September 2023 WOTM: lilyoffandoms

Each month CFWC highlights one of our talented fanfic writers, and this month’s writer of the month is @lilyoffandoms. We hope you will enjoy learning more about them and their work below! The writer is selected at random. More info can be found on the navigation page.

This month's Writer of the Month was selected a little differently than normal. We announced that we would be selecting the WOTM from the participants in last month's Writer Appreciation Event. But the eleven writers involved all agreed the honor belonged to Lily. Lily has been a staple in the Choices community for so long, and they continuously go out of their way to support creators and spread positivity while continuing to inspire and create themselves. We couldn't think of anyone better suited for the honor, so please join us in congratulating Lily... September's Writer of the Month!

Tumblr Blog Name: lilyoffandoms Blog Masterlist

How do you want to be known on Tumblr? Lily is fine (they/them preferred)

1- When did you start playing Choices? What was the first book you played?

Best guess would be back in January of 2018. It was a joke at first since a friend saw one of their god-awful ads and said we should both try it. Next thing you know, we were both arguing over which books were better and regretting our decision to start. Though their opinions on what constitutes good books are almost as bad as the Choices ad that got us to jokingly play (and I say this most lovingly because they are awesome and I love them). I started with Most Wanted, and my friend started with The Freshman.

2- When and why did you join Choices fandom?

Oh gods! I joined back in March 2019. I know I’m a Tumblr baby by most everyone’s standards, but that feels like a really long time. I joined when Open Heart book one was released. I had lurked, reading fanfics, for a few months before biting the bullet and creating a blog and actually posting. Only joined because I was taking my editor’s advice and writing something entirely outside my norm to break a particularly bad case of writer’s block. Thought I might as well share those silly things if I was taking the time to write them. Maybe someone would enjoy them. Never did plan on sticking around, but found so many lovely people that I’ve come to call friends.

3- How did you pick your blog name?

It was lilyofchoices. My name + Choices because I am super creative like that with those sorts of naming things 😅 I changed it to lilyoffandoms when I left the Choices fandom for a bit. I’ve thought about changing it more times than I can count but I can’t bring myself to actually follow through on it. How do y’all’s change your blog name with each new book release? You are a crazy different breed of tumblr and you fascinate me.

4- Pull up the first post in your archive, and tell us about it!

I deleted the first one years ago. It was my first drabble. Currently, as it stands, the first thing in my archive is this post about Desire and Decorum, and it still makes me giggle.

5- How long have you been writing fanfiction?

I’ve only been writing fanfic since I joined Tumblr. I never really tried writing fanfic before that. Some nonfiction personal things before that but never anything like this world. It's been an adventure, to say the least haha

6- What is your favorite Choices book, and what is your favorite Choices book to write about?

My favorite book is probably Blades of Light and Shadow, book one, but there are plenty that are really close behind. This is also the book I’d say I enjoy writing for the most because it is my favorite book, contains my favorite LI, and has one of my favorite OCs (Maiele) in it.

Though recently, I’ve been writing more for Crimes of Passion because it's more of a challenge for me. It's a different vibe between the MC and the LI and it's one I don’t often explore so I’m here for that right now. But I have a sneaky suspicion once Blades 2 drops I’ll be back on my bullshit with that again.

7- Share the first fanfic you wrote with us. Do you still like it, or would you change it if you were writing it today?

I don’t think it exists on this site anymore. Maybe in someone’s reblog? I still have it in my files. It was an Ethan x MC drabble featuring my MC, Merida. I still like it. I’d not change it cuz I’m a firm believer in writing it and don’t look back haha.

This is it:

He swallowed the lump forming in his throat, trying to hold back the tears that were threatening to form in his eyes. There it was. He had told her. Dr. Banerji was dying and Ethan was at a loss as to what was ailing his mentor and friend. Ethan stared at the young woman in front of him and then to the floor. He cleared his throat and made a small motion to turn back into Naveen’s room but froze instantly the moment he noticed her take a step towards him.

She threw her arms around him and hugged him, wishing to take away all of his pain, all of his loneliness. Silently willing him to understand that she cared for him. Cared deeply for him and much more than she should. “Ethan. I’m so sorry,” she whispered, one hand stroked through his hair while the other grasped his neck and slowly bent his head toward her shoulders as she raised herself to her tiptoes to meet him halfway.

