Giving mom a kiss before bedtime.

Lmao what would happen when Blane and MC get together??? Imagine A opening up a book of all curses and swear words xD

A when talking to best friend!mc: Oh dear, oh dear, gorgeous.

A when talking to Blane: YOU FUCKING DONKEY.

and you will get nearly this exact type of dialogue in chapter four in the scenes where A and Blane are forced into a room with each other lmao. it's scarily accurate.

hey what kind of clothes does the queen wear? for research purposes...

Uh-huh... "research purpose". I'm watching you, Salty. 😑

Under the cut!

She mostly wears something that's like this! Though it's more violet in color than black.

It mixes with this:

And this is what she wears to parties:

Thank you!!

Can you give more detailed descriptions of what the characters look like if you're alright with that? Also A..... I am looking (respectfully)

What if A... wanted you to look disrespectfully? 👀 (just kidding but it’s something they would say only to end up cringing about themself)

Don't you worry, I'll cover you up by embarrassing myself more!! That's X's aura for you ❤️☺️

i just now realized what you guys meant by crushing/relantionship stage and urgh what a dumb bitch i am

I THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT YOURSELVES

A woman’s “poesy ring” with initials, from 1592, made of gold and rock crystal. On the ring’s inner surface is inscribed, “The cruel seas, remember, took him in November.” From a love token to a memorial/ mourning ring, a fate that often befell many wives or mistresses of sailors. 

The Students of Ehrenreich - Part One

The Potential RO’s (AKA the students who can crush on the MC)

Vitalius Ornstein/Astasus Ehrenreich:

Human Male, 9 - The stolen and presumed dead prince of the human Ornstein Empire, Astasus is the original Carmine’s love interest, and the source of her demise; in the first book, through his heroic deeds he managed to bring the Ehrenreich Organization to its knees. Now, he is but a boy caught in the plot of the story you know, eager to please and determined to have your back no matter what. 

Eratine Ehrenreich:

Male Blood Elf, 11 - Among the first to die originally, Eratine is a snarky and abrasive brat determined to make your nightmarish life in Ehrenreich all the worse. The second he lays eyes on you he hates you, though he doesn’t seem to get along well with his other classmates either. Still, when you need him most he will do his best to rise to the occasion and his constant nagging seems to be a cover for the very real concern he holds for the others. 

Bernadine Ehrenreich:

Female Electra, 12 - Bernadine is a quiet and observant genius who always keeps to herself. Using her inborn abilities to handle and use tech, Bernadine spends her days skipping class and experimenting in her room. The others avoid her and she goes out of her way to avoid them - she has plans, and the other students would only get in the way.

Brigid Ehrenreich:

Female Fae, 11 - Upon learning that her iridescent eyes link her to fae royalty, Brigid will only respond to the name she chose from the historical records of Theun: Princess Hesychia Meloda Ionnina. She’s haughty and high strung, believing that her placement in Ehrenreich is some mistake, and that any day now she’ll be taken to the Theun Organization: Libraria. Believing it to be her ‘noble’ duty, she’s the first to help you when you need it and the first to hide behind you when danger approaches. 

Miki-Tane Ehrenreich

Male Xidhe, 12 - Despite his academic genius, Miki is always looking to have fun, often at the expense of others. He’s the first to chant: “Fight!” when fists fly, and he’s the first one blamed when Eratine wakes up with scribbles on his face. Still, when things go bump in the night he’s the one baring the door and when the others are in danger he’s the first to step in front of them. 

Diacinth Ehrenreich

Male High Elf, 10 - In the original book, Diacinth was the last of the other students to die - his constant use of invisibility charms and hatred of talking meant he was able to outlast most. He’s painfully shy, though you’d need to be able to see him first to try and start a conversation. He doesn’t sleep in his bed, opting to sleep underneath it, and the few times you catch him unawares he runs away. Still, when you need a pencil sharpener or an eraser, one will magically appear on your desk where the wasn’t one before. 

Nonnatus Ehrenreich

Human Male, 10 - Nonnatus wasn’t raised in the church; abused and neglected by a cruel merchant for his powers, he sees the Church as his saviour. Despite the danger lurking around every corner, he refuses to believe the Church or the teachers are behind it. Fiercely loyal and determined to turn a blind eye to all the horrors Ehrenreich has to offer, he sees the others as doubters in the Church’s majesty, you included, and antagonizes them at all costs.

Lost Words: Beyond the Page is a touching narrative-driven platforming adventure where words can have a dramatic effect on the game world!
