My "Like Moths to a Flame (Or, the Redemption Arc of Sebastian Sallow) Series" is officially COMPLETE! 
          	
          	30th March 2023 ---> 13th January 2026 (34 months(!); I DID THE MATHS)... 
          	
          	Just under 400,000 words...
          	
          	4 long fics, 2 one-shot collections, 1 Anne/Ominis spinoff fic, 1 short story, 5 standalone one-shots... 
          	
          	And 1 creator (me, hi!) who wrote (nearly) every day, learned how to draw (both traditional and digital art), and met so many lovely people while working on this series. And now it's finally, completely, YOURS to enjoy in its entirety. WILD, MAN. 
          	
          	Thank you to everyone - old, new, and even future(!) readers - who joined me (and Sebastian and Damien, of course) on this crazy unforgettable journey. It's meant (and continues to mean) the world to me. <3
          	
          	Writers are supposed to write for themselves, I know, but I also wrote this series for YOU, and I hope Sebastian's and Damien's story sticks with you in some way, even if it's a small one.
          	
          	Happy reading, wherever your interests land next, and stay awesome, y’all.

@Olia_Star AHHHH THANK YOU. Your comments were such a joy for me to read! And that's very kind of you. <3 
          	  
          	  FYI - I'm not cross-posting it here, but a fandom friend and I co-wrote a fic and I just posted the first chapter on AO3 today. It's called "Return to Sender," in case you want to check it out. No pressure though!

The-Lady-of-Shalott

Happy holidays! An early chapter drop is my gift to y'all. <3
          
          Fun fact: "Forward to Time Past" has a reveal in it that I've been holding onto for the past (nearly) three years. Enjoy!

Olia_Star

@The-Lady-of-Shalott yeah don’t worry, but i did look at my selling for a few seconds.

We're in the final stretch now! Only a few more chapters until Sebastian and Damien's story officially ends. Enjoy today's chapter, my friends. The chapter was heavily inspired by Florence + the Machine's song "Seven Devils." ("Seven devils all around you... Seven devils in your house..." )

The-Lady-of-Shalott

@Olia_Star I feel ya, my friend. It also makes me very happy to read that you feel that way, so thanks <3

Oh, hello there. Early chapter drop to "And Time, a Maniac Scattering Dust," anyone?  This chapter was inspired by "The Tale of Two Brothers" scene in Deathly Hallows, Pt. 1. Enjoy!

The-Lady-of-Shalott

Ahahaha, thank you. I'll add it to my soul jar. XD

Thank you so much for 2K reads on "You Cannot Put a Fire Out" (still my favorite fic in my Sebastian Sallow Redemption Arc series, although the final fic is slowly but surely edging it out, per usual lol), as well as 1K reads on my brief foray into JayVik! I don't know if I'll ever write another Arcane long fic, but it was extremely enjoyable to branch out into another fandom (and a nice break for my brain too). Have a great rest of the week, my friends. <3

2.5 years... 4 long fics, 3 one-shot collections, 1 three-part short story, 1 spin-off fic... over 400,000 words... and one (very) tired Sebastian Sallow later... 
          
          "And Time, a Maniac Scattering Dust," the final installment in my "Like Moths to a Flame (Or, the Redemption Arc of Sebastian Sallow)" series is (finally) here! 
          
          Because the past isn't done with Sebastian Sallow. And fate? Well, fate's never played fair.
          
          Weekly updates until early 2026. 
          
          Happy reading, my loves! <3

Happy Pride Month, lovelies! I've added a new chapter to "Sebastian and Damien: The School Years." Since the collection is in timeline order, the new chapter is smack-dab in the middle ("Sick Boy"). 
          
          Also, just so you are all aware, I'm participating in Hogwarts Legacy Pride Week on Tumblr from June 9th through June 15th, so expect more chapters to be added to this one-shot collection later in the month. I will also be adding a bonus chapter to "Burning Bright," called "And Now I Hear a Symphony (Or, Damien's Vows)." 
          
          There are a few other one-shots I've written that I won't be posting here on Wattpad, so if you want to follow along, you can either find them on Tumblr or on AO3. My Tumblr and AO3 usernames are the same: TheLadyofShalott1989. <3
          
          ALSO! I am nearly done with the first draft of the final installment of my "Like Moths to a Flame (Or, the Redemption Arc of Sebastian Sallow)" series, so it's looking like a Summer 2025 release in the cards. Woohoo!

@cheetitospicosos Oh my goodness! Thank you <3 I hope you enjoy the additional chapters. I always have a blast writing Sebastian and Damien, but one of the chapters in particular was more fun than usual because I had the pleasure of doing a deep-dive on terms related to horseback riding... lmao.

"Into the Quaffleverse" is officially complete! 
          
          If you're in for some wild and crazy crossover shenanigans, not the least of which includes THREE eras of Hogwarts students meeting each other amidst a Quidditch tournament to the DEATH (yes, you read that right), well, this fic might very well be up your alley. 
          
          I leave you with one of my favorite (spoiler-free) paragraphs: 
          
          "Peter had such an odd fixation on people not believing him about things. It was really starting to get on Remus's nerves. Like anyone would ever believe that quiet, unassuming Wormtail would lie."
