Shepherd Love is a mess ™️
Shepherd is one of my favorite characters in the series, but he is a little bit of a mess. See below.
He knows about magic and…. is part of an online community for it
When he was 18, he got drunk for the first time with a creek dryad who told him her life story.
He owes ‘at least 3 imps his firstborn’
Befriended trolls with bone broth
Midwifed a centaur foal
Helped a unfairy with taxes
Swore on his life he wouldn’t tell about the Snowbaz plus penny thing
Went backpacking with a Sasquatch and gave it his toothbrush
Met a water/river spirit… by introducing himself to it
Used to be a storm chaser now chases Magic because it’s more thrilling
Willingly goes into a vampire lair with not much hope of escaping alive.
Starts to try and tell a vampire named Josh his life story some highlights include: ‘My name is Shepard, I’m from Omaha’ and ‘My parents are divorced, how about you’
Tried to warn Josh the vampire that drinking his blood is a really really bad idea
Promptly kills that vampire when the vampire tried.
‘And I am also slightly… a little bit… cursed’
‘Wrong place, wrong time… a series of miscommunications and cultural differences’
The curse left him ‘well and truly fucked’
He’s now an illegal immigrant
He tried to get help from the curse from a genie
He learned of the curse ritual from ‘some guy I met’
He lost his third born child to a giant for the ritual
The demon he summoned? He actually got engaged to it…
He was not forced to marry it, he asked for its hand… on accident
He has tried to hook up with a fairy
It is highly implied that he has gone home with other creatures
He lost his firstborn child to three imps
Lost his last name by telling it to a fairy.
He got an STD from a merperson, but don’t worry, he’s only a carrier
The curse was labeled invalid because of how much if a wreck he is. See above.
Wayward Son doesn't get the credit it deserves for how chaotic it is.
Penny, Simon, and Baz dropping everything and illegal going to vacation in America with no passports, no money, and not much of a plan.
Baz using "Here Kitty-Kitty" and being forced to kill 9 cats behind a mall.
The three arguing about whether buffalo is beef to see if Penny can eat it (right after she had her heart broken).
They go to a Renn Faire and promptly kill 9 vampires for the world to see, and Simon and Baz make out instead of trying to get away.
Baz wearing flowers basically the entire time.
Them being scared of, out of all things, an overly friendly ex-stormchaser who knows WAY too much for his own good.
Simon SHANKING a goat man.
Shepard knows magickal creatures all across America.
Baz somehow finds a floral suit, and wears it while he gets drunk on the Strip with the Vampire king.
And the final part is a full on GUNFIGHT in the middle of the desert between two vampire factions, and somehow Burning Man helps our main cast out.
It doesn't get the credit for being as chaotically evil as it is.
Rereading some of my favourite parts of the Simon Snow Trilogy by Rainbow Rowell while I wait for my copy of Scattered Showers to arrive ✨
Is almost here, I'm nearly vibrating with excitement ahahah
you don't deserve that blorbo if you have to skinnify them in fanart i'm sorry
I don't think smut scenes are supposed to make you cry but clearly Rainbow Rowell didn't get the memo because "If I want him warm, I have to do it myself" and "I can see him, even when I cant, even with my eyes closed- I know him too well" and "Is this was people do? Get as close as they can and then push closer? Burn each other into every gap? And then what? Then just tomorrow and more?" and "Just kiss me for the sake of kissing me" and "I want my sheets to smell like you" and "Be gentle with me...even though you don't have to" and "Don't say please. Why not? Because you don't have to. I'll give you whatever you want" and "I couldn't break him if I tried. I won't try" and "Is this what he wants? Is this what I'm allowed to take?" and "I was never magic" and "Is this magic? Is this enough?" And now I'm sobbing.
Simon: Baz made me feel things.
Penny: What things?
Simon: Feelings.
Penny: Baz made you feel feelings?
Simon: Yep.
Penny: What a bitch.
Baz: my bloodline ends with me
Penny: that’s a fancy ass way to say you’re gay
Happy Birthday Simon Snow Salisbury 🫡 Welcome to 27!!! I will always love you, thank you for teaching me that life can gets better and to keep trying 🌹
She's stupidly brave—it's the only stupid thing about her.

Women of the Simon Snow Trilogy
Thank you for the support for this collection. I love these women and I’m glad they exist in this awesome trilogy. Ps. Happy Birthday to Any Way The Wind Blows.
Somehow I forgot I did these after finishing Anyway the Wind Blows.... I think I made them to celebrate the end of the Carry On series... Well... they're a bit late for the party but here they are I guess ^^
