My favourite thing is that all of Richard's grandkids would piss him off in some way.
Like, Bentley is an agender kid that loves computers and science.
Olly is a mixed poc lesbian, dating a white passing Native Canadian ace lesbian.
And Jack K is adopted, a stem major, polyamorous, bi, trans, black, and blind.
And honestly? Fucking rad.
Also, his wife ends up with a short guy.

Olly: I want a Daddy who lives in the real World!
Octavian: To Daddy, the real World gets fainter and fainter every day...

I don't know how to describe it, but this song has Olly and Natalie vibes. Maybe not together? But, it captures their energy.

TW very slight gore (it’s EJ what do you expect?), so it’s under a cut :3
i come offering gifts :]
Tumblr media
the cousins! i could not for the life of me draw Olly’s jacket so she is wearing a striped sleeveless shirt (which i think looks awesome on her!) v proud of how i did Jack’s ‘eyes’, saying that both of them look like they have very heavy eyeliner on because it looked odd otherwise :/ 😓😓
Jack does have some fun piercings, though! xe’d probably have more but i couldn’t think of all my piercing headcanons for xem
here’s the base
Oh my god! It's them! The besties! Jack and his little cousin, his first general in his legion of mischief. Thank you so much! I love this! Ajsjskskssk such good art!

Ee Jay (EJ) headcanon
Jack had his first period age ten-or-so (10–12 range). His periods at this age were incredibly disabling and painful; so much to the point that he couldn’t move and would have to curl up in the fetal position for minutes on end.
Xyr parents were intimately aware of how much pain xyr periods brought xem, having to deal with xem being immobile due to pain, throwing up due to pain, fainting due to pain, and more.
And so, multiple hospital visits were needed. To treat the pain and find the cause, right?
Well, for one, the pain was treated very minimally, with basic OTC pain medication being prescribed (eg. paracetamol, which didn’t even touch the pain in Jack’s case), and two, it took years for any doctors to even listen to Jack’s or xyr fathers’ concerns—they ended up having to go private just to get diagnosed, let alone get treated.
The laparoscopy (keyhole surgery to find endometriosis) was, obviously, very scary for Jack, having trauma from being conscious in previous surgeries (anaesthesia awareness), but the surgeons and anaesthetist (as well as xyr fathers) assured him that it’d be okay. And it was, because they were able to find endometriosis on xyr uterus and in other places.
He was fifteen when he got diagnosed with Endometriosis.
Medical negligence, gaslighting and dismissiveness at its finest. (/s)
Yes to all of this.
Also, I imagine that Favio also had endometriosis, which he didn't realise that he had until he had bottom surgery.
"I thought it was always meant to be painful - Grandma and Nana always told me so." (Lenore probably also had it, along with Richard's mother).
Elspeth is literally the only afab in the family (aside from Olly) to not have it.
Bentley would probably have it too, and Elspeth would just be SO concerned because "holy shit how did I not have this?"

I have questions for some characters in the Windroe Trauma Dump post. I’m going to ask them generation by generation (youngest->oldest (I don’t have any for the original generation)). — Windroe Angst Anon
1) Would Jack K experience any trauma from his seizures/epilepsy? Possibly surrounding certain clothing or places?
2) Would Olly ever experience trauma from previous asthma attacks? Again, like certain clothing? And you said forever ago that Olly stresses over her health because her mother died so young, is this still true?
1) yes, Jack K cannot wear incredibly tight clothes. It's the reason xe wears baggy black jeans, and has their leather jacket too big for him.
As for places, he doesn't like standing at the top of stairs for too long.
2) Not really with the athsma, but she definitely still stresses over her health.

