✨Well well well, one year since my book was published!!✨ 
I don’t talk about it a lot cos once a project is done, I kind of move on and forget about it. But that’s silly of me, as I’m supposed to be telling you all about how it’s very much out there and available online and in bookshops - it’s about a tech billionaire who tries to take over the world, and it contains as many jokes as I could humanly stuff into 400 pages. I’m really proud of it and if you enjoy my work on here at all, I would LOVE it you read it! 
It was really hard - took me all of 2020 and 2021, all of age 29 and age 30. I really enjoyed the first few months when I was coming up with the ideas, and also the last 2 days of it, when I knew it was nearly done. I remember thinking “Ooh, how idyllic! Look at me, drawing my comic book! What a life!”
Much has changed for me since. I fell in love a couple of times, including with the nation of Brazil. I got really sick and lost half my hair. Went to Comic Con and felt like a princess. Moved to Lisbon. Started yoga. Spent a lot of money, enjoyed it, then worried about it. After the worst birthday of my life (30, high lockdown) I had the greatest birthday of my life (32, Berlin). Read four 900-page books, spent longer scrolling. Published some comics I’m really proud of. Decided to try to be more honest.
Thanks again and massive respect to my brilliant collaborators and pals Paul Martinovic and Nicola Barr who contributed so much to this project, as well as Picador and Dark Horse Comics 🙏 and thanks to the ledge Lucy Mattot for the photo.
That’s it! Felt like making a fuss and giving you all an update, in case you’re interested. Please buy my funny book ❤️❤️❤️ luv you ❤️❤️❤️

NOTCYX WITH A FAMOUS VTUBER S/O
FULGUR
. best believe that he would be your BIGGEST fan
. tries to show up to your streams if they do not overlap with his own schedule
. he does not get jealous over the amount the simps you have
. okay maybe he does
. but he’ll never admit it and that jealousy is just a tiny bit (cap)
. if you have any original songs, fulgur would cover them in any of his karaoke streams
. as he sings, he’ll say things like “god [name]’s voice is attractive!”
. the two of you collab a lot
. a lot of multiplayer games
. let’s say you like donghua (u better like it, THEY ARE SO GOOD), you two will have a long marathon of watching an entire series with your viewers
. your simps will fight fulgur
. because fulgur likes to post comments that claim you to be his etc. etc. , your fans will immediately retaliate by saying “WE KNEW [NAME] FIRST! STAY AWAY!!!!!”
. don’t worry, your fans still loves your relationship
. fulgur definitely boasts about having a famous partner
. sorry uki (not)
UKI
. SPEAK OF THE DEVIL
. oh god, this man is your biggest simp
. i’m seriously not kidding
. any merch you have, he will purchase without hesitation

. i believe that he would have been through everything with you
. from you having your first stream to you creating your first song and now, you’re literally the most well-known vtuber in the industry
. suuuuuuper supportive
. if you are doing long streams, he’ll come in with food and water for you
. although uki has a large harem, he could not compare to yours
. now instead of your fans fighting uki, it’s uki fighting your fans
. he will take them on
. “back off. [name] is MY s/o, not yours. they go to bed with ME. y’all don’t stand a chance.”
. GO UKI GO
YUGO

. major stress
. tbh, this man will literally fanboy over you
. even on stream
. whatever you do is just so cute to him
. “hey [name], can you say ‘o mizu’ real quick?”
. you do it and both yugo and your respective viewers immediately get a nosebleed
. “TSKR [NAMEEEEE]!!!!!”
. speaking of collabs, the amount of musical collabs y’all do is unbelievable
. you two could have finished a song together one day the NEXT FUCKING WEEK, a new song is ready to be released
. is that even humanly possible?
. yugo will not fight your fans but he will wreck your haters
. having a fanbase so big, it’s only natural if there are a few people that just don’t like you

. subscribed to your membership and uses the emojis really randomly
. it’s really cute tho

ALBAN
. CATBOYYYY
. he gets sooooo hyped up when y’all collaborate together
. minutes before you two call, alban is rambling to chat about how nervous he is but also how exciting this is

. sometimes, you have to remind him to chill because YALL ARE LITERALLY DATING
. but he can’t help you
. looks up to you A LOT
. also, he gets really jealous of your simps and would post comments on your streams stating “[name] is taken by alban knox”

. shows you off to his genmates
. streams any and every song that you have released
. he also loves to sing your songs on stream
. definitely hums the tune when he’s doing something
. he knows that streaming can be tiring sometimes and would often check up on you

. you question if they are starting to simp for him
. y’all have actually decided to adopt the chat as your children
. it’s one heck of a family
. good luck with the kids

