It wasn't so hard, after all, to find Dollkot Kiss his name. He will be Miron. Yes, another French name, that's because he has partially a similar background as Etienne has :) I came to that conclusion when cooking some noodle soup and idly pondering the past lives of my future BJDs and how they end up living with me, and suddenly it dawned to me - he is from the same school Etienne comes from, though they don't know each other, there are too many years separating them; Etienne is 18 when he moves in, and Miron will be only about 14 or 15 or so - and that a year later too. Having figured that out, it suddenly dawned to me Miron's name will start with the syllable "mi", and the rest was easy. I'm really relieved, finding out Etienne's name was hard enough (took me two days of nonstop thinking about it), and I was afraid Miron would be even more hesitant to reveal his name, but it took some 15-20 minutes XD Now all I now have to do is to figure out a surname for him :)
I might as well mention some things about their past:
First of all, the school from which Etienne and Miron come from is a boarding school for upper class (read, near aristocratic) or wealthy children, who have lost their parents and have no relatives to go to, or who have no realtives who would take them in.
Etienne de Silhouette is 18 when he will come to me, he has lived at the school several years, and has just graduated. He was supposed to come to Finland to start studying at the University of Helsinki, and that is why he moves in to my household - he however has no intention of starting his studies, and ends up squirming out of both studying and returning back to France. He is a normal human, with a seemingly innocent and pure bearing, yet he is rather devious young man who knows what he wants and how to get it, and still appear like a little angel in the process.
Dalarion de Verre is a vampire. Back in the old days when he was still alive, he was an aristocrat in Florence, this was sometime during the reign of the Medici family. So in other words he is several hundreds of years old. How he ends up with me is a story I learned one night - a saw a very vivid dream which gave life to the character of Dalarion. This is how the dream went: Dalarion ends up living with me because I accidentally woke him up from the slumber he had fallen into, we sensed eachothers' precense and a bond was formed (and for the story's sake I'll pretend that happened when I was in Stratford because there are no suitable chapels here, and we did wander through the graveyard of the Holy Trinity Church in the middle of the night after the play Hamlet on our way to our Bead and Breakfast place we were staying in). His physical form, however, was stolen shortly afterwards, and he has remained in a sort of a spirit form with me, now and then parting to search for his physical form. Once it is found, he will return to me permanently. Dalarion is a creature of immense natural authority and charisma.
Hummingbird Dream is somewhere in his mid twenties when he comes to live with us. I don't know yet why or how he ends up living with us, but he is neither purely human nor purely a creature of fantasy. He, I think, is a dreamweaver of sorts. I have a feeling he and Dalarion might be connected somehow, I just don't know how yet - it could be that Dalarion and Hummingbird have met in Hummingbird's dreams during Dalarion's spirit wanderings in his search for his body, and those dreams have prompted him to search for Dalarion, tracing his steps to me. We'll see. But one thing I know for sure: Hummingbird is an intellectual with an intense love for books.
And finally Miron. Miron is a "normal" human as well, somewhere around 14 or 15, I'll know his age for sure when he arrives. He has lived only a short while at the school. He ends up living with me when I talk with the school's headmaster about Etienne's situation - refusing to start his studies - and the headmaster asks if I could also take one "trouble case" in, as I have studied children's psychology and have some experience in working with "trouble cases". Miron lost his parents several years ago, but he was first bounced from one relative to another, all more or less unable to take proper care of the boy, he was both spoiled and ignored at the same time, resulting in him becoming mute, moody, temperamentical, and all in all a trouble maker. He has also seemingly remained mentally on a stage of a much younger child, often behaving like a ten year old little brat, though from time to time he seems much more mature than his years would imply. After all this he was send to the school, which needless to say was not equipped to handle a boy like him. And ofcourse I cannot refuse, and take him in - to the dismay of the already present residents XD
So, here they are, the lot of them who have already gotten names and personalities, I really hope there won't be many more coming after that, I have no idea what so ever where to put them ^^;;
But off to continue studying again =^~^=
