Let's see... a challenge! Let's do an acrostic for the character in my comic with the longest name: Stutland Tiberius Hickock Baker.

Surly
Tries to sell expired baguettes
Underhanded at every opportunity
Two jobs keep him very busy
Left the IRA to become a franchisee
Always ready with an insult
Never reveals shady details from his past
Doing battle with a Little League team is a valiant endeavor

Throat punched the mayor of Austin on a dare
I wouldn't look at him funny if I were you
Born in Northern Ireland
Eyebrows that just won't quit
Rocks a quality combover
Ice cream is never on sale in his establishment
Universally feared by his employees
Say, maybe I bit off more than I can chew...

Help!
I'm running out of relevant character information
Calligraphy is a manly pursuit
Kangaroos. Yes, that should do nicely.
Only becomes pleasant when inebriated
Children are evil in his humble opinion
Kangaroos again

But how do I still have another name to do?
Argh!
Kangaroos are pulling triple duty today
Enough of this!
Real talk, I gave up like ten letters ago

My MC’s current state of mind

G ot a lot on my plate right now
E veryone lies
N o clue what’s going on
I s it supposed to do that
I should have gone to school

I’ll invite the following to procrastinate too:

@aqua03 @DualDragons @Chita @Lunar-Turtle

DualDragons 2021-01-09 12:41:54 UTC #18

A rash sorcerer who uses fire
Not hindered by a clever mind, aka he is kinda stupid
Driven by the desire to save his dad
Racing across the country before the darkness takes over
Everyone either amazed, terrified or perplexed by his powers and drive
Who's the sorcerer of the tall tale, you may ask? Just read the letters.

I'm gonna tag @Kiweevil for this one

ivanskilling 2021-01-09 13:36:47 UTC #19

Did a quick one!

S talking can't possibly be a crime
A fter all, it is his favorite pastime
N o one can steal his love away
D ear Sandra was his to stay
R uin her - there would be hell to pay
A nd no one would suspect foul play

That's a nice one ! searching for spoilers to the story

I'm not really a writer, so i did my best... (Don't be to harsh, english isn't my first langage )
It's a bit of a spoiler, but i think i hope it somehow cryptic enough... ^^'

A ghost that's what i am.
Lies and murder on my way.
Exiled and on the run, i'll never let you catch me.
X was where i should've stab you to be free.
Instead i turned my back on you to hide.
Never again, now my eyes are open wide.
A ghost that's what i am.

And i tag @oshirockingham @silverraven0 @rmdooley and @snowy

So I take the rhyme and threw it on the ground.

Jiro,
Oh, bring me
Another chocolate.
No, don't use my sword.
Every fool thinks,
That I can't move on.
They have no idea on what I've been through.
End of story.

oshirockingham 2021-01-09 18:59:02 UTC #22

Here's Axelott.

Ah, maybe a
Xylophonist?
Every time I try to
Look into this engraved ring,
Only riddles and more questions I got.
Time shall tell the truth, the meaning,
The engraved name, Joanette.

And here's Nicola

Nothing is ever free.
I learned early how cruel the world can be.
Come and join me for one dance.
Oh my dearest, just give me one last chance.
Let's burn it all to the ground and have some fun.
After all you're now my favorite gun.

Chita 2021-01-09 20:40:57 UTC #25

@Legendofgenii Oh god I have no clue about poetry, even less in English
Feel the fire in my veins
Lifting dust on my way up
Ain't no queen but I do reign
Rising above an unknown past
End of loss is near at last

Since MC's name is only three letters, I decided to make a haiku:

Impressed by such strength
Repulsed by the beast inside
Aching for her love.

Simple, kinda weak, but it is what it is.

Religion.
Oh my!

AilyneGouveia 2021-01-10 11:30:38 UTC #31

I can just agree with him ! Oh no, does that mean i'm like him ? XD

oshirockingham 2021-01-10 11:40:54 UTC #32

Hahahaha maybe Jiro is your spirit animal in my comic

silverraven0 2021-01-10 13:50:47 UTC #33

Lost on the depth of night
I walked the path of loneliness
As the sun light begin to shine
My steps end on the door of the future

Into the path I go
Alone in my way
Never to be seen again.

Well, this goes dark when I added Ian.

I dont know who to tag so I'll tag @AilyneGouveia again and @minerrale if you're here.
