I want to write about Yin, who's a terrible person, staggered by loss and slightly manipulative, and the mystery behind his mother, the soldier of the suicide cult, and their vanishing, and the way in which he brings a god down to earth and forces it to take back its curse and to listen. I want to give the librarian a name, I want to give the noble and the servant and the ambassadors their names, I want to do this research and sink into the thought of the books and another court and another culture and the false heir to a throne who needs him, and I want thisssssss.
I want to write about Idony, who goes by Dawn at school, and who is thoroughly unimpressed by her talented poison-breeding erhu-playing family with all their miniature feuds and incapabilities, and who's constantly sorting them out with a straight face while calling them on their idiocies. I want her to find the dragon in the basement and then to go on to the larger mystery of who is trying to kill her family off while also marveling at the stupidity of a plan that requires all of them to stay locked up in the mansion while she attempts to solve it with the only people she feels she can trust, who are not adults.
I want to write Rin and A's ridiculous fairytale conman adventures, and how A falls in love with the wrong girl and Rin gets over her crush because wonder's more interesting than pining and the Marquise learns through them how to be human and all together they split the lands apart and put it together again -- not even in a better way, necessarily, so much as a way more convenient for humans, because they're selfish and teenagers and cleverer than anybody else! I EVEN WANT TO DO THE FUCKING CROSSOVER down the line with Cameron's exorcist set. :(
Rin is clever and Dawn is practical and Yin is thinly, dreamily malicious, which means all of them have a sense of humor that Lise, at the moment, doesn't. It comes out here and there but largely she's so obsessed by the thought of Connor and finding him that she gets grim and savage. She's very angry about it in a way I've completely lost the way to empathise with -- I just don't care as much as she does! I WANT HER TO BE INTERESTING BUT SHE'S SO MAD AND YET SHE REFRAINS FROM PUNCHING PEOPLE (why does she do this except to progress with the story? augh!!) and I always forget to write in that she wants to punch people. It is like a constant thought droning at the back of her mind!
