Interactive story!! (plus brief update)
14 years ago
hey folks. Boy, i kinda let this group go unattended to for a little too long, back on track now. As you can see,
knifesharpener has his drawing as our profile pic now because you all voted it ^^.
And now for the main event, another member and i have thought up of a way to get back into the spirit of what the group is all about, and that way is by starting an interactive story (obviously featuring the theme to which the group is based off of). The rules are simple:
-each person writes only one paragraph at a time
-keep the same story flowing (obviously)
-dont leave "choices" or "split paths" at the end of your paragraph. This is not writing.com
-keep everything tasteful and relevant. Remember what this group is all about ^^
-have fun
-any character is allowed. just make sure you specify (IN BRACKETS) where they came from.
This story will start on THIS journal. once its posted.
One final rule...please for the love of god dont comment on this journal, and dont post anything irrelevant. Only post a paragraph for the story. (if you have a question for me,
sherwoodboy, make sure to enclose it in brackets next to your paragraph)

Carter paced up the sidewalk on a lazy Sunday morning. He was heading into town to see if he could find something to do. However, town seemed the same to him every time he went. He stopped and thought to himself how he wished something interesting would happen, anything at all. Suddenly, in his peripheral vision, he noticed a gumball machine. He approached it and looked at the deckle on the glass shielding the many balls.
"Get the black Gum ball and you can spend the day with 1 popular male and 1 popular female of your choice! Don't shy away, it's a once in a lifetime experience!" Carter was instantly intrigued by this. Imagining the fact that he could spend the day with ANY of them, Baloo, pumbaa, sylvester, renamon, Krystal (just to name a few) sent shivers of enthusiasm down his spine. He looked into the glass container, but could not see a black gumball anywhere, not one.
"Maybe there IS only one," he thought. The price was only a quarter, and there must have been over 1000 gumballs still in the thing, but Carter was determined. He popped a quarter into the machine and turned. He heard the clique of the ball behind the silver guard and quickly snatched forward to look in. Sure enough, there it was, the black gumball. Carter could not believe his luck, he did a little dance in celebration, he was set for this day, but who could he pick? He looked at the gumball closer, it had the address he was to go to claim his prize "23 Water St". He started walking there right away with the happiest of feelings and biggest of smiles.
" This is going to be sweet! I cannot wait for this!" Carter thought, then stopped and pondered to himself, "I wonder if I have to specify that I like belly Growls." He shrugged, and continued to the address marked on the gumball...

Carter drooled a little, there were definitely characters he really wanted to hang with in this list. However, predictable enough, he was going to have a hard time choosing just one of these characters. "That is the list sir. These are the characters you have to choose from." She said to Carter, who looked and gave her an expression of panic as he had no idea who he was going to pick. She laughed. "Relax mister. You have all the time in the world to make your decision. Plus, if there is someone you don't see in the list that you wanted there, then let us know. THis is just a list of who confirmed so far...."
