Are you kidding??? SO into it!
@runicrascal
Was it the “who hurt you” trope that got you?
@mythicwitch
Kind of…But also, have you SEEN the makeup, the artistry? I can’t believe it’s all handcrafted for the characters. I mean the CGI is…something to be desired, but the design is there, you know? And the painted scenery, and when they do the sweeping shots with the miniature sets? It’s beautiful
@runicrascal
Ah, no surprise you appreciate that aspect of things! How is the Téiglin fanart going?
@mythicwitch
It’s going well! I’m thinking of using it for my coursework project actually. If my teacher’s on board with the plan, I’m thinking I’ll do some sculpture work for one of my pieces. Definitely better than the sad still-life rose I was originally working on!
@runicrascal
Nice! Can’t wait to see it!
@mythicwitch
I was gonna do some more tonight (maybe more actual fanart and less homework this time) but

@runicrascal
But?
@mythicwitch
Buuut the usual. My parents were acting suuuuper weird when I got home (Dad was here again? They had DINNER TOGETHER? Can’t imagine how that went without me as a buffer lol. I honestly cannot WAIT for this divorce to be over with) so that kinda ruined the mood
Art’s a really good escape until they suck all the inspiration out of the air and the whole house feels like I’m living in the middle of a storm cloud, you know?
@runicrascal
Damn. I’m sorry, Cerys
@mythicwitch
Thanks
@runicrascal
Here if you need a sounding board at all. Can’t promise much in the way of artistic inspiration, but…
@mythicwitch
Haha, thanks. I appreciate it x
@runicrascal
The “storm cloud” line was some nice writing, though. Maybe you should give that a go, if drawing isn’t working?
@mythicwitch
HA! Yeah, right! As if I’ve ever gotten more than a C for creative writing! That is in fact why I’m studying other people’s work for A level English lit instead of making my own
Besides I wouldn’t even know where to start
@runicrascal
I’m sure a romance lover like you could come up with a thing or two

All right @everyone—a call to arms! Newbie @mythicwitch is a few episodes into the show now and already seems to be a hardcore Silversmith shipper…Does anyone have any good fanfics to share with her?
@sirmoonypants
Noooo, Team Moonsilver all the way! You’ll get there @mythicwitch, give it time ;) Glad to hear you’re enjoying the show so far!
@silversmithhh
HELL YEAH THIS IS MY TIME TO SHINEEEEE
@fauningforhim
Haha, wondered how long it’d take you to show up!
@silversmithhh
What’re we looking for, Cerys? In-universe canon-divergence? Gender swap? Spice? Or are we thinking more domestic fluff? One-shots? Omegaverse? Omg, I have some really good omegaverse ones I can send you
@wizeguy
Cool it @silversmithhh, you don’t want to scare off the newcomers! Maybe start with a coffee shop AU?
@mythicwitch
I’m a little embarrassed to admit I don’t know what any of those things are…Sorry, @silversmithhh! VERY much a newcomer haha
@silversmithhh
Oh no worries! Okay, so domestic fluff is just people being in love and happy and super cute.
Canon is the stuff that actually happens in the books/show, so canon divergence is like…
tweaking/changing certain aspects of that, but the story is still set in the show/books.
AU is “alternate universe”—basically putting the characters into, like, Regency-era England, or a Star Wars setting, or a WWII drama!
(I have a very good rec for one where Devon is a WWII soldier and Adanna is a spy…)
@runicrascal
How about something with Notting Hill vibes?
@mythicwitch
That would be perfect!
@silversmithhh
Don’t worry, girl. I’ve got you
