Day 12: Silent Orchids by Morgan Wylie

Character Interview:

Hello! Thank you so much for having me today!! I wanted to share some things that you may find interesting about my main character Kaeleigh from The Age of Alandria series.
Ahem, throat clearing*

Chel: Excuse me, Morgan, but I think if anyone is going to talk about Kaeleigh it should be me! 😉 *Chel bounces behind me.

Me: Well, hi Chel, I didn’t know you would be here, but I should’ve known better. Where’s Finn?

*Chel nods to the back of the room*

*Finn stands at the back of the room, arms crossed, and scowling*

Chel: Oh Finn, relax. I’m not going to share anything Kaeleigh wouldn’t want people to know.
*Finn Slinks over from where he was skulking in the corner with a cheesy grin*

Finn: I know, that’s why Chel and I will take it from here.

Me: Okay, well, everyone let me introduce you to Kaeleigh’s two best friends… Finn and Chel.

Chel: I’m so excited! Thank you for having us here today.

Finn: Um, Chel… they didn’t. We hijacked this post.

Chel: Technicalities Finn *waves hand flippantly* Plus who knows Kaeleigh better than her BEST friend?

Finn: (s)

Chel: Huh?

Finn: friends. You said friend. I added the ‘s’.

Chel: Hmm. Well, you better hope that Morgan doesn’t do something drastic to you in book 2.

Finn: *glares*

Chel: Just sayin’. Ok let’s get this show on the road! I’ll go first…

Finn: Of course you will *mumbles under his breath*

Chel: *glares back* those were my dagger eyes

Finn: Oh is that what that was? I thought maybe you just had something in both your eyes

Me: Ok you two, this is suppose to be about Kaeleigh. These people have things to do, get on with it!

Chel: First off, you should know that Kaeleigh is the best friend a girl *ahem* or guy (eye roll to Finn) could have. She is loyal and caring, she always thinks of us before herself.

Finn: I’m not sure that isn’t something they couldn’t figure out.

Chel: Fine. You go.

Finn: *sighs* I don’t like this. I don’t think she would appreciate us talking about her.

Chel: Oh! I got one… Kaeleigh is a restless sleeper. She kicks!

Finn: *smirks* And she talks in her sleep.

Chel: See this is fun.

Finn: *frowns*

Chel: Hey I’m doing all the work here. Your turn.

Finn: Kaeleigh calls me if she hasn’t heard from me after a couple days, just to make sure I’m not lying dead, alone, on the floor in my apartment.

Chel: Oookay… that was morbid, Finn. Back to me. Remember last winter when I found an injured stray cat? I tried to take care of it, but it got real bad. Kaeleigh helped me take it to the vet. *pause and looks down, hands wringing* That’s why she got fired from that secretary job.

Finn: *growls* Chel, you know she’s allergic to cats. You should have called me.

Chel: I know, but you would have just told me not to bother. Did you even hear me though, I’m the reason she lost her job.

Finn: *shrugs* It obviously didn’t bother her that much—she got another one. It’s just a job to her. You are her family and that means something.

Chel: *takes deep breath* You’re right Finn, thanks. You know, you’re all right when you want to be. I think Kaeleigh is the only person who can make you smile, but you know that, don’t you?

Finn *stands up non-chalantly* Hey Morgan, I think we are finished here, if you need to say anything.

Me: Thanks Finn for remembering that I was even here. Chel, anything else you want to add?

Chel: No, I’m good. Thank you for letting us hijack your post. It was fun! *pokes Finn*

Ok, well, I hope you were able to learn a little something about my main character and maybe even a little about the dynamic of her posse. Thank you for indulging my characters today!
