[thedreadpirate-cupcake]

Oh my gosh. I just finished playing Book 3 of The Wayhaven Chronicles and my fem detective romanced A(va) du Mortain and this song encapsulates my detective's feelings for her at the end of it "Ever since that day, everything has changed. The way i write your name: the cursive letter 'A'..." and pretty much the whole song. It's actually so perfect, i am shook and feeling all the feelings rn MY HEART 😭❤️

Tell me about your Detective(s)!!!

Their romances, bff, whether they are shy or bold?

(also. Gimme gimme some references. 🕵🏼)

I fear that you are about to start discovering that I am the most indecisive person on the planet and the fact that I ever made it past the very first decision in book 1 is a miracle itself

But thank you for asking!! because I also love to talk 😈

I currently have 3 detectives (kind of, two of them are *this* close to being sent back to my lil sandbox)

Rose (Rosie) Palmer:

Rose is my favorite and actually both my Nate/Mason detective (She was my first detective and I did Nate's route first, but when I started Mason's next I was like.............I don't want to make anyone new, I love her). In Nate's route, Mason is the bff and in Mason's, it's Nate lol I just love them too much. Despite being an only child, she's what I call the Big Sister Friend, because she'll "bully" you mercilessly then turn around and defend you within an inch of her life from anyone else who even thinks about hurting you. (as a big sister, I feel qualified to bestow this title upon her) Her top two professional skills are Science and Deduction. She's bold until someone (Mason) calls her bluff.

She's *mostly* the same in both routes, but somehow in Mason's, I never got a skill above 70 in book 2, so I assume that's why she kept getting the shit kicked out of her in book 3. She's definitely a people pleaser, "no I'm fine!" (screaming internally) type gal. So her relationship w/ Rebecca is like, right in the middle because she's like "yeah sure whatever" while clenching her teeth, just to avoid an argument. There's a lot of anger simmering just below the surface, but she doesn't want to take it out on anyone. And she's a lot like Adam in that she's going to (and wants to) be the decision maker, so when it all goes to hell, it's on her. She's going to worry about everyone else before herself and soon she is going to come apart at the seams. Overall, she has a strong sense of duty, cares a lot, and is funnier than me. Her true bestie is actually the legend, Vieno. I don't have any good visual references of her yet because frankly this is the first time I've ever let my detectives exist outside of my own head, but please accept this offering of a song from my wayhaven playlist (update: oops just kidding now they're real and viewable) Rose: "You First" by Paramore, "King" by Florence + The Machine Nate x Rose: "Midnight Rain" by Taylor Swift, "Can't Take My Eyes off You" by Frankie Valli Mason x Rosie: "Bleed Magic" by idkhow, "Work Song" by Hozier (bonus: "Cruel Summer" by Taylor Swift)

ok moving on

My Adam detective got an actual non-generic name 3 seconds ago, because like I said, indecisive🫠

Eleanor Drake

Eleanor is SO lonely and bitter, I want to hug her. She's a "rebellious youth" detective because she spent her teen years trying to do increasingly outlandish things, just trying to get her mom to notice her and maybe even have to come home. And now she's in love with Adam and playing the worst game of "He loves me, he loves me not" of all time. She's pretty by the book these days, her highest stats are combat and people, and she didn't encourage Tina or Verda to search for the truth, so she's LONELY lonely by book 3. Her bff is Felix!! She needs someone to lean on and brighten up this miserable existence I have crafted for her. Eleanor: "Motion Sickness" by Phoebe Bridgers, "Matilda" by Harry Styles Adam x Eleanor: "Dancing With Our Hands Tied" by Taylor Swift, "Heaven, Iowa" by Fall Out Boy

Barbara (Barbie) Cooper

This is my newest Felix detective (I had another but we were not vibing). She is sunshine personified and her name is Barbie because I created her the same day of the Barbie trailer drop. Her top skills are People and Deduction, she's so bright and enthusiastic that Adam constantly feels like wearing his sunglasses around her, yet they're also besties. She's very good at playing mediator when clashing opinions arise. She's the type to do things properly right up until someone she loves is in trouble, and then she'll break all the rules without thought. She has a good relationship with Rebecca, but I kinda want to start destroying it with every secret Rebecca reveals..... She's also a WIP that may need to be reworked idk Barbie: "Choreomania" by Florence + the Machine, "Last Hope" by Paramore Felix x Barbie: "Shinunoga E-Wa" by Fujii Kaze, "She's so High" by Tal Bachman

Thank you again for asking!! I feel strangely sweaty about finally sharing my detectives out loud lmao

[auroraswife]

shameless plug but i did want to share the playlist i've had since book one for the relationship between agent m and my detective <3 it's been an angst ride but the fact that i finally am able to start adding some love songs to it after this book is so personal to me <3

[queenbirbs]

me opening up yet another google doc for yet another WIP:

[griffin-wood]

loml || lya x bobby. (twc)

a/n: totally inspired by loml by tswift, iykyk. and been weirdly rusty, but i hope one does enjoy the sadness. <3 (playlist)

"We are still young. We got the world at our fingertips angel." Bobby's voice filled the quietness, as they lay side by side underneath the sheets of the room. He intertwined their fingers together as she turned her gaze his way.

