Jenny and I have recently gotten back into the scifi/fantsty-ish collab we concocted a while ago, so I did a tiny bit of writing for it. I'm giddy over this collab right now.
So you know I love this because THEY R OUR PIRATES. Hahaha, Reno's incredible patience with Scrim's verbosity is still my most fevorite part. Reno's character comes across SO strongly here. I need part two like burningI like the descriptions of all three of them but I think maybe you could spread them out a bit more. Like after Reno's paragraph, have him talk to Scrim, then give Scrim's response and use that as an opportunity to talk about Scrim, and same with Boruk when he enters the conversation. That way things are accelerating forward while we get the descriptions instead of having them all at once, which sort of makes it feel like things don't move until they're out of the way. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? I know I have a beastly time working character descriptions into writing (I think I've been frightened into thinking ANY kills the pace) and a lot of times I end up on the anemic side. I mean there was absolutely NOTHING in the Juti bit I just wrote. Somewhere between the both of us there is a happy medium
