But that probably made Gabriel question his appearance more than once.

Oh yes. The hair, and the way he covers up so much made them think that, plus originally he had a more slender frame.

Now in his story as it is currently, he works with a stone mason, so he doesn’t have lithe muscle anymore.

If any of my guy charries were to be…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

What is the reason for this?

It started because the Protector isn’t under the government, and when the First Protector appeared, the government were rightfully wary of civilians trying to mess with strange monsters.

Then it continued as partly tradition and partly that when the Protector becomes the people’s hero, it’s best to keep…[Read more]

That’s… cool. Yeah, very cool. SO cool. 😐

Girl, I don’t think you know what the word cool means.

Wait, wait, let me defend myself! Yes, me literally killing Baron isn’t very cool, but the realization about the Elementals that resulted from it is cool!

Btw, chest compressions save lives! Even in fiction.

I did another character chart last night

Cool little thing.

So last night I wrote a scene that has been in my head where Baron’s heart literally stops. You probably all know how it goes where you write something, then add something to it that you weren’t planning on but somehow makes so much sense?

That was this.

In the scene, just before Baron dies, his connection to the wind snaps.…[Read more]

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]

@whalekeeper

So it really is about passing down the knowledge from previous Protectors, not just becoming another fighter after the last one dies.

Yes. After a few decades, a Protector either becomes to old or too wounded to fight (we shall hope it’s the former for Gabriel) anymore, and that’s when they find their successor. They stay with that…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

They aren’t going to survive long without that mysterious Protector, I’m guessing.

I mean, obviously they have soldiers and guards, but yes, most of the soldiers are just young men who do the work because the pay is actually decent, but otherwise obviously would rather not fight monsters XD. The Protector is a delegation not rec…[Read more]

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

@whalekeeper

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:

to make things easier for myself, im just gonna say that this AU version of Ellis has read about robots

@whalekeeper

Ellis

“You did? Where?”

@keilah-h

LOLLL Soldier is something special.

@whalekeeper

Why can’t Gabriel leave the island? Are there crazy storms that make it impossible to sail away? Or is it the demon monsters that get in the way?

The island is in a state of isolationism that started 200 years ago because of the rise of the monsters. So yeah, the monsters are the r…[Read more]

This boy does not have a category for robots in his brain

@whalekeeper

Ellis

Ellis hesitated for a moment, watching the bird, before jogging to catch up with Moth. When the two were walking side by side, he asked, “How can something that’s not living walk?”

@whalekeeper

Ellis

Ellis swallowed his discomfort and looked in the direction the footsteps were heading. After the wet, marshy area, the ground sloped back up into a grassy field. Beyond that were trees, tall and shady. They seemed to mark the edge of the school grounds.

“The trail ends here, but we know which direction it was going.”

@whalekeeper

*Elias panics*

@whalekeeper

(Perhaps that is a weird thing to congratulate someone for. No matter.)

It makes sense, I don’t mind it! Just don’t say that to someone who’s scared of aging XD.

Thank you!

So she might know places beyond the island? Gabriel would surely ask her about that, even if she doesn’t know about them.

Oh yes, she knows quite a bit about t…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I have a theory

I’m scared to ask because I don’t want you to be right
