The Writers Thread
This is a thread where all you writers out there can dump ideas you don't want and maybe get some from others, see if a plot sounds right, get help thinking up a title, see what great stories are out there and any other things I can't think of!
Here are a couple of my ideas I don't want.
- A dragon's soul is stuck in a wooden puppet dragon and it has to figure out how to escape its puppeteer and get back to its rightful place.
- The Somethingorothers.
I'll leave you with that.
Heck yes I'm a-trackin'! I shall have a dump ready sometime later today >;P
Ohhh, yes! Tracking. I have a few that I’ll post later.
Tracking it like a rumblehorn!
Little girls favorite stuffed animal is actually a great beast that has sworn to protect said girl, and has disguised itself as a stuffed animal so that it never has to leave her side.

I've got a post-apocalyptic one with submarines, but I just can't think of a name. The best one I have is "Deep Waters" but I'm not entirely happy with it.
I'll think on that. What's the name of the place?
It takes place on the ocean. I should have given a more detailed description on the plot...
A meteor made up of frozen H2O crashes into the earth, and completely shifts weather and climate. After decades of rain, the sea level has increased by thousands of meters, and humans survived in giant submarines. Almost the whole earth is covered with water.
The story is rather simple. There is a protagonist whose submarine was destroyed, and she makes it to the surface. She gets picked up by a guy on a makeshift sailboat, and they try to survive, find land, and find out what destroys all those submarines.
What about Desolate Ocean?
That sounds good. Maybe I can just write it first and think of a name later? I used to do this, but a friend of mine told me it's better the other way around.
Sometimes it works with a title first, other times it's vice versa. With A Multiverse of Dragons it was title first, with Wolves and The Empty Inn it was story first.
Oh, yeah!! This is a brilliant thread!!
: An altered universe in which dragons actually exist and said "Berkians" do know where they are currently residing, so they can protect them but continue to promote the idea that they do exist.
: Where all of us are living in a dream (or experimentation process about total human functions) and that everything we do is actually fake (for example, you think you're writting on the forums? Fake.)
: There's a veiled world happening just in front of us and there's people who can access it, and there's an entity that follows you around. Those knives you heard moving in the middle of the night? Your personal entity.
- Uh, slightly confused
- I was thinking of one like that (or was I?)
- Have you heard of odyllic force? There's a trilogy called The Promises of Dr Sygmundus that has a kind of vailed world in it.
1st - > basically, that dragons do exist, and that the Hidden World could be out there irl (for example it could actually be the Bermuda Triangle; just a thought process)
2nd - > great minds think alike ;)
3rd - > never had I heard anything like that, but thanks for letting me know (sos, gotta erase the entire script I had so far... only 200 words, no big deal hahaha)
My God Emerald, that is brillliant!
The 1st idea about the Hidden World being in somewhere like the Bermuda Triangle or something like that. :D
Track!
I want to make a ten part story with some of my adopted dragons. They are all going to have a meaning, I just can't think of ten meanings XD
Here's the dragons names, (pics in my siggy)
Flightingale (freedom)
Gabryall (loneliness)
Vennomm
Whippersnap
Lyulf
Infernace
Crimson
Whitetalon Ice Woolly
Ka Ledasio
Lasair (coming soon)
Wow this thread died quick
I've seen really good ideas on this thread, and I'll reply to them in a sec.
I hope that this thread shakes up and that we can begin to talk on it again! :D
Yeah, I hope so too. :D
This thread seems to be officially dead.
oof... I was going to say tracking :P
Hopefully this thread will pick up again.
Well, since you mentioned getting help on titles, I’d most definitely like an opinion. I’m working up a final story for my boi King Noodle and will be relating it to the upcoming Valentine's Day, so the title is probably going to be cheesy romantic (sounds better in my head).
What I have is “Rosen Trees.” It is the name of a piano piece I love and kind of relates to love. I have nothing else. Do you have any suggestions?
Rosen Trees is quite good. I'm guessing it takes place in a forest?
(I'm terrible with titles, sorry):
Finaltine (bcs of final King Noodle story :'( )
Tbh, your title is perfect :)
A bit? I haven't considered the setting too much other then there's gonna be a lot of cliche` pink petals - which I'm sure isn't possible in an north-European place, but whatever! I'll think of something. . .
I do like Finaltine. Very dramatic for such a silly bean. I honestly have no idea if this will be the last of King Noodle - I was working on a story on where he came from but that got boring quick. But, for now, I'm considering his little story line finished.
Thank you for such a quick responce! I had no idea if this was still going on X3
XD
A title may come after you've written it.
There could be flashbacks or dreams of Where he came from? That way you could combine two stories in one..
I just so happened to be on seven seconds after you posted XD I hope this thread keeps going, it'd be nice to share ideas with other writers :)
Too busy with my original fiction pieces and Star Wars "I DON'T CARE, I'M BREAKING MOVIE CANON" fan fiction do any of these. But tbh, they'd be hilarious:
1. Weird magic crap happens and suddenly all the human characters have switched bodies
2. Stoick has turned into a baby - send help
3. The characters are thrown into a fandom universe with a villain that makes grimmel look like a walk in the park
4. "You're a lizard, Hiccup."
5. "Kylo Ren, THE FORCE DOESN'T EXIST ON BERK."
6. "Hiccup, your mother's a dragon."
Have fun. I'm heading back to slaving over my project.
Those are some good ideas!
Good luck with your project! I still need to read it o_o
I would love it if someone did comedic fluff pieces of Snotlout admiring himself as Astrid omigosh!
Thank you. Don't pressure yourself to read it, it hasn't been posted yet ; ) The story is taking a while to come together. I'm trying to make sure the franchise characters sound themselves, that all new characters don't sound like annoying perfecty perfect people, and the story contains somewhat accurate canon lore. SOMEWHAT lol
Dude, at this point, the only way to save the Star Wars franchise IS to break the canon X3
I LOVE the idea of Number 6. Kind of reminds me of Flitt's Dragonblood, but more biological, and I'm all about science!
(I also can't stop imaging what Hiccup's reaction would be to Baby Stoick. . .)
Thou hath been secretly readeth? O.o
Yea, the last is my favourite. Though how...?
(Ikr XD)
When people say I have to stick to canon pairings:
In all honesty, though I'm not going to force myself to study the deep pockets of Star Wars lore, I have been provided with information that has assisted in keeping the story somewhat lore friendly. I have a few knowledgable friends. And though there was new information provided in the new trilogy, I'm trying to avoid it.
If someone wrote the sixth prompt, I'd expect a comedy full of ridiculous jokes, many characters making weird mistakes and loads of puns.
I was looking at your bio and saw this link! Since I'm kinda a writer I might be coming here a LOT in the future, plus I do have some ideas currently that I'm having issues with!

