Lucian

“You’ve never worked for nobility before, have you?” Lucian said. He did what she wanted anyway, feeling mildly amused. Onyx didn’t seem to understand what he was doing at first and pulled her head away, but after some gentle coaxing under his breath, he was able to get her to stay still.

I asked my dad and it’s a college. XD  Average class size is 13, so definitely small.

(Got paid to go to college 🤣)

Lol, nice.

I think my interview went well. It was enjoyable at least, and at a coffee shop so I got coffee out of it. XD

Lucian

Lucian caught the brush reflexively letting his apple fall and roll across the floor. He looked at it and then over at George, raising one eyebrow.

Lucian

Lucian smiled at the informality. At home it would have bothered him, but here it was a sort of relief, not being recognized.

“Lucian.” It felt odd leaving out the full title. “What’s yours?”

Lucian

“I’m not interesting.” Lucian pulled another apple out of his pocket and began polishing it with his sleeve. Onyx eyed it jealously. “But animals usually seem to like me anyways.” He watched the cat as it found a sunny spot to sit down. “What sort of cat is it? I haven’t seen one that big before.”

Lucian

“…Hello,” he said quietly to the cat. He hesitated a long moment, wrestling with his own self-consciousness, then crouched down to pet it. The cat was friendly, and leaned into the strokes. Eventually it got bored though, and slunk out of his reach, but still hovered in the same area. He stood again and attempted to bru…[Read more]

Jack

“Two. A brother and a sister.” He snapped the book shut with one hand and put it back on the shelf. “You?”

It sounds like you are going to a university?

Is that different? And I think so…

Something you may want to consider, check and see if there are any community colleges around you. You can typically take your core classes (Math, English, Government, US History, etc.) for half the price of a university, especially if you are…

Wishing you luck on your academic endeavors 👍

Thank you!

I know. *hands you wrinkle cream*

HA

I also have not been to college because I am extremely academically burnt out, but I’m glad I seem like someone who possibly has. (Going to ignore the old person comment.)

Sorry I can’t be helpful. Wishing you luck on your academic endeavors 👍

Hillsdale…😬 They only have a 20% acceptance rate.

You haven’t been to college 😂

but i’m still an adult

I know. *hands you wrinkle cream*

@elishavet-pidyon

Do you know what career or career field you are interested in?

I plan on majoring in politics and economics. I might switch out economics for history, but economics is more likely to get me a job afterwards. I want to run for office at some point, but until I get to the US congress I’ll need another job…[Read more]

Hi! I’m interesting in learning about that book once it’s published!

I haven’t had much time for either writing or KP lately, between school, dance, and work. I’m a senior now so I’m trying to figure what I want to do with my life as an adult.😅 I have an interview with the college I want to go to on Wednesday so that’s exciting…[Read more]

Awww cutee!

Lucian now has brown hair because I can’t stop imagining him like that so I might as well change it.

@whalekeeper

Lucian

When he heard the voice, he immediately straightened his posture and wiped some apple juice off of his lip with his thumb. A girl stood there, with a broom and a bucket sitting next to her. He stepped out of…[Read more]

Annnnddddd I disappeared again😂🤪

I am doing well. Tired, working a ton, squeezing writing in where and when I can. I’m bouncing between projects, with writing my Fantasy Series… (that I don’t quite know how to describe without spoilers atm bc a lot of things have changed since I’ve last…[Read more]

Oh

taking this opportunity two days too late :] (I don’t remember what I have already shown you)

These songs might change as I develop the story more, but here:

“Folktales. Old stories. From someplace I’m not familiar with. I love reading these kinds of books to my younger siblings.” He flipped the book open, turning pages randomly, until he paused on a page with an illustration of a villainous wolf. It stared up at him hungrily from the page. “They’re full of monsters and magic and…[Read more]

As his frustration simmered down, Lucian realized he hadn’t been paying attention to where his feet were taking him. He paused, turning around to orient himself. He didn’t want to go back inside just yet. Learning and research could wait. If he remembered the map of the school correctly, he wasn’t too far from the stables. He began walking…[Read more]

I tried typing Moth and it autocorrected to Mother and I almost started laughing very loudly to myself in public

Ellis

Ellis gave Moth a warning glance, eyes slightly wider. He felt it would be better to forget that the past ten minutes had ever happened. He looked at Ari again. “You’re going to do archery now?”

Obviously this kid could see, but how could he be observant with his hair over his eyes?

Hey, you’re not supposed to question things. It’s because, uh… it’s just anime logic, okay? XD idk this character is old

Jack

“Alright, keep your secrets.” Jack wandered over to another shelf and pulled down a book. It was titled ‘German F…[Read more]

Hello! Good to see you back! That illustrating gig sounds like fun. I would love to hear about it when it’s published. Your art style is perfect book illustrations.

I have been busy myself working full time and trying to stay healthy and not burn out. I’ve been somewhat consistent with writing daily which I’m excited about.…[Read more]

Hey, it’s a perfectly reasonable question from Ellis. I’m sure there are plenty of princes in the school in the same position.

Ellis

“We were dueling.” Ellis jumped onto the change of subject quickly. “Moth won. He is very quick with a rapier.”

Ellis

“Family…” Ellis chewed on his lip for a moment as his mind worked. “Are you in competition for your kingdom’s throne?”

He wasn’t sure what a mood was or why it would be damapened,

Me, constantly switching between formal ways of speaking and a more causal, modern way of speaking: I don’t know what I’m doingggg

I also vote Reynen if you are looking for input, but they all seem cool :]

Jack

The academy library was located in one of the school building’s towers. It was huge, covering two entire floors. There were writing desks, window sill reading nooks, and, of course, books. Plenty of books.

Jack took his time admiring everything. He…[Read more]

“I don’t know. It was dark.” There was a twinge of pain behind his eyes. He closed them for a moment. Ari’s questions were a bit annoying. Ellis was used to everyone at home already knowing about his gift. Explaining was going to start getting repetitive. “I saw it in a vision. About five minutes ago. Sorry to dampen the mood.”

He also fumbled to remove the battery from his beeping gadget… his medical device.

*flashbacks to growing up with a diabetic brother* You put those batteries back right now, child.

(is it his pump or his cgm?)

Ellis

So that’s what Moth had meant by spooking people with his eyes. Ellis squared his shoulders and forced the words out a bit quicker. “I sa…[Read more]

Ellis

The tips of Ellis’ pointed ears were red with embarrassment, but he bowed politely to Ari as they were introduced. He studied Ari’s face, unsure if he could trust his own memory. Was it him? It had to be. Better to trust his gut. He opened and closed his mouth a couple times before finally saying, “I need to warn you a…[Read more]
