hey! i love fire and ice, i always get excited whenever there’s a new update! i was wondering if you have a schedule for posting and if so what is it? also how many chapters are you planning for this whole fic?
Aaaaa thank you so much!
Unfortunately the answer is no on both counts LOL. I'm sorry! I'm aiming for a posting schedule of 1-2 chapters a week (depending on the work load of my beta buns). Please join me in cheering them on!
The whole fic stands at (currently) just over 110k words. We are slightly over half-way into the story, with one more arc to go. As for chapters, I'm very sorry again. I'm taking more of a jannik "let's see what's coming" with sectioning off the next Part for chapters. Once I do, I'll update the chapter count on ao3.

hi! big fan of fire and ice. as i read, i realize that i have no idea how much time has passed since the first chapter. given that the darren interlude reveals it's been two years since carlos first arrived, it's much longer than i had a concept of. do you have a rough timeline you're willing to share? up to the current chapter, of course
[rises from the grave] Hello! Thank you so much for your ask. I'm glad you're enjoying the fic!!
That is a very good question!! As of ch. 12 of ice and fire, we are somewhere along 10-11 months since Jannik's last day in King's Landing. There will be another time marker in (checks notes) two chapters time, but assume that any "lul" period small comes with a few weeks worth of time jump.
I'll lay out the timeline below as of ch. 12. Spoilers to ch. 12 ahead.
Timeline from when Carlos arrived in Winterfell (yr - years, m - months, w - weeks):
(0 ) - 1 year betrothal countdown starts when Carlos arrives at Winterfell
(11 m + ~2 w) - start of Part II - travelling to King's Landing begins. Travel takes roughly 3 weeks.
(1 yr) - on the road to King's Landing
(1 yr + 1 w) - arrive at King's Landing.
(1 yr + 5 m) - they spend approx. 4 months and in King's Landing before the end of Part II and goodbye Carlitos happens.
(1 yr + 5 m + ~2 w) - Part III begins. Jannik grieves. They take a few weeks to travel to Winterfell.
(1 yr + ~7 m) - Hanspeter comes back to Winterfell a few weeks later than Jannik. Carlos has been gone for 2 months.
(1 yr + 8-9 m) - at some point Jannik's breakdown scene happens.
(2 yr) - Jannik & co. spends a 3-4 months visiting the territories around the North. At the end of the 2 year mark, is the scene at Oldcastle with Darren, marking the end of Darren interlude. Carlos has been gone for 7 months.
(2 yr + 1 m) - They begin to march for Riverrun. (I gave them a month or so & begin marching. I'm not sure how realistic this is for that number of people.). Carlos has been gone for 8 months.
(2 yr + 2 m) - Siege of Riverrun is lifted. Carlos has been gone for 9 months.
(2 yr + 3-4 m+) - Chapter 12's down period. Jannik meets Meddy begins helping Matteo retake the Riverlands. Carlos has been gone for 10 - 11 months.
If it seems like the time skip is ramping up, there is a plot related reason for that which the readers will find out as we move along the story. I also wanted to give ample time for people to travel around Westeros similar to the earlier seasons of the show and books. Moving a big group of people will only add more time to this as well due to the logistical nightmare. Then, I wanted to give them time in the locations where the action is happening as well. So they can savour (or suffer) in the mundaneness of things.
All this to say that I'm relying on a lot of the reader's goodwill and grey areas for the timeline of the story. Jannik and Carlos had one year and almost four months of joy though. Rest assured readers for our sweet worker beelitos, Winterfell really was the best vacation Carlos ever had.

What do you think would happen in a hypothetical scenario of Lace meeting Hornet's siblings? (like, a proper meeting, not her being unconscious for the duration lol)

I'm so sorry ma'am, yes I know your car was attacked by a Sudowoodo and your policy does cover damage from Rock types, but our system has it listed as a Grass type. There's nothing I can do.
Ma'am your pokemon has a ×4 weakness to ground type. We can't insure that- graveler are too populous here and look at its defense scaling. Have you considered investing in an air balloon?
I know it's tedious ma'am, but if you teach your pokemon at least one HM that will qualify you for our Expidition Bonus, which gives you a 10% discount on your policy and provides coverage for natural disasters
I'm sorry ma'am our company is no longer providing accident or disaster insurance in your area. For more information you'll have to speak with the Absol and Xatu in our Calamities department.
Hello! This is my works cited for "i could fix him." (spoilers for the fic!) These are all the p5 shuake/akeshu fics that inspired mine + what I stole from them. If you liked my fic, I would wholeheartedly recommend all of these!
Like if you would do the attic trash by Ren_Saxon - the whole concept of them having Twitter beef and a few of the plot points (Akechi being an author, Akechi thinking Ren and Ann are dating, etc)
for the stars and songs, for you too by konbini_kun - I actually started writing this before reading this fic, but there were a ton of plot similarities and I do think it ended up being a big influence on the vibes of the story
the final step of transforming an apartment into your very own mona shrine by sailboating - Ren being a streamer and more importantly, THE MONA EMOTES
this account's tweets are protected by alsahm, benetnash - the idea of Akechi's private twitter + everyone at some point assuming Ren was dating Ann
Wallpaper Boy Anonymous - the idea of Ren snapping a pic during his rank 3 with Akechi
two steps on the water by rhodophytae - the whole ex-situationship idea!
