crossover_chick | Family Trees!

Just made one for the Liddell family -- which is rather small and full of dead people. Fun! I also have one for the Van Dorts -- I've probably shared it here before, but here is it again, just because:

Alice's tree is very simple, since I'm going off the idea her parents are both only children. (If she'd had uncles or cousins, I think she would have gone to stay with them instead of Bumby.) I came up with the deaths of her grandparents on the fly -- I think she only knew the two who died of old age, and then only briefly. Of course, her parents and Lizzie suffered much more tragic deaths. . .

And here's the Van Dort family tree, which is a touch more complex. Don't be fooled by some of the positioning -- Peter was William's older brother, while Elaine is Nell's younger sister. Nell doesn't like to associate with her "lower-class" family, so Victor's never met his mother's side of the tree. Which is kind of a shame, since Elaine is more sensible and personable than her older sister.

Much nicer out today than yesterday, hooray. I went for a walk and got myself a Cake Batter ice cream shake. Yum.
-TTV: Cake Batter? I thought you would have gone with chocolate?-
Well, I like cake batter ice cream. Nice and sugary. And it has chocolate swirls in it, which is nice. Still think I like the Malted Milk Ball shake I can get at our other local ice cream place best, though. Nom.
Writing also continues to go pretty well, all things considered. Another interesting prompt at

charloft: Story Structure for Secundus. And I've gotten a couple more fics written for the 14 Sins & Virtues table. Paired "Faith" with the WALL*E verse (which means that pair's done), and "Charity" with the Nightmare House verse. Still working on the others. But hey, it's a fun little table, and helps get some of these weird transplant universes out of my head.
Still, I should work on "Finding You" -- I really want to get at least the first couple of chapters up before I go back to school. So yeah, I'll go do that for now. Later!
