I tried stuff like conjoining the letters in baa 𐒁𐒛 and waa 𐒓𐒛 given that they are common occurences in the language it would make sense for them to be written quickly. Also if you notice the vowel o is written as 𐒙 but oo written as 𐒝. So adding more humps to the letter would indicate a longer vowel for example at the end of a line of poetry. A lot of the letters in the script work like this

Ideally i want to emulate the blocky feel of ge'ez somewhat but keep it more rounded to distinguish from xabash scripts

I think i figured it out how i want to approach this

For more formal writings i want to emulate how rock inscriptions look with straight lines, like how roman square capitals were used for their form of calligraphy. This kind of writing is never getting mistaken with ge'ez and it has an intimidating feel, maybe can be used by governmnt institutions and restaurants that take thrmself seriously, as well as masaajid

Whereas for handwriting purposes the cursive version as what i initially done will be used, which is more rounded. That can be the type of writing used for if women ever get maqaayada of their own, or journelling idk what you do
