Snippet:

The thrill of the chase is slowly and painstakingly breaking her down and rebuilding her in his image, until all she can think about, can breathe about is him. When others gaze upon her glorious personage, they will not see the girl she was. They will see him. The echo of his voice in her smile. The shape of his hand in her silence. Because are humans not made in God’s image? And what is Adin, if not her god?

Yoho, I'm back!

Let it be known that I absolutely hated writing this chapter in Adin's POV. Probably the hardest one I've written so far, since I can't turn off my need to do character study, so that meant with actual in depth research about Adin's characterization in TCF.

And let me just say, I want to punt this man into the sun so bad.

But yeah, um, enjoy?

[lizmidfordsblog]

The unironically funniest thing about TCF is Cale giving his people food, home, shelter and everything under the sun, only to turn around be utterly flabbergasted, bamboozled, confounded about why they tf adore him so much.

Imagine being that bad at being trash. This dude had a literal crisis over how rudely he'd been treating his friend's elder all while the big bad evil guy of the entire effing novel was chucking literal dead mana at his head. And then monologued about how good of a person Choi Han was for not getting mad at him.

And then grinning to himself, nodding approvingly, deluding himself that he is, indeed, successful at being trash.

Welcome to Chapter 2 of from unspun threads, infinity!

Snippet:

Cale, visibly panicking, reaches for the one thing that has never let him down. Bullshit.

That's it. That's the chapter. Enjoy <3

Petition for this fandom to collectively ignore the existence of...Gragon.

I could take Alver and Elhaven, I could take Sir Cale instead of Cale-nim (which makes sense I guess) but damn, the last time I had such a repulsed reaction was when a cockroach flew into my takeout food. This is what I get for logging back into Tumblr after a while.

Like how tf do you even get this abomination from Goldie Gramps??

Summary:

“Are you going to keep me waiting?” She tilts her head at his cold words, always challenging. Never subservient. It’s good, that’s how she should be. Not like how she was with that man. Jules Wilde is meant to be brilliant like the sun, as resplendent as the stars. Nothing more, nothing less. Her smile is sharp. “Do you want me to?” No. Despite himself, Cale's grip around Jules' waist tightens. Please.

Fate drags Jules back to the Empire to reckon with everything she left behind—Adin’s manipulation, the Church’s sins, and the comrades who once called her their own. All things she isn't particularly inclined to dredge up.

Only to find that the hardest thing to face might be the man who started it all.

Caring for Kim Rok Soo was never part of the plan.

Anyone knew which chapter Cale fainted/threw up blood?

I want to reread those part. The emotion they envoke is something else

[lizmidfordsblog]

Currently rereading the novel for my fic and my god, Cale really do be the little shit type. Man's out here spouting bullshit left and right. He thinks he's scamming other people but he's running the biggest scam on himself??

Like what do you mean you're scamming the Jungle by putting out their fire in exchange for land? That's called employment?? What sort of job did you do before?

What do you mean you're gonna use On and Hong, and force Choi Han to pay for his meals? You're gonna scam Eruhaben, or put Raon to work? Saved Hannah and Jack, using them to topple the Empire? They already wanted to do that, dumbass. You give these people food, a house, affection and mental stability, and you think you're scamming them?

Man's biggest scam is deluding himself.

The funniest thing is reading about how at one point, Adin considers the two of them to be alike. Meanwhile, Cale's out here kicking ass and taking names with the power of friendship.

Hiii my exams just ended (no they didn't) and i just read the last three chapters AND OH MY GOD ITS SO GOOD???? THE DEVELOPMENT BETWREN THEM?? THE BIRTHDAY?? AND TGE LAST CHAPTER WAS JSUT SO SKAKSJSJSJ

so sorry for my lack of eloquence but it really was just THAT good yk? also jules and cale tag team bullying adin? already quaking in my boots with excitement. this has been my dream dynamic ever since i started this fic. im gonna reread Singularity as soon as im free from the shackles of education trust (i may have only skimmed through a few of the chapters forgive me queen)

and most importantly YES SOOWON FAN!! it's so hard find any fans of this manga let alone ones who like Soowon. also his dynamic with hak and yona, especially hak, has me so so weak. like yes save me tragic childhood best friends...

i could probably go on and on but i fear I've already yapped your ear off enough for today. 😞

so so excited for the next fic!! and have a great day!!

