More Crane Tidbits!

Hello readers! Here I am with some juicy behind the scenes Crane facts! No dialogue this time, but I do have some interesting facts that--while not necessarily important to the plot--are kind of fun to know! I also will be talking a little about some background people.

1. Panic's wedding dress is actually green, because she didn't feel right wearing white, and as a ginger she looks like a sheet wearing white.

2. At the beginning of the story, Crisis's (heh heh. Say Crisis's out loud. You will sound like a snake.) job is that of an archaeologist--well, an archaeologist's assistant.

3. As of right now, Crane's father is named Cadfael and her mother is named Myrrha.

4. Pilot plays guitar. Frequently. And writes cheesy love songs just to annoy Panic.

5. Panic and Pilot have five children--this isn't a spoiler because this actually never even makes it into the story. And their wedding might be cut from it too. I don't know--that are a bizarre mix of raccoon-foxes. They have two girls and three boys. The youngest girl is named Melody, and the oldest girl is named Ginger--and not because of her red hair. I don't know what to name the boys yet.

6. While we are on the topic of Panic and Pilot's future together (Guess who my favorite couple is? XD) Panic actually miscarries their first child. :(

7. On a happier note, Mannequin and Pythagoras are the only unholies married...and they are married to each other. (Panic and Pilot don't count because that doesn't happen until after everything else, FYI)

8. Neither Panic nor Pilot wear shoes. Except in the snow--that's your extra tidbit: there will be snow at some point... and it's a pretty major point!

9. Panic's favorite food is Sausage. And I know that most of these are about Panic and Pilot... that's because background information about Crisis is actually a big part of the story... and I freaking love Panic and Pilot. There's also a pretty big thing about Pilot that I'm dying to tell you guys but can't because it's kind of a major spoiler.

10.  Pilot is the Queen of England. There, I spoiled it (Just kidding, I'm not serious!!!) Some point in the story, Crane rides a pony named Rosie. So there.


Now, time to highlight my favorite background character who is not an unholy (since Mannequin is probably my favorite background/semi main very evil unholy) Drum roll please.....
Jewel!

Jewel is a human contortionist/acrobat that travels with the same troupe as Panic. She's a major chatterbox, and is Panic's best friend, even though they are about as different as night and day; Panic has long loosely braided hair, Jewel has a short bob. Panic isn't really interested in a relationship, Jewel is very boy-crazy. Panic likes to keep things plain and simple, Jewel is over the top extravagant--Her name may or may not actually be Jewel (no one knows for sure) but she certainly looks like one. Jewel wears as much jewelry as possible, and jingles when she walks. Jewel doesn't play too big a part in the story, asides from being there and watching Panic's stuff when she goes on long adventures with, in Jewel's own words, "The two hottest guys in all the world." (Crisis and Pilot)

Any way, Have a marvelous day! I might be posting an expose on Mannequin sometime soon, just because she's wonderfully wicked--think Lady Macbeth and Zira from Lion King II--and adorable to boot!

Love and Sparkles!
