@thegoodbutter_ hehehe sorry I’m just tryna break down the winning formula to your ridiculously hot prose 😮‍💨 every butter fic would have some iteration of him calling her sick and twisted if i had my way!!!

[ess @insideopened]

@banalityweevil thank you lulu!! 😙

i don’t think it’s the only thing, but it’s definitely a factor — the Paradise Lost quote at ch1 perhaps foreshadows this and other key themes: coveting that which is forbidden to you, falls from grace, seduction, predestination, etc… lots to be untangled!!

dating is tough

@Lexicon935 that means so much, thank you lexi!! 💓 so excited to get this update finished, I think we’re finally getting there — though chronic indecisiveness keeps throwing spanners in the works! 🫠

[ess @insideopened]

@TurduckenSan oh my god that would be a dream?? my romanticism of nyc has only taken on a new intensity after reading darklina, so with you and your sweet baby in the mix i will be showing up at your doorstep imminently!!!

[ess @insideopened]

@darklinastyle13 heheh!! 😗

[ess @insideopened]

@wonderlandgabby right?? she’s so determined to play these little games to avoid what’s right in front of her ☹️

[ess @insideopened]

@sheistolerable heheh 😇 no he certainly takes her enjoyment Very Seriously!!!

[ess @insideopened]

@__xoxoanna welcome!! today we r looking for ways to make daddy mad

[ess @insideopened]

@TurduckenSan what can I say except I love it when daddy’s angry :/

[ess @insideopened]

@TurduckenSan mirika you can't just go around saying things like this because i have attachment issues and your tortie baby is my new best friend

[ess @insideopened]

@banalityweevil UGH i love her so much. 😔 you need to stop or i’ll be sneaking into your house to add this to the top of your wip list

[ess @insideopened]

@banalityweevil :( at least she and the turtle remain companions even in death, perhaps she’ll even talk to him on occasion, a confidante to whom she can confide in all her trickery?

[ess @insideopened]

@lr_cee don’t mind me, just getting a lil weepy over how hard alina and sasha are fighting to find the right balance for their family!!! nbd!

[ess @insideopened]

@kneeinjurie kath you are waging war against my mental health today

[ess @insideopened]

@banalityweevil you are fanning the flames of my curiosity!!! presumably Mr Morozov has no idea about the first — nor the second — engagement?? and i mean the social security card prompts far too many questions to be contained within a single tweet... the turtle?? did it live to a grand old age?

[ess @insideopened]

@TurduckenSan a tortie baby!!!! i love her
