When you are writing a story and refer to a character by a physical trait, occupation, age, or any other attribute, rather than that character’s name, you are bringing the reader’s attention to that particular attribute. That can be used quite effectively to help your reader to focus on key details with just a few words. However, if the fact that the character is “the blond,” “the magician,” “the older woman,” etc. is not relevant to that moment in the story, this will only distract the reader from the purpose of the scene. 

If your only reason for referring to a character this way is to avoid using his or her name or a pronoun too much, don’t do it. You’re fixing a problem that actually isn’t one. Just go ahead and use the name or pronoun again. It’ll be good.

please... if you’re going to attempt to speak in “old” english

THOU is the subject (Thou art…) THEE is the object (I look at thee) THY is for words beginning in a consonant (Thy dog) THINE is for words beginning in a vowel (Thine eyes)

this has been a psa

Board down all windows, even the small ones.

Bring whatever is outside indoors or secure it. Anything that isn't will get picked up by the wind and becomes a projectile. Projectiles kill. Projectiles break through windows. If you're not sure, secure it.

Make sure you have: non-perishable food (including canned fruit because eating salty food only for days/weeks SUCKS), lots of water, batteries of all sizes (but most importantly: AA, AAA, C, D), all important documents in a plastic bag to prevent water damage, copies of all those documents, can opener, bug spray, first aid kit, clothes, shoes, a bucket or containers to store water in so you can bathe and wash clothes and dishes, tools to handle debris after the hurricane has passed

STAY INSIDE. Don't even open the door or a window to look. What causes damage to houses is when the wind finds a hole to go in through. That's what makes it look like a tornado happened inside the room. So avoid that at all costs.

Safest place to be is in a bathroom somewhere around the center of the house.

Make sure to have enough supplies to last a week or two. This includes medication.

Stay put during the hurricane. It's very likely that during the worst of the hurricane, emergency services will NOT come even if you call 911. Or, phone service may be down. Or, 911 may be overwhelmed with calls. If you stay put, you reduce your chances of needing emergency services.

Clear away debris and water that gets stuck as soon as possible to prevent disease spread after the hurricane.

Seriously, don't go outside.

Have a handheld radio so you can listen to weather reports and the news. If you happen to also have a 2-way radio (like CB radio or ham radio), that's excellent to have too, because these work even if phone networks are down. Landline phones will most likely work too as long as the line itself isnt compromised.

Be wary of downed power lines, since they may still be live.

A Message to my Followers who are going to be impacted by Hurricane Florence.

This hurricane is dangerous.

Please, take it seriously.

It is not just a thunderstorm.

Take it from someone who went through Katrina and saw the damage a hurricane can do when it sits and builds.

It changes entire landscapes.

It kills.

Get gas now. The gas stations will begin to either run out, or put a limit to how much gas you can get. Get it now while you can, because I remember distinctly the way the abandoned cars looked on the highway while we were evacuating.

Once that storm hits, the gas stations will shut down. There will be no gas for a week, at least.

You will be stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. Make sure your car is in good working order. The amount of cars left behind on the highway is astounding.

Bring your pets in case of flooding, don’t leave them behind or in a shelter.

Take a picture of every single thing in your house the way it is. Ever dresser. Everything. If it floods, this will help with the insurance.

Power will be out for a week, possibly more. Take anything that will spoil, eat it now/bring it with you/throw it out. You don’t want to come back to a house that is 80°+ inside with spoiled food. It smells disgusting. I know from first hand experience.

Pack as much clothes + whatever else you need as you can. You don’t know what you will be returning to, if anything at all. I hate to say it, but there were so many homes lost in Katrina in mg area to flooding & I didn’t even live in the Soup Bowl.

From what I’ve seen, the outer bands are strengthening. They’re red at this point. This hurricane is getting stronger, and it’s well built. There are no winds to tear it apart. It’s eye is holding together, and that’s terrifying. A well built storm like this one can ruin lives. It’s not a joke.

