Fan-rambling time!
So, yesterday Lyn dangled the tantalizing carrot in front of my nose of the possibility of Leofric being a character in the canon timeline.
Very tantalizing carrot.
Oh, and then I found out that Phelen and Wren (yay Wren) have a shadow-raven-baby, which gave me ideas.
SO. I’ve been spending a good amount of thought on how this could work out and shall present the fruits of my labors here.
YEAR 6:
Leofric, Zita, Howard and Cynara arrive at Addergoole. Leofric is Kept by an unknown upperclassman who has either already fulfilled the graduation requirement, has already arranged for how to do so, or is only a second-year so feels no pressure on that front yet. His Keeper is fairly strict and does not really get how to… what’s the word… handle him effectively. He bends, possibly breaks. His Change happens on Hell Night. He may also be caught on Hell Night; depends on who his Keeper ends up being.
Zita probably has a kid. Cynara probably does not. I have no idea who their Keepers end up being.
I have no idea about Howard. Since he wouldn’t be caught by Mags (she graduated, after all), Shiva’d probably not end up with his kid.
YEAR 7:
Leo Keeps Zita. Cabal arrives, Cya Keeps him, Yoshi is conceived. Zita probably has another kid. Leo doesn’t. Howard probably doesn’t.
YEAR 8:
Ruki and Viddie are both conceived, unless Lyn has other timeline ideas in mind for Cya.
YEAR 9:
TBD
THE INTERIM:
TBD
2011 (Shortly after end of YEAR 16):
Apocalypse. The Crew moves out to a ranch in Wyoming.
YEAR ~22:
Ruki goes to Addergoole. I really want there to be some sort of thing with her and Raven. Haven’t decided what, yet. (Not a romance, obviously, as Ruki is Aelfgar’s grandchild on both sides. But they may have a kid at some point in the timeline? BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE COOL.)
Yoshi also goes to Addergoole?
YEAR ~23:
Viddie goes to Addergoole. He’d probably go later because boys tend to hit puberty later.
I don’t know when the other kids go, yet.


<3 yes.
Wyatt, perhaps, for Cynara. Or Phelen. Phelen would give her the right mix of tender control, although a cy'Linden would give her the monogamy fetish.
Shiva could still talk Howard into her bed.
Shiva gets a kid by Howard, then! :D
Do I get a vote on Cya’s Keeper? Can I vote for Phelen? :D?
Oh, wow. That would… work. It would be interesting.
