Our Own Original (OOO) Incorrect Quotes Tag!

I was tagged by @rickie-the-storyteller for this one! Thank you so much for the tag (:

I seriously hope I did this right.

Here's my version of your incorrect quote!

(This gives me strong Rylisan & Caladin banter vibes, because Rylisan Fenrith is such an awkward, uptight, and serious guy who had difficulty grasping human sense of humor, especially at the beginning of the series, and Caladin not only used to take nearly nothing seriously when they first met but he adored making Rylisan nearly lose his mind at him. This quote is legit something he could actually say, I'm not even joking LMAO)

Rylisan: Caladin, you shouldn't call for help unless you genuinely need it. I'm happy to answer questions, as long as they are relevant to what we're doing.

Caladin: Alight, Sir. Oh! I have another question, now - what is a pie, in mathematics?

Rylisan: Uh-

Caladin: Like, this sheet asks you to give your answer in terms of a pie, and I have no clue what that is…

Rylisan: Not "a pie," Caladin. Pi. It's a constant. We've been over this...

Caladin: How many kinds of Pi are there?

Rylisan: What?

Caladin: My mum makes the best Pi. She does a great apple Pi, chicken Pi, shepherd's Pi… (sigh) God. I miss her. I miss her Pi…

Rylisan: Caladin, please listen-

Caladin: How can you give a number in terms of Pi, Sir? And what Pi do I need to give it in terms of? How do I work out what type of Pi to give it in terms of?

(Rylisan has no idea what to say to that)

Here's your incorrect quote, to whomever shall do this next!

From my WIP Realms of Loss - (I refuse to give context to this quote LMAO, figure it out!)

Person A - ... And that's how I almost burned down the entire castle when I was 12 after my attempt at the kitchen rafters to sneak a plate of cupcakes nearly toppled three torches onto the oak floors!

Person B - (blinks, silent, reconsidering his entire list of life choices up to this point) ...

Person A - Aw, c'mon, how come that doesn't make you smile even a little?

Person B - (drags hands over face with a groan) The only thing I got from this two-hour-long conversation is that you're a feral maniac with no regard for safety.

(there's an awkward silence and the conversation shifts to other matters. After a while, Person B hums, curiosity winning over, before genuinely asking, slightly confused.)

Person A - ...

Person B - ...

Person B - Though there's the one thing I would like to know ... what are cupcakes?

Person A - How do you not...? Oh you're going to love this concept.

What if I made a Writeblr tag game where we turn lines of dialogue from our own stories into an incorrect quote for the next person to insert their characters into. Is that anything

For whichever character you fancy, what simple activity that most people do / can do scares them?

Thank you for the Ask, @trancetales!

For whichever character you fancy, what simple activity that most people do / can do scares them?

I chose one character from each of my Main WIPs to answer this one!

(From Tales of Wilted Flowers)

Neoma'ka Ornasi is a fearsome goblin warrior. She has vanquished beasts and defeated mercenaries! And yet, she is dreadfully terrified of the sea (having strong Thalassophobia, a trait that I too share), though she is also a weak swimmer and an even worse diver, so her fear does have a reason. She cannot fathom why people would ever want to leave the safety of the mainland to venture into uncharted waters with untold monsters within - even worse, why people would consider sailing for a living, like the many pirates and sailors she has encountered throughout the story!

(From The Last Wrath)

Bryn Seperi is deathly afraid of fire due to a certain traumatic event in his backstory. Due to this, activities as simple as cooking, sitting around a fire, or walking into a candle-lit store can turn into terrifying flashbacks if he is not extremely vigilant, so he avoids all of that completely.

(From Enchanted Illusions)

Evangeline Daemitya is afraid of needles, something that turns sewing, patching things up and even getting a blood draw, into bone-chilling situations to her. Getting injections is so terrifying to her that she sometimes passes out at the mere sight of it.

Get to Know my OC Tag!

