Hey Pandas, Do You Write, And If So, Would You Mind Sharing A Description Of Your Biggest Project?
Basically the title, I would absolutely love a snippet of your writing too if you're okay with that, it just seems like y'all are super creative!

It’s a bit similar to yours:
16 year old Del has a life of privilege: since his mom won the election for his country’s prime minister, he lives a life of luxury in the executive residence.
Despite having this, he can’t help by feel out of place. His mom has had him get tutored to that he can carry on her political legacy some day. Del, however, yearns for the life of a normal teenager, and wants to get away from politics as he learns about how dangerous, corrupt, and manipulative it is.
His moms tenure is mostly identified by a war going on in the same time period between two other countries. These two countries have a monopoly on the world’s energy production, so the war has global consequences, with other countries one thriving plunge into crisis.
Del’s country manages to avoid this with a deal they’d signed with one of the country’s, granting them priority for energy sales. So, life remains mostly normal. However, just the politics surrounding the war begin to show the cracks in the government of Del’s country.
Difficult choices exist for him ahead, as he considers whether to stay and help stop his mom’s life’s work from going in vain or to use it as an excuse to pursue the life of his dreams.
Ohh ohh!
So, there was this evil wizard who had a magical stone that gave him lots of power. Before he died, he repented and cut the stone into 8 pieces, dividing them between his friends and kids.
It kept the power out of the hands of one person, but now everyone is fighting over them.
The story is about Thane, his youngest son, who is a hated outlaw and has a ton of trauma (because his dad was a villain). His job is to save the country that hates him from his older brother who is trying to take over the world.
It's very complicated, but pretty much Thane is a Bucky Barnes sort of character, and his best friend is Jonathan (pretty much Gandalf) and there is the sweetest princess (who is falling for him, obviously) and the crankiest prince (who hates Thane's guts) and the poor old king who is trying to keep everyone from murdering each-other (namely Thane and said prince😂).
It's a rolling sort of tale, and I am in love with it.
I am also in love with Thane's redemption arc.
I am actually writing a full fledged book that I'm hoping to get published by 2028!
The book is called Azure. It starts with a 17 year old man named Leo trying to find his brother at a university. While waiting for him, he sets himself up at a library and finds a very peculiar looking book. After reading the first paragraph, his vision turns black and he awakens to find himself in a fantastical new land called Azure. In Azure, the people all have animal features, nature has changed dramatically, and it is perpetually snowing. After a series of horrific events, including the village he was staying at being ransacked and slaughtered, he vows to kill the gods of this land one by one until he finds a way home.
If anyone has questions I would be happy to answer of give more details!
Basically I had this dream in like October of last year and it was about these two teens who were best friends who got drafted into war, but over time it sort of evolved into a story about some teens who started fighting in like a guerrilla kind of deal when their village got attacked, but then I decided that storyline made no sense and I hated it so I changed it again, now it starts in a more urban setting and there are slightly different characters. Protagonists stayed mainly the same. Anyways, here's a brief explainer of the plot:
MC is 15 and lives with her parents and her 13 year old cousin in an old city similar to Prague or Cologne. MC's parents, a journalist and a professor, were part of a pro-democracy resistance of sorts when they were younger, before they settled down to raise MC. The geopolitical climate in this world is fairly tense, with a large and dictatorial country attempting to expand itself through a puppet regime in the country directly above MC's and a gathering of troops at the border of MC's country. Since MC's parents have fairly inflammatory pasts (which MC isn't aware of), which could make them targets, they decide that it would be safest if MC and her cousin stay with family friends at their farm, but as the story goes on, one of the family friends (the bada** former military of course) gets drafted and her absence weighs pretty heavily on MC and friends. Anyways, more stuff happens but it's basically just like a coming of age story amid a geopolitical conflict, and me shoving a bunch of references to stuff I like in there as well, because why not?
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk!
My story is about a pizzeria similar to the one in five nights at Freddy’s, but with a polar bear as the main mascot, and the pizzeria suffered the same fate as Freddy Fazbear’s pizza, 5 kids go missing, and their bodies were stuffed into the animatronics, and the main animatronic is a polar bear named Polaris, who has brown eyes, and has pink streaks in her hair, and rosy red cheeks, and a mouth full of sharp teeth. Polaris is the only animatronic that remains intact, all the other animatronics are destroyed and dismantled, but Polaris fixed the other animatronics, and one kid who survived the missing children incident has severe trauma from the incident, and he thought he survived, but he was actually one of the victims, and his father rebuilt him as an animatronic with advanced artificial intelligence, and he tried to find the other missing children, but the animatronics thought he was going to attack them, but he managed to gain their trust. And eventually the killer shows up and ends up getting killed by the animatronics, and his body is torn to shreds and a fire burns down the pizzeria but the animatronics manage to escape.
Another story I’m planning on writing is about two teen princes, one who is from Canada and the other from England. Prince Charlie is a very creative and talented prince, he doesn’t like being royalty, he just wants to be like every other kid at his school, and his boyfriend Prince Alfie is a prince who hates royalty. Prince Charlie introduced Prince Alfie to his family, who thought Prince Alfie was perfect for their son, and Prince Charlie admitted to Prince Alfie that he liked him and they kissed, and Prince Alfie said that Prince Charlie is a good kisser.
I have an idea for a story where the main protagonist is a teenage girl who killed herself and she gets into the afterlife and is faced with the choices of a) going back to her old body and not dying yet, b) getting reborn or c) stay in the afterlife. Usually when someone dies, they’re supposed to think about their choice for a month and in the mean time they stay on the earth as ghosts but they can’t interact with anyone or anything at all. The story focuses on our protagonist and her new found friend who also died at the same time as her and how they try to make their choice
