Progress on L19 as of the current moment is very interesting. The characters organically "took over" in the campfire scene in the present, and that is currently 2k+ words of character building and expansions in the present of Lacrimosa's plot
and then we cut to Diego's pov three months later and surprisingly, what I thought would be a quick and snappy of the peace breaking at Brede Pass has become 1, 124 words already because of subtle world-building since Brede Pass is on the brink of becoming its IA1 name.
As of right now, L19 is 3, 491 words, so I am expecting possibly a 6k-7k chapter again... oops. :/
To be fair I have a lot of ground to cover since Diego is approaching his IA1 self and then we have a Five Year time skip after this incident at Brede Pass and its fallout, so...

Chapter 19 of CI: Lacrimosa is here! This chapter is a dark, heavy one and you will probably be saying "Poor Diego!" throughout! In the background, more hints about CI bk 1 are established through the development of Axel and Shelley's friendship, and Diego struggles with actions he made in the past that scar him in the present.
Read on,

And don't worry like I said in the a/n the next chapter will be much fluffier and a chance to get a breath in! And again, if you are reading, I so appreciate your comments/reviews! They are water in a desert to an author!
La conoscenza è faticosa, ci fa mettere in gioco, ha bisogno di concentrazione, impegno, silenzio..mentre la comunicazione no, è veloce, chiara, immediata, gratificante.
L19 is a go for Thursday! My beta and I got it finished this afternoon and now I have it ready in ffn's doc manager for 6pm Thursday night! This is honestly a rather brutal chapter so I really can't wait to see the reactions to it. :>