He tensed upon feeling her arms around him. Arms, he thought to himself, that he had imagined holding him for a number of weeks now. Ever since that night spent sitting up with her watching little baby Ethan. “Merida,” he sighed as he gradually relaxed into the embrace.

She didn’t let up on the hug, squeezing him to her just a bit more tightly. God, she had wanted to comfort him when Dolores died but she didn’t know how he would respond. Now, he was facing the possibility of another friend dying and she couldn’t help herself.

He responded to the increased pressure of her hug and tightened his own hold upon her. Finding himself tracing circles up her spine and imagining what it would feel like to move his hands to tease along the skin of her back where her pants met her shirt.

Her breath caught when she felt his hands move lower. No longer making gentle movements along her spine but increasing their pressure upon her body, nearly massaging their way lower. She brought one of her own hands around to his chest, lightly bunching his white coat in her fist to try and pull him closer to her.

A loud crash echoed down the hall. “Shit!” a construction worker cursed. The two doctors jumped back from each other both staring into each other’s eyes seeming to question if they had both felt the same in the other’s arms. She blushed slightly. “I should see to my other patients. Dr. Banerji’s condition stays between us. Understand, Rookie?” he stated, his eyes narrowing. She nodded and he turned and marched down the hall.

8- What is your favorite fic that you’ve written?

I love asking this question of others but don’t like it asked of me. I’m so bad at self-rep and advertising my wares 😂 But if I had to pick one, I’d say this one. It was so far outside my comfort zone when it came to writing that I almost abandoned it two paragraphs in. But I’m a stubborn person, and I refused to let it beat me. Plus, I had been wanting to write a noir fic for this book since it was released. Furthermore, I adore Hayden’s work too much not to gift a little something back for all the art he shares with us, so I knew I just had to make it work.

9- Do you have a fic that you didn’t expect to be well received, but it was? What about one you expected to be but found could use a little more love?

I didn’t expect last year’s Luck of the Draw fic to garner much love. Attention? Maybe. But not love and definitely not the response I got. I really enjoyed writing that one.

10- If you could write only angst, fluff, or smut for the rest of your writing life, which would it be and why?

Fluff. I’m a sucker for happy-ever-afters and an endless hopeless romantic. Give me the fluff. All the fluff.

I pull a lot of what I toss into my silly drabbles from real life. Always been a believer in writing, most often what you know, and sprinkle that all with a dash of the stuff you don’t as a treat. And my life is pretty fluffy thanks to my incredible partner.

However, I do so adore angst I’m just not able to write it often because it hurts more to write. But I’ll always always read it. That pain is *chef’s kisses*

11- Do you ever recognize yourself in any of your MCs or in your writing?

Maiele, my Blades MC, is most definitely me coded. His whole personality, his choice of partner when it comes to personality, his constant flirting with said partner, his sense of humor, his lack of a filter most times, it’s all pretty much me. Gabriel, my CoP MC, is me when it comes to romantic gestures and Valentine’s Day. I may be a romantic, but I get weird when it’s aimed at me 😂

12- What element of writing do you struggle with most?

Editing. I refuse to do it. I hate it with the burning light of a thousand suns. Those of you that manage to edit your fics have all my admiration. I honestly don’t know how y’all do it. Doesn’t it just bore you to no end?

13- Do you have any neglected work you really want to finish?

I have more drafts than I care to admit. I would like to complete a series I started long ago for Ethan x Merida, but I don’t know if I’ll ever do that. I’d settle for finishing one of my drafts 😅

14- If someone you know in real life (who isn’t involved in fandoms) asked to read your work, would you let them? If yes, what would you recommend they read first?

Nope, haha, I’d not be able to do that. If I were that brave, I’d recommend this one maybe. I do so love Flynn. Or this one, mostly because I do so love the idea of Gabriel just pouting on the couch.

15 - Are there any writers (published authors and/or fanfic writers) who influenced your writing?

Not really. I mean all of em probably. I read a lot of books in a lot of genres. Mostly I use my drabbles as morning warm ups for my day job.

There are definitely fanfic writers I admire around here that encourage me to share my silly things everyday. Especially all those queer writers out there that have a rather thankless existence sometimes around here but keep sharing their stories! They are all my heroes!!

16- Which one of your stories would you most like to see as a movie/series?

Any and all of my Maiele and Tyril stories. I just love them sooooo much!!

17- Do you write original fiction?

Yes, but until recently, I wrote mostly nonfiction.

