@ace--of--swords I had to put all of three of the Abara siblings together to show off for one post.
Their story still needs to be told along with my ideas for certain routes.
For details:
1. Claudia's reception among the Vesuvians as she does her daily shopping.
2. Bhekithemba reluctantly ascends the throne with his father, Themba, and his royal advisor, Mcebisi looking on sadly.
3. Mayihlome discovers an important clue to locate their family.

🎁
A present from each of the Abara siblings.
Claudia: A clay vase and aromatherapy pot with lavender oil
Bhekithemba: A beautiful sketch of Rowan taking a nap. No creepy shit, he just loves authentic poses.
Mayihlome and Lulu: A beautiful beaded and carved elephant tusk. May talked to a herd of elephants if she could take a tusk in exchange for something they need.
Rowan audibly gasped when they saw each of the gifts.
"Oh my god! You guys! You shouldn't have!" Each of the siblings were gifted in turn with a tight hug. "These are so cool! Thank you so, so much!"
All three gifts were displayed in pride of place in Rowan's apartment as soon as possible. Bhekithemba's art was framed and hung on their bedroom wall alongside all the drawings Asra had made them. Claudia's vase was filled with flowers from the garden and placed on the kitchen table. The aromatherapy pot was placed and lit in the living area, filling the whole apartment with the scent of lavender. They cleared a space on one of their shelves to display Mayihlome and Lulu's tusk where they could easily see it.
"I don't know how I'll be able to top these for all your birthdays... but I'm certainly gonna try!"

Apprenticember Day 7
Bhekithemba
In Muriel's route he wears his kings garb and some casual clothes during his stay with Nadia to discuss how the two countries will work together moving forward.
Muriel's route main outfit:
Tumblr media
For Nadia's route, his outfits are more toned down but still colorful and reflect his Matabele heritage.
Claudia, Mayihlome, and Bibi taught him as much as they could about their history as a family without him getting too overwhelmed. His apparel with Nadia changes once he stays at the palace to help solve the mystery of Lucio's death and his romance with her.
Generally, he tends to like clothes that aren't too tighf or loose and he prefers a clean but colorful style to his outfits.
Some of his clothes in Nadia's route.

The is out of nowhere because I just finished reading "Coconut Tart" (a good introductory for Ozy!) and it made me think of what the Abara siblings would think of him!
Claudia: She will be reserved with him at first but, I think she would like him. She would get annoyed with his Know-it-all tendencies though and she would enjoy his stories about his adventures, just don't make it feel like he's talking at her.
Bhekithemba: "My friend, bring it down to a six or seven and you'll be fine." Big brother figure to him and someone he WILL pull little brother-type pranks on. Come to think of it, there's a balloon he could fill with glitter for Ozy.
Mayihlome: She will ask him if she can play with his hair after some time and she gets comfortable with him. Loves his tales of adventures and she becomes more motivated to make her own journeys.
Sometimes before I sit down to respond to a fic prompt, I ask myself: uhh how can I make this Caribbean??? That's pretty much what happened during the whole Arcana Echoes event. I'm really glad you enjoyed Ozy's debut!
Claudia and Kipling are pretty similar when it comes to Ozy, especially with how their relationship started out! Ozy is a lot more aware of how he comes off these days, though he can still slip back into his old ways when he gets really passionate about a subject. If he was meeting Claudia for the first time, I think he would try to make her feel comfortable enough to have conversations and ask whatever questions she had. Another trait of Ozy that tends to get overlooked is his own hunger for knowledge. He bonds with people by learning from them, not simply showing off everything he knows. So he’d want to ask Claudia questions and listen to her talk about the things that she’s passionate about!
I know I joke in the tags but Ozy really doesn’t have any chill. 😆
I suggest that Bhekithemba seek Ozy out after he’s completed a meditation session or caught up on one of his research projects at the library. These activities significantly help dial down his own excitement. But yes, Ozy is here for the brother bonding! I also have a feeling that Abaco would volunteer his services to ensure any pranks are executed successfully. In fact, here comes Abaco now. He says: Give me the balloon. I will deliver it over Ozy’s head as directed.
Ozy welcomes Mayihlome to have a closer look at his locs. If she ever offered to help him wash or retwist them, he would melt go very soft. Plus I have a feeling May’s calmer nature would really appeal to Ozy as he is typically drawn to warm, steady energies. If he learns about her desire to travel, he’d probably offer his hand and want to take her on a walk through the Doors. They could easily cross vast distances that way and see many places in the span of a few hours.

Ash's OC List Summary Part 1: The Arcana
Claudia-Nomusa Abara: The eldest daughter of a father (Themba) who's a decorated and still prominent army general and a mother (Noxolo) who's widely known as a magical prodigy since she was a child. She doesn't have a familiar and is seen as the failed child of her siblings among her neighbors. Has a selfishness problem that stems from proving herself as capable and some competitiveness with her younger brother.
Bhekithemba: The only boy and middle child of his siblings. He's seen as a fun-loving and accomplished young man among his people. Bhekit is blessed with his father's looks (with a familiar born from Themba's companion) and strength along with his mother's magical abilities. He reluctantly inherits a royal throne and is tasked with mending a broken country, crown, and family while raising a young daughter.
Mayihlome: The weird youngest sibling that can talk to animals and has a hyena familiar (LuLu) that grew larger than its usual species. They saw some of the worst effects of the Red Plague on their home, family, and life; the scars are still deep. She plans to find her eldest sister and maternal aunt by any means, even if it means deceit to the ones closest to her.
Anele: A renowned general picking up Themba's mantel after his partially forced retirement due to the plague. She's known for hir ferocity, grace, and strategies that have served Bhekithemba well as one of his most loyal advisers in the royal court. But a softer romantic side sits underneath when you see hir observe the birds and flowers.

Apprenticember Day 2
Part 2
Bhekithemba's LI
Nadia, the Countess and the Shopkeeper
For Nadia's route, Bhekithemba becomes the main apprentice instead of his older sister, Claudia, who's still in a relationship with Asra and Muriel.
He first saw Nadia from a distance when she was speaking to a crowd of Vesuvians on his first pilgrimage from Matabele when he was sixteen. They have an actual meeting when Claudia and Bhekithemba are requested by Lucio to come to the palace when he was twenty-one.
In the short time between helping fight Vesuvia's plague and making sure his sister was ok, he sought Nadia out for genuine friendship by talking about their home countries, food, books, music, and philosophies. There were even some flirtations between the two and a small kiss shared.
After Bhekithemba's revival and Nadia's three year long coma, they reconnect again like a bookmark left on the previous chapter.
