NEW FIC: it'd be you (I'd call my home) | E | 1/18 🌿 slow burn 🌿 not-just-sex work 🌿 healing together Gwen raises a perfectly shaped blonde eyebrow. “You’re smart, you’re compassionate, you’re beautiful, and—forgive me for saying so—you are clearly in need of a better job.” #reylofic #reylo
moodboard with images of Rey's face (determined), pale pink roses climbing a brick wall, overgrown stone steps in a garden, Kylo Ben's face (with scar, looking down like a sad boy), and bookshelves behind a pair of velvet chairs. at the bottom are the words it'd be you I'd call my home, by peculiar galaxiesSummary:
Fed up with working at TeedoMart, Rey surprises herself by accepting a job as a “domestic intimacy provider” to reclusive tech CEO Kylo Ren. She’s nervous about the job and all the intimacy it entails, but she needs the money to pay off student loans from the degree she didn’t even get to finish.

Ben Solo—known to the outside world as Kylo Ren, CEO of Dyad Energetics—hasn’t left his Chandrila estate in over a decade. On the advice of his therapist (sort of), he hires a young woman for companionship, though he’s braced for her to quit and run away the instant she sees his face.
 
Instead, two lonely souls find kinship, belonging, and the opportunity to heal together. If only their arrangement didn’t involve an eighty-page contract, a six-figure salary, and a potential expiration date....

i am alive, my wrist is just still injured, so i am over here going at a snail’s pace on most things ~ here is an ongoing wip because markers are easier on my hands right now #myart #copics #mixedmedia
two ballet dancers on the foreground of a stage. the woman has fallen gracefully into his arms, her hand is outstretched and she looks limp but she only looks that way, i am sure this actually takes incredible poise. the man holding her is Very Concerned. also his hand is in the wrong position, but i did not realize that when i sketched it in and now it has marker all over it so we’re just going to have to go with it okay. the scene is in shades of grey and the woman’s skirt is sheer

will I ever be able to get Daisy's face right? doubt it. It's her, but it's not her. but it passes. but it could be more accurate. but then, it's stylised and it's not supposed to be her cause it's supposed to be the character, but then again- anyway, WIP! :D I'm cooking.

Something I think is kind of cool about Rey's parents names (I don't know if this was intentional or not) is Miramir might have been inspired by the Spanish/Portuguese term Miramar which means Ocean view...
Rey's Father and Mother, Dothan and Miramir. Kylo Ren telling Rey "You imagine an Ocean" as he looks through her mind.

I need a little extra motivation to finish this chapter draft, so we're ignoring time all together and posting a #reyloww snippet. 👀
Heart sinking, she withdraws, but he clutches at her—unexpectedly, desperately, holding fast to her like a drowning man might cling to a spar of driftwood. His head on her shoulder, now; his face tucked in the crook of her neck, just above where her pulse thunders a frantic storm.
Her arms around him, more natural than breathing in this moment. Embracing him so very tightly, because there’s no other way to stretch her arms all the way around his broad frame, and she refuses to do anything less than hold every bit of him.
She knows what it’s like to fall apart, and how much worse it feels to put yourself back together alone.

as promised, a longer (and on-brand) review of 'The Irresistible Urge to Fall For Your Enemy'! (black cat not included in purchases to the best of my knowledge, but ymmv) 🦢🗡️
photo of the front cover of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy by Brigette Knightley. the nose of a black cat is visible in the lower left.
I’ve just finished (devoured) The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy and am blown away. I giggled, chortled, snorted, snickered, and perhaps even sighed with admiration over several particularly lovely turns of phrase. 

Readers of DMATMOOBIL will recognize certain similarities, most notably the Highly Competent (and thus Deservedly Arrogant) main characters; the unparalleled banter between the Dashing Dastard, who prides himself on his excellence in Skullduggery and Daring Deeds while utterly unencumbered by morals, and the Paragon of Healing who wields scalpel, magical seith, and her sharp tongue with equally incisive brilliance. 

However, I was pleasantly surprised to find these familiarly snarky Persons—pardon me, Protagonists—in a story and world full of new beats, new characters (including several unforgettable capital-C Characters), and a new setting much more interesting and intelligently developed than a certain Other-Which-Shall-Not-Be-Named. (I do have a soft spot for an alternate-history magical UK setting and etymology nerdiness; the combination of these elements immediately earned my undying appreciation.) (Also, though the writing never bludgeons you over the head—or worse, the back of the neck—with this fact, nearly everyone is queer.)

I’m eagerly (impatiently, imploringly) awaiting the conclusion of the duology, and will undoubtedly be rereading Irresistible Urge for another round of Knightly’s Fortified Enemies-to-Lovers (a trademark combination of cheeky banter, unforgettable characters, lush environmental descriptions, twisty intrigue, and the potential to reduce the reader to a gasping pile of giggles).
