#I have made essays on their dynamics but they're in my notes and idk if they're accurate or it's just the writer in me lol

[i-like-anything-water]

Hello I-Like-Anything-Water! I'm respecting your privacy by knocking, but am too impatient to wait for permission and am coming in anyway! (Breaks door down with a battering ram)

Glad to see from you again! Hope school's treating you well. I have returned with more CHLOENETTE!!

I posted this a few other places, but was curious about your thoughts on it: The Scene starts with Rose inspecting a present someone left on her desk, wondering what's inside... only for it to blast open and smash a pie into her face, the sound of cruel laughter coming from behind her. She turns her head to see Marinette and Chloe, both decked out in gold, and asks why Marinette became so mean. Marinette's answer? "Because someone needs to keep little losers like you in their place!" Before moving in to kiss her girlfriend... and then Marinette wakes up screaming, wondering why she dreamed of dating Chloe of all people... and why the thought of being so cruel felt so right.

Meanwhile, across town, Chloe is experiencing a dream of her own. One in which she's no longer rich, and isn't particularly famous. One where she spends most of her days either keeping the house in good condition or helping her in-laws run the bakery. A simple life with a loving family, when her wife, Marinette walks through the door... carrying their daughter in her arms. She moves in to pull her wife into a kiss... and wakes up, blushing bright enough to be seen from space, and instantly going into denial that she would EVER want to be with Dupain-Cheng OR give up her wealth and influence... no matter how at home she felt in that little shop in her dreams.

To make a long story short, my thought is that both Marinette and Chloe are crushing hard on each other, in denial, and would gladly throw away their current lives if it meant being with the other. What do you think?

Hello! School is still a pain and my toothache isn't helping but it's alright, ask as much as you want. My doors are pretty much open at this point xD

I think that's what makes Chloenette my favorite ship in the series. They won't throw away all the life they built away (technically) but they would want to do everything that hey can to build a future for them.

Marinette growing a more firm and decisive backbone due to Chloé's influence is pretty much accepted within the chloenette fandom and I personally think it's great. Despite her growth (canonically...there still is) I don't see why she can't be a bit more aggressive in situations. Plus it's funny when Mari's being mean but also feeling kinda bad but satisfied later and Chloé's just proud and smug. 'That's my girl.'

Chloé Bourgeois, former heiress turned commoner found strolling Paris's park with up and coming fashion designer Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

I don't know if y'all have read the fics, but Tacomuerte's stories 'Best Frenemies' and 'Divided Loyalties' are one of the best portrayal of Chloé slowly settling down with Mari's lifestyle and Mari with Chloé's. Chloé is artistic (a bit perfectionist in a way as well) and I can definitely see her fussing and making sure all of the pastries are decorated to the tiniest of details and that every box doesn't have a single speck of dirt or crumpled. Baking also requires physical exertion especially in large orders so that's one way for her to let out some steam without causing an akuma xD.

They grew up with different backgrounds but I can see them having multiple common grounds aside from Fashion. One of them is their devotion and loyalty to people they like (in Chloé's case, people she genuinely respects and looks up to) which can get pretty aggressive and sometimes obsessive (obsessive chloenette is a fave).

Basically, yeah, I can see them doing a lot of unexpected things just to be together and to build a future they both want and need.

hiii I was given an excuse to talk my head off so I will! any excuse not to think about current events tbh!

my crownie's name is Asphodel, but I just call them Azzie. idk if their name fits with the other siblings well like, Salvatorem, Percival, Asphodel, Orla? I'm iffy, but i feel like im too far in now. a big like, design note for me about them is their hair is naturally like dark brown but they fucking bleached it to shit so it's totally fried. it was a major impulse choice, it's gotten to the point where the roots are pretty visible but they are not gonna fix it. in my brain the way the roots split up are the actual flower. I wanna draw them later so it's more clear... not realistic at all but my artist design brain takes forefront. I imagine they have really droopy eyes. in my head they're very wet cat.

my favorite characters are Sally and Percy!! I love sibling dynamics in IFs and I love that we actually get to spend time with them in game. I made lime a bunch of design notes about them to match Azzy at some point but I definitely lost them. one thing I do remember is noting I think Percy would have like 3B textured hair if you know what I mean? and Sally is thicker at like 3c - 4a but would either keep his hair really short or in locs for tidines sake so it's. irrelevant. i just like to think hes stressed out so hed like a hair style that doesn't require as constant Maintenance to look good. this is the situation that they are black men cause my crownie is black so (vague hand wave). I imagined Orla also has like 3b hair.

