Lol I actually thought I'd be able to skip an episode or two in S4 only to find out that's just so not the case, cos now I have Sam and OTHER SPOILERY THINGS there's literally no way to avoid certain bits of plot lmao/smaller things I'm adding in that'll hopefully be fun
          	
          	(I'm in peak TVDS8/TOS4 planning more atm and it's so torn between bittersweet ahhh oh my god we're actually at the last two TO seasons, and kinda exciting cos there's stuff people are gonna love, but some stuff that might stress others out majorly mwhahaha)

Hiiii, i just wanted to say i literally can’t watch the vampire diaries anymore lol, every time i have tried to rewatch I can’t help but feel like i miss MJ. I can’t even fathom how her and the other OCs you’ve made aren’t canon, like Ryan and Sam(as well as MJ) are some of my favorite characters and the fact that they just aren’t in the shows actually hurts my soul a little. The way you’ve written about the Floare too has just been amazing, and you’ve made everything actually make sense like the magic is explained so well. I’ve reread the books so many times and am still noticing little details I didn’t notice at first, like you have so many hidden meanings and little details it’s actually insane. The fact that you do all this while at Uni as well deserves a round of applause, I don’t think anyone could have written something like this as well as you have while going to school full time. I’m so grateful you took the time to write this masterpiece!!! You have literally ruined the vampire diaries for me,e in the best way possible and I just wanted to thank you for that!! Forever your biggest fan!!!<3333

once again waiting for Freya to just not be the worst character in TO
          
          (I'm halfway through my TOS4 speed watch while outlining the plot) - I swear I didn't hate her when I started the story, Tik Tok edits had me so down with how cool she was but every time I actually listen to a word she says or think for more than two seconds about something she does it just makes her so unbearable ahhhhh
          
          I hate not liking her cos I kept promising people we'll eventually get to a MJ - Freya friendship and to be near the end of S4 and have her still spouting nonsense I'm not sure imma be able to follow through on that eek

@Chasing-Lightning finally someone who shares my opinion. Everyone for seem reason seem so bias when it comes to her but at the same time antagonise both Marcel and davina for standing up against the mikaelsons despite both having also helped them also. It get on my fucking nerves.
            
            I don't like freya for multiple reasons.

Hii, I absolutely love reading your books. It just satisfies my curiosity about the show (because of my excessive overthinking)with MJ calling everyone out and figuring stuff out. Like I wish MJs character should've been included in the show! I've always been kind of a silent reader as I'm new and have extremely strict parents but your books are getting me out of that phase. Sorry for the ramble, but my question is that how do you write the spells for MJ other than the ones mentioned in TVDU??!! this has been clawing at my brain ever since she used Huô instead of incendia!!!! I tried to look it up and translate it but I just can't figure out how you come up with them!! Anyway, you're amazing Bea, lots of love<333

Chasing-Lightning

@Escaping-_-_-Reality Hi, so I built the Floare as a species around specific things knowing they were going to be heavily international non-Latin witch groups that then shaped MJ's magic - it basically boils down to looking up key phrases or terms in whichever language I've decided specialised that area of magic was developed in etc, then molded with a few other languages for longer spells to show how the spells moved between different places and was passed verbally between cultures

@Chasing-Lightning just same bea, same. can’t really explain what is going on in my life right now, but i truly clicked with mj from your story  in a way, it compliments you as a writer, but in a way that the things are for me, it just.. sucks. just the way people around her treat her. i mean not listening to her when in 99% situations she is right and shit happens because of no one listening to her and then apologising for that and doing fucking nothing to be better and repeating the cycle again. and leaving her to deal with the mess they created without thinking how it can affect her. or feeling like little mj, that is alone and without a place she can call home. complicated relationships with your family. uh, life just sucks sometimes and i am so glad i found your story, because her story just so strongly reminds me of my life that i just want to hug her and cry on her shoulder. but in a way her story just saved me and helped me get through my mess in the life, like i really felt i was not alone in that. it was me rambling about my crazy couple of months, but i am just so glad i found your story at the right time, that i wanted to thank you for all of that, hoping it would just lighten your mood and make that crazy time of yours a little bit better 
            also, i would like to ask you a bit of a personal question, but I have no idea if wattpad has private chats?? lol, i only know how to read here

@Your_worst_Phobias05 see...the thing is...We've got one more Ryos chapter where him being about it part of the S3 story, but I do like to remind people every now and again...
            in the first every draft outline for this entire story, he wasn't gonna be in TVDS4, he was gonna be in TO...so...this might be the end of him in S3, but I'd keep your eyes out, because his story is far from over...

I love how you write Vincent Griffith. I always loved him in the series but omg you make him talk, act and look as cool as I thought he was. The way you write characters of color heals me real good. And I love how everyone’s vocab is just better from being in MJ’s universe (they talk like people not people playing other people?lol). 

Chasing-Lightning

@DesariX thank you <3 I was so worried about recent chapter reveals potentially ruining him for some people, but he he, he's still one of my faves and he does care for MJ a lot nowadays
            
            And thank you! I do really try , personally I think B2 gets a bit too OTT with some lines (cos there's so much mental health chat), but I still like to think I'm quite decent at giving characters a certain tone and sticking to it <3 and it's nice to see people enjoying that
