There is no need to apologize for taking so long to get us the new chapter. We are so appreciative of all the work you've put into this. It's been a little over a year since the first chapter, and you are at 84,610 words, which would be anywhere between 282 to 338 pages in a book. This is such a big accomplishment! Especially considering this is the first project you worked on in years. I am so proud of you!!!!

Awww thank you so much, Anon!! 🥹💖

i’m rereading Fire on Fire rn and this passage “Someone as handsome and charming as him probably already had a sweetheart back home, maybe several, all sending him flowery love letters and photographs for him to keep with him and sending wishes for his safe return.” omg. the parallel to the later chapters😭😭😭😭 i love this story, ur writing, and alix sm🫶🫶🥰🥰

Omg Anon, I am so sorry I am just now getting to this!! I have been offline for longer than I expected but I am back, babey!! 🤌🏽

And yes, in this house we love parallels, even especially when they hurt!! 💀

Thank you so much for the Ask & the compliments, my lovely!! 💖💖💖

Oh yeah, the way a person treats animals is so, so important. I also relate to that, about how a person treats my loved ones.. Tying the two together, someone treats my pets badly I’ll never forgive them!! But if they bond with my pets, they bond with me. 

Never worry about taking time to write back! 

Yoda is such a wonderful Shih Tzu name 💗 Hello Yoda!!!

🦖 Favorite extinct animal?

I can’t pick one!! 

Tasmanian Tigers were beautiful & interesting, & it’s sad they were killed off as so many species are. The Blue Calamintha Bee was thought to be extinct until recently. I love Mason Bees, we get them here in the warmer months, and this Blue type looks lovely. 

What about you?

🐸 Describe your aesthetic.

Blossom trees, wood, metallic glitter. Dark, autumnal, velvety. “Concours d’élégance en 1925. RV-49505” on recollections.biz is what I sometimes aim for in clothing, LOL. 

🤎 What color is your hair?

Underneath it’s dark brown, but the visible outer part (where the sun hits) is much lighter - for the nut theme, peanut-coloured 😁 (chocolate and peanut butter 🤭)

Thank you for the interesting questions!! Fun ask game! 

Aw, you always make me smile ☺️ You are so lovely too and I am hugging you back in my heart and mind 💛💕 Thank you for writing with me, pen pal 💞

🌰

Aw thank you!! Yeah, she's always had these big Baby Yoda eyes & these cute lil teefs, so we thought it was fitting 🤭🥰

Oooh I've never seen a blue Mason bee in person before!! They're so pretty! 😁

I ADORE Woolly Mammoths, Glyptodons, & the Dodo!! They're all so freaking cute & I love them dearly 🙈

Oooh omg I love your aesthetic!! And chocolate + peanut butter is such a pretty hair combination!! Ugh, I just know you're so pretty!! 😍

And you're too sweet! Thank YOU for writing, my beloved 🌰 pen-pal!! I hope your month has gone well!! Keeping busy, I presume?? 💖💖💖

Ah, I always love the questions in ask games. Can I ask you 🐰 and 🌸? Finally just read chapter 25 - I’m such a slow reader.. Always enjoy reading memories and flashbacks, and Alix’s friendship with Skip is lovely as always.

‘She desperately wanted to ask about Joe but she knew better. 

She would play it cool.

"So what’d I miss? How is everyone?” she inquired casually but her handler let out a snort.  

“You mean, how’s 'Joey’ ?” 

One of the many downsides of being friendly with an intelligence officer, Alix thought ruefully: They Know Too Much. ’

-one of my new favourite moments! Their dynamic 🤭 So in-character.

Feel free to ask me any of the questions! I feel nosey if I don’t get the other person to be nosey, too, lol! Anyway, hello again!! Almost May, time is flying 💕🤗

Hello lovely Nut Anon!!

I'm so sorry I'm just now responding to this!! Things have been crazy here bc my Shih Tzu, Yoda, has been getting into shenanigans (as per usual) 🤭

🐰 What do you think says the most about a person? How they treat animals!! The way in which somebody does or doesn't respect + love the friends we share the world plays a huge role in how I view them personally!

