Brushing the dirt from his pants and heaving one last, big sigh, Wille stood up. No use stalling. He’d go to the campsite manager now. Better to get it done and then finally relax and be able to enjoy his trip.
A cracking noise sounded behind him. Wille jerked around — and stopped in his tracks, like he was playing musical statues all on his own. Wille wasn’t religious, had never been. But the man that had stepped into the clearing might just change his opinion on gods and deities.
Or, the strangers to lovers camping redemption no one asked for.
You put two biologists in a room fandom together and this is what you get.
Despite what some of you might be thinking, neither Jay @enjoythesilentworld nor I have lost the ability to spell. However, we do have a bad case of brainrot. So, when Jay (on a camping trip at the time) told me that someone had put their gear in their camping spot, we very quickly started to wilmonify the situation, as one does. A little bit of fun almost immediately turned into a fully-fledged outline to what would become Growing towards the light.
We know Omar just released Sabotage and I’m sure many of you are feeling very Not Chill right now. If you feel like you need something to calm yourself and find some tranquility and peace… what about a trip to the woods? We’ve heard Wille has been recommended camping to calm down 🫶
Biggest, warmest and most grateful thank you to the incredibly lovely and generous Roo @sobadbad who brought our very vague wishes for a header to life. We’ve been staring at it for two weeks now and still can’t believe it’s real (and maybe we've sent it to each other every other morning, because it's the best thing to wake up to). We love it as much as Simon loves Wille and Wille loves Simon. 💜💜
Now that we’ve got your aTention: we present you our Tentative offering for camping redemption: Growing towards the light.
(Little note from Lia to an unknwoing Jay: Writing (and plotting) gttl has been the most organic and natural thing in the world. I never thought I’d collaborate with someone else like this, but this story and the entire creative process has brought me a tremendous amount of joy in the past three months. ily Jay <333)

Unedited little snippet from another upcoming (untitled) one-shot
“Good morning, baby,” Wille said, smirking. “Sleep well?”
Simon hmed in response, giving him a quick kiss on his forehead. “Perfectly fine, thank you. Only a shame the bed was empty this morning.”
As he was about to move to the kitchen to pour himself a mug of coffee, Wille grabbed onto him by his sweatshirt.
“This is nice.” He picked at a piece of fabric, bringing Simon closer to him to pretend to inspect it. “Where did you get it?”
Simon wriggled in his grip, which only caused Wille to hold him tighter.
“Don’t you know it’s wrong to take things without asking?” Wille nuzzled the sweatshirt, unable to hide the laughter in his voice.
“Oh shut up, I know how much you love seeing me in your clothes.” Simon brushed a strand of hair out of Wille’s face as Wille looked back up at him, a hungry look in his eyes.
“I love it most when you’re not wearing anything at all.”
“Hm, that can be arranged if you keep talking like that.”
“Hm?”
“Definitely.”
Simon cupped Wille’s face and leaned down to press their lips together, smiling. Wille pulled him even closer, his hands gripping the back of his sweatshirt. Simon threw his arms around him, deepening their kiss and –
“Buenos días, chicos,” Simon’s mom called, just slightly too loud.

should’ve said no (and you might still have me)
When aspiring songwriter Simon Eriksson catches his boyfriend cheating on him, just writing angry break-up songs won’t cut it. He isn’t even necessarily heart-broken as much as he’s seething. What he wants is revenge, a humiliation for a humiliation, a public shaming for a public shaming, or whatever the bible proclaims. And what better way to get back at his ex than to date the guy he’d been eying?
With his carefully crafted scheme, nothing can go wrong as Simon tries his best to get Wilhelm, the boy his ex had wanted, to fall in love with him. Right?
This is a story about how Simon seeks revenge… and Wille becomes collateral damage along the way.

The Royal Wedding of Tir ńa Lía
It annoys me that I wasn’t able to make Eredin as Aen elle tall as he should be but OH WELL. The fashion came out all over the place but hey it was fun. Velvet, carved leather, silk, yeah whatevs. I’m thinking Eredin would be forced to crown Ciri if only to legitimize himself through her blood relation to Auberon.
