hello hello welcome to in the sky! gather around and listen, you lovely beatlemaniacs!
this book was inspired by the one and only lucy in the sky with diamonds song from the mind-blowing album sgt. pepper's lonely hearts club band.
don't get this story as a theory about the song but as a simple work of fiction and imagination. ( john already gave an explanation about this song in an interview, which is totally unrelated to this story )
as that being said, i do not own the beatles or their songs! lucy and other characters from the story are based off imaginary people, fictional characters i created. besides that, the beatles and the rest of the people stated in the characters list are real people!
lucy doesn't have a faceclaim, though she will be described in the story. feel free to imagine her as you wish.
i won't follow the timeline correctly because yeah-
this is a college au story and the glorious rock n roll 50s timeline. teddy boys incoming! ^o^
