spoilery 43 asks below the cut!
thank you! i absolutely fucked myself up writing that so i think it’s only fair that you all felt that way too :)
HAHAHHAH so most often when i post an ask game snippet i get to cackle evilly knowing that people are misinterpreting (thanks to those pesky pronouns) and think something spicy is about jily. it is so much rarer and just as sweet to have it be the other way around >:)
i SAID this was a James Being James chapter didn’t i!
i agree. gonna go add some spice to the draft i have for it now
clarity to come in future chapters, but yes! he goes on a last pickup run in.... 39 i believe, which is when jily are forced to physically walk while patrolling because he has the map (”to go meet a girl”)
AH THANK YOU you’re so sweet haha. james is full of contradictions when it comes to anger because he’s like... yes i have a short fuse. no i don’t hold grudges. but yes i will hold a grudge if you hurt someone i care about even unknowingly. no i will not tell you when you’re off the hook. no i don’t want to talk about “if we’re okay now.” yes i may be relaxed around you now but i reserve the right to be angry again at any moment. no i’m not really angry but i just want to remind you i was angry and have the moral high ground.
someone said in a comment that reading james go after mulciber felt markedly different and a little ... unhinged and that was totally the contrast i wanted to draw with his different kinds of anger in this chapter!
@oyprongs i know, thank you!! thank you so much!! both of these i will take pride in
