Couldn't we just post it on FF.net and Pm each other our little segment of the chapter? Then put it on here? And we could also put it on FF.net to, so killing two birds with one stone.
You mean post our little segments separate on ff.net and than PM them to each other on here? Sorry, you confused me a little, but I guess we could PM each other the story, thought we wouldn't put it up an FF.net until the whole chapter is complete. Does that have a character limit, PM?

the thing is PM'ing is only between two people. It wouldn't work as well if we had more than that

You know we could just make a topic for it on here and work on it in that topic

So simple, yet I think it's better than anything I came up with xD That is a great idea! Should we make it happen? Have a thread with just us?

This is a great idea. That way people can see it. We still need a format for this though, but I think it works!

so simple...yet so...deranged XD

A format for the story? On ff.net, .odt files work best (or so it says). I think we need to find and use the same writing software. I usually use OpenOfficeOrg. What do you guys use? To be clear, we're not writing the story on the forum, but will write it offline and then send it to the other person? Once that chapter is done then we'll post it? Sorry, just trying to clear things up for myself xD

Format...as in first person, past present, when to use italics, etc.
I (sometimes) use Word, GDrive, yWriter (for planning purposes). Yes FF.net does say that OpenOffice or LibreOffice works best, I was considering downloading one of those :)

Yes, what do you guys use? ^_^

I believe we should write in third person, but also write like it's happening in the present. I don't like writing in the first person that much.

What we could also do is hover around one character at a time. When you switch to another character you would separate the the paragraphs with a sign like this [][][] or something. You could also say what character you switched to, but that should be explained subtly throughout the course of writing about that character... that make sense to you guys?

Oh, and a word of advice, don't go switching characters like every couple lines. If you want to explain the scene in Hiccup's view and how he's feeling and THEN switch over to another character and explain how they feel about the same subject, then that is fine. Sorry for the wall of text xD I always think it sounds shorter in my head.
