Some people are just born to be social; Æowyn is one of those.

She's a people-person, a social butterfly, a maven and a sometimes gossip; in a normal school, she'd be the head of her own clique. In later years at Addergoole, she probably will be the head of a crew.

This year, she's Kept, and not very well-Kept at that. Her relationship with Fafnir (such as it is) restrains just how social she can be; all of her friends also being under a collar restrains it even more.

Æowyn is a slender blonde girl with bright blue eyes who stands barely 4'9" tall. Her Change gives her scales down her chest and back, and poisonous fangs. It also gives her a temper to match the poison.

Only on one point has Fafnir given up: Æowyn doesn't dress the way he'd like her to. She wears men's button-down shirts and vests, newsboy caps and men's slacks; only at the dances does she give in enough to wear skirts.

When un-Kept, she'll probably wear tuxes to the dances.

To wyld_dandelyon's prompt.

Æowyn is a character from Addergoole: Year 9. This is set in Year 11.

The AC was broken in the halls of Addergoole, and the halls were, consequently sweltering.

Æowyn stripped off a layer, leaving her in a tank top and boxers, and tied her hair back in a ponytail. Things did not break in Addergoole, not like this, so it had to be someone's idea of a prank.

Æowyn didn't mind, not really. She wasn't cold-blooded, not like some of the snakey Changes she'd met, but neither did she mind the heat. Some of the others, however, were clearly having a harder time of it. Eluned looked flat-out miserable, and Kendrew, a Cohort after Æowyn and Eluned and with a Change and power based on ice, looked as if he was going to melt.

"Holy Hot Hell Night, Batman." She muttered it under her breath to amuse herself, and didn't expect an answer.

"Holy hot snake ladies, Robin."

"Holy... what?" she turned to follow a voice she didn't recognize yet. Almost didn't see him, as he'd managed to blend himself into a niche in the wall so well he was almost invisible.

"Holy hot snake ladies. Is Hell Night the day when they turn up the heat to see if we still sweat?"

Æowyn found a smile growing. He was cute, in a blonde-and-scruffy sort of way, if you could look around the edges of his apparent camouflage power. "In a manner of speaking. Do you?"

He wiped a hand over his brow. "Seems like it. You, too?"

"Despite the scales, yeah." She looked at him, dripping in a corner. She could feel her fangs against her lips. "Something spook you?"

"Don't tell anyone?"

"Cross my heart." She made the gesture across the center of her chest, and felt the settling-in of a promise.

"I thought I heard horses galloping. When it turned out to be a centuar.... I freaked out."

"Ah." She smiled. "So you do sweat."

"I just said... oh. Oh, it's that sort of day."

"Yeah." Æowyn remembered her first Hell Night, and the way another blonde-and-scruffy boy had terrified her. "It's that sort of day. Tell you what. 'Come with me if you want to live.'" She held out her hand.

"Terminator. The heat really is on, isn't it?" He studied her hand thoughtfully.

"I know a way to get out of the kitchen." She kept her hand held out, not entirely certain what she was going to do.

"I'll take it." He slapped his hand into hers and squeezed. She squeezed back, and led him out of the heat.

52 19 Days To 52 Weeks

For the 52 days leading up to the 52 weeks of Addergoole: Year 9, I will be posting something Addergoole-related every day.

Today I present Jovanna and Aeowyn, best known so far as Ahouva's friends.

Jovanna is a tall, slender girl with a dancer's body, tight-muscled and lean, with hardly any chest to speak of; she camouflages this with ruffled shirts. She likes ruffles all around, tiered skirts and flounced hems and sleeves.

Her skin is deep brown, her hair long, curly, and prone to frizzing. Her eyes are silver-grey, and her makeup is well-done but often a bit heavy-handed. She's a follower, socially, quiet unless spoken to and often a wall-flower.

Aeowyn is a leader to Jovanna's follower, outgoing and sharp-tongued. Short, tiny, and blonde (Addergoole has a surplus of tiny blondes!) Her hair is shoulder-length and smooth platinum blonde; she has bright blue eyes and pale skin. She and Jovanna commiserate over their lack of noticeable chests.

She likes whatever's in fashion for clothes, but prefers things that are boyish - pants rather than skirts, button-down shirts. Hats. Aeowyn loves hats.

Neither have innate powers determined yet. Jovanna's Change is pika-related; Aeowyn's is snake-related

They appear in the following stories:

And Today, You can ask them any question you want!
