2007-01-24 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Everything in iambic pentameter? -first comment dance-

2007-01-24 [Linderel]: Then I would have a problem, because I haven't mastered that yet. xD
I suggested heroic couplets because they should be relatively easy, yet clearly following a certain form.

2007-01-24 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Hm. Rhyming, do you think?

2007-01-24 [Linderel]: Oh crap, now I'm confused. Wikipedia says heroic couplets are in iambic pentametre. Help!

2007-01-24 [Linderel]: Yes, I probably meant rhyming couplets. Shoot me now?

2007-01-24 [GoneGone]: I say Limericks!

2007-01-24 [Fireblade K'Chona]: It's okay, Linderel. -pats- And technically, heroic couplets can be in hexameter too, so you're all right. :P

2007-01-24 [Linderel]: A piece of advice: Please don't pat me. Ever. <_<
Limericks? Hmmm.

I had an idea, though. What about having each character speak in a different form? It would accentuate their differences in personality as well.

2007-01-24 [GoneGone]: That, and respond to the strength of the writer. If I'm horrible at heroic pentameter, but strong in limerick, it would be less frustrating to go with what I'm best at.

2007-01-24 [Fireblade K'Chona]: Okay.

Characters in different forms might be interesting. Like ED's comment about Ms. Sestina and Mr. Haiku or whatever? Huh.

I call Monsieur Iambic Pentameter. :P (not really).

2007-01-24 [GoneGone]: I think, between the three of us, we can all safely agree Iambic Pentameter is all yours.
