Yup, no family at all.

Yes.

I’m glad that makes sense.

@keilah-h

Ah, well that is the danger. Yes, they are one of the last remaining families. In fact, their dad and mom were the last couple married before the government shut everything down real hard.

Jonas and Ethan are not brother’s by blood. They were assigned to John…[Read more]

@koshka   @whalekeeper

Yup, he sure does.

Rory

Rory clapped his hand over his ear, startled by the sound of voices. He realized he was still wearing an ear piece and breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment he thought he’d literally lost it.

“Look, Anole can’t spot Skink.”

“What?” exclaimed Leo.

Rory jumped and turned toward him.

@whalekeeper

So what is the government specifically banning? Christian marriage? If so, why not just ban Christians?

Lol. They did.

The government isn’t okay with any relationship at all. The people are divided up into houses and the people living in your house are your fellow occupants. Then the government places children born by regulation into…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Okay, reproduction is allowed, but only through government selection.

Yes, I do have that under control.

If you define marriage as a promise to stay together, Ethan could still make a promise to his girl in front of his church, and it would be a marriage in the eyes of God. The government wouldn’t care about that. It might be t…

@whalekeeper

I feel like most of what you just said doesn’t really have much to do with the story………

What makes you think this is America?

Who said it was?

I sure didn’t.

The people of this country don’t have a choice. It’s do what the government says, or die.

Why would everyone give up as a group on heterosexuality?

It wasn’t so…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

I’m gonna kill you.

Lol.

I guess I’m just getting a taste of my own medicine.

*sighs*

btw, can you send me the link to your Pintrest account? I can’t find it anywhere.

@freed_and_redeemed

You’re killing me with that picture of Jezyk!

Ugh.

I’m not crying.

Nope.

Totally Not.

@freed_and_redeemed

LOVE IT!!!

@whalekeeper

Sure, go ahead and ask. This is still just in it’s first draft.

I have a couple other scenes with explanation so a may have already covered the questions you’re going to ask, but shoot anyways.

@whalekeeper @keilah-h

Yes, this is the “marriage one”

Okay, let me find that scene where Ethan talks to his dad all about it. The scene happened before the one with Ethan and Jonas.

That night, Ethan was unable to sleep. Despite being so tired he was ready to drop, his mind refused to let him rest, and thoughts ran dizzying circles in his…[Read more]

@grcr

Thank you!

@freed_and_redeemed

REALLY! Thank you so much!

Oh I’m so glad! That’s always how I imagined him, so I was hoping it’s how you did as well. Man, that drawing makes me tear up when I think about him.

@highscribeofaetherium

no prob.

@freed_and_redeemed

I think everyone sent in their drawings.

You ready to judge them?

FINALLY!

@keilah-h

UGH!!! IT’S NOT SENDING! I’VE SENT THIS FIVE TIMES SINCE YOU POSTED.

When Ethan finished praying, he remained on his knees. What lay before him seemed impossible. It was dangerous and could land him in prison or get him killed. He wasn’t sure which. The thought of what he was about to try to do was terrifying. However, he was r…[Read more]

@whalekeeper    @koshka   @raxforge

Yes, we’re still in the basement, but it’s up to Koshka to respond because Marcel and Rory both left off with questions for Leo.
Rax can’t come down to the basement because it’s restricted. He’ll have to catch Marcel when he comes back upstairs.

@elishavet-pidyon @koshka

wait wait wait.

Hang on.

Onnendel is blind? He’s the elf, right? How did that happen?

Did I miss a chapter where he went blind?

Otherwise, man, my hands were sweating, I don’t mind telling you. It was a lovely chapter and I can’t WAIT for the next part!

@highscribeofaetherium

Do you have a picture for @freed_and_redeemed

It’s past the judging deadline.

Lois

Once he turned a corner, Lois let the grin he had been holding in light up his face. He did a little fist pump and began walking faster. Everything in the past couple hours kept replaying in his mind, as he tried to process.

This is actually happening. I can’t believe it. I really owe you, Cloud Boy.
