OUT OF LUX discussion

it's like those tiktocks where everyone is sneaking out of people's rooms and run into each other lmao


imagine all the bfs/prob a gf for cissy whenever ash gets around to it lol like finding out that they're dating each others partner's sister/brother/cousin 🤣

gotcha!

My Brain read computer instead of commoner 😂


@Bella
So, on the idea of childhood friends to lovers, I had the idea of making my character a super academic type as a contrast to elliot's opposing vibes lol
And he currently works in some kind of science or other researched based- field that is related to Elliot's investigative work (like forensics) that makes it so they interact a lot
not a set in stone idea, lol, i haven't really started yet, just conceptualizing so far

@ash, @bella
i have a cogworks ta who is also in the band, and i was originally thinking she could be the bf’s little half-sister, which is why she ended up in the band? (bro’s a little clingyy) i’m not sure if that works with you guys or not, i could always change it as she’s unmade!

@aelin
Ohhh I actually kinda like that! I was originally planning on having my guy be an orphan from Asterath. But maybe they did this blood test thing at school and found out they were related? It could have been kinda early on too like when they were 12 or something? And when he found out he always protective of her because she was the only known family he had? I also wanted him to be adopted into a gang but he never really fit and didn’t like it because of his personality and was always trying to find a way out of it so maybe when he was like 16 or something he ran away from the gang, lived on his own for a while and then his half sister found out and he started to live with her and her family? Idk if that’s going to work? Kinda a shot in the dark I’m kinda rambling with my thoughts right now. But also if Bella wanted to do something like that as well because this is originally her collab idea :)

ooh! if you want him to be an orphan, they could be adoptive siblings either in the orphanage or with a family? i like the gang idea, i think that could really work! your call - I don’t mind!

That works for me! I like that idea! So maybe her family/his adopted family can be the ones who own the bar in Asterath? (That was their first gig )

yeah, sounds good!
her name is megan (i was going for a slightly more normal name for once XD) but i was thinking her brother would give her a nickname like meimei? (meimei means little sister in chinese <3)
does he have a name yet?

Okay, I like that! So he was adopted into her family at 16 (or younger? I can make it younger ) when she found out he was living on the streets, and her family took him in? Am I getting that right? And yes, I was leaning towards his name being Raidan.

16 is fine with me! when would the band have been formed? when he was 16 or when he was older/younger?

@anyone
Would any of you brilliant writers be interested in making an evil Serpentine gang member: Marcos? He was Raidan's caretaker when he "adopted him" just to stir some shit up a bit
oh sure, i honestly love the idea of them both being singers. :)
