It’d be great to have a new character!
I’ll give you a quick rundown of my other character in the castle, Enydd.
Enydd is in her twenties and has a laidback personality that conflicts with the short spurts of anger that show up when she is under stress. She also is heavily burdened with guilt over a decision that cut her off from her family.
Conroy sounds like an intersting, fun character. I can tell, at least from the description… Abirami will immediately want to adopt/father/bring him under his wing… and Ku’Aya will likely dislike Conroy right away, for slightly but similar reasons. =)
Conroy’s reaction to adoption would be, “Cool.” until Abirami starts to watch out for him. XD Actually, it would be good to see Conroy’s reaction to having a brother figure since he’ll eventually be reunited with his brother again.
CONROY
“Don’t start wallowing in your own self-pity. If you really want to be accepted, you have to start acting like me and that means feeling sorry for yourself is no longer an option,” the girl, C, continued.
I choked back a giggle. The guy she was walking with turned his head away from her. I leaned forward. Yup, he was very annoyed. I almost felt sorry for him. Almost. I smiled as I pulled out a sheet of paper from my pocket. I scribbled down OK+C=>:( -…|_o
The others didn’t think it was important to watch OK, but that was fine. Actually, it was really good. That meant I would get all the credit when they found out he’s a spy. I grinned. The look on Ryker’s would be awesome.
I walked out onto the street to be carried along with the crowd when a flash of light suddenly erased everything around me.
“What’s- agh! My eyes!” I shouted. I clapped my hands to my face so hard that my cheeks stung. I hissed.
Slowly, I peeked between my hands. The light was gone. I rubbed my eyes. “Who did that?” I said loudly.
My voice echoed in the room. “Cool. This-!” I wasn’t on the street! I was in a theatre. A theatre! I chuckled nervously. “Okay, so, where am I? What’s going on guys? This is a test or something, right?”
There was a long table in front of me with empty plates on it. “It’s too early to have lunch,” I observed to the empty room. However, the chairs did look comfy. I slid into the chair nearest to me. I gave a happy sigh. “This sure beats standing all day.”
I looked around the room again. There had to be someone here.
Voices came from behind me. I twisted around. A stream of people filed in, and they were the strangest people I have ever seen. It wouldn’t be too hard to remember them. There was a lady with blue hair, a girl with green skin (GREEN SKIN!), a man with one blue and one green eye, another man in a long, black coat, and so many more.
Was this the test? To spy on all these people and pick out the traitor? I scanned the room for somewhere to hide, but it was already too late. They had seen me. Time for Plan B.
I smiled cheerily at them. “Hi! I hope I didn’t take anyone’s seat. Do any of you know where the waiter is? I’m thirsty.”
