WTW Ghost Gala - Days 11 - 16

↳ [Day 11] Bats: How would your wip change if a minor character became the protagonist?

Honestly...not that much. What would happen is that the focus of the wip's events would shift to include scenes, events, and plot elements that the current main characters would never know or see. Leda or Sola as protagonists, for example, would showcase more espionage and take a deeper look into their relationships from before the start of the story. Characters like Ambrosius would shift the genre into more romance/tragedy and allow for Charles to have more screentime from the very first book.

But the actual progression of the King's Game and Fenice's fight for the throne wouldn't change significantly in terms of who wins, loses, lives, or dies.

Unless, of course, the protagonists end up being Charles, Isandros, or Aretos. In any other story, they'd be the natural protagonists. Unfortunately, they're in this one.

↳ [Day 12] Candles: After naming all your characters: tell us the meaning behind their names

Yeah, the names in WCTD are a mix of purposefully chosen names, names I picked out of a database without looking into meanings, and names I just made up, so this was...hard.

Let's get started with the only 2 characters whose name I deliberately chose:

Fenice (Italian) - Phoenix (what a shocker, I know)

Carolus/Charles (Latin/German) - Free man

And then the characters whose names I just picked at random:

Isandros (Greek) - Like a man

Leda (Greek) - possibly "Happy/Gladly"? Couldn't find a proper source. Mother of Helen of Troy, Clytemnestra, Castor, and Pollux.

Ambrosius (Latin) - From the greek Ambrosios, meaning "immortal, divine." (hahaha)

Euphemia (Greek) - Well-Spoken

Basil (Greek) - derived from the word Basileus meaning "King"

Konstantine (Latin) - "constant, steadfast."

Nikephoros (Greek) - "carrying victory"

And last but not least, characters whose I just made up

Illysandre -Lady of Illyosa

Meidira - Creation's gift

Eliskander - Defender of Men

Kaelstansa - He who stands ahead

↳ [Day 13] Coffin: Where's your favorite place to write?

I don't really have much of a favorite. I just like writing in places that are relatively quiet and my back is to a wall so I'm not paranoid that people are looking over my shoulder

↳ [Day 14] Haunted Mansion: Describe a setting in your wip

The Imperial Palace in Kaelstanopoli-- often called the Khrysopalati-- is the seat of Aetierian governance and the home of the vi Aetiers."It's a sprawling series of pavilions and gardens, set upon a gently sloping hill that overlooked [Kaelstanopoli] the city proper. In the middle of the palace was the octagonal shape of the Great Hall. It glinted gold in the sunlight, each wall-face masterfully embellished with jeweled mosaics telling legends of the Empire's first ruler."

"It was grand, ostentatious, and decadent in its display of wealth. The perfect nest for the pit of vipers that made up the Aetierian imperial court."

↳ [Day 15] Black Cat: Flesh out your antagonist: Who are they? What are they? What do they want?

Aretos vi Aetier. The ghost of a child long thought dead. Or at least, that's what he's been told he is. He is his mother's son, her legacy, and her vengeance. What exists beyond those truths can be easily twisted to suit his needs. He has as many faces as the thousand-faced god himself, and he'll use whatever is at is disposal to accomplish his goals.

↳ [Day 16] Pumpkin Spice Latte

Yeah...I'm just gonna use the one from my wip intro

FENICE VI AETIER, a portent of ill omens and the estranged daughter of the Vasilier, ignites a dangerous succession game between her and her half-siblings, where losing means death and winning means an empire.

The end of the Hes-Aei war brings with it a chance to prove her worth to her father. The challenge is simple: bring him the head of the deposed king of Hesperia, and Fenice will be granted an Ascension, marking her as a legitimate contender for the throne. But finding the defeated king in his own lands would prove to be harder than Fenice imagined— especially when the remnants of her father’s last war starts rearing its head.

