#ppg trinity house

[renaerys]

kay so i believe i’m extremely deprived of ppg/ppnkg content for stories, like i have reread your story Trinity House a good 5 times (no exaggeration👤) 😭 those 8 chapters hit hard every time i read them. The way the characters are in your story and the plot for it just intrigues me so much, i love everything about it and the ways it could go. i’m just so interested in the relationships for each team and all their dynamics, like how brute and bubbles were in their trial (i kinda believe brute seems bubbles as her little sister sometimes too) and i’m also so obsessively interested in berserk and boomer for some weird reason😭 i know you have a chapter 9 preview up and i even read that for my daily dose which is absolutely crazy for me i don’t think i’ve ever been this hooked on a story before. annnyyywayys, i hope ur doing well 😝🤙 take care of urself, you must be working hard with your sasosaku(?) stories too 😭

Okay Anon... I have been sitting on Chapter 9 of Trinity for months, leaving it at like 75% complete while I've been sinking back into the quicksand that is the Naruto fandom. This random ask delighted me so much and I went back and reread what I've got for 9. Surprisingly in decent shape. So I'll work on it this weekend for you. I wanted to finish the whole fic before the new year, which definitely isn't happening now, but I think I can swing at least one update before we say goodbye to 2022!

TRINITY HOUSE fanart 💫 By best girl @renaerys 💕

This chapter slayed me 🍷💀

[over-under-through1]

Favorite fics?

sorry this took awhile to answer Anon, i haven’t looked at my ask box in forever

there are a lot so i’ll stick to giving my absolute favorites

Fan Fic Recommendations

• As Time Goes by - hands down my favorite fic. it’s long as HECK but it kept me hooked the whole way through, i can’t even begin to count the amount of times i stayed up till 4am to finish a chapter. this got me into the fandom AND sprouted almost all of my headcannon. i could go on about this one for hours, and honestly anyone can DM me at anytime if they wanna scream with me about it.

•Beyond This Morning - honestly one of my favorite adult AU ppg fics. the sisterly development in this is *mwah* amazing. also: butch. AHHHHH. no spoilers but oh my god he’s the best. oh and uh... for mature audiences only. the author also has a new fic called Trinity House that is so far, amazing (especially for all you Punk lovers ;) )

•The Lillies Of Snow Valley - this one is by my very close friend, Avery. it’s set in the 1700’s and if you like the classics you will LOVE this. it’s very Jane Austen-y. it only has one chapter up at the moment but she’s working hard at continuing it.

• The “To Belong” series - this is by avery as well! so far there are 6 (very long) one shots in it, all explaining the background and current state of each relationship (reds,greens, and blues but there will be other couples added into the mix later on). i absolutely adore these so much. very cute (and... angsty in some cases i should warn. i cried but in a good way).

• Soul Ink - AHHHH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! this is an amazing blossick chapter fic, with an incredible and creative AU. think soulmates + tattoos. and if that doesn’t hook you enough: Brick with a kid. yeah, i screamed a lot while reading this.

• Paper Hearts - i’ll admit i’m slightly biased because i commissioned this one, but it’s honestly so amazing. this is a greens one shot and OH MY GOD THE FEELS I GOT. Butch is so cute i swear. and buttercup? the Bi in me popped out severely while reading. this deserves all the kudos in the world.

•Sick Thoughts - yet another greens fic. we got a college AU over here babyyyyy!! big greens in denial vibes in this one, and some under lying greek lore and references. this is another ongoing one.

• Hate - this is a reds fic and OH BOY i’ve reread it about 12 times at this point. there is a reason the reds are one of my favorite couples of all time and this is it.

there are more but i would be here all day linking everything i have saved. if you want any specific couple fics i have at least one for everything. thanks for the ask!

Top Tinsel Towns: 10 Surprising Cities Whose Holiday Charms Are Worth Unwrapping

Accept it, the winter holidays overshadow everything in December, whether you’re a Scrooge or a Tiny Tim. The majority of us fall somewhere in the middle. Along with the joy, there’s the stress: making the frenzied rounds of holiday parties, wandering the aisles of CVS for pre-packaged mistletoe or the last box of Hannukah candles, dutifully enduring the office potluck.

But there are some who truly adore this time of year. They festoon their homes with pine branches, pinecones, and pine-scented Febreze; they install outdoor holiday lighting that rivals the Vegas Strip. They revel in heading to the Christmas tree farm to cut down a fresh spruce, watching “Love Actually” on autorepeat, or going with that special someone to a menorah lighting.

