I just wanted to ask, what are your thoughts on Celtic mythology? Would you ever write a book using Celtic mythology

....an AU where Aru never lit the lamp, and subsequently never learned about the Otherworld and who she really is

I had to write down the idea and it somehow evolved into.... this

In this AU our lovely heroine is around 14-15, and living life as a loner, because after she refused to light the lamp that fateful day, she got labeled a liar and no one wanted to hang out with her

Her mom is also away on business trips, more so than ever because she’s getting more and more desperate to find the artifact that will help her keep both her daughter and her husband

So now she’s kind of like a jaded, cynical version of herself- she avoids attention like it’s one of those rats-with-wings (pigeons) and has loads of trust and family issues because hero(in)es with angst are close to my heart it’s only expected with her childhood and upbringing

Another thing worth mentioning: because her mother didn’t tell her anything about the Otherworld, she becomes the only Pandava unaware of who they really are (meaning all the rest have been claimed and instated as one of the heroes)

So because the Sleeper was never released, he can’t be the villain, and this leaves the role open for someone I wish we’d seen more of- Takshaka (I kinda hate him, but I feel like his arc, especially his hate of Arjuna and Indra in particular, is really interesting and something that could’ve been expanded on more in the books)

Istg y'all I have so many thoughts about this-

Brynne: Wednesay.

Aru: Not what I had in mind, but I'm flexible.

It was really early and Moorland looked beautiful

I think it's safe to say she got her energy out

I literally posted a week ago that the Aru Shah fandom was dying. My home feen only had around 54 posts in 24 hours and barely any of them were Aru Shah when I posted that.

Suddenly everyone is back and I'm getting 99+ posts in 8 hours and a shit ton is about TPQ. You guys literally took 1 look at that post and went 'LOL sike, you wish bitch' and suddenly started posting at top-speed and I genuinely cannot keep up.

The graph for the number of people in the fandom is like this:

It fluctuates and just as you feel it's gonna hit 0, we're suddenly big again. You all keep coming back no matter what.

We're small and basically at rock bottom, but we all stay in the end, refusing to budge up and let go. You give all who tell you to move on the finger.

You guys are the most obstinate, defiant, bold, ambitious, daring, adamant, aggressive, hell-bent people I know.
