Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin

LeQoi

The child was certainly not a known member of his domain. He was too helpful, too…skilled. The master of the kitchen watched the boy’s head dip over the pans he’s just returned to.

LeQoi’s eyes narrowed a fraction. Perhaps the school had hired another servant without first consulting him. Similar offences had occured…[Read more]

@loopylin

Ah, poor Ellis. I hope he and his author are feeling better soon.

@koshka

The French internal dialogue is my fav

Callum

Callum only half-listened to the conversation between LeQoi and his cook. LeQoi was an all-knowing master and knew exactly how to restore order. The best way for Callum to be worthy of this job was to hold his head down and do as he was told.

He had to be fast. Efficient. Thorough.

He…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Oh. OH. oh dear.

LeQoi

Nations. Kingdoms. Empires. Heirs to them all in his own masterful fingers.

A pity, really. A delightful pity.

“Hey, boy, you’re late.” A voice rose above the ordered murmurs of his dominion. LeQoi shifted his molten chocolate gaze to the offender. Said chef did not notice. “The baking pans need to be s…[Read more]

Callum

Callum rolled out of bed at the crack of dawn. He rubbed his eyes, tracing his hand over the colorful decor of his bedroom walls to find a lamp. He lit it, shook his head hard enough to strike his own face with his hair beads, and let out a tired groan.

In the hall, outside his room, hardly anybody was there. Most of the doors…[Read more]

@whalekeeper lollll the meme

Sniper

I looked down at the little object in my hand. It was shaped like an insect, maybe a cricket of some sort.

“They’re pins. You put them on your clothes.” Lucy explained. “They’re gifts, because I think you are all… satisfactory.”

I stared at it for a second, tryna figure out what she mea…[Read more]

Huntress

If only i had a knife or something that i could send flying into his body.

He wanted civilized? Fine. FINE. KIDNAPPING INNOCENT WOMEN AND KILLING THEIR COMPANIONS IS NOT CIVILIZED, but whatever.

I sat down on the stones and gave him the biggest death glare I could. “Now what? You gonna send us all into a pit of doom…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

=D

Another reason he’s a grump who wants to fly.

@koshka

I approve of the lore dump. That feels rather high stakes even though Ari might not be aware of how important his decisions will be. Those destinies are so impactful, long term. I like that a lot.

@whalekeeper

By the way, you said Ari is half human? What else is he? Or is that a secret I’m not supposed to know yet?

Not a secret. Just prepare for an info dump as this is complicated. XD

*Deep inhale*

So, according to world building, all the people’s began as the same family who through different choices in life were given different d…[Read more]

@koshka

😛 Yes, he is a babyyy

And Ari is probably going to unofficially adopt Moth as a little brother.

I shall look forward to the time when they are bonded like that.

By the way, you said Ari is half human? What else is he? Or is that a secret I’m not supposed to know yet?

@whalekeeper

Moth is babbbyyyyy… O.O

Must hug must hug must hug

*Melts*

Despite his prickly nature, Ari doesn’t mind hugs. He’s got a little brother and sister he watches out for, so while he doesn’t like his personal space invaded by strangers or anyone he isn’t close to, if Moth gets close enough he can hug Ari all he wants. So…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Thank you!! <33 I was pressured to finish the drawings quickly and it seems that I thrive off pressure

Don’t know if he’s ADHD…. but yes. That’s exactly what he does do…..

Then that will be my official headcanon. I believe Wolfgang is ADHD, he just happens to be from a time where no one would know that.

I have these Moth sketches from a few days ago. I didn’t clean them up or anything (the ink brush was uncontrollable!) but you get the gist of what he looks like. I think he should be paler and not quite so golden, so imagine these sketches have intense lighting or something.

LeQoi!! My favorite side character. All the food metaphors make me happy. LeQoi is almost scary, and I know he would scare me if he existed in real life, but it’s really just a side effect of his creative passion

@koshka

Would it help if Moth found out Ari isn’t entirely human?

It might. He cares very quickly about other people, but he gets ignored a lot. His world is filled with unfeeling faeries, eldritch gods, monsters, etc. who don’t need connections and relationships to thrive. Moth is just a little dude who wants to hug other fantastical beings but…[Read more]

Now, for sometime in the early morning…..

Dun dun dunnnnnnn….

LeQoi

How easily people boiled over. A little heat, a little pressure…a few fortunate slips of the tablespoon.

The Master chef stared at the radish faced man before him. The fellow’s doctor’s coat and hair were quite rumpled. How unprofessional.

The man frowned. “Ar…[Read more]

Ari

His bare feet whispered over the roof tiles. Starlight reflected silver flecks in his dark eyes.

Starlight. He reached up to brush a few longer locks of hair behind his ear. The balcony below him waited. But he was tired and didn’t feel like climbing.

Ari sat down at the edge, turned into his stomach, and slid off. A last minute grip on the…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Would it help if Moth found out Ari isn’t entirely human?

Also, poor guy. He needs hugs and a big fluffy bed to disappear into.

Lucille

As the adults checked on sleepy Mel, Lucy had an idea. She wandered over to her desk – a small, ash-colored piece of furniture with all of her papers and her typewriter stacked on the side. It was much neater in comparison with the mess underneath it.

A part of her wanted to sit down and do her homework; do…[Read more]
