Conversations with Characters
Selenda: So, you've decided to make things worse for me. When you said you'd hit the ground running, I should have known I would have to start running to.
Nicki T.: Hey!
Aiden: Selenda, that's not fair. It makes you special.
Selenda: So being a wanderer without any friends or relatives didn't make me 'special' enough?
Nicki T.: I made you special for a reason.
Zora: Seems to me that ever way you make her 'special' also is a way of making things worse for her.
Nicki T.: Who's side are you on here?
Zora: Selenda's.
Nicki T. *groans*: Ivar? Can you help me out here?
Ivar: I don't know. You do tend to make things as bad as you can for her. And the rest of us too.
Nicki T.: She won't regret it.
Selenda: Are you sure? I'm regretting it already! I'm considering just giving it up!!!!
Nicki T.: Sorry. You're not in charge here. I am. And I already made the decision.
Selenda: ARG!
Nicki T.: That was out of character.
Aiden: Maybe you shouldn't. I mean, weren't all the things you did already enough?
Nicki T.: ARG! I'm in charge here! Not you! And I can do whatever I want to my characters! You're all in the realm of my imagination. NONE OF YOU ARE REAL!
Selenda: That was in character.
*Nicki T. grabs Selenda's arm*
Nicki T.: Would you just put UP with what I put you into! You won't regret it.
Selenda: That wasn't out of character either.
Nicki T. *grits her teeth*: I have a limit to my patience, and you are going to overstep it any moment.
Zora: Really? Where is it?
Nicki T.: You're standing on it. All of you.
Nicki T.: Hey!
Aiden: Selenda, that's not fair. It makes you special.

Potter Puppet Pals: The Mysterious Ticking Noise
A friend showed this to me while I was in Newfoundland. Ha ha ha ha!!!!
I'm Back!!!
Selenda: You did work with us while you were gone. I am impressed.
Nicki T.: Really?
Selenda: And I should have known you would invent a new character.
Zora: So, what's his name?
Ivar: Boy or girl?
Nicki T.: Boy.
Selenda: What name did you pick?
Nicki T.: His name is Aiden. And you are going to be very close to him, Selenda.
Selenda: Let me guess... he is not around at the end of the story?
Nicki T.: You're catching on fast.
Selenda *groans*: Where is he?
*Knock sounds on door. Nicki T. gets up and answers it*
Aiden: Did I miss anything?
Nicki T.: Not really.
Selenda: So, you're another one of Nicki's inventions.
Aiden: I guess I am at that.
Selenda: Or should I say victims?
Nicki T.: Hey, I'm in charge here.
Selenda: Why can you not just give me a happy existence involving my staying at home until I am old enough to be betrothed?
Nicki T.: Because that would be incredibly boring. After you're through with this, you'll thank me.
Zora: I'm sure.
Nicki T.: Really?
Selenda: And I should have known you would invent a new character.
Zora: So, what's his name?
Ivar: Boy or girl?
Nicki T.: Boy.

Conversations with NEW Characters
Zora: So... you're abandoning us already?
Nicki T.: Don't even start. I'm not abandoning you. I'm just going to be away for a while.
Zora: Why are you leaving in the first place?
Nicki T.: Because I've been looking forward to this trip all year, and it would take a lot more than you to keep me from taking it. And besides, you're coming with me on the trip... sort of. I'm going to work on your plot while I'm gone so when I get back I'll hit the ground running.
Zora: Yes, or you'll get a new idea and forget about us.
Ivar: Do you honestly think she'd do that?
*Zora stares Ivar straight in the eye*
Ivar: Oh.
Nicki T.: Ouch.
Selenda: Zora, if you make her angry, she's not going to make your life any easier.
Zora: And if I keep quiet, she won't make mine easier, either. How's your arm, by the way, Selenda?
(Selenda recently injured her arm in the story.)
Selenda: It's fine. It's not infected.
Nicki T.: If you want I could -
Selenda: If you want, I could flatly refuse to go with the story goal.
Nicki T.: Point taken.
After Tuesday, I won't be posting for a while. I'm going on a trip to Newfoundland. So, in case I don't post again before that, just letting you know.
Nicki T.: Don't even start. I'm not abandoning you. I'm just going to be away for a while.
