there are three very dumb things about writing llojavi fic that drive me nuts

1) i just know in my heart of hearts that lloyd would not start anything with javier without revealing who he was, at least not on purpose. Lloyd struggles to pretend he's actually the count and countess's son, which he had no say in happening in the first place, you can't tell me he would purposefully get into a romantic relationship without being guilty as hell not telling the whole truth.

So okay, alright, what would make lloyd purposefully reveal his secre- NOTHING. CANONICALLY NOTHING. BITCH TAKES THAT SHIT UNTIL A BATTLE WITH HELL ITSELF IN WHICH HE'S PRETTY SURE HE WONT SURVIVE ANYWAYS.

So it's either post-canon, or you better figure out how to accidentally trip them into a relationship OTL

2) there is no way on gods green earth lloyd would even entertain the idea of starting a relationship in the second half of the novel THAT MAN IS BUSY SAVING HIS FAMILY ROMANCE CAN WAIT

So it's either the first half of the story, post-canon, or you gotta figure out what on earth it would take to have that man think about having a partner when he's racing against the clock to save the people he loves.

3) Javier i am so mad at you. Why are you so powerful. Where's my dramatic tension. By halfway through the novel the man can instantly defeat a bone dragon and can heal worrisome wounds within minutes. How am i supposed to work with this. Fucker.

So you either gotta do the first half of the novel, really fucking AMP up the power levels of your antagonist (you gonna make something stronger than an angel??? huh???), or entirely rely on making a political drama where his power isnt helpful.

probably a good thing that the novel is so tight that finding cracks to play around with in the second half is tough for me to do but like also. ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡

#IVE DONE THIS TO MYSEEEEEEEEELF #AUUUGH #writing a fic set just before the bone dragon bc i need javier to NOT be a fucking grandmaster #and im soooooo irritated #anyways. i had to write this post out bc i needed to exorcise it from my brain #begone!#tged #sun writes fic
