Marines: Hello friends! So, a couple of things happened recently:
– Easter!
– We opened Segue Magic up into a link-up style prompt for those who would be interested in responding to our prompts! Here’s how it’s going to work:
1. We will announce the month’s topics here on this website and also over on the Goodreads group we created. And probably also on Tumblr. We want everyone to do these so we’ll just about post them everywhere. Follow along in your preferred method!
b. Our video replies will remain (mostly) (in as much as we’re good with schedules) the same: Sweeney will post on Mondays, Kirsti will post on Wednesdays and you’ll see my video on Fridays.
cat. We’re inviting everyone to post their own replies on Saturdays! We’re calling it Segue Magic Saturdays. Once your video is up, you can leave us a link on Twitter or Tumblr, hashtag it #seguemagic and we’ll find it to include in a wrap-up post. Your answers to the topic can be about any fictional content or pop-culture! Here are the April topics:
April 11: Favorite Resurrection Stories
April 18: Favorite Fictional Siblings
April 25: Invite five fictional characters to a party.
That all said, we tried our first round last week with the Easter-appropriate topic of Favorite Resurrection Stories. Thank you to Emily (@lovewokemeup), Nick (@ngjenkins), Matt (@mattpalka) and Mairead for rocking the first prompt! You can check out all of the videos below.
Here are the answers tallied up, to get a sense of what direction we all headed. A lot of these stories span across genres (Captain American has movies and comic books, for instance) but I attributed it to the source material or else what the vlogger mentioned specifically:
TV
Buffy Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 1 – Sweeney and Kirsti
Buffy Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 6 – Marines

I'm a 30-something south Floridan who loves the beach but cannot swim. Such is my life, full of small contradictions and little trivialities. My main life goals are never to take life too seriously, but to do everything I attempt seriously well. After that, my life goals devolve into things like not wearing pants and eating all of the Zebra Cakes in the world. THE WORLD.
