Today's #Scifi #fantasy flash fiction #EmotionalFlowchart

“What's that, Lassie? Timmy's fallen down a well?”
The Grim Reaper*



      Went to my writers meeting today. It was quite fun. I may be the next one work shopped depends on whether or not someone else pulls something in and if I can get a certain short story done(not one of these flash fictions but a short story that involves my book. I can't get too specific, but I may make a short story to show the concept to the other writers in my club for their opinion and to explore my concept before I write the actual book. It's a good way of getting other people's input and such early in the planning stages and such.)
       My friend CJ may also be coming over this weekend so yay!



Emotional Flowchart

        Mrs. Lovestar the Guardian Fairy gave her young fairy pupils the assignment of graphing out the emotions of the young human girl Carol. It was a short assignment as it was only graphing out the emotions over the time of her crush on a boy in her class named Simon. Graphing emotions was one of the most important things for fairies to learn. Without doing so how could quickly exchange information on human social situations with other fairies? And without doing that fairies couldn't work together to make humans happier with their magic powers and fairy dust and whole world would fall apart. So after following her invisibly around school for several weeks and using their powers to read the feelings in her Soul the students made their flow charts of Carol's crush on Simon. Below is the flow chart made by young fairy Sammy Brightlight, one of the top students of the class. The chart got an A(though still the quality of work expected of a child fairy)

Meets Simon--> Unsure ---> Whishy-whashy---> Buttery-flies in tummy
[Go to Wishy-washy if Bobby hits on Carol for a day. If she doesn't go to Buttery-flies in tummy until week 2]
Starts getting into him(Does that thing where she giggles for no reason)---> Enters basic crush.
Simon notices her and flirts---> Carol enters full on crush
Begin Date Cycle #3 (From Ch.3)

      Sammy Brightlight did get marked off for not describing the date cycle(the instructions did say to describe the crush, not say which part of the book it was from) otherwise the flowchart did fit the basic shape expected of their grade level. The rest of the class did well too, and she expected that with a few more lessons her students would be making much better and more complex emotional flow charts.
