Welcome to the season two finale Q&A! Like last time, I will be answering questions you left for me and even a few that I've decided need to be answered. For those who didn't catch it in the last chapter, 216 will be starting season three on August 11th! Now, onto some questions.

❝♛❞

Question One

"What your favorite young justice character"

asked by Samlam2700

To be completely honest with you, I've never watched Young Justice or anything but looking at the google generated character list: I'd have to go with Wally West or Cat Grant. I love them both in the Arrowverse CW series and how Cat Grant is a single woman who doesn't let a man control her life but at the same time is a global businesswoman. I might end up watching it one day, but for now I've never seen it.

Question Two

"What your favorite color"

asked by Samlam2700

Hmm, this might seem pretty ironic, but my favorite color is actually red. It always has been even though now it sounds silly saying this in a Flash fanfic. 

Question Three

"What inspired you to start a Barry Allen fanfic?"

asked by Anna_Samanishvili

A long time ago (probably actually not that long ago) I had a random one-shot book that I ended up discontinuing because I actually realized that I don't exactly like writing one-shots. Anyway, in that book was a character similar to Avalon (in freedom, my killian jones book) but in the Flash universe. Then ideas kinda evolved from there and boom - you have 216. 

But to answer the question, I had taken a hiatus from my killian jones book because I had a hand medical problem that's all okay now, but I was loving the Flash so much and rewatching it constantly that the ideas wouldn't leave my head and so I wrote them!

Question Four

"What made you decide to give Lucy four adopted kids?"

asked by PinkDiamond1016

Oooo, okay. A very very early rendition of 216 (before it was even named that and I was just plotting in my head), Lucy was originally a woman who could control nature and took care of any meta-human kids that were kicked out or scared after being changed by the particle accelerator. I decided to stray from this idea because 1. there would be way too many characters and 2. it didn't fit into the Flash storyline very well.

After I got the idea to have Lucy be the older sister of Hartley, I still wanted her to be a single mom who took care of meta-human kids. I'm actually adopted so I decided to add that into the story and then I was just left with how many kids she should have. I knew I wanted two to be siblings so that ended up being Aspen and Peter and then I wanted one Peter's age and Aspen's age thus giving you Genevieve and Penny.

Question Five

"Why was it named 216?"

asked by Samlam2700

Originally, it was titled 216 Pairs Of Shoes, but I decided that title was too long and lengthy so I changed it. Some of you might remember those days but you'd probably have to be a veteran of this book to remember that. Anyway, 216 is supposed to mimic the number of shoes Barry buys within this book. 216 was just a number that meant nothing to me, but was random enough with not having a benchmark number in it (that being a 0 or a 5 which I thought would make it be a little more unnatural of a number).

Question Six

Did Peter die?

asked by (loads of people commenting on the season two finale chapter)

Yes, Peter did die. For those wondering why did it have to be Peter: Aspen and Genevieve weren't featured a lot so it didn't make sense for them to die and Penny was actually a contender (I had an idea of a version in which she died) but I decided Peter made the most sense and would break hearts across the board. 

Question Seven

This question is actually for you from me:

What has been your favorite moment, character, chapter, scene, relationship, etc from the entire book? If someone has already commented your favorite, then comment your second favorite.

❝♛❞

Anyway, that concludes this S2 Q&A. I hope you guys tune in on August 11th for the beginning of season three which will start out in Barry's POV.

I'll also be answering any questions (without giving away spoilers) on this chapter for a while so feel free to comment anything you want!"
