Changeling Boyfriend

Given that the town you live in is tiny and isolated, the amount of men you could court is awfully small. As the other girls begin growing into womanhood, the boys started to be snatched up faster than you can blink. Given that you had very little interest in marriage, much to your father’s chagrin, you ended up getting the leftovers of the pot when you were finally convinced to settle down.

It is not as though you don’t like any of the boys, you just don’t see how you can raise a family with them. Deciding who to spend the rest of your life with, for better or for worse, is no small task. Your mother calls you overly picky, but how can anyone blame you?

After quickly shifting through the others, you manage to start courting one of the Miller boys. Duncan has a mop of red curls, his skin peppered with countless freckles. He is a few inches taller than you, strong from carrying bags of grain to and fro, and has the most charming laugh. There is the slightest limp in his walk from an accident at the mill, barely noticeable to anyone who does not know him. Maybe not the most handsome of the town, but certainly reliable.

some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

reposting this on here because I enjoy this account and because this is a really useful visual depiction of how to mend using thread.
