Okay so it took me ages (both a mix of procrastination and uni) but I FINALLY finished my first bookbind project!
Here is my bound physical copy of the very talented @chiconisroc 's TFE fanfic, Trust Me
As a very amateur bookbinder, each step of this was my first time trying typesetting, sprayed edges, sewing a headband, making bookcloth and making a hardcover (mainly via YT tutorials lol)
The only part of this I'd done before was binding the actual signatures together, so although a little scuffed I had tons of fun binding this and trying all these different techniques!
I also made a dustcover for the book, after being granted permission by @owly-lumi to feature their gorgeous fanart in my bind
Anyways definitely check out Trust Me by @chiconisroc on AO3 and @owly-lumi <3
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
Woo, 10 chapters! : D
Couldn't have done this without everyone's support <3, totally appreciate it : )
Let me know what ya all think : )
Summary
Adam awakens as a fallen angel, a sinner in hell, cast away by the angels who had once claimed to ‘treasure’ him. Thinking there is no way back to heaven, he just wants to drown in resentment and spiral toward self-destruction.
Of course, there is no way Charlie is going to let that happen, even when a powerful enemy is ready to strike soon.
And maybe, just maybe, Hell isn’t such a bummer of a place as he initially thought.

A couple of years ago, I came across an interesting idea in a fanfiction. There, the Exorcists were people who suffered during their lifetime from other people. And that's why they were happy to kill sinners during the purges, they could take revenge on all those who bullied others.
What do you think, is this better than the idea that Exorcists were created by angels?
Idk which idea is better, honestly o.o. i chose my route due to plot purposes for my story, hahaha
