Wow. It’s been a while. @sarafini @ragnarok @kimlikesart @this-is-not-an-alien

Is this just me and my siblings? Because BOOOO! I talk to them all day! I want a new victim friend to interact with?

Hello

Anyone?

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Ah-hem.

Well dear listeners,

It would seem…[Read more]

@kimlikesart [Ohel approaches the desk. Bookshelves line three off the walls and starting with the one to his right and stopping on the fourth wall only because there is a door. The rest of the fourth wall holds pictures, a nick-nack shelf, and one tall plant – a small tree – illuminated by a glowing mushroom-lamp.

The knick-knack shelf holds var…[Read more]

Sage watched in confusion as Saga jumped out the window. The spider, naturally, was much bigger now. Almost as big as the couch. It was a little… intimidating. Wait, not out the window!

It… jumped… after the others… Sage decided to look down. Nathair looked down too.

“…Are you going to jump out the window too…?” Nathair asked Leana,…[Read more]

Nathair stared out the window after Alessio. Assumably he could stand safely, he always did.

As the spider grew, Nathair side-eyed the creature, seemingly immortal. It probably had a weakness of some sort, but the boy had already decided he was doomed to get killed again. So he just watched what everyone else was doing.

Panicking. They were…[Read more]

“Uhhmmm…Sorry about that.” The boy who tried to touch his hair was stammering. “I didn’t know…”

Didn’t…didn’t know?! Nathair tensed more, glancing from him to Alessio as if the boy with the mismatched eyes had telepathy or something. But he was just assuming, wasn’t he? Why should he even care if the weird boy knew anything about him? He didn’t…[Read more]

GRIMME

She looks down to see a child.

“Where can I use the restroom?” He is still tugging on her sleeve, eyes big, cheeks rosy.

She rubs the back of her neck. The kinky-coily hair rubs roughly against her hand.

This is … too many children. One, sure, she knew what to do. Three…[Read more]

‘It’s ok’? That’s what he said, but he meant ‘I forgive you.’

If this was to give him another chance at living…Nathair didn’t know. They had so much more than their differences and Alessio would never be reconciled to who he was after all. So why was it so intoxicatingly safe to hear him?

You’re scared of me.

Why didn’t he kill Nathair now th…[Read more]

“…why aren’t you with your dad?” Nathair asked, sounding too whiney even for him to stand. “He seems nicer…” He squeezed his eyes shut and tightened his jaw.

Leana glanced toward him, cocking her head, before glancing at her father, who sat on the floor, looking at a young man. “I think… you need me more, right now.” She whispered, al…[Read more]

😄

What’s your favourite thing about spring, Sarafini?

@this-is-not-an-alien @hannahrenner

“Well, Alessio, that’s your name right? It means you can move away, get a job, and live somewhere without your parents but you can’t make those choices yourself without someone signing off for you. If that makes sense.” ‘Alixer’ was saying.

He got the wrong name. Nathair watched scrunched in his corner in the room for lack of anything else to do.…[Read more]

BURN

I twist my wrist free from Oscar. “Don’t touch me!”

Calm down. You’re overreacting. Just … breath.

Oscar very carefully puts his arms on my shoulders like I didn’t just tell him not to touch me. “It’s okay. You’re safe here.”

Grimme looks at my arm with brisk efficiency. I…[Read more]

@sarafini

Nathair slumped in his spot, dully watching the chaos ensue. Out of the corner eye he kind’ve watched Leana, not really sure what she was going to do. He waited a bit for her to…do something, and squirmed.

Finally, he let out a breath and made something of an attempt to be friendly.

“…why aren’t you with your dad?” He asked, sounding too whiney…[Read more]

How are you all doing today!
Do you have any plans for Resurrection Day? 😊

“It basically means hero. I’ve been told that it means sacrificer. Why are you guys so afraid of a spider and what is with the kids running around.”

Nithel’s brows popped up on his forehead, and he glanced toward Leana just a moment, before looking back at Alixer.

“I’m 16 btw.” Alixer went on. “Not a kid or adult. In fact, at 10 you’re conside…[Read more]

SEARCH

I watch Grimme nearly puke as Alessio lets the spider. Crawl. On. His. Hand.

What the Abyss is this kid made of?

I hold out the jar.

Except.

He.

Drops.

It.

“I’m sorry!” He backs into … ya’know what? That’s Nithel. And everybody here is getting a tiny trinket. This is rid…[Read more]

“It’s alright…” Nithel attempted.

“But he-!”

“Get up!” Ohel yelled, leaving Alessio flushing with fury.

“I don’t know if I can?”

“You looked buff enough, back in the other place. Like you could carry my adult-self. So move.” He growled dangling on top of Nithel. (Alessio was kind’ve jealous, he kind’ve wanted a piggyback ride now…) But he w…[Read more]

“Get off of him right now,” Alessio threatened, drawing himself to his full…four foot height? “and apologize to Nithel. Now.”

Nithel chuckled nervously, still struggling not to fall off the couch. “It’s alright…” Not that I’d let my children talk to me this way…

Ohel snorted, in reply to Alessio, glowering down at Nithel. “Get up!”

“I d…[Read more]

Hi @sarafini ! Your characters sound amazing!
Will you be bringing all of them in? Or just a few?

@this-is-not-an-alien Thanks for taking the time to send all those!
