Hello, I just read Apotheosis/World_and_lore and really liked it. Are you still working on it? I made a small edit on what I believe was a typo, sorry if it wasn't.
Edit: Also, did you create the maps yourself? What software did you use? -- Imperial (talk) 02:47, 11 June 2019 (CEST)
Heya, I'm actually surprised to see a reply so soon. I saw your last contribution as being from May and thought it might take a month or two before you came back. I guess you lurk around just reading other people's stories?
And yes, I actually saw that list and messaged them all, haha. I guess that was overkill but I'm used to somewhat more active Wikis, I wasn't aware people were using the forums for those stories.
Thanks for the tips. -- Imperial (talk) 12:10, 11 June 2019 (CEST)

I just finished reading Journals of Skyrim and really enjoyed it. Please keep going! After reading yours, I'm considering writing one of my own, but making it lore friendly is quite time intensive. --Hgcollins (talk) 06:07, 7 October 2020 (CEST)
Yeah, I just started a new play-through yesterday and got a few new mods. It's too bad all the required Mods for the Estrus Chaurus aren't available anymore. I wasn't too sure about it at first, but I think it kind of adds a nice touch to your story. I may just end up writing it into mine but I haven't decided yet. I'd hate to make it too similar to yours, so I might just end up doing my own thing. It's crazy how many ideas I've gotten for the Journal just by random things that have happened while I've been playing, though. I think the first journal should be fairly easy to finish up since it's just going to set up the story. But let me know if I mess something up and feel free to correct any errors. I'm still getting used to how this site works. (case in point: editing because I forgot to add my signature.) --Hgcollins (talk) 00:19, 8 October 2020 (CEST)
Thanks, I saw that last night. I liked the idea, so I'll probably start going through and doing that. I'll let you know if I have any questions.
If you find any typos, feel free to fix them. The last few additions I've made have been literal first drafts as I've gone back to make additions to the timeline, so another set of eyes is always helpful. --Hgcollins (talk) 18:00, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

I’ve been meaning to tell you, I really like the whole Vampire twist with Henriette’s mother. Also, I’ve always felt like Benor is an underrated Skyrim character. He’s way more personable than the main guy in that vampire quest. I’m a fan of Morthal against all odds even though it kind of sucks. I downloaded a mod to rebuild the burned down house and I usually make Morthal my home. It’s Benor and the Jarl Ravencrone that do it for me, I think. She’s definitely my favorite Jarl. A little strange, but just strange enough to be really interesting. It’s a shame they didn’t do more with her character, honestly. I think there is some cut content of her, though. --Hgcollins (talk) 07:20, 17 December 2021 (CET)

Sometimes I wish I could replay Skyrim again for the first few times. There’s definitely a point when you start to see so much more potential. The civil war especially although that quest line is so bugged as it is, I see why they couldn’t make it work how they wanted to. Not that I really have much right to complain, though. It’s really the only game I’ve ever been super obsessed with. I played Oblivion and I’ll probably get into Morrowind one of these days. That’s what mods are for, I guess. Speaking of that, if you haven’t played the Bruma Beyond Skyrim Mod, I highly recommend it. --Hgcollins (talk) 17:15, 17 December 2021 (CET)
Oh yeah, I downloaded some graphics mods and tried to start Morrowind once. I know if I stuck with it I’d love it, but it definitely hasn’t aged well that’s for sure.

Do you mind if i delete all the extra stuff we talk about on the discussion thread on that page we been discussing lately like some of the things like me sleeping badly and me askign permission or shit like that, that is clustering the page it looks a lot bigger than it has to be. p.s. I'm just gonna do it tell me if you want it differently or revert it back later --Xephion (talk) 21:44, 29 September 2022 (CEST)

I added a template for Stella. She probably already has too many but she really needed a fun one! --Villenia (talk) 20:49, 6 October 2022 (CEST)
You can delete that one, no worries. Wasn't sure if it was quite right but figured I'd upload to see if it would work. I totally know what you're going for, I was just looking for something that better matched the other images as the original really stands out to me and makes her look odd. There are a couple of other options I might try, but no qualms or hurt feelings with deleting this one or any other attempts if I fail again. Don't feel obligated to add it, I'm not looking for more. Too many options feels overwhelming! And if I can't find the perfect replacement for this one then that's fine too! --Villenia (talk) 05:50, 15 October 2022 (CEST)
Hopefully found a better HeidiC template pic. More in line with contemplation, apprehension, with a tinge of inappropriate thoughts. Wasn't sure about the framing/cropping, but hopefully this is a better fit! --Villenia (talk) 04:19, 18 October 2022 (CEST)
As a writer's guide that's useful, but I'd rather explore and develop the characters through the story than try to summarize them. In a format like this especially, where there are so many branches, a single character could act very differently in a similar situation simply due to how they got there, so I wouldn't want to pigeonhole them with a one-dimensional list. So where Emilia might balk at the idea of someone wanting to pee on her in almost any scenario, such an offer after the diamond branch with Sven might be welcomed. I also think it's more rewarding for the reader (and sometimes the writer!) to discover things about a character as events unfold than it is in a context-less point form list. Although I can appreciate where you're coming from, presumably from a consistency standpoint, so that writers who might come in later don't "betray" the intention or essence of a character. But to be honest I think the existing cast page already does a reasonable job.
In short if you're interested in doing it either way I'm happy to provide feedback, but it's not something I'm personally interested in. But I look forward to your next branch as always! Curious if you intended to explore further where Emilia gets picked up by the teachers. I had half of an idea for that if you didn't! --Villenia (talk) 08:37, 18 October 2022 (CEST)
Well then I might just circle back to the teachers path at some point. So many paths! --Villenia (talk) 05:36, 19 October 2022 (CEST)