Untouchable, right?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
words: 731 a/n: hope this is what u guys wanted aha i worked hard 😭 lee: 2hwang ler: SKZITZY taglist: @someone-who-loves-kpop-saranghae @jeonginsdiary @leeknowstan33 @v--143 @wereallgonnadieonedaybutnottoday @inkytornpages @lajanaa @a-wild-seungberry this fic is about tickling, if it's not your cup of tea pls scroll!~
Tumblr media
“Hi!” Changbin greeted, bouncing over to Chaeryeong and hitting her playfully in the arm. 
“AGH-Hello, Changbin.” She giggled, watching all the members greet each other formally before giggling together and catching up. 
“So, we’re here to do the dance challenge together, right?” Yeji clarified, letting out some satisfied giggles as the entire room nodded in agreement. 
“I’M UnToUcHaBlE!” Jeongin squealed, running over to Yuna, both of them screaming the lyrics to ‘Maknae on Top.’
“Okay, okay, let’s all listen to Yeji, seriously.” Chan laughed at the chaos, winking at the leader of the girl group in the process. 
After some learning and practicing, the group decided to take a break, chaos ensued as normal. 
Ryujin cackled as she and Felix harassed a poor Seungmin by screaming ridiculous threats in a deep voice. 
Yeji and Hyunjin entertained the rest of the group by performing their collaboration stage with dramatic, over-energetic movements, allowing loud laughter to fill the room with an aura of joy. 
Changbin and Chaeryeong were challenging each other to a girl group dance challenge, which Changbin won because Chaeryeong stopped in the middle of ‘Queencard’ to try and slap his butt, which Minho certainly supported. 
In the end, they began to film their dance challenge, which resulted in a little more disorder than what was expected. 
Ryujin and Minho had shared a brain cell by both tasered Yeji and Hyunjin’s side during the dance, as they were in the front. 
Two identical, loud squeals echoed through the room, and it was silent for 3 seconds as the two main dancers rubbed at their sides, eyes wide with fear. 
Then there was a scramble, group splitting into two to try and capture the Hwang siblings. 
Yeji screamed as the entirely of the hyung line chased her down, Ryujin cackling evilly in the middle as the poor leader was pinned down, made to be basically immobile. 
Ryujin seated herself on Yeji’s thighs, laughing at the loud begging that escaped the girl’s lips as Jisung added his wrists to the three pairs holding her arms above her head. 
Meanwhile, Hyunjin was immediately yanked down to the floor, Felix and Jeongin struggling to hold the thrashing boy down. 
Oh, Hyunjin knew what was coming, and he was not looking forward to it.  
“No! Nonono please, Ryujinnie! No need to tickle me, just let me g-OHOHO NOHOHO!” Yeji squealed, Ryujin’s fingers attacking her sensitive ribs. 
“NOHOHO! NOHOT THEHEHERE PLEHEHEHEASE!”
The others were working on reducing Hyunjin into an incoherent mess, loud screams echoed through the room as both the main dancers were tickled mercilessly. 
“YUHUNA NOHOHO!” Hyunjin screamed when the maknae stuck her hand into his armpits, massaging slowly with her thumb and driving the boy underneath her insane. 
“RYUJIN! RYUHUHUJIN! THAT TIHIHICKLES!” Yeji spat out through her loud hysterics, voice growing desperate. 
She screamed even louder as the other four boys joined in tentatively, wiggling their fingers anywhere they could reach but making sure to respect her boundaries. 
Nearby, Yuna and Chaeryeong were making sure to do the same, minding Hyunjin’s hips and making sure they didn’t make the boy uncomfortable in any way. 
Loud, but joyous laughter filled the room, Yeji and Hyunjin’s cackles sounded somewhat identical, so it was equally entertaining for every person in the room. 
“Wow, they sound really similar!” Chan commented, smirking at Minho as the boy formulated a very evil plan. 
“Wonder if they’d sound the same if we blew raspberries at the same time? Ooh, what an experiment! What’s your hypothesis, guys?~” Minho teased, watching the dancers turn bright red through their laughter. 
“NO! NOHOHO IHITS TOOHO MUUHUCH!” Yeji whimpered, throwing herself back into hysterics when Ryujin’s fingers attacked her armpits next. 
“Well, too bad.” Came Felix’s voice from Hyunjin’s stomach, blowing ticklish air into the boy’s belly button. 
Ryujin’s lips attached to the same spot, easily accessible due to the crop top the leader was wearing. 
“ENOHOHOHOUGH! ENOUGH PLEHEHEHEASE!” Yeji squeaked out, laughter cutting out slightly, making her voice sound quieter. 
“IT’S SOHOHOHO BAHAHAHAD! GUHUHUYS! GIHIHIRLS PLEHEASE STOHOHOP!” Hyunjin twisted around crazily, however the four pairs of arms holding him down made the task practically pointless.
Loud, boisterous laughter and squeals filled the room, both dancers bucking up crazily and begging for the torture to stop. 
Finally, the members let up, watching Yeji and Hyunjin’s bodies go weak from exhaustion. 
“Guess you aren’t so untouchable, huh?”

