((Not the best, considering I'm having to invent my context on the fly...It'll probably come across as a bad scary movie, but eh.))
Had to keep running, he had to keep running! He hadn't seen what it was...But...The scene that...That thing had left behind in its wake...He had to get out of here! A sound to the left...Oh, crap...It was here!? He paused, backing away from the sound and shaking his head. It couldn't end like this...! Oh, god, it was coming...for him! It felt like someone had dropped his stomach into the arctic...Dimly, he thought about how he had to run, fight...Do something other than stand here and let this monster kill him...but, no matter how much he screamed mentally to do something...ANYTHING...His body just didn't respond now...It was getting closer, he had to run, scream, something...But it was like he'd turned to stone, unable to do anything but watch as it got closer and closer, raising one arm to strike at him...
((H'okay, time for a breather. How about... heart to raise the mood a bit?))

"Okay everyone pair up with your assigned partners." The dull droll of the teacher's command sent everyone into action with loud scraps of chairs sliding against the floor and desks being pushed together. He looked up nervously in time to watch her as she with her angelic smile and heavenly looks walked across the room in what seemed like slow motion. He didn't know if he should be happy that his crush for the past two years was paired as his science partner or if he should be cursing it. What if he made a fool of himself? She was another step closer. What if he stuttered? Another step. What if she found out that he had dreamed of them being together even went as far as to write out her name with his sur name, named their children, picked out a house and even thought of what kind of dog they would get? Another step. What if he blurted out how he loved the color of her hair? The way her eyes shinned in the light when she smiled and how perfect her teeth looked. His heart that was racing moments before from nervousness was now beating strongly for another reason. Her scent, her skin, the cute way she tugged on her right ear when nervous, he really loved that. She paused to bend down picking up a dropped pencil of a classmate and giving it back to them and he sighed, and she was nice to boot. And he would get to be with her for two whole weeks for this assignment. "Hi!" She said to him cheerfully as he approached, the word barely audible over the thundering sound of his heart beating. Yeah it was a good thing. Next up

(oh dear I'm trying to do something)
The 12 year-old felt his eye twitch, as his father spoke in great detail. twitch, twitch. Allen didn't want to know this from his father he got the idea, he didn't need the details.
"...And that son is how you please a woman. Now for Gay sex or how to please a man..."
Allen couldn't do it, he ran for his mother, he didn't need to know that much about his father. Ever.
( now for pirate )

{{I guess I'll try my hand at it...I hope this is ok}}
The man looked at the boy before him, suggesting crazy things. He felt a bit of annoyance peak as he spoke, listening and saying nothing. How dare he think that about him? He would never lead his crew into a bad spot! This boy though, nervous and stuttering, seemed to think that he, a great captain, would actually be going the wrong way.
"And so, I know you're a great captain, b-but, y-you see. I-," he started, but this was when he had enough. He cut him off, standing up.
"I am a great captain! I would never lead us into a bad spot!" he almost roared, and thus laughed a whole hearted, outrageous laugh. "Ha ha ha ha! I am great!" he yelled. Each ha was pronounced in a way the boy was beginning to get a bit scared of him.
Um, next?: talk2hand

(Just for future reference, Nuphar, the exercise is more about description than the story around the event, and part of the exercise is to avoid using the emote or prompt word given.)

((ok I hope I do this right.))
She looked away from her friend, she didn't want to hear it. She'd heard his excuses a million times before and not only from him.
"come on Jane it wasn't any thing serious just some pot." Last time he had said it was 'just a smoke' who knew what else he would get himself into. She had just found out her Uncle was on oxygen and dying from 'just a smoke' and another friend was in jail for drugs. It may have been 'just whatever' but she didn't care. She was tired of trying to explain things he wouldn't seem to understand. She turned to walk away. "are you still mad at me? please don't be." She just shrugged away and said "I'll talk to you later, maybe, I just need to think" and walked away.
(next... blaugh ?)

(My attempt at it, and my first post in this guild. Hello everyone! *waves*)
The boredom was killing me. It was a Saturday afternoon, and I had nothing to do. James was out of town with his family for some fishing trip, and Jessie was sick with the flu, which left me with sitting at home with my friend "Cable TV".
I was flipping through the channels one by one. The story of Hitler? Click. Mating habits of the dolphins? click. Soap opera complete with murder, broken hearts, betrayl, and budding romances? Click.
Nothing good was on, and I was about to give up, until a stand-up comedian was on the screen. I say to myself, "Eh, beats dolphins or soap operas," continuing to watch the program. Much to my surprise, he was pretty damn funny! Of course, it wasn't something that made me "burst out laughing", as per usual with most stand up comedians.
Then I heard the joke. The man had said, " Y'know, with fat people, there are 5 stages of fatness. There's big, healthy, fluffy, husky, and DAYUM!!! "
It was then I proceeded to begin laughing as hard as I could ever remember laughing. My sides hurt so bad that I had to hold them, and eventually I was on the ground, almost crying because of the laughter escaping my mouth.
( tis the end. I know I kind ripped off of a comedian, but... I figured might as well. Next emotion is.... stare )

She had indeed heard his previous statement, but she still refrained from replying. Her eye lids were held close, and her eyes were looking to the extreme right before her head slowly turned to follow her gaze. Her body and feet turned slightly, just enough that her head could comfortably turn enough that her eyes could see his. She waited one long, slow breath before her lips parted and her delayed response glided from between them.
"Shut the hell up." Those were the words she had chosen; the response that had taken those unending seconds to form. By the time the words hit him, she had already walked several paces away.
((Mischievous grin)))

The thought pleased him, but he held his face placid as he lifted his head and brought it down in a short nod. It wasn't until after he had turned and walked through the doors that the emotion was allowed to seep through the facade. His expression softened, allowing subtle movement of his features. They morphed gradually, piece by piece; the right corner of his mouth twitched and stretched upward as his brow relaxed to leave his gaze less harsh. His plump lips pulled apart, sticking together at first, but finally parting to show his top teeth. Yes, this would work just perfectly . . .
(laugh)

Akemi_Nevaeh Could somebody help me out? I've been having trouble describing the emotion of 'frustration.' Any examples or tips I could learn from? Grinding teeth, pulling hair, clenching fists, exasperated sighs are all good for describing frustration. You could expand on any of them as well. Awesome Gabriel Iglesias reference 3nodding he's one of my favorites. You've stumped me again, I'm not sure how to describe that without actually using the word

I'll use it when trying to describe the frustration of being hungry and not being able to find food even as the smell of it hung in the air. XD

Oden's face shifted into a gleaming grin. As his lips parted, his voice boomed with joy. His chest heaving repeatedly with the force of the air rushing into his lungs, and back out just as quickly. "You did well my son. You've made your old man proud." next up: neutral

The girl was admittedly surprised when one of the two friends fighting in front of her, turned to her and said, "What do you think Steph?" The girl, Stephanie, had been trying to tune out her best guy friend and one of her best friends while they were fighting. "First I want you to each tell me your side of the story, without interrupting the other, calmly and in a way that won't damage my ear drums," she replied. Destin relayed to her first, his side of the story, in the manner that she had asked for it. When he was finished Rachel told hers. Stephanie thought for a moment before replying with an even tone. "You're both right," she said before getting up and walking away, no shrug of her shoulders, no expression on her face what-so-ever.
next: twisted
