Re: Bradbury's Jar 430
Since a big challenge (Amethyst's Exchange) was a hit, could you all do something with a smaller challenge...something like... gee, I dunno...maybe :eekdrool: :scared: :eekdrool: :scared: [size=4][b]RESPOND TO THE PROMPT![/b][/size] :eekdrool: :scared: :eekdrool: :scared: I know you can do it. I'm right here, cheering you on. :cheerleader2: Now, get you Muse warmed up, and start working on this: [size=4][b]Puzzle[/size][/b]

Re: Amethyst's Exchange Response #3
I love this one - the use of amethyst, the repetition of the girls insisting on the correct colour terms, Jinpei knowing exactly what kind of creature the Spectra mecha was built to resemble . . . and Jason's line about Zoltar wanting to be colour co-ordinated made me giggle.

Re: Bradbury's Jar 434
Okay, I guess this is my warm up for the Amethyst exchange. Bloom There it sat, a single bloom, in its simple white vase. Princess picked it up, for the umpteenth time, brought it to her nose and took in its delicate scent. Light, fragrant, taking her to a simpler time in her life, before she was the Swan. It was an unusual flower, not one she was familiar with. It had a deep violet hue and was streaked in lines of scarlet. Even more puzzling was who sent this beautiful flower? Mark? Jason? It seemed out of character for either of them. If it was one of them, neither gave a hint to having done it. She was taken by the mystery of it all, flattered that someone thought of her enough to give her such a striking flower. It had arrived at some point yesterday. She came in and found it sitting on her kitchen table. At the time the bud was mostly closed, but today it had opened up and reached its petals to the sun, displaying its colors like a proud peacock. Her curiosity finally got the better of her. Maybe if she knew what the flower was she would have a better idea of who sent it. Taking out her cell phone she hit the Google Lens button and took a picture of it. She held her breath as the results were quickly calculated. As she looked at the resulting images a mix of revulsion and fear ran through her, she let out a cry and threw her cell phone across the room in disbelief. According to Google, the flower was not of earth at all, but a native of Spectra.

Re: Attn: Gatchamania
[quote][i]Originally posted by jublke[/i] I think it's a great idea! Could we dedicate it to Amethyst?[/quote] Thats a lovely idea... I am flat out as usual with raising my 5 ninja's. (I have so much empathy for Nambu!) As long as its not expected to be full stories I think I can manage some short ones.

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
I look forward to reading what you've got, mylari! And, as for the offer to take the reigns if Amethyst can't next year, I gladly accept.* (I'm speaking for myself, though I'm sure the other Gatchamaniacs would feel the same.) [size=1]* As soon as the pandemic hit the US, I've been worried about Amethyst -- she developed some serious health issues a few years back that put her in the high-risk category, and she's in an area that's been consistently clobbered by COVID.[/size]

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
Okay, Katblu42 had a couple of questions I hadn't thought of: 1) Do we need a date to reveal who each gift was for? 2) Do we know if all participants posted gifts? As far as #1 goes, I simply assumed people would say, "Hey, that's mine!" :breakdance: So, how does Friday, December 11 sound for claiming gifts?* And #2...well, as far as I know, Amethyst is the only one who has the list of all the participants. ** All I can think of doing is putting out one last call and hope that, if any gifts are still floating around in the ether, they will be posted before we start claiming gifts. [size=1]* Assuming that everyone remembers the prompts they submitted, of course! ** I have to admit, though, that the number of gifts posted does seem a bit small to me. But I don't know how many signed up. So....[/size] Are there any other suggestions?

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
[quote][i]Originally posted by Katblu42[/i] I want to float an idea I've been sitting on for a while. I have been holding off and desperately hoping that Amethyst would pop in and tell us all she's okay. I don't want to step on anyone's toes, or overstep in any way. If everyone is agreeable I'd like to offer to distribute Gift Exchange gifts if I can. That would probably entail each participant sending me their prompt(s), and the gift they gave. Alternatively, we could all post our gifts without knowing who they are going to. We could then guess the recipient instead of the giver. Of course, I am also happy to wait for Amethyst's return. I'm continuing to hope and pray that Amethyst is safe and well.[/quote] Okay, I think we'd better act on this. Winter holidays (or summer, if you're in the southern hemisphere) are almost here, and I don't want our efforts in writing the stories to go to waste. I propose that we all post our gifts on November 27 in [b]The Writer's Block[/b] and have "2020 Gift from _____" in the subject line. Do you agree?

Re: BOLO Amethyst 2
I'll just come out and say it: I'm worried. Given all the issues Amethyst has had over the past few years, and given how this has been a Voldemort of a year, I think you can see why. So, could those of you who have a knack for finding fellow Gatchamaniacs please put your skills to work? Thanks.

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
I've been wondering too. I'm quite concerned for Amethyst. I hope she is okay.

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
I know there are much more important things happening out there right now, but I was wondering what was happening with the Gift Exchange. Has anyone heard from Amethyst since her last post here? I sent her a PM months ago, but I don't think she's been active on the sight at all since then. Has anyone had any contact with her through other channels? I hope Amethyst is okay.

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
I'll start posting in a few days. The time I set aside for this has been taken up making masks. However, I'm a little worried, I have not heard from one of our regulars... I'm hoping she is okay!

Re: 2020 Gatch Gift Exchange I & II
Gifts are due today. I know the world has been turned upside down, if you need a few extra days (or more), please give me a heads up.
