SCENE SETTING – [You arrive in Consul Oscar Woodwall’s living room.]

The room is richly furnished and professionally designed. It’s quite large – could comfortably hold a little over twenty people. The walls are emerald green and the pillars are stark white.

A fountain babbles in the cente…[Read more]

@hannahrenner Cool!

With Alessio through, Nithel jumped in, dragging Leana with him, the boy under his arm still screaming and kicking.

Things swirled before he thudded on the ground. The boy scrambled free. Nithel groaned, lightly, before lifting his head. Kids were sprawled in a cluster around him, with any number of strange emotions crossing their faces. His gaze…[Read more]

“Let’s move!”

Alessio jumped, his first instinct to get everyone down first clashing with dash headlong after Nithel and assume he had a plan. Cursing outloud, he ran after him but he hesitated at the pool until he was sure everyone had made it.

Well. That was his plan.

In actuality, the ground lurched sending him toppling down the pool. It sh…[Read more]

Good discussion and question!

I just had to add in my personal pet peeve. Most of the time in a story, I want a resolution where good wins. And I think a strength of fantasy is that it tends to make good and evil clearer than most genres. When it’s clear in the story, then later the story’s principles and themes get applied in my life in more…[Read more]

Scrolling through Pinterest and found the perfect quote to describe Burn. (And what if feels like writing him. LOL – not once have I actually known what he was about to do when I was writing him. It just happened)

(Also important for you to know that he is posing like Oscar and doing a horrible impersonation of him.)

Hey, so Burn actually likes kids and would be a mother hen – but he has absolutely NO idea what is proper for children or not. He treats them like little adults with less life experience which is great! Until you factor in the shenanigans that he assumes are life experience! (Plus a few other issues like food and outfits and you honestly can…[Read more]

Your quote is just the best! 🤣

So apparently after at least two years of absence, I’m still getting emails from this thread.

Lol that sounds great!!

(Now we will have a responsible adult yay our babies will liveee!!!)

Ideally, I’d say as long as they’re in Burn’s world. Kid-Alessio isn’t as scared of enclosed or underground spaces as adult-Alessio (“adult” 😌)

😁

@hannahrenner @ragnarok @kimlikesart

Cathy & Ragnarok- Nithel could remain the adult. 😄

Nithel also was never a child in human-form. (Though he was a baby/child, as a star.) The youngest he’s been as a human, in looks, is around 18.

I could make him go back to that point, and he could be the ‘adult’… around 7,000 years old. 😄

Cathy, Ragnarok. & Hannah- (How long do we want…[Read more]

Heyyyyyy, if Nithel was a star and he fell to earth as a man this would be his first experience as a child right? 😁

Nithel is definitely the most sensible option. Not sure how they’d survive if Nathair was the only adult 🤣 Seeing Hades have to be responsible for everyone sounds glorious, and Burn would probably only barely keep everyone…[Read more]

I know for a fact the Sherlock, now Sage, does not have any memories past his current age. Arsene is currently (that may or may not change. I don’t know) at his normal age.

As for turning everyone into children, your choice, but we need at least one person to remain the same so we can see how they manage children (to which I mean we have one…[Read more]

Hm… I’d vote for all the adult memories, and all the childhood personality quirks.

(But again, I understand if no one wants to do that…) dx

Ohhhh that would be glorious unmitigated chaos I love it!!!!

Would they still all their adult responses or would they revert to their personalities as kids, pre-trauma? And would they remember everything from that’s happened or everything they experienced up to that age and everything that happened in the castle?

(Actually, 10-13 age…[Read more]

The world continued to tremble. Stones began to fall from the ceiling, except over the pool. The floor rocked, as if on a stormy sea. “Let’s move!” Nithel’s eyes widened, and his heart banged against his chest. It’s just another test. He grabbed Leana’s wrist, scooped up the boy who’d just appeared under one arm and dragged her toward the pool. He…[Read more]
