Moth

“You would have me fall into pride?” Moth joked, bowing thankfully.

He brightened, then checked himself. He waved an arm through his door. “Would you like to… um… hang out? Y-Yes. I could use some help with something. I have food, and I can entertain. Whatever you like.”

@koshka

Unless this was what you had been messing with…

I did do that. >:]

(Your name is hilarious)

Oh my word, I just realized the dog in my pfp looks like Toto from Oz. That was not intentional. I gave myself Oz’s title because I’m visiting my Midwestern childhood home, and I feel as if I am Dorothy, returned from a magical land to a famil…[Read more]

Ohh! It just let me actually see it. It had you as “Anonymous” with no pic.

Ari

His eyes widened.

“King? And that man put a watching spell on your door? Black stars.” He shook his head, cursing under his breath.

Here was a king who actually wanted to help his people and the school treated him like…[Read more]

@koshka

I was messing around with it. Don’t worry, I’ll put the same pic back. :]

Child of nobody. Well, that was certainly an improvement on his own situation.

I have to say, this is so edgy coming from Ari and I am invested in that. XD

Moth

“Yes. That’s right.” Moth’s voice quieted. “King of the fae.”

@whalekeeper

What had happened to thy profile pic? =|

Ari

“Eh…” He shrugged, eyes on the emptying hallway. “Net necessarily middle children. My father was technically the second born of the stories are true. But things happen to annoying little brothers.”

Things no one wanted to explain to the next generation. That was fine. Ari would find…[Read more]

@koshka

Moth

Moth frowned. He only understood the emotions in Ari’s voice, but it seemed rude to ask more questions. There was the desire to know, and the desire to be polite.

The former won. “Do middle children die easily?”

@whalekeeper

Ari

Moth looked sincere if a little uncertain. Ari looked away to study the scarlet scrolling on the wall.

“I…”

better himself…help his kindred…troubles…this boy was good hearted, even if he did seem a bit unsettled.

Ari was just unsettled.

“Guess I didn’t want to repeat history. Kind of the middle child, so to speak.…[Read more]

@koshka

Moth

Why are you here?

Moth paused. His eyes flickered thoughtfully. The best answer was at the tip of his tongue, even if it wasn’t the full answer. “I want to better myself. Learn everything I can, so I can help my little scattered kindred with their troubles.”

He didn’t understand the full truth himself. He laughed without opening…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ari

The ghost of a smile flickered into view.

Moth. That… Strangely explained the boy’s oddness. Child of nobody. Well, that was certainly an improvement on his own situation.

“Names, yes. They don’t have to be long to be a mouthful.”

Other residents had started to take belated interest in their conversation. The dark Verenion…[Read more]

Moth

“Ari,” Moth repeated. A good name, and easy to remember.

Ari was waiting for something.

“Moth Prince. Son desiderium, child of nobody.” He stepped forward, curving his body into a graceful bow. “That’s a bit of a mouthful. It’s… you know how it is. Call me Moth.”

@whalekeeper

Ari

He gave the boy a slow nod of respect. Certainly didn’t look like someone who would let himself be bossed around by superficial authority figures.

But his question stuttered Ari’s brain to silence. His name? Everyone knew who he was–or if they didn’t, they sure thought they did.

New boy…Right. He relaxed against the…[Read more]

@koshka

Moth

Moth’s smile became less pronounced until only a faint quirk in the corner of his mouth was left. “No. I won’t.”

This prince was tall and a touch older. He looked like a wild creature. Not physically, of course. But his eyes and demeanor barely repressed a dark energy underneath. Perhaps he was a wildcat, passively flicking his…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I’m curious to know if this guy is going to be a problem for the other characters or if he’ll behave in a group setting.

He should be fine but we shall see. He’s not used to working with people.

@whalekeeper

That’s alright! This last week has been nuts for us too.

Ari

The strange golden headed boy gestured a greeting and…smiled. Ari blinked, then slowly reached up to brush his black curtain of hair from his eyes. Hesitated.

Probably a new kid. He’ll ignore me tomorrow.

Still. Might as well be polite.

Ari pressed a fist to his…[Read more]

@keilah-h

I ought to reply to Ruth next. I’ll try to post in the next day or so

@highscribeofaetherium

FOUR? Oh my 🤣

Yes 🤣 Five if you count the fact that one of the earlier characters had two masks instead of one.

but as the story progresses he moves down the spectrum a bit towards the evil side. At this point he’s probably somewhere in between.