If you ever do post that fantastical Windroe family AU, please make them vampires. I’ve been plagued with the thought of rebellious! vampire! Octavian ripping open a blood bag with him sharp teeth
(Nah, he'd drink it like a Capri sun)
See, here's the thing: the idea I have for the fantasy au is something that is so far removed from Creepypasta/Eldritch Hall that it could be its own original project.
I actually have plans for it to become something, if I can get the motivation to so so.
...anyway, the idea is basically that their family (more specifically, Elspeth's side) has a blood blessing/curse that gives everyone born into the family magical powers.
But, these powers come at a cost:
In every generation, at least one member of the family is assured to die incredibly young.
It is a sacrifice made unintentionally in order to keep the magic flowing.
And in how I have written the Windroe Family so far, you can definitely see how this comes into play.
Anyway, with how many in Elspeth's generation died, that definitely led to an increase in the powers of her children.
What are these powers? Well, starting from the youngest, I'll go back.
Starting with the babies ❤❤❤❤
Ollie: can talk to animals; can make plants grow.
Bentley: metaokinesis (control of metals).
Christopher (Kit): night vision; shadow manipulation.
Jack K, Jane: none. :(
Then, the Parental Gen 💙❤💛💚
Favio: Crystal manipulation; precious metal manipulation; shape-shifting.
Ciero: super speed; can increase frequency of molecules in other objects as well; increased flexibility.
Patrick: none. :(
Lydia: she never got to know.
Octavian: super strength; enhanced reflexes; super healing.
Jack G: none. :(
Jill: none. :(
Zephyr: telekinesis; telepathy; super agility.
Next, the elder gen! Elspeth and her brothers (and Frankie)! 🤍💜💖❤💙
Frankie: none. :(
Elliot: emotional detection (aura sensing); hypnotic singing voice.
Richard: none! >:)
Elspeth: hypnotic singing voice; telepathy.
Steven: increased strength.
Ezekiel: can make people believe his every word (charisma?)
And then, their parents (Hartwig, Linore) and Elspeth's aunt, Casseia. 🖤💖❤
Hartwig: none! >:)
Linore: hypnotic voice; shape-shifting.
Casseia: can talk to animals.
And the start of this family magic: Linore's parents.
Elderia: magic/witchcraft.
Damon: none. :(
...anyway, yeah. That's all I've got.

Whose all in this au?
Right! So, the humanised versions of the slenderbrothers - the Windroe Brothers.
(Zephyr as Slender, Octavian Offender, Ciero is Splendor, and Favio is Trender).
Plus Laughing Jack and Jill (Jack and Jill Grossman). Jill isn't here that often, though.
There's Eyeless Jack - Jack Kingsley Windroe Grossman. The adoptive son of Jack and Zephyr.
Tim Wright.
Jay Merrick.
(As a note, Jay and Tim are dating)
Brian Thomas.
Jane Arkansaw. Ciero's adoptive daughter with his husband. (Jane the Killer)
Liu Woods (Homicidal Liu)
Jeff Woods (Jeff the Killer)
Natalie Ouellette (Clockwork).
Doby Doggers (Third Base).
Cody and Toby Rogers (X virus and Ticci Toby).
Ben Aniko (Ben Drowned).
Sally Williams (Sally Come Play with Me).
Kate Milens (Kate the Chaser).
Plus we've got Smile and Grinny and Brvr (who is now a guinea pig). Also, Seed eater (Jack's guide dog).
And a ton of other ocs that I can talk about for hours, but will only include the main ones.
So, we've got Mira. She's the psychiatrist/therapist that works with the kids.
We've got Elspeth. She's the mother of the Windroe bros.
We have Bentley. Ciero's kid.
Patrick - Ciero's husband and childhood sweetheart.
Olly. Octavian's daughter, and Natalie's girlfriend.
Bambi the Doberman. Zephyr's dog.
Scratchy. One of Smile's pups. Now Octavian's dog.
Bidoof the guinea pig. One of Ben's two.
And Ferris - Ciero's service dog. A Brittany spaniel.
And I think that that's everyone.
Of course, there will be others, but those are the main ones/the ones that are at Eldritch Hall the most.

