Scoutillus Finch

I tried out a new style on Baron, both in hair and drawing.

I like both.

I decided to change his hair for at least while he stays with Jenna because it doesn’t make sense why he’d still not at least try to comb his hair.

What do you think?

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel smiled. “I didn’t know there was a feminine version. Your home sounds so different than mine. I wonder if the entire world is so different. I’ve always wondered what’s beyond the sea that isolates my home, but we aren’t allowed to leave.”

His foot stepped on a rotten floorboard, causing him to s…[Read more]

Gabriel paused. “I suppose. When I don’t wear my mask, I’m merely a strange peasant. When wearing the mask, people think I’m a hero. They say I’m probably some rich knight who decided to dedicate themselves to protecting the people from afar. They never suspect that the real man behind the mask s…[Read more]

NoOooo they’re making each other worse.

Lol. I’ll rp more later today. I have to write an email and do math for taxes and other lame adult stuff.

Dante

Dante’s stomach twisted, and he shifted uncomfortably.

“That was just a lie to get you in the door. You don’t want me as a brother, trust me.”

He saw the hurt look on Rory’s face, and his stomach twisted even further. He looked away.

Gabriel sheathed his blades. Now only the rune on his mask glowed, but he knew if the room tilted and they fell, his unsheathed blades could kill one of them. He grabbed Lucy’s hand, nervous about being separated again.

“Before this room shifts anymore, let’s get out of here.” He looked around the r…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

This was the second time someone had claimed him with that familial title. He was beginning to like it.

Aww <3

Dante

They shook hands, finally formally introduced.  Rory cocked his head to the side. “Brother…?”

Dante looked at him sharply, a bit confused. “Don’t call me that.”

The doctor came in, and treated his wounds. He…[Read more]

Gabriel flinched at the loud boom of the piano cover. He cast Lucy a glance, making sure she was okay, before peering inside the piano. “It does have strings.” He hit one of the keys, watching the hammer strike the corresponding string inside the piano, silently fascinated.

Eventually, he dropped his h…[Read more]

Dante

The hospital was close. Rory helped Dante walk to the bus stop, and then rode with him to the emergency room. Rory seemed tense and wary on the bus, but then, so was Dante. They picked a seat near the door, and kept an eye on the other passengers.

When they arrived, a nurse told them that a doctor was available to treat…[Read more]

So I’m thinking of the rules my school played with as a kid:

1. If someone catches a ball mid-air without fumbling it, the ref sends in one of their teammates who got out.

2. You can dodge or block a ball coming at you with another ball that you’re holding.

3. You start out with all the balls in the middle of the court, and everyone has to rush…[Read more]

Felicity

Shoes squeaked on the gym floor as Marcel’s team spread out. Felicity found a place somewhere in the middle of the gym. She did some arm stretches while eyeing the other team. There were a few people she recognized: Viktor, Lois, and one of the twins. She finished her stretches, and began b…[Read more]

I read it, and I have to say, it immediately captivated me.

Not only does the Prologue promise us a swash-buckling tale of heroics and battles, but I find the prose rather enjoyable. It definitely has that storyteller feel like Uncle Garth in Secondhand Lions (if anyone gets that movie reference). Maybe not exact, but it reminded me of…[Read more]

@koshka @whalekeeper

Thanks <3

@theducktator Ugh headaches are the worst. Stop looking at screens and drink some water. Hope you feel better soon <3

When Lucy tried to play the piano, Gabriel relaxed, realizing it was merely an instrument. He pressed a few keys exploratorily, sneezing as the dust traveled under his mask and into his nose. “Is it a magic instrument? Most the ones in my world are ones you have to blow wind through to work, or have s…[Read more]

@whalekeeper
I love how Lucy is wondering why there’s a piano in the room, while I’m over here like “It couldn’t be empty, and just a couch or chair is boring, so piano was the first thing I thought of”. Zero deep meaning just a brain who was trying to rp while listening to a streamer talk about a mech video game.

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

“A piano? This is a piano?”

Gabriel touched it gently, dust flying into the air. He jumped back defensively as an off-tune note rang in the air from the key he pressed.

“Is that normal?” He watched the piano like a curious kitten, not sure if they should attack, ignore, or play with it.

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel nodded. “Good.” He stood, the voices that still had been whispering in his head that day were quiet as he had bound up her arms, but now they returned, a constant noise slowly driving him insane.

Gabriel waved one of his glowing blades ahead. The walls were rough like brick, the floor with l…[Read more]

@rae Yesssss hehe

@theducktator I know lol, but that’s not as funny
