Wow, it’s already been a whole year. Happy first birthday to this fic! 

I can’t believe I still get comments, it really means a lot ♥

A Losing Game: Chapter 1!

Moving to Argentina right after high school was the wisest choice Tooru ever made in his life.

He’s always had a plan in his mind: become a great volleyball player, and then return to Japan to keep the promise he made to Iwaizumi. Getting heartbroken was never part of it.

Or, an alternative take to the time skip where Tooru wears the Japanese flag over his heart.

If you want to know how Oikawa would reply to this question, you can read it here!

Tooru and Hajime had everything planned out for their future, but the stars had a different idea.

It’s finally Spriiing! My favourite season!

Also Hanami Season in Japan, so what better time than now to *subtly* advertise Waiting in the Stars?

Cherry blossoms and meddling stars will welcome you if you decide to give this fic a chance ♥

Second to last chapter. I’m so not ready to say goodbye to this fic after so many months, that’s why I waited before making this post *sigh. Anyway, here you can finally read some fluff ♥ and some flirting too.

@wecomrades tagged me and I can’t resist a question game lol

1. Italy.

2. Writing: just Haikyuu lately. Honestly when I write I basically turn anything else off, so it’s better like this haha. How can you write more than one fic at a time is beyond me, kudos to everyone who does that.

Reading: mostly Haikyuu, AFTG, The Raven Cycle, Daiya no Ace and Yuri on Ice.

I’m not really active here on tumblr, or any other social media. I’m a “behind the scenes” fangirl haha.

3. All of the above? Haha. I’d say hot chocolate but I can’t actually drink it whenever I want, so I guess tea. But I also can’t exist without my two daily espressos, so there’s that.

4. I have an office job. This definitely sounds super boring but it has its interesting sides.

5. Braised meat with polenta and basically any kind of risotto.

6. I don’t know if this qualifies as ambition, but going on my dream holiday is the first thing that I thought about. I had everything planned and then covid happened. Oh, and also to buy a house someday. 

Hobbies... reading, travelling, cooking and baking. Writing when inspiration strikes.

7. Ravenclaw (though I don’t support JKR anymore)

8. Mumford and Sons, Ultimo. And okay, probably Niall Horan.

9. Chemistry lol. And baking. They’re almost like making potions.

10. Probably Henrietta, Virginia (TRC). I’d say Cabeswater but, knowing me, I’d end up conjuring my worst nightmare haha.

Get To Know The Writer Challenge. Answer these questions and then tag 3 more creators that you want hear from, and then pass it on!x

1. Where are you from? 2. Fandoms? 3. Tea, coffee or hot-chocolate 4. What's your occupation (ie, job, student?) 5. Fav food? 6. Ambitions/Hobbies? 7. Hogwarts house? 8. Fav musical artists(s)? 9. What do you think is the closet thing to real magic? 10. If you had to choose a fictional world to live in for the rest of your life, where would it be?

1. Scotland - Edinburgh

2. LOTR/Hobbit, Vikings, The Walking Dead, Hannibal, Harry Potter,

3. Coffee and Hot hot chocolate.

4. Student, part time waitress and full-time dumbass.

5. Spiezle or my local chippy's vegan chicken nuggets.

6. To become a university lecturer and an author!

7. Slytherclaw.

8. I don't have one but I listen to a lot of Hozier and curated Youtube playlists (Halloween, dark royal core and writing playlists.)

9. Words - “Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.” - Albus Dumbledore. And I think this is so true.

10. Middle-Earth! I want to live like a Hobbit and eat 7 meals a day!

“In the battle of height that is volleyball, libero might be the only position where a short player can thrive. However, I’m not a libero because of my height. Even if I were two metres tall, I’d still play as a libero. Even if you can’t spike the ball, even if you can’t block it, if the ball doesn’t touch the floor, then you can’t lose in volleyball. And the one who is best in ensuring that is the libero.”

HOW THE HELL DID NOYA END UP BEING A FISHERMAN. A PLAYER LIKE HIM SHOULD COME TO ITALY TO BE ON THE COURT, NOT TO DISCOVER THE BEAUTY OF MEDITERRANEAN SEA. HARUICHI WHAT WERE YOU THINKING.

If you could scream anything haikyuu related at the top of your lungs and get away with it, what would it be?

EPILOGUE

Wattpad - Ao3

Summary: Grace Whitehead, code name Hélène, has a 5 million-franc price on her head, but that doesn’t stop her commitment to SOE, Special Operations Executive. On D-Day, she parachutes into Normandy along with the leader of French Resistance and their radioman, to deliver intelligence to the Airborne. When the head of SOE tells her the Gestapo has raised the price on her head, the only way to let it die is by faking her death and going undercover with Easy Company. Will her knowledge as a spy and as a sniper help them through the entire war?

THANK YOU.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sticking around with Grace and me in this amazing and crazy journey until the very end.

Thank you for your comments and votes and reblogs and support on this fic, it meant a lot and it kept this story going.

Thank you for making me moodboards and edits and for taking time to read Grace's story.

A special thank you goes to @hellitwasyoufirstsergeant, for beta reading this story from the start and helping me and supporting me always. Ily <3 A special thank you goes also to my best friend @what-ever-happened, who basically got into Band of Brothers just to be able to read my fic and helping me out with Hélène’s major editing. I love you so much and I can't thank you enough for your help 💛

Not many of you know this, but English is not my first language, so that’s the reason I decided to have this whole 200k monster getting proof read before each update. Also, yeah, I’m super proud of myself for getting this story done all by myself!

Thank YOU @tvserie-s-world, @embersjanuary, @bobspeirs, @thoughpoppiesblow for commenting on every chapter; your comments always gave me such happiness and I'm so glad I got to share this long journey with you. I love you! Thank you @wexhappyxfew for your constant support, it meant the world, my lil bean :)

And thank you, reader, if you came this far and supported me with votes or comments or just by reading this fic. I thank you, and I hope to see you on my next fic :)

Here and now I'm announcing my new Band of Brothers fic, "The Remains for Tomorrow", a story I'm SO PROUD OF even though it's still work in progress, and involves three OFC. I'll give some major info in the upcoming months :)

When I told you this fic won't be the last of Grace, I meant it: I'm also announcing "Wish Me Luck" (coming soon), which is a one-shots collection of Hèléne's missing moments; it won't be a new story, just small bits of Grace's life before, during and after the long fic itself. ALSO I give you the chance to kind of participating to it, by giving me prompts. For example, you want to read about a normal day of Grace and Easy at Camp Mourmelon? Ask me, and I'll write it. You want to read about Grace and Henri? Ask me, and I'll write it. And so on :)

That said, I'm going to leave this fic with one last, huge and wholehearted THANK YOU! ♥
