i cant believe azriel didnt knock bas out and go in looking for her especially after the more than acquainted comment lol but good for him, punching civilians is bad. at least he's finally telling everyone about what happened, so excited to see everyone's reactions, actually wondering if elain will have some fallback since she's willingly holding back important visions from everyone, actually surprised azriel already knows and wasnt a little mad at her for not telling him he could be dying.

also her selling the earrings off like that? good for her. i wonder who the ring is for though.

this is going to sound bad but eris calling her pathetic and all that was so good to watch, i mean feel bad for her but she needed to hear it because it's true. i mean when he asked if she didn't want to know what's going on with her family and she just asked "why would i?".... yes why would you care about your family, great question genius. she's so smart sometimes but then turns around and does so many dumb things. maybe now she'll start changing though. and considering she'd feel guilty enough at using a scarf because it was bought with rhys's money, i can only imagine how guilty she will feel when she comes back because she did in fact run to the enemy

also i thought her power was fire? but it felt like light or something at the end? did i read it wrong - 🧶

‘but good for him, punching civilians is bad.’

I was considering writing them clashing but then realised Az is a 500+ year old Illyrian warrior with extensive training who’s been through two wars and knows how to torture people, and while Bas is good at street fighting and has good control over his magic, he’s also younger than 150 (I haven’t decided on an age) and an innocent civilian 🫢

‘also her selling the earrings off like that? good for her. i wonder who the ring is for though.’

About time she got rid of them 🙄 Even Az would be pleased to know she’d done something about it 😭

Hmmm, no idea who the ring could be for 😳 absolutely clueless 🫣 I wouldn’t know a thing 😶‍🌫️

‘this is going to sound bad but eris calling her pathetic and all that was so good to watch’

🤨🤨🤨 hello sadism? 🤨🤨🤨 heavy degradation? 🤨🤨🤨

‘i mean feel bad for her but she needed to hear it because it's true.’

Ohhhhhhh right. Yeah, totally with you there 😙

‘i mean when he asked if she didn't want to know what's going on with her family and she just asked "why would i?".... yes why would you care about your family, great question genius.’

In all seriousness, I’d argue it was a pretty risky move on Eris’ part—with her being so unsure of herself and having some fairly obvious self-esteem issues, it could have so easily turned into a real fight between them with reader getting seriously hurt from how blunt he was being.

However, I do think in that situation it was the right thing to do, but it was something only Eris could do because of their dynamic. With the IC I feel they’d be too gentle and understanding to do anything like that unless Nesta had a lapse and went back into a temporary self-destruction mode, but that would feel kind of cheap to use her in that way?

Overall, she did definitely need that kind of harsh wake up call, even if it was difficult for her to hear.

‘maybe now she'll start changing though.’

Heavy emphasis on start 🤭

(I’m laughing because I’m the writer and I get to decide what happens next)

‘and considering she'd feel guilty enough at using a scarf because it was bought with rhys's money, i can only imagine how guilty she will feel when she comes back because she did in fact run to the enemy’

In all seriousness, it’s probably going to be a tricky conversation on everyone’s part. I feel like there’s genuinely a high potential for some kind of miscommunication unless reader sets herself straight and says exactly what happened and why with clinical precision. Otherwise things are just going to be misunderstood and given the wrong reaction, so let’s just hope she pulls herself together in time :)

‘also i thought her power was fire? but it felt like light or something at the end? did i read it wrong’

So, reader still doesn’t know the exact details of her magic and won’t for a bit since I kind of doubt the event that inspired it could happen in Prythian, which makes finding a way for them to understand it a little difficult, but everything is still in the realm of speculation for the moment :)

It is true that she often gets quite a painful burning sensation across her hands though, which was part of why she was so reluctant to peer closer at it, as well as it having some unpleasant consequences on her body, like the lumps (that bleed), scaliness, and random pains, as well as another detail that’s been mentioned but not fully addressed. I know, it’s lovely 😊

