I don’t know if I’ll have anything going on that day (probably not, though) but if I’m free I’ll come!

Ellette, I think I gave you my email, right?

@ellette-giselle

You’re coming home? Yay! I’m so glad you all survived!

@ellette-giselle

ouch!! I’m not that mean to him.
🤣

…Isn’t he going to die though?

@ellette-giselle

I’ll probably start writing on a computer once I get my own, but I like paper because it’s so portable.

I just KNOW that when I get my license, I’m going to be the family errand girl, and I figure I should have a way to contact my parents from the store. Or call 911 if I get kidnapped. XD We have a house phone too, but my…[Read more]

@koshka @ellette-giselle I’m loving all the wholesome Leo and Rory moments 🩷

@ellette-giselle

Okay, phew. It’s hard to tell when people are actually mad or just teasing on here. 😜

@ellette-giselle

Leo

“Of course I have. I’m an engineer, top of my class. It was the most fun I’ve had in… Well, there’s not much like it. So much energy. Such precise, perfect lines.”

He grinned, picking up a bolt. It was a hex bolt, smooth and surprisingly new. Close to the size he used on the Mantis. He rolled it between his fingers.

“I…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Leo

“Aye, you got it. Nearly everything built out of wood uses nails or screws. Metal stuff like big buildings use heaver screws, welding, bolts, all sorts of things.” He leaned back on his heels eyes going distant. He rolled a bolt on the palm of his hand. “Back home we used a lot more Laser welding, but screws and bolts are…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Or…Leo didn’t have emotional breakdowns as much as serious temper problems and protective issues. Silvia had a lot more breakdowns because she couldn’t understand what was going on (she’s about 5 years younger than Leo).

Leo

“Sure.” He dropped to one knee by the bucket. “This,” he picked up a screw “is a screw. A Philips head…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle
Yep! I was at the last call. Hybridlore has my email, so you can grab it from her if it is more convenient than trading on our profiles.

@ellette-giselle

I get it. XD

I wonder how Leo and Rory would have gotten along when Leo was a torn up 13 year old. Or even 16 year old at the beginning of his own book. It’s been great fun to write him as a fully developed character.

@ellette-giselle

Leo

He frowned. Something was…off. He sat back against the edge of the table, eyebrows quirking and lips pinched.

Rory was tense. Too tense. Kinda like a rubber band pulled tight or a soldier at attention.

Oh. Leo could have smacked himself. Instead he sighed and let a small, serious smile slip into place.

“Rory, I’m not…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I don’t have a phone either. My parents won’t let me have one until I have my driver’s license, and I probably won’t get one for a while if I have to pay. I write on paper, with a book as a clipboard.

@ellette-giselle

Fair enough. I wasn’t completely serious—there’s no time limit on the snowballs, so you can do them whenever.

Gotcha. I’ll keep praying that everything gets worked out.

@ellette-giselle

The car is the best spot to write!

@ellette-giselle

Same room we were in back before the gray and run for Quincy, technically yesterday.

Leo

He let the door fall closed behind them and headed for the box piled wall.

“Make yourself comfortable on the couch there I’ll find that bucket somewhere.” Where had he put it? A few minutes search in the tool boxes came up with nothing. He…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yep.

I’m so excited to see how this goes!

@ellette-giselle

Leo

“Aye. We’re headed down. or rather…” The elevator came to a clicking stop. The door swish clicked open. “Looks like we’re down already. Come on.”

He stepped out into the dimly lit basement. Machines whirred and whined, muffling the ring of their boots against the concrete as he led the way around and through. Oil and cold…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Hmm… that horse suggestion is good. Good point on the dragon.

@ellette-giselle

*mischievously grins* You can’t write on your phone? 😋

Well, it’s good you’re going home. Was everything able to get sorted out?
