Director's cut: Did you have a specific (real) cover in mind when you wrote Cover Boy?
No, actually, that came from an ask, so I just imagined Billy in the most Billy pose ever (tongue out, over the shoulder glance, absolute horndog.)
Steve never stood a chance.

Chica!
(I had this done and went to post on time but Tumblr had to go and eat the post. Twice. I'm not rewriting this entire thing for the third time, so just have the initial planning sketch:
I just made something unexpected Something sharp, something new It's not symmetrical or perfect But it's beautiful and it's mine What else can I do?
I grow rows and rows of roses Flor de mayo, by the mile I make perfect, practiced poses So much hides behind my smile What could I do if I just grew what I was feelin' in the moment? What could I do if I just knew it didn't need to be perfect? It just needed to be? And they'd let me be?
A hurricane of jacarandas Strangling figs (big), hanging vines (this is fine) Palma de cera fills the air as I climb And I push through What else can I do?
Can I deliver us a river of sundew? Careful, it's carnivorous, a little just won't do I wanna feel the shiver of something new I'm so sick of pretty, I want something true, don't you?
How far do these roots go down? All I know are the blossoms you grow But it's awesome to see how you rise How far can I rise? Through the roof, to the skies Let's go
A hurricane of jacarandas (woo) Strangling figs (go), hanging vines (grow) Palma de cera fills the air as I climb And I push through What else, what else?
What can you do when you are deeply, madly, truly in the moment? (Seize the moment, keep goin') What can you do when you know who you wanna be is imperfect? But I'll still be okay
I’m comin' through with tabebuia (she's comin' through with that boo-yeah) Making waves (making waves), changing minds (you've changed mine) The way is clearer 'cause you're here, and well I owe this all to you What else can I do? (Show 'em what you can do) What else can I do? (There's nothing you can't do)
What else can I do?
Has anyone heard from the fluffy chicken
i wish you a very auction sale
2, 6, 15? (Omg you changed your username!)
2. What is your favorite snippet of dialogue?
Ahhhhh, this is actually super hard because dialogue is my favorite and I feel like it's sort of my strong suit 🙈 but this is one is a small piece of my fave convo I've written to date (aka the final scene of Bad Luck and a Broken Clock 😅):
“And you’re right. I never thought this would be possible because of, well, that thing. But it occurred to me that if I was going to spend this lifetime with anyone, I wanted it to be you.”
Proud of his explanation, Oz brushed Qrow’s hair out of his face as he waited for his husband to respond. Qrow’s cheeks went bright red, all of his charm and confidence sucked out of him with one well-phrased speech. The huntsman was lovestruck, unable to speak.
“Was my answer to your satisfaction?” Oz teased, admiring his husband’s flustered silence. Payback truly was a bitch.
Qrow’s confidence returned as he cracked a smile, “Such an ass.”
“So I’ve-”
“-been told, I know.”
A laugh rose in Oz’s chest. Qrow knew him too well.
6. What’s the detail you wait on bated breath for readers to notice?
It's not a single detail but I've always hoped someone would notice/point out how the first two parts (part 1, part 2) of our shipping AU are interconnected 😅 we obsessed over making sure the continuity fit and we are definitely the only ones who noticed lol.
15. Share a snippet of your WIP!
Ok, I know I just shared a piece of this scene but I was so proud of the Qrow & Ali interactions and I love them ok? So here, have the next interaction, too 😂
“How does it feel to be a Signal graduate?”
The sudden question snapped Ali out of her thoughts. The girl shrugged, “About the same as it felt to be a Signal fourth year.”
“Yeah, well, it’ll start to feel real when you’re on the airship to Beacon- if you get accepted, that is.”
“Don’t even joke about that.”
“I dunno,” Qrow teased, “I’ve heard the headmaster has some pretty high standards.”
“Apparently his standards aren’t that high if he married you.”
“Alright, smartass, watch it.”
“You literally just made fun of me! If you can’t take it, don’t dish it out.”