So these folks need to find metros that share their ardor. As it turns out, some cities are more on this celebratory wavelength than others. We set out to find those festive places that go all out for tree lightings, parades, and holiday-themed everything.

“For a city to be really attractive for the holidays, it needs to offer something for everyone—from kids to the grandparents,” says Kirsten Maxwell, founder of kidsareatrip.com, a site about family activities. The events they offer, she says, need to bring every generation together.

The jolly realtor.com® data team dug into the numbers to find those magical metros that are catnip for holiday lovers. We looked at the 150 largest metros around the country and sifted them down to one per state. Our criteria were:*

Google searches for “Christmas Parade,” “Hanukkah,” and “Festivus”

Seasonal cashiers as a percentage of all employees

Percentage of realtor.com home listings with a fireplace or chimney (because, Santa)

Christmas tree and holiday decoration businesses per capita

Toy stores per capita

Alcohol consumption rates by state (holiday parties, oh my!)

Number of Christmas trees cut down per state

Percentage of all flight arrivals between Dec. 19 and Dec. 23 (to estimate how many folks are going home for the holidays)

Best cities for holiday lovers

Claire Widman

So hitch up those sleighs, and we’ll find you a holiday match. Ho ho ho.

1. Hickory, NC

Median home price: $232,000

Holiday highlight: Enjoy some of the nation’s finest Christmas tree farms … just don’t get run off the road like a Griswold.

Union Square in downtown Hickory, NC

This place takes its Yuletide festivities seriously. Every year, an 18-foot tree in the mountains of North Carolina is cut down and erected in the city square, where it’s generously decorated. The lighting takes place the week before Thanksgiving—and thousands of community members come out to watch it, and the parade beforehand. It’s a big deal.

So how does it work, you ask? “The parade wraps up downtown, and Mr. and Mrs. Claus light the tree,” says Dana Kaminske, spokeswoman for the city of Hickory. “We have hot chocolate and cookies. And the downtown retailers stay open. All the money raised from the professional floats goes into a scholarship fund.” Got it.

Before December arrives, this town is already in full holiday swing. There’s the Western Piedmont Symphony’s holiday concert, and the holiday kick-off event at the Hickory Museum of Art. Or chill out to a frontier Christmas vibe while strolling through what’s purported to be the nation’s largest collection of “rescued and restored” log cabins, in Hart Square.

2. Eugene, OR

Median home price: $337,275 Holiday highlight: More Christmas trees! No. 1 in the nation for piney production

Oregon’s Ugliest Sweater Run

Oregon's Ugliest Sweater Run via Facebook

Eugene residents love getting outdoors to run, bike, and hike, so naturally, that’s how they hail the holidays, too.

Case in point: Oregon’s Ugliest Sweater Run, which takes place here a couple of weeks before Christmas. It’s your typical 5K run, just requiring that contestants be outfitted in that hideous knitted garment an aunt bought them a few years back. If that doesn’t do it for you, try the Jingle Rush 5K, where you’re provided antlers and bells at the start of the run, and hot chocolate and cider upon completion. Heck, the city’s nickname is Track City U.S.A. Winners never quit!

To stave off dehydration, head over to the Holiday Cocktail Party at the Provisions Market Hall. You’ll guzzle holiday libations and beer from local breweries, all while digging Rat Pack-era tunes.

3. Buffalo, NY

Median home price: $166,525 Holiday strength: Great for kids, lousy for bank accounts—the highest concentration of toy stores per capita

Even the deer love Buffalo during the holidays.

In the 19th century, Buffalo was one of the first cities to install electric streetlights, earning it the nickname City of Light. They’re still gaga over their lights here, as evidenced by the ultracool display of more than a million LEDs that you’ll see as you drive through the Fairgrounds Festival of Lights. More than 15,000 cars wind their way through the spectacle during a two-week period every December.

“This past Saturday, we had 1,500 carloads,” says Marty Biniasz, marketing manager at Erie County Fairgrounds. “Drivers can listen to Ho-Ho Radio and our holiday soundtrack as they drive through.” After all, what would a festival of lights be without Ho-Ho Radio?

The Fairgrounds also has a 3,000-square-foot maze. Once you find your way out, you can grab your Santa suit and head over to SantaCon Buffalo for drinks with 5,000 other Santas.

