WIP Intro

Me? Planning a fourth book before starting the third one? It's more likely... Nope, it's exactly as likely as you'd think! Behold, the latest Yo-han mystery!

Title: Mine Eyes Dazzle

Genre: Murder mystery

Setting: Shanghai, 1905 (in an alternate history that has very little in common with the real place or time period)

Summary: An amateur theatre company performs The Duchess of Malfi. The director wins an award for it. The next day he's found dead at the bottom of a flight of stairs. Seo Yo-han must answer one important question: did he fall accidentally, as the inquest decided, or was he pushed, as the actors believe?

Status: Finished (posted on Wattpad and AO3)

Taglist: @lightgriffinsect, @akindofmagictoo, @oh-no-another-idea, @kittensartswriting, @joeys-piano,

@thescatteredscribbles, @the-inkwell-variable (Let me know if you want to be added/removed!)

Fun facts:

The title is a quote from The Duchess of Malfi: "Cover her face; mine eyes dazzle; she died young". I chose it specifically as a reference to Sleeping Murder by Agatha Christie, which also uses this quote.

Yo-han is the only character from the other books

Despite what you might think, the plot of TDOM has very little to do with the mystery

None of the Case-files' settings bear much resemblance to real history, but it's especially blatant with this one

Aesthetically, the main inspiration is the series Miss S (2020). Which is set thirty years later. Oops.

Adding Moth's, Glass's and Deceit's taglists in case you're interested: @akindofmagictoo, @lightgriffinsect, @original-writing, @zeenimf, @oh-no-another-idea,

Posting a sneak-peak of this now because I'm about to be In The Shit school workload-wise, so this'll take me a while to finish.

Doing some character design exploration/expression sheets for Celestia and Luna. Figuring out Celestia's weird ass anatomy while I'm at it.
