Hey yall dumb question
I'm trying to (re-)name a character. His brother's name is Ariolus and I was going for both of them being named after moons of Uranus. Any suggestions? Preferrably not starting with a vowel.
Or should I just use some other planet's moons

Hi! Can I get some advice on a new name for my character? Here's the link: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/309722956/

I feel like the name Lia is a bit too short and simple, idk.

it's not BAD LOLLL but an areolus is a pretty specific body part

sleepy and sleepless
maybe i've crossed that threshold
at the end of the evening tunnel
at the start of the night passage
from a timeless, half-dead stupor
into a frenzy of bursts and sparks

those conversations that run
through one ear and out the other
fade away and instead what i hear
is painted, heightened memories

i am no longer on a train
that's going to be half an hour late
but a bus under the sweltering heat
small windows welcoming sunburn
the loud silence of here gives way
to the peace of blaring beats from there

and it's not me drifting off to sleep
but some other familiar face
and although i'm taking up two seats
leaning against the window
i can feel the way i took up just half
sitting on the edge
the far edge

i laugh at the voice on the speaker
you laughed at my voice
and i wonder now if it was the same kind,
laughing at the botched train schedule
or laughing with a friend

you would never listen to the
bursts and sparks that erupt
from someone lost in the night passage
and frenzied from sheer exhaustion
but in the morning
maybe i will remember the bus
and wish the same thing from you

and by the way, that wasn't
the bus ride i got sunburnt on
because you sat in the window seat.

i was half asleep on the train last night but couldn't fall asleep bc uncomfortable & sick, so i wrote a poem
and i only write poems when someone makes me or i'm out of my mind lol
but yeah it's morning and i still think it's tolerable so here you go

sleepy and sleepless

just out of curiosity, how would you interpret what it all means? there's plenty of poetry that's like “i have no idea what you're trying to say but cool” and i want this to be at least kinda understandable, but not blunt. any other feedback appreciated even though i hardly ever poetry

edit: i would've posted this on a (redacted bc st doesn't like it) server where i know some poets but they might know who the person on the bus was and assume some things

What do you guys think of the name Fuwa for one of my characters? She's a repurposed boi design-wise but I didn't like her name, Flo. It's supposed to be like fuwafuwa, which is pretty much just fluffy/light in Japanese (yes, I know I'm a weeb). I tried other spellings but they didn't really make sense.

As Loki and the Avengers exited the Quin-jet Loki trailed behind has he usually did. But this time Cap also stuck to the back. They stopped side by side once they exited the ship. The jet flew off to the hangar leaving them both facing the mountains at the right of the avengers facility. At length Cap spoke. “I wanted to thank you…. Loki.” Those words sounded alien in his mouth. “For saving my life.” There was a pause as Loki chose his answer.
“You saved mine.” was the god of mischief’s reply.
Steve Rogers turned to face him. Loki almost caught his breath. At the super soldiers’ gaze, all the regular arrogance and playful swagger fell away. It was all he could do not to look away so intense was Caps’ blue eyed stare. Under his penetrating gaze, Loki immediately felt incredibly guilty for everything he’d done; even stuff Steve didn’t know he did. It seemed he knew all. He wanted to make it right again. Loki tried to shake it off. What in the world? This wasn’t him at all! What was it about Rogers that made a man so incredibly moral?
“Me and the team have been talking about this and-” he smiled and shook his head, freeing Loki
from his gaze for a few seconds. “In 2013 I never thought I’d be saying this.” the blue eyes locked back on to Loki again. “I’m thinking this is a decision we won’t regret.” There was silence. “You’re an Avenger.” Then he shook his hand, smiled, and turned and left a bewildered Loki alone with his thoughts.

Hey! I know the original creator isn’t really active anymore but I’ve been reading through this discussion and want to know if one of you guys will comment on my fanfiction. Personally I think it’s cringy and it’s going to go nowhere but oh well.

Tip of the day
Remember that a book is not a movie. Not every moment that plays out in your head like a movie will actually sound good on paper. Remember you can’t have different shots in a book, and if you try to write exactly what you see in the ‘shot’ it will sound awkward.
