Notes from “Celebrate with CS Pacat and Holly Black” with Ballast Book Company

Holly Black jokes that Pacat has no trouble in torturing Will, Violet, and James in Dark Rise.

Pacat says, “It’s so much about identity. The essential question of the book is who do you believe you are vs who is everyone telling you that you are. If the whole world’s telling you that you’re a villain, is that a narrative you can overcome or are you destined live up to expectations?”

Pacat had “all the input” when deciding on the covers. Pacat begged the publishers to use a cover artist that she used as reference material for her characters. The cover artist is great at drawing something mysterious or sinister about the characters.

Pacat: “Yes, the third book is next. And there is a secret project as well. There is something waiting in the works but it is a massive secret.”

Faith from Buffy the vampire slayer is Pacat’s favorite villain ever.

Pacat says that James is a people pleaser, which is the biggest different between James and Laurent. James wants to please / do well in the eyes of someone else and be told that he’s good / a good person; Laurent would despise that.

A Fire Emblem Awakening design for my main oc, Holly!

I’ve been in a bit of an Awakening craze since the new banner in Feh dropped. I’m so happy Laurent is finally in🥰❤️

[most-hated-blorbo-bracket]

any chance of an updated list?

Of course!!

Also, this is the NEW and FUCKING IMPROVED LIST, I alphabetized it so it’s even better than before >:3

Currently, we have 340 unique characters (if I counted right) and 487 total submissions. The top three most submitted fandoms are Homestuck, Danganronpa, and One Piece, excluding submissions that were spelt wrong or spelt differently. The top three submitted characters are Haiji Towa, Vriska Serket, and Stella Goeta (stella has so many submissions it’s funny)!

Finally, this is the raw, unedited list of characters submitted so far. Just because they are here doesn’t mean they’ll be in the tournament; it just means they’ve been submitted, regardless of media or what character they are!

as always, list under the cut!

This first list is for characters with two or more submissions. Characters who have three or more submissions will get first dibs in the tournament!

Updated Character List

This is a multimuse blog and the roster changes a bit from time to time. This is the updated list as of January 2024.

Main Muses

Laurent Toussaint

A former Garlean conscript who was sponsored and rehabilitated by a family in Old Sharlayan. He’s a man learning to make the most of this second chance.

 Exploration of Freedom // Meeting Oneself for the First Time // Healing // Alchemy // Angst for the Sake of Growth

#Laurent

Fangsong Searsha

On the surface, Searsha is a club owner who appears to thrive in a vibrant nightlife. This is not the depth of her character, but it is probably who you will meet first.

Ninjas and Neon // Vipers and Venom // Personality Plasticity at the Cost of Closeness // Intensity as a Love Language

#Searsha

Reverie ‘Evie’ Heart

A baker with a past who looks hopefully to the future. She’s a spiced cinnamon roll who just wants to live a life full of small daily joys.

Fluff with a Hint of Angst // Service as a Love Language // Beach Bum with a Tackle Box // A Comfort Character

#Evie /  #Reverie

Other Characters

Violetta Grimm [https://violetta-grimm.carrd.co/]

Due to a recent blow to her personal story, Violetta is around but playing a smaller role in my writing.

Dark/Vampiric/Gothic Themes and Aesthetic

#Violetta

Holly The Rover [https://holly-the-rover.carrd.co/]

Like Violetta, Holly was a main for a long time, but now he’s just sort of lurking in the background until he gets wound up in new shenanigans.

Hedonist and Hunter // Job Broker

#Holly

Alice Graves [https://aka-alice.carrd.co/]

Alice will return with Dawntrail and the Pictomancer because it is what she was unknowingly made for. She’s an odd character, and I look forward to future chaos for her and those who know her.

Learning to be Wholesome // Reckless Adventurer //  Inner Child Exploration

#Maddie / #Alice / #aka Alice

[rosyandraw]

Holly 😭 don’t tell me there’s only gonna be one chapter left? We barely see got to see them happy with each other. We want more delicious sex between the two 🥺 Especially since most of it happened behind the scenes like who’d known they had that many recordings with one another which btw HOT 🥵

I’m interested to know more about that though like who idea was it to record/take pics first. Who brought up the phone/camera first. Because it’s something that requires so much trust no? I wonder if it was Laurent or Damen that initiated it or was it simply just something that happened between the two.

Apart from that, please consider adding more chapters or just writing more about them jdhdjs because unless the final chapter is long af, I want to see them happy more 🥹🤍

Hey lovely!

