I was thinking it was like cordials. XD

Wilhelm

Yes, he had read about some nobility who did not punish their children, thinking that the rod was only meant for servants  but rarely hearing “no-“! That was unfathomable. He gaped.

“I think there could be many people who could get any of us in trouble. There are guards here for…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

mmm!!! It looks so good! It’s making me consider eating……

what recipe did you use?

@whalekeeper

he would deserve it, and not take it well. The amount of times he has been told “no” in his life could be counted on your hands.

@elishavet-pidyon

Hmm, it just looks like apple cider. Or at least, how we make it. except we drink it hot.

Wolfgang 

Wolfgang laughed out-right. “In trouble! I never get in trouble. Papa has told me no once or twice, but that’s the worst. Oh, and Peter smacked my hand when I was teasing Reinhard– he’s the only other one who dares to sm…[Read more]

Then here’s the link to the homeschoolers recipe: h ttps://store.homeschoolinthewoods.com/blogs/words-from-the-woods/how-to-make-mead

I’m wondering if there would be a way to making it like switchel or kombucha, so it would be fizzy like it appears to be in its poisonous (alcohol) form. Some natural carbonation…. But anyway,…[Read more]

@rae

Foraging is fascinating. Definitely please tell us how the next bit goes!

@whalekeeper

FUDGE? Ooooo. It looks deliciously fudgy.

@rae

OH MY WORD!! This is so cute!! Loopy has to see this!

are you taking requests by any chance….?

@whalekeeper

now that’s just being a tease, because now I have to imagine eating it. lololololololol

It looks like it turned out well! Did it?

@whalekeeper Oooo! Yummy! Me wants some!  

@elishavet-pidyonAhh, interesting. I should like to try this mead. (I am picturing that one side of the staircase has a wall running along it, and the other side has the banister with a hand rail. Possibly like this but with the banister a little higher and the staircase much longer and not really this color scheme) h t…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

It seems to have!

For aesthetic practical reasons, I’ve decided that Wilhelm was in a back passage before. I’m guessing this is something like a statement staircase.

Wilhelm

“I have never done it before. We don’t have them like this back home.” He laughed a little, despite himself. “I was going to my rooms, but I don’t mind…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

kp looks really weird…. i’ll see if this even goes through.

@whalekeeper

Haha!! Love that.

Wolfgang 

“Do you not like sliding down banisters?” He hopped up a couple more steps, then paused sideways, one foot a step higher than the other. “I won’t do it tonight if you’d rather not. I can do it in the morning. What are…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Ahahhahhahahha!

Thank you for sharing that. Stairs are terrifying.

@ellette-giselle

“No.” Wilhelm had to smile a bit. Now that his head had slowed its spin to something manageable, he felt he could be honest on that part. “A bit battered and off balance, but nothing dreadful. I’ll be better in a moment.”

He glanced back down the stairs. He wasn’t as tired as before. Fear always did wake him up. He grinned.

“I…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

lololol, oh dear. that doesn’t sound pleasant!

what?! Wolfgang is a darling! lololololol

Wolfgang 

“So we are both Wilhelms! That’s grand!” He jumped up for of the steps in only two strides. “But why go to the passage,” he continued carelessly as he spun and began walking up the stairs backwards. “I’m only going up so I…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

I am reliving my most recent tumble down a flight of stairs. Unfortunately for me, I was wearing slippery socks. XD The RP is hilarious, but I could smack Wolfgang.

Wilhelm

“Forgiven. I am Wilhelm Kemp.” Somehow the Esquire of the Order of Enlighted Ones did not want to attach itself to his name at the moment. He felt he did…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

haha!!!

“Hurt! I should say not,” Wolfgang laughed. He bounced to his feet and grabbed the other boy’s hand, pulling him upright. “Sorry to run into you like that. I suppose you’re a student here? What’s your name? Mine is Wolfgang Julius Wilhelm Von Heinz, but you can call me Wolfgang.”

@loopylin

Hmm.

Reuven

“Maybe.” He bit his lip. “I would not be a good choice for personal security. I have work outside of school, so I can’t stick around much. I’m also not in any of the cliques, so I wouldn’t be a very influential ally. I could identify some good witnesses for you though, if you need interviews.”

He did not like the words…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle

Awesome!

Wilhelm

He heard the footsteps, much too rapid for this time of evening. He spun on the stair, catching the banister in one hand to keep his balance as he looked behind him. It was that hold on the banister that saved him.

A young giant hurtled into him. The two boys went crashing back onto the stairs, Wilhelm…[Read more]
