888 | collection of short stories

a collection of short stories starring my original characters.

since the story varies i'll just list some of my characters.

lysander- stupid idiot who's too insane to be around. but he is Soft occasionally and often finds himself in complete admiration for his best friend, fieo.

fieo- (my favourite) floaty and decentralised with a passion for cows, his dogs and his father- françios. he really, really loves lysander.

mal- bold and hot headed, she ain't taking anyone's shit. she is a year older than fieo and loves her girlfriend, cats and dreams of living in a big city. she goes to uni to study social work and child therapy.

quis- a dog, dare i say... the best dog... he's a labrador crossed with pitbull and some other breeds. he likes tennis balls, sticks and swimming and often chases chickens. he's just a fun loving, goofy creature.

françios- Wise Old Man. fieo and mal's father, friend of all. he's a gay mexican man who immigrated to britian forty years ago. he was widowed decades ago and remembers his partner fondly. he restores antiques (paintings, books, furniture, art pieces) for a living and has a large collection of secondhand books. he adopted fieo and mal because he felt like he was able to give children a good home. he's a socialist or alt-leftist who encourages the use of art and artistic thinking within modern society.

lana- mal's girlfriend, overly empathetic, sweet and tender with a thick northern-english accent and a love for flowers, baking and horses. she's basically a cottagecore lesbian who is doing a uni degree for psychology.

esper- an asian-british boy who speaks vietnamese at home and often complains about his younger siblings. he lives on a hobby-farm with his parents and grandparents where they raise sheep. although his parents don't put much pressure for him to preform outstandingly academically he studies hard and achieves results in order to solidify his escape from rural england. he is dry, sarcastic but also charismatic.
