WIP Update – 24 Oct 26
I didn’t get much done in DA besides a little profile writing. I need to prep Destiny and Mary Ann for their debut, so we’ll be getting to that soon.
In Zeta, I decided to continue the scenario with Yuri the klutzy copper along the lines I was considering last time. The premise is that Kazuya (the MC, no relation to the other iterations of Kazuya that show up in other stories) is the grandson of a Kazakh woman and to satisfy her and her clan, he does a bit of bride kidnapping. If seriously challenged, he would back down, but Yuri is far too into the scenario to put up more than just a little pro forma objection. Kazuya helpfully tells her that her male relatives can either pick her up or recognize the marriage. In the latter case, they’ll go right ahead and formalize it. He lets her borrow the house phone and she calls up her mom. After papering over the whole kidnapping bit, Yuri’s mom wants to know practical things like Kazuya’s income. I have him as a freeter in this story, but if he can secure a wife, his grandmother’s clan will recognize his claim to a decent stretch of land in the mother country. This gets his potential mother-in-law’s attention. I’d say he’s pretty well got it in the bag.
We’ll see what I get up to next. Stay tuned.
