Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin

@loopylin

No, just pushed his chair back from the table to get a little space. Probably should have specified.

Poor Lois. He might regret taking that seat XD

@loopylin

Moth

“I have two human brothers.” Soft pride seeped into his voice. “They were the first people I ever met, after they got lost in faerie land. That was before I knew about this place. It is a long story.”

@ellette-giselle

Ooooh, I knew these boys would clash. The major problem here is that Ari was already irritated at Wolfgang.

Ari

For a moment he just stared at the boy. Impudent, noisy, irritating…

If he was Halir, he would laugh. If he was Heral, he would just walk away. But he was Ari, and what did Ari do?

It you want friends…his…[Read more]

Imagine if Ari lost his cool and actually punched him

@ellette-giselle

O_O

Ari

He nearly choked on his spiced wine. The boy beside him stared back with laughing eyes…Ari’s face darkened.

“You ask many questions.”

At the sound of his voice a few long time students nearby flinched and shrank away. Ari ignored them in favor of another sip of wine. It was little more than spiced grape cordial, but…[Read more]

Moth

“Lucien… Jack Celby. I’ll remember. I can address them in passing. They will try to remember if they’ve met me before, same as you wondered.”

Laugh lines framed Moth’s eyes. They were the only sign – outside of what he said – proving he was being playful.

“You are lucky to have your brother with you,” he added.

@loopylin

Moth

“Not many,” Moth admitted. “I arrived last night. I met Lois Thorne first. Flax was there, too. Then I met Ari not long before retiring for the night.”

Three new acquaintances felt like a lot, but in the grand scheme of things, it wasn’t.

He pulled his feet up onto his seat, folded his hands together, and propped them on his…[Read more]

Moth

“Yes. I was just thinking, I’ve never seen so many people before. It’s wonderful. I… might try to learn everyone’s names. Don’t you think that would be good? Everyone likes to be known by name.”

@elishavet-pidyon

Yeesss. These boys all have high expectations for themselves, but they’re also a little socially challenged. And I love that. XD

@whalekeeper

After breakfast, Moth will probably walk over to say hi to both of them. That way, Ari realizes he doesn’t have to be quite such a grump, and Lois is actually a cool person

Probably a good idea for all involved.

@loopylin

Moth

“Does your head hurt because of that mark?” Moth asked, before realizing it might be a rude question.

@loopylin @koshka

Oh wow, I forgot. There really are a lot of ways to say it. Maybe I should make a joke about it in my writing project and spell the word differently every time I write it.

Probably won’t, but the MCs would at least joke about it.

Lois lifted his hand, about to wave back to Moth, when he realized he was making eye contact with…

And don’t forget Fey (which is an actual old spelling that has slightly different meanings but hey, it sounds the same).

@loopylin

Ahhh, Lois. You make me feel my social awkwardness is perfectly normal, bless you.

I also made this

@loopylin

I like how you can just spell the word fairy pretty much however you want in the English language. It’s just whatever fits the vibes.

Fairy

Fairie

Faerie

Uh… I’ve never heard of Faery but it should be an option

@koshka

This is actually so accurate I’m almost crying. XD

I am pleased to hear I captured his character so perfectly &#x1f92…[Read more]

@loopylin

I’m laughing at Ellis’ expense. XD Poor guy, getting lots of headaches is the worst.

Moth

Moth’s eyes crinkled a little, hinting at a smile. He spoke quietly. “It’s not too obvious. Would you like me to find a cold washcloth for you?”

He didn’t know much about headaches, but something cool on the forehead might help.

@loopylin

Well of course.

@whalekeeper

This is actually so accurate I’m almost crying. XD
