Hmm Atropa being the character we follow and know the thoughts of (despite using 3rd person narration, the narrator is either not omniscient or chooses to Not Say Shit about what's going in other people's brains, and i forget what that's called ok) is not a bad thing but this means I have to be careful not to jump in Hélianthe's brain sometimes. And thus have her... make suppositions of what he's thinking, i guess.

#'he seems nervous. wonder why' is going to be a recurring segment apparently #which. he is that's not the question ! it's just hmm #i guess eventually i will show that they've gotten closer because she might be able to guess more accurately #vs not really giving a fuck what he's worried about in the beginning #if that makes any sense ?#i might need to check what my outline was again #also i'm thinking of a scene - about how Hélianthe is still acting like a spoiled child regarding some specific bits - and hm.#i'm not #actually fully certain of where to place it.#but ok who gives a shit right now #Hélianthe is here to groan that I Don't Like The Vibes Of That Duke #(says a man whose vibes are also clearly Off to anyone in Eshda who looks at him)#(before they get used to it)#like he is trying to pass off as human so he's going to need More Blood Than Normal for that to... work i guess ?#it's like. ok so.#i think my problem here lies in worldbuilding and how vampires work #that's it. that's. that's the problem hahaha #1. they drink blood to live 2. they're cold 3. there is something visible that can make humans go 'hm. something is Wrong here' but WHAT #(follow up : how does it relate to blood consumption and hiding in plain sight)#things to think about #pondering.#ok let's go write that first draft now #ideally i'd enjoy being on page 40 before the end of the weekend which means that i'd enjoy doing that this afternoon bc #i'll be at a friends' house this weekend LOL i won't be writing much #hélianthe et atropa