"Well, 3 am is still early then?" A chuckle escapes her lips at his admission, it's motivating and truly him. They returned to his place for the night after a busy week filled with exams and assignments. It feels like forever since they had this moment. His journalism course took a larger toll, while her literature course had another different direction entirely. Sometimes it's easier to communicate through the existence of technology but, one would rather have the skin-to-skin affection to make up for the lost time, and that's how they ended up in each other's arms.

"It's an early time for mysterious beings to occured, angel. The boogeyman, perhaps?" He grins at the mention before Lya decides to elbow him gently. She never liked the horror stuff and the mysterious topics he's always fond of, but she's fond of him as a person. And that's enough for her to endure it, and him with love in her eyes.

"I think the philosophers would disagree, bobby." Her hand played with his hair slowly, her mouth formed into a smile. And that's how it is, whenever Bobby's around.

And that small moment was happiness to her, but she never thought it was momentary. Every kiss, every dream shared in the dark, every secret, every past scar that's been traced with kisses was suddenly gone so quickly, that she couldn't grasp the loss of it. Every single memory played when they come back together again, every argument that ends with a kiss, every fight that follows a rekindling.

"You're the love of my life." He whispers in the dark, vulnerable and open as she gazes into his eyes. His hand played with the strand of her hair, longer at the time than it is today. He pulls her close with a small smile. And she whispers back his response, thinking, 'All is well.'

"I'm yours" her whispers is quiet, but the words are absorbed within the moment letting it marinate, as this is supposed to be the moment where one does understand that this is how love is supposed to feel. Everything about this feeling was a legendary feeling. It's something you've seen in the Louvre, the paintings of heaven.

Yet.

-

"This is not fair! You can't just keep blowing me off, Bobby!" Her voice raises suddenly, her papers are scattered. Everything goes insane, adding with the finals week pressure. Maybe its her co-dependency that makes it worst or the fact, he didnt care as much anymore.

That was the argument that start it all, and time shows her the reality of when the impressionist paintings she painted in her mind turns into fake.

Everything from heaven turns into hell, they drift away and slowly lose the time they once had. Their heaven breaks apart into something worse, maybe hell is even kinder. Distance, timing, breakdown and fighting filled their once holy space.

And in the end, it's all dying into ashes. She stares at her quiet apartment, the old t-shirt he wore before is over her body, and the feeling of sadness and grief that came from all the love fills her lungs. At night, it gets difficult to breathe.

She never felt this, the existing black hole that replaces all the light and love that once existed. Never before, and she wouldn't want to feel it ever again in the future.

-

And years later, their paths crossed again. She never understands once why it's difficult to let go of the past, and yet she's experiencing it herself.

His blonde hair looks less messy than it once was, his glasses tucked perfectly where she remembered. The sling bag over his body, the ID attached. It's her Bobby. Was.

At that moment, she felt a surge of emotions. Every what-if that could become if they didn't break apart, she wishes she could stop recalling. How they almost reach heaven again. And she wonders if he felt it too, how much it was for her to leave the bed because something counterfeit was dead.

"Hey Ang - I meant..Lya." Bobby immediately corrected himself, which earned her a new expression of pain.

"Bobby." She smiled at him, but it didn't reach the eyes. And he knows it all too well, those years together, they're sewn together. Peas in a pod, each other's PB and J, and it was perfect.

"You look great" he compliments her way, she chopped off her hair as soon as they graduated. The short look was a reminder, of a new beginning. In her mind, perhaps she believed that he would remember how she'd look like before.

She stood by her principles strongly, but she's just a coward who claims herself to be a lion. Because he will always be her weakness, making it easier for her, and that's enough for her to tremble back into his arms. Just like old times, yet it feels different now. Every touch doesn't resemble the love again, yet it feels too good to let go. A momentary type of euphoria that she should have kept buried.

She sat up against the bed, the room was his, and there he was. Sleeping soundly within her arms again, they both know they'll never be the same people they once were again.

"I'll never leave." She remembers the promise years ago with a smile.

-

"Never mind." She murmurs as she takes a quiet step away, telling herself that this is wrong. She shouldn't be doing this, slipping back into her clothes..before she steps out of his place. The way he smells brings a known familiarity, but in the back of her mind, she had to go.

The snow glistens as she steps out of the door, and the familiar black hole that exists once upon a time begins to resurface, the memories, talking rings, and cradles in her dreams. A lifelong dream that they had years back burned into ashes.

The field of dreams that was once created, the picture-perfect imagination she had for them both shatters when she takes the first train to leave. And when the city is out of the picture, a relief sigh fills her lungs, muttering the truth.

She'll always see him as her first love, and at some point, until she is six feet under, he'll be the same person who made his first move during a lecture. Robert Marks, but, this time; she knows it all too well.

"You're the loss of my life."
