what made you pick the canon coaches (Hadley, Sandy (Whitney coach), Talia, and Alzena) to appear in your fic? Was there any reason or did you just like them?
IM SO EXCITED TO ANSWER THIS.
So heโs the Harry Styles coach but he also gives like similar vibes to Jack Rose and kinda has this very โIโm better than you, I was the leader of the boy bandโ vibe that I loved. I didnโt talk about this in Thorns yet but I may as well, the real reason Jack Rose hates him is because he believes Hadley was spreading rumors around the industry that he sleeps with producers. Did Hadley say it? Maybe.
Also because they seemed like rivals and one of them stole this move from the other.
Iโm jk, originally I had Sandy as Whitney but I just decided to change it and make it the coachโs name. I did have her aged up because idk felt like her map was way before others but it gives her a more funny and mature vibe. Hopefully, we see more Sandy and how she ended up on Eternyx.
She had a last nameโฆ no but for real, I may get some heat but Iโm not a Swifty and thought Iโd seek some revenge for all those private jet flights. Talia kinda screamed fake with the shifting backgrounds and again, I donโt really like Taylor Swift and I wanted pop stars pitted against each other. Taylor Swift vs Bruno Mars. Also, she has beef with the Vampire Lestat @lizards-wizards-and-magpies
If you didnโt know Iโm such a huge Linkin Park fan. Kinda shot myself in the foot with the music aesthetic but I wanted to weave them in. Alzena is such a cool coach and looks Eternian so I wanted some solid proof to back Rolandโs hate of Eternians. Sheโs so pretty and the map screams like liberation from someone especially, โbe more like me and be less like you.โ Hinting at her rejecting Dancite standards and doing what she decides. Keep your eyes peeled for Alzena ;D
Thank you so much for this ask! My inbox is always open but I try my best to get to all of them๐
