Bound: A Lick and a Promise by @tackytigerfic

Almost to the last stop of my tour of binds I made for Tacky! This is, of course, A Lick and a Promise. The fic itself is a delight - case fic with a healthy serving of "we keep accidentally having crazy amazing sex" and then a big dollop of dark angst on top to finish. Without spoiling anything, I can say that this fic gives me some light horror/thriller vibes, and I took that and RAN with it for the design.

(I...got the fic's tagline wrong on the back, which is a totally different but equally significant kind of horror. Sorry, Tacky.)

I hand-designed the creepy branches for the cover and used a big sans serif font to give Stephen King in the 80s feelings. The back cover involved me purchasing SVG art of "a wizarding school" off Etsy to ensure the TERF-in-chief didn't benefit directly.

I hand-sewed these grey and red endbands using cotton embroidery floss and I lovvvvvvve how they came out -- so neat and shiny!

But I think my favorite part of the bind is the blood-red endpapers (thematicccc, just saying) that are literally just cardstock from a Dollarama pad of scrapbook paper but match everything SO perfectly.

I chose a slightly antique looking font for gothic vibes and used rawpixel svg files for the chapter header image.

This was my first legal quarto bind and I really love the size/heft of this story in this format which is so pleasingly easy to hold in one hand. It wound up just over 300 pages.

All in all, a really fun bind for me! It went so smoothly.

I love how, in the tags, sugar daddy eclipse is written as "sugar!clip", bc in my head it implies he's made of sugar. It makes me want to lick him.

...Not that I didn't want to lick him before

Eclipse wouldn't stop you from licking him, but fair warning - he WILL return the favor.

the doctor arrives in the middle of a warzone and says: “give it time, everywhere’s a beach eventually” . and suddenly his inconceivable age becomes evident: he’s more of a geological process than a man. erosion is an inevitability

the gentle tide will lap at the landmines on the sand and smooth them into seaglass. no conflict lasts. that profoundly alien, eternal perspective demonstrated in just one line — ruby realises this person has seen everything and knows better than any of us that in the end all is sand and water and story and stillness

as you’ve probably already figured out, this is from BOOM. once again moffat appreciators how are we doing this fine evening

Shy affection prompts: ”I want our kids to have your eyes.” + Javelia plssssssss

What if Amelia and Javi really, really couldn't be responsible people, despite Ollie, and Fern, and Mr. Cranston all telling them over and over again: "Your luck will run out"?

What if Amelia said something romantic in the aftermath of a long night of rolling around without a condom or any other kind of birth control, as a joke, as a thought about the future--but it turned into something like self-fulfilling prophecy?

Javi really didn't mind being the mom, being the one stuck with morning sickness, and body aches, and the birthing process, but it was a little insane how on point Amelia's announcement to the universe turned out to be...

question for everyone upset by the insurance CEO shooting:

do you cry for every mass murderer or just the rich ones?

Imagine looking back at some old major marvel arcs and I love how a good amount of Acts of Vengeance is just Magneto and Red Skull hating on each other with Magneto ultimately just locking him in a dark ass basement threatening to get his ass if he leaves. Modern Erik would’ve killed him there, but I respect the scare tatic kinda

i can appreciate psychological warfare .... however i also heavily endorse beating nazis to death on sight

I’ll be so glad when I’m done with this class so I can get back into writing. I got ideas and they need to be shared.
