Attention Ranger's Apprentice fanfiction authors!

I am hosting fanfiction writing event! In this event, every participant will write their own little story/statement/interview based on the prologue. Think of it as writing a ra fanfic Detective Conan episode but the plot is vastly different from Detective Conan.

So that you know what you are signing up for, I've added the prologue here. Also, the deadline for finishing your story wont be before mid September, so that everyone can enjoy writing the gathering prompts freely and without pressure!

If you like this and want to join, please DM me and I'll send you the rules.

If you have questions, also DM me!

it's been 35 years and i still have to teach microsoft word that adding apostrophe-s to a word doesn't mean it's spelled wrong

I have seen fires. The big ones and the small ones. The blue ones and the yellow ones. I saw them before I started reading books. I thought about them while reading. But only after I started reading did I understand how you can be enchanted by dancing flames.

Headcanon:

After Skandia and the drugs I believe Will is to insecure to be himself. He lost most of his skills and needs to train hard to be back at his old standards. He alters his personality and is copying Halt and Gilan, because in his eyes they are the best rangers. It takes months for him to be a little bit more like himself again and trust his own decision.

[artsysurvivor]

Treat please! I'd love to read something featuring Halt with Will as a child ^-^

[Image ID: A 9 page comic featuring young Will in a baggy, patched up outfit and no shoes, and Halt in his normal attire but younger and with his hood up. They are in a large field full of flowers; behind will is a bunch of trees, and beyond Halt are rolling hills and a cloudless blue sky.

Page 1

Panel 1: The trees are framing the field of wild-flowers. Will is looking out into it, a silhouette against the colorful background.

Panel 2: Will is looking around, smiling open-mouthed.

Panel 3: Will spots something! His shoulders shrug upwards, there's a shocked look on his face.

Panel 4: Will's body relaxes as he realizes the ranger is not turned towards him (though Halt can see him out of the corner of his eye) but he still looks at the figure in front of him warily, ready to run at any given moment.

Panel 5: Will steps cautiously towards Halt. "Um... Hello?" he asks.

Page 2

Panel 1: Halt turns to look at him. Will starts sweating and backing up, putting his hands up in a "I surrender!" gesture. "Is-Is something wrong, mister?" he asks. Under his breath, he adds, "Please don't curse me."

Panel 2: Close up of Halt's face. He's squinting at Will.

Panel 3: He shakes his head.

Panel 4: Halt resumes his previous position. Will looks to the side and down awkwardly, clasping his hands together.

Panel 5: Will goes back on his heels, swinging his arms, and closing his eyes.

Panel 6: He goes forward, not quite on his tip-toes, swinging his arms back. He stares blankly at nothing. Halt watches him out of the corner of his eyes.

Panel 7: Will settles and asks "Mind if I sit here?"

Page 3

Panel 1: Close up of Halt turning his head towards him again. He asks, "Don't you know it's dangerous to be alone with strangers?"

Panel 2: Will arches his eyebrows in a frown, his pupils dilating and his mouth in an upside down 7.

Panel 3: He puts his hand behind his head and looks away. "Baron Arald told me, once. But everyone seems so nice. How could they be dangerous?"

Panel 4: Small Halt raises his eyebrow incredulously.

Panel 5: Will tilts his head, smiling nervously, he brings his palms up by his chest and faces them outwards. "I mean, aside from you of course!"

Panel 6: He looks to the other side. "I also have someone back at the ward who's mean, but I would just call him a bully. He wouldn't... I don't know... kill me... You won't kill me, will you?"

Panel 7: Side view of the both of them. Will looks up at Halt, who is crossing his arms. He says, "Are you willing to take that chance?"

Panel 8: Will puts his hand by his head, his palm facing upwards. "Well, in retrospect, I think you would've killed me already."

Panel 9: Will continues, "So, technically I already took that chance." As Halt is pinching the bridge of his nose.

Page 4

Panel 1: Halt has his eyes closed. One of his hands is like Will's, his elbow resting on the other hand. He says, "Someday, you might meet someone who won't be as merciful as me W—"

Panel 2: Will is looking up at him frowning, with dot eyes. "Boy," Halt finishes.

Panel 3: "... Maybe," Will says, looking to the side.

Panel 4: Close up of Will's eyes. He has noticed something!

Panel 5: "Hey, what's that?" Will asks, pointing at a golden heart laying in the grass. Halt turns to where he's pointing. /End ID]

More under the cut

[Image ID:

Page 5

Panel 1: Close up of the locket. Engraved on it are two gloved hands holding a heart with a simple crown above it.

