Leana is remarkably like Alessio… In several quirky-personality-ways. 😄

“We might as well get going.” Snaky punk says. I hear him climb to his feet. “It’s almost big enough to climb through now.”

I roll the fire opal in my hand again, singeing my fingers and – frankly – not caring. The world’s still a little funny…

“Do you need help getting to the opening or can you just stumble along reasonably?” Snake-…[Read more]

“I just hope this is a dream and I wake up soon.” Caleb was saying to the…weresnake? bartender. All Nathair could think was he was hoping the same. This day never ceased getting crazier.

“You’ll need something stronger than that.”

No this’ll do.”

“I’ll take something stronger.” Nathair said, sliding to the counter where the bartender eyed hi…[Read more]

Actually! I have an answer!

Here you go, this is the DSM diagnostic criteria for Autism in adults. (Rooted around through way too many links from decidedly… iffy autism resources.)

It’s a bit information dense and clinical, not to say a little pathologizing, but a good overview! It also says how many of these traits you nee…

@mamaauthoress

Hello hello! It’s awesome to see you around again!

@everyone

I kinda want to drop in a character as well! Frey my boi has been talking to me for months now and he’s more than ready to get out into the world.

Honestly…has anyone ever told him?

I think Kit would either get smug and annoying about it or tear up XD

Actually it’s pretty much canon that little elderly women tell him he’s handsome and charming because he’s very polite towards them…so they get to see the nice version of him and then Val gets stuck with the smug aftermath XD

You…[Read more]

Caleb broke through the wall. Rock clattered on the concrete. It was a sewer and most fortunately a clean one that didn’t smell too bad. Sauntering through the opening, he looked up and down the narrow walkway beside the channel.

“Hello!!” He yelled.

The echoing reverberated off the walls. Caleb smiled. He always wanted to do that. A pale light…[Read more]

“Even if what you say is true,” Sir Scary said “That cure is my only lead. And if I do complete the assignment and the Necromancer refused to fulfil his part of the agreement,”

Here it came, like the hundreds of people before him.

“Then I will kill him.” He finished, steadily. Not someone who enjoyed killing or thought nothing of it. No that was…[Read more]

Now, to finish up. There were still a few more people.

Smirking to himself, Arsene approached the girl Alessio was talking to. Leana, wasn’t it? “Madam, you must be tired. I’ve arranged a room for you and Lady Crorie.”

Leana looked at him, clearly suspicious. So much for the perfect disguise.

“…Okay.”

Smiling, Arsene led Leana to the…[Read more]

“I was contacted by an employer calling himself the Necromancer.” Sir Scary responded. A bit of terror twisted in his gut at the name but it wasn’t like he hadn’t expected it. He stifled a shiver, telling himself it was better than the alternatives. Secretly he was just relieved it wasn’t his father who’d made the contract.

After a moment, Sir…[Read more]

Leana watches as they disapear behind a door. Not sure what to do. She sort of wants to disappear. Go out into the apparent night, and start walking back home. But without any directions… it seemed unlikely she’d get there.

And Alessio had said he knew her father. Had acted like Dad was nearby.

She leaned against the wall, across from the…[Read more]

“So…who hired you to kill me anyway?” Oh come on, Hades was tired.

“I mean it doesn’t seem personal,” Alessio continued, “You seem more annoyed by my existence than genuinely devoted to wrothful ire and vengeance against me.”

Well, that’s one way to put it. At this point, Hades was debating whether or not to finish the job. Was it really wort…[Read more]

(If Alessio said that he’d be lying through his teeth XDDDD)

(Not that he wouldn’t say it in his best deadpan voice…)

The room was a lot bigger and fancier than he expected (of course he always expected the worst anyway but that was just detail). It was stunning and uncomfortably welcoming but Alessio wasn’t really taking in much of it he was just thinking how he could possibly stay alert all night because he absolutely could not go to sleep in this s…[Read more]

After that conversation with the girl, Hades managed to get past and to the apartment. Arsene’s body double was there, getting ready to go to sleep. Arsene had gone to arrange a separate room for the girls, leaving Alessio and Hades to their own devices.

There was only one bed left.

“You take the bed,” Hades ordered, “I’ll take the…[Read more]
