• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    From an old friend

    Hey Furret, I remember you. :) I too was hit by a bout of nostalgia and decided to stop by today (... and reset my password...). I relate to being inspired to purse programming and computers. A lot of my working life today is React.js, Golang, and I've dabbled in some Kubernetes, but my...

    Chapter 3 “Water is forgiving when it is tamed. It puts out fire and quenches thirst; it is salvation for the living. But even water has a temper, and, even fire has its uses. In that respect, they are the same.” - Misty, Cerulean City Gym Leader. He punched in the numbers on the number pad...

    Thanks Negrek! Someone on the Telegram chat encouraged me to post it. Haha, this makes a lot of sense as I wrote this ~3 months into my first semester of college. I think in retrospect, I'd have had this type of scene happen between the main character and, say, his high school or middle school...

    Trigger warnings: Blood, Pokemon on human violence, racism It's been a long time since I've written this story, and it's been an even longer time since I've on these forums at all. I wrote Protean Paths in 2010, for NaNoWriMo. I completed the word requirement, then promptly dropped the story...

    One-Shot i wrote a story for my chemistry AP class

    Lololol three points. I suppose you could make more jokes about the noble gases being very noble, but my chemistry knowledge is rusty as anything- if it weren't I'd offer up more puns for grabs. :O

    I go to a school where 60%+ of the student body will have the same pronouns in terms of eye color. If you include natural hair color, then 60%+ of the student body will also have the same hair color. In other words, I dislike this system because it's still fairly "ambiguous" when applied to a...

    My hair is Asian-colored, but that's a bit beside the point of talking about languages. I've collected a few language qualifications. I passed the JLPT N4, but I estimate that my current level is about JLPT N3. I'm aiming the the JLPT N2 next year's December. As for Latin... if any one of you...

    @Zeta Reticuli: I decided to look on wikipedia for key lime pie- the result? It has been around since the 1930s. And it tastes good. >:( Okay, the bigger point in mind is that, yes, this is a planet settled by earthlings. Some cultural shifts have happened, such as cultural attitudes. However...
