Hi @astromechs!

I am your RCNSS! I am so sorry this is delayed - life was absolutely non-stop for me for the last month.

In reading your prompts, my mind latched onto the Regency AU. It's...definitely not the usual Regency AU, but I hope you like it!

Lusus Naturae

Whim of Nature

A lovely way to describe a not so lovely reality that Lady Jyn Erso finds herself living. In Regency England, a woman her age should be more worried about who to marry and setting up her household. But no, she gets to fight demons. And fight a growing attraction to the person who pulled her into this life - Lord Cassian Andor.

Inspired by Dark Days Club, by Alison Goodman.

PREVIEW

Cassian will consider, later, that maybe they should have waited. That droid or not, the poor taxi driving them back to their bungalow (a much longer ride than last night) did not deserve that sort of behavior from their fares. But, he also considers that he and Jyn are not the first and most definitely will not be the last couple to comport themselves in such a shameful way that evening (or any given evening on this planet, really).

But, these were to be considerations for later, because all Cassian can think about are the sounds Jyn is making, muffled against her bitten lip in an attempt to be discrete. He wants to tell her it’s useless— there is no question as to what they are doing here in the back seat of this taxi to any passerby— but he is too mesmerized by her trying. Trying to hide what he is doing to her. The effort of her restraint, no matter how ineffective, is intoxicating to him. He is equally mesmerized by her expression as she comes. A wrinkled brow and open mouth and flushed sternum. How she feels, shivering and molten over his fingers and palm. He hadn’t been able to see her before, on the beach. He has to close his eyes, unable to take in such a sight any longer, and laves his tongue over the pulsing line of her jugular.

“Fuck… Cassian,” Jyn pants into his ear and both his ego and his cock swell with pleasure at how thoroughly wrecked she sounds. Her palm is hot and firm over his belly, dipping lower, fingers hooking under the waistband of his pants.

“Later,” he warns, nudging her hand away. “Almost home.”

She growls softly in frustration, nips at his chin and seals her mouth at the dip of his shoulder. The Spark flares red-hot and potent under the hard ridge of her teeth.

“We have to— have to check the datachip… before—“ He hisses in a breath, knocks the back of his skull hard onto the plastisteel backing behind his head in an effort to collect himself. Jyn’s hand, no matter his protestations, has found its way back to his crotch. He doesn’t think he’s ever been this hard in his life. It pains him to brush her away, but he has to, damn it all. “Jyn… before anything else.”

She detaches herself from his neck, frowns at him as she palms his cock through his trousers. It takes everything within him to not buck up into her, as shameless and wanton as a virgin boy. “First thing after we get inside, yeah?”

sending good vibes on this wondrous tuesday ✨

Question for you: is there something specific about hurt/comfort fics that really do it for you?

Hi! Sorry for not answering back yet, but...*gestures to the insanity we live in now* - it's been a hell of a week.

As for your question...I'm not quite sure. I've been a fan of the genre since before I knew what it was (especially physical h/c). I think it's something about the intimacy of being cared for by someone else, plus the intensity of being the one *doing* the caring. Even if it's after the initial event, the h/c that's possible afterwards is just...ugh. So good. I can give you a few of my favorite examples if you need it, but that would make this answer insanely long.

19. What’s one pairing you want to explore next year?

My early 2016 RebelCaptain feels have returned with a vengeance after Andor loooool. I can't wait to write more about them in 2023 gaaaah. All the soulmatism all the "they met right when they needed each other but there was NEVER enough time", all the poking fun at each other, all the angst(tm) gaaah.

30. Biggest surprise while writing this year?

Brilliant cover and chapter banner art by @dasakuryo​!

NOW COMPLETED!

Cassian licked his lips and leaned closer, nuzzling their noses together. “... nothing could keep me from you.”  “Nothing,” she echoed. “Not even death.”  This time she chewed on the corner of her lower lip, her gaze shifting to his mouth... her smile spreading and almost hurting her cheeks.
