A quick rundown

Cinderpatton/Thompunzel Masterpost

Sloane and Elliot are Royality children. Elliot is older, and the Crown Heir, future Monarch. Doesn’t stop them from being as sarcastic as their uncle and their godparent (Joan), and often finds Sloane’s pushy nature and unending optimism a bit exhausting. They love their little bro tho. 

Nate (oldest of the four cousins) is the Remas son. A sleepy and lazy boy. Very good at pulling his cousins away from whatever they’re supposed to be doing and dragging them along for whatever catches his fancy at that moment.

Kai is the Analogical son and the shortest of the cousin crew, despite Sloane being the youngest. A bit abrasive & can cuss you out in English Solish AND Sign Language. Wants to be active but he can’t so he either settles for heckling the others on the sidelines or Nate gives him a piggyback to wherever they’re going. 

Are they adopted? yes. Do I have plans to address it beyond that? Nope.

Elliot regularly travels to the nearest village to get ideas of what would improve every day life

On one such visit they run into a man named Gavin running a jewelry shop.

The jewels used are HUGE and really high quality. 

Elliot questions where he gets them and Gavin shrugs.

“Just my luck I guess.” As he says this, an iolite, an agate , and a sapphire tumble from his lips.

“What the heckity heck, five abs and one peck??”

“Pardon???” a large garnet joins the others

“Sorry it’s just something my papa taught me. WHAT THE F///?!?!”

So it turns out Gavin and his brother were blessed/cursed as kids, though they aren’t really sure who got the blessing and who got the curse.

Whenever he talks, jewels come out of his mouth. But if he uses it too much he gets such a sore throat that he comes down with a fever and people only ever value him for the gems.

His twin brother, however, has snakes and bugs come out of his mouth, which drives people away. But the snakes and bugs do what he asks and are useful for defense. As well as making him a tidy sum in a bug and snake racing track.

It’s... not great. Especially since, other than writing, they don’t really have another way to communicate. 

Elliot asks if they ever thought of sign language

Which Gavin has NEVER heard of before. 

Elliot agrees to give them both lessons!

And over time Elliot and Gavin slowly fall in love.

Gavin is a little worried that Elliot is only pretending because they want the gemstones (which has happened before)

Elliot rushes to tell him that that isn’t the case! They’re the heir to the throne they don’t need-... oops
