I commissioned this piece from @jccatstudios before ASOCAS4. I wanted a scene from the books with the actors, that Netflix denied us! My partner is a mapmaker so I wanted the Ice Court map scene. Getting it signed by Kit, Danielle, Amita, Freddy, Calahan and Jack was incredible. The whole lead up to the Con I was so worried something was going to go wrong and I wouldn't be able to get all six autographs and my collection would be incomplete.

Working with @jccatstudios was fantastic. It was truly a collaboration and she incorporated little touches that I wanted, like the Crow's feather and the d20 dice.

Kit went on this very sweet little spiel about how he can immediately think of things that Jack would excel in, but “he’ll get all those in the next six months” and wanted to think of something that’d be challenging but fun. Eventually he said he’d like to see Jack in a Mission Impossible type movie, jumping out of planes and such.

for the love of everything you believe in, please ask calahan this question:

Your Matthias never really had the chance to properly show his characterization or his story, especially the grooming and weaponization he went through under Jarl Brum, a man Matthias saw as a father. Your Cash in Blue Graffiti also deals with a complicated relationship with his father, and your upcoming novel is called You, Your Father.

Considering all of this, how do you personally see Matthias’s relationship with Brum, and the effect Brum had on your Matthias’s story? And if the spin-off had happened, was there a scene between them you would have especially wanted the chance to act?

please.

instead of asking the same death question that has been asked at every single panel for the past four years. you don’t even have to talk to me. you don’t have to tell me you asked it. i just desperately want to know what his answer would be.

amita and sujaya: bro... are we about to kiss rn 😳😳

I’m still absolutely ecstatic I managed to snag a solo chat with Jack at ASOCAS 4 on Saturday morning! Jack was so sweet and kind 🥰

Wylan is my absolute favorite 🐦‍⬛ and means so much to me! So getting to meet the actor who brings the character to life is a dream come true!

As I was walking to the table I was so nervous I tripped on a floor panel and accidentally knocked it out of place with my foot which was really embarrassing though 😳

I got a chance to show Jack the Wylan charm bracelet I made and they thought it was really cool which made me really happy!!!! Jack especially liked the serotonin charm and said “I could use some of that!”

Jack asked if I was a book-to-show fan or show-to-book fan? I explained that I had watched Netflix Shadow and Bone first and have only read a Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom so far, but Crooked Kingdom was my favorite! Jack said it was their favorite too because it had so much Wylan in it!

We also talked an about their performance in Next to Normal. Jack asked if I watched it online and I told them I had seen the PBS proshot. Then I asked Jack what their favorite song to sing from N2N was. Jack said they auditioned with “I’m Alive” but “I Am the One” was also one of their favorites! Both are in my top 3 faves!

I also mentioned how much their comment during the Attitude at National Student Pride interview last year meant to me as an ace person. Jack said that fighting representation is very important to them and since they have a platform now they want to make the most of it.
