What’s your favourite fic of yours?
Whoaaaa #FanFic Friday coming in HOT with the tough asks!! I don’t know that it will come as a surprise to anyone, but my favorite fic is definitely In Vino! I’ve LOVED creating Nesta and Cash’s dynamic aware from the strictures (and problems) of canon, I love all the wine research I get to do, I love that it’s part of this larger AU-verse and that I can hide Easter Eggs in the stories! Basically, I just really enjoy writing In Vino, which is not always the case. Even though they are all your babies in a way, there are some fics which are fucking MISERABLE to work on, and which give me like...negative joy. Looking at you, Like a Lonely House.
Anyways, in honor of In Vino, here is a short VAGUELY SPOILERY snippet from an upcoming chapter. YOU’VE BEEN WARNED! ♥️
Sometime in the future...
Rhysand flashed a cat-like smile as he approached, giving lapels of his Armani blazer a self-important tug as he did so. The crisp shirt he wore beneath had the first several buttons undone, and Nesta could see the making of what was clearly a very intricate chest piece tattoo peeking out, the swirling lines matching the designs which covered the backs of each his hands.
Nesta,” he said in greeting, tone warm as if they were old friends. “Finally. Welcome to my kingdom, darling.”
His English accent was clipped but smooth, a clear product of his education at Eaton and Oxford.
Nesta smirked, turning to accept a genteel kiss on the cheek.
“So you’re the philandering rake I’ve heard so much about,” she said as they pulled away.
Rhysand’s answering grin was wicked as sin itself.
“And you’re even more beautiful than Cash described,” he shot back easily. “Careful, I might be tempted to steal you for myself.”
Nesta hit him with an expression Cash had affectionately termed “Disney Villainess.”
“I don’t know if I want to laugh in your face, or slap you across it.”
