i’m all the way back in stella glow au mode, that’s for sure. thinking about writing the prologue as a proper chapter, except that the problem with writing something like this rather than showing is that i’d have to describe a lot of balthazar’s expressions and tones of voice in a way that make it really obvious that Something Is Not What It Seems (as opposed to visual, where the reader could interpret faces etc for themselves)

but like on the other hand, no one would ever read anything of mine and assume balthazar was the Real Villain of the piece anyways, so like. who cares
