Stolen from awanderingbard

Give me the name of a character, pairing, 'verse, or story I've written, and I'll give you 3-5 facts about writing it/them. Headcanon, backstory, missing scenes, etc.

I've been toying with doing something in my mini-Dresdens verse. Because Mal and Fay's daemons wouldn't be settled yet, and that would be fun. It's plot that hard. I guess it's just a normal plot with daemons involved? I'd have to fiddle with it. I have my daemons all worked out, now, I just need to do something with them.

Edited because apparently I forgot how to grammar and autocorrect sucks.. Sorry!

Unsettled daemons are really fun to play with. :)

And you're right, it's just regular plot with daemons, so just a regular scene of whatever you are writing with that extra level, which can play into things a lot or just a little, however you wish to write it.

The one thing I don't know is how daemons are named? Do your parents name you and your daemon, or do you name your daemon and if so, what do they call your daemon until you're old enough to speak?

Unfortunately, how a daemon gets its name isn't explained in the books. Fanfic seems to go with the idea the child just knows or that the parents daemons' give the daemon a name.

Oh, I hadn't thought of the parents' daemon naming them. That's a cool idea.

Yes! I think that idea goes back an interview Phillip Pullman gave so perhaps it could be considered canon-ish.
