It started as a writing prompt that was supposed to inspire a 5,000 word university assignment … now I’m publishing it in October 🥳

Rini & Butler is very much an exploration and expression of myself on the page.

A writing prompt started the concept of Rini & Butler but the filling is inspired greatly by my experiences as a child, growing up in a variety of lower/working class, disjointed and abusive environments. Found family has become incredibly important to me as someone standing on a cross-road of multiple minority roads and only three blood family members have been there for me throughout my entire life, none of them being the people who were supposed to take care of me.

And so the writing prompt was the flame to the firework that is now my two most adorable OCs! 🥹 It is incredible how much one can learn about themselves and grow by just seeing parts of themselves in a different perspective. So I truly hope many people come to love Rini and Butler as well! And have mercy on my writing 🙇

Releases 31st October!

Aquila is an Omega-5. A new model service-droid that is designed for flawless assistance in one’s day-to-day. Its core law forbids it to harm, or allow harm to come to, humans.

Rini is a kid on the street who trusts and listens to no one. Her primary instinct is to eat, run, fight and sleep.

When the pair meet eyes on a rainy night, Aquila’s core law engages in a way that no one could expect, resulting in a tumultuous relationship that brings unease to the world around them.
