COME RIGHT IN
If you're looking for a soft touch, come right in. The show will start in a minute. Come right in. Have a seat. Don't worry about a thing. I'm sure they'll find your ashes once it's all over. Eventually.

Romance in WIP? Star-crossed lovers, I’m afraid.💔 One of them was never meant to exist. I suspect it'll all end in tears & the destruction of the world as they know it. However, this is just the first draft; their chances may improve as the story develops.😉

There was a family of brownies living in the Book Wyrm's house, which was quite unusual (they tend to be solitary creatures). The Book Wyrm didn't mind, though. Each night, the brownies would come down from their hiding places to take care of the housework.