[zackcrazyvalentine]

I spun the roulette again out of curiosity. Oh wow. Hahaha

💖

Koron and POLLUX. Damn.

~~~

Pollux froze when his potions knocked over and one spilled all over Koron. His brain raced. Which one?! Which potion was that??? Was it poison?! Did Pollux accidentally kill his dorm mate? He actually liked Koron! And he can't risk an accidental murder!

"H- Hey!" Pollux shot forward and checked Koron for symptoms. He would need an antidote! Don't let it be a fast acting poison-

Dilated eyes, accelerated breathing! ...Flushed cheeks? Wait, this... Wait... That... That wasn't poison... Was it?

"Koron?" Pollux barely let out in dread, half considering to just run away.

[from this]

THE LUCK!!! THE FORTUNES!!! JUST AS WE WERE SAYING THEY'D BE MIDNIGHT INSOMNIAC FRIENDS LOL

💙 KORON x POLLUX 💜

-- --

Coughing and sneezing, the dark haired boy answered. "I'm fine, I'm fine... probably with, gah, a runny nose, but nothing more... That thing smells too sweet."

Amber eyes looked up at his friend...

VEESH! 💘

Koron inhaled sharply, he knew what that sensation just now was. "I-... I, umm, ahaha...." He cleared his throat, "Pollux you're... y-you're very pretty, I've always thought that." A hand went up to scratch the back of his neck out of nervousness.

Vasilis scooched backwards in a flash to get as far away from Koron as he could. "Oh no... oh no oh no oh no! OH NO!" The anxious soul thought, shaking his head in denial.

Adamante sighed. "I know these words are sudden and strange, they unsettle you..." He clutched his chest at the delightful fluttering his heart experienced after looking at his dorm mate. "But I'm going mad! So very mad without you, without your love~!"

Koron stood up. "You won't mind it, right?" One step, "Can I...?" Another step, "Come closer?" Another step, "I just want to hold you tight in my arms~" Slowly, he prowled closer and closer to the shaking boy.

Pollux's eyes wandered frantically between Koron and the window. Maybe he could secure an escape if he....

Oh, the door was right there, to his right.

"Apologies, Koron, but I h-have to go!!" As fast as he could, Pollux ran for the door and closed it with all his might, using a bit of magic to lock it and keep it locked.

He slid down the smooth surface until he reached the floor. Heart a mess from the exercise and words uttered by his now prisoner, mind running amuck from anxiety and ways to revert the potion's effects.

"Hey~ That's mean~! Especially after I told you I'm going mad without you, love!" Came Koron's voice from behind the door.

Pollux jumped in surprise. "S-sorry... just-... just hold tight! I'll see... what can be done about this..." He spoke in a whisper.

To search for an antidote, ASAP

"Very well," Vasilis told himself, "C-Calm down, we have something important to do."

Now...

How to achieve this goal when Koron is trapped inside Pollux's safe heaven?

"Sevens... This day can't get worse, can it? Aah~"

"Shoot," Pollux sighed, "I might've jinxed myself now..."

-- --

DOJFRPOEA I'D LOVE TO SEE MY BOY CLING AND TORTURE YOUR BOY WITH HIS CORNY CHEESY STUPID LOVE XD

Hope you enjoyed! Thank you for your ask 💗

And hopefully I got Pollux in character uvu

[waiting-on-a-dream]

What does your muse like about [character name]?

Answer to this. @sugarandmelody Asjksjkjs Sorry this took so long, I kinda forgot about it- Also, answering this put so many thoughts into my head. It's a mess, make sure to read the tags. 👍️

Iris Delmor:

"Probably the same reason she likes me," Iris giggled. "She knows how to have fun, what can I say?"

"She's got style too! We could shop all day if we wanted to, getting our nails done, gushing over high heels..." Iris flicked her hair back, eyes crinkling affectionately. "I didn't know I needed a friend like her in my life until she came crashing right in."

"And have you heard the way she talks about her siblings? She's such a caring sister, in her own way," Iris continued to smile at a certain corner of the room, but then her expression soured.

"Something wrong?" The interviewer asked.

"Hm? Oh no, I just remembered something nasty," Iris waved the interviewer off. "Any other questions?"

Slyvan Marwood:

"I think...Underneath all that anxiety, there is a kind person," Slyvan pouted a bit as he chose his words carefully. Pollux might be listening in, who knows?

"I don't know what happened to make him so... I'm sure it must have been incredibly painful," Slyvan wrung his hands together. "It's not my place to force anything on him, not even good intentions. But I hope with time...He can be happy someday?"

Slyvan laughed softly, reaching up to run his hands through his braid. "I don't really know how to answer this question. I don't actually know him that well? Um...Yeah."

Violet Delmor:

Violet scrunched up her nose, crossing her arms with a huff. "What kind of question is this? Don't you have any better questions to ask?"

"Nope," the interviewer laughed.

"You're sadistic," Violet sighed, but answered anyway. Because she's a goody two shoes.

"Pip is...Not the brightest, or the best at being organized, or- You get the point," she paused to cleared her throat.

"Despite that, she doesn't give up. She's terrible at studying, but she does it anyway. She's clumsy, but she works hard to fix her messes. She can hardly take care of herself, but she still tries to take care of other people. That kind of optimism..." Violet fiddled with her skirt, "is admirable, I suppose. I appreciate her tenacity. Compared to some of the wimps I've seen soiling the Heartslabyul name, she's already leagues above them just because of her spirit."

After finishing her little rant, Violet looked to the side, embarrassed perhaps. "Don't tell her I said that..."

Xenon Ambrose:

Xenon stared at the interviewer for a few long, awkward seconds.

"His thirst for knowledge is something I can connect over with him. And I like that he has the same social skills as me, I've always found it hard to understand most social conducts. Yes, that is all."

The interviewer raised an eyebrow. "That's all? Really?"

Upon being pressured to say more, Xenon sat back, deep in thought. "...We are quite similar to each other. In mannerisms, having travelled to many places, and...the way we cope with the things that happened in our childhood."

"I see myself in him. What I was, what I am, and what I could be, if that makes sense." It doesn't, but okay.

