@ILOVETHEGAY101 Sorry I'm a bit late, but maybe you could try to write something from Thomas' perspective (maybe Thomas meets Joan and Talyn while they're traveling, and either he asks them to find his brother or starts traveling with them- there's plenty of potential for both fluff and misunderstanding based angst, plus maybe a dive into explaining more of Virgil's history!). Just in general, I find that perspective changes can get the creativity going when there's a bit of a logjam.
