what do you guys think of me continuing “you were born in july” and nellie into robby’s sabbatical, instead of an epilogue? so basically 10 more chapters… and a lot more angst
swingaugust
@laromantica yay ok i’m gonna do it
laromantica
@swingaugust angst??? yes pls!!
swingaugust
did i listen to adele’s 30 and lily allen’s West End Girl to get into the character of a 42 year old divorcee? yes, yes i did
swingaugust
thank you @laromantica haha
laromantica
@swingaugust | this is the writing equivalent to method acting & i love it
swingaugust
i'm not kidding, using a girl's littmann stethoscope to listen to her heartbeat is so romantic to me.... and i really think trinity santos would do that too bc damn was it intimate as hell
swingaugust
i promise i’m writing “twenty dollars and souvenirs” and updating it soon hopefully
also my other stories are not forgotten either. just had a rough few weeks so need time to get back on the groove
:)
swingaugust
do you think Léa from “honey, we’re fragile” gets super passionate about the french revolution?
swingaugust
i agree
swingaugust
@ollieismybaby hahaha that’s so real
ollieismybaby
In the very best way possible, absolutely
swingaugust
i'm gonna write léa as an activist as a kind of homage to the actress she was inspired by, adèle haenel, who "quit the French film industry in 2023 in protest against its structural racism, patriarchy, and
"general complacency" towards sexual predators". she's a queen. a french political activist. so much respect for this woman.

watched a noah wyle interview recently and that man is disappointing fr
swingaugust
@Musicpotterhead i get it, no worries. i’ve also seen a lot about him on tiktok haha and i can tell he knows its happening bc he refers to comments he’s seen online! anyway, hope that helped explain why a bit
Musicpotterhead
@swingaugust No yeah, don't worry, I'm not calling you on it. It's just I'm seeing more and more comments about him and I never really took interest into him as a person so I wanted to know a bit more. I'll look it up, thanks !

“you were born in july” nick is the kind of guy to say “nellie, you know, i’m not just marrying your mom, i’m marrying the family. that makes us family.” like okayyyy nick. thank you.
swingaugust
@ollieismybaby but that makes him genuine
swingaugust
@ollieismybaby yeah i imagine him as cringey/try hard so it makes sense
ollieismybaby
lol, yeah it’s can low-key be a tiny bit cringy but it’s also sweet at the same time
( I feel like the best things are always a little cringy)
