As you master your craft in "On The Hearth", you'll trawl through decades of magical research in your mentor's grimoire. But great minds don't always think alike. The petty squabbles of previous contributors will leave you with with plenty of questions to ponder. #indieGameDev #deductionGames

This was probably a horrible plan.

It really was.

We should have contacted someone.

Yet we didn't, and now with Abella standing next to me.

Which was normal, but what wasn't that we were standing at the front door of my family's home.

"What are we doing?" I mumbled.

"We are here to talk", Abella gently retold me.

It was something we had discussed for ages. We decided against calling Georgie; it was better for us to just go see if we could talk. With the little information Georgie had given us, the only one who still lived with my parents was Georgie, so it'd just be Mum, Dad, and Georgie.

The hope being that maybe talking to Mum and Dad alone might be better. To know that I had hurt Mum so much from my disappearance. I just wanted to talk to her, to explain why. Maybe I'd still be told to leave, but at least Mum could have proper closure.

"We should knock if we are doing this, or we can go do something else," Abella said.

"We are doing this," I say, taking a deep breath before gently knocking on the door.

I'm so excited to release part 7.

Welp, I think it won't be as weird now.

So I knock on the door.

And we wait.

And we-

"Babe. Knock on the door more than once."

Oh.

So I knock a few more times.

"I just didn't want to be rude!" I defend myself as Abella giggles.

"Being rude is many, many, many more knocks than just one", she says, sticking out her tongue, and thankfully, she pulls her tongue back in just before the door opens.

Knock. Knock.

"Georgie?" I knocked again.

She'd been in the bathroom for a while, and I was really confused. We had planned to head out 5 minutes ago, but she hadn't moved from the bathroom. We'd been taken advantage of, Mum and Dad finally letting the two of us out of the house alone. Since I'm 13 and she's 12, we could go out as long as we were together or with one of our siblings.

Knock. Knock.

"Georgie, are you in there?" I called out once again.

"Mhmmm, Alex?" she called, and I perked up instantly, though she sounded not well.

"Yeah, Georgie? Hurry, we gottaaa goooo. I wanna make it in time for the trailers!"

"Um, Alex... listen, um, can you um get Mum for me please." She pleaded with me. It was starting to worry me. Why did she need Mum? We needed to go, but if she needs Mum, I'll get her.

"Okay, I'll get her", I say as I head down the corridor.

I really hope whatever is happening can get fixed. There's no way she could fall into the toilet? She is a little small... maybe that's it. It would make sense that she wouldn't want to show me. I wouldn't laugh at her, though! She's my best friend, I wouldn't do that.

Wandering into the living room, thankfully Mum is just on the couch watching this house show thing.

"Mum?"

"Yes, Bud? Aren't you and Georgie going out to the movies?" she asks, looking at me.

"We are, but um, Georgie needs you", I say.

"Oh? Where is she, Bud?"

"In the bathroom next to our room", I say.

"Oh, okay," she pauses her show, "let's go check on her."

YappyTales @yappytales.bsky.social · 13/02/2026

With MIMNL finished, I've been working on a new story. Currently with Chapter 1 done, and part 2 being written. It isn't ready to upload but here is a little teaser of the first section.

ing.

I can't believe the Stereo had to be on the fritz today.

Ring. Ring.

The fuzzy hum wasn't enough to block out the noise from my Nokia.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

I really didn't need to know it was ringing. It had been going on for so long. This wasn't even the first call. I couldn't- wouldn't answer it, but it stung so much.

Ring. Ring. Ring. Ring.

I just had to keep driving and pray that the tears wouldn't hinder me. Though here comes the hard part.

"This is Alex Turner. I am unable to take your call at the moment. Please either send a text or leave a voice message. Beeeeeep." The phone stopped making sound, and I thought I wouldn't have to bear through it, but-

"Alex? This is serious. Pick up the phone and call me back. I just got back, Georgie is freaking out, and I saw the state of your room. Please just pick up and reassure me that what I'm thinking is happening isn't happening." Mum stops talking, and I'm barely holding it together. It's not her first call. Mum called soon after I started driving cause Georgie saw me. She thought, in that call, that Georgie was just overexaggerating, but now she was freaking out.

"Alex... listen, I love you... Whatever is happening, call us back, please." The line went dead. It hurt so much. Each call was another sibling worrying and saying they loved me and cared about me, but that's why I needed to leave.

I needed to get away, cause in truth they wouldn't love me.

They wouldn't like that I actually hated my name.

I hated being the youngest brother.

That the personality I built was all a facade to fake it through school.

"Summer!" Mum called out from downstairs. I should have been down a minute ago, but this mirror kept distracting me. Just looking in awe at who I had become.

"Summer, we need to get going now!" Mum yelled.

"Coming, Mum!" I said, turning away from my mirror and scooping up my bag, and heading over to my textbooks. I had gotten all the news ones for High school, and honestly, that was an even greater relief than the uniform. Finally getting a new Biology textbook helped me move past that. That day, that book, that prison sentence. It had all brought a crushing feeling of hopelessness.

Now there was hope. I still had that prison sentence weighing on my head, but hopefully, soon I could get on HRT.

"Summer! Hurry!" Mum yelled again.

