Hi Rosie! I just wanted to duly inform you that chapter 8 of my fic "What if... Five Years Earlier" features a quick cameo from your precious boy Ivan. I gave you full credit in the author note at the end! One of my commenters on the previous chapter had the idea to include him and it was too tempting to pass up. It's very short, and I hope you enjoy how loved he is across the fandom. I included a little snippet of it below (it's an AU where we have no marked ones so I did take the liberty of turning him into a healer, hope you approve)!

My eyes fly to meet the cadet’s in complete outrage, and I falter for a second when I realize that I recognize the freckled face. “Ivan?”

“H-hey, Xaden,” he responds, offering me a tight smile. “You need to trust me on this. The longer we wait, the more damage there will be. The bleeding is putting pressure on her brain that has nowhere else to go. The holes will let it drain and be easily mended when they aren’t needed in a couple days.”

I swallow hard. I don’t know Ivan Luperco especially well, but we spent some time together when we were younger. His mom was one of my dad’s advisors on the Council before she was killed on the front a couple years ago. Mostly I remember Ivan being painfully shy and struggling with a stammer, but it felt oddly fitting when I heard he chose to enter the healers quadrant at the start of the year. A part of me notes that the only time he stuttered so far in this disaster is when he said hello to me. Never when he was acting as a healer, which he’s managed with genuine confidence.

I LOVE TO SEE AN IVAN APPEARANCE IN THE WILD AHHH like yes that's my lil guy 🥹

Agreed, he would have 100000% chosen to be an healer if given the choice! Linking the series here for anyone else who wants to add it to their TBR 💜

Hi Rosie!

I have a personal question, if you don’t mind.

I have been thinking on start writing but honestly have no idea where to start. Any tips that you could share?

Grazie 🤍

Hello! I'm like a week late to this ask because May was a busy month in my life.

The best advice I have is to start where you love! For example, I find dialogue to be my favorite thing to write, so if I'm struggling, I'll start by mapping out only the dialogue and then building the scene around it. This includes prioritizing wherever the inspiration is. When I started the spyverse, I only had like 6 scenes in my brain, so I wrote those out first. Some of those scenes didn't appear until wayyyyy later (literally, one is the Montserrat chapters and one is the final battle chapters), and I had to make changes of course, but having a future scene written out makes it feel like I'm writing towards something.

Writing doesn't have to be a linear process. I jump around a lot during the drafting steps and seriously edit in small chunks of 5 or so chapters, just so I can keep things consistent despite being a bit all over the place. Just write whatever sparks joy and you'll see the big picture start to come together soon than you think. It's much easier to piece together a ton of scenes/ideas you love than it is to stare at a blank doc because you're struggling with page 1.

But first! We must thoroughly understand this man's fractured and devastated sense of self. Only then can we truly appreciate how connected he feels to her while finger-banging the soul from her body.

this chapter was full of emotions i probably need to reread it a few times to process it.. 😞

I hope your family is well and you take good care of yourself!

oh, chapter 5 was definitely emotional! but at least the ending was sweeter than chapter 4 🤭

thank you, i'm doing alright! things may slow a bit for updates, but i'll return with more soon 💜

[plum-petals]

(send me an) ask and you shall receive (a fic update)

Chapter 5 of "heists, hijinks & other romantic gestures" is up!

[importantcatpics]

[plum-petals]

Hi, I love your heist fic.

Are you posting soon?

omg I'm so glad you're enjoying it! I definitely want to post Heistfic soon 💜 Unfortunately, I am at the stage where I need to introduce real plot instead of merely vibes, which took a backseat to spyverse!

Chapter 5 should be up soon 🤭

[plum-petals]

Hi Rosie,

I just wanted to check on you and see if you are alright.

Sending you lots of love 🤍

Hi, I'm all good! Dealing with family stuff, but otherwise doing fine.

It's so funny that I received this ask right when I opened Tumblr to post about dropping chapter 5 of spyverse part ii 💜

Chapter 4 of Spyverse Part II is up!

Ready for a twist?

[plum-petals]

Rosieeeee

Are we going to see Xaddy tomorrow at the new chapter of Part 2?

I miss himmmm (but not more than Vi)

ahhhh I do too!

Unfortunately, Xaden is not in chapter 4, which covers the first part of Assessment Day 🤭

[plum-petals]

hello, the spyverse series is at exactly 666,666 words and I can't stop giggling about it

[plum-petals]

Not a question but I don’t have anyone to discuss it in my live haha

I was re reading part 1 and was taken by surprise when Viktor said that Vi and Xaden were really intense people for being that insane to each other after only 8 months of dating.

And it made me CACKLE becase in canon they were only together for officially for 6-7 months before they GOT MARRIED.

Your timeline and relationship development makes so much sense than the canon one. In spyverse I do get why they are crazy for each other, in the books I think they are only crazy (and in their early 20’s).

So thank you for fixing that as well hahaha

hahaha no exactly! thinking about victor, who definitely did not foresee the local freak4freak couple coming and now he has to deal with it, makes me giggle.

riorgail are mentally crashing out and meanwhile some poor guy who definitely didn't ask for this is like:

i'm glad you enjoy them being insane about each other 💛