Please, please stay safe. Evacuate ASAP if you’re in the direct line.

Don’t wait until it is here. That is how you get killed. Do not evacuate in the middle of it. Don’t wait until last minute.

It is always better to be safe than sorry.

Please stay safe.

Listen to the news. Follow their advice.

Leave while you still can, before the highways get clogged up. Go as far in-land as you can. Leave the state entirely if you have to.

We did. And we still felt the effects of Katrina.

Please, stay safe.

Stephanie sat down next to Octavia and held her face in her hands softly. It was clear Octavia was very worried about this, and no sooner did she say the words that Stephanie understood.

“Listen... You’re safe with me, okay? I need you to tell me what happened exactly, so I can help you.”

@acidcorrodes ( x )

     Blood smeared all over her hand. ‘Quick and easy job’ her boss said. Yeah, easy until someone gets caught and it’s either saving a friend or stack of money. Octavia couldn’t leave her partner behind. She would rather die along if that’s the final faith. Luckily, or not so luckily, she was given a handgun, just like any other heist she has been through. It was more to intimidate anyone rather than to cause harm. Everything happened in seconds, between the screaming, the cries, it all stopped after one single loud pop noise that echoed the room.

     It was the first time Octavia has ever shot someone. She walked towards the body, checking for any impulse: there was none. Last thing she could remember was the shouts telling her to hurry and leave the area.

     “He’s dead…” She mumbled, eyes glistening as she gazed up at Stephanie. A tear managed to escape. “I killed him.”

I’m not good at asking for help because I consider myself a prideful person, but there comes a time in life where you have to put that aside and admit that you need help. Recently, I lost my job. My partner and I are living off of his checks, but we are falling a bit behind due to my medication expenses. I make jewelry and soap as a hobby, and since I am not a person to just outright ask for money, I ask that you please take the time to look at my wares and see if you’d be interested in purchasing anything. Even a reblog would help immensely. Thank you all for taking the time to read this and I’m sorry for the shit graphic, I don’t really have a fancy computer right now and have to use the tablet.  I love you all, my inbox and IM’s are always open to anyone who needs an ear.  xoxo - Eri

"I fucked up this time..."

Stephanie sat down, frowning ever so slightly. "What do you mean? What happened?" She asked softly. She wasn't sure what was going on exactly, and that worried her. "Are you okay?"

[acidcorrodes]

He clenches his jaw, instantly pissed off that anyone would dare do that to her, let alone that Darien wouldn't defend her- but then, Darien wasn't Dmitry, and Dmitry didn't trust anyone to keep Violet safe except himself (even though he knew she didn't need it). "Oh, that's a load of shit, just quit, I'll get a job. Or hell, I'll get a job with you and anyone that even so much as looks at you wrong will pay, I swear, you're not a fucking toy for anyone and Darien can go fuck himself with a cactus, jerkass piece of shit idiot."

acidcorrodes:

He sighs, realizing pretty quickly that something must’ve set her off, aside from his general hopelessness. He could deal, right? Right. “Fine, I’ll put that on hold, don’t you worry, but you gotta tell me what’s going on, though,” he said while fishing a lighter from the depths of his pants’ pocket and handing it to her.

“Same fuckin’ shit!” She leaned in to press the tip of her cigarette to flame. “Look at this shit, an’ Darien thinks it’s all hunky fuckin’ dory when these pigs get handsy an’ he expects me to just stand there an’ get goosed! fuck that shit.” Hands raised to reveal scraped knuckles. “I’m quittin’, I swear ta’ fuck, I’m quittin’.”

“Dmitry, you literally make me wanna fucking—” she’s gotta take a deep breath, but it’s obvious by the way her knuckles are turning white that she’s.. aggravated. Today’s not the day. She’s had a shit day at work, almost getting fired yet again for throwing hands at the pigs at the club. And now this. She reaches into her back pocket and fishes out her pack of smokes, shaking hands placing a cigarette between her lips. “Just stop, okay? shit.”
