Moth

Ari swore from where he stood, and Moth chuckled inwardly.

The soil churned with the smallest of its living citizens. The sound was too much for them to bear. They rose from sleep, their long, slithery bodies glittering under the moon.

Moth steadied his stance and let out a high-pitched, piercing cry.

A giant worm burst out of…[Read more]

And that was a very short reply to such a beautifully long role play. I shall aspire to do better.

@whalekeeper

Ari

Thunder rolling in the earth quivered up from his feet to his spine. The ground shook, cracked. Changed.

Ari swore–fervently. He had the sense that more devout people would have prayed. But considering they were all dead…

He swore again.

If he didn’t already prefer having his eyes and tongue inside his head, being lost to his family was almost appealing.

I knew Ari was going to say that. Goodness, child. Equal parts sassy and sad

@koshka

Moth

Ari wasn’t easily disturbed by jokes. That was a good sign. Although he already seemed like a brave person and there was no reason to doubt it, he also had no idea what Moth’s life was like. But then again, maybe the two boys had more similarities to uncover. Who was to say?

“We are… Hold on.” Moth muttered. He crouched down. “I…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ari

That was…oddly specific. And like nothing he’d heard of before.

If he didn’t already prefer having his eyes and tongue inside his head, being lost to his family was almost appealing. He shrugged.

“That sounds uncomfortable. So what are doing?”

@koshka

Moth

“I was making fun of you mortals. If I was not as I am, I would lead you into faerie land, pluck your eyes and tongue, and you would be lost to your family forever.” Moth shrugged.

Erp. If this was a generation or two later, you’d really freak him out. As it is…

Ari

His eyes narrowed, but in confusion not anger.

“Human?” He shook his head. Another word he didn’t quite know the meaning of. “Do you mean mortal, children of the cursed? Or just the dust born in general?”

And what did his creation heritage have to do…[Read more]

@loopylin

Callum

“Huh.” Callum felt just as confused as Ellis had to feel. “It sounds like a crazy dream. I hope it’s not perfectly replicating what’s going to happen.”

He stumbled over the last couple words and lapsed into silence. The gold rings in his hair clinked together as he bowed his head. He stared at his hands, then at the ground to t…[Read more]

@koshka

Moth

Not much time passed before a familiar, dark-headed boy appeared around the corner.

“Ari! I don’t know if we’re meant to be this far outside at night.” Moth pointed towards the greater expanse of land, hedges and small trees making up most of it. “We have to go farther.”

They walked casually through the dark, grassy grounds. Ari…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

XD

Ari

Moth disappeared through the roof in a last swirl of gold and dust. Silence settled in the shadows.

He hadn’t realized how much the bright younger boy had chased those shadows away. At least for a little while. Ari turned his back on the darkened room.

Time to break curfew. Again. The stairs creaked under his feet as he…[Read more]

@theshadow

Huntress

Azalea pressed down on a part of the wall, and it slid open, revealing another tunnel. This one sloped downward, lit by dim sconces like the one we’d first gone through.

“Here we go,” she said as we started down this pathway.

It was a lot longer than I’d assumed. Maybe it was like one of those freaky sci-fi stories with…[Read more]

@liberty

sounds good! I’ll do what I can before I leave out of town

III. Venice is close actually. Florence is the actual inspiration. Next chapter should have a more complete description of things since we won’t be so high above everything.

4. I will try to catch that next time.

f. Lyre-in. Like the musical instrument but with an extra syllable.

VII. I’ll try, I’ll try!

@ellette-giselle so, did it work?

@keilah-h

cool!

@koshka

If it helps, he does eventually figure things out and have a relatively happy life.

Ok, good. I’m glad he gets a balance of good and bad experiences.

Moth

“Good.” Moth was outside the window now, and he faced Ari through it, a cool wind flicking its ghostly fingers through his hair.

He gave the human boy a last nod before he stood up on…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

If it helps, he does eventually figure things out and have a relatively happy life.

Ari

Squeamish? He hesitated a moment, considering what that was supposed to mean. He’d hunted and cleaned deer, helped in the stables, and patched up uncountable injuries of his own. He’d even helped burry a few of his father’s political enemies, as…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I think you go to “adjust cast.”

Then, if you want to get rid of the images, select “text only” at the top. Change the names and genders of the characters to your characters’. You can also change the number of districts or characters in each district.
