Oh, she’s so precious.

Gabriel Mai

Bittersweetness filled Gabriel. He could see the conflict in her movements, and while he wished her to stay, he also knew that she needed to go home. She didn’t belong in this cursed place.

“Lucy, I don’t matter. Fairness is a luxury, I am a peasant. But you…you need to go home. If that door…[Read more]

Gabriel was in many ways a stranger. He came from someplace else, his life was entirely different, and it was impossible to predict his thoughts. But he had fought a monstrous dog and birds, run through thorns, and never once complained or left Lucy for good.

Lucy glanced at the letterbox once more. She imagined in a way she often…[Read more]

Gabriel Mai

“I…can survive in this maze better than you, and you’re just a kid. You need to go home.” He almost pulled his mask back up, to hide the sorrow in his eyes, but stopped himself, forcing his hand back down to his side.

Lucille

Lucy took the key, wrapping her hand into a fist. Everything felt so slow and so fast at once. “What about you?”

@whalekeeper

Gabriel Mai

He handed her the key. “Go. You need to get home.”

Idk what else to rp, sorry.

@rae

Oh and I want to validate that it might not just be a habit problem, and you shouldn’t feel guilty for not eating food in a disciplined schedule, especially if you have a physical condition. Sometimes other health factors affect eating more than we think. I had at least one condition to tackle before my eating got better.

Lucy stopped to look at Gabriel breathlessly. A cluster of emotions throttled her head, mostly fear. Urgency.

Her hope spiked when the footsteps grew louder, and hair rose up her neck when the light in the slot flickered to black.

“I…” She found herself staring at the key in Gabriel’s hand.

@whalekeeper

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel watched her desperation, momentarily hoping that the doorway really did lead to her world, but he doubted it.

“If…if the doorway really does lead back to our worlds, then you should…go back.” It hurt to say it. He knew he’d never see her again after she went home. A tiny part of him hoped his suspicion that…[Read more]

@loopylin

Ooohhhh it’s been so long since I read that! And I only read the first one. But now that you say it, yes, this is totally that.

@rae

That’s alright

Lucille

“It looked real to me,” Lucy argued.

Her attention was taken by a more typical door she would have seen in her city, in one of the courtyards. The door had a letterbox. Through a crack, warm light glowed, and a faint unidentifiable sound crackled from within.

Lucy pushed the slot open by sticking her fingers…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Sorry for replying so late for being active, i was reflecting on your post in the Prayer thread and forgot we were rping.

Gabriel Mai

“Hm? No, the imp said the only way back were the crystal orbs, this is probably just a tease, an image to make me more desperate to get home. Come, let’s see if they have an image of your home too.”…[Read more]

@rae

(much better than my randomness lol)

The randomness worked well for the setting and gave me ideas 😛

@rae

Lucille

Lucy ran up next to him. “Let me see – come on.”

The peephole was too high for her, and Gabriel had to help her up.

She peeked through the hole. The sight of a warm, stone room greeted her eye. An old man sat on a chair, rocked back and resting, a book’s pages turning in the air of their own accord.

“You can go home,” she whispered.

@whalekeeper

oOoOoooOh I like this idea (much better than my randomness lol)

Gabriel Mai

Gabriel ran his fingers over the wood of the doors. Perfectly smooth, not a splinter. He tried a handle, finding it locked like the one Lucy had tried. If he had to, he wondered if he would be able to break one of these doors down. Was it hollow or solid?…[Read more]

@rae

I literally forget that food exists sometimes until my stomach starts hurting badly.

You might not find my advice useful, especially because you have a physical condition I don’t. I don’t presume to know how many physical vs. mental blocks you’re facing.

But I’ve been actively working on this problem myself. So maybe what I’ve been doing…[Read more]

@rae

I’m so sorry!

Eating habits can be sooo hard to overcome…especially when your subconsciousness is telling you that losing weight=good 😭😭 I’ve been there before. There can be so many lies attached to food and eating habits, and if you think that might be part of the problem, I’d suggest looking at your thoughts and the lies you might be…[Read more]

@esther-c

okay! sounds good!

Don’t worry about it, it’s okay <3

@rae

Lucille

Gabriel opened the door and they slipped into an open, circular room. A room filled with doors.

The doors surrounded Gabriel and Lucy. Tall, stove-sized, ash-white wood, paneled peeling rust – decorated with ornate arches, they encircled the room together. Lucy recognized most of the materials, even if some designs confused her.…[Read more]

@rae

Girl, Ellette writes some of the most tragic characters. She and Freedom make it their business to make KP cry, I swear.

Haha really? I guess I haven’t been keeping up with the writing that happens here…

Also, thank you. The hair took me forever.

Of course!
