This was a hard one. I've got one character that is really only presented abstractly, having no lines at all, but still communicates with the MC indirectly. Extremely critical to the events leading up to the plot but essentially absent.

That would be a crazy world to live in, just knowing people all around you know the world from a much different perspective.

#WIPSnips Shirt. Our hero is taken by surprise when he comes face to face with a descendant of his creator.

Damion had prepared me to encounter dwarves here in Dessara, but not one who belonged to the bloodline directly responsible for my creation. Foremarch was as I expected, not one to have a long, proud beard like other dwarves. His was more of an elegant goatee, rigorously maintained, not a single black hair longer than it needed to be. The hair trailing down his back would be the envy of many a noble, chic, flowing, with two thick braids on either side of his head. Over an expertly crafted and fitted chainmail shirt, his attire was an elegant leather vest, embroidered in a fine golden thread. Strapped to his back was a battle-worn tabar, still fresh with the combat coating from days before

When I'd get an email notification about an update, I'd do a keyword search for "unfortunately", or "pass", or "best of luck", rather than just open the email and face the music.

#WIPSnips No burger, going with the vibes. Bedlam the minotaur does *not* like to be interrupted while consuming his porterhouse steaks.

My companion effortlessly snapped through the steak’s bone with his jaw, favoring his right side as he chewed loudly, staring me down as he pushed aside the juice-soaked plate. Bedlam put his right fist on the wooden table. Then his left. A loud snort preceded the heavy, exaggerated swallow. He leaned forward, his chair scraping loudly against the limestone floor as he jerked his head side to side.

Same! I had two growing up, a pair of sisters, both almost made it to 20.

See I offset this by having a black cat. Two wrongs make a right!

I too would want my antique weapons looking antique! Sure, some maintenance here and there but I'd want that charm.

I just live in a red state, makes it easy to set expectations when there are none.

Thanks! I hadn't even thought of that comparison but that makes total sense!

#WIPSnips Local. After an unsuccessful assault against the largest city in the world, talks emerge on how to repurpose one of the enemy airships.

Indeed, it was impressive, a vessel capable of flight and similar in size to one of the countless tradeships I had traveled throughout the years. Capable of housing at least a hundred occupants, if not more. The runes were the biggest issue. Local craftsman, those responsible for the upkeep of the Grand Riotion Capital, were confident they could return the ship to its previous form. Without the runes to grant it flight, however, it would simply remain an impediment to the residents.

I married my boss! She was the admin on a gaming website and I was a moderator that she hired on.

It happened years after the fact but I still like to tell people.
