whaley the great and terrible

That’s a joke.

Ari

His fingers brushed the next handhold. Just a little farther. He stretched, straining to reach the last inch till his gip caught on the rough circle. Good. He swung up, feeling out a higher foothold.

Sweat trickled down his back. Ari grinned at the sting of salt. Almost to the top.

Shouts below mixed with the squeak of shoes on tile. Swords…[Read more]

Wren

“No, you’re fine. It’s- that’s helpful.” Wren looked at him for a moment, lost in thought, before suddenly giving a start and opening her notebook. She scratched a few things down in shorthand.

“Do you, uh, have names? Of the people involved? Were’s the student who was targeted by the kidnappers? Is he doing alright…[Read more]

Ellis

Ellis returned the bow as best he could without letting go of Callum’s arm. He didn’t yet trust him to stand on his own.

“Prince Ellis Lysander Stormwatcher of Sinulon. And you?”

@whalekeeper

Ellis Stormwatcher 

Ellis exited the dining hall, his spirits and head held high. The food had been excellent, legendary even, and he had talked and laughed with a great group of boys his age. As he walked, reciting off his new friends’ names in his head to remember them, he nearly tripped over a book. He recovered his balance an…[Read more]

Wolfgang 

“I can swim and row and climb. I fence and I brought my sword with me. I do some grappling as well, and other hand-to-hand fighting. And I could shoot a gun! If I had one. I want one, but Papa keeps forgetting. At least, that’s what he says. I play the piano, I’ve played for years. I’m working on my masterpiece.…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

@elishavet-pidyon

sure you can share them if you like, either way. I may not get to this until next week as I am out of town over the weekend.

@grcr

Oh whoops, tags. @keilah-h @whalekeeper @rae

Mel

“Oh, okay…You don’t look like aliens…” Mel pulled her coat tighter around herself. She glanced over at Lucy just as Lucy and the other man glanced back at her.

She felt weird. She wished people would stop looking at her. But she also wanted a hug. Or a way back to her duck pond. Or a warmer coat. Or a cheese stick. She didn’t know.…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Can Ellis talk to Callum and Remi?

I love LeQroi

Except I don’t feel like roleplaying as him right now so just imagine he’s sulking in his room.

Wow. Okay. I love Remington so much.

However, he is influencing my sister. She just grabbed me by the shoulders and demanded I add a certain character because she believes it needs to happen.

And so, while I wait for the perfect moment to drop LeQroi’s next, here’s Ari, a character from the history of a WIP my sister and I have been developing…[Read more]

“Airplanes? Never heard of them. Le Qroi? Oh yeah our castle’s head cook loves that guy. She has his cookbook in its own special locked glass case at home.”

i just think it would be funny

World building idea: It would be funny if all the characters were mostly clueless about other countries and had no shared knowledge or culture except for LeQroi. His cooking is so legendary and world famous, that everyone knows about him no matter how isolated the country. He’s just that good.

@whalekeeper They’re like a golden retriever trying to befriend a terrified opossum hehe