So I have a thousand son, best thing that has happened to me, but my neighbor has a small pack of space wolves and I’m worried they will eventually fight. Is there any preventative action I can take?
Ooh this one is tricky. I would recommend collaborating with your neighbor on routines and schedules. Take care that your marines spend as little time as possible around each other! Thousand Sons do NOT get along with Space Wolves, and I have rarely seen a meeting that didn't eventually turn violent.
There ARE loopholes though! Space Wolves have an adorably brief short term memory, and very little object permanence. In a span of about three to seven days, those lovely Wolves likely won't remember ever encountering your Thousand Son, and are thus returned to square one!
The opposite is true for the Thousand Son, however. They have a frightening memory, and the trick to avoiding outbursts is--as much as it pains me to say--propaganda. Enforce in your Thousand Son that Space Wolves are beneath them (they aren't!!!) and that by interacting with them at all, even in thought, the Thousand Son are put at risk for corruption and mange.
Combined with coordinated, controlled distance, things should be kept civil. Hope this helps!

omg can I have an angsty prompt request...post-breakup piarles, reuniting after x years, realizing the feelings are still there...and maybe its not too late...hehe 😋
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
It’s been about two years since Pierre took off his ring for the last time.
He’d done it before then plenty, of course—nothing aggravates an argument with the perfect mirror of yourself quite the same as a grand gesture like that, tugging off an engagement band and leaving it on the counter before storming out. But two years ago, things had just…come to a head. Pierre loved Charles, he did, but keeping up with him had become too much work. Life outside of racing had gotten very big very quickly for him, and there’s only so much a person can do in the shadow of their partner before things get testy.
And when you’re engaged to your lifelong best friend, sometimes testy is just the final straw. Charles had been in the middle of one of his big Ferrari collaborative projects, spending more nights in Maranello than at their shared flat in Monaco, and Pierre fell asleep alone in bed once again with the ache of not being enough.
So he’d left. Took the ring off, wrote Charles a little apology, and packed the things he was confident were his before disappearing into the cool November night. He’d changed both of his phone numbers a few days later when Charles started blowing his phone up with messages and voicemails. And then he’d gone off the grid entirely.
I love you, but I cannot do this anymore. That’s what he’d said. Two years later, sitting in the dining lounge at LVMH headquarters, he thinks it’s probably the right call. He no longer feels like a WAG working under his own collaborative brand with the company’s latest popstar ambassador whose name he doesn’t even really recognize. She’s nice, at least—Pierre is waiting for her now, actually, so that they can walk through the latest scheduling draft for the upcoming Winter show. He’s still not fully involved in the behind-the-scenes work, but if he can figure out something splashy to present at the next meeting, he's convinced that he’ll—
“Pierrot?” A familiar voice breaks through his thoughts, coming from somewhere to his right. Pierre turns.
And then his stomach drops, because standing before him is Charles Leclerc—ex-fiance, former best friend, the love of his life once upon a time, standing there with a bag hanging off his shoulder and his sunglasses slipping down the bridge of his nose. Part of Pierre instinctively wants to fix it, either push them gently back where they belong on his face or pull them off and carefully tuck them into the vee of his shirt.
He does neither.
“Charles,” he greets instead, pushing back in his chair casually. He’s not going to get up, he’s not. It’s not like Charles is there for him, after all. “What are you doing here?” He pauses, then realizes how rude it must’ve sounded to just blatantly ask why he’s in Pierre’s workplace. “How have you been?”
Charles, to his credit, doesn’t seem to notice. His eyes are lit-up, sparkling the way they always used to when they were together on the track. “I’m good,” he says as he takes a few steps closer to be within proper conversational range. “Ferrari is exploring potential luxury brand partnerships, and since I was already in Paris…” he shrugs. “Just looking, is all.”
Ferrari. Pierre hasn’t followed along close enough with their old sport for quite some time, but the name still makes him grimace. All the time that team had sucked away from him—from them—the thought still makes him bitter enough to taste it. “I see,” he hums in reply, picking up his little espresso cup and sipping at it. Charles just keeps looking at him, though: like he’s curious. “I have been working here alongside some of the lead designers of the season.”
Charles oohs softly. Pierre hates that he can tell it’s genuine even after all this time apart. “They found the perfect model,” he murmurs, a small smile playing on his face. “I’m happy they have you, Pierrot.” He looks like he wants to say more for a moment—it’s been two years and Pierre hasn’t really thought about his almost-marriage for longer than a day at a time, but suddenly having Charles right back in his space is crumbling the foundations of his new life like they’re made of plaster. “How have you been?”
“Good,” is the immediate answer that comes out of his mouth. It’s not entirely false, really, but…Pierre can’t help how his eyes trail up and down Charles’ body, how they catch at the silver chain hanging around his neck. The top button of his shirt is undone, revealing the faint little patch of chest hair that Pierre used to tease him about when they were younger. Nestled in it is…
Is the engagement band Pierre bought him all those years ago. Pierre’s gaze darts to his left hand instinctively. He swallows when he sees it ringless in the places that matter. The sight of the gaudy golden ring against his still-pale chest flings Pierre back in time, when he’d first slipped it on Charles’ trembling hand and whispered be mine forever? Charles had promised him, then, that he would—the memory makes him feel nauseous. Forever had felt like a long time when Pierre had weighed his options before leaving—a long time to be waiting in the wings, a long time to be a love of Charles’ and not the love.
And yet, the last two years without him has felt like a lifetime in the most agonizing of ways. He’s reminded of that yet again with the sight before him: Charles still wears the ring around his neck, and Pierre has his tucked away in the drawer beside his bed, folded in one of Charles’ old bandanas he’d stumbled upon after moving out. It’s silly. It’s devastating. The love Pierre had spent so long packing away in moving boxes is starting to leak out at the bottom.
“Charlie,” he says softly after a long moment, gesturing to the empty seat across from him, “come join me for lunch.” Charles just looks at him, blinking his sweet, slow, cat-like blink until Pierre gestures again, more earnest than before. “Please, mon cheri. It has been so long.”
After another long, breathless moment, Charles’ face softens even further. He pulls out the chair across from Pierre and sinks into it. “It has,” he says quietly. “Pierrot, it has.”

