00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,320
This is MJ, Author, Artist, Analyzer. This is my 10 minute writing session for March

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:10,680
1st, 2024, a Grobug Tale Chapter 15, Part 5.

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,520
You'll find that she is not the best critter about to talk to. But she is a great listener,

4
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:20,480
Widget said. The creature said nothing. Gale Hoot didn't move. Let me introduce you two

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,720
properly. Gale Hoot, the intruder. He says he doesn't know his name. I've decided to

6
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:29,980
call him Hopper because, well, he hops. Gale Hoot turned her head from side to side and

7
00:00:29,980 --> 00:00:36,600
said hop. The creature hopped. Gale Hoot's eyes widened and she bobbed her head. Widget

8
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:41,920
swirled around Hopper and said, you're going to get a lot more out of the others. And that's

9
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,400
the end of that little section of writing. And I don't really know where I'm going. I

10
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:51,080
know the character because I put the work into it. I know what Gale Hoot is like, but

11
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,800
I didn't know what that would look like with her interacting. And it's funny, as I was

12
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:59,960
writing the last little bit of it, I was thinking, you know what? It'll probably be interesting

13
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:06,000
to put Gale Hoot into a situation where somebody has something on their mind and they need

14
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,480
to talk and they need to spill their guts and she can just be there to listen. So like

15
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:16,000
I could use her as a plot device to let a character, like just spill anything they need

16
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,280
to spill. If someone needs to get something off their chest or monologue or whatever,

17
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,360
and Gale Hoot can be the one to allow them to do that. I'm even thinking for this future,

18
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,400
you know, Digimon like project where I write just a critter bot island story with just

19
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,040
the critter bots and I treat it as its own independent world with its own narrative,

20
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,480
but the characters are basically the same. But they're just, you know, they're playing

21
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:44,480
their role in their game and their story. Anyway, going forward with that individual

22
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,960
critter bot island story, I don't know if I'm going to have one kid partner with the

23
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:53,100
critter bot guardians or if I'm going to have four kids, you know, one partnering with each

24
00:01:53,100 --> 00:01:59,160
one or what, but I'm thinking, you know, I have options there and if I make it a more

25
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,920
complex character, a single character, then they can be having different experiences and

26
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,720
feeling different feelings and dealing with different things at different times and have

27
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:15,240
enough for the character to do for me to have them be, you know, benefit from, you know,

28
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,480
in a narrative plot kind of way from dealing with Gale Hoot and like just being able to

29
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,400
confess stuff or I might have a gregarious person who's the partner to Gale Hoot or I

30
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:28,840
might even have a quiet person who's the partner to Gale Hoot and they'll just like share quietness

31
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:34,320
together and that could be kind of cool, but I don't know exactly how I want to do that.

32
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,760
I don't know yet and people aren't letting me figure that out because that's life. But

33
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:47,740
anyway, that's the struggle and that's what I'm here for. So until next time, take care.

34
