LOL hearing the slang in Lucy’s world from her is cute.

😛 Many of the people living around Lucy are young men who work in the factories or the fields, and she sometimes talks with them when they’re in the soup kitchens. I still haven’t decided how different the Outer Fields teenage culture is from the more populated city areas…[Read more]

@loopylin

Moth could explain what a robot is, but he doesn’t know very well himself.

Moth

The faerie continued walking. “It came with Lois Thorne. A quiet metal man, it was. Perhaps he commanded it to go into these gardens. I do not know why.”

@loopylin

Moth

“Ghosts can walk, although they cannot leave footprints. It might be a Neighbor, taking hold of a physical vessel. But that is unlikely. It is most likely a machine.”

Moth stopped short. “Ah, I remember. I saw a machine yesterday night.”

@loopylin

Moth

Moth collected some of the cotton-like fluff from the reeds and made a palm-sized nest on the ground. He laid the bird there. Then he started walking, speeding up to a quick stride. “You coming, Stormwatcher?”

@rae

Not to mention he’s been abused by the people of his own home that he’s more willing to trust a complete stranger not from the island than a villager from it.

Yeah that makes sense.

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?

It’s a fun coi…[Read more]

@loopylin

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

I won’t say anything, then.

Moth

Ellis voice had grown a touch uncomfortable. His eyes, which had glowed icy blue a minute ago, were scanning the reeds.
He could be right. This was just how nature worked. But the bird might have been killed unnaturally.
Moth went back to stu…[Read more]

Moth

“Why? Did you have a vision, just then? Was it…”

Moth stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the bird’s body. He picked it up and cradled it to his chest, brushing its head feathers with his fingers. The poor thing was still warm.

@loopylin

He was looking down at a new set of footprints in the snow. They were barefoot and small like a child’s.

I’m so invested. I have a theory

Can Moth sense other things like fairy vs human souls? I’m curious about his abilities now

Moth antennae are really cool in regular nature. They have a great sense of smell and they can track down…[Read more]

@koshka

I get it. The ramblings must be understandable before you share them with someone. 😛

@koshka

Oh my goodness, that reminds me, you sent the first chapter of Tap Fairies to me and I don’t think I reacted. *Sigh* I’m a bad friend. I read it and I liked it very much. Especially the librarian.

Do you want help brainstorming? Even if you don’t need help right now, I offer my aid anytime.

@koshka

Which story are you working on?

@loopylin

I still like the ship name Winter Rose since you last showed me this. It’s so cute. Also, that drawing is Fel is pretty good imo.

@koshka

Oh no. 😟 *Pats your shoulder comfortingly* I know how that feels. I will stay here with you for moral support.

@loopylin

Moth

”I don’t know.” Moth shrugged. “I’m not very good at distinguishing between levels of being. This thing with feet might have a soul, but it has no organic body.”

@keilah-h

Oh yeah, that’s the normalest thing for your characters. Not weird in the slightest.

They are chaos and quiet mornings and two kinds of bravery and a good cup of tea.

I love this way of summarizing them

@koshka

Well… I assume the prints belong to the SIAS unit. @loopylin please correct me if I’m wrong, and I’ll change what Moth said

@elishavet-pidyon

:]

@loopylin

Moth

“That is a great gift, nevertheless. You are fortunate to have your own family line to guide you. A forecaster…” The Shaffers had once shown Moth a weather forecast. It seemed such a hard thing to predict when storms were born. The weather of wild human spirits must be even harder to predict.

Moth held…[Read more]

@rae

Happy birthday!! Congrats on living this long!

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

This is why I call him oblivious.

Ah. That explains it.

(Lucy’s reaction to such an episode would be interesting, as she would completely break or try to keep him together. I can see it going either way personally.)

I’m n…[Read more]

“That’s wicked,” Moth breathed. “Can you see someone’s fate just by looking at him?”
