no problem! these are such interesting dynamics, and i'm so excited to see how they'll play out! it's so cool to see how fire and ice developed, too. i remember seeing the snippets of the au, but now to see it developed into a main is unreal!

add me to your taglist if you have one please <3

ahhh it’s been a while! how are you and your wip’s? i need an update haha :)

Hey again!

I'll bring this over here. I'm sorry you had to move twice! I hope everything is settled now for you and you can relax. Glad you could be productive even during that time period though! All my respect for that for real.

Now for your questions about my current WIP... So Fire and Ice at first was the AU of Shadow and Whisper but now it actually stole the place of the original story so it is the main WIP now.

I just made the intro post for here so you can find everything related here.

"STOP. RAY DIED TWICE?? so many deaths and broken relationships- that will definitely do a number on you. i'm excited to see how these wounds take on, either by developing or by the ocs getting over the trauma. it's always interesting to see characters who struggle to get over another's death: there's that kind of conflict or tension between their other relationships created that really makes the development worth it!

it's so interesting to see Ray grapple with being a leader (essentially getting her shit together) and dealing with her loss. especially if she feels like she's replaced him in a way when he died for her! this combination of emotions definitely will send anyone spiraling. ahhhhh wait now i want to read this! if you ever have a snippet of ray unable to figure out her emotions (or letting it get the best of her) please send it my way!

KEIN. THE TORTURED HERO. and his wife had to die to???

WHYYYYY"

Yes, Ray died twice and then some... I mean, some couple of times almost. And yes, Kein's wife also died, just like Ray's partner. The worst part of their situation is that Ray looks nearly entirely like Kein's late wife and Kein is the dead ringer of Ray's dead boyfriend. When they meet, both still deep in the agony of their mourning, seeing each other is like salt to their wounds.

On the other hand, they share very similar struggles even besides the loss of their partners. Kein's wife was a queen and so he was king but when she died, he gave up his crown. He said it was temporary but now he has to face the consequences of that decision. Meanwhile, Ray is struggling with the responsibility of being a queen without title, being a leader, taking over someone who's spent their whole life getting ready for the role of a leader.

It's all a mess for both of them and they deal (or don't) in different ways. Kein drinks a lot, loses his way. Ray stops talking and basically puts her life to learn everything her partner knew so she could make his death not be in vain.

It's all a mess and you're right, this gives such opportunity for character development in so many ways, one of the reasons why I love putting them through so much.

Thank you for asking!!!!

ahhh here's a little snippet of my upcoming wip:

“I’m sure they are,” my mother says, pulling me towards her. “And I’m sure they’re looking for you—desperately.” But I knew: they weren’t. If I went this long without a peep of someone searching for me, they either gave up hope or died.

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT

TRICK OR TREAT

Hi Ave I am TREATING you to this little baby micro-playlist for Poco a Poco! Two things about it: There are some repeats because in some cases I preferred a certain recording where there was no video but I wanted a visual reference. A few selections were also included because of my experience with them; I played Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 (literally what cellist hasn't) and the Haydn concerto in high school! Ironically enough, I like all of the pieces I didn't play more :)

trick or treat 🎃

aw thank you! i'm so glad you like the sound of it

you get a treat for being so very kind!

a worldbuilding detail in forget me not that i have recently decided on is that there are no cemeteries in the Valley, because they believe that to bury the dead creates a risk of them coming back as ghosts
