Say what you will about ROP but the way that Elrond and Durin are basically in-universe Tolkien and Lewis in that they complain about each other and to each other but at the end of the day are still on the same Super Bro Wavelength about What's Really Important (because Sauron and the rings are sus and they both know it) is quality content and I will not apologize for saying so. It's my favorite thing about the series honestly
as much as i hope for there to be a completely normal jon and martin just living their lives in the tmagp universe... i think it would be just their luck that when they sent out the fears, they were ripped out of every universe in the process. like they never existed at all.
Ncuti rly just rocked up trouserless, played a high-stakes game of catch, told his younger self to get some fucking therapy, cloned the Tardis (HELLO?), and left to go clubbing. Iconic behaviour. No notes.
Since bonzo is officially here, here's some absolutely cursed images I've created during the magnus protocol arg
Go see it. Just got out of the theater and am basically balling my eyes out with my sisters.
Can someone go see We Live in a Time and report back? I need to know if I should go see it this weekend
SHESSSS BACKKKK
Bet he didn't saw that coming
Just re-listened to MAGP 10 and am I the only one who hears whispering as [ERROR] gets out?
It’s quiet but I swear it’s there behind the water sounds.
The only word I can hear clearly is “ethra” but I have no idea what it could be. Another language maybe?
Idk, it’s not in the transcript but I’m certain it’s there
persassy: the final evolution
I don’t think you understand how much it hurts to know I’ll never be able to make something as great as the stories I love
Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”