🌸 Best compliment you ever received? Honestly, any + all compliments I receive are, like, permanently tattooed on the inside of my brain so it's hard to pick just one🙈

I'm so glad you liked Chapter 25, btws!! It's been a lot of fun to explore Alix's mind as her memories slowly return! 😁

I have a few questions for you, beloved Anon, off the same Ask Game (bc I freaking love how creative the questions are on it 🤭):

🦖 Favorite extinct animal?

🐸 Describe your aesthetic.

🤎 What color is your hair?

Thank you so much for the Ask, Anon!! And you're right, time is absolutely flying by!! Feels like just yesterday it was still winter 😆

[xandra-warrior-princess]

Ahh, wow!! You’ve got a knack for psychological analysis, if I may say 💗

“Where do you turn when the drugs run out & it’s 3 AM & you’re comin’ down? All your friends are asleep ‘cause they’re all okay  & you need someone, but you don’t wanna say”

Those lyrics really fit for Nixon, as do the others… Thank you for doing the request ☺️ This is so interesting. I’m gonna actually listen to these later as I’m not familiar with some of them! Here’s another I thought of; “Running To Stand Still”, U2

“Step on a steam train; Step out of the driving rain, maybe; Run from the darkness in the night” + “Cry without weeping; Talk without speaking; Scream without raising your voice; You know I took the poison, from the poison stream; Then I floated out of here”

Cooking dinner at the moment - it’s that hoisin sauce meal but this time with fermented veg. Ah, a long message since it’s been a little while! Yes, I’m doing good, thank you 🙏 I hope you are too, lovely 💞

Thank you so much, dear 🌰 Anon!! Psychoanalysis is a fun hobby of mine! 😌

I apologize for the wonky state of the text!

For some reason, Tumblr is glitching & no matter how many times I keep fixing the text, it keeps going nuts on me again 💀

And omg i totally get that one!! U2 really has a Nix vibe tbh! 🤌🏼

Also your dinner sounds lovely!! I hope it turns out great!! ☺️

Thank you for the Ask, beloved!! 💖

[xandra-warrior-princess]

Lewis Nixon for the playlist ask game, if you want! He’s portrayed in such a fascinating way, and also you write him so good, so coming up with songs for him could be fun 💜

Btw, a song that always reminds me of him is “Gonna Wait For You” by The Pentagons. It’s on YouTube, don’t think it’s on Spotify. Not really sure why I associate it with him, but thought I’d share! Hope you’re doing good 💕 I’m sooo busy atm so I’m not on tumblr much these days, but thought I’d pop in with this before disappearing again, lol.

Ooh hello again, my dear Nut Anon!! I've missed you & I hope life is treating you well!! 😁

[I had way too much fun with this one bc I love getting to lean into Nix's inner complexities🤌🏼]

1.) "Achilles Come Down" ~ Gang of Youths

"You are absent of cause or excuse. So self-indulgent & self-referential, no audience could ever want you You crave the applause yet hate the attention, then miss it. Your act is a ruse."

2.) "Eyes on the Prize I" ~ Spies Are Forever

"Although I may be hard on you, I'm only trying to help and I know that my past actions have not shown you how I felt. You're a master of deception, a gentleman of stealth... Just don't screw up and die on me, or I'll kill you myself!"

3.) "Another Terrible Day" ~ The Lightning Thief Musical

"Oh, you're alive. I suppose that's good news for you but it means a lot more paperwork for me so don't expect me to be happy to see you. Of course, being alive is temporary..." "Another terrible day... You can hate it here but I hated it first! Just another terrible day, stuck with these runts in the muck and mud... I need a drink."

4.) "The Cave" ~ Mumford & Sons

"I know my call, despite my faults & despite my growing fear. But I will hold onto hope & I won't let you choke on the noose around your neck. I'll find strength in pain & I will change my ways I'll know my name as it's called again."

5.) "Are You There" ~ All Time Low

"Where do you turn when the drugs run out & it's 3 AM & you're comin' down? All your friends are asleep 'cause they're all okay & you need someone, but you don't wanna say"

Thank you so much for the Ask, my dear!! 💖

Well, I want to write a series on BOB, but I haven't researched anything yet. I am just tempted to wing it and make a concept on a character, ya know? My attention span is shot.

I completely get that, Anon!! Go wherever the inspo takes you!! 💖

[xandra-warrior-princess]

Are you on any cool discords?

I am!! I'm a part of 2 wonderful groupchats 🥰

Thank you for the question, lovely!!
