Finally can show my work for @carry-on-big-bang that I did for @orange-peony ‘s story If Only!! Have a read if you can! (It’s really good!)

Had such a fun time with this piece and went a little bit out of my comfort zone for it.

The version with the title below the cut!

SnowBaz I E I 19K, complete I Fairy tale AU, arranged marriage (of sorts), vampire Baz, cursed Simon, mutual pining, fluff, Simon just wants to kiss his husband in peace but the bloody court etiquette gets in the way.

Summary: “The prince can have his pick,” the Mage replies calmly. “Anyone he wants. We will organise a ball, as is traditional in my kingdom. All the noble ladies of age will attend, and Prince Basilton will be able to choose his favourite.” “Anyone?” Father asks. He already has someone in mind. I look at Snow, desperate and foolish as I am, and I can see a similar panic mirrored in his eyes. Or maybe I’m imagining things. Maybe I just want to believe that he cares about me even a fraction of the way I care for him. “He can choose anyone,” the Mage concludes.

A big big thank you to @alexalexinii, my artist for the @carry-on-big-bang, for picking my story and for the wonderful illustration they created for it and for the fantastic banner in this post! Thank you so much!

A shiny thank you goes to the brilliant @fiend-for-culture for being such an amazing beta.

Additional thanks to the mod for running the fest for another year, and to @pato-roldnart for putting up with me (you're a saint).

Deltarune tomorrow.

"It's not my birthday." "But it could be." Simon Snow doesn't know when his birthday is, so they never celebrate it. Baz makes up for lost time. A series of vignettes in which Baz does nice things for Simon post-canon, all under the guise of them being "for his birthday."
