A- Alright, gang! Since we can’t bring Skylar to the studio–it would give her an existential crisis with technology far more advanced than hers–I’ve magically arrived through a portal into her world and totally didn’t give her a heart attack by showing up out of nowhere, right, Skye?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAxMb57JHYTm
S- (Panicking) How’d you get here? What are you? Why are you here?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAnpeMFVmQcX
A- (Waving a hand) Ah, you’ll be alright. Anyways, Skylar, my readers have some questions for you, and I’d like you to answer them as honestly as possible.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAoYqbitzYWs
S- Your-your readers? I’m sorry, I don’t understand. Can I just go back to where I was?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAFuck3kuK0K
A- No.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAM8H03B0ruP
S- (Sighing) Fine.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1iqhdVB4A
A- Alright, our first question comes from a reader called Alex_. Alex_ asks, "What are some things you find cute about a friend of yours, Luke?"
495Please respect copyright.PENANAqYB5zlw0ZM
S- (Blushing) We-well, he’s kind. And brave. He’s willing to give up everything for the ones he cares about, or people he barely knows. He cares so much, and I-I…I wanted to do the same for him…(Eyes welling up with tears) And I-I want to get back to him…but what if I can’t find him?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAiQ6ADSnUxk
A- Now, now, don’t get in so much of a pickle, Skylar, this wasn’t meant to make you upset. Here, let’s liven the mood a little…(Reading the next question) With…uh…(Sweat rolls down their forehead)
495Please respect copyright.PENANASseOzaR2Ll
S- What? What is it?
495Please respect copyright.PENANA8HTK1FE1NM
A- Well, the next question says, "Have you ever met a sexist person?"
495Please respect copyright.PENANAP1DhL0mg3N
S- Oh. (Taking a deep breath) Well, there were quite a few in the Secret Woods. After Papa died, I wanted to join the guard, but-
495Please respect copyright.PENANALVUsg3zqlQ
A- Hold on, I’m gonna stop you right there.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAaZAOptxqDm
S- Why?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAeYYxL5ZG4i
A- That’s something that we find out about in the next book.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAZfsnAgwd2W
S- We-we what? Next book? I’m sorry, I’m still not following-
495Please respect copyright.PENANAUP3Mmnch5f
A- It’s alright, you don’t have to. You’ll just…have a flashback in the next book. (Looking at the reader) And we wouldn’t want to have any spoilers…right?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAWpkpxWXnOw
S- (Clears her throat)
495Please respect copyright.PENANAKRn86zHQje
A- Right, right. Next question! Alex_ also asks, "How do you feel about being her favorite?"
495Please respect copyright.PENANAZ94XPUOb4A
S- I’m still very confused. Who’s Alex_? Why are there readers? And- did you say I’m her favorite?
495Please respect copyright.PENANANwKFXxncmd
A- (Nodding) Mmmhmm.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAuE8sITuLrP
S- (Blushing) Oh, uh…thank you? I feel honored. I didn’t know I was anyone’s favorite.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAdZlhvVjQge
A- (Muttering) Yeah, you’re also Luke’s favorite…
495Please respect copyright.PENANAOvBdgTRrH0
S- Did you say something?
495Please respect copyright.PENANA0TvobqcPNt
A- (Nervously clearing their throat) Uh…nothing. And Alex_ asks, "Do you like your outfit choice?" And I ask, "Why?"
495Please respect copyright.PENANAlKMqDFgNyu
S- Wow. Such specific questions. The answer is yes. I love the style, and the clothes allow me to run faster and move easier when I fight. At least, that’s what I think.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAtNVeXsIDaI
A- It might be more of a confidence thing.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAtF88duLZFu
S- Yeah, it could be.
495Please respect copyright.PENANA1AxCqBKOxC
A- Alex_’s final question is, "What do you plan on doing with your new wolf friend, Luna?"
495Please respect copyright.PENANALv5zje6APP
S- (Thinking) I don’t really know. I mean, I had thought about letting her return to the wild, but she’s been following me ever since I helped her. If she wants, she can stay with me, I guess.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAgXjq7oqQrS
A- Alright! That’s all the questions for now!
495Please respect copyright.PENANAfX3kOD2Fd4
S- Wait! I don’t know who you are, but I feel like you’re in control of what happens here in this world. What are you? A god? A sorcerer?
495Please respect copyright.PENANADEl8cRYKbv
A- (Smiling) No, I’m none of those. I’m simply an author. But there is someone else who has orchestrated this whole thing from the beginning. Someone who will be revealed in the final book.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAAEbIOCGNhI
S- I still have no idea what you’re talking about.
495Please respect copyright.PENANACvvjRLbz6Y
A- I know. (Pointing to the reader) But it’ll make sense to them.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAvutjsPo36F
S- (Looking) Who are they, really?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAiEBaznW7Zq
A- (A tear forming in their eye) Someone who cares about you very much. But you’ll never get to meet them.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAsHBu9JSMZ9
S- (Looking at the ground) Do…you care about me?
495Please respect copyright.PENANAECuF4KQa0Q
A- (Smiling sadly) More than you could ever imagine. You saved my life.
495Please respect copyright.PENANAekk6tIqLIv
S- (A look of realization passes over her face as if she understood exactly what the author was saying) You-you’re-
495Please respect copyright.PENANAjb4jLaLmSd
A- Anyways, I gotta go. Okay byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
495Please respect copyright.PENANAqd9YzLG6Hx
S- (Reaching out to them as she had with the ghost of her father, but she can’t reach the author, they’ve already disappeared. Skylar is left with the truth hanging in the air where the person in control had been.)
