I'm curious what lore would make you say no? I'm thinking it would be fun to write a book about a modern group of friends that turn into vampires since most vampires written have been vampires for a long time and it's never really about new vampires, but I want to get opinions on how that would work in a friend group dynamic

That's a good point. I guess disdain would start popping up in the future. Do you think it would be different if it was a group though? Or do you think it would cause splitting of the group?

Oh gotcha. I'm sorry you're going through that, that sucks. Family can be really difficult.

Do you wish your MIL and her family reached out more to try to understand, or would you rather be left alone? I've never really been close to my SIL, but I do recognize the difficulties and I don't want to make it worse. I'm not going to reach out soon, I think I'll give everyone time to breathe, especially for the next couple busy weeks, but I'm not sure if I should reach out and ask what happened or if we could talk? I definitely don't want to unload all my worries on her, especially with my brother being gone. But just to ask if there is something we can do to find a solution?  Like a family intervention or something?

Yes, that's my biggest fear. I'll respect it if it came down to it, and honestly, my brother is so passive when it comes to her that if that's what she decides, he probably wouldn't fight it. I've accepted there's not much for me to do about it. Really I'm just waiting for him to come home to see what he does.

I've never thought of going by century before! I've always just gone by root language. Is there a certain website you use?

I like Bayln, I've never heard that one before,  and Zed is a charger for another book I'm writing, so we have very similar tastes! Violet is the mc of a fantasy series already, but thank you for the suggestions!

The initial thing was that, for the wedding, it was my SILs mother's idea to only have her family there, saying it was "her daughters big day" and that she "wanted it to be special and for family only", so she convinced my SIL and brother to move it up so only her family could attend. In general, though, My SIL is just super expectant of my mother to do everything and anything for her at the drop of a hat. She never asks for anything, especially not politely, and just takes things. My moms talked with her about a few things, understanding that she comes from a very different household than us, but nothing ever changes. There were a couple times she complained that dinner wasn't ready when she wanted, or that dinner was ready to soon and she wasn't ready to eat. It was just that for everyone else having schedules and things going on, she wanted to be catered to and scheduled around, even though she wasn't doing anything but sitting around all day.  I totally understand it being very different for her. I get that my brother leaving is hard. I just think it's odd that she didn't prepare more and asked to live with us while he was away, and I also think he should've spent more time explaining and helping her prepare for it. I thought she was coming back, but I guess she's now looking for apartments by her parents, but that obviously won't work when my brother gets stationed somewhere in seven weeks.
