Hope it's not too late to sign up!DH: Selwyn Septimus Crane, 22
DW: Metis Mackenzie Crane, 21I'm giving this a fantasy twist!Selwyn is the seventh son of Serena Crane, head of the Daughters of the Moon, the most powerful witches coven in New England. Selwyn was a natural warlock, just like his older sister and six older brothers, but not especially talented as far as anyone could tell. Like all his siblings, he went to Lowery-Tillman Preparatory School, were he got passable but unremarkable grades and failed to distinguish himself in any particular way.On the other hand, Metis' childhood was nothing but distinguished. The only daughter of Hannah Mackenzie, an eccentric woman and witch who lived off the grid in a New England forest, Metis (named for a goddess and born in the light of a full moon) Mackenzie's childhood was full of magic. By the age of sixteen she was a powerful witch in her own right. Defying her mother, Metis enrolled herself in a local high school, graduating top of her class despite having no formal education.Seeking to further her study of magic, Metis became an acolyte of the Daughters of the Moon. She immediately caught Serena Crane's eye. Serena felt very threatened by the young, powerful witch and sought to destroy her.Serena set an elaborate trap. She enchanted a bird to sing a song that would lure a powerful witch to a house in the woods - were she would immediately be put to sleep. Metis was indeed drawn in by the song - but so was Selwyn. Metis arrived at the house in the woods to find a beautiful, sleeping young man prone on the floor. She woke him with a kiss and they fell in love. Realizing the would never be safe from Serena Crane, Selwyn & Metis went into hiding, leaving New England and heading west. They eloped in a private ceremony at the Grand Canyon, sharing their first kiss as the sun set behind them. For a while they settled on the outskirts of a small Arizona town, working periodically to afford their modest home, but dedicating most of their time to unlocking Selwyn's powers.... until on day, Selwyn's oldest sibling, his sister Sybil Crane, came to them to warn them that Serena was still after them and was seeking to find Metis' mother as a way to hurt them. They immediately made plans to return to New England and hopefully save Metis' mother and defeat Serena...