I ended up romancing Lorcan because. man do I love sibling dynamics! I love the idea of Azzy seeing in Lorcan something they couldn't have, a remnant of their sister, someone they miss but also resent to some extent. of course not consciously, I always imagine they like can acknowledge they feel something towards Lorcan, but not fully what and that freaks them out so they just choose not to think about it? especially since I play them being very nice to him and I like to think they don't even fully know why they're being like that. they're naturally conflict avoidant, you get into so much trouble for things you can't control, you sort of want to avoid it whenever you can now, but this is weird. and they're already weird if they think something Is weird? what the FUCK is going on? can't tell anyone either, want to more reasons for people to think you're a freak? choosing not to think about it. 3000 other things to think about that are not this.

that's all I have to share about them I thiiiink sorry for sending you like an essay of thoughts. thank you for letting me distract myself in your inbox for a sec, I actually feel a lot better ^^.

What’s interesting about that name that refers usually to lilies is that it is also associated with Hades (the place) and even if it’s more ritzy than the other kid’s names as a classics major who thinks about the Roman Empire and Ancient Greece 24/7 I do like anything that reminds me of antiquity ☺️

As you said 3B I knew your characters were likely black and that’s cause for Nia I thought about her her hair type far too long than was necessary I literally agonized for some reason 😭😭😭 and honestly if one day you find them or make other art for the family I would love to see it

Ohhhhhh I like that, your Crowny resents and misses Orla that is so cool cause I don’t get many people who don’t hate Orla and like I said certain things affect your relationship with her. In this case the future does change the past. I like how you got into Crowny’s jumbled mess right there for Lorcan hahaha yeah it must feel fucking insane

[l1ve-l4ugh-lov3craft]

agh alphard as vander is a FANTASTIC idea!! i was stuck on who to put him as!!

with voldy as silco, i was honestly thinking you could even do a bit of canon divergence and rather than jinx’s loyalty to silco because he took her in, have regulus be loyal to voldemort not necessarily because he took him in, but more cos it was a way for him to get close enough to kill him?? idk if that makes sense?? but it could be a thing?? i dunno i feel like i have some sort of vision for that and idk how to explain it

okay okay okay proposition! snape as sevika, BUT THEN Peter as Marcus 👆and we do just a bit more canon divergence somehow that allows peter to have known james (even tho he’s the ekko character) cos i feel like the whole thing with him setting up and orchestrating the barricade, especially with it being the place that ekko and jinx fight and where ekko (so by extention james) almost dies?? it’s not ideal but it could be an option?? and then cos Minerva or Poppy (Imm leaning towards Minnie lol) would have known peter it would still hurt on that level?? idk let me know what you think

okay and here’s my essay on Ekko as James (though you’re SO right jayce is so james-coded). So ofc, that scene was a big factor when i was thinking about cos can you imagine??? just a lil canon divergence to have james and sirius have their iconic friendship, but after it all goes to hell in episode 1, they're split up??? and then the reunion they would have later in that scene??? DX Iconic. I would LIVE for it. And then also I think it would be really interesting to work with James and Regulus' dynamic as Ekko and Jinx equivalents?? Cos honestly, ideally I'd have James be Caitlin cos of the way Jinx got so jealous of her the same way reg did of james when he adn sirius became friends? But wolfstar is more important i'm sorry XD Unfortunately, I may have to forsake platonic moonwater in this au which is DEVASTATING cos I live for platonic moonwater QwQ Anyway and then i just think James fits a bit better into the scenes with Ekko than he does into Jayce's (even though it WOULD be a very neat take on james as a character to put him as jayce)

ANYWAY Lily as Jayce and Pandora as Victor??? PLEASE I'm obsessed that was SUCH a good ideaaaa!!! (and I'm a fan of jayvic AND pandalilly so things all work out whaaaaaaattt who said that) And I'm also a HUGE fan of putting Mary as Mel! Like YES! I love anything that encourages putting mary macDonald in more of a plot-heavy role in a story i love that woman (and the marylily content?? what???)

and of COURSE slughorn has to be heimerdinger oh my GOSH perfect idea 10/10, no notes!!

ADDITIONALLY to what you added, I also had the idea last night, if James is Ekko, to have the Firelights be called the Marauders? Kinda as homage to the marauders themselves?? Which is also why I'd love to have james and peter have more interaction even if he's in marcus' role, cos then once James takes Sirius and Remus to their hideout, all the four og marauders would be together and idk i just like it :)

hopefully this all made sense lollll XD

shoutout to @taleofapart-timepoet for this post about a marauders arcane au cos I’ve not been able to stop thinking about it all evening

I’d love to see a sort of looser based, slightly canon adjacent au?? a bit in the way crimson rivers was done where the big canon things do happen and there’s parallels, but creative liberites are taken

HEAR ME OUT

Vi - Sirius (obviously)

Jinx/Powder - Regulus (again, obvs)

Silco - Voldemort??? Maybe?? But I’m thinkin more in a crimson rivers tom riddle sort of way

