Listen she is just here to know more than you do, and be nice about it, and maybe also to fuck you if that’s something you’d be into, but not if you’re younger than her kids because like. Mm no. Boundaries are important and she’s pretty good at those.

See I write in so many canons where the moms are absent or dead or horrible and I was just like you know what. We have zero canon information about Morvran’s mother. And all we know about his father is his surname, that he’s a prince, and that the conspirators knew he wouldn’t go along with anything they wanted.

so I was like. We can have an actual good mom, as a treat. And I can make her as unconventional as I like, because nobody can stop me.

Ciri is like. She knows she’s a fairtyale princess and she has seen firsthand all the horrible shit that the narrative tropes will bring her, and what I want for her, is that she’s braced for a horrible mother-in-law, because that’s always what happens in the stories, right? And then

well then she gets a mother-in-law from a different literary tradition, and that different literary tradition is that she writes extremely steamy romance novels, because she wants to, in her free time, because she finds it hot.

Anyway I haven’t yet sketched out what their relationship is going to be like but I know it’s going to be spectacular.

(anyway if anyone missed it this is the story https://archiveofourown.org/works/42285780 i published yesterday with Teofina hosting a sex party because some mothers-in-law know how to party) (Your picture was not posted)
