@esther-c @whalekeeper @lydibug @janellebelovedpig @freedomwriter76 @livingwoodchronicles @euodia-vision @smiley @sarafini @keilah-h @felicity @hybridlore @everyone!
Heres a cute idea, inspired by @whalekeeper ! Your characters can write letters to your other characters, or other peoples characters! You can write about their day, plans they plan to do, upcoming events, life, school and basically everything! This might make your characters seem more real. If you dont want them to write letters they can also text. Just though it would be fun to do! 🙂

84 StarlingBell Street
Baztet Capital, year of Synod 1811
Dear Unknown Address, Unknown City, Unknown World, Whomever it May Concern:
Hi, I’m Cal.
I don’t usually write letters to complete strangers, but my friend told me to find a pen pal other than her, so here I am.
My life has been alright so far. I live in the Baztet capital, with my parents and three little brothers. My father (his name’s Noc) works at the college and sometimes lets me help. I like to read, research, and sit by the fire a lot. Makes me look old and wise.
I also like snow. You might not believe it, but the window pane next to me is covered in frost right now. It’s the beginning of the holidays. We’ll go out in the streets, and bits of snowflakes will come down shaped like lilies and roses – it’s wondrous. Do you have anything wondrous near you?
Maybe I’m a little sheltered down here, but I think Noc’s right to worry. A lot of the aristocrats here are leaning towards barbarian inspirations. …But that’s Baztet politics for you, and I’m not going to talk about them any longer, either here, or in my letters.
So that’s me. …Tell me about your life, maybe? You’re sure to live in a different world, and I do love hearing about worlds unknown. My cat does, too.
Yours,
Lordling Cal
PostScript: Sorry about the excessive postage. My friend gave me her now hated original stamp collection, and I’m trying to use up all the extras I can… The ones that are still sticky, that is.

because throughout my series my charries travel, so if they ever wrote letters it would probably be to just vent or help them feel like their feelings are being known, but they wouldn’t be writing to anyone in particular.
It would just be dumped into the sea, or float away on the wind, or something.
Or perhaps they wrote it before they left their lands.
AHHH SO MANY IDEAS!!!

Hi! I’m Jocelyn!Dearest personsTo the wondrous of all readersAlrighty…I don’t know how to write a letter. My friend Ridley says you’re
supose souposeSupposed to add a dress to it (which sounds strange to me. Why would you put a dress on a letter?!), and then write whatever you want, and then send it, but I don’t have anyone to send it to!That’s okay though, because my cousin says that the Letter Gods will help deliver it, as long as I seal it with a…what was it…
A sticker!
Ridley seemed to agree, so yea. This is my first ever letter! Isn’t that great! I dunno who will get it, but you should send me a letter too! Are you from Cirque? That’s where I’m from! It’s the most bestest place in the whole wide ever!
If you don’t live in Cirque, you should!
I gotta go now, Unca’s calling me!
Your new friend, Jocelyn!
OH AND NYX TOO! He wanted to say hi! His paw print got a bit smudged though.

#ProtectSebJune 21, 2023 at 1:45 pm #148558I also imagine Lyn had Nyx lick the envelope shut XD!! Thought he was probably like “ICK!” Afterwards XD
He would’ve been a legit baby kit and known only a couple words. She was probably like 6 or 7 or so when she wrote this.
