Dash

Part 2 of creating a short Fablehaven story using a single word prompt from a random word generator... I got ‘dash,’ hope you like it!

“’Thank you’ does not have a dash in it, Seth!” Kendra glared at her younger brother. She didn’t have to wait long for Seth to respond.

“Yes it does!”

“No, it doesn’t! And even if it did, blank tiles aren’t used for punctuation!” The small-but-fierce scrabble game in front of them only had a few words on it, and Seth had added a blank tile and the word ‘you’ onto ‘thank’ which Kendra had placed earlier.

“Fine, I’ll make the blank tile a space mark!” Seth snapped. “But either way I’m getting my triple word!”

“A space would be considered punctuation, too!” Kendra threw her hands into the air in annoyance. “Do you not understand how to play this game!?”

“I do, actually.”

“Prove it!” Kendra jabbed her finger at him, as Seth cleared his throat.

“Scrabble is a board game, where the aim is to create words using tiles, and getting points by placing certain tiles or getting certain bonuses. A player is only allowed to have seven tiles at a time, and must replace any tiles that they place. You can only build off an already existing word, and wherever the tiles are touching, a legitimate word must exist.” Seth bowed.

“That is an explanation of how to play, Seth! Not proving anything except that you know the basic rules! Everyone knows those rules, and its the ones you didn’t cover that you need to understand!” Kendra reached over to the couch behind her, grabbed a pillow, and screamed into it.

“You asked me if I knew how to play. I demonstrated that I know the rules. Therefore, I have proven myself!”

“Did you swallow a dictionary? Ugh, I hate lawyer Seth mode.”

“Don’t we all?” Kendra jumped in surprise, turning around to look the the doorway where Bracken was leaning, grinning.

“Bracken! Can you please help to settle this?” Kendra went and explained what was happening to the Unicorn, who came over and sat next to Kendra with his arm around her.

“Sorry, Kens, but I think that Seth wins the do-you-know-how-to-play argument here. But Seth, your sister is correct about the blank tile. It can’t be used as punctuation.” Bracken thought for a moment. “Do you have the letters ‘I’ ‘N’ ‘G’ instead? Put them at the end, and you can still get your bonus.”

“Yes! Thanks horse-man!” Seth shouted, pumping his fists into the air.

“Horse-man?” Poor Bracken looked so confused, Kendra couldn’t help but laugh. Soon, Seth joined in, and even Bracken managed a slightly confused smile.

“I think it’s Seth’s new nickname for you.” Kendra explained. Bracken nodded in understanding.

“I got that much, I just don’t understand where it come from. Seth, you deeply confuse me sometimes.”

“Hey!” Seth grinned and picked up the pillow he was sitting on, flinging it at Bracken.

“This means war!” Kendra jumped to her boyfriend’s defense. Half an hour later, the biggest pillow fight in Sorenson living room history was still going strong, and the scrabble game lay forgotten on the floor.

I don’t know why or how, but I found this photo... AND IT REMINDS ME SO MUCH OF SHIARA!

Honestly though, I love her so much... she’s so level headed!

This... this is... is just... I don’t have words- I love this so much! It’s amazing!

Ronodin & Bracken

I tried to make Ronodin look appropriately young. He’s supposed to be 17/18 physically, despite what the trailers would have you believe. As for Bracken, I thought it would be a good challenge to draw someone as glowing as him.