A/N: Well, sadly we have reached the end of this story. I’ve enjoyed writing this fic so much and have loved your enthusiastic appreciation. Farewell to Fireman Deeks.
***
The Agent and the Fireman, Epilogue
The next morning, Deeks woke to an empty bed; the side where Kensi had slept was still rumpled, and when he touched the sheets, they felt slightly warm. He’d kind of expected as much, but he’d hope it would be different. Dropping his head back on the pillow, he pinched the bridge of his nose, closing his eyes, bitterness overwhelming the euphoria of last night.
“Your bathroom is so much nicer than mine.”
His eyes sprang open at the sound of Kensi’s voice, and he turned to see her coming out of the bathroom, dressed in the shirt he’d worn last night. He stared at her in mild disbelief.
“You stayed?” he whispered before he could stop himself. Kensi laughed, giving him a curious look.
“Yeah. Did you want me to leave?”
“No, of course not. Last night was—”
“Amazing,” Kensi filled in for him with a knowing grin.
“It was,” Deeks agreed softly. He shrugged, feeling unusually vulnerable. “It just hasn’t always been my experience that the relationship continues after this point.”
Kensi slid onto the bed next to him, gripping his chin between her forefinger and thumb. There was an almost protective look in her eyes. “Well, then I guess I’m not like those other women, because you’re not getting rid of me that easy.” Then, curling her fingers into his hair, she kissed him, pressing him down into the bed. When she pulled away, a smile tugged at her lips. “Now what does a girl have to do to get some food around here?”
***
11 Months Later
“Hey Kensi, your fireman is waiting outside,” Callen informed Kensi as he strolled into the mission.
“Ooh, we have dinner reservations at 7. Can you go tell him I’ll be right out while I go change?” Kensi requested, grabbing a bag from beside her desk.
“Since when did I become your answering service?”
“Callen, please?”
“Fine, but I expect to be tipped,” Callen said flippantly.
“I’m still not sure how I feel about Deeks knowing the location of our headquarters,” Sam commented. “No offense to him, but this is supposed to be a covert operation.”
“With how much we’ve had to collaborate on cases, he might as well be,” Nell pointed out with a sly glance in Kensi’s direction. “It’s amazing that he always seems to be on-call when we need the LAFD.”
“I can’t help it that we have so many fire related incidents,” Kensi said with an innocent shrug.”
When she made it to the parking lot, Deeks leaned against the hood of his truck, facing away from her.
“Did someone call the fire department? Because I see a smoke show,” she said, wrapping her arms around Deeks’ back, kissing the side of his neck.
Deeks turned, arms falling around her waist, head tilted back as he laughed. “Oh my god, that’s terrible. I love it.” He glanced her over, his eyebrows raising in appreciation. “Speaking of smoke shows.”
“You ready to go?”
“Always,” he told her, dipping her back to kiss her.
***
A/N: Hope you liked it!

