These letters are the best interlude! I'm trying to guess who is next but we're so close to Mitch's freedom - is it Nimue? I feel here is the BIG ONE at this point

Will his SON write one?!!

By the way, about your comment - technically, Mac and his sisters were hybrids, but I chose for them to have natural skin tones as I like the idea of the aliens being hidden amongst humans. Mac had to be able to move freely for his detective plots, and I didn't want it to become a copy of Michael Lee Harker's story. But, that's just my canon - personally, I love how you play the Munches too.

I also argue that all of the Earth-born aliens are hybrids since they have human fathers. And since fellas have the babies in the first place, I figured that must just be the Sixamian way of things.

Now to decide whether or not Mitch should confront Clyde. He IS a rich millionaire, and Mitch has dealt with those before...

Updated 18/10/17 - the first of a two-parter!

Our Gen 8 heir celebrates his fifteenth birthday... but will he get the one thing he really wants?
Plus, will a heartbreaking confession lead the reformed Mitch back into criminal acts?

This is one of my favorite legacies to read at the moment. I love it so much; how you have manged to develop such characters and not to tell the amazing story too!! I'm all caught up and like... :jawdrop:
Spoiler:
I'm so worried about Mitch... I mean he just got out to be with his family again, after such long time.... and then he decided to let old wounds take control and risk it all?!! NOOO!!!!! I'm so worried he'll do the wrong thing, because I would hate to see everything fall apart for them now... Can please daddy Marcel come and save the day or something? Because if that happens... things will never be the same and I would hate for Clyde and Moe and everyone else to suffer for the past. I mean, I get it that he's pissed... but he's not thinking about the possibility of him going back behind bars again!! AND NEVER GET OUT!!! *Is way to emotional invested in this*
I love this. I can't wait to see what happens next. I love how you involve so many things into the plot and just... :cryingeyes: I have never felt so many emotions just by reading as I did when reading this, from start to the latest update. And I'm rambling again. So some last words;

Thank you for writing this amazing legacy. It's truly fantastical and I can't wait to see how it all pans out in the end. Amazing. :thup:

Updated 22/10/17.

The conclusion to the last Letter to Mitch!

Now out of prison, Mitch swears he'll have his revenge on Clyde. But when the moment of truth is upon him, will he be willing to risk losing everything he's just got back?

Letters to Mitch: Miskin Family - Parties & Payback Pt. 2

Feedback can be highly influential on me, with insightful comments from several readers, notably @Livvielove and @CHBlossomProduction, pulling my heartstrings in many different directions. In the end, to avoid losing the plot altogether (and yes, I mean that both metaphorically and literally!), I reached my final decision through the result of a coin flip. So read on, and see what fate has decided for my dear little legacy family!

Updated Halloween 2017!

Generation Eight commences!

After years of servitude, Jonathan Renfield, the underappreciated butler to the Mortan-Murdacs, takes matters into his own hands - with devastating consequences for Audric, Maven, Marcel, and live-in vampiric student Alex.

Meanwhile, after Mo recieves news from Loki at the café about the newest additions to the Lee Harker family, and reluctantly realising his daughter is on the verge of adulthood, Mitch ponders the fact that Marlon has yet to produce an heir...

I fell behind! But I kind of liked having lots of Miskin updates waiting for me
Spoiler:
I AM HERE FOR THE VAMPIRE STORY!! This is like thrilling block buster plot and I'm actually excited to see such a slimey villain wanting to conquer the world. I also love Libby, I'm glad we have a Miskin sibling getting in on the main plot line.

I honestly don't know what to expect next and I'm excited. I'm also as nervous as Mitch when I think about Marlon and getting on with the legacy babies, but he has to do what he has to do first!

Updated 11/11/17!

As our three heroes plan their attack on Renfield, Alex asks Libby to introduce him to a few aspects of modern life, and later, shares a thing or two from way back when.

Meanwhile, Marcel's messages may not have gone undetected...

Spoiler:
Oh my god I only just got New-Fangled ways.What is wrong with me, I thought I was adept in the pun arts!

For some reason my comment didn't send through on the blog (mobile blogging, what can you do?!) But I was so worried about Marlon until I read Livvie's comments and I was like yes - I'm 95% sure I smell a trap!

Poor Alex, unable to beat Reinfield. I feel a montage coming on! Straight to the boss fight! I like it! There are so many people in that situation I honestly can't tell who is going to do what.

My predictions, which I think might still happen, is that Reinfield will get to Liberty and turn her still - but that means she can live happily with Alex FOREVER (bonus, she can live with Marcel?) and maybe she can even bring Reinfield down!? Though I feel now, Marcel is about to kick some vampire butt

I said I was sorry! [emoji24]

At least now he can be in Heaven again with his family... which is a point I believe you raised in an original comment? [emoji6]

Also, there's another reason. I wasn't sure if Mitch and Marlon had rightfully inherited under Legacy rules, as Marcel was technically still alive. I reluctantly decided to err on the side of caution.

Funnily enough, I was chatting with my boyfriend about the plot, and his guess was the same as yours. It would have been an awesome plotline, but it mirrors the original Marcel one a fair bit. I have a different ending in mind for our vampire friends...

Updated 22/11/17.

Vampires and mortals work together in an attempt to "cure" Cassandra. Can a solution be found? And is it only the model's destiny that would be changed by such a discovery?