I do have a fic I began a few years back when I was still teaching. I had a student who hated their writing class, so I promised to write a short story alongside them and read it to the class like all the students had to if they gave it an honest go.

They did and so I did too, and I was asked the following year to do it again by more students and so I continued the same story. I’ve since continued that same fic, and maybe someday I’ll actually go looking to publish it.

18 - What other hobbies do you have?

I love the outdoors. Hiking, spelunking, kayaking, gardening, camping, anything and everything outdoors. My other favorite hobby, which I've done for years and years, is fencing. I still am part of a club and teach a few levels.

19 - What’s your favorite emoji?

😅 because it’s legit my state of existence at this point in life.

20: BONUS - tell us anything you’d like (if you want to).

I want to send a special shout-out to all the absolutely lovely participants of August’s writer appreciation event I hosted. I still cannot believe y’all did this for me. 😘 These are each of my favorite fics you’ve written. Thank you for making our fandom a little brighter each and every day!

I wish to say thanks to people in our fandom who spread happiness. @storyofmychoices @peonierose @stars-are-within-me @jerzwriter @lilyoffandoms are in my mind, but there are more. I will write their names when I remember.

So many spread negativity and it makes people leave a place they come to have fun. Thank you to the people who remember what the fandom is for.

For Nora and Trystan:

What constitutes as pajamas for them? Does it have to be strictly things meant to be pajamas or just anything comfortable enough to sleep in?

Your character has nothing to do today; they’re staying at home and nobody super important is going to see them. How are they dressed?

Thank you so much for the ask Lily!

What constitutes as pajamas for them?

For Nora, it has to be something comfortable to sleep in and that's the only requirement. Trouble is, her outdoor work-clothes prioritize utility over comfort, so she finds herself stocking up on shirts and tracks (reluctantly ofc, she hasn't prioritized self care in a million years) and old button-downs or tank tops or simply just pajamas lmao. She'd either look like a grandmother who'd chuck a newspaper at you or a Victorian child walking down a long hallway with a gas lamp.

Trystan would more or so agree with the same consensus. He likes the nice practicality and has no shame in investing in good sleepware that doesn't have overly large frills or uncomfortable pockets to keep him up at night, along with the already-ransacking effects of insomnia. I'd like to think he opts for more warmer clothes - hoodies, sweatshirts, full-sleeved sweaters under stripey t-shirts - it is such a whiplash of a difference compared to what he wears during the day; but keeps the nice colours.

Your character has nothing to do today; they’re staying at home and nobody super important is going to see them. How are they dressed?

Nora is going for something like these, minus the shoes because wearing shoes at home is sacrilegious to her) and also most of what she wears can also be considered a 'work outfit' too? Honestly if Nora finds a piece of clothing she can wear at home, at work and run errands with, she is never going to part away with it at all. (Bonus points if it is monochrome so she doesn't have to think too hard to see if the colours go well together.)

Trystan would likely go with something like this:

I'd like to think he drew a lot of inspiration from your typical Boho-style/New York streetwear before he got tired of it, but he still carries this soft spot for clothes with nice, neat patterns. This is the stuff he'd wear on a weekend - on the brink between staying home and going out. He wants to be presentable if someone visits but at the same time, doesn't want to be dealing with swapping out clothes everytime he goes out. Otherwise he's sticking to his pajamas if he doesn't have plans and kind of becomes a chaotic indoor houseplant.

(I hc they're called up in the evening for an emergency case for Mafalda and Nora shows up in like a tracksuit and sweater as if she's been coaching a basketball team and Trystan had just finished saying his hellos in a party, decked out in a silk button-down shirt with waves embroidered on it, and they're both like "what.")

(Bonus: They end up confronting the perpetrator but the perp cannot take them seriously at all, because one looks like he walked straight out of a music festival after-party and one looks like a teacher who is never beating the 'all teachers sleep in the school' allegations)

(Another bonus: They end up kicking ass and taking names anyway, but the perp is still laughing at them even after getting caught)

Thank you so much for the ask Lily!

I was so excited when I received my @choicesfandomappreciation Secret Admirer assignment because I was lucky enough to get @lilyoffandoms!

Lily,

This is nothing I have not shared before, but it bears repeating again: I've been nothing but astounded by your warmth, generosity, and kindness since I joined the fandom two and a half years ago. You were so welcoming, willing to help, and had such a generosity of spirit... you served as an example of what it means to be a good fandom friend, and it helped me find my footing here.

