Whatever you like! I would love to hear your ideas. (Or should that be read?)

Disclaimer: I’m definitely still a student of Russian anything, and names are one of those things that are described as ‘very difficult for RSL’. Please take whatever I say with a grain of salt.
What exactly do you mean by context? Female or male? Tense in a sentence?
Diminutive forms are like nicknames, only someone…[Read more]

XD Wow. XD
That was so cringey but hilariously cute at the same time.
Santa Claus?! XD
*Wipes tears of laughter from eyes*
I’m really not sure how to critique it. The prose is a little choppy, but the story itself is distracting me. XD
Candy cane fingerprints!? XD A magically appearing mistletoe? (That particular bit was pure…[Read more]

That was like a Hallmark movie, only even better! XD
The candy cane fingerprint was probably the funniest thing for me.

That’s happened to me for the past few years of church camp, and I have no idea why! Some random boy I’ve never even seen before walks up to me and asks if I have a boyfriend.
And, uh…I really don’t see why. I’m not the most friendly girl out there ( for instance, my normal resting face is very serious, almost a…[Read more]

The twins
Zlatan had to force his hand away from his sword hilt, stretch out the fingers in an effort to calm himself down. That man…if he were here now…he pulled in a deep breath and clasped his hands behind his back.
“Yes. Ve need to move on, to look for zem.” He looked over at November. “Zere are many people in zis place…[Read more]

So, most male Russian names that end in an ‘a’ are diminutive forms, so I’ll put the original name and it’s diminutive down.
Alyosha (Aleksey): Russian form of Alexis, meaning helper, defender.
Afonya (Afanasiy): Russian form of Athanasius, meaning Immortal.
Borya (Boris): Russian name meaning short, wolf, or snow leopard.

Vulkasin
He grinned, putting his knife back into it’s sheath. “Den Rozhdenia, or day of birth. That’s all I’ve ever heard it called.”
Of course, it wasn’t something that celebrated; the only birthday most even took notice of was the seventh, the day a…[Read more]

November, you didn’t do anything wrong!!
The Twins
How in all the earth? Time changing castles…Zlatan rubbed his forehead as if the motion would help sort things out. It didn’t.
“A-Anyway…” Novembré tugged at his hair, “I guess time just…passes differently for others when it comes to the castle. You two don’t look like yo…[Read more]

Aww…
The Twins
Zlatan’s eyes twinkled faintly at his brother. “Looks like you’re not ze only v’one zat grows, Vulka.”
About to slap his brother’s shoulder, Vulkasin barely remembered in time to change it for a light pat on the head. The golden eyes turned to molten slits at him, then rolled to the ceiling.
Vulkasin grinned…[Read more]

Alrighty, here goes.
Zlatan
The floor was littered with dirt and debris from the cave in, whirlwind, thing. He stepped carefully, not wishing to bring his foot down on a sharp rock. The darkness around them grew bleaker.
Thicker. Almost tangible.
Zlatan loosened his sword in its scabbard.
It grew dimmer, then suddenly began…[Read more]

There of some things in life which one takes for granted, such as the well known fact that stone cannot move itself, and as a general rule never behaves like water when perfectly cool. Or that light doesn’t randomly flash without a source.

Ok! Unfortunately, I don’t have any of Reúven. But I’ll try to fix that. For now, just know that he looks a lot like Viktor, only with dark, red-brown hair, and his face is more… Chiseled? I really don’t know how to describe him. 🤦♀️
But for Viktor, for now…
So, his eyes are darker – almost black – but otherwise this is…[Read more]

Oh, I’ve mistagged people so much. XD most of the time I’m actually kind of scared to tag people, especially when joining a conversation for the first time.
And when it comes to posts…? 😬

And, since I really don’t want to spam, and some this is also the last face claim I have for Kingdom of Shadows – unless you call a suit of armor a face claim – I’ll stop after Winifrith for now.
I actually have a handful for her, which makes choosing hard. XD

Now, her father, a character I didn’t expect to become an MC until I suddenly realized he was already.
Alwin.
And unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of him when he’s older, except for a silhouette of his profile.
