I see the flame of stories still burn here in the silver dye section. Seems like it’s been a long, long time since these flames almost died. Although, we never die, do we? No. We’re strong people. We’re storytellers, dreamers, and believers.
-the figure chuckles, removing their hood-
I’m Frost. New here, but old in a different way. I write and tell my tales in a way that may be unusual compared to your guys’ style, but hey. All of us weave our own stories in a different and beautiful way. I ask only to be welcomed to this community so I can finally retire from the other.
I hope you’ll accept a wanderer into your midst.
-Frost.
Lava,
My dog got sick and started being unable to eat. He was a silver lab and his name was Mr. Leeroy Jones. We had to put him down about two weeks before he turned four. We did get a new dog though. He is a beagle and his name is Mr. Charlie Davis. He is currently 14 weeks old and is healthy and doing well.

Although I never knew Tina and I haven’t been present at all lately I am truly sorry. Rip Tina sending lots of love

I’m sorry about your dog, Nazgûl. I will keep your dog and you in my prayers, I promise. I’m also praying for all of you, hoping that we can keep this place lively and happy.
Your friend,

1. Anyone claiming to be me since 2021 was most likely not me. I also haven't gone by any other nickname than DTG here.
2. I'd like to apologize to PM for that cringe argument in the dragon section. I have matured a lot since, and don't hold a grudge. If anything, I hold a grudge against my past self for being so petty. I also want to clarify that dodos were not actually stupid. I believe I knew this at the time, but argued against it just because I was so immature.
3. I started posting dodo tales S4, and will work on Ep6 tomorrow.
-DTG
I pray you take the next three minutes to read what I have to say about this place.
Never meet your heroes.
"Heroes", in this case, being OGs.
What am I talking about? Well what if I told you some of these original writers were talking behind all of your backs about how you are all just little 10 year olds? How outrageous.
Not all of them are bad, obviously. But most are.
Don't believe me? Join the discord server and search up "Dododex" in the filter. Or, use this link to a google doc that will detail all the messages they've sent about you. They even planned on raiding this place again with FDFC invites.

I hope this inspires you to stop worshipping these frauds. They don't care about growing a strong community any more, they only care about themselves. Even back then, in 2020, when it all began they only cared about themselves. If you weren't a good writer then you'd be ignored and shunned. They don't care about you, they never will.
But as shameless as it is, Achatina story section writers certainly do. I promised not to advertise, but I must for the betterment of modern day fanfictioners. I promise you that it will be better than this rotting dump.
#FF4L
Oh, and if you don't like what I have to say? Don't bother trying to dislike this. You WILL see this tip at the top of this section in all filters, Top Rated, Popular, and Newest, whether you want to believe me or not. Those OGs are just fradulent scumbags who only care about themselves. So, stand proud, and create your own legacy on the Dododex instead of praising those who have already moved on.
Pave your own path.
Guys, why are we so invested in talking about arms??
Don’t worry about it, Lunar, there are tons of tips there already. It was only a short story that I posted there anyways.
Prayers are definitely on the way, Nazgûl. The loss of a pet is a difficult one and my heart goes out for you and your family! <3

