SC
elanorelle: How does one manage to write that much in so short a time as 10 minutes? O.O
Ariel.of.Narnia: (Elanor: obviously, this is some time after Jill received that guitar from her grandpa)
Ariel.of.Narnia: Uh...
Tenethia: One simply does.
Tenethia: *giggles*
Ariel.of.Narnia: I... didn't write that in 10
Sir-William: Well I think Eustace could do it as long as it doesn't use the dreaded F chord
Tenethia: She cheated.
Sir-William: lol
Tenethia: We always let Ariel share near the last.
Ariel.of.Narnia: I'm notorious for never managing these short deadlines
Tenethia: It's charitable *grins*
Ariel.of.Narnia: smiley
Tenethia: Yup.
elanorelle: smiley
Tenethia: Sorry, Ariel, I know I'm giving you a hard time
Tenethia: Alright, I guess I'm last to share then.
Ariel.of.Narnia: lol, it's okay. I think it's funny
Tenethia:... eep
gypsevedius: smiley-razz
Sir-William: The real question is, of course, what did toasters look like back in the 1940's?
TISROC OF WRITER'S GROUP (Tenethia) SHARES ~
Tenethia: The dust rose, enveloping the horse and rider. Down the hill and across the open field the Tarkaan Ilgamuth rode, his weapon drawn and his visor down. He could see the opposing army sweeping towards them, and brushed off the last of his fear. This was battle. This was thrill.
Ariel.of.Narnia: (@ Will: I know what they looked like in the '30s)
Tenethia: Then, scimitars clashed together, and around the Tarkaan, men began to fall from their mounts. Ilgamuth swung his scimitar around, slashing well-timed, deadly cuts at his opponent. He fought in a silence that spoke of more fury than the shouts of the soldiers about him.
A spear was thrust at him. He ducked, and as he did, the weight of his amour overpowered him. He fell from his horse, grunting as he hit the ground. His opponent rode up beside him, and grasping at his own spear, thrust it downward in an attempt to finish Ilgamuth. Ilgamuth rolled to the side, out of the spear's path, and as the spear fell again in a second strike, Ilgamuth grabbed it, yanking it downward and off past his side. His opponent, already going forward with the weight of the spear, was pulled from his horse.
Tenethia: The end!
Ariel.of.Narnia: But where does his lip twist?
Ariel.of.Narnia: Nicely done, though!
Tenethia: After that part
Tenethia: Well, thanks
Ariel.of.Narnia: The action was easy to follow
Tenethia: Alright, I think we have time for one more round.
Tenethia: If you didn't finish your story, keep writing. If you did, you can switch prompts with the other team now
elanorelle: I actually have to go eat now.
Tenethia: Nice
Tenethia: Aww, ok
gypsevedius: Bye, Ela! *hugs!*
Ariel.of.Narnia: *waves at Elanor*

Tenethia: *is playing with her guitar right now*
Sir-Edward: *waves*
Sir-William: lol
Ariel.of.Narnia: *needs to think of how Ilgamuth's lip would twist*
Tenethia: It can just /look/ twisted.
Ariel.of.Narnia: Well, yes. but gotta think of how it's gonna get there.
Tenethia: I mean, a bad cut on his lip that scarred could look a lot like a twist.
Ariel.of.Narnia: Yes... just how to give him that cut.
Tenethia: *grins and nods*
Ariel.of.Narnia: Okaaaay
Sir-William: So what are we writing about?
Ariel.of.Narnia: Yup. now I know what I'm doing.
Ariel.of.Narnia: Ilgamuth and his twisted lip

Tenethia: All right
Tenethia: Will, go ahead

Tenethia: Ok, so Will, then Ed, then Ariel
Sir-William: Sure
SIR-WILLIAM SHARES ~
Sir-William: Ilgamuth's lip was twisted in contempt.
Ilgamuth's lip was twisted due to scar tissue.
Ilgamuth's lip was only twisted if you looked at it in the right light.
Ilgamuth's lip was twisted badly, but he had forgotten about it long ago.
Ilgamuth's lip got that way because he twisted it too many times, and one day it stuck that way.
Ilgamuth's lip is not a subject I wish to dwell on.
Ilgamuth's lip has been twisted for a long time.
Ilgamuth's lip is twisted. Does that really matter?
Ilgamuth's lip was twisted, but I don't know how.
Ilgamuth's lip has been twisted a dozen different times.
Ilgamuth's lip is twisted only because he is contemptuous 24 /7.
Ilgamuth's lip is only twisted because he forgot to untwist it.
Ilgamuth's lip needs some help.
Ilgamuth's lip is twisted? Who's Ilgamuth?
Ariel.of.Narnia: Hahaha
Sir-William: The end. Some story, eh?
gypsevedius: Lol!
Ariel.of.Narnia: It's funny!
Sir-William: Your Ed
Sir-William: +s
gypsevedius: lol!
Sir-Edward: It goes something like this
Sir-Edward: Once upon a time there was a toaster, a girl named Jill, a guitar, and a writer that had used up all his inspiration on the last writing conebs.
Sir-Edward: The end
gypsevedius: XD
Ariel.of.Narnia: *snerk*

ARIEL.OF.NARNIA SHARES ~
“He looks hideous!” a young Tarkheena garbed in pink whispered.
“He must have received it in battle against the Telmarines,” said another who smelled of jasmine.
“Oh, don’t be silly, Phoebi! He’s had that scar since before the Telmarines – why when we were but children, he bore it. But still, does it not make him appear vicious?”
“Indeed, Naleen. Like a tiger trapped by the hunters.”
“Oh hush, both of you,” Bellisi snapped.
“But Bellisi!” Naleen gasped. “How could one love a face like that?”
“How is one to kiss such a lip?” Phoebi added.
“He is honorable.” Bellisi turned away, prim nose high, white skirts flowing after her like a river.
“But Bellisi!” Naleen breathed again, abandoning her post behind the trellis to catch her hand.
Bellisi turned on her, looking for all the world like a vengeful goddess. “Foolish girl!” she spat. “You think an unseemly scar is the definition of a man? Have not the poets said that he wears a scar with pride is the kingliest of victors? Pah! He has paid a price far greater than your eyes can see!” She spun away again, but then stopped short. “Mother and Father never speak of it, but you were too young to remember our brother.”
Naleen and Phoebi looked at each other in bewilderment.
“He tried. Tried to calm the horse. Tried to catch him when he fell. They… they were like brothers.” Her voice dropped and came softer than water lilies. “Hath not the poet said that no love is like that of brothers and no love greater than his who would give his life for another?” Bellisi turned to face her sisters, tears in her eyes. “Ilgamuth tried and I’ll never forget it.”
