OK... so I was re-reading some of my original stories and I can see that they sort of settled into a pattern. For those few who have been following, my first posting was about Alex and Darrvyn (can be found at my website in the "original" section), my overly angsty slash couple. For those of you who didn't figure it out -- the start of that relationship was more than slightly non-con. *shakes finger at Darr* Bad boy, no doughnut.

*coughs*

Anyhoo, after awhile, Alex angsting all over my keyboard started to get on my nerves, and I started to lose the thread of the story. So, I fumbled around in the chibi gallery and pulled out Richard. I thought he was cute and might be fun and easy to play with, so I reached back into the bag and pulled out his wife. This made him even more fun, because, let's face it... Calynn kicks major ass.

But now, as I sit here staring at my chibis, I realize that I have flubbed. She got brief mention in sniplets here and there, but I completely left out another major player in this storyline.

Alex's twin sister.

*sweatdrop*

So, since I haven't written up the beginning just yet, allow me to give you background: When Darrvyn initially invades Rilbana, he takes the twins hostage. (For the record, they were about sixteen at the time -- the main bulk of the story will take place when they are ~22.) Alex was training with the Lord Martial (Marshal? :-P) at the time and his sister (who was nameless -- or named too many times ^_^ -- until now) was training with the healers. Darr put both of their skills to good use, but soon realized that Annora's (the name I finally settled on ^_^) presence was... hmm... hindering the development of any kind of truly consensual relationship he might develop with Alex. So, he makes a deal with Alex -- you stay with me willingly and I'll see your sister to safety. Alex, young and naive as he is, agrees without asking for further details.

Idiot.

Anyway, Darr sees her to safety, all right... but not back to Rilbana. He brings her to Canaspur to be held hostage in the capital. Of course, as a royal prisoner she will be treated well... but she won't be allowed to leave. Now, eventually, Annora ends up working the situation around to her advantage because she is a clever and conniving little thing, but that's a story for another ficlet. ^_^ The point I make now is that Annora is another strong character that I wanted to pull out of the chibi gallery and play with. So... I did. ^_^

Enjoy!

An original ficlet in which Alex is angsty (as usual), Cynrik is sleazy (as usual), Annora is proud and defiant (as usual), and Darrvyn aaaaalmost gets a clue... but doesn't (as usual). )

Questions, comments, pineapples? Oh, come on, you know you want to! ^_~

And I'm sure this goes without saying, but do remember that this entire storyline and set of characters is the sole intellectual property of me. ^_^ Don't take.
