🔸 The Most Illustrious of Tea Parties 🔸

I got another one

I did have a couple questions, if you had answers you're at all willing to share. Hawthorn stan that I am, I'm also fascinated by the drama that is Edwin/Hawthorn lmao, I think that sort of doomed relationship is so delicious. Have you written or would you ever write anything prequel-y about them? A short story or the like? If not, is there anything you brainstormed up about them that didn't make it into the books?

Secondly, do Edwin and Robin ever find out that Ross wrote the Roman books? Because that would be such a funny scene.

Thank you again, and thank you for answering the asks about this series you've gotten here, I love reading your responses and learning more about the books/your writing process :D

hello! thank you so much!

I'm skipping a few asks ahead in the queue to answer this one, because I think my answer will apply to (and hopefully anticipate) some other asks: if it's not in the books or any other Official Published Content, then I'm mostly not going to comment on events that happened offpage or may happen offpage in the future*.

as a fanwriter myself, and as an author who's made the decision to engage with readers on a predominantly fannish platform... I prefer not to come down all Word Of God and deny readers or fans the pleasure of coming up with their own answers. whether you intend to write fanfic about it or just happily develop your own headcanons: the text is out there, so it's yours now!

so the answers to 'what was edwin and jack's relationship like' and 'do edwin and robin ever find out about alan's books' are both: whatever you want it to be. whatever the next fanwriter wants it to be.
