what’s YOUR top five parallel moments/quotes whatever dude hehehe
😀yeah so- Parallel Players. Insane4Insane Glance. Spoilers under the cut.
1. Chapter 25. I live in this chapter. The way you built this up, including George doing a whole ass video on Qatar. The emotions o.o. But specifically the moment when Lance is like "um so-" and George runs, beats the speed of light to get the ring to launch that proposal without planning it that way and I totally lost it when I first read that. So in tone of the whole story and oh I gravitate towards this chapter.
1.5. Chapter 9 THE Portugal trip I have read countless times. Ok! It's so precious. George being like Urgh I'm working- Oh that's nice actually and oh ofc let's share the room, no big deal and Alex and Lily being like 👀and jagshjhsjh positive pining vibes. Yay.
2. No specific moment but the way you built up the chat and texts and how each has their own voice in them and I normally tend to skim over something like stream chats but I didn't do that here. Everything just fit in and was fun to read.
3. Does it count if I put both Chapter 13 and 14? 🤫WHEN you started foreshadowing chapter 13 by the time you, I believe, uploaded chapter 11? I was so 😟nervooouuuss and then urgh 13 took me out. If you could've seen me read this hshshshhs. Explosion of thoughts and feelings this man went through was already ENOUGH and then boom the texts and voicemails, that type of chapter that leaves you staring at your wall. I don't even know. Rereading this is actually both amazing and insane but- and then you said you thought about putting the messages from Lance in chapter 14. IMAGINE!!!! Chapter 14 was so reassuring to read though lol. I love how you did this and how George running away was at THAT time of 2023. Per-fect.
4. The book that was the last chapter! You changed my brain chemistry with the whole thing but reading that phenomenal ending in one go, was an experience for sure. Just the details put into the vlog was insane and the rest AHH peace and happiness ok.
5. no bins. St. Barts. The dogs. SINGAPORE 23.
Also-
Just the fact that this *long* story did not have one chapter where I was bored. Always hooked.
And- When I do my eventual reread from chapter 1 I will put down notes for favourite quotes 🥹yay.