Did we mention that Fisher-Price, one of the world’s largest toy companies, is based in the Buffalo region?

4. Pittsburgh, PA

Median home price: $171,500 Holiday highlight: Hi, Mom! An unusually high number of townies return home for the holidays.  

PPG Place Ice Rink

During the mid-20th century, Pittsburgh was a steel and coal-producing behemoth, and transporting those products required a massive network of railroads and locomotives. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise to hear that model trains play a big role in the Steel City’s holiday celebrations.

“There were so many [trains] in Western Pennsylvania,” says Bill Humphrey, public relations director and vice president of the Western Pennsylvania Model Railroad Museum. “People think of us around Christmas time, which all goes back to the tradition of setting up a model train around your Christmas tree.”

During the holiday months, the museum opens up and guests pile in to share nostalgia for the city’s past. The museum’s best-known model train is a 1/87th scale model that replicates the network of trains and tracks that ran between Pittsburgh and Cumberland, MA, in the summer of 1952.

But it’s not all diesel and ironworks here. The Winter Flower Show and Light Garden at the Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens is another December tradition. Luminous orbs, oversized ornaments, and festive lights add to the allure of orchids and poinsettias.

5. Sarasota, FL

Median home price: $350,000 Holiday strength: Drink up! Alcohol consumption spikes here in December, thanks to a plethora of parties.

Venice Christmas Boat Parade

When you think of the holidays, you probably picture snow and snowball fights—not temperatures in the high 60s to low 70s. That doesn’t stop folks here from celebrating hard. So if you want the festive atmosphere without the chill, then Sarasota might be your place. Just make sure to bring your boat!

The annual Venice Christmas Boat Parade floats along the waterways from South Nokomis Beach to North Venice Beach. Participating boats are transformed into decorated Christmas floats with lit-up reindeer and palm trees.There’s also the Downtown Sarasota Tree Lighting Celebration and the Jazz Christmas Concert at the Centennial Park.

Feeling wistful for the white stuff? Swing by Snow Fest Sarasota, where you and your children can play in manmade snow. The free event attracts around 15,000 guests and offers pony rides, snowman building, and jelly bean juggling—because why not?

6. Hartford, CT

Median home price: $259,950 Holiday strength: A fine place to celebrate eight crazy nights

Winter in Hartford

Cue the Hanukkah celebrations: Connecticut has one of the highest concentrations of Jewish residents in the country.

To kick off the first day of Hanukkah, townies gather at the Blue Back Square in West Hartford for a menorah-lighting ceremony held by Chabad of Greater Hartford, a community group. Afterwards, they get to watch a live carving of an ice menorah and 3-D dreidel printing. Be honest: You’re curious about the dreidel printing.

“In West Hartford, around 25% of the population is Jewish,” says Susannah MacNeil, associate vice president of the Jewish Federation of Greater Hartford. “We have a very vibrant community and a wide variety of Hanukkah celebrations. And latke tastings.”

Other holiday entertainment in the region includes the Hartford Symphony Orchestra and the Hartford Gay Men’s Chorus, which regales the crowds with its annual fave, “Nutcracker: Men in Tights.”

7. Providence, RI

Median home price: $342,450 Holiday highlight: Need help with holiday decor? You’re in the right place.

Providence, RI

One of the world’s largest toy makers calls the Providence region home: Hasbro, the maker of Monopoly and My Little Pony. And Providence sure loves its toys.

“The holidays are our time of the year,” says Emily Brownell, manager at Henry Bear’s Park, a mega toystore in Providence.

Providence has all the holiday attractions you’d expect, plus a few extra. You can watch “A Christmas Carol,” which will be performed for the 40th year at Trinity Rep in downtown Providence. Then you can throw on some holiday attire and run the holiday-themed F.I.T. ‘Mas 5K Trail Race-TrailFecta. Want to show the state love even on your Christmas tree? Swing by the visitor center at the Rhode Island State House, where Rhode Island ornaments are on sale. Deck the halls!

8. Salisbury, MD

Median home price: $299,950 Holiday highlights: Throw a rock in any direction in December, and you’ll hit either a holiday shop or a Christmas parade. So don’t throw rocks, OK? 

In Salisbury, holiday traditions seem to stick around. There’s the annual Salisbury Christmas Parade, from Mount Hermon Road to East Main Street, which has been going strong for 71 years. The parade includes fire trucks, marching bands, Santa Claus, and Saul the Salisbury Jaycees Bear.

