🪡 Bound by me! @froidefille
🎁 Gifted to my first IRL AO3 friend @ollliecat. I’m so glad we’re in this madness together 🥹
The biggest thank you, I love you, good job to shinny mods and participants and of course to the writers whose works we could bind 🤍 taking part in this together brought me so much joy!! Talk shop and process pictures under the cut 🤓
Okay so!!!! When designing this bind I listened to The Role Model and The Long Game mostly so it is mostly Ilya coded. I envisioned the blend color scheme of Boston Raiders (black+yellow) and Ottawa Centaurs (black+red). Hence velvet black cover material (don’t do this to yourselves, it somehow collected all the dust from my apartment in like 30 minutes), maroon endpapers and straw yellow ribbon.
For endpapers I also added some quotes from the show and the boys’ numbers and initials (notice H for Hollander is next to R for Rozanov which also makes HR for Heated Rivalry 🤓)
Shoutout to @shelfawarepodcast you can hear in the background, go give those ladies a listen, I love their talks so much!!
I also made my very first dust jacket!! Took an Uber across the city to have it printed and have been thinking about buying A3 printer ever since 🙃 made in Canva of course. I really miss Photoshop in times like these but alas, subscriptions.
Front and back covers as well as this post’s header were made using photo edits by @frenchnbookish. Do yourself a favour and check out her edits, they are honestly hilarious on top of being just SO.PRETTY. I gotta admit if not for this shinny, I would still figure out a way to make this particular edit a book cover because it totally absolutely 100% should be. Connor is somehow perfect Ilya here and Hudson is miraculously Shane-like 😅
Sewn using french stitch, glued spine then added endpapers. I managed to forget how to impose but @citrusses had my back 💛
Okay, I think that’s it! I’m sure I’ll think of something to add later on but oh well. I’ve only been writing this post in my head for a month so 😅

Spark gingerly pulled a Pokemon egg out of its incubator, comfortingly petting its smooth surface, letting his fingers tracing each green spot while a smile began to cross his face. He sat down and crossed his legs, turning the egg to “look at him” and placing both hands on its sides while sitting it gently in between his legs.
“Hey little guy,” he started using his baby voice, “it’s been tough. But you made it! You’re gonna hatch soon, and when you do, I’m gonna give you a big hug!"
A crack could already be seen forming on the top, letting out the smallest traces of light. It would hatch any moment now, and Spark wanted to witness it first-hand. The birth of a Pokemon was always a magical experience, and he'd never gotten bored of watching it happen, even after years of incubating and hatching eggs.
Soon, the light began to grow brighter, and he tensed as the moment fast-approached. But, he could hear footsteps from behind, a visitor, who was about to step into a magnificent event. He turned and looked at them.
"Yo! If you want to see, hurry! It’s about to hatch!”
