Moth

“We’ll find it. Come.” Moth put down his things and left by the archery range entrance, slowing to make sure he was being followed.

We’re back in business! Good to see you around! <3 What have you been up to?

This is awesome news to come back to!

Aww, I love sibling dynamics. I can tell those are brother and sister. And not just because they have matching outfits, although those are fab.

Ok here we go, Jasper can speak. Sorry for his insulting(ish) assumption here.

Jasper

“Have you been to war, Wolfgang?” Jasper asked the question in a friendly, less weighted voice. There was little chance the boy had.

*Stamp of approval* I think I like the Stormwatcher brothers one and the Ari one best.

maybe they’re scared off by our goofiness

Ari

Moth wilted a little. Ari looked away, but he could still feel the fairy boy’s petal-blue eyes. His skin prickled. He glanced at Ellis without expecting anything helpful from that quarter.

Bother.

A sigh chuffed out of his lungs.

“What type of science class am I going to?”

Those cats. Gracious.

They kinda fit too. XD

Yeeaaah that’s true. :-p They could easily turn sour towards each other. And that’s okay. No problem with little skirmishes.

Koshka, I was a little mentally exhausted last night, and when I tried to write, this collection of images suddenly flashed in my mind. I’m afraid I saw our characters as these cats.

Moth

“Come with us, Ari.” Moth let his antennae droop, just a little.

I feel like if it weren’t for Moth, Ari and Ellis would probably not get along.

I feel this is true. Probably more than is good. XD

Ari

His eyes narrowed at Ellis’s back a moment, but the question seemed innocent enough.

“I was not unwilling.” It was nice, after all, to still be breathing. “But of course, no knowledge m…[Read more]

Oh my.

Ari

Go with them, to a stuffy, windowless room full of stuffy, young princes? He looked askance at the two boys.

“A asfendë, Firefly. I do not think…” A teacher’s wide, frozen smile flashed to mind. “I happen to be one of those who wishes for classes. And those classes certainly do not wish for me.”

He…[Read more]

Moth

“Yes. I will go to your science class. And Ari will come with us.”

Welp, let’s hope this one doesn’t go haywire.

Ari

Ah, yes. Most students here did regularly attend classes. Ari nodded, his lips twitching at Moth’s antics.

“There are classes for those who wish for them.”

It wasn’t as if he never attended a class. There was choir, and…well, there was choir. Why should he go sit in a…[Read more]

I appreciate this! When things get heated. . . it makes me feel blah. 🤣

Understandable. 😅 It always makes me feel bad too. Don’t worry about it.
I appreciate the verses as reference! Thank you for your perspective. It’s always interesting to read about. And it is good to hear other people’s personal stories.
This might feel like I’m…[Read more]

Yayy, he caught them both off guard

Moth

Ari and Ellis were almost smiling; that was easy to sense. Inwardly, Moth couldn’t help but glow. He kept a firm countenance.

He lifted his bow one last time. “If I make this, Ari must pay homage to my superior skills.”

Unfortunately for him, his arm’s strength gave out before he co…[Read more]

Ducktator is just a bit younger.

It’s so weird being one of the young people.  Most of my friends are 1-3 years younger than me. XD

CONGRATULATIONS! That’s wonderful! 😃🩷

Also, just out of curiosity, are you going to keep your name since you’ve published under it? I’ve been wondering what would happen in a situation like this, lol.

Regardless of actual age, you are the KP grandma

Hmmm.

@ellette-giselle

That was me for at least a year, maybe longer. Wyoh takes on different forms for each of us.

@writingwren

Helloooo! You’ve already gotten so many intros that I don’t want to keep you.

I’m Whaley. I write retro science-fiction/fantasy. I’m the kind of writer who spends hours frantically scribbling world details and evil plot plans on a giant whiteboard. As some people can tell you, I frequently go overboard and frequently create…[Read more]

WhEn DiD EvErY OnE GrOw Up!!!!???

I think most of us OGs are college-age right now. Ducktator is just a bit younger. My 20th birthday is about to hit me and Loopy is like, ancient.

I’m going to be a wife in November!

It’s crazy. I’m going to be an adult in December…

Moth is right. They are both kind. Trivial things have insurmountable value.

Indeed. Such things can be very meaningful to someone else, even if no one else knows it.

@loopylin

You didn’t answer my question

I love you and will always be happy to support and pray with you as my friend.

That is very sweet of you to say, Elishavet. I also love you. I appreciate this and I am always willing to do the same for you. <3

Also totally willing to answer questions to the best of my ability.

I will keep that in mind. And thank you for your…[Read more]

Ari

Kind? Moth thought he was kind? The fairy king really hadn’t been around many people.

Still, his face softened, eyes bright, as he slid his last arrow into his quiver. No one had ever called him kind.

His full quiver bounced against his hip as he walked back. He glanced at Ellis, then picked up his own bow. So…[Read more]

Moth

“I cannot believe I have people to talk to. It is odd to say, but I am not accustomed to this — this spoiled lifestyle. Being with people — doing things, having small conversation — to everyone else this is normal, but for me… Perhaps it sounds silly, but these trivial things are rare to me. Thank you both for asking my…[Read more]

HA don’t expect anything too silly

@loopylin

O.O

Did they disappear?

Ari says yes. I don’t know what to RP for him saying that though.

@loopylin @koshka

“May I say something that is a little embarrassing for me?”

Yes.

Moth

Moth looked from Ellis to Ari, and set down his bow as well. “May I say something that is a little embarrassing for me?”

Hey! Quick question, since you’re talking about the Holy Spirit!

I’ve had friends and acquaintances who say that you have to experience Holy Spirit through a sign like speaking in tongues, and if you don’t, you aren’t saved. There’s also the alternate belief that you can be saved without the Spirit, but the ideal place in…[Read more]

My mother was, though

Is she dead?

@ellette-giselle

Ah, yes, me when writing last night

I don’t listen to much Christian music (outside of a couple things) because I haven’t seen much stylistic range.

Nice to know I’m not the only one. 😅

Greetings! I’m The Ducktator! Did you get your username from the Roger Hargreaves book? Those books were my childhood. I write fantasy mostly, and I also enjoy reading, dancing, birding, politics, and history. Compiling outfits is the best. I’m really into heels right now. I only own two pairs though because money. 😭 I want a…[Read more]

Homeschool for the win!😃 I’m The Ducktator, homeschool senior and writer of fantasy! I also enjoy reading, history, dancing, birding, and politics!

Chocolate chip is classic. Most of my family would agree with you about the syrup, but I love syrup and chocolate. XD

My dream car is a sleek, black limo with my own personal driver that will drive me to and from company events. Everyone will be required to wear sunglasses inside of it.

That sounds amazing.

Ari

His eyebrow rose, but he made no other response. The statement didn’t seem to require one.

He hadn’t meant to give advice, only observe. Warn maybe. Why did you even open your mouth, Verenion?

No matter. He reached for his quiver.

It was empty. Perfect.

With a muttered, “don’t shoot me yet,” he set down his bow…[Read more]

*panicking because I haven’t actually decided what exactly Ellis is*

*Pained laughter because this is too relatable*

The boy’s mother? That was more human then, more than Ari’s blood.

No, the Elder are only cursed.
