Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

You can do anything.

Write something random

Do the summary of your trilogy

Roll around in ketchup covered ice cream, gliding through the sunset towards volcanoes.

Lol, Phoenix Productions joke. We were talking about ketchup and volcanoes and ice cream. >.<

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

*Sighs*posts in topics in which humhum is very active in much too often and hopes it won't effect the little sanity he has left *sighs*

Basically, my trilogy is set in the future when the whole universe is enslaved by a mysterious force called the Gavlach (Gav-lah-kch). 50 years or so ago, the whole universe was at peace because of the humans (Hyoo- mAns). Now the humans are almost extinct, but there is proof that they have survived the slavers and they are hanging on. 512 characters- new post.

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

The only hope to overthrow the Gavlach is to find the humans, bring them back and use their'  advanced technology to overthrow the Gavlach.
Beneath most enslaved planet's crusts, encircling the core, is the only hope of finding the only hope (so far my name for this organisation is the human quest, which is a bit cheesy, please could you help me think of a better name?)
Vagrayen is a casttravien heptoid (cast-T-tra-vEE-en, if you were wondering what the creature in m example was, this is it). New post.

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Vagrayen is the hero, Gethsafie is the heroine, they have both been summoned my the mysterious "intelligence division" to partake a highly important mission, whatever that may be. Both are casttravien heptoids. Cattravien heptoids have:
7 legs
A shell
2-3 brains
7 eyes
1 eye socket
2 arm/wing hybrid thingys
They are crustaceous
Gethsafie is black, Vagrayen is blue. Please don't use my ideas, that's just the synospis, i haven't told you a lot in case someone browsing this forum decides to copy.

1st book, still not sure of the cut-off point. I was hoping you might help me with the name of the rebellion? Has anyone thought of anything better than 'human quest'?

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

I have a story, or intro/ epilogue anyway

                                               The Tme Keepers

People say things such as " I can remember it like yesterday! and" Where did the day go?", they are far more insightful than they believe. " Where did the day go?" It went here...

Rows and rows, racks upon racks of bottles. Some are tall and slim, others short and wider then they are high.  They are made of plastic, glass, wood, metal, leather, anything! And inside, well... If i said it contained joy and sadness ,summers and rains, the scent of a rose, the taste of burnt toast, shades upon shades of blue and red and yellow, smiles, tears, - I wouldn't even be close.

This is where the memories go, this is where time goes, this is where the day you left the oven on and completely burnt the bread goes. This is where history goes.
And who observes it, who bottles and stoppers it, who keeps it? We do. Who are we? We are the Time keepers...


I probably won't post any more though cause i'm planning on developing it and i'm scared of plagerism and what-not. But yeah, its a work in progress.

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Man... That's awesome. Do you have a plot in mind or no? We could just report copying (plagiarism) if it happens, but you don't have to develop it on here if you don't want to.

You're in. Lol, thanks for editing that application. XD

You don't need to view projects. Here we just share ideas, write on the forums, and share in the library.  smile  No need for projects at all, unless you want to.

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Random story beginning:
People used to say that the world was green, blue, gold, white and grey. Now it's anything you want it to be. Just think- the world changes around you. No need to lift a finger, everything's what you want in a matter of seconds, or minutes, or some made up unit that you have decided that the rest of the world uses. So it is with the game. Everyone thinks they rule the 'world' as it were. They virtual reality game of life. New post!

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Everyone has lived in the game for so long, they even have virtual reality children. The world is at peace, as no one lives in it anymore. They live in the game, the life which could never be. Streets are deserted, everyone is living where everyone isn't. All exept the few seemingly mad conspiracy theorists, who have built a telescope and have noticed an impending alien invasion is on it's way. Now they have to get people out of the game, away from their' fake children, and save the world.

The Ghostly Child

She glows with a dull light from within,
and tattered petticoats and plaits
flutter in a nonexistent breeze.
Her delicate feet rest an inch above the ground,
her eyes are young yet old beyond age
and her lips move a moment before they sound.

She laughs in an echoing way
and ancient eyes glow bright.
"Whom are you to challenge me?"
she asks in a childish voice
both curious and menacing.
She laughs and
goes to touch my brow.

And then I see behind the facade,
I see whats really there
and I am scared
and I am scared
and I am sca- "Meow"

Puzzled, I look around
I look around and see...
My cat? The thing it screams
the most inhuman sound and
glows and glows and glows
until there is nothing but the unbearable light.

I flinch and turn away and she is gone.
The slightest murmur in the air the only
sign of her existence.

I fall back
and wake
and wonder...
Was it just a dream
or was it real?
"Meow"



Can someone edit it?

Yup. ^^
Since it's a poem, I didn't want to edit any of the structure.
It's really good. ^^
Just work on capitalizing the I's. :) :] :D

@HumHum, is this what I was supposed to edit?
