Help Needed!

Hey everyone! I'm posting this here because this is my blog with the most followers. I'm taking an English class that requires a paper that I have to conduct research on, so I made an anonymous survey.

Most questions are optional and multiple choice, and the topic is "What makes an effective writer?" All responses are very appreciated, even if you don't write. <3

Apologies if the options on the main question at the end are a little bit confusing; I tried to explain them concisely to the best of my ability, but feel free to dm me if you need more clarification!

strange that "skinny" means thin. it should mean...skinny. characterized by skin. possessing or characterized by an above average amount of skin. more skin rather than less skin. but somehow it means less skin? preposterous

The Legend of the Prefect of NRC

Legend has it there was once a Prefect at NRC.

The Prefect appeared one day with chaos at their heels.

Not much is known about them as an individual, but they are known for their achievements.

They stopped great calamities that befell the Island of Sage.

At times, even stopped Twisted Wonderland from unraveling.

Not much is known about what happened to them.

Some say they returned from whence they came.

Some say they chose to stay.

Some say they even found romance or traveled the world.

But there is one aspect everyone agrees on.

They were cherished by all who knew them.

And they, in return, loved them just as much.

It is no wonder the Great Seven became the Great Eight in homage to the Prefect and those who lived in Ramshackle Dorm.

A statue of three ghosts, a chimera, and a hooded figure made of marble commemorates the newly established dorm at the Main Street of NRC.

Now you may wonder, what does this dorm represent?

It is based on the spirit of the Prefect of Legend, the one known to tame even the mightiest.

The Ramshackle Dorm is for those who do not belong. Those who have the potential for greatness beyond any normal means.

Now take the hand before you, for you have been chosen.

The Ramshackle Dorm welcomes you.

Hey. Gentiles. Listen up for a sec.

When September and October are nearing and you’re planning an event: google “Rosh Hashanah *year*” and *Yom Kippur *year*” and then, and I cannot stress this enough, don’t plan your event on those days. In fact, don’t plan any events starting sundown the night before. Those are the three most important days of the Jewish calendar, and, once again, I cannot stress enough how much this little bit of forethought and kindness will make every Jew you know cry tears of joy.

Lost Love Found

As the raindrops gently fall, each one echoing the pitter-patter of her emotions, she walks with a heaviness in her steps. Her eyes search the faces that pass her by, hoping to find a glimpse of the person who fills the void in her heart. It’s as if a part of her is incomplete, yearning for the presence of someone.

 As the rain continued to caress the pavement, her mind wandered back to the fateful day when she lost him. It had been months since they parted ways, and not a day went by without her reminiscing about their shared laughter, stolen glances, and the warmth of their embrace.

 The memories replayed like a bittersweet melody in her mind, evoking a sense of longing that gnawed at her soul. She couldn't shake the feeling that destiny was conspiring to keep them apart, leaving her wandering through life's maze, seeking a beacon of hope.

 With each step, she silently pleaded with the universe to guide her back to him, to grant her another chance at happiness. The raindrops mirrored her tears, mixing with the rain-soaked streets as if to wash away her sorrow and cleanse her spirit.

 As she continued her journey, she noticed a figure ahead, huddled under an umbrella, shielding themselves from the downpour. Her heart skipped a beat, recognizing the familiar silhouette. Could it be?

 Driven by a surge of hope, she quickened her pace, closing the distance between them. The figure turned, and their eyes met, sparking an undeniable connection. Time seemed to stand still as they gazed at each other, both frozen in disbelief.

 "I've been searching for you," she finally managed to whisper, her voice barely audible over the rain.

 A radiant smile spread across his face, mirroring the warmth that flooded her heart. "And I've been waiting," he replied softly, his words carried by the raindrops.

 In that moment, the void in her heart began to fill, piece by piece, as they embraced. The world around them blurred into insignificance as they reveled in the joy of reunion, their love transcending the confines of time and distance.

 With every passing moment, they realized that the storms they had weathered had only strengthened their connection. The raindrops, once a reflection of her sorrow, now became a symbol of renewal, washing away the pain and ushering in a new chapter.

 Together, they embarked on a shared journey, hand in hand, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. The rain continued to fall, but this time, it was a gentle reminder of the love that had weathered the storm and triumphed against all odds.

