I finished the new chapter and made a meme. I made it on my phone so I couldn't make Jayce and Viktor's Hope made of light like I imagine 😔 (little Jayce made of light glows sunset colors in my head 🥺)

Please forgive the HP usage, it was the only accurate image 😔
The way I snorted at this 😂😂😂

"I think it is literally the closest bond that two people of whatever gender can have. It's beyond the body. It's absolutely… I mean, it's soul partners, and it's beyond time and space. It is the biggest stake relationship you can have. Even if they were married and had four beautiful adopted children, I don't think it could be the same kind of power and connection of partnership that they have. The sacrifice they both made not only for this relationship, but for what this relationship also means: it's kind of two halves of the structure that needs to be in place for this society to kind of run in the end. [...] So I think to say whether it is or isn't 'romantic', frankly, would belittle it. It doesn't really touch the size of how big a deal it is. [...] Whether they see each other again, or whether they live in a little cottage by the stream- it doesn't matter. The connection is bigger than, I think, the connection between any other characters in the show, or in the world. It's beyond that. It's massive. [...]" —Harry Lloyd

Hey bestieee….. so about that last chapter… 🫠
But fr i’m loving it and i’m obsessed with you. How do you manage to make me feel like i’m in the room! (and being a creep by watching these two men who are clearly in love with each other but not realising)
I love how loved this story is. I want to shake people who haven’t read it yet and share my joy. You’re awesome, I’m excited for more!!!!!
Hey! Ahah, sorry not sorry! 😇
Honestly, I have no idea how I did it. I still can’t believe I actually finished writing this behemoth of a fanfiction (that took three and a half years of my life!) and that I'm actually sharing it with the world. Sometimes it feels less like I wrote it and more like I stumbled across it on someone’s hard drive. Like it's some kind of hidden treasure I’m now passing on to all of you. 😂
One day I hope I’ll be able to reread this story with fresh eyes. Until then, I’ll be experiencing it through your eyes, and I can't thank you enough for that!
Thank you for your support! 🥹❤️

I’ve been reading BYSS for a while and I need to put it directly into my mouth and shake it! I love it, it’s like a classic tragedy because they’re idiots but in a way that’s so painfully in character that you want to grab them by the hair, force them to look at each other, and go HE’S IN LOVE WITH YOU YOU BEAUTIFUL MORON then watch both of them go what? Huh? No he’s not! and cartoonishly look at each other at the same time.
Thank you!! 💖
I'm so glad you like the story! You're right, it would have ended much sooner if they weren't such idiots around each other. They see all the dots but can't connect them. 🥲
Anyway, the funny thing is, while I was writing BYSS, I was often as frustrated by our boys as you are. During my writing sessions, I would often daydream about what might happen if I made one of them realize the other's feelings. It's one of the things that made me so slow to finish writing the whole thing. 😂

I just discovered your BYSS fic like, two days ago and read the whole thing (latest chapter included) and oh my god???? Holy shit? You do this for free?? 😭💕
Your portrayals of the characters (side ones too) are so refreshing and it feels in-line with the canon universe. The relationship between Heimerdinger and Viktor is so sweet.
Also: THE YEARNING T_T aaaahhhhhhhh and the “but why would he like me back?” insecurity that hey, is super relatable, has me in a chokehold.
Legitimately don’t know how to wait a week for the next update.
Oh my, thank you so much! 😭💖
Glad you like the way I portray the characters! I'm also very happy you like the relationship between Heimerdinger and Viktor, because this one matters a lot to me. I love to picture Heimerdinger as some kind of eccentric, loving father figure. Plus I've always had a fondness for the chosen/found family trope.
As for the yearning, that's all Jayce and Viktor do in my story. They are professional yearners. I've also had a lovely commenter call BYSS 'THE yearnfest fic ever', which, fair. 😂
Don't worry, it'll be Sunday again before you know it. 💖

Awww... 🥲 there, there...
I wasn’t sure if you knew it was coming, since your last comment made it seem like you didn’t, but I’m glad the end of C11 still got the surprised Pikachu face out of you!

Before Your Sun Sets - Chapter 11 is available!
Viktor is sick with Hanahaki. Jayce would do anything to save him—whether it be by developing an impossible cure or trying to find out who Viktor is in love with to smack some sense into them. Little does he know, he’s chasing his own shadow.
Read chapter 11 now

You will watch and listen with interest when Jayce presents his gemstone collection.

I've got a few BYSS chapter promos sitting in my drafts, and each week I make a new gif with jayvik moments that fit whatever's happening in that chapter.
Past me left notes on which moments to gif for chapter 11, and I seriously can’t stop laughing at this one. 😂

@the-hexzone Your comment made me cackle. Please accept this meme in return, this is all I could think of after reading your comment
Tumblr media
being doomed by the narrative is cool and all but i like when a character is doomed just by being a fucking idiot. sorry that happened to you but it is entirely your own fault and you could have just chosen to not do all that