I was tagged by @doublegoblin for this! Thank you so much (:

I've done this, a long time ago, for Raelen - from my WIP, The Last Wrath. This time, I'll do this tag for Ahren Ellara - from my WIP, Tales of Wilted Flowers.

Ahren is Faellyn's stern but caring, cousin and adoptive brother (when their House - and their entire family legacy - fell they became the only family each other had to rely on, it had some effects on Ahren's psyche, making him incredibly paranoid)

(You see a tall, lanky young man with long, unruly silvery blond hair, walking towards you. His head is held high, proud, though he fidgets anxiously with his hands as he sits down in front of you. Posture immaculate, though the nervous fidgeting doesn't quite stop, he looks at you, wary and haughty at the same time.)

Are you named after anyone? 

No, I do not think so. Though my father was rather sentimental, I don't think I was named after anyone - at least, not after anyone whom I know or whose name is on our family records. If I was named after anyone else though, there's just no way I could know - and currently, it's too late to ask, wouldn't you say?

When was the last time you cried? 

Why do you ask?! (He blurts out, a bit louder than he'd intended, before sighing, though his eyes narrow, suspiciously) Oh for the love of Gods, fine...When those awful dreams started, a couple of weeks ago. I think - it's all rather blurry, really. (Leans forward, suddenly dangerously serious, showing a hidden dagger) No one else knows, and I am not above making sure it stays this way.

Do you use sarcasm? 

The answer is yes, I think so. I usually don't do it extremely on purpose, it mostly comes out naturally - especially when I'm dealing with annoying company or unexpected situations. Some people think my remarks are quite funny, but I still don't know why.

Do you have kids? 

If you count Faellyn... kinda? I mean, of course, I'm not her father, I'm her cousin, obviously, I'm not that much older than her - but I think I did raise her? I don't know if it really counts, as I was a teenager who didn't have many options and she was an insufferable kid (he chuckles), and later on we got a bodyguard. One could say we raised one another, but given the slight age difference and the assassins on our tracks, I think I did most of the work.

What’s the first thing you notice about people?

If they're lying to me, or trying to deceive me or use me in any way. Because most people are, especially when you've got royal blood in your veins and a bounty on your head. I also notice whether or not they're an immediate threat. If not, I mostly notice their quirks, whether they have a sense of humor, if they're assassins working for the King - you know, the normal stuff.

What’s your eye color? 

Dark Greyish Blue, but it does seem to have a slight green hue. I like my eyes.

Scary or Happy Endings? 

(With a mischievous smile, leans forward). Why not both? There's nothing wrong with the right amount of terror and fun!

Any special talents? 

I've been trained in sword fighting and archery, and I would say I am pretty good at it. I also like to write poetry I never let anyone read and I can embroider/sew somewhat adequately.

Where were you born? 

I was a child/ward of House Ellara, whose castles were hidden in the Far Reaches of Ravaryn, so I'm pretty sure I was born in one of the royal chambers of one of those castles. I don't quite remember which one though, it's been a while since I was there.

What are your hobbies? 

Uh, I draw and write random stuff in my journal, sometimes? I guess poetry like I mentioned before, but I'm in no way that good at it. Those are the only things I could honestly think of - I've never quite had a routine or hobbies, that is, and certainly never quite had the time to actively pursue interests like that.

Do you have any pets? 

No. Though, when I was a young kid, I distinctly remember that my elder brothers had a hunting hound named Sundew. She was quite adorable, but I never quite knew what came of her, after everything happened.

What sports do you play/have played? 

I'm not a huge fan of sports, but I guess sword fighting and archery do count as some form of that, don't they? So yeah, I think that's an acceptable answer.

Favorite subject in school? 

I was educated by the best tutors on the land, and my favorite subjects were philosophy and the art of politics. I was also quite good at chess and literature!

Dream job?

... Being a Lord again. Does that count? Oh, it doesn't matter. Does it though? I've done my fair share of working while traveling through these rather accursed lands, and for all I care, what I really want is to go back to what I was. But, honestly, as if that's ever going to happen.
