Silakbo Afterthoughts | III
Nightmares to Life
Mathieu Williams
YEEEEEEEEEEt I'm done with Matt! Here you guys go! I only have Ollie and Luciano left! More like Ollie, because I already have written some parts on Luciano's hihi Anyways;
Here are some of the things that I wanted to shine some spotlight on;
- I updated this part of the series way against my rules of "i'LL bE uPDAtINg ThE SilAKBo SeRieS EvERy 1:43 PM" but I'm putting it up anyways, because it's one of my favorites in this series lololololololol I could hardly wait for it (Need me some tips from Burr then--coUGh)
- I apologize for being meme-y, it's late and I haven't slept well lmao
- Silakbo in Tagalog means a sudden outburst of any emotion
- I chose the title "Nightmares to Life" because as y'all would recall in Scenario # 14 : Everything's Gonna Be Alright where he has a nightmare, he dreamed about (Y/N) falling off a bridge. Originally, that was meant to be a dream about (Y/N) committing suicide, but then I was like "Y'know what would hurt more?" MWAHAHAHHA I found it brilliant to have (Y/N) fall off a bridge but because of a different note. So, Matt realizes that his dream didn't have to mean suicide. (Y/N)'s death was an unfortunate accident caused by ill intentions.
- I had trouble with the part where Matt pulls (Y/N) out of the water, because I initially planned on having (Y/N) die from drowning beneath the ice. I was quick to make an even angstier outcome though.
- I learned a shit ton about the thawing of ice in this. What happened to (Y/N) was a case of falling in an under-ice melted river. The waters beneath the ice still moves with a current and the ice that covered the river for this scenario was about 2 inches, which is a layer of ice that cannot support human weight. The more you know~
- I really wanted to diversify the settings a little and not just have everything happen in the countries' capital cities.
- I chose the Yukon Territory for Mathieu Williams, because Yukon is a place far from the popular cities, which is reasonable because Matt is quite reserved and close to nature. I can imagine that this is a place where Matt would stay in. Also, I just read To Build A Fire by Jack London last month so I was like teehee.
- I added dates to the story for numerous reasons. First of all, it made everything more dramatic (lol). Another would be the fact that it helped me organize everything. I had to think about the entire plot because of this, which was a good thing because I got to improve everything. I learned a lot of things along the way, too. I also wanted to shine some light on how it can take very little time to take something that took so long develop. Did that make sense? Also, Character Development.
- I started this scenarios book in 2016, but my-dumbass-self wrote the plot to revolve around three years of relationship shit, instead of two. So, I had to improvise. Y'all have been together since 2015 from this point on.
