Harry!! 🤣

Is he a gecko?

@ellette-giselle

Here I am changing names on the fly. I can’t decide which one I like best. XD

Wilhelm’s religion is finally developing, in all it’s weird twists.

Wilhelm

“King Arthur?” Wilhelm looked up from piling cheese on a piece of bread. “No, I canna say I have. We do not serve the kings of men. Haven’t for ages, since the Order of the…[Read more]

Wilhelm

He smiled to himself. Shampagne sounded foreign and frivolous. Not anything like his home. He dragged a box out from under the narrow bed in the far corner and began rummaging in it. Out came the flask of mead, set on a tray.

“It smells nice here.” Wolfgang’s voice brought Wilhelm’s head around. Wilhelm shr…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Sorry I dropped off. Yesterday was a busy day.

Wilhelm

They wound their way through the dormitory halls. It was curious how many different kinds of doors there were. Every suite seemed to have a theme. Some where magnificent and obviously had large interiors judging from the lack of other doors beside them. Others were more…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yeah, his people do not believe in coddling childhood innocence.

Wilhelm

For a moment he debated taking his leave there in the passage. Yet, as he turned to look at Wolfgang, he thought he might like this strange, too tall, too golden boy. Wolfgang might be a little full of himself, and Wilhelm suspected he lacked the kind of…[Read more]

WoRLd bUiLdInG!

@ellette-giselle @whalekeeper

Oh boy.

Wilhelm

He slid his arm out of Wolfgang’s, although he kept walking the same direction.

“I do not like that man, and I certainly do not trust him, but I will not listen to you talk like that.” The words rattled in Wilhelm’s throat, but he kept his tone steady. “It is wicked to slight authority. Deathly…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

I am afraid my characters often have a stubborn, independent streak. Wilhelm has it so badly. XD Once something is in his head, it is not coming out. Which means it will be interesting if he and Wolfgang do become friends, as I suppose they would both have stubborn streaks.

Wilhelm

“Coming?” Wilhelm studied…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @ellette-giselle

Ugh. I just did my final exam, and part way through realized I had somehow missed listening to four lectures.

This Raun fellow now, hmm. I would hate to get headaches from people’s paper cuts. XD Wilhelm is going to be flabbergasted.

Wilhelm

His hand! Wilhelm stared at it, momentarily losing contact with what was…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Nice! It’s scary when stuff acts up. I’m glad it worked out!

*Takes note of recipe* Thanks!

@ellette-giselle @whakekeeper

Wikhelm (continued)

“None of that. I will not have stair injuries on the first night.” The man looked fit to kill. Wilhelm forced himself not to look away, but to take the reprimanded withoit shrinking. He dipped his head.

“Yes, sir.” Best not to aggregate the situation while it was still relatively mild.

@whalekeeper

That works. XD

I can write a continuation of mine to make it fit.

Did that double for y’all too?

@ellette-giselle

I was thinking it was like cordials. XD

Wilhelm

Yes, he had read about some nobility who did not punish their children, thinking that the rod was only meant for servants  but rarely hearing “no-“! That was unfathomable. He gaped.

“I think there could be many people who could get any of us in trouble. There are guards here for…[Read more]

Then here’s the link to the homeschoolers recipe: h ttps://store.homeschoolinthewoods.com/blogs/words-from-the-woods/how-to-make-mead

I’m wondering if there would be a way to making it like switchel or kombucha, so it would be fizzy like it appears to be in its poisonous (alcohol) form. Some natural carbonation…. But anyway,…[Read more]

@rae

Foraging is fascinating. Definitely please tell us how the next bit goes!

@whalekeeper

FUDGE? Ooooo. It looks deliciously fudgy.

@ellette-giselle

It seems to have!

For aesthetic practical reasons, I’ve decided that Wilhelm was in a back passage before. I’m guessing this is something like a statement staircase.

Wilhelm

“I have never done it before. We don’t have them like this back home.” He laughed a little, despite himself. “I was going to my rooms, but I don’t mind…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ahahhahhahahha!

Thank you for sharing that. Stairs are terrifying.
