*Comes in guns blazing* I shall defend Eric if needs must.

@theducktator @ellette-giselle

If we are going to compare a Narnia character to Eric, I think Eustace is a better fit. He and Eric are both kind of wimpy. And Eustace becomes a dragon.

Though I understand why you would grab Edmund, since Edmund betrays his family.

@ellette-giselle

They’re names are German! This is where you start to feel some of the German cross– beyond the complection. (Leon and Julian are also German names. Julian being the German version of Julius, which is very Roman. Little glimpse into the world of naming which is an obsession of mine.)

Ah. That’s a good idea.

Thank you for the pro…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I can see the dilemma. I think it is good that Leon and Julian are trying a more subtle approach. I think @hybridlore‘s suggestion is good. They wouldn’t have to lie then.

But they are going to have to come out with the truth eventually.

Leon and Julian might not necessarily take the correct option first as well. It might be…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

In this chapter, you did a better job of showing Leon and Julian are in a place they used to call home. And I’m not just referring to their comments upon seeing the village in the valley. Their interactions with the Klein family, falling right into the traditions, showed this even better than their words.

I like the feel of the…[Read more]

A possible option for them is to say they prefer worshipping in private, then they’ll obviously worship God and not the idols. But that is pretty close to a lie already and I don’t see that working more than once or twice. Probably the best thing for them to do is to just tell them.

@ellette-giselle

I think it’s fine. They have to, in this instance, instead of just jumping at it when they don’t need to. Since Elishavet was the one who pointed that out, I would wait to see what she thinks, but I think that it’s fine.

@the_lost-journal

How do you say Ahava? Uh-hah-vah? I like it (well, I guess I shouldn’t say that when I don’t know how it’s actually pronounced, but it looks like it would sound pretty 😅). If you like it and can’t think of any particular reasons not to keep it, I’d say go with it.

As for Thomas… hmm… is there a certain style/ethnicity of…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Yes?

@ellette-giselle

What section? Kingdom Pen, why didn’t you tell me about this? *Goes back to read*

@theducktator

I’m not sure I like that last comparison. Kalmar is amazing, and Eric…drives me crazy. No offense. I’m just still mad he betrayed Martha.

Who would you compare Eric to then?

@whalekeeper

You know what, I changed my mind. The more I think of it, I should have done this:

@keilah-h

Alan looks a good deal less….bookish?…..than Alcatraz (where did he get THAT name anyway? Who wants to be named after an island with a jail on it?) though

Alcatraz was named after Alcatraz the First, a famous occulator who lived around the same time that the pyramids were built. Alcatraz’s family frequently uses these traditional nam…[Read more]

@anyone what classes do you want to do?

Barnes is overseeing some literature-related class, so there’s that

@theshadow

Emery, Colin, Jehan, Girard, Philippe, Lorin, Perrin, Nicolas, Richart and Olivier are French.

Some German ones are Alexander, Konrad, Hermann, Heinrich, Emmerich, Berthold, and Christian.

@savannah_grace2009

Hey girl, sorry I haven’t really read more of your WIP yet.  I’ve been pretty busy (which is why I kind of vanished for a few days). I’ll try to read some more and get you some feedback sometime this week.

Um, yes!! I would love to see aesthetics!! You don’t even have to ask, girl. XD

@ellette-giselle

Okaaaaay, after I give them some decent shading. But only then. *Glares at your blackmail and poofs away*

@ellette-giselle

It’s very funny…. but as I work through my WWII set, I’ve just had an amazing idea for a fantasy. I wonder it WWII triggers fantasy ideas…….. lolololol.

*Meanwhile I sit here with a WWII era inspired fantasy, watching you talk* 😁
