"[They] watched the snowflake melt on [their] hand." for five sentence asks!

He watched the snowflake melt on his hand.

Winter was approaching again. This time last year, Acheron had been sent out, given his mission and a bag of supplies, away from the cloister where he had been raised.

He wondered, staring at the dot of water that used to be a snowflake, if he should celebrate. A whole year away from home. He'd hoped to have returned by now, to have completed whatever vague divine purpose he had, but there was no such luck.

He tucked his hands back under his cloak, and continued on. He didn't need to dwell on that sadness right now.

"It was a careless mistake" for five sentence asks!

It was a careless mistake.

Nikolai had never meant to get caught. Why would he? He was only stealing something he was forbidden to have, for someone who was never meant to see it.

In hindsight, he thought, it would have been obvious. He'd heard his own hooves on the stone floors enough times to realize that they would be audible to anyone awake at this time of night.

He'd been so caught up in the idea of a heroic mission to help his best friend, he'd forgotten all about the risks he was taking. The mistake he made.

A careless mistake that had caught up to him, and left him out in the cold, with no more than the clothes on his back, never to return to the place he called home.

For the fact swap!

Vampires in my world get a character creation screen when they turn and they still all somehow manage to come out some flavor of goth

I’m dying to hear about how literal or not this “character creation screen” is, it sounds fun!

It made me think of Nora and her relationship to character creation screens over time, and how she probably had this journey of self acceptance through the medium of video games. I think it was the first space where she would let herself visualize herself as a girl when she played as girl avatars, and then slowly she would customize them to be fatter to match herself that way, too.

🧻for the oc olympics!

🧻 Which of your ocs always changes the toilet paper roll?

Haha I’ll go with the Querencia team for this one, since most of my other OCs don’t have indoor plumbing or aren’t in charge of housework. Nari definitely changes it, and Quinn does, too. Jamil usually does, but he forgets sometimes. Alex forgets more often than not. And Liliana uses the last of the roll for the first time and spends the next five minutes locked in the bathroom freaking out until she can find the spare rolls and change it.

What's the first book you remember reading?

That I remember reading? I don’t know. I remember my mum tucking me into bed and reading me a story. I assume that one of those was probably the first I learned to read on my own, but I don't remember which. 

Thanks for the ask!

Happy MAGM! Someone throws a ball at your character unexpectedly. How do they react?

Thank you for the ask (that’s Meet and Greet Monday right?) 

 Xie has good enough reflexes to block such an attack but she would go absolutely feral in response. Like yes, she’s prim and proper, but that takes focus for her and being caught off guard would make her very much respond with violence. 

Victor probably wouldn’t see it coming and just let it hit him in the face. Poor guy would even apologize to the person who threw it too.