The recent Times article on Mark & Ian
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/mark-gatiss-and-ian-hallard-i-asked-him-to-marry-me-the-afternoon-we-met-339v55jw2
The article is behind a paywall but I still had some access so here you all are!
Mark Gatiss & Ian Hallard: ‘I proposed on the afternoon we met.’
The League of Gentleman star and his actor husband on dating at the dawn of the internet and coming out to their parents.
Mark
Ian and I met online back in 1999, long before Grindr, when online dating still had a certain stigma attached to it. “Poor you! You can’t find anyone in the real world, so you have to go scrabbling around on the internet.” I didn’t tell my family how we’d met for several years.
You also have to remember that gay men didn’t necessarily go on dates in search of eternal happiness. Dates were fun and exciting. So, when we met in the glamorous surroundings of Finsbury Park Tube station and went back to my flat, I didn’t think it was anything serious. But it was. Ian loves to tell people that I asked him to marry me that afternoon. With hindsight I think I was probably joking, but I certainly had high hopes: “Maybe he’s ‘the one’.”
Having said that, it did take a while to get used to the idea of being a couple. All my previous relationships had sort of … fizzled out. With Ian it was the opposite; we seemed to grow closer and closer. We’ve even collaborated on several projects and I’m directing his first play at the moment [the Abba-inspired The Way Old Friends Do, which Ian wrote and stars in], but there’s never been any sense of rivalry. We get asked if it’s difficult living and working together, but why would it be a problem to spend time with the person you love?
I grew up in a working-class town near Durham, my dad worked at the pit. Telling people you were gay in that situation wasn’t easy. I came out to my friends when I was 15 and there were a few comments at school, but I was never bullied. The real problem for me in the Seventies and early Eighties was that I had no idea what to do about being gay.
Apart from the occasional storyline in [the drama series] Play for Today, the only gay men on TV were John Inman and Larry Grayson. I play Larry in the new TV drama Nolly [about Noele Gordon, a star of the soap Crossroads] and understand why John and Larry were regarded as torchbearers. But some gay activists in the Seventies saw them as the enemy: screamingly gay, but at the same time a sort of neutered Saturday-night camp.
Somehow I managed to put off telling my parents to the point where my mam was the one who brought it up. I was home from university and she simply asked me. It was a huge relief. I said, “Hadn’t we better tell Dad?” Mam looked at me. “Oh no! It’ll kill him.” So we didn’t.
A couple of weeks later I was talking to Mam on the phone and she said, “I told your dad. Ooh, we had some snow overnight.” Initially I thought that had saved me from having to talk to him about it, but it had just been popped at the back of a drawer.
Dad struggled at first, but considering his background it could have been a lot worse. Although it was a bit awkward when he met Ian, we never had “issues”. Sadly we lost him in 2021. The weird thing is that as he got older he became much more tolerant. Even after he lost Mam — his loneliness seemed to soothe his prejudices. He understood that love is where it falls.
It sounds like a complete cliché to say, “We make each other laugh all the time,” but it’s absolutely true. Our shared sense of humour has become the glue that has bonded us. Ian’s definitely more together than me when it comes to admin, and I’m pretty sure he did most of the organising when we had our civil partnership in 2008. The main problem is that, left to our own devices, we can be as bad as each other. We make all these grand plans, then we decide to take Bob [the labrador] for a walk instead.
Ian and I did have a brief period of broodiness, then we quickly realised that neither of us was responsible enough, so we got a dog. The ideal scenario would be that a fully formed, well-educated, extremely polite grown-up knocks on our door and declares that they are the fruit of my overeager teenage loins. We get to be parents without the hard work!
Tumblr media
The couple in 1999, the year they met
Ian
Remember when Stelios from easyJet started his internet cafés? Without Stelios I wouldn’t have met Mark. I didn’t have the internet at my flat in London, so I would go to a Stelios café every day to check emails and log on to gay.com. Back then online dating didn’t involve pictures; it was just messages and a phone call. When Mark and I finally clapped eyes on each other, there was that awful moment of tension, trying to decide if we fancied each other. If not, I guess we would have headed off on our separate ways.
Mark was only the second man I’d made contact with online and the first one I’d met. I did sort of recognise him because The League of Gentlemen had been on telly, but I hadn’t actually seen it. That was probably a good thing. Had I been a massive fan, I’m not sure things would have worked out.
Mark’s career has taken a different trajectory to mine. He has been involved in a lot of high-profile projects and around the time of Sherlock [Gatiss was co-creator, co-writer and appeared as Holmes’s brother, Mycroft] things did go a bit crazy. That one-sided success can cause havoc in a relationship, especially with actors — lots of arguments and jealousy. Some relationships seem to thrive on that constant drama. Not us! I’ve never seen Mark have an argument with anyone. He’s unfailingly polite to the point of diffidence.
I hit my teens when TV was full of adverts about Aids — huge icebergs, tombstones. My parents were your typical easy-going, middle-class Brummies. There was no hint of homophobia but, in that climate, you can see why they might be concerned about having a gay son. What kind of future did I have? I was either going to die of Aids or kill myself out of loneliness and depression.
When I eventually told them I’d met someone and talked about bringing him home to meet them, they were very happy. I told them he was in this fantastic programme called The League of Gentlemen and proudly told them it had won a Bafta. Unfortunately they decided to watch it. They saw this collection of psychopaths and monsters and thought, “What’s he got himself involved with? Is it a cult?” Mum rang me up and said, “Please tell me it’s not him who plays that weirdo Mickey.” I paused for a second and then said, “Yes, Mum, that’s the man I’m going to marry.”
The Way Old Friends Do, Lyceum, Sheffield, Tue-Sat; Park Theatre, London N4, Mar 15-Apr 15; and touring until Jun 10; thewayoldfriendsdo.com
Strange habits
Mark on Ian
He’s incapable of keeping his side of the bed tidy. I call his pile of dirty clothes “the Bedroom Monster”
Ian on Mark
He worries about us travelling in the same car in case something happens to us both and Bob becomes an orphan

Tidbit Tuesday

This is a lot longer than a tidbit, so no obligation to read! It’s from my Antique Shop AU where Yael and Nate go from friends to lovers after their initial, steamy meeting. No Book 3 spoilers!

“Won’t you please, please come with us?” Farah’s eyes turn wide and pleading. “I’m gonna die of boredom if you’re not coming.”
“I’m sure it can’t be that bad. Won’t Adam and Nate be there as well?”
Farah makes a face. “Like I said, die of boredom.”
To be fair, the assignment did seem less than exciting from what little Yael had gleaned. Some sort of ceremony to show the continued collaboration between the Agency and one of the supernatural communities. It was more of a formality than anything else, Nate had explained, a fond smile on his face. She’d thought it might be one of the things that had become something of a tradition during his long life. Which did explain why Farah would be practically begging her to come along.
“I would love to save you, but I have a ton of required reading and there are some supplies I need to pick up from the city. And I really should be preparing for the workshop on Monday.” She gestures at the paper and study books strewn across the kitchen table and Farah purses her lips.
“I can pick things up for you, okay? And can’t you study Nate or something? He’s antique, right?”
A burst of laughter escapes Yael, one she is quick to smother when Nate enters the kitchen right that moment. Not that he would have noticed, focused as he is on his phone. His brow is furrowed as he taps the screen with his index finger, a quick motion like he might get burned if he touched it for too long.
“Am I even allowed to attend?” 
Nate looks up from the screen. “Are you coming with us?” His frown smooths out, a smile lighting up his face. “I don’t see the problem. You have sufficient clearance, and it would give you a better understanding of how the Agency has been working with supernatural communities throughout the years.”
“See?” Farah whispers loud enough for Nate to hear even if he didn’t have vampire senses. “You have to save me from this.”
“You promise to pick up my order tomorrow?” 
Farah’s earrings dangle wild as she nods. “Promise.”
Yael turns to Nate, a plan beginning to form in her mind. “What do you know about marquetry, specifically Boulle?”
“Tarsia a incastro, you mean? Let me see, it’s a marquetry technique that developed in the seventeenth century, with André Charles Boulle among its most famous practitioners. He is well-known for using materials like---”
“---copper and tortoise shell,” Yael finishes his sentence. “I love you, you know that?”
“Ooh, no.” Farah dashes to stand in between Yael and Nate. “No, no, no. I’m the one who promised to travel all the way to the city for you, not him. You’re supposed to be talking with me.”
“You are more than welcome to add your thoughts on the topic.” Nate’s efforts to school his face into a serious expression are negated by the amusement tugging at the corners of his mouth as he glances at Yael. It’s quite adorable.
She lifts her hand to--- To do what? To trace the curve of his lips? She blinks at the thought, pressing her hands against her thighs to keep them there and redirecting her attention to Farah, whose look of betrayal has turned into something Yael can’t quite read as those golden eyes dart between her and Nate.

*passes you a bowl, spoon, and ice cream scoop* What toppings do you like on your ice cream? Also, which YouTube channels would you most enjoy seeing in a collaboration together? And, speaking of crossovers, if you could hire 47 to assassinate a character from any other fandom, who would it be?
Hi Ninja! Thank you for the ask! :D
*passes you a bowl, spoon, and ice cream scoop* What toppings do you like on your ice cream?
Ooh thank you! *surveys the ice cream options* it really depends on the ice cream! I don’t mind having ice cream without toppings, especially if it has things in it already (like mint chocolate chip or moose tracks). But fruit compote, hard-shell chocolate syrup, dark chocolate chips, or sprinkles are toppings I typically could like to add :)
Also, which YouTube channels would you most enjoy seeing in a collaboration together?
Oh! How about a Cartoonishly and Oxventure collab? I would love to see animations of their various antics. :D
And, speaking of crossovers, if you could hire 47 to assassinate a character from any other fandom, who would it be?
That’s a very interesting question! So it took me a bit to consider this, and honestly I’m still unsure of a solid answer. But I’ll go ahead and choose one of the characters from the latest Mission Impossible installment (Dead Reckoning Pt 1). I’ve hidden it below because of spoilers!
Tl;dr, I was not super excited for this film when I saw the trailers because I instantly feared for one of my favorite characters, Ilsa Faust. The movie was spoiled for me before I could see it, but as I expected, her character dies (and from a writer’s perspective, her demise didn’t even seem like a “useful” death for the plot, so it’s frustrating all around). The villain of the movie was the cause, and he’s an AI-loving douchebro named Gabriel. So in terms of a crossover between the Mission Impossible franchise and Hitman, I would expect 47 to go after Gabriel via some ironic opportunity.

Honestly I think this album is a bit of a step back for her. It feels like she played it safe and it doesn’t have all of the experimentation that we got from evermore that made that album so dynamic. I also think it suffers a lot from Jack as a producer. It seems like his production isn’t supporting what she’s trying to accomplish and as a result the songs either fall flat or don’t feel fully realized. By comparison, her songs with Aaron feel fully realized and the metaphors in them are so much more poignant. Idk I’m glad they’re friends but he either needs to grow as a producer or they need to part ways as the main collaborators on her albums
yeah i know everyone is bored of people saying folkmore was her magnum opus and how dare they only take her seriously when she's not making pop music blah blah blah but midnights is such a step back musically and lyrically that it's hard not to be disappointed. i don't think she's ever been super adventurous with her production so i don't necessarily think jack is to blame because i do believe she is firmly in the driver's seat when it comes to what she wants things to sound like (see the studio footage of her with joel little for example) but unfortunately a lot of the time that sound just isn't very interesting (to me!!! sorry to people who can't understand that things i post on my blog are my opinion without me explicitly saying so).
i think it says a lot that many of the songs on folkmore were existing tracks that she just wrote lyrics to. which is fine, because it worked really well. but it does explain to me why songs on which she had more input re the production do sound more.... basic? like oh we want a loud bombastic synth here because i'm MAD, and ooh we'll do stuff that sounds christmassy like snow on this track, like sometimes it works but a lot of the time it is very unimaginative. e.g. reputation was largely very uninspired production but i think most songs sound finished, like this is a fully formed idea that was executed reasonably well and it slaps. midnights has lots of half baked ideas where the execution seems half assed and it's like, this could have slapped? if you had finished it? if you had just sat with it a little longer and made it better. peer reviewed. beta read. idk.

HI STEPH
first of all, good morning, i love you!!!!!!!
second of all, i just had to let you know that babel just became available in my library holds and i’m excited to read it!!! i can’t promise i will be fast because i’m just a really slow reader these days but had to tell you. technically i’m reading something else but it’s so so long i might push it to the side for right now lol
third of all! i was listening to holly humberstone so much at work today and it was fabulous, we love talent 🤌
ok. that’s all. i hope you have a good weekend 🤍
good evening kayla, this was a lovely thing to wake up to; i appreciate it and i obviously appreciate you. i hope you've had a decent first week back at work, sometimes that's the best one can hope for as i've come to understand in recent years. oh the joy of being an adult.
ooh, i'm so excited for when you do get to read it, i feel like doing a reread myself sometime this year so that'll be good too. also take your time, i know not everyone reads as fast as i do due to attention spans & life in general so no worries. also what else are you reading at the moment? i just finished a fragile enchantment by alison saft, it was good, could've been better but oh well. now i need to decide what to get to next, which is hell because i'm such a mood content consumer. it'll be fine, i'll pick something eventually
finally, i was waiting for you to delve into her discography after the muna collaboration happened; you'll have to let me know your thoughts/any favourites of hers the next time we get to call :)
okay, i'm signing off here; thank you for thinking of me & taking the time to reach out as always. i mean it when i say it's what makes my days better, take care and i love you to the universe and back 💞