Alright! So, a while ago, I had an Idea for the Windroes being involved in a documentary about Linore Windroe.
...this is the result of that idea, wherein they were interviewed about her.
Question 1: How Would You Describe Linore Windroe?
-
Zephyr: quite sweet, really… she'd let us lie on her bed and sing to us in Greek.
-
Octavian: Well, she was my grandma. You know, she loved us. She loved us all. She was a very loving person.
-
Ciero: she gave me the wrappers for some hard candies once. That was confusing.
-
Favio: I remember one time - she called me her "Elliot"… mom really couldn't handle that.
-
Elspeth: my mother was… beyond words. She was an actress. She was a model, a pro-immigration and anti-segregation activist, a mother… She was so many things. It's hard to find just one that defines her.
-
Question Two: Favourite Linore Windroe Film?
-
Elspeth: Oh, definitely "A Crisp Leaf in Winter". The scene with the train? Gorgeous. She used to sing the songs from it as a lullaby for Mr and my brothers.
-
Zephyr: I'd have to say… "London's Letter". The moment where her character realises what is in the envelope… Well, it changed me as a child.
-
Octavian: I didn't really watch any of Grandma's movies… Like, there were some that I saw, but none that… oh, God. I'm gonna sound really cruel, but… there were none that really held a place in my heart.  
-
Ciero: I remember seeing… She was Ophelia in a production of Hamlet once. It was recorded, and mom showed me it. It really spoke to me.
-
Favio: Oh, anything grandma was in, she turned to gold. You can't really pick when it comes to her. But, "Seamstress's Delight" was my… revival, I shall say, in my darkest time.
-
Question Three: Do You Have a Favourite Memory of Linore?
-
Elspeth: Yes, actually… I was nineteen - Zephyr was only a baby at the time, and I was staying with my mom for some support. I went for a little nap when he was asleep, and when I woke up… right in the corner of my room, my mother was sitting, holding my baby… saying "sweet little Ezzy, my baby boy."
Elspeth: you never think about how much it affected her - my brother's deaths - but it did. To her dying day. 
-
Zephyr: I had brought my son to see her for the first time - me and my husband had - and we sat him with her. She looked at him for a moment, and then… she sang. For the first time in nearly a decade, she sang.
-
Octavian: Yeah, my daughter came with me to visit her once, and grandma just began to softly style her hair. Brushing it and combing it, as if it were able to fall out with a single touch. Olly loved showing her her comics, and she recognised Batman right away. 
-
Ciero: I was about twelve, and we went to see her. I brought my dog with me - a beagle, Marty, my… first best friend - and he lay on her lap the entire time. And in that time, she was the most coherent I ever remember her being. 
-
Favio: well, I was sixteen - I had been out for about… two years. And Mom took us to visit her. Well, of course, I expected the worst. You know, deadnaming, calling me mom's name, but instead, she just looked at me and asked who the handsome gentleman was. 
-
Question Four: What Impact Did Her Death Have On You?
-
Elspeth: I was… lost without her. She was my mom, you know?
-
Zephyr: it was heartbreaking, truly. 
-
Octavian: I think I entered my worst depressive episode in years…
-
Ciero: I… it came at possibly the worst time for me. It just… added a lot of grief onto the pile. And… I broke down. 
-
Favio: …I miss my grandmother, every single day.
-
Question Five: Are There Any Last Words You Wish You Could Tell Her?
-
Zephyr: Thank you, for… everything. 
-
Octavian: I'm still hanging on, Grandma. For you and for the little girl you met.
-
Ciero: I am finally alive again. Happy. I'm now myself.
-
Favio: I made it, Grandma. I'm a designer now.
-
Elspeth: I forgive you.

“The Classical Greek titan Atlas panted less when he carried the weight of the entire world on his shoulders.” (chp. 9 main book) & “Like a Greek goddess brought to life. Not Aphrodite, as she was so overrated. Perhaps she was his own Persephone, or even Themis.” (chp 30 main book) you seem to have an interest in greek gods and goddesses! are these comparisons anything significant? are the Windroe brothers named after gods or goddesses, isn’t Zephyr the god of wind or something?
I think the whole "panting more than Atlas" thing was more of a joke. Its to show how heavy Elspeth's bags are.
As for the whole "Persephone or Themis" thing... its Octavian just being a simp.
And yes I am a Greek mythology bitch uwu.
But also, I kind of like how it ties into Olly's love of English/classics at school. Like, she learned it from her dad - and its a nod to Elspeth's parentage too.