The Emmanuel Wesleyan Church in Salisbury hosts a Christmas Eve candlelight service and a Christmas play called “How to Have the Best Christmas Ever!” Be prepared to take notes.

In nearby Ocean City, which is part of the Salisbury metro area, holiday lovers can enjoy the Winterfest of Lights. This is the 25th year of the event, which illuminates more than 1 million light bulbs. Imagine the electricity bill!

9. St. Louis, MO

Median home price: $189,950 Holiday highlight: An exceptionally high concentration of fireplaces. Cuddle up!

St. Louis

Anheuser-Busch, the iconic St. Louis company, shows its appreciation for the city by hosting an annual Brewery Lights event that runs from mid-November to the end of December. It features s’mores, ice skating, and—duh—beer. Just save the Bud and Michelob Light for when your skates are off.

The classic holiday activities make the city great for the holidays, says Anthony Paraino, director of public relations of Explore St. Louis. “People come into town from all over, just to see the light displays,” he says. Endless showings of “Meet Me in St. Louis” on TCM don’t hurt the tourism trade, either.

10. Lafayette, LA

Median home price: $210,000 Holiday highlight: Shopping and shellfish

Lafayette stands out for its unique take on holiday traditions. This shrimping town bills its season as Christmas on the Cajun Coast. So of course, festivities include a decorated boat parade down the bayou.

“Santa and some of his helpers and the mayor turn on the city’s [Christmas] lights, and then all the kids gather around the shrimp boat to take photos,” says Carrie Stansbury, executive director of the Cajun Coast and Convention Bureau. Delicious.

Heyy, Jo! I’ve been following your stories, both the Naruto and PPG ones on ao3 for quite a while now and I must say you’ve become one of my favorite authors ever on that site! <3 I’m just always so infatuated with the way you write your chapters, the character’s personalities and dialogues, the actions, basically everything! I just love it very so and reading and even rereading your stories never gets tiring for me at all. Being in both fandoms is a blessing and a win for everyone.

If it ain’t Jo, you gotta go!

and I also hope it isn’t a bother to ask if you plan to update the ppg stories as well? Truth be told I did find you from those stories and then discovered you wrote for Naruto as well! but anyways, I hope your afternoon is going well!

Thanks for reading my fics! I’m pretty focused on Naruto these days, but I’m planning on continuing Trinity House here and there. Don’t really have much energy for other stuff at the moment, but that could change!

[renaerys]

hi when is trinity house gonna come out

I’m not working on PPG stuff right now so I can’t really say.

[renaerys]

no because whatever’s going on with the punks in your story is so interesting oml, like i truly wonder what happened with them 😭 i cant wait for the next chapters to Trinity House, if they come soon!

I just posted a preview on my Instagram of the next chapter! I'm getting back to it, so if you're still reading it then you'll see the update soon. :)

[genovah]

3am doodles 😌🍷

[renaerys]

Can you talk about why you chose not to make Blues canon in trinity? I want to read it but I can't deal with it not being color coded. Will you do other fanfics that do color code only?

Okay... I got an Ask that was in a similar vein to this a little while ago, and I decided to give that one the benefit of the doubt and assume they were genuinely trying to be supportive and wanted to know what I thought. I’m not going to do that for this Ask. 

If you don’t like a pairing that is tagged in a fic, you don’t have to read the fic. You also don’t have to complain to the writer about it. That behavior is entitled and juvenile, and it makes you look like a jerk. The only time you get to have any kind of say in what someone writes is if they have agreed to allow you to commission them, and that’s not what’s happening here. 

Why did I not make Blues a romantic pairing in Trinity House? Because I felt like it, that’s why. Because Robbles is a cool ship. Because I like the idea that Blues can have a meaningful, complex friendship. Because there are a ton of great alternatives for you to seek out if you absolutely need to have romantic Blues. If you have such a huge problem with that choice, then I invite you to click that back button and read something else. I also strongly encourage you to think about how you talk to creators. This Ask comes off as extremely pretentious and selfish, whether or not that was your intention. Re-read what you wrote and ask yourself, would I say this to someone’s face? I suspect the answer is no, since you chose to send this anonymously. 

[renaerys]

Fanfic Year in Review

I don’t do a lot of these types of posts, but you know what, I finished a huge project in 2020 so let’s go. Thanks so much to my fellow writers @quarantined-fics and @powerpuff-ali for the tag!

