How about angst ratings of the routes?

nasha: i’d say a 6/10 but if i choose to feel a lil silly later when i write it then maybe a 7/10.

l: i have two ways to go about their route, if it’s like the first one then a 4/10 but if it’s the other route then wow, a solid 9/10.

lai: a 6/10 probably, it’s not really enemies-to-lovers but more rivals-to-lovers so not as angsty.

m: an 8/10 if i continue the way i’m planning their route to go, if not then a 4-5/10.

enid: HA 12/10 NO MATTER WHAT BITCHES

Can we have physical descriptions of the ROs please?

YES OF COURSE

nasha is an alluring person who stands tall (5′11″ f!nasha and 5′8″ m!nasha and nb!nasha) and are quite lean due to their passiveness towards sparring. often irriated by constantly pushing back their locks, nasha tends to clip back their dark brown, wavy hair that usually brushes their shoulders (m!nasha has stubble that tickles his hands when he pulls it back). with gunmetal blue eyes that hold enough fire to burn a forest, their stare often leaves people nervous or smitten. often seen basking in the sun, nasha’s warm brown skin practically glows when the light hits it perfectly: leaving everyone bewitched. 

l is a notable and quite intimidating person, especially when they’re so tall (6′ luba and 6′1″ lev) and possess spindly legs contrasting with their toned arms. platinum blonde hair (luba - waist length and lev (m and nb) - short hair ending below their ears) that could rival their pale complexion. although catch them off guard and you can see their impression of a tomato. silver feline eyes, that are so attentive to your needs, could destroy anyone with a single glare. with only a candle lighting the room, it’s easy to miss the fond look on their face.

m is a confident person standing at an impressive 5’10”, their body showing the result from years of training, a strong and powerful being. their short black hair shows tinges of blue and purple, reminding people of the beauties of space. rosy skin covers their body, a light blush decorates their round cheeks and knuckles. grey eyes, cocky and calculating, peer down on others from the throne’s magnificence. teasing smirks paint their face, pouty lips curving maliciously at those who underestimate them.

lai is often bitter towards their physical appearance as they’re 5’3”, and despise when people look down on them (physically and intellectually). knowing their strong points, they can dress perfectly and adapt towards their apple-shaped body. olive brown skin adorned with beauty marks contrasts stunningly with their elbow length black hair. judgemental brown eyes, mostly fixed in a blank stare, are hidden behind wire framed glasses.

enid stands at a great 6’3”, their body soft and untainted with the harshness of life. cool black skin causing their kind honey-like eyes to stand out. on their head sits a crown of black and brown curls, tied back loosely with a red ribbon. chapped lips, the result of nibbling on its skin, swirl into a grimace after remembering the cruelty of fate. delicate hands that emit warmth with every touch, clench tightly because of this and a pained smile presents itself to the world.

a late valentine’s day post! <3 and some little stuff that i had planned from the actual story :).

nasha loves you even if you called them a familiar murderer.

L loves you just the way you are… even if you are soaked in pond water.

lai loves you despite that time you stole their glasses and left them blind for a whole day.

m loves you regardless of you running from them and calling them a maniac when they sent guards after nasha and not actually you.

enid just loves you for you…even though it will end in pain.

ROs weirdest interests/habits?

nasha: taxidermy (they help preserve people’s dead familiars for them, it’s nice but also weird)

L: they don’t bite their nails but instead the skin around them so their fingers are constantly getting infected (don’t kiss their hands)

m: collecting bugs, especially beetles with shiny shells

lai: ironing newspapers, they like them crisp what can i say

enid: ice baths after work, pretty normal but it’s just unusual for the average person in sidereal

[orenda-if]

What are the tropes of each Route?

nasha: co workers to lovers (i know nasha is like your mentor but the power imbalance i have unintentionally created makes me wanna cry)

l: childhood friends to lovers

lai: academic rivals to lovers/friends

m: forbidden romance (if i were to actually plan out their route then maybe star crossed lovers but i haven’t so idk)

enid: strangers to lovers to enemies to lovers

[orenda-if]

What's the dumbest thing that all of the ROs have done?

nasha: they ate one of their former lover’s familiar (it was a spider too like why)

l: exist they tried to win a sporting competition by using their powers and ended up setting fire to the principal’s cloak.

m: slapped the ass of their betrothed… in front of the entire court (they did not end up getting married)

lai: ended up becoming the favourite student of a teacher obsessed with lizards and had an entire plan that they would control the country.

enid: made a comment about how the food they were served looks like vomit… it was their mother who made the food.

Love this concept!! The characters all seem cool, so I was wondering if you could spare 2-3 facts about each of them to help us get to know them better!!

nasha:

plays the viola (the instrument at the bottom of the food chain but whatevs), and was mostly forced to do it by their parents

has an obsession with chocolate truffles, yes you can seduce them through chocolate

has a peregrine falcon as their familiar, she’s called mara

l:

has five sisters and three brothers, they are the second youngest child

they keep a diary and writes everything in it, they’ve had it since they were 10 (it’s obviously been replaced after it got full)

cannot cook to save their life, they’re completely useless in the kitchen

lai:

they make an incredible french toast, basically just incredible in the kitchen

they love gardening and anything to do with nature, they have a cactus called wilfred

surprisingly doesn’t need glasses, they just like wearing them

m:

their older sister (who was supposed to be the crown) went missing several years ago, and they’ve been employing the help of other sorcerers to find her

has a fascination with penguins, it’s mostly based on the fact penguins propose with pebbles

carbs. practically made of carbs, their diet mostly consists of bread, rice, potatoes and pasta (so much pasta)

enid:

they’re anaemic, so a lot of nosebleeds and fainting from them

their familiar is a dog, border collie to be exact, called cela

their spice tolerance is soo high, like they could eat spicy food for ages and act fine
