The Web Of Lies

Title: Moonlighting
Puns: Rather a lot. And not just in the title. XD
Characters: several. Some more annoying than others. Some behaving more than others. Decided runaway princess and androgynous girl disguise as a boy are the same character. No, wait, I didn't decide that, Craig did. Fail. XD Andrew still perfectly content to mess around with his radio and build an electric guitar. Managed to talk Charles out of royalty; is still insisting on nobility of some kind, and wants to be higher than Chris, who's currently a son of the 4th Earl of Aylesford. Annoyed at Jalyn for getting annoyed at me because I keep spelling his name wrong. XD
( Cut for length - there be moar updatings under here :D )

Might as well do a list of who I've got at the moment. No pics as yet; still working on them and I've only done Charles and Andrew so far. I'll do a proper post later if/when I get around to doing the rest of them.

Umm. Bit of background regarding magic.
( Magic Notes )


OH. And a note on the town divisions. [Provisional unless I get a better idea XD] Basically, after the 1791 riots, the place gets divided in two, and the Dissenters take land for themselves (and control of the canals), while the Loyalists (they weren't called that, but it will suffice - they were loyal to King and Church etc) take their own territory and control of the rail lines. In trying to intervene and fix things, King George III only allows the trains to run to the Loyalists, so to cut out the Dissenters and punish them, but not in an overly obvious way. So you have two sides, with their own armies and territory, at some sort of stand off. Neither wants to give in, and both try and rebuild in an attempt to outdo each other.


Anyway. Character list as at 15th October 2009.
( Have a cut, because I care )


I HAVE NO FEMALE CHARACTERS. SUGGESTIONS WELCOME. :D

ALSO. I DON'T KNOW IF WE'LL GET TO THE WHOLE 'ANDR00 BUILDS A PERFECT HUMAN' THING. THEY WON'T LET ME PLAN IT OUT. HAVE THREATENED ME WITH MUTINY IF I DARE. SO I SHALL JUST HAVE TO SEE HOW THINGS GO WHEN I START WRITING AND HOPE WE GET SOME SEMBLANCE OF A PLOT. D:

ALSO, IT DIDN'T HELP THAT CRAG WANTS TO BE AN ANNOYING BRAT AND RUN AROUND ANNOYING PEOPLE, RATHER THAN BE SOME PERFECT CLONE. HE THINKS IT'LL BE MORE FUN. DX

Doing steampunk this year. Because apparently I suck at resisting a challenge. XD Thanks, bewarethespork, much appreciated. :P

It'll be fanfic again. The Chaser, because that was what Jay suggested. XD

So, er, lemme present preliminary notes/synopsis/research so far. Subject to change as I keep looking into this, so yeah. This ain't set in stone. :P

Title: Moonlighting (It's a pun. Or three. Don't look so surprised. XD)

- Charles Firth (local war lord/leader/keeper of the peace; old friend of Andrew's)
- cameos from Jeff Lynne, Roy Wood and Bev Bevan  as scavengers/pirates (first people Andrew meets when he returns)(And this is only here because of watching tiny!Jeff in a pirate hat and eye patch performing in ~1971 and it amused me too much not to include it somehow. XD)(He was bouncing around! It was adorable. XD)
- Julian Morrow and Chas Licciardello (soldiers in the Loyal Birmingham Volunteers Corp, founded in 1802 by Charles' father and used to by Charles when he takes over his late father's estate to keep the peace during the crisis)(Yes, this allows for epic adventures, dammit. XD)
- Dominic Knight (general dogsbody and Charles' manservant)
- and probably others if needed. We'll see how we go.

I know it's been months, but uni took over my life and my PC got sick and I shall endeavour to fix it and work on some more Glass House over semester break.

And post those Glitter planning notes I was writing before to illustrate how annoying that fic is. Will get to that at some point. Once I've cleared all my assignments. :P
