In Bloom by Celia_and

And just when she was getting some serious attention from the teachers at the start of the last, pivotal year of school, he came along with his effortless perfection. She hated him.

Right up until she met him, that is.

----------

The flowers that bedeck her skin don’t lie. Ballet dancer Rey is in love with her partner, Ben. But the years go by and his skin stays resolutely, devastatingly blank.

He doesn’t love her. But when his hands are on her body, she can pretend.

There are plenty of things he could say, but he doesn’t.

Buying you muffins makes me excited to get out of bed in the morning. I wish I could go back in time and be the kind of person you could like. I don’t remember my life before you.

When Kylo finds his soulmate, she doesn’t know, and he doesn’t tell her.

Ugh. I love this fic. So beautifully written -- wringing out every last bit of angst and emotion. Despite it's relatively short length (I can't belive it's under 20k!) It packs in so much detail! An engrossing story, well constructed and executed. Normally I wax on about prose and characterization (which this defintly has, it's Celia_and her writting is brilliant) but this fic... just, just ... go read it. You'll know what I mean. It is something else.

Working on a short work. I normally do anything less than 50k words as mini hardcovers with A5 paper, but I’m think of doing this as a zine or trying our German stiffened paper binding.

I went around craft stores and Staples today to canvas the kind of paper I’ll want to try, thinking I might want vellum but it’s either too translucent or too thick. So I might go with cream-colored A5 and waxed colored thread for this project.

In the meantime, I’m (im)patiently waiting for Celia_and to complete this amazing fic so I can get to printing.