Caitlin - Remus, of course

Ekko - Hear me out??? James?? and his and sirius’ dynamic is one that’s a bit different than vi and ekko’s in canon in a way i know but don’t feel like typing out so ask me if you want me to elaborate

Not sure who to do for the rest but SOMEONE PLEASE TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS I HAVE SO MANY IDEAS

[clare-with-no-i]

omg... okay. are you ready? because i don't think you're ready. maybe you are. idk. i'm not ready and i'm the one writing this so me trying to prepare you is really just me trying to prepare myself. i fully have my laptop out and everything as i'm typing this because i need to be able to articulate my thoughts without worrying about an overwhelming number of typos.

okay okay. firstly, i realize that i really should be commenting my thoughts on your actual work instead of writing an ask but?? i feel like this has sort of became my niche??? so i might just continue this??? (idk hopefully it isn't annoying that i blow up your inbox with essays but if you prefer ppl commenting on ao3 instead pls tell and i'll gladly do that. also WHY AM I LITERALLY WORRYING ABOUT THIS IT ISNT THAT BIG OF A DEAL OMG AND I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED TALKING ABOUT THE ACTUAL CHAPTER HELP) (i really thought i was gonna be able to keep this one short for the first time but apparently not bye lmao)

ANYWAY!!!!! i just have to say it. did i get emotional when i saw the cute little shoutout thing in the chapter notes? MAYBE!! SUE ME I'M AN EMOTIONAL BITCH!!!! (but really that was so sweet of you and idk it's not that big of a deal but i just thought it was so sweet and aghskjgdhg anyway im ranting again and need to get into the actual story bits)

OKAY. can i just say i'd die for reg. i think that's a known fact around these parts but i feel the need to reiterate: I!! WOULD!!! DIE!!!!! FOR REGULUS!!! BLACK!!!! he is just... everything and you do him the justice he deserves. like "pain has always been easy to stifle after a certain point." ??!!??!!?! not only do i deeply relate to that line (to the point that i highlighted it because somehow you're able to communicate my very own thoughts better than i can????) but it's just... so regulus. like it just makes so much sense for him!! that line!! is him!!!! ugh i just feel so deeply for him and you're able to heighten that by 100 bc of your writing.

remus' snark in this chapter was exactly what i needed from my good boy. normalize remus lupin having cheek!!! his little one liners made me grin so much my cheeks ached because he is just!! so good!!! also "remus, the self-appointed ambassador of Gryffindor gender relations" exactly. exactly!! he IS the moment and will forever BE the moment!!!!!!

i realize this is getting way too long (new record? we'll see if i can break it) so i really need to wrap this up so i'm not hurting anyone's eyes. the party. or not party. WHATEVER IT WAS!!! idk how you do it, but i bow down to you as the official Queen of Gryffindor Parties because it is always. perfect. always!! my fav scenes and ones that i always randomly remember in b&f have always been set at a party because they're so!! perfect!!! also, can i just say that i am forever counting on you for putting me on good 70s music because i have playlist with songs sirius would unquestionably adore and a good half of them the ones you included or mentioned in b&f so keep me on the good goods. also??? your able to perfectly capture the scene with the music you choose and its so good i'll never get over it. like when Pictures of Lily came on i had to take a moment because it was just too fucking great. like i could totally see remus doing that because he's a little shit and james reacting the way he did because he's just... james. speaking of him: the only man. ever. to exist. ever!!! james potter >>>> anything and everything. and i mean everything. his and lily's dynamic is just too good and i can't wait to see how you explore it even more. and when they're at the party and they're talking and then james teases her with "headmistress" and then "professor"?? IDK WHY I LIKED IT SO MUCH BUT I DID!!!! idk i just think it really captured exactly how boys flirt and tease and it was just so cuteskgjdsgjh i can't get over it. lily's friend test too!! she is the cutest ever and i want everything good to happen to her because she deserves it. ugh. jily. them!!!!

anyway, hoping i didn't bore you to tears with this but i'm so happy b&f is back. it's what the world needs to heal (it's true. a professional told me themselves!) i love you and i love your stories and your writing and everything!!!!! (and sorry for the long rant again. i think it's my Thing.)

you have never ever bored me with these asks!! not once!! i am simply screaming. this is so wonderful and I shall be reading it multiple times :) :) :) you never cease to amaze, impress, and render emotional!!! <3

[1waizumihajime]

hey~ so awhile ago i made a uquiz that asked for some unpopular a3! opinions. here is the verdict (note: responses have only been edited for spelling, and if a response mentioned members of multiple troupes they are repeated in each section) enjoy!:

tsuzuru should become a professional gay drama fanfic writer based off the mankai company

Chikage is a cool character but if he doesn't get over his mom trauma and keeps treating women bad its gonna be a problem. Like outside of kidnapping izumi as a sabotage for the company he treated her so bad bc she's a woman and he was like "oh I realize ur not like other girls" I hate it here

Sakuya is underappreciated and deserves some more heart to heart talks.

