• 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?

    HOLLYWOOPER: a fakemon forum that doesn't suck

    This actually looks pretty sweet. I'm currently working on a "fakedex" of my own, although I only have five and a half finalized drawings of pokemon (and they are pretty shitty drawings). However, I do have a pretty decent amount of rough sketches and vague concepts. I'll join, I guess, when...

    NaNoWriMo 2010

    @Butterfree: Thanks, that was helpful. Looking back I do think I use way too many dialogue tags. Although I always had this idea that it was sort of sloppy to just put the quote in its own paragraph without any indication of who is saying it. I think that might stem from this one time in first...

    NaNoWriMo 2010

    I do use said a lot - you don't see me writing something like "'Yeah,' he ejaculated". But once you get into those lonnnnggg stretches of dialogue, you start to get tired of "he said", "she said", "Daniel said", "F'thorgangler said", and you try to spice it up, make it a bit interesting. But...

    Completed mM's NaNoWriMo - Clarence's Jacket (title subject to change)

    I read your prologue and chapter one. Here's a fresh batch of criticism for you: You have a problem with your writing, which is essentially that there's this awkward, forced tone that takes over the entire story. It's doesn't make your story unreadable, or even hard to understand, but when you...

    Can An Atheist Be Spiritual?

    Absolutely yes. iirc and this is a bit of extrapolation on my part, but "spiritual atheist" I think is the largest growing religious group in the US, maybe even the world today. Also: me. I am an atheist, I guess (I don't believe that there is a God) although I dislike the label. You might...

    In Progress il NaNo di surskitty; a currently untitled KHR/Pokémon crossover fusion

    Re: il NaNo di surskitty; a currently untitled KHR/Pokémon crossover fusion This is over your first post. I'm kind of doing a thing where I'm trying to review the first post or so on everyone's NaNoWriMo, as they all desperately need love. Might read the rest later. I had to google KHR, so it...

    In Progress The Marvelous Epoch of a Champion (An unconventional fanfic in technicolor)

    I only read the first few chapters, but this is REALLY excellent. I was smiling pretty hard the whole time, and even laughed out loud once or twice - which is very rare for "humorous" fanfiction and me. I would offer some constructive criticism, but pretty much everything you are doing "works"...

    In Progress Keta's Nanowrimo

    I only read the first post so far, but I really like your style. This is some good writing, especially for NaNoWriMo. I might make it sound like I didn't like it in the following commentary, but that's just because it's easier to focus on negatives than on positives. I was a bit wary of the...

    NaNoWriMo 2010

    ugggh I am just so far behind. Trying to use this weekend to catch up, but I simply don't feel like writing at all lately. What I feel like doing is DRAWING. I wish I was doing NaPiDraMo or whatever but that's just how it goes. edit: Also, I know that a while back Hikaru suggested setting a...

    ~~MANIFESTO FOR ORIGINALFLAVOR POKEMON FANFICTION~~

    Haha RIGHT NOW in my NaNoWriMo two boys are smoking weed in the closet of an elementary school classroom after a teacher locked them in there because she is under the mind control spell of another teacher who is an Illuminatus. One of the kids remembers hiding a little slip of paper in the...

    Rumored form for Kyurem.

    I certainly hope it gets one. The big issue I have with Kyurem is that Reshiram and Zekrom are both extremely cool pokemon, but Kyurem just doesn't complement them the way it should. R and Z both look a) really cool b) unmistakably legendary (unlike, say, the cow trio) c) complementary...

    Heaven

    I'd also like to add that, if heaven is real, it is definitely very unfair for anyone to be forced to hell for ALL OF ETERNITY based on what they did for ~70 years. That would be like if on Earth, we were either pampered or tortured for our entire lives based on how we acted in the womb. Only...

    Rape As Comedy--Should it be allowed?

    I knew someone was going to say this, even though I made extra sure to make myself clear: "I agree, all rape is obvs terrible" "obviously this still doesn't mean it's okay AT ALL" "morally reprehensible, of course" You might be right! I have obviously never been in either situation, on either...

    Rape As Comedy--Should it be allowed?

    Alright, now I think I understand what you are talking about. Thanks for that post. Alright, so I admit I was considering the "dark alley" case while writing that post. I will now attempt to rectify that. I guess let's set aside a few different types of rape cases. Case a - dark alley. Case b...

    Heaven

    This is a really well-written essay, although I think the reaction of anyone who has thought about it for more than ten minutes can probably be summarized as "no shit". Maybe it's just me? But uh for some reason this brings back a really specific memory of my sixth grade social studies class...

    Rape As Comedy--Should it be allowed?

    Butterfree pretty much said it all, a lot better than I did. but: I really don't think this is true. (I hear plenty of rape jokes day-to-day in high school) There are no rape jokes in TV or movies because there would be a massive backlash against the studio. There are more rape jokes on the...

    Backstory-showing Help

    Show the flashbacks? Third-limited is what Harry Potter is written in, right? Or alternatively, third-limited is when the narration is in third person and you can see inside one character's head? Well, it didn't stop J.K. from making chapters like The Boy Who Lived or The Riddle House, so it...
