Gabriel knelt by Lucy. “Tell me what’s wrong. Lucy?”

Idk, what else to write, sorry 🙁

@whalekeeper

Lol iss fineeee. There’s a reverse basilisk somewhere. I just wanted to see if it was possible to scare Keilah’s charries hehe

@whalekeeper

Gabriel Mai

As he walked on, Gabriel was internally debating if it was safe for Lucy to have a hatchet or not. When she was carrying his knife, she was careful, but that was briefly. Now she was toting a dangerous little blade with her like a trinket. As they passed through the rooms, Gabriel took some leather and a sewing kit he…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I’m good with anything that happens as long as Lucy stays with Gabriel. She’d be none too happy if they got separated

Gabriel feels the same, though he might have a more violent reaction than her if they got separated. Violent of the “kill everything” type.

@loopylin

Not that your characters would know this, but, just clarifying, the labyrinth doesn’t have an owner. It’s sort of sentient on its own, kinda, and more like a force of nature than anything else.

Yep! I know, but Gabriel most definitely would assume there’s a person behind this, not a bunch of crazy night owl writers lol…[Read more]

@whalekeeper thanks!

@loopylin it’s fine don’t worry!

@loopylin I’d be good with that. My characters might not though, they’ll be super confused.

@rae @whalekeeper if Loopy pulls her charries, you mind if my three join your party?

@loopylin @whalekeeper

so we got:

1: Felicity

2: Kefa’s cat prince

3: Mel

4: Kefa’s split personality character

5: Not sure who this is

6: Huntress

7: Sniper

8: Soldier?

9: Gabriel

10: Barnes

@whalekeeper

Oh yeah that totally works. None of what you guys have written has gone against what I imagined at all so far. I just wanted to say something just in case.

@whalekeeper i love that poem hehe

I think I can pick out Huntress and Sniper plus Kefa’s removed characters. Who are the rest?

@rae @whalekeeper

suspecting the owner of the labyrinth might be in the house.

Not that your characters would know this, but, just clarifying, the labyrinth doesn’t have an owner. It’s sort of sentient on its own, kinda, and more like a force of nature than anything else.

@whalekeeper

Okay, glad you’re alright.

Also, I like the poem

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

As Lucy read the poem, the voices grew louder, hissing their jargon in his mind. He wanted to shout at them to stop, but kept his voice silent, not wishing to disturb Lucy.

“That’s alright, thank you. You read much better than I.” Gabriel tried to keep h…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

I hope your hand is okay!

but, yeah, I get how baking gets busy

@whalekeeper

Make something up, i literally have as much plan as I did with the piano lol.

@whalekeeper @loopylin @theducktator

On further thought, I’ll put in Viktor’s reaction. Not intending to mess up the role play turns. 🫣

Viktor

Trash talk. Fun… Viktor grinned back at Marcel.

“Maybe. But if you manage that, we must deserve it.” He blinked in that completely not innocent way that would give away the sarcasm, mouth twitching…[Read more]

Gabriel Mai

“Yes, I see…” Gabriel walked to a set of drawers in a corner, picking up a book from on top. He opened the pages, a pressed, dried flower falling out, rocking to the floor. Gabriel bent and picked it up, then showed it to Lucy. Purple petals, and a white and yellow center. He put it back in the book, then tried to read…[Read more]

@whalekeeper lol nope, never seen that one before. I guess we were really in sync or something.

@whalekeeper

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel kept walking in silence. Without any information, he could do no more but worry about their predicament. After a time, the hallway opened into another room. Gabriel froze, pulling Lucy back. Lit candles flickered on a table inside the room. Gabriel pressed himself against the wall of the hallway b…[Read more]

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel smiled. “I didn’t know there was a feminine version. Your home sounds so different than mine. I wonder if the entire world is so different. I’ve always wondered what’s beyond the sea that isolates my home, but we aren’t allowed to leave.”

His foot stepped on a rotten floorboard, causing him to s…[Read more]

The Protector — Gabriel Mai

Gabriel paused. “I suppose. When I don’t wear my mask, I’m merely a strange peasant. When wearing the mask, people think I’m a hero. They say I’m probably some rich knight who decided to dedicate themselves to protecting the people from afar. They never suspect that the real man behind the mask s…[Read more]