Hello um im SO sorry that this will be long but please eodhk its been a whole night and i cant stop thinking about your work moonlight . Every time i hear someone say "baby" my mind zoooms back to your work. Gosh..to have baby as your nickname [head in my hands] but yohr writing was soooo incredible like each and every scene was packed with flavour and fun and not once did the writing stray or feel like a filler ahh i would love to eat moonlight <3. Also i have never seen the movie because my parents never let me as a kid so i dove into the au really excited and NOW I WANT TO WATCH THE MOVIE SOK BADD. But i'd lije to share certain thoughts as scenes i love. First of all...baby's whole personality (she's MY baby shes my sweet meow i love her) and every description of sunghoon made me feel soo many things but that scene where baby's in the staff area and he motions her closer (phew i get you baby i get it) and the part where she presses closer so she can lean far back and trust him to not let go is SO important because its got gorge visuals, they already trust each other (somewhat) and foreshadowingkedjk. Jake my sweet baby he was soo silly and goofy throughout. Im really glad chaewon was safe and it was so natural of her to be hostile to baby at first ah but HEESUNG?? GOD I DISLIKED HIM SO MUCH HE WAS A FREAK!! Especially the way his personality switched (but the scene where sunghoon jumps over the banister to punch him..crowd cheering) but he was such a hypcrite that heesung boy..he aint right. And also i really hate myself for being somewhat attracted to jay even though he was written to be a real sly mean person but what if red is my fav colour? 🤨 that stupid joke of his the what makes me diff from all the boys at yale..why was i laughing and twirling my hair MOVE BABY its my turn..um anyway i hated max so much nit kidding lije how can you allow bunglow bunnies to do whatever they want with YOUR staff and then get mad at your staff for finding peace and love? Like arent they already involving themselves with the guests?? Poor sunghoon my heart broke when those cougar women pulled their old school moves on him like come on youre married and thats soo creepy sighhh. I was soo worried that doc might nevr find iut what heesung did but im glad seeun was safe as well even thoigh..she didnt tell doc oh this boy aint right i dont want him..andthat scene where they practise the lift..im getting light headed wheres MY SUMMER DANCING FUN AT A FANCY RICH RESORT WHERE I MEET A HANDSOME MAN WHO TEACHES ME HOW TI DANCE (head in my hands 2x). When baby said fight back harder..and she hid sunghoon from doc i was sobbing in my head like baby girk wear your man like a badge be proud of him. Thank you sm for focusing on his dimples really 😭😭💘. And that scene where ms jung drops all the wallets was so well hidden in the plot somethinf so small byt meaningful i really took it as a "rich people are weird" motif until the wallet part bur argh..max getting mad at sunghoon for ""stealing"" instead of listening to baby (a woman in that era God forbid women know things that men dont) but then STILL firing him and sunghoon accepting defeat but the scene where BABY accepts the loss and sunghoon almost breaks (head in my hands sobbing 3x). Thank you so much foe this wonderfuk work filled with agony and fun and pure romantic love and softness waa ..im calling myself 😵‍💫 anon for now...i mighr drop by again..sorry for the length 😭😭💘💖 thank you love you

U NEED TO WATCH THE MOVIE im ngl like i copied every plot point off of it, all i did was write it down and slightly change the characters but other than that the movie did everything lmaooo im sure the makers of dirty dancing could sue me atp BUT YEAH i wanted to make sunghoons character as insane and attractive as possible bc in the movie hes wheeeww like patrick swayze back in the day was.. yeah WATCH THE MOVIE and heeseung bahahhahaha yeah his character is horrible no redemption for him but jay's character in the movie is really terrible i tried to make him better in the fic 😭😭 cz i dont think hes an actually bad person like heeseung hes just an entitled rich kid lol and yes max is pretty bad too AND IKKK I WANT THIS SUMMER TOO COULD U IMAGINE anonnn ur too amzing thank u so much for this ask i love u more...💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
