Mel

The kitchen was small, with vinyl flooring and fake marble countertops. It was connected to the living room by a large doorway. In the living room was a couch, an armchair, a bookshelf, and a tv. Toys and comic books were scattered around on the carpet. Some were forced into the living room as the group crowded…[Read more]

Ellis

Ellis perked up again.

“Let’s go then! You’re not annoying. And if you were, I probably wouldn’t say. Do you like fencing?”

He might find Lois in the gymnasium.

He will not. Lois would have to be dragged there XD

@whalekeeper

Ellis

Ellis hesitated. He was used to ominous feelings and unsolved mysteries. The novelty faded quickly for him. Exploring with Moth sounded fun, but…

“I was going to go to the gymnasium. Practice some fencing.” It was something he had been looking forward to. He dropped his branch back on the ground and gave Moth a somew…[Read more]

@whalekeeper not me trying to figure out whether or not my characters would recognize the name “Colorado” because the Spanish language and the name of the river (although it’s largely localized to one state/planet instead of multiple) both exist in their universe

in the end I decided not to bring it up lol

@whalekeeper

But I know a changeling story with a different, fun premise. It’s called The Oddmire: Changeling and it’s about a pair of twins.

I have had that same premise idea for a while now and I am simultaneously disappointed that someone beat me to it, and very happy that a story like that exists and is published. I shall check it out.

@whalekeeper

it’s been argued that changelings were an explanation for special-needs kids

That explains a lot

I should not be happy about this because if I lived in that time period someone probably would’ve murdered me by now, but I am happy about it.

now i just need cool stripes.

@beth-torres Yes! Please join! (If you want to)

Ellis

They reached the trees on the edge of the field and continued wandering, keeping the school in sight. The tension from the vision and finding the dead bird was eased by time and the peaceful nature surrounding them. Ellis picked up a broken branch off the ground. It could have been broken by the metal man, or just as easily…[Read more]

I felt this rp needed a concerned mom character

Sarabelle

Princes were odd creatures. This, Sarabelle knew very well after working at the school as a cleaner for the past three years. She knew this well enough to tell the difference between a student being eccentric, and a student being suspicious. She paused her duties to watch one particular curly haired youth wander shiftily around the hall…[Read more]

@whalekeeper Yeah I’ve heard that idea a lot. And I’ve heard people say that it could have also come from neurodivergent kids. I know that autistic people can give neurotypical people an uncanny valley feeling sometimes. I’ve always felt connected to modern changeling characters. That idea fascinates me. But also I like the classic creepy evil…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

She has some wisdom. XD

I wouldn’t call it that

That’s valid. I just spent 20 minutes researching the Pre-Raphealite art movement because I was wondering if it would be a better term than “medieval” for costume design. Result: it would not.

XD that is very relatable. Sounds like it was a pretty fun rabbit trail to go down thoug…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

Would she like sky-diving?

Uhhhhhhhhh

I don’t think so. She doesn’t like feeling out of control of her circumstances. She likes being up high  in trees and things because it’s calming and the view is peaceful. It makes her feel safe. She’s not thrill seeking. (I very much overthought this question)

I did another character chart last night

@rae ooooh interesting lore!!

also the adhd bit makes me think of how we decided that Scout canonically has adhd lolllll

wind charmer Jeremy would certainly be something but it actually really fits him tbh

Mellissa

“Can we go to the kitchen now? I’m hungry.” Mel pointed to the door that they had come in from, but it had now changed. It was wooden, and had sun bleached paint that was starting to peel. The bottom had an unused cat door and a few splashes of dried mud from the rain. Mel recognized it. It was the door into…[Read more]

@koshka Ariii! That chart is very fun to read though thank you for sharing

Ellis

“I have never seen a metal man like that before. They sound… unnatural. But I saw a pair of metal feet in my vision. They looked damaged. One was twisted and broken.”

Sorry it’s short:
