♥ Beautiful Silence :: Sena's Writing Blog ♥

A while back I set up a Valdemar rpg on LJ (valdemar_main) called Silver And Sapphire. There were a bunch of people who expressed interest in it while I was putting all the community stuff together... but then when I actually finished and opened it up for apps, only one person applied. :P

I had already created my characters for S&S though, so I was left with five new alters (well, four new + my long-time Grove Born Stallion, Gwydion) that are just sitting around collecting dust. =/

So I'm thinking I might try writing some short stories with them. I've got three Companions (Magic, Rift and Piper), and one Heraldic Trainee (Metty Cox) to work with, and I never run out of inspiration for new characters, so I could fill in the cast for any fics I wanted to write with relative ease.

I'm considering writing with Metty and pairing him up with one of the Companions. I can't seem to decide between Rift and Piper, though. I am leaning toward Piper a little more, just because I think her personality would play well off of Metty's. Rift is a lot quieter and more shy, which is pretty much the complete opposite of Metty and Piper (and Magic, but I have some tentative plans for a different storyline for her.)

And of course Gwydion has been my standard Grove Born for years now, so he's been paired with a bunch of different Heralds in various fics. Saet, Chav, Yitro, Colby, etc. Though I suppose I could write a Choosing fic with him and use Metty for that. I've never dealt with any of Gwydion's Choosings in my writing... just Saet in the Valdemar Calling rpg way back when.

...and now I'm considering sticking Metty with 'Dion. XD;;

Though now that I think about it, Metty is very unlike Gwydion's other Heralds. It might be interesting to give him someone different for a change. Hmm...

But lawl that still leaves me with the question of what to do with Rift and Piper. I guess I can work on Chosen for them as well, though. Or even Companion-centric adventure fic. That might be interesting! 8D;

NOTE: I actually started writing this entry a little over a week ago, and then got side-tracked by an abrupt visit to the ER and subsequent emergency surgery to remove my gall bladder, as it tried very hard to kill me. On Dec 23rd. Jerk.

EDIT: Oh. And I just looked at the clock. Happy New Year! ♥
