Now that you finished IA (presume I asked this after you read the epilogue), I first wanted to thank you for reading & liveblogging it. I don't think I can put my appreciation in thankfulness into words, ever, but... know that it validates all the work I put into it. Simply by knowing it brings others joy & thusly is worth doing well.

AnYwAyS - Can you rank the POV characters aka all Teams + Soph like you did for the other fanfic? (but like, all the single characters, I mean that's only -checks list-... 16 characters.) OR - Can you do a Fuck Marry Kill with each team from the two books, minus Soph cuz she's still a minor in those (and also, yknow, for it working purposes).

Much much much love to you, Riva <3

Sorry for taking so long to answer this it's been in my drafts for way too long I live in shame

First of all you're very welcome! I had a good time reading Irish Problems and Italian Affairs and let's be real I also learned some new things along the way and (as I love to say) where else do I get to discuss the story I'm reading with the freaking author?? and get some behind the scene information and little tidbits of lore too! It's like the directors cut of reading here :D

but! AnYwAyS ;) why not do both?

Ranking of the IA characters from my personal fav to 'they're there too':

Patrick "Paddy" O'Neill

Gwendolyn "Gwen" Higgins

Lovino Vargas

Feliciano Vargas

Arthur Kirkland

Fabio Bellini

Charlie Higgins

Marco Bontade

Robert Bailey

Gabriella Acerbi

Michele Vento

Harry O'Connel

Tahir Rashid

Francesco Belfari

Sophie O'Connel

Lorenzo Bontade

Maeve

Docetto Acerbi

Arby (imagine him like a mile below the other characters)

and yay I don't think I ever play fuck marry kill here :D so let's play.

Team Ireland: fuck charlie, marry paddy, kill harry (sorry but paddy is just.. I think I'd get along with him tho more in a friendship kind of relationship)

Team Sicily: fuck michele, marry marco, kill lorenzo (micheles emotional baggage is just too much for me but marco seems like a sensible choice to marry? sorry lorenzo rip)

Team Feli: fuck francesco, marry feliciano, kill dolco (sorry dolco rip)

Team Lovi: how do you expect me to make a desicion on this one after what happened in the last chapter? if I abolutely have to: fuck lovino, marry gabriella, kill fabio

Team England: fuck robert, marry arthur, kill tahir (Arthur is an A grade asshole in IP and I love that, I can fix him (probably not)

Did you expect any of my answers?

Thank you for keeping up with me and my sometimes very slow reading process and even bigger thank you for talking to me and elaborating on the characters and the story! It would not have been the same without all those talks and chats <3
