Yes, I do! Sorry it’s been a bit since I”very managed to respond, but now I’ve got ideas, so we’ll see what happens.
Alyona
They were leaving. Alyona bit her lip to keep back the sudden tears.
And to think she’d been anxious to get away from them at first!
But… Jocelyn and Arabella were good friends, even though they’d hardy gotten to know each other.
“I…We…think it’s about time to try and get home now…” Ara seemed to struggle a little to find words. “But we…we first wanted to say goodbye. To…to all of you.”
How could she say goodbye?
November glanced at them, “We’ll really miss you, a lot.”
“That’s for sure!” Jocelyn smiled.
Then it seemed it was Nyx’s turn, but he didn’t seem to care to take it.
“What?” the little fox’s voice sounded rather… Tight. Lyngave him an older sister look and waved her hand for him to continue. “Agh…fine…Goodbye….”
The fox looked away defiantly, but his whiskers were trembling like he’d cry. Then he turned and curled into Jocelyn’s hair, hiding his face.
The adorably ridiculous thing was just like a very little boy. Alyona laughed, her emotions slightly brittle.
“Well, Nyx aside, we’re all sad to go.” Lyn rolled her eyes. “But Ara’s right. We should get going.”
The goodbyes began to swirl around her, filling her heart with a heavy fog. She really couldn’t keep track if them, untill –
“And I’m gonna miss ya Ally!”
Suddenly, Alyona found herself wrapped in a hug. She hugged Jocelyn back, forcing the lump from her throat enough that she could talk.
“The Lord bless you, and keep you,” she whispered in Lyn’s ear, “And give you peace.”
Then she stepped back with a damp smile. “I’ll miss you too, and I’ll think of you whenever I have a wall to climb. Or a tree, for that matter.”
Lyn laughed, and
Viktor
“And Viktor. Thanks…ah…for everything. You’re…really brave,”
‘Me? Really brave?’ Viktor blinked and licked his lips, uncertain what to say to that.
Except, maybe…
“Thank you, Brother.” Viktor took November’s hand and slapped his back in farewell. “I’m glad we were put together. You’re brave too, in all the ways I’m not.” He smiled and tipped his head. “And a good friend to a boy who’s only ever had sisters.”
“Keep us in your prayers, and know we’ll be keeping you in ours.” He squeezed November’s hand before dropping it, suddenly finding his voice hoarse, “The Lord bless you and watch over you in all your ways.”
November nodded and swallowed. “Uh, yeah. Thanks… we will.”

You have listened to fears, child. Come, let me breathe on you... Are you brave again? -Aslan
October 15, 2022 at 10:44 pm #119527XD I totally understand! I have all the way from Scotch highland bagpipes to Bible Colleges on mine. Big difference.
A slightly magic woven world would be fun! Then a lot of stuff could be smoothed over between genres. Although my characters are from a non-magical world, I think they would flow pretty well.

Fork the GorkOctober 15, 2022 at 10:55 pm #119529The AU sounds really fun! XD Although honestly, the illustration of an elf making coffee was rather funny….
Wait. Okay, now I’m seeing Inglor meeting Halt from Ranger’s Apprentice.
Inglor: What is this dark drink? It tastes rather bitter.
Halt: (under breath) That’s the taste of good coffee.
Will: Uh, add honey. Lots of honey.
Anyway, that was completely unconnected. XD
And yes! Character/book song lists can be insane. Mine wanders from worship music to some random medieval instrumental stuff to two recordings of a shofar. Both the way it’s played at military funerals and at feasts. XD

