Title: White-Water Singer
Fandom: Stand Still, Stay Silent
Characters/Pairing: SSSS original characters; Jussi/Láilá, as told by Niko
Rating: 0+
Length: 600 words/96 lines
Summary: Niko's song in memory of his father, Jussi, who died while navigating the dangerous river route connecting Kajaani to the outside world.
Other: Developing some characters from my Kajaani storyline. I wanted to explore the relationship that Niko's parents had together, and Niko's relationship with his father, but that's a little bit difficult when one of the parties is long-deceased, so I decided to get creative.
Many thanks to Laufey for helping me hash out the general idea behind transport in this region, the use of rivers for travel, and the difficulties of navigating Oulujoki. <3
Challenge prompt for this was "Family".

❀: If anything seems weird/incorrect about anything Saami-related, please let me know. Or if you have suggestions/ideas about what year 90 of the SSSS world would look like re: Saami people and their culture, I'd love to talk about it with you.
