Extra 5_Late first anniversary
Hello readers, as you can read on the title this isn't a new chapter but at the same time not an extra chapter. Even if you don't read this, you won't miss anything at all because I won't write anything special at all. But at the same time there will be maybe some interesting things to be read. Some spoilers maybe? But of course, the spoilers won't be that big because some thing still needs to be kept a secret.
It's already been more than a year since I first published this novel, but I was too lazy to do something that's why I only updated today. Not because I didn't want to study for school…
If you want to know, I already have an idea for the next chapter and some things may seem illogical, but just ignore it, okay?
=>How did I come up with the story?
Funny fact, I dreamed about it. I could see them, but at the same time not. After I first dreamed about 'the story' I was always daydreaming about it, and I wanted to write it down because I really liked the story I saw when I was dreaming.
=>Did the story flow as I wanted?
No, it didn't. I find that I write too much about a day, but I can't change it because I like the story too much!
=>Is the end already decided?
Yes, I already decided how to end the story. It was decided when I first published this story on Webnovel, but I do have to admit that not everyone would be happy with that ending. Do not be angry at me how it will end because it really isn't my fault!
=>About our Adorable boy, Lucius
I won't lie that the Lucius in my mind was a bit different, but I still like him sooooo much! They differ but they have a lot of similarities. The biggest difference would definitely be that his personality when he arrived in his 'new' world was a bit too different, lmoa. He should be more difficult to be close to because he didn't show a lot of emotions, you know, but in the end, he became a soft boy who doesn't know how to react at some time. He wants to change, but he finds it quite hard to be 'his true self'.
From cold boy to soft boy!
I'm not sure if you noticed, but most of the time Lucius isn't an active person when there is a conversation. I chose to do so because like I said before he doesn't know how to react at some times. He can't react in a way other than making the other feel good, feel appreciated. There is nothing wrong, but at the same time it is difficult for him to say what he wants to say. Lucius will learn to talk more, to do the things he likes and so on now that Lin arrived. It will take a long time, but I do hope you'll be able to see his slow but gradually change.
I'll do my best!
=>About our Golden boy, Erebus
Same here, the boy in my mind was different from the boy I presented you. In reality he was more of a cold boy like the first time he appeared. He knew what he wanted and hated. He wouldn't care about someone's else their feelings excluding his loved ones. But the boy you all know, is more caring than the first version. Erebus is kinder but doesn't let people in his heart. He is kind and approaches Lucius a lot of times, but if he is genuinely a friend is not really sure. It can be that I made Lucius too precious that Erebus changed automatically to a kinder version.
From mean person to nice person!
I once wrote that the eyes from our boy are golden, but this didn't come up any other time than that chapter. I kind of forgot haha… But it will be used later in the story, probably…
=>About our Mean boy, Narcys
He is someone who resembles a lot of how I imagined him to. Maybe he even became a bit more straightforward than planned. He got a part from my first Erebus, LOL. He kind of became the bad boy in the story because he made our boy, Lucius, cry. Sadly, he does play a big role in the story so live with it, I guess.
From mean person to a meaner person!
I'm not sure if you are interested in it, but I'll be talking now about the dream he had before. Erebus sleeps a lot if you didn't notice. Ever since he was a child he dreamt about random things. It could be about a park or about a village. It would be always something different, but he liked it. Even when he only saw a big tree, Narcys felt at peace in his dreams. The woman who he dreamed about wasn't the first time he met/saw her, but before he only dreamed small things and couldn't even see her. You can say that dreaming was an escape for him, no more like the world he longed for.
More will be known as you'll read the story further, but when is the question.
=>Our Savior girl, Lin
She is mostly the same as how I imagined. If I'm honest, her story would be more interesting than Lucius's, but I decided to not write it, but combine it in this story. The more you read the more you'll know about her. She is someone who always tries her best and tries her best to make her close ones happy. She looks like a 'perfect' person on the outside, but in reality she is an uneasy person. The more she tries to make everyone happy, the more she feels alone. This isn't totally like Lucius, but the same time it is. The difference is that Lin knows what she is doing. She wouldn't do the things she doesn't like, but sometimes you don't have any other choice…
From positive girl to uneasy girl
Lin is a special girl even in her own 'world'. There are a lot of people who don't like her because of… That is a secret, LOL. But she has a lot of people around her who will protect her even when she doesn't need their protection.
=>Story
So, I decided to write the story in four parts. The first one will be the first year, this will mostly be how Lucius will change with the help of his friends. The second part will be obviously in their second year, everyone/some of them will learn more about who Lin truly is. This will be the part with the most information. The third part will be in their third year, the relations will be blooming then. So, it will be mostly a sweet arc. The last one will be after graduating and at the same time the shortest part of them all.
Afterwards I'll be writing some side chapter for some characters to tie up the loose ends.
But that would be basically how this story will flow. I'm still not sure how I'll write the current part, but it will be fine, I hope.
=>Lin & Melissa
I once told yall that Lilyann was somehow based of my best friend. In reality there are some that resembles me. Who you ask? They are Lin and Melissa. I won't say we resemble each other a lot because the more I write about them the more they differ from me.
Lin is a bit like how I was in my childhood. She is a positive person who seems to be able to do everything. From good grades to being good at sport, she seems like a perfect person. (There is a reason for it, so don't think too much!) Of course, I don't want to brag that I was perfect when I was young because I wasn't. Sometimes I even cringe at what I did! But you can say that back then I could do everything better. I felt better.
I mentioned about how Lin sometimes felt lonely when she made people around her happy. I didn't mean that she was always lonely or something like that. She felt happy making other people happy, but because of all that she feels like her opinion isn't always as important as the rest. I think this is a part that resembles the me right now. I don't like it when there are people, who I truly like, who are sad or just not in a good mood around me. I feel like I should make their day better, happier. But because of this I sometimes feel like they all take me lightly, as if I don't have any human feelings...
But okay, I won't say too much otherwise I'll spoil too much and that won't be fun, right?
About Melissa, she resembles me in my teens. How I currently am, I guess. And once more, we aren't totally the same! She understands herself a bit better than I do. I always feel quite uncertain about lot of things. I don't know what I need to do at specific times, but Melissa already has a better grip on her. She knows what she can and can't do. Just like in the extras when her parents were arguing. She knows that everything would be even worse if she mingles between it, but maybe that's why I somehow feel like crying when I think about her. Knowing that she shoulders a lot of things because she is different from her family, siblings.
Just as her my current grades aren't something to show off. Even when I try I don't always succeed. Even when I can feel it in my bones: "I know how I need to solve this." The answer is still wrong even when all the steps are taking what I should have done. It's just painful, you know? Melissa too is a girl who struggles to keep up with the others. She always had grades above the average, but now she struggles between the people who all are on a different level. When she could attend the school her friends attended, she was shocked bit most of all happy because she isn't someone who could make new friends easily.
You can just sum it up with that she is a girl with a lot of hardship and pain. She goes through so much that even crying may seem like a waste of time in her eyes. But I'm not planning to make her live miserable because she is one of them who deserves a happy ending.
That's about it, I guess. I hope you enjoyed the extra information. I wish you a nice day!
P.S: If you all are curious about the stupid things I did as a kid, just ask. I'll put it as an action in Lin or Melissa, so do tell me if you're interested.
P.S.S: I almost forgot! A big thank you for Corninha_69_106_ and WeirdPandaPerson for the PowerStones.
