*beep beep beep*

Kaitlyn groans face first into her pillow as she blindly seeks out her ringing phone. After a few seconds of searching she finds it on the nightstand and turns off the alarm.

As she lies there, she can’t help but wonder why she tortures herself like this. Why she insists on waking up at this ungodly hour on the regular when she could be fast asleep. Fast asleep and having wonderful dreams.

Kaitlyn groans again. She rolls over and throws the blankets off herself, the cool morning air an unwelcome wake-up call. She gets herself up out of the bed taking a moment to stretch and yawn and then grabs the black shirt hanging on the back of the chair in her room.

After throwing on the shirt she makes her why out of her room and heads to the bathroom. Once done, Kaitlyn cautiously makes her way down the stairs with the sporadic yawn on the way. She enters the hall to come to the door to MC’s room.

She gently knocks on the door and slowly opens it. She peers in with sleepy eyes to find a sleeping MC. Quietly shutting the door behind her, kaitlyn walks up to the bed and proceeds to crawl onto it and over her sleeping beauty.

The previously sleeping MC stirs from the sudden movement on the bed. “You’re late, Liao.” She groggily says. MC slowly opens her eyes to see kaitlyn’s bright smile.

“Shush you, I had to make a pit stop.” Kaitlyn says.

“For coffee I hope?” MC asks. Kaitlyn’s hair, face, and eyes beautifully light up in the morning light now creeping itself in through the window.

“No coffee. But I can give you some sugar.” Kaitlyn flashes a mischievous smile and instantly begins showering MC’s face with kisses.

“Ahh!” MC squirms and giggles from the affection. Satisified, Kaitlyn stops and crawls under the covers next to MC.

They both settle into the comfort of the bed and the warmth of the rising sun. Kaitlyn snuggles up against MC wrapping her arms around her, letting herself fall into this blissful moment.

It is then that Kaitlyn is reminded why she wakes up so early on the regular. And she will continue to do so for nothing could convince her to do otherwise.

I was inspired by this great piece of art and headcannon to write this little thing. I hope it was okay for me to write it. I have always enjoyed your art. Thank you so much for sharing it! 😄

Headcanon: Even Tho Kaitlyn Is Not A Morning Person, She Wakes Up An Hour Earlier Than She Has To So

Headcanon: Even tho Kaitlyn is not a morning person, she wakes up an hour earlier than she has to so she can go cuddle with her girlfriend <3 (when they don’t sleep together of course)

While some many questions were answered and not, I think I can help with at least one. The key with Quinn's zodiac on it was likely left by the endless to aid them on their quest much like Raj's frying pan and the mark on the wall for Estella. Our group just did not find it in this timeline.

ES Finale

Ooof, I don’t even know where to start…

I knew that trusting Rourke was an idiotic idea, but I tried it out of curiosity… Quinn is still dying, Sean isn’t happy (from what I can tell), Michelle is dealing with those fake friends again, Zahra’s our “roomie” but as cold as an iceberg, Estela was hella rude, didn’t see much of Craig, Raj, Grace, and Aleister. Lila’s alive, and a Rourke groupie again. And we don’t even get to see Jake and Mike… The only plus was starting a new friendship with Diego. #AllHailEmperorRourke

Staying on the island was also not great. Yeah, we get to stay with everyone on the island, live with our sexy husband/wife, but everyone seems like they weren’t really happy. The last thing they did was toast to their lost family members… Also upset that after getting married we don’t get to see a new house or whatever. I was looking forward to building a home on La Huerta.

The fact that we never got to see everyone reunite with their families pisses me off so much… Like I didn’t sacrifice myself to not see everyone’s future. I wanted the heart-wrenching reunion scenes! Jake seeing his mom and sister for the first time in years, Estela going back to her uncle, Sean seeing his mom again, and Quinn getting her parents back together. But, nope. (in my opinion) This was the best out of the 3. I knew I was gonna choose this anyway, because to me it just made the most sense. The voice message MC left was really sweet though i most definitely cried, and they all got together 5 years later on the island it looks like and toasted to MC. We didn’t really get as much of reaction (especially from our LI’s) as I’d hoped… But it was still worth it.

Somethings I still don’t get though:

Who was Diego crushing on in book one?

What was the point of the pirates and Kele?

Is Jake’s name cleared in the 3rd option? Does he not see his family again?

Why did I buy the bikini in the 3rd book if it doesn’t even replace that ugly purple one?

What was the deal with the Dolphin Key in the diamond scene? What does it do?

What was the deal with the robot spider on the boat?

What was the point in showing Taari disappearing at the end of book 2? They didn’t even mention it.

What was the point of the mezzberries (or whatever they’re called)?

Were they all just on a random beach in the 3rd option? If it was La Huerta, how is it still existing without Vaanu?

Estela and Zahra, Michelle and Jeanine, Lila and Aleister… Why?

What happened to Varyyn in the 1st option? Does Diego find out he’s still alive?? Or even remember him???

Well, I guess thats it. It’s done now. Over. Gone. Finito. 

I feel like the whole finale was kind of… Lackluster? Idk, I just expected something more… A 4th option or some sort of surprise after the stats. A secret ending… Huh, I guess it’s really over…

when I was 14 I worked in a grocery store and one day I got to bag Stephen King’s groceries and of course, being the little horror fiction nerd I am I was completely starstruck

I think he thought I was gonna ask for an autograph because I was not even lowkey staring I was full on moon-faced and bouncing and he kept looking over at me hesitantly like aw jeez kid fuck off

anyways I finally managed to squeak out that I was a huge fan and asked for advice on writing, “how do I write as well as you do?” in my horrible thick German accent and broken ass English and he gave me the best writing advice I have ever received

“shit kid, stop worrying about how other people do it and just write your story”

14 years later my wife and I nearly hit him with our car because he was jaywalking

Yeah, exactly my thought too. And they are laying on those red herrings too heavily.

So. Beckett took wards from a mirror to have a place for training with his advanced magic. That’s why Atlas saw his bracelet. Because Beckett left the mirror without wards MC fell into it and got into the mirror realm. That’s why he was so distraught after MC disappearance, it was his fault. And that’s why he’s so nice now or at least tries to be.

And other friends suspicious behavior just a red herring and they’re probably planning some party to cheer MC up or something like that.

At least that what I think now, I haven’t finished chapter yet.

Exactly. I am a little nervous...

If all the sexy diamond scenes in The Junior don’t take place in different locations of the apartment (the shower for one) I’m going to be very disappointed..

So quite a while ago I discovered my account was shut down by tumblr. I was given no reason or word at all abiut it and was not aware until I attempted to log in after a break. It took nine months for support to finally send me an automated response to my inquiry of my account. After again asking why it was taken down my account was restored afte rtelling me it found nothing wrong.

Okay.

Not sure what happened but my avatar was removed by them? Haha it was a literal snowflake with the blog's name.

I must have been hacked?

That aside things look the same around here. Fun to see all the cool art out there again.
