Hi, I love your radioapple fics so much ❤️ I'm a very picky person and I was looking for a long time for radioapple fics that I'd enjoy. And then I found your ao3 and OMG I LOVEEEEEE YOUR RADIOAPPLE SERIES. Your writing style is amazing (like really, I'm actually learning new english words thanks to you). Also you manage to capture Alastor's personality perfectly ❤️ (which I personally think isn't too easy cause he's a big walking mystery). I soooo can't wait for the next chapters! (but I know writing takes time so I'll wait patiently ❤️)
I also wanted to ask if it would be okay if I maybe drew some of the scenes from your fics (ofc I'll credit you and your work if I post it)?
Ahhhh thank you so much 😍😍 As one picky reader to another, I'm glad I could satisfy that itch!
fdo;kn;nwe I am so weak to compliments on my characterization AND writing style, so I'm currently on my knees right now, thanking you profusely. (I love learning new words too :3 the English language is a MESS, but it does have some nifty words from time to time).
Alastor is pretty hard to right, but I think I'm getting used to his character. Or, at least the character I have of him in my head based on what we know about him from the show LOL
The next chapter should be posted relatively soon! I'm almost done with it ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
And YES OF COURSE (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`) Feel free to draw scenes from my fic anytime! This is a blanket statement to anyone else with that question: If you want to draw scenes from my fics, you have my full and complete permission! With credit, of course, of course, but I would also LOVE to see anything you guys draw!
Feel free to @ me too if you end up posting it online! I'll gobble it up immediately.

imagine if after the transmigration shen qingqiu became a combination of shen yuan and shen jiu, not in a "second person living in my head" kind of way, but a "this house is haunted and carries the echoes of the dead" kind of way; imagine shen yuan having nightmares about a house, a fire, a faceless boy behind a door he can't remember; imagine him having flashes of emotions he doesn't understand, rage at a name he doesn't recognize, helplessness when yue qingyuan apologizes for something he won't mention, nausea when ning yingying says the name "a-luo"; imagine parts of his own self have changed too, how he now likes bows in his hair, pretty flowers and flowing robes, but can no longer stand a stranger's touch, a man's touch, yet he longs for the brothels, but never sexually, only fondly, like there's something there he misses. there are many empty spaces in his heart where he feels something is missing

I'm normally a very slow reader of published novels, but I devoured The Hands of the Emperor by Victoria Goddard and now I can NOT stop thinking about it.
Everyone who has read my Fire Lord Zuko content knows how much I love 1) people of power working tirelessly to make the world a better place for all; and b) kings, slowly being crushed under the weight of their crown and duty, finding love and care in their loyal servants and staff
Except this story is more. The Emperor is worshiped and treated as a god, bound by extreme taboos and protocols that he can't break. It's about his staff (his found family) looking BEYOND the exterior of godhood and finding the human being underneath - who is dying under the weight of being the Emperor - and deciding to reach out, even if by acknowledging his humanity they are technically breaking many laws.
God this book is about so many things, including:
Found family can be the Last Emperor and his senior members of staff
The Emperor learning how to be human again with the help of his friends
There's no romance in this book. The deep friendships are the beating heart of this story, and they very much Love each other.
Breaking down a previously corrupt imperial empire through hard work and radial reforms, leading to sweeping changes including UNIVERSAL INCOME
Embracing cultural heritage, even in the heart of the imperial palace. Our main character is both one of the highest ranking members of government and from an islander culture, and he dedicates himself to both
The struggle for your family (who have a case of tall poppy syndrome, and live far far away from the capital and palace) to see you as a respected adult and understand all of your (many, MANY) achievements, even when you're very literally brought the Emperor home with you.
This book has some BEAUTIFUL confrontations, take-downs, and revelations based on the past two points (and more). If you underestimate or insult our main character, You Will Regret It. Watching him lose his temper is a glorious thing to behold.
Anyway I'm pretty sure this just became my all-time favourite book, because it's beautifully written and touches on all of my favourite tropes.
