Any updates planned for On the Water? ❤️❤️❤️

Oh I love you for asking about that one! I've actually had the last two chapters planned out for ages, but between all my other stories, it's just fallen behind on my list of priorities :') But now that I've finished several of my bigger fics, I'd love to get back to it! My goal is to finish Tideswept next, but once I do, this might be just the thing. Either way, I'm just happy to hear that someone is excited to read it<3

#On the Water is actually my personal favourite among the Shanties timelines #because it's where Makino gets to be both a barmaid and a pirate without sacrificing either one for the other #unlike in Sailor's Folly and Mnemosyne she's had her years in Party's to grow into herself as a barmaid #and unlike in Sea Songs she also gets her adventure on the high seas #I also just love exploring how an older and more experienced Makino adapts to a life at sea with Shanks and the crew #and how she grows into a pirate on her own terms #and while both Mnemosyne and Andromeda Unbound end with their bar on the ship/brethren court #On the Water is where she really feels the most like herself to me #my pirate barmaid<3 #(and Shanks building her a bar on his ship is one of my favourite scenes that I've written for them)#.....talking about this fic made me excited to continue #thank you for asking about it!! it reignited a spark I'd forgotten<3
