big news: as of today, february 1st, 2019, ryan finished writing p&p!! I couldn’t resist making a celebratory doodle...There’s not much left to do with the zine, I only need to finish illustrations, but there will be an update on ao3 anyday soon! Thank you for your support throughout the years! Stay tuned!
Be sure to check this tag for further updates/past updates!
It’s December, and officially like, two years since I got into p&p, and almost one since we opened zine preorders. I just did an update as an ask, but if you want to know more, feel free to dig through the p&p tag on my blog. For now, I’ll release a bit more of Book I’s illustrations with each update as we near the end of this journey!

I just read p&p and I loved it! What’s this zine thing about?
So! If you haven’t been here from the start, first of all, thank you so much for reading and for being interested! On 2016 Ryan started writing, and by 2017 we were a team, and I suggested printing the whole fic as a zine, with my own illustrations. Thing is, p&p is long, so we ended up needing to cut it into Book I and Book II, and since I’m extra, there’s a concept artbook nearly done and ready to print with the other books. So, we made bundles- one with both books- the whole fic- and one with the concept artbook and extras (keychain, bookmark, stickers), the ultimate bundle. For those interested in prices, they were as so:
♢ Each book separately for $25 each Vol., $20 for "Kingdoms" Concept Artbook
♢ Bundle (Vol. I + II, bookmark, stickers) for $50
♢ Ultimate Bundle (Vol. I + II, "Kingdoms" Concept Art zine, bookmark, stickers, keychain) for $66
♢ Digital Bundle (Vol. I + II) for $30
Not including shipping. Shipping went from $7 to $30, depending on place and bundle- two 300ish pages books + a concept artbook can really get expensive to ship. We will ship from US (Ryan).
Amazing! Can I still buy a copy of p&p? Physical or digital?
You will be able to buy a digital copy yes or yes, eventually. As for physical orders, we’re finishing Book II as of now, and we need to get numbers sorted out- a lot of people have canceled orders and we need to finish to calculate exactly the rest of the costs (we can’t check exact price without exact page count, so on and so forth). We are planning to open them again ONCE EVERYTHING IS SORTED OUT, AND READY TO PRINT. They will be open for a short time, on a new store, and we will probably not open them again. People who bought physical version WILL get the digital version anyways, as soon as we have it ready to print, independently of how long it takes to print or ship, so they can choose whether to wait for their copy to arrive or to read on digital as soon as possible.
Will the rest of the fic be uploaded to ao3?
Eventually, yes- though we will release it AFTER we ship physical copies, gradually, and will get the finale way later than people who did buy.
Why will the new preorders be on a different store than the old one?
Our store got closed down because of a single bad handled refund case (someone reached out directly to storenvy and we didn’t notice in time- they have their refund in place by now), so we’ll resume digital copies on there once every single order is shipped and we fulfill storenvy’s conditions to open it again. We will need to open a new store to add to the physical orders, since it will lower costs for everyone, but we’re not trying to scam anyone here, if that’s what you’re worried about.
Do we have a solid timetable for once?
UPDATE, JUNE 1TH, 2019: We’ll be mailing all the people who ordered the fic digitally, as illustrations are still missing. Hopefully our new release window will be around July, 2019, and no more late...!
UPDATE, SEPTEMBER 21ST, 2020: life’s been getting in the way, on more ways than one. I’m getting out of a wrist injury, but I’m working on the books as I’ve been for these past years.
I want a refund.
Please DM ME ON TWITTER (@midoriyaizuhugs) if you wish to get one. We’d been issuing refunds for a long time now, but we HAVE used some money so it won’t be a full refund- we have both bookmarks and keychains printed since 2017. I’ve been missing some emails so I want to make sure you get an answer.
I want to keep supporting you guys!
Thank you! We only ask for a little more of patience and any positive encouragement you guys have to offer is more than welcome. Any art, comment, message, tag, cosplay- they’re all wonderful and we wish to see it all. Damn, I miss that blog that used to have everything in once place!
I want more regular updates.
I made a discord earlier this year, mass emailing it to people who bought the zine. You can get in too, to have more regular updates. It’s been pretty quiet because of my wrist injury but it’ll be livelier soon, hopefully.
The finale got leaked on drive!
I unfortunately can’t do anything about it, but if you choose to read it, I hope you enjoyed the last few chapters. I hope people who have been holding out on reading it until illustrations are done are rewarded for their patience.
That’s all! If there’s any questions left please message me here or on twitter (@midoriyaizuhugs), and I’ll get to you as fast as possible. Please avoid asking questions on tags or replies, since there’s 80% of chance I WON’T see it and thus, wont’ be able to answer. Have a nice day!
said I wouldn’t show more illusts before the zine was released, but people were afraid we weren’t doing work or that we dropped out, so here’s a proof we’re alive, kickin’ and doing our best to finish this big passion project!
Hi is there a status update for p&p? I've seen a few posts about yet another zine scam in the bnha fandom and i just wanted to check on this one because its been a long while since we all preordered?
Hello! Do not worry! Please do look through the p&p tag on my blog, there are multiple updates and sneak peeks and I try to update every few months, at least. As a TL;DR: Book I is done, and we’re aiming for a final release near christmas, only two chapters away from finishing the whole thing, so we ask for a little more patience!