"I'm-I'm sorry sir. That's too much, isn't it?"

Panel 2: A hand reaches into the panel to grab the locket.

Panel 3: Halt looks down at the locket, now in his palm. "No, no... it's a locket. I got it from someone very dear to me."

Panel 4: Halt has a small smile on his face while still looking down at it. Will looks at him with his arms behind his back. "Oh..."

Panel 5: Will leans forward. "It's very pretty," he says. Halt nods.

Panel 6: Halt looks at the locket longer. Will's mouth settles into a neutral expression.

Page 6:

Panel 1: Will's arms move to his sides and he straightens his back. "Um, so... It looks like it opens up."

"Yes, that's a function of a locket," Halt replies.

Panel 2: Will steps to the side, smiles nervously, and clasps his hands together again. "Do you mind if I look inside?"

Panel 3: "Obviously it's ok if not, I don't want to force you to do anything," Will continues. Halt rolls his eyes.

Panel 4: Will tilts his head back and looks to the side. His palms are facing upwards by his shoulders. "—I doubt I'd be able to anyway—but I was just—" During this, Halt waits with a clenched fist over top his palm.

Panel 5: Will pauses his charade, noticing the fist, and looks down at it. Halt plops the locket into his hand.

Panel 6: Will smiles, feeling the surface with his free hand. "... Really?"

"Really," Halt confirms.

Page 7:

Panel 1: Will opens the locket with a "Click!"

Panel 2: Side view of Will looking down at it, mouth open slightly reading the text engraved in it. A little ways beside him, Halt has a small smile again and is looking at him with fondness.

Panel 3: Bust shot of Will furrowing his eyebrows, a question forming in his mind.

Panel 4: "Where'd you get this?" He asks.

Panel 5: Back to the original set up, but Halt is now looking away into the distance. "... Hibernia."

"Ah," Will says, also looking into the distance. That's why he sounds weird, he thinks.

Page 8:

(The first four panels are the same set up: Will hunched over sitting Halt, both of his hands clenching the locket over his chest).

Panel 1: "What does it mean?" Will asks, a big smile over his face.

Panel 2: "You ask a lot of questions, don't you?" Halt replies. Will's mouth turns to a closed smile, sparkles lighting up in his eyes similar to how a puppy's look.

Panel 3: Halt looks away. Will stays the same.

Panel 4: Halt lowers his head slightly with a sigh. Will closes his eyes and smiles with his teeth.

Panel 5: Halt holds his hand and looks away, tilting his head slightly. "It means 'Best friends forever.'"

Behind him are various drawings of Caitlyn. She has long curly hair, half of it in two braids leading to a small pony-tail. She has puffy sleeves and on her chest is a circle with a high collar. With 15 drawings overall, there are two objects scattered within: a head of a teddy bear and a book of flowers. One of them is the head of a fluffy dog, Madra, with closed eyes. 5 of the drawings of Caitlyn are portraying her younger years: her brushing a doll's hair with her tongue sticking out; her with big eyes and food all over her face; her looking up at the stars with her hands over her chest; her reaching out a hand while pointing in the distance; her reaching up as if wanting him to pick her up, and her with her arms spread out, dress and hair blowing in the wind. In her older years, looking from 10-13, she's holding paintbrushes mischievously, smiling as if she's laughing about something, and holding flowers which frame her head. Down in the right corner, there's a picture of Ferris with his eyes crossed out, Caitlyn and Halt holding hands, and older Caitlyn, smiling, with tears rolling down her—

"I hope I have one of those someday..."

Page 9:

Panel 1: Halt looks down at a hunched over Will. He's looking wistfully at the locket he is dangling in the air.

It fades to a black background. "I'm sure you will.

Now, hand me my locket and get back to the ward before I curse you." /End ID]

Um- uh- Happy Halloween!!

[gwynithh]

So I have an idea for a story but probably not going to write it myself.

Story idea 16:

A new story idea. Maybe just a short story about Nigel helping George to get rid of his stutter.

I would love it if someone could finish/write this story. You can do with it what you want. But let me know if you need inspiration or help. Of course let me know when you finished it, I would love to read it.

[gwynithh]

Pleas tell me that there is somebody with an unpublished Ranger apprentice fanfic about Will and the others that I’m allowed to read.

[h4nn4hra]

I feel like Will treaty would be one of those children that would absolutely refuse to wear shoes.

[gwynithh]

Raised by rangers 😏

[rangercorpstherapy]

Halt engaging in his own personal revolt/rebellion in order to save Will's life. I wanted to make a comic of one of my favorite scenes/chapter of the series. This will be part 1 of 4