I’ll put it under a Read More for anyone who is interested in hearing about some BTM shenanigans.

1) List of fics completed this year in the order they were finished:

Beyond This Morning - My Adult AU PPGxRRB project, and my first proper foray into this fandom as an active contributor. It has a few completed one-shot sequels in the same series.

Shooketh, Not Stirred Series - The high school AU featuring Reds. These are all complete, though I may add more one-shots to it in the future!

I have other stuff on my AO3 account for PPG, including some ongoing stuff. Check it out if you like. :)

2) Number of words written: I don’t know how to figure that out for 2020 only. A lot.

3) Your most popular fic: Beyond This Morning is probably the most popular. I have some Miraculous Ladybug fics that are pretty up there too, but I’m not really active in that fandom as much anymore.

4) Your personal fav: That’s hard... I can’t decide between the original Shook one-shot and Trinity House. I loved the former because it was an homage to my favorite PPG episode, Stuck Up, Up and Away. Blossom being HBIC like she invented it is always going to be my favorite thing ever. And I’m really enjoying Trinity House because it feels different from my other work. I like the spooky aspect of the House, the mixups in the teams, getting to write the Punks, and Brick trying his best to flirt. It’s a melting pot of fun shit. 

5) Your fav scene: Reds watching Frozen with Brisa in Beyond This Morning. Also the opening scene in Chapter 16 with Brick alone and grieving. Also the fight scene in Chapter 14 where Blossom is in charge of everything and winning. I reread those every now and then. 

6) A fic or scene that challenged you: Trinity House in general is challenging for me. It has a combination of thriller/horror elements, comedy, and mystery that are super fun, but also very world-build-y, so it’s a constant struggle to convey information while keeping the focus on the characters’ journeys. I’m really enjoying it, but it’s been hard. The latest chapter with Brick’s team’s challenge was especially taxing, but I really like how it turned out!

7) A line of writing you’re proud of:

“Water under the bridge, that. Flooded now. Dead bodies always float to the surface no matter how lovely and dark the waters appear from the shore.” - Chapter 11 when Buttercup confronts Ace

8) A comment that touched you:

Too many to count. I think the ones that really get me are the ones where people call out things that happened in prior chapters and go, “I KNEW that meant something!” Finding foreshadowing is hugely satisfying, and I like that those people care enough about my stories to pay attention not just to the plot, but to the word choice and the allegories. I remember one person realized that the lab infiltration in the last few chapters of BTM was full of Dante’s Inferno/katabatic journey imagery. That had me yelling for joy because yeah, you’re right and you should say it loudly!

9) Something that inspired your writing:

I like superhero stories, but I often find them shallow in mainstream media. There are some exceptions, and I definitely have drawn inspiration from more mature shows like The Boys and Titans wrt the “realistic” superhero theme. But mostly, I care about women and their stories, and I wanted to write something that was centered on that. PPG has always been a beloved show since I was a little kid. I loved how the Girls are all very different, yet they are able to succeed in their own ways. 

I also really wanted to read a specific type of story that I wasn’t seeing in the fandom, so I had to write it myself. I’m really glad I did.

10) Your proudest accomplishment (that one scene; finally finishing that one fic; posting your first fic; etc):

Honestly just finishing BTM and feeling super good about the quality of it feels like a big accomplishment for me. I had a pretty regular update schedule and I stuck to it, for the most part. I look back on it and I see things I could have done better or differently, but that’s the learning process. And I think the lessons learned will serve me well in the sequel...

11) Do you have any writing goals for the next year?

The BTM sequel, yes! I have not previously revealed the title I think, so here it is for those of you who bravely made it to the end of this post: The Alchemy of Us. That’s going to start posting pretty soon. I have some fun ideas for it, and I’m putting a lot of effort into it. I really want it to be good, and I think I’ve learned a lot from BTM and Trinity that will serve me well in making Alchemy the best fic I’ve written when I start posting. 

Trinity House is also ongoing. I’ll be writing that concurrently with the sequel until it’s finished. 

***

There are a number of good writers in this fandom! I think most of them have been tagged already, but in case you’re interested, I’m tagging @kiebs and @avesthetea

[renaerys]

I think it's interesting how for your new fic you opted to not have the blues as couple. That's a very bold decision. You get used to seeing all of the counterparts together so when you don't it feels and looks weird. The blues aren't my ship so it doesn't bother me a lot but I admit it does feel weird knowing the reds and greens will be together and not the blues. I imagine that decision alienated some people not seeing their ship together. What prompted you to make such a risky decision?