You go out of your way to be kind and supportive of other writers and artists in our little corner of the world. And I know much of your generosity goes unnoticed... because you want it to... and that says so much about who you are. The more I've gotten to know you, the more I like what I find... and that is an unusual occurrence in this world!

Thank you for gracing us with your talent, kindness, humor, and everything that makes you uniquely YOU! And I thank you for your advice, support, and friendship. I hope you stick around here for a long time because it wouldn't be the same without you.

Now, I know we didn't have to create for today's event, but there was no way I was passing up a chance for our girls to have some fun... no way! So, here's a little follow-up to your drabble from earlier this week. I hope it makes you smile, as you've made me smile many times before.

You're the best, Lily! 🩵🩷💜🩵💜🩷🩵🩷💜

🪶 for Emma x Trystan

From this game

He first asks her to move in with him two months after returning home from Drakovia, but she turns him down because it's too soon. The words "have you lost your mind?!" are used. He asks her once a month until she says yes six months later.

A snippet of a fic about this: "If a month with my family didn't send you running for the hills, nothing will. Move in with me."

Thanks for the ask, Lily! 💜

Happy belated birthday to @lilyoffandoms, one of the most talented, generous and supportive people in the fandom!

I hope you had an amazing day, and that this new year ( and the many more to come ) bring you joy, love and success.

I did something inspired by two of your fics that have been living rent free in my mind. I hope you like it!

Happy Birthday, @lilyoffandoms!!!

You are the most lovely, talented, generous, and all around amazing person. I am beyond lucky to have you in my life, as Daenarya is to have Maiele in hers. I hope you enjoy this portrait of our silly besties by the wonderful ArtbyAinna (IG) as well as the little drabble that goes with it. Have the most amazing day! Love you always!

A Royal Portrait

Pairings: Mal Volari x Daenarya (F!MC) ; Tyril Starfury x Maiele (MC) Book: Blades of Light and Shadow Word Count: ~900 Rating: General, no warnings

Synopsis: Daenarya and Maiele pose for a royal portrait.

Mal Volari and Tyril Starfury found themselves in the elegant gardens of the White Tower palace. Rich tapestries and gilded frames adorned the walls of the halls that led them there. The garden itself teemed with vibrantly colored flora and was bathed in warm, beautiful sunlight. Before them stood Daenarya and Maiele, their partners, radiant in their regal attire, posing for a portrait. The air was filled with a sense of nobility, and the room was abuzz with whispers of admiration for the pair's noted accomplishments in saving the realm of light.

A mischievous smile spread on Mal's face as he sprawled across a lavish red velvet chair, one leg hanging over the armrest. He watched Daenarya with unabashed adoration as she hugged close to Maiele, the pair wearing matching grins. His gaze drifted to Tyril, who stood aloof, his stoic demeanor a stark contrast to Mal's own.

As the artist worked diligently, Daenarya and Maiele shared secrets in hushed tones too quiet for anyone to overhear, their laughter echoing through the space. An occasional reminder by the artist to keep still kept them in check.

Mal's eyes sparkled as he tried to decipher their whispers. He was certain he could read lips. He thought he had gotten it down to a science, yet Daeanarya had assured him time and time again he wasn't even close. Whether that was true or she just wanted to keep him guessing, he could never be positively sure. Either way, it wouldn't stop him from trying.

Tyril continued observing in silence, his gaze never leaving Maiele. His face was an unreadable mask, but a faint hint of a smile tugged at the corner of his lips, almost imperceptible to the untrained eye, yet those who knew him were familiar with the sentiment. It hadn't left since the moment Maiele entered his life.

Mal's prolonged audible exhale broke the serene atmosphere. When his sigh didn't get the reaction he intended, he repeated the gesture louder and with a more dramatic flair, pulling the eyes of many in the room, but he was only after one.

"Are you quite alright?" Tyril scowled at his uncivilized behavior.

"Since you asked—" He slipped further into the plush cushioning. "Why do Daenarya and Maiele get a royal painting, and we don't?" he grumbled, his tone laced with playful envy. "We were there too."

"You were given the choice to have a portrait commissioned," Tyril responded, his voice measured and precise, not giving into Mal's tantrum. "However, you chose that ridiculous diamond instead."

