Crystal Springs Chapter 18: Market Day

Is FINALLY up for you all right here after THREE MONTHS. AH. Alright, so! What's new and exciting this time around??

🆕 in this chapter:

We meet Xander!

Winter and Jack chat has been tripled in size and spread about the chapter

Befana? BELSNICKLE? OTHER CHRISTMAS SPIRITS? It's more likely than you think. (free CS check)

(also free vibe check @ the series bc I am unamused with the LATEST NEWS ABOUT IT)

(AH)

Magibean social media

A reason for the Fates to be there/meddling lmao

Word count has gone from 5.6k (2014) to 7.9k (2017/18) to uh. 19k (2022) 😬😬😬

Enjoy!

And apologies for the delay. You can send your thanks to the following irl factors for it:

a sort of sudden death in the family leading to the most fight filled week i have EVER experienced

a very grief filled two months with a side of WHY ARE WE STILL YELLING IT'S NOT BRINGING GRANNY BACK

FUCKING COVID?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!? RUDE!

Bridal shower RIGHT AFTER covid recovery

And story wise, took SO LONG because of WINTER AND JACK BEING STUBBORN AND ALSO SHOWBOATY. By the time I got to the final scene, I was like. READY TO KICK THIS ONE TO THE CURB. Observe:

And I wasn't that far off with the final word total, lmao. ANYWAY. HOLY HELL. WHAT A CHAPTER. WHAT A CRAZY THREE MONTHS. PLEASE ENJOY!