October 15, 2022 at 10:56 pm #119531@elishavet-pidyon AWWWWW!!! Viktor has no idea how good he just made my boy feel!
@koshka @freedomwriter76 @keilah-h @e-m-trepkeJocelyn
“I’ll miss you too, and I’ll think of you whenever I have a wall to climb. Or a tree, for that matter.”
Lyn let out a laugh and put her hands on her hips, grinning from ear to ear.
“Let’s hope you don’t get anymore pinecones thrown at ya!” Ally chuckled, a bit of a wet laugh but filled with mirth nonetheless. Ara gave her a long, heartfelt hug, and Lyn listened as Ally whispered another goodbye to the girl.
Lyn smiled, but sniffed slightly, and turned away.
Nyx brushed against her cheek gently, feeling the shift in her mood. She smiled at him, and rubbed his soft fur.
November
Viktor clapped him on the back, a motion that made him jerk forward slightly.
There was that word again.
Brother.
It tickled his ears, playing at the recesses of his mind. So familiar, yet so…
Distant.
Like a memory, just out of reach.
A taste, on the tip of his tongue.
Something he couldn’t quite place.
“I’m glad we were put together. You’re brave too, in all the ways I’m not.” He smiled and tipped his head. “And a good friend to a boy who’s only ever had sisters.”
Viktor’s words brought November back. He blinked. Brave in all the ways he’s not…
What did…what did that mean?
November wasn’t brave…
November was a coward….
A failure…
But, looking at Viktor’s face, he could tell the boy meant his words, and a stroke of confidence burst inside him. He smiled.
“Keep us in your prayers, and know we’ll be keeping you in ours. The Lord bless you and watch over you in all your ways.” Viktor looked away, emotion filling the timbre of his voice. November’s smile falter.
“Uh, yeah. Thanks…we will.” He gave the boy’s shoulder a quick squeeze goodbye, before glancing at Ara.
She smiled.
Time to go….
He sucked in a breath, eyes glancing at all of the others in the room.
Ara’s gaze followed.
The group made their way around quickly, saying their goodbyes.
It was…hard. Though…a bit harder with some more then others.
Eva and Arabella cried a bit,
Crosshair and Nyx just glared at each other, but eventually nodded in mutual understanding.
Crow seemed pleased to not have to deal with the fox anymore, but Jareth was upset.
“Do you really have to go?” He asked.
“Afraid so.” Ara smiled, hugging him one last time.
The last people they said goodbye to were Mikkel and Franz.
Franz had been easy, wanting nothing to do with them. Though Lyn made sure he noticed her waving goodbye, by standing right next to him. And then, without warning, she ended up wrapping her arms around the surly man in a hug.
“WhAt-“ He spluttered. Everyone stared. “WHAT ARE YOU-“ Lyn released him, pleased with herself, and skipped away.
The goodbye with Mikkel was a bit emotional, for November at least, as it had been with Viktor and Riker, but he was able to get through it, and thank the young man for all of his help and knowledge.
Truly…none of them would’ve gotten very far without his help…
And so…with all of their goodbyes said and done, the foursome began their walk towards one of the tunnels, listening to the endless call of goodbyes from Jareth and Naja.
They waved in return, until soon, no one was in sight.
Their hearts hung low for a bit, but, eventually they continued on.
November sucked in a breath. Maybe they’d see each other again…
But it wasn’t very likely.
In truth…they weren’t even sure how they’d gotten her. And once they figured out how to get home? Would they ever come back?
Probably not…
But…
They did have to go home…
needed to go home.
And, as Ara squeezed his hand, smiling at him, November knew everything was going to be alright.
that ending sounds sappy but whatever XD XD

October 15, 2022 at 11:08 pm #119537And uh, if we’re going to be doing a separate AU with our characters, I may pull Zlatan and Vulkasin from here. I don’t know. I want to try out two other characters, one of which is an MC who I haven’t even written a pov for yet.
She’s really under developed.

Fork the GorkOctober 15, 2022 at 11:15 pm #119539ALSO, I think y’all will get to meet…
REÚVEN ELROI!
Because I just realized how much I need to practice writing him…
But I think you’ll also get to meet…
Alwin and Willaim
So, at this time in the timeline, Alwin and William have been free for about three-four years. I think. It about one-two years. The question is, do you want Bible College students or young/new converts?
If they’re older, than I’ll probably end up adding in Winifrith too, and maybe a side character named Percy to pick on them all. (Good friends)
Because for some reason, I’d rather develop them in the NEXT book, and not the one I’m supposed to be writing. Of course.