I know, I can't believe it either because I usually just keep upping the chapter count haha. But I'm glad you think it's hot!

OMG I have so any things to say! So, Damen is a thirst trap King and I just feel like he would send photos over just randomly like here look at my perfect abs and the outline of my perfect dick in these joggers. Laurent’s photos are much less explicit when he’s alone but I did have a scene where they bang in front of a mirror and Damen “shows him the back view” so to speak but that didn't make it in

I think of it as more of a gateway to: one day we’ll film a lot of the sex we have and watch it back to have more sex… but Laurent’s not quite there yet.

So I do feel like the blow job video is one of the only videos he really has apart from the would-be mirror scene lmao

Fun fact that’s not very fun: the filmed blow job was originally the beginning of chapter 6 but I cut a bunch of stuff including an Ancel scene/dialogue and went straight to the party instead. In hind sight this was not a good idea because I cut too much and the refs disappeared LMAO but ah well, that’s what you get for writing on the fly and for taking a year long break. Shit happens!

I want to see them happy too! I do want to do an epilogue but i might make it part 2 rather than chapter 10 if that makes sense. I know epilogue's aren't for everyone! 💕

First of all, I'm a bookstan 📚 and I'm brazilian 🇧🇷

Fantasy ones are my favorites 🧚🧝🥀

A fan of ACoTaR, but apparently on the opposite side – supporter of Nesta, Eris, Tamlin and Lucien, and not a big fan of IC 🌹🔥

Hufflepuff is my house, but I have one foot in Ravenclaw and the other in Slytherin.

Holly Black is the true queen of teen fantasy, and George R. R. Martin is certainly the king of this genre, with Tolkien practically being a God.

In A Dance with Dragons, maybe Team Green? I still don't know. I certainly love Alicent, but I recognize why Rhaenyra felt betrayed.

Cardan and Jude are the best, and Laurent and Damen are not far behind. In short, I vibe with anything about these four 🐍🗡️👑

I've loved Peeta since the first scene, but Lucy Gray has my heart too.

Never tried to argue with me about SW. One of two: either you leave crying or you will listen to me forever. About Star Trek, I still don't know much about it, but I love Discovery.

Anne Rice introduced me to gothic literature and Lestat is a fucking king. Sorry, Dracula. I love your story, but Lestat is Lestat.

Frankstein, The Phantom of the Opera and The Picture of Dorian Gray and Carmilla have a treasured place on my bookcase.

I've never read Dune or Jules Verne, but they're on my list.

These are the things I'm going to talk about here, so that's it.

I'm in love with the Dark King Sarcean – my baby Will Kempen – and his top lieutenant, Anharion – my other baby James St. Clair – from Dark Rise 🖤

Recapping Chapters 71 - 75

Day One:

The second year attendees are taken on a tour of the estate by Sébastien Vayssière, and they are left at their dormitories to unpack and introduce themselves to each other. Harry speaks with Blaise outside of their rooms, and things are a bit tense between the two boys. Finn Vogel interrupts, behaving coldly towards Blaise, who quickly retreats to the Altomare room. 

Harry meets his roommates; Hugo Laurent, Noah Schulte, Arie Driessen, and Liam Graf. Hugo admits he was asked by his family to keep an eye out for Harry this week, and he warns Harry about tensions between certain families. Harry learns more about how the Altomares supported Grindelwald during the war, and he is warned to stay away from the Altomare sponsored attendees. When he pushes to understand why they are so dangerous, Harry is told the Altomares practice necromancy. 

Harry learns that the Altomares have a special arrangement with the Italian government, where members of the family are exempt from the laws prohibiting necromancy. The Altomares do not share the knowledge of how to practice necromancy, and they are the only individuals known to practice necromancy in Europe. 

After unpacking, the second year attendees are taken to an introductory session to get to know one another. Once the icebreaker session is complete, the attendees are invited to put down their names for workshops for the week ahead. Harry joins his roommates back in their dormitory to select workshops. 

Later after dinner, Harry and Daphne slip away to talk, and Harry tells her about the Altomare family practicing necromancy, and the interaction with Blaise. They also talk about Daphne’s decision to remain at Hogwarts, in spite of her wanting to attend Durmstrang. 

