The Place:
Frampton-on-Severn is the riverside village where Cass` house is. Google Maps has it street level-able, but it is pretty much a country village with the longest village green in England. There are 3 duck ponds on it, and a public house at either end.
Cass lives in an upper middle-class 2 1/2 story brickfaced house with white/pink hydrangeas out front. Several bedrooms, a less than 10 year-old bathroom with running water, with a secondary ashpit in the fenced in large backyard. Out there is also a tree Cass calls "Mama`s tree" planted by their mom before she died. And a swing, & ill kept flower and veg garden "A*****`s project". The house is full of heavy wood furniture, rugs and very clean. A portrait at the top of the stairs of a young couple. Polly would be staying upstairs in a semi-dated room, all done in blue with shelves of books. Cass` old room, since Robert and Flora are off in a guest room with their parents. In the corner is a lightweight wheelchair and a bin of several canes. And on the green in town is a festival. Probably just pony rides, and carnival games + food. Bonfire and dances too. |
The people:
Frederick Lumbry->A brown haired, blue eyed, middle aged well off merchant. Cass` uncle, & basically their dad. Him & Mila are visiting from Gloucester |
Mila->Frederick`s housekeeper/best-friend & who raised Cass. Middle aged, mousey haired blue eyed woman. Well built, with soft smiles. |
Robin->Brother-in-law, but might as well be brother. Strawberry blond, green eyed. Cheerful, and kinda boyish. |
Elise->Robin`s wife. Very ladylike, but somewhat frail. Brown hair, blue eyes. |
Robert->strawberry blond, blue eyes with spectacles. Typical 9 year-old. Wants to be an explorer. Has a large fluffy dog named Hattie. |
Flora->auburn hair, green eyes. Smart for her 6 years. Loves animals, recently really into bats. Secretly wants to be a detective when she grows-up, like her aunt & uncle. |
Rupert Harker->manservant/butler. Youngish man, kinda based on Ronald Knox from "Kuroshitsuji" >_>;
