[Ch 7/?] Dreamscape

[amerecles]

Mark the difference betwixt the two writers, shattered conscious scattered on the winds in two directions. One who is of light and life, the one who twists the words into shapes and pictures; and one of darkness and dirt whose best attempts seem feeble indeed

You... you updated!! You fucking updated!! - Hugs chapter and you and everything that is good in this world - I love this story! It's really interesting how things that are part of their nightmares can become a reality for them in Dreamscape. That's awesome and can give you a lot of ideas

Omg you don't know how much your review makes me smile. As a writer, the best reviews aren't blind praise, they're the detailed reasons as to /why/ a certain story or chapter is good or bad. It's even better because everything you mentioned being something you liked about the story is an effect that I strove hard to convey in my writing. And your suggestions are just great! I don't know if I can write Denmark, but I can see where he could fit in. I may try to give him a cameo. As for the mythological creatures, that's already in the works. Because it's true that not everything in the Dreamscape is always nightmarish. But what you have to realize about various fey creatures is that even if they're beautiful and mostly benign, that doesn't mean they're not dangerous in their own way. The original versions of most of the fantastical creatures we've come to see as "good" are more like...neutral, but mischievous.

I'll try and have a new update as soon as possible, but I'm kinda rusty.

Oh, oh! I know about the creatures! That's why I suggest it, like... you are great for making strong contrast on the personality of characters and creatures; they are beautiful, but at the same time very mischievous and can be very tricky if you don't pay attention, I... well, I kind of love that in your writing. And until now you've been doing such a great job with it as I say before, I just wanted to give you more ideas for the job you're doing amazingly, that's why I wrote about something like the Elysian Fields as an example; a beautiful and prosperous place, in between hellish terrain and terrible underworld creatures... something like that

You just indirectly gave me ideas for one...no...two chapters. You and another reader. I'm not going to tell you how you did it or what the ideas are because that would be mean of me to spoil it for you. And I don't do spoilers.

And yes! Exactly, someone who gets it! The Dreamscape is exactly that, a big game. But who the players are and who the game pieces are has yet to be revealed, as well as who's calling the shots.

And I like your gay hearts. They look yummy and I shall eat them all *chomp*