Mal held out the gem in question, allowing it to catch the sunlight, scattering it into a dazzling array. "This diamond deserved to be freed, not hidden away in some rich snob's collection. I did it a favor." Mal's smile grew wider as he admired the gem's brilliance. "Leaving it would have been a disservice to such a precious treasure." He hugged and petted the stone as if it were a cherished pet.

Tyril's attempt to hide his frustration failed, a subtle crease forming between his brows that betrayed him. "I hope you plan to give that to Daenarya." His tone was firm as their gazes met in shared understanding. "She's far too good for a rogue like you."

Mal's shoulders slumped in feigned defeat. "Yeah, I know," he admitted, his eyes shining as he glanced toward her. "Perhaps I could have the diamond split in half. This way she and I can have matching stones. I get a piece, and so does she. That's romantic, right?"

Tyril's patience waned with each passing moment. "I hope for your sake that was in jest."

"So, that would be a no on the romance angle?"

A quiet exhale slipped from the elf's lips, betraying his diplomatic presence. His focus returned to the subjects of the royal portrait. His muscles relaxed as his gaze once more settled on Maiele, who continued to whisper and giggle along with Daenarya.

"Wait—" Mal interrupted the elf's thoughts again. "Why aren't you getting a portrait?" A mischievous glint sparkled in his eyes; his lips spread into a sly grin. "Did you take a gem too?"

Tyril's stoic countenance faltered as it only could in the rogue's presence. His brows knit together, and he regarded Mal incredulously before composing himself. "Certainly not. I have little need for glittering trinkets or having my portrait hung in a palace to collect dust." Despite being of a noble house himself, Tyril found the concept of ostentatious displays of wealth and vanity tiresome.

"So your portrait isn't hanging triumphantly in House Starfury at this very moment?" Mal wagged his brow at Tyril.

"If such a portrait were to hang, it would be at the request of Maiele supported by Adrina," Tyril explained, the slightest purple hue flushed on his cheeks. "I protested profusely."

"He is something, isn't he," Mal mused, his attention shifting back to the subjects of the current portrait. "They both are."

"Indeed." With one word, Tyril said so much more. The admiration in his tone and the pride filling his eyes spoke volumes.

"Perhaps they're both too good for us," Mal quipped.

"Just this once, you may be correct." Tyril couldn't stop the smile spreading on his lips as Maiele's gaze met his.

The pair settled into silence, watching as Daenarya and Maiele continued to share secrets and laughter, their close bond on display even from a distance. The artist's strokes captured their essence, freezing a moment of their shared happiness and devoted friendship for all eternity.

Thank you so much for reading! I hope you enjoyed this!

8, 28, and 89 for the oc relationship ask thingy for Nora x Trystan

oc relationship asks masterlist

8. Who is the big spoon? Little spoon?

Honestly it is tough to tell because they're qualified for both lmao. Trystan is def the kind of person to just run up to someone and envelope them into a hug from behind and Nora's the shoulder-lender for all those long naps in the car or during a boring meeting, any situation where naps are possible.

28. Do they trust one another? Are comfortable discussing their fears with one another?

oh my goood this is literally them during the first book. Trystan was such an open flirt but he was still quite wary, with the whole 'the law enforcement is so quick to pin the crime on him at any given moment' reason. Nora was equally wary because Trystan was suspect number one on her list. I know, not very bright of her, but she had her reasons to suspect him. Everything changes when Trystan gets stabbed and tells Nora he did it for her, when Nora held him in her arms, him watching her go full John Wick on the masked assiliant. It was then they actually learned they could trust each other and can have each other's back - not only during cases where it mutually benefits them, but outside of work too.

It took them not long enough to talk about their fears. In fact, they were more motivated to let go of any assumptions they might have about each other. It was all about lending a hand to the other, to help them reach out and get back on their feet.

89. Would they ever consider marriage?

Honestly I don't think so. Not because they aren't willing to commit, rather they just find the concept of marriage overused and tiresome. To them, it doesn't make sense to have all that pomp & circumstance for like, a ring, a certificate and a somewhat 'proof'. I guess they'd date and have a more serious relationship, but won't call it marriage. However, they'd definitely get fake-married for funsies, to infilitrate cruise ships and doughnut shops.

I guess their opinion is just "eh, it is something all right". They acknowledge it. It isn't really suited for them. They're more than happy to just live together and make most of their time in each other's company, as opposed to like, worrying about what their future might look like.

