Two orphaned cabin boys end up shipwrecked in the most inhospitable town known to man. A friendship forms between them, the local postman and his family, and an lonely mountain girl. Despite resistance from the town's leaders, that friendship finds a way to change the town and its citizens for the better. Inspired by the Netflix movie Klaus.
Written for FlashLight Week 2021 Day 4
Prompt: Secret
Can I say I love how Limestone has been introduced and covered just far? I think I shall. But I wonder do Chrysalis and Tirek fear her, I'd believe it but she might come off as a little OP.
Well it wasn't like all the signs that Limestone was gonna work Flash to the bone weren't there. Let's see how this all plays out
Pinkie is Santa, change my mind!
10871865
To quote Steve Rogers: "No, I don't think I will."
Yep, Pinkie is Santa
This looks good so far. Might take me awhile to read through it all though.
10872118
I realize that.
Can't really blame the two, given the lot they live with.
Well, that could have ended better.
I am guessing Limestone was actually the closest of the Pies to the late Granny Pie and it hurt her the most... I am much closer to my own grandmother than my brother and I know I am going to take her passing much worse then him...
Pinkie is a shipper and. FlashLight shipper... I am so proud of her.
Well this is getting interesting...
Well the two villains were not the sharpest of tacs.
So Chrysalis is the brains of this operation... I guess we'll see soon.
BTW what did cause the feud?
10872289
Whatever caused the feud in the source material.
10872294
Okay... I haven't seen it.
But that end...
Looking good so far and we are being introduced to more characters.
Oh "joy" there's Timber. At least he kinda makes sense here about how dumb and pointless the feud is.
Although I understand Twilight's reasoning against paying Flash out of their savings, she seems to lack a bit of empathy for him and First. Hopefully that will change.
I admit that Limestone if my least personal favorite of the Pie sisters, but she can still be pretty entertaining. I bet it will be fun seeing how things turn out with Flash working for her.
That's Limestone for ya.
Leave it to Pinkie to bring smiles and happiness no matter the situation.
Thanks to Pinkie things are already getting better.
Twilight finally helps Flash out a bit!
Kinda like how they say you only really die when you are forgotten.
Looks like Flash and First Base just made a world of difference for Twilight’s family.
I knew it was only a matter of time before Timber showed his true colors and became a toxic influence on Twilight.
He’s right. She seriously needs to wake up and realize that he’s nothing but trouble.
Pinkie's going to do something to get Flash and Twilight to become a couple isn't she? Good girl.
Pinkie making everyone happy and bringing friends together through her parties!
Shows how one small thing can make a big difference.
Tirek and Chrysalis make a temporary truce to ensure things can go "back to normal" and their feud and brawls can continue? That sounds beyond ridiculous and petty.
Finally!
10875698
Just like in the source material.
Break the cycle of hate.
The two of them did a much better job sabotaging hint in canon.
10876054
I know.
Those two are more desperate than I thought. But threatening the lives of others is just crossing the line.
I have to admit, Flash is a bigger man than me. I would have let the asshole drown and just call it karma catching up to him.
Let’s hope this is the one time Timber chooses not to be a complete piece of shit.
I agree, you did the Twilight/Pinkie dynamic well.
This was a pretty adorable chapter, despite Flash’s current state.
Great chapter! Chrysalis and Tirek got what they deserved, and them getting tortured by Pinkie is hilarious! Limestone acting as a warden to Timber and Pharynx was also great.
But the best moment was between Flash and Twilight obviously.
Golden!
Great ending! I don’t know if it as good as the story you previously made where Flash proposes to Sci-Twi and they get engaged, but this is still a great proposal scene in its own right.
Intriguing start. I wonder what made Twilight be so cold in here (and what's gonna take for her to start warming up to certain someone ).
All I can do for today is chapter 1, but I thought I'd leave my comment to let you know that I've fnally started reading this! Sorry it took me a few days But I'm in now, so let's see where this will go!
Oh! I would've bet good money on the Ma Hooffield and Big Daddy McColt as the main feuding matriarch and patriarch, respectively, but Tirek and Chrysalis aren't a bad choice, and work, considering those characters in the movie were significantly more evil than my original choices. So, props for an unexpected but still fitting casting!
Well, at least you made Timber slightly likeable here (at least when comparing him to the rest of the townfolk, or heck, even Twilight herself in this story). So looks like he'll be a tolerable character to read.
10883061
Unfortunately, he's going to get really unlikable the next time you see him. Fair warning.
10890165
Ah, darn. I knew he felt a bit too uncharacteristically likeable.
I mean, she is a jerk, but you can kind of understand where she's coming from. There's still plenty of chapters to go on, so I trust during the course of them you'll make them as shippable as ever.
(P.S: Sorry it took me so long to get back to this story. Gonna try my best to not leave it abandoned for so many days anymore!)
