I am beyond excited to learn more about Sebastian Grimm in book 2 of the Wildersongs trilogy. But here is a incomplete list of what we DO know about him:

He hates lying to his mom <3

His hair lost its pigment after overusing his magic while casting for the first time

People think he overly scrutinizes spells, but he’s really memorizing them to account for his reading disorder

He planned to take over his mom’s flower trade before discovering he was a caster

His ears turn red when he’s embarrassed

Grimm understood there was a serious issue of Leo’s consent while under the curse (avoided commands, never took Leo’s affection as truth)

He acts similar to his mentor, Phade, who nominated him to the Fount when he was 11

He gets motion sick, poor guy

Phade is the only instructor in the Fount that’ll allow Grimm and Leo to work together

He’s trying to join the Coterie and get a seat in the Citadel so he can change the system from within (we love a man who can organize for systemic change)

People from his village, Dwull, have ostracized him since he was a kid. They blame him for losing control of the rain spell and the subsequent flooding (that distance from others has followed him to the Fount)

He seems only mildly affronted that Leo's Grandmagic threw him out a window in second tier

That man has so much restraint and I just need to know what he’s holding back. Biting his tongue to keep from saying what? Holding himself in check so much that his body trembles from effort. What was he going to do?!

We need his POV in the next book!! Grimm may have be outwardly put together, but Ik inside must be raging.

Have you ever devoured a book in one day

I took imposter syndrome and beat it over the head by taking the art I didn't like and making it better. From my sketchbook to digital form, enjoy the fruits of my labor, cuz I sure did! Grimmlove is saving me from myself.

some books read in 2024: sorcery & small magics, maiga doocy

Desperate to undo the curse binding them to each other, an impulsive sorcerer and his curmudgeonly rival venture deep into a magical forest in search of a counterspell—only to discover that magic might not be the only thing pulling them together.

thinking not only about the reveal that the love spell has been broken by grimm developing feelings for leo and grimm just staring helplessly at leo for a long moment because he realizes it, too… but afterward when grimm is nearly dying and leo is thinking about how much he loves him while he’s no longer under the influence of the spell. he has feelings for grimm too. but he doesn’t realize the spell has been broken so he doesn’t even know. i gotta go lie down

Just finished reading “Sorcery and Small Magics” by Maiga Doocy and it’s having me rethink my whole taste in books because I thought I hated romantasy but apparently if you give me a disaster gay with a true slowburn rivals to allies to maybe-friends to possibly-one-day-lovers arc with his forced proximity outwardly put-together bf I will eat it the fuck up

Leovander Loveage my beloved????

Medium stakes that is comfy but still has an engaging plot that can be intense when it needs to be my beloved????

Cool and interesting world-building that’s well-integrated into the story my beloved????

Did I mention Leovander Loveage my beloved???? Because I love him dearly.

Apparently this book came out like a month ago and there’s no fandom for it yet which is a crime against me personally. I cannot be the only one out here fighting for my life waiting for book 2.

I actually believe leo's curse was broken when they were in that cave/valley, because grimm told him to take out his sword when they saw the monster but leo didn't. also grimm absolutely threw himself in front of the arrow out of love

Please tell me I’m not the only one skeptical of Cassius Bethe in Sorcery and Small Magics?! Like he just happens to bump into Leo in the library. In the confusion, he just so Happens to swap in the most dangerous spell imaginable. And proceeds to give Leo advice that just so HAPPENS to ensure that the spell will definitely be cast? No no no. I’m calling it. Don’t let his overly helpful veneer fool you. That boy is scheming.

Just read a truly adorable book (Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy) and loved how it ended but knew the sequel would be good esp with the world building and the main pair only halfway on their enemies to ???? journey - only to discover that the book came out THIS MONTH and there's not even a hint of when the sequel will come out.

Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy

“By the time the night was over, I was drunk, my nose was bleeding, and Sebastian Grimm was furious with me. It should be noted that only one of these things was unusual.”

[vigscribbler]

Quick Grimm sketch cause I’m still thinking about Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy.

Go read it. I had a wonderful time :D