Thanks for the ask, Lily!

A Unique Blend

There is only one thing I love as much as the Ethan/Tobias bromance, and that is this adorable rendition of that bromance by the incredibly talented @bayleedrawsx !

Thank you so much to @lilyoffandoms for holding a contest where I was lucky enough to win this! Lily and Baylee are both gems in our little community, and I'm so grateful to both!

I wrote a little ficlet to accompany this, I hope you enjoy it!

Title/Book: A Unique Blend / Open Heart (Post Series) Characters: Ethan Ramsey / Tobias Carrick Words: 702 Rating: Teen Summary: Tobias insists he's found a coffee that tops Derry's, but Ethan isn't buying it.

Ethan sat at his desk, carefully removing the cup of coffee Tobias brought him from the crumbled brown paper bag. Carefully removing the lid, he examined the contents as he slowly stirred. He was about to lift the bitter brew to his nose for a whiff when he spotted his friend staring at him with a mocking glare.

“Can I help you?” Ethan barked.

Tobias chuckled and reclined further back in his seat. He crossed his legs casually; his signature smirk adorned his lips as he made a show of taking an exaggerated gulp of his brew.

“You see, my friend, that’s how you’re supposed to drink coffee. Not this nonsense you have going on. What is this sniffing crap? It’s a paper cup, not a brandy snifter!”

“Mock if you will! But if you expect me to determine if this swill is the equivalent of Derry’s, it will take more than scoffing it down like an animal to make that determination.”

“Oh, come on, Ethan,” he laughed. “Just take a sip. Knowing you, you’ll dismiss it as… what was it, swill… instantly, then you can spare us both the rest of this pretentious little show. Unless… you’re worried that I’m right and this place is better than your beloved Derry’s.”

“Doubtful,” Ethan scoffed.

“Then drink the damn thing. It’s getting cold. It’s quality coffee. Not only quality coffee, free quality coffee, thanks to me!”

“Hmm… in that case, I should be inspecting to see if it's been laced with a laxative.”

“For crying out loud, Ethan, I’m not going to do that. Maybe five years ago, if you had an important meeting or date to get to, sure, I may have considered it, but not now… Nah.”

Ethan twisted his lips in disgust. He wasn’t certain if his best friend again was serious, not that it really mattered. What did matter was not letting Tobias one-up him in the coffee stakes.

Tobias rolled his eyes as Ethan stubbornly rose the cup to his nose and inhaled. He couldn’t hide his shock. It was a lovely, aromatic blend. Further, Kaycee had already been to the new shop with Tobias, and she reported that the coffee was indeed top-notch. But did she think it was better than Derry’s?

“For the love of all that is holy, Ramsey. Would you drink the damn coffee?”

Ethan took the cup to his lips, his brow raised at the first sip… it wasn’t bad. He took another, longer drink, and he closed his eyes. Shutting out all distractions… especially Tobias… so he could properly enjoy the experience as the flavorful liquid warmed him. When he opened his eyes, his best friend stared at him with a shit-eating grin.

“I’ve seen that smile before! So, at least as good as Derry’s, eh?” he smiled.

“We’re late for our meeting,” Ethan deflected and walked toward the door, “Let’s go.”

The two friends made their way down the hospital corridor side by side, but few words were spoken as they sipped their delicious treats.

“It may be good,” Ramsey finally confessed, “but I’m still the connoisseur, not you. I was the one who stayed behind to drink Kona in Hawaii while you were off engaged in who knows what kind of pedestrian activity.”

“Mmm. I was off at the beach, boogie-boarding and having the time of my life because I was in Hawaii. Oh,” he smirked, raising his coffee for another sip. “And I was with your girlfriend to boot.”

He laughed silently as he watched his friend's jaw clench. He was too easy.

“Relax! Relax, buddy! I love Kaycee, but not in that way. And, even if I did, that woman has eyes for no one but you.”

He watched as his friend's cheeks turned a light shade of red, knowing that had nothing to do with the coffee’s temperature.

“I question her judgment at times,” Ethan whispered, “but I think you’re right.”

“You’re a lucky man,” Tobias said, patting his friend's back. “Maybe I’ll get lucky and meet someone that amazing who adores me like that someday.”

“Yeah, well, not in this universe, buddy. Maybe in another, but not in this one. But I’ll admit….”

“What’s that, buddy?”

“This coffee kicks Derry’s ass.”
