This is exactly how I feel, and because I know this feeling, this becomes so much more than what it says.
This isn't my first time reading this, but unlike the other times, it really connected to me. I'm not sure if I read the tone right, but it feels (to me) like stating fact. The narrator isn't bemoaning their life, in fact, they occasionally seem morbidly amused. To them, they're stating facts of life, even if it it sad. Anyway, good work.
This is really beautiful. I can't really tell if you were meaning to write about yourself, or about someone else, or both, but I think that either way this is a very powerful work. It really painted a picture for me, and I think others would agree.
It's sad and lonely. It bleeds emotion, and is just so perfectly... I don't know how to describe it. Honestly, this is how I feel about all of my friendships. This always happens. This was just written so well, so exactly how it is.
Well, Henna is weird, and Sir Ayren seems kinda fishy, but I'm sure there's more on that later.
I think I agree with melissak (again :3). I don't really know what it is though. Something to consider about the dresses is that they might have tried to give her less fancy dresses to help her ease into her new life. Less frills, less poofyness, less lace, but still soft and silky. Also, about how old is Lu?
Part of the thing with the name is the style your going for. Lu sounds (to me) like a name of a fantasy type world. Names like the ones melissak suggested fit the world, and the ones I would say most fits your style are Keon or Yusuf, although the others are fine as well. The names sound a bit too rich for a poor boy, especially if he's an orphan. I looked up some names (although I feel like that's never very satisfying), and I found a few that were okay.
Ern
Pepin
William
Liam
Most of the others were kinda weird. Hope this helps!
This is so amazing! I love the flow!
