Hello, my lovelies! How are we all? I hope you've had a lovely New Year and Christmas for those who celebrate.
I haven't posted in a while but I've been doing lots of writing bts. I do most of my writing in either hospital waiting rooms or at 4am apparently - sometimes both XD. Mini life update - I've just recently gotten an AMAZING new doctor, she *LISTENED(?)* to me and let me make *DECISIONS(?)* about my own medical care. Crazy stuff really, she was so nice and now I'm actually receiving useful help for my chronic illnesses & disabilities which makes life so much nicer.
Now, while I'm working a lot on Hfitf, I've also had a lot of inspiration to work on another multichapter fic that I've had going on in the background for ages now. I don't think I'll actually be posting any of it for a little while, I normally like to have a good chunk of the plot written before I post anything so I can mostly keep on top of updating schedules (ish, sometimes it just goes out the window anyway XD). Currently, I've got the first 3 chapters and then lots of out of sequence chapters for later down the line and I've got lots of ideas for plot and tropes I'd like to write about later. In the course of writing it, I've reached an inevitable point where I, of course, want to loop Alpheus into the story - he always finds a way in.
This fic is post-canon (sort of) so presumably Alpheus is living on land, having himself a splendid time but I have this wonderful idea in my mind that he owns some kind of really chaotic seaside store. Like I can just see him selling the most random things and being this strange guy who runs around like a lunatic and has a lil ARIA robot running around after him.
I wanted to ask for all your thoughts about if I do decide to go with this, what kind of shop do we think Alpheus will be running? What kind of things is he selling? I could see maybe artefacts and second-hand stuff but also something random like rubber ducks or homemade tourist t-shirts.