Heya! Hope we can be of some sort of help XD

Anyone got any help tips on settings? I write diolauge (jeez I can never spell that right) but always have trouble describing settings- if what I just said makes any sense XDD
Try thinking of what your setting looks, sounds, feels and smells like, then see what words you can use to describe it. Try and find unusual words, it keeps the script interesting.
I'll probably be back with more in a bit, in college rn XD
Thanks! I'll try. I'll try describing a random setting and posting it here for critisim, I trust y'all as fantastic writers XD
And ooooo, okie! Good luck with everything at college, Flitt :3
Oooohhhh, and colours too XD
Look forward to reading :D
Ty. I think I need it XD
Okie! As promised... I have returned with a really bad draft of a setting. The setting was chosen at random (well not necessarily- it's where I want to be right now XD) sooo yeah! XDD
With out further ado:
*launches writing at Flitt and runs away to hide in a hole*
The trek upwards was grueling. Even with all the physical preparation Sofia's (name chosen at random XDD) legs burned and ached with every step. She had half a mind to start the climb back down. Sofia stopped and leaned on her walking stick, beginning to contemplate her options.
It was getting chilly, as the sun was setting down. The sky was beginning to light up with soft pink, orange, and blue hues. The wind blew lightly around her, sometimes seeming to whisper messages of encouragment. The vivid green grass around her swayed to and fro in the breeze, seeming to dance along with it. Everything here felt so... alive in a way. It was something to be crammed up in an apartment in New York city, but this, this was a whole other level of Earth she had never experienced.
The birds around her chirped melodically, comunicating in their own ways of doing so. She gripped her walking stick and lifted her chin. She could make it up- she knew she would be able to.
AAAAAAHHHH
That was tttteeeRRRRRiiiiBBBlllEEe
Please don't read it XDDD
That's great!! On par with some of the top authors, I'd say! Ik everyone thinks their writing is bad, but you're good :D really good.
Only thing I can see that could be added in, and this is being picky, is what the walking stick is made of.
Whaaaat? *hides in hole again*
Thank you so much Flitt, that does mean a lot :D
And yesh, everyone always says their writing is bad because mine is but it still means so much that people like it :3
Oooo, okie! I hadn't thought about that, but that could certianly be something I could do. I might rewrite it with what the walking stick is made of, and some other things. Thank you so much for the feedback, you have no idea how much it means to me :DD
This is really good! And something I really liked was that you didnt use the passive verbs alot; everything was in action.

Rather a longish name for a smallish Viking. Hiccup is a member of the Hairy Hooligan tribe. He has bright red hair and about a million freckles. the series starts when he's ten-and-a-half, and progresses until he is fifteen and King of the Wilderwest. His best (and, for a few books, ONLY friend) is Fishlegs.
Fishlegs is scrawny, allergic to reptiles, pretty much scared of everything, and the only sane one of the group (well, the only sane one when Hiccup is making a Plan). But he's fiercely loyal to Hiccup, and a good deal stronger and braver than he thinks. 
She's a Bog-Burglar, a member of an all-girls tribe of people who, well, burgle things. She is a very accomplished thief and a master escape artist.

Shadow and The Dragoness together (by The Blobfish Queen).
Ohh goodness, thank you Ness! :D
And yeah! I prefer using active verbs, but sometimes get too carried away with them. :3
This is a plot generator that I found quite fun to mess around with XD I'll probably post some of the plots I've made on it sometime, being as I doubt I'll use them.
https://blog.reedsy.com/plot-generator/
Tip: click on the greyish words, the ones with the padlock, to stick them there while you can generate something else... That made no sense XD
It's literally a giant banner in your signature, Flitt XD well, I'm here! And looking forward to seeing all the writes and ideas 0.0
XD welcome! I haven't had it in my siggy long, so that'll be why
This is useful for building characters, it's scarily accurate XD