#I think I saw Stingray say once that the interviewer is her #and my ocs having me as their interviewer increases their suffering by 10% #so I'm going with that as well! #bro answering this had me thinking of how there is an underlying layer of angst for each one of these relationships #damn Stingray for making her ocs so sad and damn me for adding fuel to the fire #this is set before Larissa came to NRC because I don't think Slyvan will be answering interviews questions a long time after that #good luck understanding Xenon's answer lmao #iris delmor #monaco physito #pollux vasilis #slyvan marwood #emerald needle #pip suit #violet delmor #rozalie enchantiane #xenon ambrose #oc interview

JANI?!?!?

Well... Of course I'd pick you too in a dating game. Cute, fun and sweet? Gosh... Gimme all the DLC content too~~~ 💐💐💐

Pip: Eh?! Senpai... Is thinking of picking me? Well... 👉👈 Jani-senpai is like an angel to me. Always looking out for me and helping me... I'm honored, senpai! (○; u ;○)

Rozalie: ........... Oh, sorry, Alon. I was making you a gift. *holds out a bouquet of roses* I am unsure of what to do with your feelings but I wish to respect them. Perhaps we can get to know each other better.

...

...

... Pollux? Do you have anything to say?

Pollux: ...You have terrible taste. Why-

POLLUX.

Pollux: ........................ May you find happiness...? ...Elsewhere- Maybe my Dorm Leader guy?

OH OH MY-

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WAIT IM ACTUALLY FEELING BUTTERFLIES HOLD UP-

Hahahahahaha they're all such sweethearts~

Minxie you're way cuter I cant /// THANKS FOR THE FLOWERS

....

Pollux...

thank you for wishing me happiness! I love your dorm leader way too much *cougH*

you reminded me of him just by existing and then literally reminding me of his existence by mentioning him-

I'm gonna go simp for him now-

#pollux vasilis #rozalie enchantiane #pip suit #minxie cobain #minxie #jani #jani oc #anastasia alon #? #*dies in simp* #i love #i just love #that's it

[zackcrazyvalentine]

Damn... Now you put it in my mind, I would love for Pollux to accidentally become friends with Koron due to chaotic wreck energy. Many accidentally meetings at unholy hours. Mutual agreements to not talk about it. Pollux finally cracking after seeing Koron (through the many security cameras he's hooked up EVERYWHERE) having a bad day and...

Koron just gets random care packages at his door. Don't worry about it. Eat the food. Have a fluffy blanket. Maybe at least one of them can get sleep.

Pollux, appreciating Sei for not talking much or being quiet so they both can sit in silence.

BUT I AM 100% POSITIVE POLLUX IS STRESS AF BY TZURIEL. JUST. HE TRIES TO CEASE EXISTING AROUND THAT BOY. DON'T LOOK AT HIM OR INTO HIM PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THE SEVENS. Pollux will have to do something if Tzuriel dips his head into the Vasilis business and Pollux doesn't want to! Pollux wants to live quietly, thank you very much!

(Hacking nemesis-)

Koron makes sure to always restock the dorm's snack pantry with Pollux's favorites, but they're hidden from the rest of the students. He leaves a note on the pantry door when he knows Pollux will drop by, a note with a series of instructions on what to move and where to look for the snacks, then the purple haired boy can take his bouty to the safety of his room

Adamante looks at the care packages very awkwardly "...uh...okay...?" But that's because he's more accustomed to take care of others rather than be taken care of, ESPECIALLY in such an anonymous, not-in-person way (he's a people person)

It takes a while for him to actually dig into a package. The moment he does is probably when he's at his lowest, right in the middle of a meltdown That blanket doesn't leave his embrace for the entire month (or longer). Whether he's working on schoolwork, on one of his inventions, playing videogames, listening to music, laying on the bed or floor, the fluffy blanket is always in his arms or wrapped around him

It will take him A WHILE to have Pollux cross his mind as the potential sender of the packages Well, guess Koron will have to buy more snacks for the boy! ...and thread carefully through the traps to not bother him by triggering one on accident

I can see them ending up together in one of their electives and just.. silently agreeing to be teammates, maybe? Because everyone else is pretty much a new face and new introductions are always nerve wracking

Koron 🤝 Pollux Insomniac mess friends

.

Sei will just be there, sitting in silence, staring off into space (maybe with his bioluminescent spots flicker as he zones out)

Doesn't even notice someone stumbled upon him and decided to stay there fjkldg Eel is too far in space to react to Pollux If Sei does make a sound, it's just mumbles for himself and strange giggles due to whatever he's imagining

.

OH MY GOD TZURIEL

HE'D BE LIKE "Oh, I think I've heard that name somewhere~" AND IMMEDIATELY GOES TO DIG WHAT HE CAN

Maybe Tzu doesn't find all of Pollux's information, but he manages to find that his family has a very prolific business of some kind, yet it isn't know to many

"But what kind of business?" THE DIVA WON'T REST UNTIL HE KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT POLLUX!!!

Hoho? what's this??

ACCESS DENIED TRACKING.... TRACKING....

"Haha! They will never find-"

I.P. ADDRESS XXX.0.X0.X DETECTED

Tzuriel finally knows fear in his hacker career "W-What? Impossible!" He's a mess of panic typing to counterattack this security program, frantic to erase his footprint from the web

....and yet, this dumbass will keep on trying to breach into the Vasilis reports. Each time with better precautions and tricks up his sleeve to fool the tracking programs sent his way

Will Tzu succeed in his goal? Maybe he could if he pesters Pollux one-on-one, face-to-face~

May the Sevens help you, Pollux Once Tzuriel has his eyes on a goal, he won't give up until he achieves it

Thankfully (or not lol), Tzu isn't the most cautious, those traps will definitely hit him more than a handful of times

#zask #oc talk #koron adamante #onaga sei #tzuriel #pollux vasilis #others' ocs #TZURIEL WILL ACTUALLY DIE WITH SO MUCH POISON #or maybe he'll develop a resistance to it ksfjklg #he's dumb dramatic and hungry for secrets #and he will get back up every time he gets knocked down #be careful pollux~ #KORON POLLUX FRIENDSHIP IS STRANGELY WHOLESOME TO ME I LIKE IT!!!!

[waiting-on-a-dream]

Pollux and Sylvan cause ya know what. My boy needs more people to care about.

◎ = taking care of them while ill .

