what it feels like to be in a small fandom with little to no fanart or fanfiction

hope is a skill

So. I have this fancy family tree software and I thought I might as well use it, but it was having technical difficulties (or maybe I was the problem?) so here is this super low-quality Mettlestone family tree. Since it's impossible to read, (I just wanted to have a picture in a post for once, lol) I guess just rely on the image description! rip

Basically, I have figured out as best as I can the order of the Mettlestone siblings so I put them in, added their spouses, and added their kids. Oscar isn't in there but like he's an adopted grandkid so that is a bit of an inaccuracy; I'm not sure where he would go though? It was very fun researching the books to find all the ages, though ultimately there was a mostly-in-age-order list in SLV that filled in all the gaps. Before I found that list, I had known that Isabelle, Carrie, and Franny were the three oldest, that Emma and Patrick were at the end, and that Sophy was also a younger child.

kinda crazy they had 12 kids. that's a lot. In case you are wondering, the reason Bronte only had 10 gifts to give but 11 aunts is because Maya & Lisbeth shared a gift!

Also it's really cute that Jacob and Ildi combined their last names to make Mettlestone. Very wholesome.

These are true.

silly character names

My mom and I's favorite names in the Kingdoms and Empires series that we like to say out loud because they make us giggle:

Snatty Ra-Ra

Ronaldo C. Torrington

Jonathan J. Lanyard

bronte mettlestone series

—formally known as the Kingdoms and Empires series by Jaclyn Moriarty—is one of my new favorite series and I cannot find any hint of a fandom online. So I guess I’ll just see if I can start it/find it? Hello ppl? Are you out there??
