The Jungle…
Dorian: “Hey, a little help guys?”
(Finally) Five Years Later…
Selvadoradian Villa, Selvadorada Jungle
It was raining. It was always fucking raining. It seems that’s why they call it the rain forest.
Hi everyone! Just popping in to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!
Enjoy these cards I made to celebrate the season…
Random stuff happened before the five year time skip…
Like Dorian learning to be a Dad.
Dorian: “So uh, you wanna learn how to use the potty?”
Cristal: “No poop!”
Dorian: “Uh…”
Hey everyone! I know, it’s been pretty quiet in here. Things will pick back up soon. Right now I’m enjoying playing through toddler stage Cristal with Dorian finishing up his degree. Cute stuff… I’ll share pictures soon.
But on to the meat and potatoes of this post… I have completed the sketch cards of each one of the generations so far.
An Aaron Aside…
Well before a five year time skip…
The last time we saw Aaron and Lilith together was when she looked like this:
Dorian was devastated. His life was in shambles.
He had cheated on the one woman that had been there for him through thick and thin. His betrayal had sent her packing.
The woman that he had cheated with had torn at his heart strings. Drenching up feelings that he thought were dead and gone. Before he could talk to her and bury those misguided feelings, she was dead. Dead at the hands of her husband’s lover.
The situation had turned worse. The husband spurned the lover for the murder and that sent the lover even further over the edge. She turned on the husband and in the scuffle, the husband murdered his lover. In one final act of guilt and remorse, the husband killed himself rather than live with the shame of what had transpired.
Dorian and his brother, Poe, had been witness to the whole mess. The cops weren’t sure how the brothers were involved, but it was a long while before their innocence was proven. It helped that their mother was now head of the City’s council, having ousted her uncle from his seat and rising up the ranks.
Dorian’s decision to keep the child of his deceased childhood friend and former lover was met with minimal objections. The City could not find any information about the child’s father. He wasn’t from their City and the mega cities did not share records, so there was no data to go off of. Dorian’s family was concerned, but supportive. They weren’t sure if the lazy son could raise a grieving toddler, but they would be there for him no matter what.
Author’s Notes:
Trigger warning- Violence.
If you are adverse to extreme acts of violence, please skip this chapter. There will be a recap next chapter. Thanks.
David moved into the kitchen. He needed room to think, to breathe. How was Journey so calm about this?
Author’s Notes:
Trigger warning- violence. If violent acts bother you, please skip the next two chapters. I’ll recap it later.
Cristal woke from her nap to find her mother absent. Her cries prompted Matilda to come check on her.
Matilda had one simple question: “Where was Miri?”