Citron and Izumi would make a fantastic couple!!

TsuzuMizu is one of the world’s greatest love stories. The Y E A R N I N G

I think that. Chikage :)

I don’t like Masumi

why does everyone like chikage and itaru i dont understand

masumi pls stop deep breathin

Tsuzuru’s deadlines were only for the first 4 plays of the company and the fact that no one says this to him or try’s to help him with his sleep and work means they’re perfectly fine with him ruining his health if they get what they want from him (a good script) in this essay I will

if they don't release the sprites of itaru and banri's older sisters i have no choice but to assume they're hot af and also sapphic

Izumi needs to place a restraining order on Masumi

Muku has bigger duality than Itaru

Masumi is creepy

Itarun is baby

citron is a walking racist stereotype and thats why i dont like a3 :)

itaru is too good looking for his own good, love that for him

sakuya deserves the world but that's not an opinion it's just a fact

I- u. H m— u h— ...... so like- Taichi Banri and Tenma hanging out being friends. Y e s—

muku nonbinary

Yuki is a cishet, and saying he isn't when it's stated he is, and gets bullied for not being cishet makes me feel wrong

a3! writers: we addressed kazu's problems me: you didn't address shit a3! writers: we've addressed them

misumi deserves the world

Yuki is Ace and no it’s a fact people refuse to acknowledge

maybe we should talk more about how kazunari never got his conclusion and still has issues being himself but im just sayin

i don't think is actually unpopular but a3 im begging you. please stop type-casting characters and let characters other than yuki play female characters hdjkhfjkhfjs khjksh ok thanks

Misumi x Tenma is NOT valid (Sorry not sorry)

idk if this is unpopular but i wish misumi’s character was more fleshed out...his whole life can’t be 1.) triangle and 2.) parental neglect ToT

Muku has bigger duality than Itaru

cmon we could have a little izumi/banri's older sister. just for fun and banri's mild suffering

Juza is overrated

I- u. H m— u h— ...... so like- Taichi Banri and Tenma hanging out being friends. Y e s—

if they don't release the sprites of itaru and banri's older sisters i have no choice but to assume they're hot af and also sapphic

i actually don't see the appeal in SakyoIzu. idk, Izumi can do better than that

banri depressed :( thats why he angy

juza and omi superior ship

banri has good fashion taste fite me

taichi is a top tier boy <3

Taiyuki supremacy

jtszbn :]

taichi and juza good ship why does no one ship GRRR i angery

juza is way more interesting than people give him credit for! him just casually offering to cross dress...i love him. also he definitely wears eyeliner

idk man but taichi is severely underappreciated

Juza and banri are both subs but banri is a brat and makes juza top. Juza's mom has beaten god behind a 711

Nachi is best boy

Azumi needs to Stop

Uhhhh the puppy characters aren't actually that cute and Taichi is very annoying on the surface before taking into account his backstory. The characters who have passions and interests outside of just being good to you, the player, are much cuter imo

it's not an unpopular opinion, i'm literally just in love with omi

Homare’s definitely gay, I can feel it

azuma... asexual.. thank u for coming 2 my ted talk

Tasuku is a himbo. He's buff, he's stupid, and contrary to popular belief he is NOT mean, yall are just sensitive. I will die mad about this

Tasuku is a himbo. No I will not budge on this. After he stops being an asshole he BECOMES a himbo and if liber would just SHOW him being the himbo he was meant to be then I'd be able to rest in peace

Hisoka is a really good flirt

U h Hisoka is so fuvkimg short i swear to fucking god he needs to drink more fucking milk-

Beyond the Wall is not that good.

guy deserves more thirsty hoes why does he have so few give guy thirsty hoe stans

homare rights

Homare world domination

hisoka unhinge

Azuma is genderfluid.

Tsumugi and his "grandma" vibe ;)))

Homare mermaid play. We need it

Azuma deserves a hug so does Homare actually all of Winter Troupe deserves a hug

Cybird pls let me date izumi I would like to give her a kiss pls

They’re all gay

Gay

I'm gay

i’m conflicted about izumi bc on the one hand i like fleshed out female leads but on the other hand because i’m so different from her i find it hard to relate to the game sometimes

the anime is still not perfect but I like it for what it is

um i dont hate this particularly, but it annoys me how everyone ships the lead and co-lead (saku&masu, tenyuki, juban) because they have a good dynamic, like ??? yeah lol and?? but its harmless and stuff so in chill w it. only exception is tasuku and tsumu because they do have chemistry!! absolutely hinted at