…
Happy new year.
-sighs-
Not so happy for me…
Please pray for me. My Dad died from a stroke yesterday night. I really miss him. And I feel like you guys might do this kinda thing.
-a fanfictioner fan.
Ima call myself “Catragon that reads books” or “Catragon” for short.
In case anyone asks why: I love cats. I love books. I love dragons. Boom.
~Catragon that reads books
Ok so let me restart
Hello silver dye, my name is lunar, I am the author of a book called lunar eclipse (written in black dye my apologies PL) and um, i don’t know how else to put it but how long before I have to be welcomed, and someone said something about feeding my arm to Someone…….
(That was my whole speech thing)
-Lunar DFŁ
fanfic reader, HELLO!! Swamp guy left when his parents decided he couldn't be on discord anymore, which caused him to just leave the community entirely. That happened like a year and a half ago. did you ever post any messages back then (i mean when dodo tales was still popular etc) ?? i'm curious
-seasnake/snek/first fanctioner or whatever
ATTENTION EVERYONE! THIS IS A PSA BY CL1 (yes the real CL1)
THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE SUS SITUATION, THIS IS EXTREMELY SERIOUS:
President Loki has been writing a story in Black dye and they've been getting a lot of love (and hate) for it. Up till now it was the usual, "you suck" and "nobody cares" messages, but the latest posts have been spams telling them they're life is meaningless and they need to commit.
I've already reported them and sent a lengthy rant, but this needs to be said here, because I fear this type of message is going to spread to all of the dyes.
TO THE FANFICTIONERS
Don't be discouraged my friends! We have our differences, our skirmishes, but we are all on the same side here. If these messages spread to your sections, remember the fans. Remember the kind messages and people begging for more. Remember the newer fanfictioners you inspired! So many of the people we have here would have never arrived without the first few!
If you have a fanfictioner here that inspired you, tell them so! It means more now than ever. I was inspired to write my own stories by DTG and Seasnake.
I KNOW SOME OF YOU STRUGGLE WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, AND THIS PART IS SPECIFICALLY FOR YOU:
Don't listen to the seven-year-old on the other side of the screen. There is a reason you write, don't forget. Fans or no fans, known or unknown, you write because you love writing. Remember that, no matter what is thrown your way. Remember that and soldier on, because for ever hate message you have, there's a silent fan of your work out there waiting for more!
TO THE FANS
I know some of you have found our hub, and to you I say, THIS WILL NOT STOP US. We are here for the love of the game, and the thought that all of you out there are here in our corner (though we don't always know it) is enough to push me forward, and I hope I can say the same of most of the others. If you do enjoy the story, let the writer know. If can be as simple as "This is great" or "keep wititng!" It doesn't take much to bring a smile to the writer's face, believe me, I know!
TO THE HATERS
I think it needs to be said that hate truely is a distorted form of love. The worst thing you can give someone else is indifference. The true lack of care, lack of acknowledgeement that they even exist. So first, I want to say thank you. Thank you for acknowledging us. (This especially goes for you SuS. I think you really love us and just didn't want to fade out as a generic fan, so you're making yourself "special.")
But now this needs to be said as well. You can scoff and laugh and spit on what we do, but what are you trying to accomplish, really? Ask yourself in all honesty: "Why am I doing this?"
Is it jealousy, that writing isn't where you are strongest? You think everyone here came out the womb making Shakespear? It's something that takes practice and dedication and love. We wouldn't be here if we didn't enjoy it.
Maybe you just don't like to read? Great, then move on and find something else to do. Watch TV or a movie (which people had to first WRITE, might I add) or play a sport, go camping, cook a meal, something productive rather than sitting in the dark writing threats and putting other people down.
Maybe you just don't have anything better to do?
.... really? You'd do better finding ways to solve pollution and world hunger, but no. You're sitting here doing this? And some of you have the audacity to call us "pathetic."
Or maybe it's the oldest reason in human history. Some one hurt you, so you're hurting someone else. First, find someone to talk to. If you don't think that's a safe option, there's always SOMEONE you can turn to, whether physically or spiritually. Second, brining pain on other people isn't going to bring you satisfaction, its only going to put more pain out in the world to come right back to you. In my experience, the kind of actions you make directly correlate to your mood.
Bad actions make you feel bad, helpful actions make you feel helpful. There's a reason people help the elderly cross the street.
LASTLY, TO THOSE THAT CROSSED THE LINE
Don't you ever... EVER tell someone to "commit." This world is a dark, dark place, and some of us have seen more darkness than others. There are those out there that it simply takes one push, one more feather on the burden they bear and they will be crushed.
Blood truely could end up on your hands. This is not a game, this is life and life is too much to bear sometimes. Don't end someone elses early. Don't end someone elses at all.
~CL1 needs a break from humanity sometimes.
She lived a life of eleven years,
And her death gives all of us so many tears,
But she lives on in the arms of our Lord,
A hole in our hearts she bored,
She was as sweet as sugar,
And she warmed the hearts of vinegar,
I wish she was still with us in the dyes,
For we never got to say our goodbyes,
She lives on forever now,
Goodbye, sweet Tina,
You shall be missed…

Hey fang. I’m not gonna be here often and I’m not sure if you will see this but welcome to… what’s left of the fanfic community in silver dye. I guess. It’s not very active but I may be able to talk from time to time. Good luck with your stories though! -lava
Hmm
It’s crazy the way the fan fic community in silver dye has come and gone. I’m writing this message for… probably next to no reason and I’m not gonna get on this app in another couple of months probably. I can never stay consistent with this app sadly. I just want to say it was a pleasure to be in this community with all of you guys. I loved the times we spent together whether if it was on ark servers or while creating stories together. I may try to be on the app more often but it’s unlikely. Anyways have a good day. Goodbye

Ah it's a toasty 38f° outside.
Only a week ago it was reaching -35f°
Alaska's cold.

Hello Everyone.
Have you missed me?
-Apex
Find Tina’s stories, 🆙 them and screenshot them so they will never be lost in the archives of dododeex and will live on forever. #FF4L Bye everyone have a great day! -Harpocrates
Idk if y’all remember me, this is my first time on the app in like a year.

Hello silver dye I am the writer of Heroes of Pandora, the first chapters suck.. like bad… if I could delete and rewrite them.. I would. Some of you may have read the first one and been like eh what a noob writer.. but after chapter 3? 2? Idk it gets way better..
Anyway, not trying to promote my story or anything, but if you do read I wouldn’t be mad heh heh.. I am currently at the middlish towards the end part I think? Honestly I want to finish S1 because S2 will be way better and more fun to write
darn I just promoted it didn’t I….. uh anyway hello writers just wanted to enter the silver tier is there an initiation? you gonna throw silver glitter at me or something? I heard someone talking of silver fire…
Please don’t throw me in that..
-wyvernian
Merry Christmas everybody!!! I hope your holidays are filled will joy and cheer. Again, it’s so wonderful to have you guys here as friends and I keep you in my prayers always.
