The Proposal (page 11)

… Song’s in a bad place right now and Mansa’s method is identify the worst possible scenario and work from there 😅
(Of course, he’s right though… Song IS making money through worst possible scenario.)
He’s definitely thinking song is doing something illegal

I remember that at the end of Courtesan, Song tells Mansa about his ex boyfriend who forced him to run hexes for him. I don't know how long ago that is, on this timeline, but - when you say Mansa is suspicious, could he be thinking that Song is doing illegal things like this, again? Or does he really believe he is simply doing shows - on his own?

Ohhhhhh shoot. I'm both loving and dreading this, this chapter of their story was painful enough the first time but now we're going into it with a much better understanding of the entire context. Oh dear.

Aw shit, with all the cute fluff from Calf Love and Nerve I had called completely forgotten about Song's "shows" 😭😭😭😭 Fuck, their situation is so messed up at the moment, now it's really easy to understand why the proposal went the way it did💔

Hey, what’s the best way to read these in chronological order?

Every two weeks or so!

Thomas wouldn’t be surprised, Etty would be very hurt since Elon was what drove them apart the first time

Mansa is suspicious and Etty /knows/

That wiggly speech bubble line… 😬 Mansa definitely suspects even if he doesn’t want to vocalize it. How often does Song do these “shows”?

What would Etty or Thomas think about what Song has actually been up to?

Thomas and Etty friendship forever! And auughhh...does Mansa even suspect what Song is really up to? (does Etty?)

Mansa's process and mine are extremely similar 😬

Omg that’s adorable 🥹 I feel like Song would be an amazing teacher! I’m sure Song can fulfill that dream. And Mansa of course will help him.

Absolutely! In the main story they’ll pretty much be inseparable
Whiteley Foster
2022-05-27 11:34:46 +0000 UTC
In the main story absolutely!
(Spoilers: Song wants to be a teacher, showing little infernals how to use their magic 💕)

Are we gonna get into what they learned about themselves during the time they were apart?

Will we see more about Thomas and Etty? I really like them together, romantically or not.

Absolutely correct! They’ve been together since they were basically children. They’ve had no time to be adults independently of each other’s wants and needs. It’s a little heartbreaking but they need a moment on their own to learn what they want personally!

It’s sweet that Song and Mansa care so much about each other’s well being. But I feel like they sometimes forget to think of themselves.

bet "on edge" doesn't even begin to describe how he really feels, such a messed up situation they find themselves in... 😬

Poor Mansa, poor Song.
And as much of a dick as he’s being/about to be that little sliver of Thomas sticking up for his good friend Etty is making me smile

Mansa and I are exactly alike.
