Timeline/Event Ideas:
Winter Mourning (2021): I will be doing two prompts for Ortus' Winter Mourning, one light and one dealing with heavy themes of child death, child abuse, grief, and trauma. Both will feature the baby Gideon Nav, his canonmate and fellow Ninth House alumnus, and take place in their House creche.
‣ Memory one will be of Ortus and his teenage friends playing with and caring for baby Gideon, and will be light-hearted and pleasant.
‣ Memory two will be of Ortus and Gideon alone, with a walk on appearance from Ortus' father, Mortus, and will be heavily content warned for spoilers and canon typical heavy themes. I am leaving this vague here because it is a prompt that I would like to discuss with anyone interested one on one before you jump in, for the sake of everyone being comfortable and well-warned.

Run, Rabbit, Run (2021): Ortus is not in a position to chase anyone, knowing approximately negative amounts about traps or hunting, so this could potentially lead to Home Alone style shenanigans wherein Ortus plays the role of a Wet Bandit being pratfalled to oblivion.

Fight or Flight: The above especially so when Ortus' instincts will be to choose 'flight' from any conflict, fretting over how others feel about him. Given that cowardice comes naturally to him, it will take a while for Ortus to catch on that there's anything amiss - but it also may mean he's better at managing the feelings already.

Now You See Me: I think this calls for making up whatever kind of spooky deep winter stories little necromancer children tell to each other. The Tale of The Guy Who Wasn't A Ghost When He Died, The Skeleton That Just Sat There Instead of Walking Around, The Unhaunted House, and other tales of this nature.