GIRL, PLEASE YAP OKAY???

First off, my condolences for having to deal with A levels. Hated it during my turn, all the luck to you. Idk where you are, but stay safe, hydrated and get some sleep! Accounting ain't shit on you!

ALSO hehehe, I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO READ IT!!! I knew you'd love the dynamic at the end of you, singularity. Best be prepared for more sarcastic gremlin behavior from both! Please take your time prioritizing your studies (and mental health too), this fic will be waiting for you when you return :)

Now onto the most important thing, SOOWON!!! I could not adore you more, but now you've broken the scale. I have never met a solid Soowon stan in all my years in the Akayona fandom! Like yes, I wasn't on Tumblr but still!! I am so happy, my goodness! I could yap about him all day long, his arc as an anti-hero from the start of the manga (despite how the fandom characterizes him as a villain) and his dynamic with Yona and Hak!!

Oof, this rant has gone too long. I'm so afraid to reread the manga because I know I'm gonna get blue-balled on the next chapters for months. So I'm putting it off until it finishes. Who knows, I might even write a Soowon fic??

Either way, take good care of yourself! I hope you have a great day, your exams go swimmingly and you kick accounting's ass!

[lizmidfordsblog]

hello!!! i just read the last chapter and came here after and i cannotttttt stress enough on how your fic is so delectable like it soooooo. AND the henituse families grief aughhh sobbing, i love your interpretation of different types of griefs. i cannot believe it's finished but I can't wait for them to loot adin, maybe possible jealous scene *wink* *wink*. and finding out what jules went through in the empire. take as many breaks as you can, hope your doing well!!!!

sending 💝

AHHHH, thank you so much!!!

I'm so glad you enjoyed the fic AHSJFLSGL! I'm currently working hard on writing out the next fic! The hard part is going back to the novel and reminding myself of the plot before actually writing it out! But you can look forward to some shenanigans :)) hehe, i am cooking some mild-spicy scenes (if you know what i mean).

I hope both sides of your pillow are cold and you're living your best life! Thank you for all the support!!!

[lizmidfordsblog]

"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."

Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.

Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.

REBLOG IF YOU'RE A HUMAN AND YOU USE EM DASH

Raon Miru!!!!!!!!!

[lizmidfordsblog]

Welcome to the final chapter of you, singularity!

It's been a long journey for both Jules and Cale! I've been going back to the earlier chapters for some minor editing and cleaning, and even I am blown back by how far their relationship has come.

Thank you all so much for being so supportive throughout the publication of this fic. I have read through all of your comments, both here and on ao3, and it always brings me to tears. As most of you know, this is my first fic, so I tend to get a little emotional haha.

If you enjoyed this fic, please look forward to the next fic in the series, "from unspun threads, eternity" where Jules and Cale get to tag team bullying Adin :)

Some personal headcanons (Part 1?):

Whenever Cale gets a cold, he immediately starts bleeding like a faucet since the Vitality of the Heart is working to get rid of disease. Meanwhile, everyone thinks that this dude is so weak he sneezes and starts bleeding.

Lord Sherrit is literally a mythical/fairytale bedtime story for dragons in their world. A cool af dragon lord the likes of which has never been seen for 10,000 years? Baby Eruhaben definitely went around pretending to be the next Dragon Lord/daydreaming of meeting Lord Sherrit.

Choi Jung Soo is 100% the reason why Kim Rok Soo began working out and knows how to use different weapons. The two rookies would be seen in early mornings with Choi Jung Soo snapping at Kim Rok Soo like a drill sergeant.

