uh yeah! Poor kid needs it!
(I gotta work a Leo into his actual book.)

he’s gotta enough hands! Pfft!

Rory

Rory smiled slightly. Sometimes Leo’s words completely flummox him, but Rory had learned to read tone and body language over words long ago. He wasn’t exactly sure what Leo meant, but he understood the tone.
“so… what do you ne…[Read more]

@koshka

Rory shrugged. “I don’t know what siblings are supposed to look like. I don’t even know if I have any of my own.” He shrugged again and picked out a few more screws. “Quincey is a fortunate boy,” he said, softly.

@koshka

Rory

Most People would have been taken aback. But not Rory. Leo’s story sounded pretty normal. In fact, better than what he’d always known.
but one thing snapped our attention him like the crack of a whip. “Wait a moment… Quincey isn’t related to you? I thought you said he was your brother!”

@freed_and_redeemed

I like the changes!! I’d just caution you to have more new conflicts than old. It’s easy to fall into the old loop. Instead think of challenges they will face as they try to build a friendship, rather than a loop of old struggles.

Just a little heads up! (I’ve had to learn the hard way and I hoped to pass on some of that…[Read more]

Also Brian, Kevin, Julie, Terry

@theducktator Found these when I looked up popular gen X names 

@whalekeeper

haha, well, I am a lover of well done death scenes. Especially if the characters and author is a Believer, otherwise it’s a little depressing.

hmmm, well, I just can’t stand cheesy rescue/escape scenes.

uh… let’s see.
Faramir. Don’t know if you’ve read LOTR, but his rescue and recovery makes sense. Gandalf saved him, and Pippin…[Read more]

@koshka

Rory 

Rory stopped sorting the bolts and screws and looked up at Leo. “Why? What happened?” For some reason he had sensed something familiar in this young man. He pushed off the couch and slid to a sitting position on the floor next to Leo. “Ever since I first met you… you seemed to me like a soldier. What are you doing down here?” h…[Read more]

@theducktator

Don’t. Get. Me. Started.
I am the person who is furious at the end of a book when my favorite character doesn’t die!! Why? Because the author cheated to save him! The mastermind villain makes a “mistake”. The unbreakable jail cell has a weakness no one who has been trying to break out for the last hundred years has discove…[Read more]

@theducktator   @koshka

I love that boy more than either of you will ever know. I love him desperately. In fact, I only ever loved Prince Friedrich, Leon, and Julian as much as him. (Though I do really adore the MCs for CR)

it’s because I love him so much that terrible things happen. He is courageous and strong,(even though it doesn’t seem…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium

YIPPY!!! I love it!! Thank you so much!!
you did a great job!

@theducktator

dying is by far not the worst thing that can happen. (Or does happen to him) 

@liberty

yes I know!!!
we just crossed the boarder and ate three hours away from home! I can’t wait!!

@hybridlore

oh goodness no! I wasn’t upset at all.
honestly, I won’t get upset unless you insult a family member. I might be hurt if you said something really mean to me, but my anger only gets aroused in defense of my clan. 😉

@loopylin
lol. Me too!!

@koshka

ouch!! I’m not that mean to him.
🤣

Rory 

Rory began dropping all of the screws in a bucket, but his eyes constantly returned to Leo’s face as the older boy talked.
“what sort of things did you design?” He asked, his voice still quiet with hesitant caution.

@koshka @ellette-giselle I’m loving all the wholesome Leo and Rory moments 🩷

@whalekeeper hehe

writing rps where my characters are ticked off is always super fun, but then I feel instantly embarrassed after I post them.

@rae

Dante has officially been added to Alpha’s possible threat list….

lol there goes Dante’s free rent. At least he’s not underestimating him anymore.

@koshka

Rory 

Rory looked up, interested. And for once, he didn’t keep it in check. “Did you ever use a laser welder?”

@koshka

Rory

Rory gave Leo a cautious smile and took the screw. He looked it over, feeling the ribbed sides. “These are to hold things together, aren’t they?”