I also ship Robbles and wanted to try them out. They are a lovely ship and I really wanted Robin to have a more prominent role this time as opposed to “the Normie friend in the background”. Perhaps just as importantly, I was interested in exploring Blues as friends years after a prior romantic relationship between them didn’t work out. Romantic love is great, but it isn’t the only type of important love. The idea of counterparts is cool, but why should it be tied inextricably to sexual/romantic love? Platonic love is just as, if not more, powerful a connection. And layering in issues of a past breakup and only one of them having found romantic happiness after that adds more tension and nuance to test the strength of their friendship.

And there are other interpretations of “counterpart” that are less positive, which is why including the Punks has been interesting. When you recognize negative traits in another person that are closely reflective of your own flaws and shortcomings, that is hard to reckon with. We usually don’t like seeing that because it more clearly illuminates our own negative traits. How a person works through that and reacts to that other person says a lot about them, and that’s something I wanted to explore a bit. Blues are one of several different dynamics through which I can examine that.

If people are so averse to Blues not being together that they can’t bring themselves to try out this fic, then I don’t hold that against them. We all got our preferences. But they are missing out, and that’s really too bad for them!

[renaerys]

Okay so I’m the anon who wanted to wait until Chapter 3 of Trinity house. I ended up getting busy but!! I caught up to your work and I absolutely love everyone’s dynamics. As someone mentioned in the comments on Ao3 the increase in humanity amongst the group members is something so sweet to watch. The arc between all 9 of them is something so exciting to observe because there’s no one like them! You would think that being the minority who goes through what they go through they’d develop stronger bonds but they didn’t. Their own problems and their own egos and prides never really let them and so there’s this whole thing going on between them and it sucks because really, who else would understand how to deal with it all other than the very people they’re distancing themselves from? Ughh I wish I could properly articulate my thoughts but to conclude, keep it up!! I can’t wait to see the development in both their relationships and the mystery of the haunted house. :)

Hey, that's great that you got around to reading Trinity House! I'm so glad you are enjoying the ride. I'm very interested in the way the 9 of them reveal more of their humanity to each other and to themselves as they pass the time happily or traumatically at the House. The last chapter was something of a turning point for a lot of the characters, so we'll see more of those vulnerable, human moments between them now. The Super thing is a link between them all and should be one way for them to find common ground, but I agree with you completely that other aspects of them--personality, goals, ego, all the things that make them human (i.e., not Super)--are what rule them and their relationships to one another. I find that very relatable from a story-telling perspective, and if I've understood you correctly, I think it's resonated with you as well, which is really cool!

That being said, all of them being trapped at the House together and having these powers and putting their lives on the line for each other does have an effect on them. I hope that by the last chapter, I'll have surprised everyone a bit with how far some of these characters come from the first meeting in Chapter 1. Thanks so much for giving my fic a shot! I hope you enjoy the rest of the chapters as I get to them. There are only a few left. :)

[renaerys]

I am SHOUTING over the Trinity update! They're gonna fight and I'm scared but also I can't wait. I don't know if I want Brick or Berserk to win! Your Berserk is so sad. I don't know how else to describe it. I want to smack her and also give her a hug. I love this update SO FREAKIN MUCH!

Oh wow, thank you! Yeah, heads up y'all, there's a new chapter of Trinity House live on AO3 as of last night! Check it out. :)

Berserk is sad, and I'm glad you mentioned that! I think she's the type who is easy to dislike, but if you pay attention to her scenes there's a little more depth and nuance to her, and she's holding onto some pain. Perhaps after she and Brick smack each other around a bit, Boomer will give her a hug... 👀

[renaerys]

hello! i just wanted to say i spent sooo long with a reader's block but then i decided to start reading trinity house and now i'm hooked! so thank you so much, lol. i'm also a big fan of btm and all your ppg fics, by the way. absolutely love your work <3

Thank you very much for this message and for reading my fics! I’m glad you’ve found a way past that reader’s block and decided to take a chance on Trinity House. :) I should be updating that one very soon. 👀

[renaerys]

Will Trinity House be longer than BTM or around the same number of chapters?

It will be much shorter actually. I’d say we’re roughly about halfway through (ish).
