#and people like Maya and Adél bring that out in him a bit

[writerfae]

Hi! So, just a heads up: this ask is gonna be very different fom my usual.

I wanted to tell you a little about my story, because I wanted to know how you think Aiden would interact with my mc, Adél (because when I'm having a bad writing day, I like to imagine my charecters interacting with yours, but I put Adél and Aiden in a room and they just look everywhere, but at echother HELP IT'S SO AWKWARD)

A small summary:

The majestic country of Galla floats in the sky, put there by the doves themselves. Underneath it is the monster-filled Black swamp, the most terrifying place on earth.

When Adél's(15) little brother, Ákos(10) falls into the Black swamp she and her best friend Bendegúz(15) decide to go and rescue him. Or try anyways.

Meanwhile back home Adél's older brother, Endre(19) slowly figures out that their little brother never fell... he was pushed.

I should also mention that Adél's family is one of three royal families, who rule together. Bendegúz is the son of the capitan of the guards.

Adél is very kind and caring towards those she loves.

But the most important thing about her is that she's terrified of everything!

She is always nervous and scared, always thinking about how a situation could go wrong (it's not all she talks about, but the fear is always there under the surfece somewhere). She isn't afraid to show her emotions.

I also want to tell you a bit about her relationship with her little brother.

Their parents and her older brother had to go to meetings all the time, leaving them with a governor of some kind.

She adores Ákos. She usually loves taking care of him, aside frome the times that she's overwhelmed.

The sweetest thing is that one of the reasons she's so caring, is that she's scared that someone's having a bad day and she doesn't know, so she's extra careful to ask her friends if they're okay, if doing xyz is okay, and she always let's them know what she appreciates about them. Little Ákos saw her doing this, and started doing it too, and now he just does it for no reason!

And to Adél this is soo sweet, because she doesn't realize that he learned this from her, all she knows that she's being insecure about for example a painting of hers and Ákos points out what he likes about it.

Adél likes to paint, knit and sculpt.

I think that's all.

So how do you think she and Aiden would interact?

I hope this ask didn't make you feel uncomfortable. If so, feel free to ignore it!

Hello! You’re not making me uncomfortable with this at all! Quite contrary, it’s nice to hear something about your story! Feel free to tell me about it whenever you want ^^

First, let me say that I love the set up of the story, it sounds really interesting! And you know how much I love sibling relationships.

I like how you described her relationship to her younger brother, it’s really cute (though what happened to him is pretty sad, I hope she’ll succeed in rescuing him)

Adél sounds really sweet, I like characters like her. She reminds me a bit of my girl Maya. And I’m very sure Aiden would like her.

I can see why there’s only awkwardness when you sit them in a room together xD From what you told me Adél is a kinda anxious person (I can highly relate) and I gotta admit, Aiden is a bit awkward around strangers.

I think they’d need time to warm up to each other. At first it might be awkward silence and a few very short lived attempts of conversation, but I think they’d get along nicely once they had some time.

Admittedly, Aiden does not have the best social skills, but I could see him noticing Adél being a bit cautious, so he’d try his best not to scare her.

Maybe the two should have to do a task together to warm up to each other. I could see that working. I don’t know if you know, but Aiden actually likes to sketch and since you said Adél likes to paint, it might be a good start.

She could also try teaching Aiden how to knit, which I think wouldn’t be all too successful but surely very funny. It would give Adél something to laugh over for sure, cause though he’s usually pretty deft, he tends to be a bit clumsy sometimes.

But yeah I think once they got to know each other they could be very sibling like in their interaction. Since they’re both pretty meek they’d be the quiet type of friends, those that enjoy a good silence together.

They might also end up talking about their respective siblings a lot xD

#I know she already has two brothers but I think Aiden would volunteer to be number three #in his heart he’s a big brother and he almost would’ve been one so #and people like Maya and Adél bring that out in him a bit #anyway I think he’d like your mc but he’s too awkward so he would need some time #thanks for sharing something about your story with me!