 As they walked through the rain-soaked streets, their steps grew lighter, the heaviness replaced by a renewed sense of purpose. For they knew that, come rain or shine, they had found the missing piece of their souls, forever completing each other's hearts.

Prompt from @help-i-need-a-cool-username

Jason has once again snuck into Gotham University. Now, before any assumptions are made onto why the crime lord would break into a college, the reason is because he likes the library. That's it. The public library is trashed and small, barely taken care of, but Gotham U's? It's beautiful. Multiple floors, organized and in sections, taken care of, alphabetical order, it's magnificent. The chairs were a reason alone to sneak in, but the students here added an extra charm. 

He had gone to the very back of the library on the second floor. This area was  pretty well hidden and enclosed. He would come here to read without anyone questioning him, even hiding the books he wasn’t finished with yet to continue on later. Jason wasn’t expecting someone to be so close to his spot though. A few tables across stood a student, thin, tall, with pitch black hair, baggy cargo jeans, and a white t-shirt. The other hadn’t noticed him yet, so he remained quiet and just watched. He was in front of a large white board on wheels, seemingly taken from the rooms he saw down the hall. 

“That doesn’t work, goddammit.”

On the white board was lines upon lines of equations- at least he thought they were equations, with most of them being letters and symbols rather than numbers. It made the vigilante’s brain hurt. The student - assumed STEM major - just kept mumbling to himself.

“Stupid physics, won’t allow interdimensional travel”

What? Jason may have been out of school since 15, but he knew no courses were asking for the answer to traveling between dimensions. It seemed the student had a habit of talking to himself when worked up or focused, possibly why he isolated himself from the rest of the library. 

“If your parents could do it, why can’t you? Think Danny, think!”

That sentence wasn’t concerning at all, but at least Jason learned the boy’s name. Danny seemed to have a strange background, what did he mean by ‘if your parents could do it’? Had his parents managed to travel between dimensions? The other was chewing on the cap of the white board marker, his other hand resting on his hip as he swayed back and forth.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! That! The thing! That thingy!”

Jason could practically see the lightbulb go on above Danny’s head. Just then the other erased a solid portion of the whiteboard and dropped to his knees, ouch. He started frantically scribbling, fast and messy, barely cohesive. Though, Jason was sure that if it was Tim sitting where he was instead, the boy could probably understand everything on that board. He’d stick to English literature, thank you very much. 

“That’s it! Oh my ancients! I got it!”

Danny practically jumped in the air, punching the air in triumph. Jason almost felt proud of him, this complete stranger he’s been watching, wow he was being creepy, huh? Danny shot both of his arms straight up, the marker gripped tightly in his right hand fist. 

“I did it!”

He looked so happy, so excited. He began to buzz, even spinning, before stopping mid loop and turning around slowly. Shit, Jason had been caught. To be fair, Danny hadn’t exactly turned around the whole time, meaning Jason was just watching his back the whole time as he worked through his… problem? It’s such a shame, Jason was thoroughly entertained by this random kid. 

“Uhhh, hi? How long have you been there?”

Oh shit, Jason had to talk now, didn’t he?

“Not very long, but long enough to know you were trying to solve interdimensional travel before apparently succeeding.” 

The color drained from Danny’s face. Whoops?

“Uhm, no I didn’t.”

Now that he got a closer look, the student looked like someone Bruce would adopt. Black hair, clear blue eyes, tan skin, sharp features, the whole nine yards. He was actually fairly attractive, maybe even cute. 

“Really? I could have sworn that you said ‘stupid physics won’t allow interdimensional travel’”

“I have no clue what you’re talking about.”

“Yeah sure, and I’m a student here.”

“Wait, you’re not a student here?”

“That’d only be true if you were lying.”

“Well I’m not so-”

“Uh huh, sure you’re not.”

“Look dude-”

“Jason.”

“Look Jason, there’s no way that I could solve interdimensional travel, the multiverse doesn’t exist.”

“Look Danny-”

“How do you know my name?”

“I won’t tell a single soul if you explain how you did it to me”

Curiosity won his gambit. Would he regret what he was about to say? Perhaps.

“Maybe over a coffee?”

He knew it was worth it when the marker hit the floor and Danny moved his hand to cover his red face. Well, it wasn’t the first time he’s done something he regrets, maybe this time it’d be a cute STEM major who knows the secrets to the multiverse.
