as a writer you will have a specific deck of vocab words you like using a lot and when you read other peoples' work you will see a very clear spread of different vocab words on their end. this is why you need to read, to collect other writers' words like it's a card game

Grace showing up to Erid starving, discombobulated, and with every disease known to man is hilarious in a morbid way because I’m just imagine Rocky shows up like “this is my alien friend!

Good luck Eridian doctors!”

I need Rocky to be soo weird by eridian standards by the time he meets Grace. buddy is not okay in the slightest. 46 years of solitary confinement with 22 corpses for company.

"Idiots," I say, referring to the characters I have spent hundreds of my real life hours contemplating.
