You know what would be real mean to Teddy in particular is if I made one of the band members sound like Hozier when he sings cuz he's undeniably Jamie’s favorite artist and if a cute guy covers a Hozier song it's gonna bug the fuck out of Teddy cuz James is gonna be enamored lmao they're so silly.
Julian: sounds exactly like hozier
James: hey that's neat!
Teddy:
Victoire who knows Teddy can be jealous for no reason:

I did start the next chapter but I don't really like the opening so I may scrap it and start over. Bleh. Starting chapters is hard.

This chapter was a fucking blast to write. Jealous Teddy anyone? 👀
Actually, it sort of looked like he was pouting about something, and James tilted his head as he leaned forward over the counter to get a better look at his irritated face. “You good there, Ted?”
Teddy’s eyes shifted to meet James’, the green fading back into blue. “Yes, why?”
James arched his brow up in disbelief but didn’t push it, instead sitting back in his seat so he could look at Roxanne, who was staring directly up at the mirror ceiling like she was blatantly trying to avoid her cousin.
Freddy laughed, though, folding the rag he’d used to hit Mason. “He’s making his jealous face.”
“Jealous over what?” James asked, and Roxanne set her cup heavily against the bar.
“Merlin, they’re here finally. Delacour’s late as fucking always, yeah?"

Good morning remember when I hinted that I was going to commission art of Jamie studying with Helena? 👉👈 I'm hecking beyond excited to show it to you finally.
Look at themmmm, I haven't seen much art of Helena over the years but this has gotta be the most stunning creative take on her I've ever seen, she's so freaking pretty 😭 they're discussing homework heehhehehe.
I was super honored to be able to comm talitasami on Instagram for this piece, she really brought it to life and I am so beyond pleased with it 🥹 I've actually commissioned Talita a few times before, too, her style is just so gorgeous. You absolutely should take a look at her work!

Well.
I guess I'm splitting this one into two parts as well.
See this is why this fic is longer than I expected 🤦♀️ you're welcome??

Thought it'd be nice to have some kind of visual representation of what I imagined Freddy's bar looked like, from the outside at least, so I looked up some pictures! (Aka I'm procrastinating. My bad.)
So the place itself was an abandoned commercial building that was previously a bar that went bankrupt, so Freddy got it for a killer price. It's three stories and basically has the look of the building below. Not decrepit or run-down, but not super fancy.
Only the first floor is a club, the second floor is storage and office space (Freddy has an office where he can do all his boring paperwork and actual business stuff), and the very top floor is a shared living space where he lives with a few roommates.
The entrance is down a set of stairs rather than the door being on surface level, so the building is built partly into the ground. It's kind of like the entrance to the Speakeasy from Fantastic Beasts but imagine it wider and with a set of double doors.
That's what it looks like from the exterior at least, and writing all that just helped me a ton. This next part of the fic is going to be pretty detail heavy so I may have to put a pin in it until tomorrow cuz it's almost eleven lmfao.

I'm at the point in this chapter where I'm feeling uncomfortably self-conscious about how the flow is going, so I have to bite my tongue and struggle not to go all the way back to the beginning of the chapter to edit before I'm done cuz that ALWAYS ends up taking precious time away from my actual writing time. There's a middle scene in the chapter between point A and point B that I'm not 100% happy with, but I'm going to try not to think about it too much 😵💫

Does james or teddy like reading? Specifically anything fiction?
Oh abso-fucking-lutely.
I think Teddy reads just about everything, but his favorites are crime, horror, and fantasy (though if you give him a good historical fiction he'll never put it down. Three Musketeers? Fuck yeah 👌). He also likes sci-fi. In TBOTS Teddy ends up being a novelist, so he's extremely well read. He'll even finish books he doesn't like strictly so he can target what he didn't like about the book in order to avoid adding it to his own stories.
James is a bit pickier with his books, I think, and doesn't read as much as Teddy because I headcanon him getting overly attached to the books he reads and that can be emotionally exhausting (he is so me). He'll reread a lot of books. He's more interested in non-fiction or educational texts like potion books, or even true crime. Like he read Where the Red Fern Grows once and cried over it for a week straight (again he is so me).

Anon, I'm finding a way to include Luna just for you. You deserve it 🥺❤️ (and also Rolf, but since we know so little about him, his personality is mostly built on my headcanons, I hope that's cool 👏).
