Mel
Mel stopped trying to hold it in and cried quietly into Lucy’s shoulder. She couldn’t tell if the grown-ups had obeyed Lucy’s command to close their eyes, but she felt comforted by the idea. Lucy squeezed a bit tighter. This was better than stinky crow feathers.
After a couple minutes which felt much longer, her…[Read more]

Gabriel

He didn’t show it on his face, but Gabriel was both stumped and upset that he couldn’t figure out what was bothering Mel. Were all little girls so confusing? How can you break down and not know why? Last time Lucy seemed emotionally overwhelmed she wanted to be alone, but then she got taken away. He…[Read more]

Huntress

Mel hid her face in her hands, looking very stressed.

Sniper appeared tense, as if he thought it was his fault she were upset. He stood up and backed away as Gabriel asked Mel what was wrong, leaping up to sit on a rock and watch where he couldn’t interfere.

I sat down next to him. “I don’t think she’s…[Read more]

@keilah-h I’m so sorry she’s not paying attention. I love reading the backstory/worldbuilding stuff, but Mel is a very tired and overwhelmed neurodivergent seven year old who doesn’t know what to do atm. She would find it so cool any other time. @whalekeeper @rae I promise I’m not trying to write a dramatic scene, lol. She’s just a tired kid.…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

if he name drops Rory….!!

lololololol, go ahead, he doesn’t know any better.

besides, how else will they meet.

I’m gonna hop in here.

@whalekeeper @loopylin @keilah-h

Gabriel

He didn’t know what to think of Mel, he was never around children very often before. He still couldn’t figure out Lucy most the time, what about Mel? Was she like Lucy? What would he do with two rash girls with little self-preservation skills? He hoped she wouldn’t wander off, or…[Read more]

Ellis

Ellis smiled at Remington, using his nice smile instead of his natural one, which was all crooked to one side.

“Pleased to meet you. And you as well… Callum? I think I heard?”

The boy made a sound that could have meant anything. Ellis took it as confirmation.

“I think you could use some fresh air. Should we step out…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

That’s a joke.

*Snort*

@whalekeeper

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]

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

@whalekeeper

Can Ellis talk to Callum and Remi?

@loopylin @rae @whalekeeper

Huntress

Mell giggled at Soldier as he tried to avoid Runt.

She then turned to me. “What, um… Who are you guys?”

I wasn’t exactly sure how to tell her what we were without freaking her out. “We’re, from, uh…a a galaxy really far from here.” I finally explained, trying to make it decently easy to understand. “We w…[Read more]

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

@whalekeeper

Remington just brought me so much unhinged joy. Thank you. XD That was splendid to read.

@whalekeeper That rp entry actually made me giggle and kick my feet as I read it, lol. I am in love with these characters.
