OUT OF STICKY BUNS :: I get to do two of these in one go? Then I know exactly who to talk about here - SHELBY and ALIX.
Although we’ve all interacted more on Twitter than on here, words cannot express how much I love these two. They’re both absolutely incredible people, in so many ways. They are two of the sweetest, smartest, most enthusiastic people I’ve had the pleasure of writing with in a long time!
Ever since we started following one another, Shelby has been one of the brightest lights on both my dash and my Twitter feed. She’s an immensely talented writer, and she’s put so much thought and love into her Amélie (@ofhalfway) that everything she writes for her is just an absolute joy to read. Honestly, one of the reasons she’s such a perfect Amélie is probably because Shelby herself is such an incredibly kind person - she’s always there for people, and her kindness just seems to know no bounds at all.
And Alix is absolutely wonderful, as well! We first followed one another on her multimuse, @secondchanced (which honestly contains so many amazing characters that I was just !!! when she followed me!), and now she has a blog for Nino on @easytovanish, too. Alix is an incredibly gifted writer, no matter who she is writing - but the direction she’s taken Nino in particular in is absolutely fantastic, honestly. She is also a truly amazing, lovely person - definitely a highlight of both my dash and my timelines, no question about it.
The reason I wanted to mention these two together, though, was so that I could talk about the way that they write Amélie and Nino together. I must confess that I’ve yet to see the musical (although please nag me to change that, because I need to!), but I have seen the film countless times. The detail, thought and affection that Shelby and Alix have put into Amélie and Nino is just incredible. You know when people end up writing a pairing between them, and it’s like they were made for each other? That’s these two, through and through. I adore watching the way they develop their characters and their plots so, so much.
