• 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?

    Names

    Names are an often overlooked part in writing, often assigned to just whatever the author has in mind without too much thought (well, at least in amateur writing). How do you create your names? Are they words that mean something in English and symbolic of the name's owner? Or do you use Google...

    In Progress The Fox and the Primrose (The Hunger Games)

    I wrote this on a whim because I am bored. It's supposed to have a fast yet ambiguous start, so tell me if you don't feel that way. Things get explained a lot more later. The other chapters will be longer, I'm already way into the second chapter but got bored of writing and started to look...

    Sex in Fiction

    Is there a point of having a (implied) sex scene if it does not further the plot (i.e. create a relationship problem or have the couple have a child) and the purpose of the work is not to titillate? In my opinion, I can find it adorable (shush) sometimes but if it was simply needed for the plot...

    Colours Mafia

    This has nothing to do with Coloursfall. Or maybe it does, who knows. This is experimental with lots of unorthodox stuff. Not unorthodox as bastard mafia, but eh. Basically stuff like status conditions, resurrection, post restrictions, etc. Basically, the players will be colours. All players...

    Using A Thesaurus

    Do you ever use any thesauri to check for words or do you only write words that naturally come to your mind? I use them sometimes but only because my vocabulary is really bad, and sometimes I can't peg the right word for a certain scenario. In that case, I go onto a thesaurus and check for...

    Team Fortress 2 Pyromania Update

    ASGASODGVSADIUCJKLGWAHSDJKLJ I personally really want to see Meet the Pyro, but since it's a one-off thing I'm more interested in the others. It's out now.. The Scout has two new weapons, a scattergun that is 40% more accurate but does 30% less damage – kind of like the shortstop. However, it...

    One-Shot Reminisce (The Legend of Korra)

    I put the flowers down beside you; it really suits you, you know? Even though I know you’d object to it, I still think you look good with it. I do it every year. It’s been a long time. I wonder if you miss me, too, but I won’t find out. I can only sit here and hope you still remember me. Asami...

    Post Count & Forum Games

    It is obvious that the post count of individual users has some degree of significance to them, whether it be (forum) age or maturity or anything else. There is even an "evolution chain" linked to it, so clearly it is an integral part of the site. Even if it is a inaccurate measure, it definitely...

    Method of writing your "role-playing"

    Do you think first person and/or present tense would be acceptable in narrating your character's actions? Or is it limited to strictly third person past tense? Thanks in advance.

    NaNoWriMo

    ...No, it didn't go THAT early this year. I'm still talking about the competition, of course, but I don't get why everyone is so keen on it. Sure, you do get a reward, and there's a sense of self accomplishment, but let's face it – none of us are professional writers, and we still have our...

    Sugar Hi! :D

    Hi! I'm yiran. I like sunshine and puppies and spoons of rainbows fed to fluffy unicorns which dance until midnight when the moon expels a mystical mist that makes people happy. Erm. Let's try that again. I'm yiran. I'm probably a lot younger than most of you, and I go to school rather than...
