Also I love Michiru being all “uh no sorry, I’m not new money” lmao

Ahaha I’m glad you liked that line, it was born out of my attempt to not overthink the situation (since that’s why I didn’t write this when I first had the idea) and then a lot of Michiru’s backstory came to me from it. And also it’s one of those lines I write that I hope people find funny because they amuse ME.

I LOVE B&B SO MUCH this is great, I love how you changed the story to fit around them and make it work and make sense

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! B&B is really fun to play with, and it works really well for HaruMichi, I think, despite the ways in which they’re very different from most portrayals of Belle/Beauty and the Beast, respectively.

Also I just really like thinking about how fairytales can interact with the modern world. I remember some author saying once that no one can get lost anymore unless you write their cell phone dying, and so I laughed writing the first bit. Once upon a time, a cell phone died.
