two shades of tender, in a tug of war

Had she really thought I would not know him? I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.

hello world! here are the covers i made for messermoon’s (aka @little-shit-soph) choices, based on the penguins classics format! i’ve made book pdfs that go with each cover, and all the necessary files (+a printing tutorial for those who are first-timers) to print can be found in this gdrive folder.

feel free to use these at your own leisure and if you do end up printing my covers, please send me a picture—i would love to see how they turn out <3

happy printing!

patrochilles + being consumed by each other

god. siblings. so stupid broken or whatever. so stupid, they’re so stupid about each other. when your house is burning down and you can escape the fire, why is the last thing you want to save your sibling? why is it “your parents will kill you” “but i have a sister” why is it “you’re a year younger than me johnny, but i raised you. i may have only seen you three times a week, but i raised you”? why is it “of course i’ll be with you, i’ve been with you before you were born” why is it “you’re the worst person in the world, but can you please make me a sandwich and get us out of here?” the person i can hurt the best is the one i want to keep the safest, my brother, who will never be over seven years old to me, who will always let me hold his ear when i want to, even if my parents insist it’s uncomfortable. my brother, whom i will go to the ends of the earth for, drop everything and everyone for. i know how to hurt him so terribly, make him remember forever, but when i get my first paycheck it’ll go in an envelope with his name on it. every single penny, so he knows.

that daughterhood feeling of wanting to blame your mother for how you turned out, wanting to be angry at her for how you’ve inherited her pain and her insecurities, but at the same time wanting to keep coming home to her, out of everyone else in the universe, because you know that if there’s anyone who might be anything like you–if there’s anyone who might even have a clue of what it’s like to be you–it could only be her. and no matter how many times you’ve hurt each other, no matter how difficult it might be to get her to truly see you, you still just want her to love you as you are, to tell you that this isn’t your fault, and to show you that she would keep letting you come home to her.

hi!! thank you so much for uploading the covers, but i wanted to ask how legal is this? some people on tiktok say it’s ok others say they don’t know and i just wanted to ask if this is ok to do?

hi, thanks for your question! to be honest i think the legality of it is a bit questionable and it’s not something i’m 100% on, but i was more concerned about making sure the author was cool with it before making the covers and typesets public—that said, i totally understand if you or others are uncomfortable with the idea of people printing the fanfic and if enough people ask me, i’d be willing to take down the links for it

this is the anon that messaged you abt an order being cancelled. lulu said that if any content is flagged as fanfic they cancel the order and suspend the account :( very heartbroken abt that since i have used it before to print atyd. but just wanted to give a heads up to those it may happen to!

oh no, i’m so sorry to hear that! :(( thanks for letting me know, and here’s a psa/warning for anyone who’s planning to print choices on lulu who hasn’t yet

[jeongkuk]

hello, i was wondering how you managed to generate the spine for your choices covers. I love them so much they are so beautiful and I would like to do something similar for my favourite fic :)

i made it in photoshop to match the front and back covers manually, so unfortunately there isn’t a generator i can refer you too :(
