So… what’s next?? (Asks stupidly eagerly)

Aaaaaaaaaaaah! 😱

Haha, sorry, but I really do need a break. (Well. Not a break as much as a break for my liver, a return to a ‘normal’ sleeping schedule, a reminder to my IRL friends that I still exist, and, OH YEAH, to do wedding planning.)

BUT ALSO! I’m so, so, so excited to have time to READ again 🥰😍🥰 I really do struggle to read and write at the same time, bc I don’t want to be swayed, or forget my own plot and characterizations, so I really have to limit what I can inhale!

So I’m excited to finish @breaniebree’s Jily! I want to start @clare-with-no-i Bond and Free! @thequibblah’s Come Together! @hogwartslivy’s Trackside 🏎! Or @chdarling’s The Last Enemy! I’m currently obsessed with @theesteemedladydebourgh’s Jingle: Holy Fuck! 🎄 and @maraudersftw’s Room Service and @cesays’ Come What May 💃 AND @startanewdream ILLICIT AFFAIRS! 🤤

I haven’t even read classics like @bcdaily’s Commentarius and I cannot WAIT! ☺️

Anyway… thank you for being excited for what’s next. I have a feeling when I write my next story, it will be my Bachelorette AU 🌹😁

Every morning I’m a bit sad not to have an update email from ao3 about your fic.

🥺 cer...

you're going to make me do something insane, like post TFTDC faster.

I feel like it doesn't really matter, but I changed my username on AO3 and ffn to match my username on here. Just in case anyone sees and feels confused.

9 & 10! 💕

hi hi beloved cer! thank you!

9. Which fic has been the hardest to write?

theogony takes the most time for research, but I think bond and free has required a lot more planning. but as baf is on hiatus and theogony is something I'm currently working on, it definitely takes the forefront of my mind!

10. Which fic has been the easiest to write?

spice and honey or to be always kind and true both flew pretty quickly! those little fluffy one-shots are always fun, and they don't have high stakes, so I always feel really good putting them out.

thanks again, this was so fun! <3

I’ve had She’s Always a Woman by Billy Joel stuck in my head for approx three days now. Not a music rec as such but I thought you should know.

oh cer what a CHUUUUUUNE I’m honestly a little jealous…

11,13 b&f!!

omg hi cer!! <3

11. What do you like best about this fic?

I really enjoy getting to flesh out my versions of the characters (something I miss doing!! ugh I need to pick up this story again) in their natural settings. I love how immersive it feels for me to write and to be in this world, and how fun it is to imagine them living day-to-day. it's just so fun!

13. What music did you listen to, if any, to get in the mood for writing this story? Or if you didn’t listen to anything, what do you think readers should listen to to accompany us while reading?

I listed to so much music! I listened to a ton of 70s rock to get acquainted with the era of music, because I love featuring music in stories, and I feel like it's so pivotal for the era of record players and wireless radios. I also listened to a lot of Adele, because she feels really cinematic as a songwriter and I felt so strongly like I was in the world when I was listening to 'chasing pavements.' what a woman amirite!

and there are a bunch of bond and free playlists for each character, many of which are public on my Spotify profile! I have many more lying in wait, like ones for Dorcas, Mary, Reg, Peter, etc. but the main characters are all up as of right now!

thank you so much Cer!! <3

Cesays- 11 & 16 [@sanguinarytrolls]

@sanguinarytrolls​ thanks for putting in the work! i really appreciate it :)

11. They’ve won the lottery. Spend, or save?

Cesays doesn’t hang on to money well; he doesn’t feel much need for new stuff, so most of it goes to supporting local businesses and helping his lower-caste friends out

16. If money wasn’t a limit, what would they wear?

well, to be honest, money isn’t really an obstacle for him, so i guess i’ll take this opportunity to brainstorm for his outfit. he likes getting stuff secondhand or factory reject, which gives him a kinda incidental grunge vibe that he digs. all in all he looks like he just walked out of a fair trade communal coffee shop on his way to cram for the environmental studies final
