hey dyre what's your favorite line you've written recently? or barring that what is the most unhinged/out of left field plot point you've either written, planned, or considered?
Ooh, such fun ones. Thank you! May I do both?
I'm gun do both.
Sticking to Before Deluca here, as it has my soul.
Favorite recent line is actually two that play off each other:
Stolen kisses were a delicious treat, a secret decadence. Of course not everyone took so well to even our tempered intimacy, our whispered epithets…and they were delicious too.
As for the unhinged plot point, I actually have one that was written and in there and then removed but kept canonical--they simply have no concrete memory of it--because it was just too much.
A brief summary:
They were held captive for an indeterminate amount of time by a possessive and domineering vampiric tree-monster who pampered them and cared for them and made them believe they loved him and wanted to be there and only released them because his blood alone wasn't enough to sustain them and they were dying (he did not know they'd come back).
It's brought up, with terrible implications of things done during their time with him. It is severely messed up and I am not entirely sure why I put it in there, but it does fit into the odyssey-like vibe their life at sea has and offers a convenient tie-in to something planned for the series so it's canon. Just...not the chapter of what actually happened, because there's enough awful things I put them through in this book. That one didn't need to be explicitly shown (kept it for myself though, because I quite like how it came out and it gives me the willies).
