Because we're talking about their hearts. What does Sora have to do with that?
This is possibly the weirdest thing I've made, but I thought I'd throw up a hail mary. It's actually a two-parter; they're meant to be used together, but of course it's up to you how you use them. Spoiler Source here.
I'm diggin' the colors, nice mix of bright and muted. Only thing I'd say is to offset the centered avatars, as they look a little sterile as they are. And I'd play with the lighting on #3 for the same reason, lot of focus on the center of the image. Can I ask you what texture you used for this? I need to find more that I like.
Hmm... Yeah, I could go for that. Especially the critique stipulation. It ensures that somebody learns something each time. So does it work the other way? Could people just post a critique, or would a story then be mandatory?
Good, you've done your homework ;D
Ooh, sounds entertaining. Glad you've thought it through~
I think it would, but it's not the only option. You might try House of Leaves for mark-up reference; it's an absolute labyrinth of a book, but there are many different ideas you could use by themselves in a simpler style. Switching typefaces, huh? Could work out, but lemme ask you this: What purpose does it serve in the story?
And when I say children, I mean at or under 13. Have you ever tried it? Do you have any references, quotes, or guidelines that you live by in the effort? When I think of children, I think of slightly simpler adults. Smaller vocabulary, less articulate, but otherwise mostly the same; after all, kids emulate adults because they think we're cool. No matter how dreamy or carefree the child, in all likelihood there's a version of that some fifteen years older which can be used to inspire the character.
Hm... You could switch between media. One news article, one letter, or whatever distribution makes sense. You could also have your protag mark up the articles with her own comments and input.
Morning again. The ninth day. As you make your way to the foyer, you're determined to keep a brave face in front of the latest victim, but seeing just who it is gives you all pause. Bite the Dust has been murdered. He was Millie Townsend, maid, head nurse and close friend to the Crowninshield family. As the first to discover the late Miss Lucille's fate he was well and quite spooked, but nevertheless saw to the others' needs until his dying breath. He was the Town Doctor, and could protect a player from harm once per Night. Tears well up in your eyes as you lay the saintly Miss Townsend to rest—but shortly after, your expressions harden. This is it. The final stretch. There will be no surprises from here on out. It's last man standing. D A Y • N I N E With 6 players alive, it takes 3 to lynch. Since we are knee-deep in endgame, soft lynch is no longer a factor. Day ends Tuesday, May 27th, 8:00 P.M. (GMT-5). Remember that the Town is still on the verge of defeat; a mislynch will result in the Mafia's victory. Finally, TheWorldThatNeverWas will be replacing Princess ♥. @Reid @luminous @Judge Sunrose @TheWorldThatNeverWas @Cstar @Marushi

...I have no idea how that relates. You're only losing me more and more man.
YOU'RE NOT STARTING TO CARE, ARE YOU?
He might've developed faster than the others since he spent the most time around Roxas, who had his heart. Easier to mimick emotions until they fill themselves in. I know that's what you're saying. It's what I'm questioning. What about their behavior makes it so obvious? Because I don't see it.
It's called The Chaos, by Gerard Nolst Trenité, and it's a BEAST. Really shows how nutty the language can be. NOTE TO THOSE STILL LEARNING ENGLISH: This is an awful way to learn, so take it with a grain of salt. Many of the words are archaic and not all of them still rhyme in American English. It's mostly a bonus exercise for those who feel themselves fluent already.

HAH, beautiful. He makes a good Let's Player. Not to mention he really makes it look like GTA with hacking.
Musou* I totally get that. I play both, but I play them for different reasons. Musou games are very much the "Turn your brain off" variety of action, whereas CAGs are a test of skill. That said the newer ones are pretty damn tough, enemies are less prone to sitting around waiting for you to slaughter them and officers have a wider variety of techniques at their disposal.
I'm down. Poor Prems need something nice for themselves, and like Misty said it'd help keep track of 'em.
