They totally are!

Wilhelm

Wolfgang’s second swing was more controlled, although it still sent Wilhelm’s heart up in his throat. He forced his voice into a level calm.

“Ah. That’s better… It depends on the armor, but yes. There’s little use in a weapon that can’t reach your enemy.” Once more, he edged back to give Wolfgang…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Aha! I finally got back on here.

Here’s the sketch of Cass.

@ellette-giselle

Ahh! He’s epic. I’ve never imagined him wearing fancy/volumous clothes before. He looks quite royal in them. The freckles turned out cute. You got his facial structure very well! It’s been one of the hardest things to find for some reason.

Thank you for drawing him!

I do have a drawing of Cassion, but it was just an initial…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Ahh. I love his response. Honestly, relatable.

Wilhelm

He laughed, ducking out of the way of Wolfgang’s stroke. A cord of terror was threading it’s way through his mind, taught with shimmering excitement. He slipped around to Wolfgang’s other, less dangerous side.

“This sword was made to shear through plate armor. Of course…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Wilhelm

His smile widened.

“Not like that. Put one hand here, and the other here. Like this.” He demonstrated, lifting the blade into a salute. It almost touched the ceiling. He held it out for Wolfgang to take. “It was my father’s sword. He won his spurs with it. Tis quite sharp and heavy, so be careful.”

Whoa. AI is both creepy and hilarious. I am glad to know that KP is still a smidgen confusing to a foreign spy.

@whalekeeper

I’m interested in a writing call!

@ellette-giselle

Hehe

Wilhelm

“Well,” Wilhelm paused. He turned to look Wolfgang in the face. “Hopefully not. It’s likely that all this suspicion is unfounded. If so, then no. We will not actually kill people. But if the leaders of this school truly are planning fiendish conspiracy….”

He took down the sword he had stowed away by the…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I think that’s what I said. XD

Wilhelm

No amount of Wolfgang’s excitement, although it lit every aspect of his face, could explain what a Luger was. Wilhelm hardly understood the term “gun.” He suspected it was the kind of thing you would have to see to understand. The weapon sounded like a small war engine or a bow. Wolfgang’s…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yay!

Wolfgang is a walking facepalm.

Wilhelm

“Really? What’s a Luger? One of your guns?” He waved his hands vaguely. He had a distinctive mistrust of Wolfgang’s skill with the weapon. Something about his repeated lack of practice was unnerving. It made the shiver from earlier return, only to settle into flutters in his stomach.

@koshka Very true!

@ellette-giselle

Ok, let’s see….

Wilhelm

As curious as he was about the instrument Wolfgang had named, Wilhelm kept his mouth shut. The other boy had a strange look on his face. It was almost serious.

But then the silence would get too long.

“It sounds lovely. My mother plays the vielle, but I never could make it sing…[Read more]

@koshka

Awwwwwwww ARI! How did you grow up to be like this? (I mean. I know why. But it’s my firm belief that you were a sweet little guy until you started to be mature.)

Fly far, Ari. Find your answers. You can do it.

@whalekeeper

Remington just brought me so much unhinged joy. Thank you. XD That was splendid to read.

Wilhelm Kemp is the second son of Artur Kemp, Protector of (nameless place lol). Wilhelm is a lanky, freckled kid with golden hair, green eyes, and a serious side to his imagination. Probably around 14. Considered a Squire, but not sure the exact rank. He has the right to carry the sword, could be an arming sword, or his German long sword.(But his…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Sounds good.

I think I do, actually. Just a moment…

@ellette-giselle

Yessssssss.

Wilhelm

“We will run into others everywhere, but we should be intentional about making and maintaining friendships.” That would mean being social. The thought withered Wilhelm’s enthusiasm, but he steeled himself against it. He was being social now. It never was the conversation that bothered him, just the numbers.…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Hehehe.

Wilhelm

“The first rule: caution.” He so rounded the their two pieces with others. He really would need to teach some of the others how to play this game, but that would have to wait. “We do not know who is a friend or an ally. Naturally, we should be making good connections anyway, to help keep the politics between our…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Of all things, we were working on the family tree. We started marking out names that die in what we’re calling the Sundering… And realized there were a lot of them. While not half as depressing as the house of Finwe, we had to laugh a little.

Plus, we can totally understand why people name their kids after other family members…[Read more]

*eats popcorn faster*

@ellette-giselle

Which one do you want to do? Since you’re interacting with Wilhelm right now, he’s my suggestion, but it’s really up to you.

@ellette-giselle

Oof. XD

Wilhelm

The firelight caught his face as he leaned forward, illuminating a flash of mischief in his eyes before it could die away. He steepled his fingers under his nose.

“Yes! Ransom. Or they could poison the food. Stage a coup. They could very well be attempting to subvert us to their own influence,  becoming powers…[Read more]
