Chapter Text
I just want to say really fast what I'm thinking about doing for this series. As you've read this is a historical piece so something just isn't going to add up to its modern counterpart. For example, I'm not sure how to make Hoyt an officer/ authority figure. I was going to make him a military officer during the Texan Revolution but that happened way before he was born. So he might just end up being just an asshole with an authority complex. With this said, I know very little about Texas during this time (as you might guess I'm not a Texan). I'm trying to do research but I'm not going to spend hours on it. I don't want that to be the focus anyway. I want it to be more about their individual lives not about Texan history. Well, I'm just saying sorry if I get some things wrong.
Now, I want to talk about the actual plot I have in mine. I want to have this be the TCM the Beginning equivalent. The idea is that this will start before the actual cannibalism and murder happens. It will happen, but the story doesn't start in the middle of it. I also want the Hewitt's and Emma to basically create a mutual bond through the need to overall survive rather than a predator-prey relationship. They will all obviously have a different perspective on what they are doing due to their upbringings (Hewitt always lived in poverty but Emma did not).
Okay, back to writing!
