Okay, I Had To Do This.

Okay, I had to do this.

Sweetheart of a human who doesn't give two shits about gender struggles with an angsty power that caused them to be socially stunted.

Describe your favorite OC but like, really awfully. 

When I say I can't wait for this, I really mean it. You can bet on me reblogging and appreciating every one of them.

And as a bonus, I'll add all my characters thoughts on them as they come 😁

Hi! How far along are you in drafting/plotting/writing so far? CoF sounds fun, can't wait for more posts!

hi! <3

I have loosely plotted all of Crown of Flowers, which I am happy about! however, there will be a sequel that carries the arc of the first book, and I don’t have that plotted yet. I only have a basic idea of events, but no solid conclusion yet. I am working on it, and I hope this blog will give me the inspiration to keep on going!

although I have CoF planned, I haven’t had a chance to write more than a few pages in it. I am focusing on world-building and character development at the moment, so I can’t wait to introduce my characters!

I’m going to post about a character each day, so my Week of Characters is starting tomorrow! get ready! 

Hi Eve!!! Happy to see you active again!! I'd love to see an answer for 28 ^_^

28 If they could have one wish, what would they wish for? Bella lets out a heaving sigh, "For this to be over." She waves a hand at the outside, indicating the crumbling world she's stuck in. "It's awful what the gas has done to people, and I don't know how much longer I can last. It's exhausting providing for the boys and keeping a calm facade. I hate being in charge and I miss my family. But that's not going to happen without hard work. If only I could wish it away." "My parents!" blurts out Freddie instantly, shooting forward, a desperate fire in his eyes. He clears his throat and shifts awkwardly, his eyes glistening a little. "I need them and I miss them. They were supposed to come back, but they haven't." He turns away, too emotional to continue." "That's a tough one," Zach muses. "Maybe a way to end judging. I dunno how, but if there was a way to make everyone nicer and to stop assuming things about people based on the past, that'd be nice. Either that, or a way to save everyone stuck in this mess.

Character Question 14

How do you handle conflict with someone else? Do you avoid fights, or are you aggressive? Or are you passive-aggressive and only give the appearance of cooperation?

Bella: Chess master strikes again! She will swindle the other person onto her side. Don't argue with her unless she's sleep-deprived or super hungry. At that point, she will probably break down crying if you try to fight her. Otherwise, she's almost guaranteed to win. But generally, she tries to avoid fights.

Freddie: his only tone setting is sarcastic. He will snark at you till the end of your days and will insult you and argue with you if you disagree with him. He is the Smartest Being, the Supreme Overlord when it comes to having to deal with those of Lower Intelligence. The only people smarter than him are his parents. And the historical geniuses. He's sometimes sent out of the classroom for correcting and/or talking back to his teachers. Passive-aggressive to the end!

Zach: He doesn't want to fight you. It takes a lot to set him off, but once he's mad, it's explosive. Tip! Don't pick on someone who can't defend themselves around him. He will punch and kick and not let up until a respected adult pulls him off the bully. He will fight tooth and nail anyone who is mean to those that are truly close to him. Once he's removed from the bully he will 1. Challenge them to another fight 2. Give them the silent treatment after that. Don't mess with him. Why would you want to see such a happy boi angry? Why?

This stubborn, high strung kid is Freddie. An only child of two prestigious scientists disconnected from their family, he was removed from his parents for most of his life. They prided themselves in their work and urged him to do the same, leading to high standards and disconnect from people. At the age of 5, his parents left on a 3 year space journey to an asteroid, leaving him to mourn their abscense. He doesn't have any friends at school, since, being 9 in 7th grade, his a lot younger than everyone else, and because his high standards cause him to reject almost everyone who tries to approach him. Becoming part of the trio is the first step on a journey to healing emotionally and socially. (Though it's probably made a lot harder by being stuck in an apocalypse)

Age: 9

Birthday: February 6th

Race: Thai-German

Power: to be revealed

Did anyone ask for a more fleshed out angsty backstory for the resident nerd? No? Oh well

Freddie wasn't kidding when he said he was a genius. His biological parents, who are (were? I know but you don't) NASA scientists were smart, but not great family members. Their rigorous work ethic pushed them away from their families, so neither has seen or heard from their family in 10 years. Thus, leading to Freddie's extended family not even knowing he existed.

As a baby, and as soon as it was deemed safe by the hospital to expose him to a less controlled environment, he was in a baby backpack while his parents worked in their lab. When he was a little bigger, he was sat in the back of their private lab in a baby pen with wooden blocks painted with the periodic table. His parents didn't starve him, and payed a little attention to him, but it's safe to say they didn't interact with him as much as they should. At 4, he was finally allowed to work with his parents in tamer experiments, which truly set off his love for chemistry. Unfortunately, some time within the next two years his parents left on a space mission, effectively abandoning their son. Freddie fell into a bad depression, since they were his main source of human interaction, since they never took him anywhere but work. Freddie was shuttled into a foster center (he stayed at his school, thankfully) and spent most of his time in a ball either in a corner when he wasn't allowed to be in bed. He was mute for a very long time. This was the only time when his work suffered - he did the bare minimum to not be kicked out and had no side projects. Finally, he settled in with a couple who accommodated his smarts by pushing for a prestigious magnet middle school, and who could also deal with his aloofness. It took a lot of love, effort and time from his foster parents to get him to talk again.