~~~

Heavy fever and bedridden, Sylvan couldn't really do much but rest.

Food, water and medicine kept appearing at Sylvan's bedside. He assumed that a dorm mate was looking after him each time he fell asleep.

...At least he did till he heard a voice mutter viciously in his half asleep state.

"...why hadn't the fever broke yet? Is it a normal one? Does he has any special illnesses? Maybe he should see the doctor... The medical care on campus clearly isn't good enough. But why did he even get sick so easily? Is the normal body this weak? Ugh. Inconvenient. Stupid boy... Be healthier-"

A relieving coolness touched his head and Sylvan thinks he made a face.

The voice went silent.

...

"...he's not waking up, is he?"

He wills himself to be still and keep his breathing even. He swears he recognizes that voice somewhere...

The boy continues muttering after a moment of hesitation. He listens to the boy shuffle about, taking away his empty water bottle and replacing it with something else on his nightstand.

It's...that jittery boy he met a while ago. The one that reminded him of rubellite tourmaline.

It seems he has a good heart.

The boy leaves after a while, still muttering anxiously to himself.

Slyvan cracks open an eye, looking around to see a thermos sitting on his nightstand. It's some kind of tea. Pushing through his tired haze, he manages to write a note to thank the boy sometime.

#pollux vasilis #slyvan marwood #interactions #stingray I'm the one that's supposed to write #Ooh! Slyvan nicknames people as gemstones???!!!
