[carryonthroughtheages]

Carry On Through the Ages 2024 Masterlist

COTTA is a Simon Snow fandom event where content creators celebrate their love of history along with their love of Snowbaz. We had open posting this past week, and I am so excited to see the incredible content everyone came up with!

Here's a handy list of contributions:

Fanfiction:

(You can also view our collection over at AO3 here)

"give them hope, give them strength, give them life" by @wellbelesbian (Tumblr post) Rated M, Chapters 2/2 posted, late 20th century AU.

A look into Simon and Baz's life through the years. Set after Shoulder To Shoulder, Hand To Hand (from COTTA 2023).

"Fin de siècle" by @ninemagicks (Tumblr post) Rated T, Chapters 1/5 posted, a turn-of-the-20th-century AU.

It's 1900, and as one century is set to be put to rest, its successor seems destined for a treacherous start. T. Basilton Grimm-Pitch, famed Book Keeper, spends his days repairing magickal texts infected by a rampaging spell-chewing malaise. When he receives a knock at the door late one night, he allows a stranger to slip into his life whom it might prove difficult to ever be rid of... ...Simon Snow, naturally, is no ordinary customer. He couldn't tell you the last book he read if his life depended on it, for one thing. The other thing is that he's really a thief, and one on a mission. No magickal bookshop or much-maligned Book Keeper is safe...

"The Bishop's Escape" by @run-for-chamo-miles (Tumblr post) Rated M, Chapter 1/1 posted, medieval era AU

Simon and Baz find a connection. Then, they try to hold onto it. Baz has to battle the conformist voices in his head, and Simon needs some time before he’s ready to open up about his past.

"My Favorite Things" by @run-for-chamo-miles (Tumblr post) Rated T, Chapter 1/1 posted, 1960's AU

1965; Simon gets Baz tickets to a show at ABC Theatre.

"In Truth" by @fiend-for-culture (Tumblr post) Rated M, Chapters 2/12 posted, Regency era AU

A Regency Era AU in which the long absent Tyrannus Basilton makes a reappearance in society at the start of London's Social Season much to the thrill and torment of his former roommate one Simon Snow.

Fanart:

“Spit it out Pitch, I know you’re plotting something!” by @alexalexinii (Film Noir)

"An old photograph" by @ic3que3n (inspired by a vintage photograph)

"Hostis Humani Generis" by @lamentable-comedy (Pirates!)

"Soda Jerk" by @rimeswithpurple (Norman Rockwell inspired, 1950's)

"A Prophesied Rivalry" by @iamamythologicalcreature (Ancient Egyptian AU, collab with @monbons)

"Baz and the Prophecy" by @monbons (Ancient Egyptian AU, collab with @iamamythologicalcreature)

Thank you everyone for a truly phenomenal event!

And a huge thank you to @bazzybelle for creating this fandom event in the first place. Thank you so much for trusting me with this <3

See you again next year for COTTA 2025!

Happy 27th!

if simon snow had to get out of bed everyday to slay magical monsters AND lead a 7 year long homoerotic antagonistic relationship with his arch nemesis, then i can get out of bed too.

Tyrannus Basilton Grimm-Pitch🦇

A collection of Iconic items from the Carry On series by Rainbow Rowell

I tried my bestest to be as accurate as possible but I did took some ✨creative liberties✨ and now i can ramble about them! my fav might be Baz's wand, adding pretty carving and flowers (i looooooove lily of the valley) to the hilt just felt right to me, like Baz is so pretty, he needs to have pretty thigns! And Simon's wand, like, it creates chaos when he uses it so u know, smoke and cracks also felt fitting 😌 Another head-cannon I have is that Baz might have two double sets of fangs just because it looks cool sorry not sorry. There's a few more items that i played with the colours so they would fit better.

So yeah, hope y'all like it! 🧡

it’s gonna be may (birth month!)

my artwork for @coartremix ! I’m so keen to see this remixed :) first artwork done after my mega injury and I’m surprised it turned this good

[bookbloghellscape]

[moux-xe]

[vebokki]

number one truther of simon drools in his sleep and baz finds it terribly charming

*rolls up 2 months late with an iced coffee and a full backstory of character development plus a filler episode*

I FINISHED MY @coartremix FINALLY

I got @saintapplebees absolutely adorable piece and was inspired to be utterly sappy while taking every creative liberty the word “sensual” allowed (I would apologize but we’d all know I’d be lying).

I hope you enjoy it! Without further ado:

I played with color and style and lighting a bit because it was already catastrophically late why not and had an utterly delightful time with this piece. I missed drawing these two nerds🖤

Thank you @ic3-que3n for running this and for your patience with my endless deluge of The Horrors™️, (which continue as I post this from Midway airport flying to a funeral 😅 )

“You have to pretend you get an endgame. You have to carry on like you will; otherwise, you can't carry on at all.” ― Rainbow Rowell, Carry On

[letraspal]

“It’s a memory book,” he says. “They used to give them out at Watford before the Mage took over. At your leavers ball. It’s got class pictures from every year and little stories…” He holds the book open to a page full of photos. It makes me wish I had something like it—I don’t have any pictures of myself or my friends.

Or, fulfilling Simon’s wish (and mine tbh).

❤️ Snowbaz fanart ❤️

Hi! How are you? 🌸 Is my first time using Tumblr haha so I really don’t know how posting works yet 😶‍🌫️

But anyways haha, this is a fanart I made last year about Carry On ✨

Is being a while since I drew it, so now I think on a bunch of things I would do different about it (specially that messy lineart 🤦🏻‍♀️😂) but well maybe I do a colored redraw on the future 🕺🏻

I hope you like it and I hope we meet again soon~ 🌙

[pebbleaf]

Not even remotely used to traditional art but I’m starting Inktober like a day late with fanart from one of my favourite book series!!

Re read the whole thing like a month or so ago and they haven’t left my brain since