Day Two:

Harry attends the Alchemy workshop with Arie. He realises how well-positioned he is for the practice of alchemy, given he is capable of wandless magic. They are transmuting ammonia hydroxide into water, and at the end of the workshop, Harry has created something that looks like water but seems to resonate with magic. When his solution is tested, the assistant seems bewildered and a little worried, getting the instructor Ms Hansen to come over. After examining Harry’s solution, Ms Hansen asks him to stay behind to talk. 

Once alone, Ms Hansen reveals Harry accidentally created a restricted substance known as concentrated magic. The substance temporarily increases a person’s power when consumed, but it is restricted because of how dangerous it is. She also warns Harry in general that he has the potential to be a great alchemist one day, but his path will be perilous until he learns to hone his magic. It is implied that Ms Hansen suspects Harry to be capable of wandless magic, but she does not interrogate him about it, respecting his privacy. 

After the Alchemy workshop, Harry attends the Curse-Breaking workshop with Daphne. They learn how to detect curses in a series of educative and fun exercises. Harry works out the trick to the final task, but runs out of time to complete the test. 

That evening, the Battenberg sponsored second years enjoy an evening together on the grounds. Harry gets to know everyone a little better, and he learns Finn is considered the best duellist of his year level at Durmstrang. 

Day Three:

Harry and Daphne attend the first part of the Wandcraft workshop in the morning. At first, Harry is excited because he believes their instructor, Madam Alarie, might be capable of wandless magic like him. However, he quickly learns she cannot do wandless magic, but rather the technique she uses to examine wands is a form of ritual magic that does not require a wand. Harry learns he should not work with holly wood in the workshop, because his wand has a possessive nature. Instead, he chooses to work with yew wood, having been drawn to study it after learning Voldemort’s wand was made of yew. He selects thestral hair for the core, and the materials are set aside to be crafted together on Saturday at the next workshop. 

After lunch, Harry heads to the Duelling workshop with Daphne and his roommates. Their instructor, Mr Gaudreau, asks for a volunteer to challenge for the first duel, and Finn raises his hand. He immediately challenges Harry to a duel. 

During the duel, Harry uses his control over his magic to enhance his spells beyond what he would otherwise be capable of. At the end of the duel, he sends Finn flying, and is concerned he has hurt the other boy based on how hard he landed. Harry’s hesitation costs him the duel, allowing Finn to grab his wand again and win the duel. 

Later, Harry watches Daphne and Liam duel, and he observes Liam’s unusual but effective techniques. He learns that Liam is in the top five duellists in their age group at Durmstrang. 

Day Four: 

Harry attends the Quidditch workshop with Karl, who put down the same session as Harry. He is introduced to one of Karl’s friends, Viktor Krum. Harry faces off against Viktor in the workshop, and although he loses the Snitch to Viktor, the other boy is impressed at the way Harry flew. 

Lunch is served that day outside, and Harry talks with Karl and his group of friends. They are approached by an individual who introduces themselves as Mischa Drozdova. Harry learns that Mischa’s family is one of the few in the world to carry the Metamorphmagi ability, and that Mischa has the ability. The two speak privately, and Mischa explains they knew Harry was a Metamorphmagi, because a couple of years ago their father was approached concerning a request for support for a new Metamorphmagus - Harry Potter. Mischa’s father sent the intermediary away to get more information and establish contact with the Blacks, but they never heard back from the intermediary. They assumed the Blacks no longer wanted their assistance. Harry informs Mischa that they never heard back from the intermediary either, and it seems that person let down both families. 

Mischa offers to talk with their father about offering training to Harry and Dora too. They also discuss that Mischa uses they and them pronouns, and that they can maintain their Metamorphmagi transformations without consciously thinking about it. Harry asks if Mischa’s family have a theory why some people inherit hereditary magical abilities, and others don’t, and Mischa shares that their family believe magic itself chooses the person to inherit an ability. For what purpose, it is unclear, but Mischa’s family believes magic has a reason for selecting the people it does. 

Harry and Daphne head to the Runesmith workshop, and while they are standing outside to be let in, they encounter a girl who instantly captivates everyone present. Harry’s magic warns him that there is something off about the girl, and he able to break free of her influence to realise she is emitting a strange sort of magic across everyone. He is able to free Daphne of her influence too, by covering his friend with his magic and pushing the girl’s influence away. Harry realises the girl does not seem to be able to control herself, and she is not doing it on purpose. 

