#twc Mason

F says that M was smiling all morning the day after they hooked up with the detective in the car? why 👀 what made that time different from all the others for them 👀

Things are getting more emotionally involved for M with the MC, though they don't recognise that just yet.

Sleeping with the MC isn't just becoming about the pleasure of sex, but something much deeper and bonding.

When M realises this, it's going to be an AWESOME scene to write, and I am shaking with excitement to write it when it comes, hehe! :D

Thank you so much for the ask! :)

been trying to keep myself sane in the busiest period of my life with mason wayhaven

The other members of Unit Bravo calling A out on their shit regarding the detective.

We love good friends.

The Wayhaven police and fire departments collaborated for a calendar for charity and they sent over the detective to model with the other firefighters

Nate bought one to support the cause and hung it in the warehouse kitchen:

thinking about how I think each member of UB would romanticize and be in awe of the little indent left on their finger (or even better the detective’s finger) from wearing a ring too long that seems to take forever to go back to normal if they were married to the detective and had to take their ring off for some reason

Adam, texting: Answer your phone Mason, texting back: Wait a minute, I can’t find my phone Adam: Understood Adam, 5 minutes later: You’re a terrible person. You know you’re killing me. You’re killing me, Mason.

Remember how cunty mason was in book 1

"You really think you'll be sticking around me for that long?"

"Of course I will."

while i love m’s route, i have such a gripe with the non-fwb route. like it’s so obvious that the route is written with fwb to lovers route in mind, which is completely fine (and a route that i love so so much a la vanessa & mason). but i just wish that if that was the case then there was a caveat in b1 when you lock in your li that this route is only accessible via a fwb route. because if you offer the non-fwb route then the dialogue should reflect & respect that and it clearly doesn’t? like what do you mean m propositions the detective the night before, they say no, and then the next day m is propositioning them again as if last night didn’t happen??? and then in book3 in the whole bakery scene debacle there’s literally no choice to get mad and be like ‘we’re not even sleeping together, why are you still hanging around me?’ like i know that m being unaware is the crux of the route but it just doesn’t work in the non-fwb route — like it could if it was acknowledged ugh idk.

Ok, after reading through once for all RO's and then a second time for the M route (they have my heart in a chokehold, please Seraphinite) I have a DYING question to ask which you may or may not wish to fully answer: I noticed on the M route multiple occurrences of M/the Dectective touching one another and soothing the other immediately like a kind of instant calming remedy. Obviously, for M this ties very much into the smoking thing and the pheromones - but why does it work in a similar way the other way around to the Detective? Why do they get soothed by M's touch? Is it intentional that this doesn't seem to be as obvious/effective with the other three RO's? Or am I just reading way too hard into the M route because I love them so much? And if you don't want to answer this due to any spoilers etc, then can I be super cheeky and simply ask: will we find out more about the M pheromone situation in book 4? P.S thank you so much for all the work you do, your writing is amazing and I honestly feel so lucky to have even found such amazing writing! <3

Good catch!

It's mostly to do with how I wanted M's route to be a physical kind of romance.

Sexually, yes, if the player wants that, but I mean more that the way they show and express themselves is more through touch.

The MC and M anchor each other, and their tether is through the physical touch (unlike say, A, who is more the gazes—there's A LOT of gazing in that route because the way they express is through looks).

That physical tether and anchoring to each other is an instant thing.

Each of the romances has their own way of expressing that soul-mate kind of bond that I want to help make the routes feel unique!

…Hope that makes sense!

Thank you so much for the ask! :)

n sewell, internally, when there is no other option but to interrupt a tender moment between the MC and M as they watch the sun rise:

Mason’s brief moment of peace amongst the Christmas tree lot; before they all start talking.

I'm vibrating in anticipation for book three, so I actually drew Wayhaven art for once
