Asking for a friend who doesn't have Tumblr
-is tst getting a spinoff or more in tst universe books?
-part of the above, but could there ever be a book about paloma?
(My friend hc that Paloma falls in love with the lumbre child who was sunbearer because sad and beautiful)
-lastly, is there a crossover between cb and tst?
hello!
nothing official yet! but i do have some spin off ideas (one being where Niya and Auristela go on an adventure to deal with a primordial volcano goddess!)
i think a book about paloma could be very cool! but also a very sad ending!
Cemetery Boys and the Sunbearer Trials are NOT in the same universe, but if you're paying atteention, you might notice one character ~crosses over~ between the two 👀
Ok, so I'm reading The Sunbearer Trials series. On book two. How is Teo pronounced? And Xio, for that matter.
Is it Tee-oh? Tay-oh? I think Xio is pronounced Zee-oh
I do not wanna pronounce their names wrong :3
honestly it just depends on what accent you have! Teo is just "Tay-oh" in both an american and latam spanish accents
Xio would be Zee-oh with an american accent, but She-oh in a latam spanish accent!
is there a discord server for the readers of your books or smth like that?? especially the sunbearer trials and cemetery boys which are my favorites!!!
thr isn't!! should we make one??
What would foster care be like in reino del sol?
WOW SUCH A GREAT QUESTION!
foster care in Reino del Sol would be really community-based. kids wouldn’t be seen as only their biological family’s responsibility, but as part of the whole community.
it wouldn’t be a cold system where children are just taken away and placed wherever there’s room. the first priority would be helping the family with whatever they’re missing, whether that’s housing, money, safety, healing, or support from the people around them. but if a child truly couldn’t stay with their parents, they’d be placed with people already connected to them, like relatives, family friends, neighbors, mentors, or someone from their own city who understands their culture and identity.
Reino del Sol would care a lot about keeping siblings together, keeping kids close to their home city whenever possible, and making sure they don’t lose their connection to their community, traditions, or sense of self. especially in a world like The Sunbearer Trials, where identity, legacy, and community matter so much, foster care would be about protecting who the child already is, not making them start over.
what i really love about that idea is that it makes foster care feel less like a government system and more like a promise everyone shares — no child gets left alone, forgotten, or treated like a problem to pass around. they’d be protected, listened to, and given a real place to belong, whether that means safely going back to their family or finding a new permanent home. i think Mala Suerte’s city would probably be one of the biggest examples of how foster care works in Reino del Sol, because it’s already a place where people go when they’re down on their luck and need somewhere to land.
instead of treating struggling families or kids as failures, the city would be built around giving them a second chance. people who need help wouldn’t be pushed away or judged. they’d be welcomed, supported, and given time to heal. so for kids who don’t have a safe home, Mala Suerte “adopting” them feels less like a formal legal thing and more like him creating a huge chosen family for anyone who has been forgotten, abandoned, or unlucky.
his role would be really important because he represents the part of the system that says, “You still belong somewhere, even when life has been unfair to you.” his city would be the safety net for kids who fall through the cracks. it would give them food, shelter, protection, community, and people who actually see them as full people, not just as problems.
Mala Suerte’s city wouldn’t be where kids are sent to disappear, it would be where they go to be found again. the goal wouldn’t be to erase their past or separate them from who they are, it would be to help them feel safe, loved, and connected until they can either return to their family safely or build a new permanent family with people who truly choose them.
that makes his city feel like the heart of Reino del Sol’s foster care system — a place for the unlucky, the lost, and the left-behind to be cared for without shame. WHAT A WONDERFUL QUESTION! that was a fun thought experiment!
