Insane Playlist (aka. just EVERY song that is on any of my 14 writing playlists with no sorting as to which book/character/dynamic it's for)
The whole thing is at least 7 books long in my head but I'll only talk about the first one for now. The working title is "Thornes" and here's a playlist.
Premise
Told across three timelines (13 years ago, 1 year ago and X days ago) the book follows Alli, Mirabelle and Nora - the women of the family Thorne. Since the popular revolution a few decades ago the Thornes, or as some still call them The House of Roses, have become the last great family and they are willing to do anything to hold onto that power. When Nora's father and brother decide it is her turn to get married to further the family line and ambitions, she is forced to confront the fact that her happiness will always be secondary to her purpose as a member of the family.
In the days before Nora's wedding Alli's carefully held grip on herself and her emotions begins to slip. 13 years before Nora's wedding, Mirabelle was still alive.
Characters
Alcea "Alli" Thorne - P.o.V. of the "X Days ago" Timeline. The "first flower". Alli was raised to be Lucien's wife and right hand. She is to have his children and kill on his command. While she hasn't had any children, her efficiency as a bodyguard and assasin has made her feared. Her use of magic manifests as "the flicker", an ability to phase out of reality for seconds at a time. In the past she is an excitable but measured girl, in the present any feelings she might experience are hidden behind a serene smile. She is Lucien Thorne's attack dog. She is the scariest person you will ever meet. She loves Dane with all her heart.
Eleanora "Nora" Thorne - P.o.V. of the "1 year ago" timeline. The only living daughter of the family Thorne. Wants to be a soldier but then is told she has to marry and have children since it doesn't seem like Alli will have any at this point. An angry teenage lesbian. Her magic manifests as a shield.
Mirabelle Thorne - P.o.V. of the "13 years ago" timeline. Nora's older sister and Alli's dearest friend. Also loved Dane and was betrothed to him until she died in his arms 8 years ago. Was fascinated with magic and experimenting with it constantly, helping Alli, Nora and Lucien find and develop their skills. When they were both teens she was put in charge of teaching Alli how to be a member of the family and the two became fast friends. Her death might have been the moment everything went wrong, depending on who and when you ask.
Dane Bess - The son of a servant woman in the household, who was adopted as a ward when she died. Mirabelle's childhood friend and love. In the present he is head of the family guard, outranked only by Alli in her function as First Flower. He is also her only and closest friend.
Lucien Thorne - The Thorne heir. Darius' only and oldest son. Nora and Mirabelle's older brother. Alli's husband. A geniuenly terrible person.
Darius Thorne - Daddy Thorne. The Lord Thorne if this was still a feudal system (which it isn't but boy does he act like it). The one who threw the families' power behind the people's revolution and so made sure they stayed on top when every other great house was destroyed. His children are trophies and tools to him.

Ilya is so lucky that Shane proposed. Ilya would have been a nervous fucking wreck for the entire day beforehand. Wake up in the morning. Look in the mirror. Today's the day. Sob. Breathe. Okay I'm good! Turn around and Shane's hair is all in his face, still asleep on Ilya's pillow. I am NOT good. Cold shower. Breakfast that Ilya does not eat. Morning jog wherein Ilya runs like someone is chasing him. Lunch that Ilya does not eat. Drive out to the cottage. Make Shane pull over because Ilya needs to dry heave on the side of the road. "Baby we don't have to drive out today if you're not feeling well." "NO WE HAVE TO." Get to the cottage. Immediately send Shane on some kind of extended fool's errand. Shane wants to stay because Ilya is SHAKING and he is so worried. "No my love I'm fine it's just the breeze off the lake haha." It's thirty fuckig degrees Celsius. Shane finally gtfo's. Yuna, David, Rose FUCKING Landry all descend to help Ilya set up. Well. Ilya is supposed to be helping but he is standing on the deck fully dissociating. Yuna brings him tea. "Are you going to throw up the tea?" "Yes probably." Yuna takes away the tea. 800 electronic tea lights on the deck. In a parallel Ilya has no way of understanding, he both puts on and takes off a suit. Yuna fixes his curls into the hockey boy quasi-mullet that magnetizes Shane's fingers to Ilya's hair and says, "Oh, you're so handsome!" Ilya cries big fat tears. David tells a story about how his proposal to Yuna almost didn't happen because David went to the hospital for heart palpitations that morning. Thank You David That Does Not Help Even Remotely. Ilya slav squats on the lawn for twenty minutes. Shane's car pulls up in the driveway and everyone hides while Ilya vibrates in the entryway. Shane has no less than thirty grocery bags hanging from his arms, still complaining about why the grocery service cancelled their delivery last minute. Ilya leads Shane and all thirty of his grocery bags onto the deck. Shane is doing his favorite thing (bitching) and his second favorite thing (Follow Ilya) so he doesn't notice his own mother tiptoing behind him collecting the grocery bags he drops like breadcrumbs. There is an Oscar-winning actress hiding under his sofa and Shane does not notice because Ilya takes him on the deck and drops to his knees and Shane is like, "Haha, right now?" and then he sees that Ilya has a look on his face like he's just been told the sun is never coming up again and he has his hands on Shane's knees and he is saying, "Shane. Please?" and Shane puts his hands on his head and says "Oh my God baby what's happening to you" as Ilya melts and melts and then from the depths of the cottage someone who sounds a lot like Shane's very own father is whispering "The ring the ring" and when he looks back down Ilya is fumbling a ring box out of his pocket. The first picture of their proposal is Shane glaring into the middle distance with a hand cradling Ilya's curls like a baby while Ilya ugly sobs into his knee.
If I ask nicely will people reblog this and tell me what their most common breakfast is? Not your favorite necessarily, just what you have for breakfast most frequently? ππ½
