He would sing the whiskey lullaby (because it's my fave country song)

His name is Marshal, he likes music and knows how to play a few instrument's, he's left handed, knows how to sleep while riding, has soft and sad looking brown eyes that sparkle whenever he flirts. He's all-around just a soft soul that loves his partner and would one day want to settle down and grow old with them.

Marshal is an absolute delight. Thank you for sharing. It's precious for me to hear about the character you've made and I hope you'll enjoy your time with Davi. 💛

good timezone! could we learn a little about Doc please? I love what you've shared so far, your world is brimming with rich detail and I am a girl with a fork ready to eat

Thank you, that means a lot 💛

You will meet Doc in the first chapter. He's the recipient of a package you are delivering to a mining town that is settled on the edge of a ravine. For what you know, it's one simple drop-off ;^)

He's tall in stature, fat, and hardy for he needs to be in this world. Often wearing a heavy, cowhide coat, and eye-glasses strinkly never set upon his nose no matter how much he should be of need to use them. Brown, greying hair and green, murky-like eyes that seem too unfocused for his profession. If not in his office, he'll be down bu the mines, assisting not only in medical help but labour if given the chance.

Aptly named Garland.

for the prompts, alone for Cinta and midnight for Davi ?

Cinta.

alone: How does your OC deal with loneliness? Have they ever been completely alone before? How do they act when there's no one around to see them?

Everyone faces loneliness at some point. Most of all, those like her, those with that strong front, those that don't seem lonely at all.

It's complicated. Despite it all, it's something she has found moments of comfort in, moments of rest, moments to just breathe. When alone, she doesn't need to worry, she doesn't need to make sure that there's enough food, that there's enough time to make it to the next depot, that there's enough time for everyone- everyone to survive another day.

She doesn't crave for loneliness, but she does welcome it when deserved.

Davi.

midnight: What keeps your OC up at night? Do they have nightmares? Fears? Anxieties? What do they do in the small hours of the morning when they should be sleeping?

At first, he didn't speak of them. Didn't mention them. That when you woke up mid-rest to him gasping awake, to him breathless with eyes- those warm, pretty brown eyes- searching, ghosting over you as if you weren't there. Because you weren't.

Not yet.

He didn't speak of it then.

But now, when you hold them tight, when you ground them, when you anchor them to the shore, that's when they speak. When he tells you of something lost, when you ask him if he misses it, and when he tells you that they do.

Im just thinking that my MC's partner fell in love with their raspy singing voice

Davi is undoubtedly a hopeless romantic, so it very well could have been so.

What kind of songs would your cowboy sing?

💛

[iamnowhere-if]

Perhaps a hearing aid or a blind eye if I can suggest?

📝

we will do our best; aka try and get a good amount of flavour text in there without making it seem disconnected from the character and story.

I have a system set up for the mechanical/electronic parts of society, which aligns with bigger communities/cities having access to them and maintaining them. Though, I still need to work through this to make sure it is viable for electonic aids to work in this kind of world. If not, I may not include a hearing aid itself, but the MC will be able to be HoH/partially deaf.

But in any case, I have research to do :^)

[iamnowhere-if]

hm, yes. I think I will add the option for MC to have a physical disability and the choice to have/need a mobility aid.

hello! how's work on the IF been going? don't mean to rush you, i'm just curious and excited about the IF (and davi too, they already own my heart <3)

It is going slow but boy is it going.

It's school holidays over here, so for the past several weeks I haven't had much free time. But hopefully with the new term I'll be able to get a few more days off to be able to knock out the first chapter.

We're looking at 75k words at the moment, what's included in that is the bulk of customisation.

So it's a slow start, but we're staying strong 💪

Character Playlist Two Truths and One Lie

howdy howdy, a new tag game approaches by @ibuprofen-exe

Rules: post a poll with three (or more) songs from one of your characters playlists, except there is a catch, one of the songs is not truly on their playlist. Have your followers guess, and when the poll is finished, reveal which song was the fake.

Here is Davi's from I am Now Here // To Nowhere playlist

and I'll be tagging the usuals, though I only have a slight idea over who actually has character playlists; @shai-manahan @thirtybythirty @clamoribusrogamina @lifesupreme-if

[iamnowhere-if]

This is in no way the best way to post it but it is the only way I could get the format to stay

...

We didn't make it in time for Smoochie Jam, which is a bummer, but we're still going strong. For now we are going to keep it to a single chapter release, while I am fiddling around with things further down the line, we are mostly editing and refining the current first chapter.

current word count: 23,000 [without code] to-do: + more personality choices + a solid way to define these choices + further flavour-text customisation

P.S. hello, everyone coming in new. how are you?
