friendship dynamics in Two Hearts Could Be One, summarized
From the creator of angsty WIPs such as "what if Richard remained a monster in post game" and "what if Lambda tricked Asbel into killing Sophie" comes Dolphin's finest Graces fanfic scenario yet: What if Asbel had met Lambda on Lhant Hill as a kid instead of Sophie?
Dolphin awkwardly yet enthusiastically presents the frequently and mysteriously alluded to Tales of Graces long fic, working title "Two Hearts Could Be One"! An alternate universe in which Asbel and Lambda travel together, struggling to reconcile their flaws and learning to understand one another. One a martyr who'd sacrifice themselves to protect anything, the other a monster who'd sacrifice anything to protect themselves, both bonded in loneliness and bound in the same mind. Constant drama and angst guaranteed!* But stay tuned for that sweet happy?(???) ending after 25(?) chapters of the most emotionally gut-wrenching character drama a blorbo can endure!
Critics are calling it "Tales of Graces but better/worse," saying that the tone "ranges from bleak to hollow" and that "[Dolphin] should not have custody of Asbel" because "[Dolphin is] evil." Don't miss this chance to feel really depressed and distressed through the lens of what USED to be a chipper JRPG!!
Coming *eventually* to an Archive of Our Own near you!
*Contains graphic depictions of violence, possession, manipulation, body horror, and frequent suicidal ideation. Consult your local back arrow if you have concerns about problematic elements such as redemption arcs for abusive villains.

Thank you so much @soft-serve-soymilk for the wonderful Christmas gift!!!!!! Receiving such beautifully rendered art for my yet-unposted WIP was so touching 🥰 (and the compliment on the writing of my rough draft nearly caused me to burst into tears seriously that was a gift in and of itself 😭💜) I'm glad this rather depressing balcony scene spoke to you, you did an amazing job with the palette like always and I love the scenery, especially the addition of the lilies! It's a lovely piece, I have already stared at it lots and lots and will continue to do so 💜💜💜
happy 4th birthday to my WIP long fic Two Hearts Could Be One!!!
my free time is about to evaporate again ;_; so naturally i drew myself THREE separate scenes from Two Hearts Could Be One since i don;t know when i'll get another chance to make graces art for a while
Should I post guided reading questions in the author's notes of my fan fic?
Yes! It encourages critical thinking and reader engagement with the text
No! It's condescending. Ppl read fan fic for fun not homework
No, but you could post the questions elsewhere
Other (please specify in the tags)
it's probably moot anyway since the fic isn't finished but I wanted to hear others's thoughts on the etiquette of writer-reader interactions
reason number 874569 why i cannot be trusted with asbel
asbel you're not allowed to say that.
working on the next chapter (9) for Two Hearts Could Be One which involves Hubert's return to Lhant, but I keep cracking up at Asbel's dialogue which basically goes "Wait, what?" "Wait, what??" "Wait, WHAT??!" until Hubert kicks him out of town 😂