On and Hong remain in their cat forms the majority of the time because they're light enough to be carried by their family members especially Cale. They like being close to their adults, after being rejected and neglected for so long.

Choi Jung Gun helped write some of the storybooks Lord Sherrit put in the Castle of Light for her children. Some of them were stories from the fantasy world, but majority of them were fairytales like Little Red Riding Hood and The Tale of Shim Chŏng.

After the Alberu PJs fiasco, his family keeps giving him fancy pajamas with increasingly absurd enchantments on them in case he has to head to battle again. Think baby pink pajamas with little cats on them charmed to protect against a literal Dragon's Rage.

After his mother's passing, Beacrox learns how to cook as a healthy coping mechanism for his anger and resentment. He is hesitant to tell Ron when he develops a genuine love for cooking, but Ron is supportive because he wants his son to not be tied down by revenge like he is.

As thanks for Choi Han's sacrifice during the Sealed God Test ("I can't even feed you properly here."), Cale quietly makes green onion pancakes for Choi Han. The swordsman tears up on his first bite because of the familiar taste but refuses to cry.

The first time Raon sleeps in Cale's bed is after a nightmare. It's before he gets his name and he is still guarded around humans. Cale notices him whimper, carries him in his arms and soothes the baby dragon each time. They never address it in the morning. After one point, Raon never leaves.

Choi Han has a diary he writes in so that he can never forget his beloved family members again, no matter how much time passes. He puts in every doodle or drawing the children make for him.

After meeting Raon, Eruhaben secretly begins preparing his lair for the baby dragon after his death as a gift. However, all his preparations get destroyed by the White Star.

The first thing Raon learned how to write was Cale's name, back when he was learning from Rosalyn.

The reason Cale's hair is so long is because he is too lazy (read: busy) to cut it. He has so many split ends that it gives Eruhaben a heart attack. Cale has a bigger heart attack when he finds out Ron is going to be the one give him a hair cut.

Alberu always, always carries a white handkerchief with cookies wrapped inside with him wherever he goes. His study and his bedroom are always stocked too: both for the children and for his dongsaeng who never eats enough.

Hong has a habit of rolling around in bed seeking warmth. At one point, he rolls on top of Cale's face, choking the man awake with a mouthful of fur.

Lee Soo Hyuk and Choi Jung Soo would talk about farming so often that at one point, Kim Rok Soo secretly went out and gathered a lot of farming/gardening books. He would record them all secretly.

Cale takes special care of recording each and every moment with his family. Raon's giggling when he wipes off the steak sauce on his face, On's quiet purring cuddled in his arms, the sunlight on Eruhaben's hair as he sits and reads etc.

The God of Death definitely giggled at being the first person to read Choi Jung Gun pen name Nelan Barrow's debut novel, The Birth of A Hero. He rated it five stars ofc, Choi Jung Gun held a broom to his head.

Ahh, you're such a ray of sunshine, my goodness! My roommate just asked me why I'm giggling haha. This fandom has introduced me to the best people!

Thank you so much for bringing your positivity and kindness to this fandom. That is so sweet of you, I'm melting. Also, you're new to Tumblr?? I could not tell at all, you're so energetic and funny! I hope you a good experience!

I do have an ao3 if you're interested! I'm very new to writing to fanfiction, so I've been trying my best to do TCF justice. I hope you enjoy :)

You talk a lot about your TCF thoughts and you know what? Those are pretty cool thoughts. Thanks for sharing.

I hope both sides of your pillow are cold, your water is crisp, and the last bite of every meal you eat is the perfect bite.

Have a great day <3

These words coming from you are such a huge honor!! You're literally such an inspiration! I'm kicking my feet in bed right now T_T

Thank you for being so kind, I am very happy that you enjoy me giving Cale the rotisserie chicken treatment (in @readerattheend's immortal words).