"Sorry Mum, I'm packing my bag!" I called back.

Feeling much better and finished up a rewrite of part 22. I did have a slight draft pre getting sick but it was so hard to get back into it, so I just rewrote the whole thing. I do warn, that it might be slightly shorter then usual, so apologies for the wait then a short chapter.

Something that I have been contemplating for YappyTales is setting up a Patreon once MimNL is done. On release I’ll have the first chapter of the sequel there, and it will be the place for new stuff to go before going to Scribblehub. Releases would still come to Scribblehub but on a slight delay.

No upload this week. It took to long to get this chapter right. The aftermath of the appointment bring the story pretty close to where I’ll be finishing Maybe in My Next Life. Yes Summer’s journey at school will be told, but in a separate book that will come out later.

With everything that happened this chapter, this might of went unnoticed but I adored the banter between Amber, Pete and Summer. The trio is fun to write. #writer #author #transfic #indieauthor #comingofage

“Of course not, you are the little sister after all. Plus, your height isn’t helping shortstack,” Amber said, smirking.

“I’m not that short,” I said, gently pushing you.

“Oh, please, Summer, did you see how you looked when you were next to Rhea. She’s tall, and gosh, you look tiny compared to her.”

“What, no, I don’t!”

“Yes, you are” Amber says before running to the car.

“Hey!” I say running after her, although by the time we’ve both gotten into the car, we are both a giggling mess.

“I’m sooooooo going to get Mum to let me sit in the front on the way back,” I say as we both try to calm down.

“No, you can’t make me sit with Pete.” Amber is still giggling just as much as I am.

“I can and I shall. Unless you say I’m not short.”

“You're not as short as Maxxy,” she says, and the time it takes me to remember that she’s referring to Penny’s little sister, who’s not even in middle school, Amber is giggling all over you.

“That’s it, I’m so taking the front seat!” I say as I fall into a giggling fit again.

We don’t stop until a door opens and we hear Pete say, “God so loud.”

“Shut up, ass,” Amber says, trying to stifle her giggles.

“Please don’t become as annoying as her,” Pete says, looking at me. Though it’s noticeable that he avoided saying a name.

“Shut it, I am not annoying. And Short Summer adores me; she’d love to be like me.” Amber grins as I slap her shoulder at the comment.

“Ugh, girls,” he exclaims, annoyed at the two of us, as Mum gets in as well.

"I don't tell you this to make you worry, but I want you to see how far she has already come. She's so different now Pete. Not just with how she dresses and presents herself. She truly has become that Ray of Sunshine, that I always knew she was. She has broken free of how she'd been and become this brave young girl who is quite surprisingly determined. The sweet but scared, closed off young boy I had thought I had, who was happy to go with whatever others wanted. It's quite the contrast."

"I've seen it" he sighs, "even when Ray and Amber met my friends. Ray was completely different to the younger brother I had known for so long."

"Isn't that nice?" I push, "She's coming into her own, and it's because she feels comfortable and right."

"It... I can't say yes Mum." He stops looking over at me. "No matter how good it is, if it is going to get him... hurt then can I really say this is better. What happens when Ray faces something, will he crumble even further then that day? Will he even get the chance? She could be killed Mum."

"Okay I've had enough! We are doing something today" Amber declared as she plops down onto the couch next to me.

"We have two days of no life threatening event occurring and you get bored" I can't help but giggle. It's silly, and honestly I'm super down for it, but also I've enjoyed just laying about, both days, but maybe that's just cause I'm so used to not doing much. Though I highly doubt anyone would blame me, definitely at least Mum she highly recommended I just rest.

I really couldn’t wait to get home and fall asleep, though I really needed to get something to eat. After everything that happened with Dad, and now I had to go through so much with Dr Patterson, or Carol as she said I could call her. Honestly it had been terrifying at the start.

She asked so many different questions about how I had felt. She did compliment me on my outfit, but then after that she started asking a bunch of different things. How did it make me feel? How did I feel when I wore boy clothes? After those questions, she started asking about my week.

Talking about the week I’d realized how much I’d went through since my last appointment. I've gone out to the mall, got confronted by someone, told my sister, came to terms with everything, and then had to deal with everything at Dad's. It was a lot, and as Carol noted down things, I worried it looked bad.

Hope everyone loved Part 11 today! I’ve been working on Part 12. Here’s a little sneak leak! #writer #author #transfic #indieauthor #comingofage

I wish I could just leave her sleeping. My own daughter had been so distraught for so long. Sh'd cried her heart out and I tried my best to console her, and yet she still had seemed so broken. Thankfully as we drove she just settled into her seat and fell asleep. She'd become so peaceful, and I was so thankful to watch her seem at peace.

I had turned the radio off and just drove, trying my best to not disturb her. Now that I was parked up on the driveway, I needed to disturb her. It seemed to horrible to do, she'd wake up and have to deal with the ordeal I sent her to. I'd thrown her to her father and this was the result. I shouldn't of sent her, but what could I have done.

I needed to focus. I can't do this, Ray needs me. I couldn't not send her to her father. I had tasks to do, so that I could help her. All thanks to Daisy, we had a plan now. I was going to do my best for my children.