What did you think about Helluva Boss season 2 episode 4? Do you think it's a good season or is it kinda fizzling out? Do you think the stolitz ship is gonna survive this season? Is anything thats happening in cannon going to have an effect of "A prince and his barron"? Thank you!
1) Ooh, alrighty, Anon. It’s been awhile since I got a HB-related Ask! Honestly, I felt, for what the episode had to do, from an objective point of view as an adult who’d graduated from a design college (thus, I’ve seen the amount of work folks from the Illustration - Animation fields have to do and the miracles they have to pull out on a deadline) and as a fanfic writer who keeps up with new Helluva Boss episodes so I can keep up with the canon lore, the episode served its purpose. The end of the episode hit hard, no? So they delivered on that. Personally I would change a couple things to make certain things hit even harder (because I’m sadistic and love me my emotional knives in stories) but that’s only because I’m a writer myself and I always have things I would do differently, even for my favorite shows or movies, haha.
Tumblr media
It might not be my favorite episode per se, but we’re almost halfway to the end of Season 2 so there are going to be episodes that are stronger and episodes that are weaker. That’s just how shows go, overall. Plus, they are an indie crew so you just have to be more forgiving, especially when it’s a collaborative group effort with everyone’s conflicting schedules all around the world, time crunches, and unexpected setbacks such as having to find another VA and nervously hoping the realistic backlash of a changing VA won’t hit too hard. There’s also the rumor I’ve seen floating around that Loona’s VA was grieving the loss of her fiancé during this episode, so her not voicing any lines is also understandable on a fundamentally personal empathetic level (I don’t know if this rumor has been debunked, but it’s also still understandable for any other reasons. But I won’t get into that here.)
Animation is hard, y’all. And you have to remember the people creating Helluva Boss are human. Not all episodes will be perfect. Even with my favorite show rn, I have certain episodes I’m happy to rewatch and certain ones I skip. There are certain seasons that will be stronger and some that you’re not that into.
I will have to say, this episode isn’t an automatic skip for me unlike the Cherubs episode sorry, I just don’t like the Cherubs personally, haha, but I understand their reason for existing in the canon lore so kudos to the animators and VAs. I do appreciate the animation of S2:E4 though. The songs were nice, and it was interesting to see the storyboards and the tweets from the song writers about the direction they were given—and how that resulted in the final product. It’s very interesting to see all the behind-the-scenes stuffs.
2) I have yet to see all the episodes of Season 2 so I will be reserving my judgement. Of all four episodes released thus far, I think S1 is stronger—but it’s an unfair comparison (like apples vs oranges) because we’ve seen all the episodes of S1 and we have yet to see the rest of S2.
“Fizzling out” is a strong word. Hmm. (Anon, and I mean this with love, if my support or interest in a show genuinely “fizzles out,” that’s not a good thing; you’re not going to see me continuing with something if my enthusiasm fades and it feels like a chore just to sit through something, trust me.) I have to say, excluding the Circus episode which was very, very strong and Exes and Oohs which I just adored, the rest of the episodes released thus far have things I like and a couple things I’m meh about. But, again, that’s par for the course. So I can’t objectively determine if S2 is fizzling out or weaker yet; I’d have to sit through the rest of the unreleased episodes to make that determination and then see S3.
I can’t remember off the top of my head, but I believe Vivziepop tweeted they were already working on the scripts for S3 or S4. Feel free to correct me on this! But whether it’s S3 or S4 or S5, it shows they have a plan and a strategy and there’s a lot more they want to explore and show us. They’re not spontaneously creating plot beats after every episode has aired (trust me, spontaneous writing is HARD; I have massive respect for writers who can write spontaneously—and still be able to execute it well). I’m in it to witness the spectacle and see where they take us.
Tumblr media
3) Hm. So, hot take, but the Stolitz ship is always going to survive regardless of what season it is. They’re not ignorant. I don’t know why there are some people who think or worry the ship isn’t going to survive. It’s the main draw, the main ship, the main way they’re making profit. They sell Stolitz merchandise; it’s the most popular ship in the show. It’s not even fanon; it’s canon. So an expectation has been set, and they have to deliver. Betrayal of expectations, regardless of subversion, will be met with backlash; no one likes the feeling of being lied to. So if the Stolitz ship doesn’t survive, their viewership is going to tank. If viewership tanks, that means less interest, and less interest means less money in the bank.
I’m looking at it realistically—which is honestly kinda immersion-breaking for me because this ruins any tension of the “will they, won’t they” for me, haha (like, no, you definitely know they will)—but it’s honestly why I’m not panicking even if there is “a breakup” or “let’s see other people” or “let’s take a break from each other” or a fakeout death planned. <- That, I think, would be the worst extent of the Stolitz ship temporarily “not surviving” (ey, I understand, as a writer you gotta throw in some angst, hardship, and obstacles so when your characters get together, it feels deserving and earned), but obviously they’re going to finagle a way to get Blitzø and Stolas back together as a couple.
At the end of the day, it boils down to the HB crew’s execution of this ship in the show. There’s a lot of pressure resting on their shoulders, and I wish them luck and success.
At the end of the day, people are being paid to put out a product for mass consumption so they are invested in seeing that product succeed so they can continue to make a profit for as long as they can. Helluva Boss is their money-making machine aka golden goose. This pays the bills for them. They’d be stupid to kill off their golden goose (Stolitz). A lot of names (especially big ones with the VAs) are also attached, so they also want it to succeed. Even if there’s a loud minority of antis on the HB critical side who consistently air that they don’t like the Stolitz element, honestly, nothing they say will make the show-runners of Helluva Boss change their mind on Stolitz being canon and delivered.
4) Is anything that’s happening in canon, as more and more episodes are being released, going to affect my Stolitz fic: A Prince and His Baron (AO3 🔗).
Yes. And no. What I mean by that is I’m going to be choosy with what I see in canon. It’s the reason why I initially strategized to make P&B an AU, because the big risk of writing a long fic for an ongoing show is at some point, inevitably canon will contradict what I have planned or written. With making it an AU, I get to be selective about the canon Easter eggs I want to include or be influenced by.
Tumblr media
For example, with the reveal of them being childhood friends in the Circus, I understand and acknowledge their canon direction, but I’m obviously going to ignore it in my AU. They’re going to stay as strangers who happened to meet in their adult years as an assassin imp on the rise and a powerful Goetia prince who wants him on the Royals faction side. Because the latter makes sense for my AU and they have to develop their relationship from a one-night stand (with benefits -> granting Blitz his baron status and land -> lowkey manipulation to make Blitz indebted to him and the land has automatically made Blitz a vassal to the prince by definition) to an understanding and feelings of genuine affection and devotion. We’re playfully poking fun at the Harlequin romance genre after all (assassin x prince), with some Hellish infernal politics.
Somethings I’m taking from canon include the dynamic between Stella and Andrealphus. Oh boy, Stella. What a complete turnaround in opinion I have of her, haha. I’m probably going to take a different approach to her (potential spoiler alert for P&B: she’s still “evil” but I like the idea she’s been spoiled and perhaps manipulated, so for certain things she has a bottom line when it comes to wickedness—and Andrealphus will have crossed that at a certain point in the story and it challenges her core beliefs because now she has to decide betraying her family or aligning herself with the husband (and imp) she despises). Of course, the more episodes I see, the more decisive I will be in deciding whether or not to go with this angle. If I see Stella continues to be an unrepentant b*tch in canon, she may not have the relatively good outcome I had been planning for her in my story at the end with the royal wedding between Stolas and Blitzø.
I also have other things P&B are being affected by, such as the worldbuilding of the rings of Hell. So while I can fill in the blanks and make P&B entirely off my imagination, it’s fun to see the canon lore and see which things to keep and which things I want to take a different approach with. :)
Thank you for the Ask, anon! 💞