In the Runecraft workshop, Harry and Daphne are assessed by the instructor, who is unable to place either of them in the class due to their inexperience. She assigns them to shadow advanced students, so the workshop is not a total waste of time. Harry ends up shadowing the girl, who is rude and dismissive of him. When he gets angry at her, she seems strangely shocked and then calculating. Harry realises she is used to people fawning over her, no matter how she treats them — she can tell Harry is somehow unaffected by her. 

She warms up to Harry after that, introducing herself as Fleur Delacour and guiding Harry through her process in runesmithing. 

After the workshop, Daphne is angry and upset at the fact she and Harry are so far behind. In particular, Daphne feels let down by her mother, who is a Runes Mistress. Daphne feels strongly that her parents have not done enough for she and Harry, and she wants to confront them that evening, with Harry. 

Harry does not feel the same way at all, and is reluctant to accompany Daphne to have that conversation. The two have a disagreement, and part ways. Harry talks to Sirius, and gets some advice from his godfather. He also tells Sirius about Mischa’s offer to talk to their father about training Harry. Sirius is hesitantly interested in the possibility of Harry being trained, but is not keen on him going to Russia as Mischa suggested. 

Later that evening, Harry discusses what electives he should pick for Durmstrang with his roommates. He is warned about the professor who teaches the Mind Arts; Professor Sylvan. They discuss how Duelling students who are thirteen and above can compete in the International Youth Duelling Competition, which is held in April each year. Schools can only send twenty students to compete; ten in the junior division (13-15) and ten in the senior (16 -17). 

Day Five:

Harry and Daphne make amends with one another, both apologising to the other for the disagreement. Daphne shares that her mother Rosie is going to design a runecraft intensive program for the rest of summer to catch Daphne up, and Harry is invited to attend too. 

Mischa meets Harry for breakfast, and the teenager confirms their father is happy to train Harry and Dora, but he would like to meet them both. They plan a meeting in Paris in a couple of days before Harry goes home to Britain. Mischa explains the reason they suggested Harry train in Russia, is because it is very hard for foreigners to get an International Portkey to Britain. 

After breakfast, Harry attends the Duelling workshop for the second time, with Liam. They spot Kasia and Malina, and Harry learns that Liam and the girls know each other, and that there is a rivalry between Kasia and Liam. 

Kasia’s uncle is a professional duellist, who has trained her this summer, and Harry sees her win her duel against Malina using an advanced move to get around Malina’s Shield Charm. When Harry duels against Liam, he experiences Liam using his Shield Charm offensively, allowing him to take Harry out. 

That afternoon, Harry has his Psychometry workshop. He recognises the surname of his instructor, Étienne Agard, and realises the man might be related to one of Harry’s ancestors, Edith Agard. She was the mother of Rhiannon Gaunt, who brought Bloodbane into the Black family. 

Harry conducts a successful psychometry ritual, and Étienne invites Harry to stay after class if he has any questions or he wants to learn more. While waiting for everyone to have their turn at the ritual, Harry observes another boy walk over to him and correctly match his item to Harry. The other boy seems interested in Harry, and when the workshop finishes, he comes over to talk. 

The boy’s name is Dion Lykaios, and he is a member of the Greek family who hold a seat on the council of the Dark Alliance. The two boys chat about divination, history, and tradition, and Harry learns that Morgana is a household name in Europe. He and Dion exchange mailing addresses, and Dion encourages Harry to come visit Greece and let him show Harry around. 

Harry talks to Étienne about self-teaching divination, and Harry also brings up the Agard connection. Étienne confirms his family had British relatives, but they dwindled in size and have since died out. Harry shares that his Agard ancestor suffered from an illness, that she passed onto her daughter, and then from the daughter entered the Black family line. Étienne identifies the illness Harry is referring to — Bloodbane. He explains that whilst no one in his family suffer from it, that his British relatives did have it. 

Harry asks Étienne if he knows where the Bloodbane came from, and if his family have a theory why one side were unaffected and the other had the disease. Étienne is not sure where Bloodbane came from — but his family believe it was the British Agard’s inbreeding that triggered the development of the disease. 

That evening after dinner, Harry spends time with the other Battenberg sponsored attendees. In particular, he talks with Daphne’s roommates, Ella Dietrich, Adele Pasche and Danijela čukić. He shares that he plans on selecting Runecraft, Alchemy and the Mind Arts for his electives. Harry is again warned about the Mind Arts teacher, Professor Sylvan. He also learns that Daphne’s Uncle Ezra is very popular as Durmstrang’s Transfiguration teacher.
