hey guys! I'm low on rent for this month by 150 dollars so I just wanted to remind you that my commissions are open! or you could also donate to my paypal: milomelonsbusiness@gmail.com and I would really appreciate it ! :,) thanks guys!
hello guys!! this original post is from a long time ago but it has happened again... I'm low by 200 dollars so any donation would really be amazing 😭
It's here! It's finally here (well, the first chapter, anyway)! And on Christmas Eve, like I wanted! I don't have a fancy banner or anything...mostly because I don't know how to make those OTL.
Consider this my Christmas gift to the Carry On fandom. There are so many gushy words I could type right now, but I am quite tired. As promised in the author's note, there is a bigger post coming about the background of writing this fic. That will have to wait.
Once again, a massive thank you to @carryonsimoncarryonbaz for being my beta and main cheerleader for this whole project. I can't thank you enough.

Micah breaking up with Penny was genuinely one of the best things to happen to Penny. Not just because it freed her up to meet and be with Shepard (though that's definitely a perk), but because it was a wake-up call for Penny and the ways she treats people.
I wouldn't broadly label the ways Penny treats people as bad, but they can be read as inconsiderate. She famously says that she doesn't have time for too many people in her life, which can lead her to cut off people who might otherwise be interested in getting to know her. She is invested in Simon and his adventures to the point of exclusion throughout Carry On, something implied to have been true since they met in first year. She tends to steamroll rather than listening first to others' opinions and desires (something she does to Simon, the person she cares most about). Her sense of other people's boundaries is maybe...less developed. And, when it comes to Micah, she keeps him at a geographic and emotional distance.
The evidence is mounting for autistic Penny Bunce.
Micah calls Penny out for all of this when she pops up without warning at his house, expecting him to be a.) still in a relationship with her, and b.) happy to see her. He is neither of those things.
Now, we only have Micah's word that he told Penny multiple times that their relationship was over. We don't know how subtle or forthright he was every time he brought up the topic. Penny is blunt by nature, and she responds best to direct, clear communication. It's part of why she gets along with Simon so well - he's equally blunt.
At any rate, Micah breaking up with Penny made her change her own behaviors. It's been a hot minute since I read Any Way the Wind Blows, but I seem to remember Penny checking in with Simon more than a few times while they were physically separated. It's also important to note that Penny isn't immediately rushing into Simon's business while she's working with Shepard on his own mystery. She's concerned about her best friend, but she respects the fact that they're each doing their own thing and need the space from each other.
I don't have some grand sweeping conclusion to this, only that I think the breakup was an excellent choice to develop Penny, who otherwise might have remained a fairly static character. She was well-established in Carry On, but she has become well-developed.

Summary: After a hard week being Watford's new goatherd, Agatha finds some time to unwind with her girlfriend. In a silly way, of course.
Agatha
We slip through the front gates of Watford just before they’re closed for the night. If I wanted to be a total rebel, there’s a weak point in the northern wall that will slide apart if you sing “Open Your Heart” at it (definitely not my spell), but that’s not a straight line from the village. Straight lines are best for me right now. And for Niamh, for that matter, though she’s doing a much better job of walking like a sober person than I am. Thank Morgana I have my staff with me.
Birthing season has been intense. Niamh warned me back in autumn that it would be like this, now that there is a proper goatherd (me) back in the picture. They’ll feel safe enough to have kids, she told me. What she didn’t tell me is that you rarely know if a doe is pregnant until she’s in labor. What she also didn’t tell me is that the kids tend to come all at once.
So for a solid week, I have been soaked up to my armpits in afterbirth as I catch little kids long enough to clear out their nostrils with a bulb and check them over before passing them back to their mums. Turns out goats are pretty much self-service when it comes to labor, unlike horses which seem to need all the help they can get. It is a bit unnerving when the doe decides she needs steady eye contact in order to get the job done, because I can never look in all three eyes at once.
Fifteen does. Twenty-one kids so far, including a set of triplets. I deserved a pint or two at the pub, so of course I had four.

@rainbowrowell will there be a snowbaz kiss in Snow for Christmas? 🙏🏼✨
(has it already been confirmed or did I dream about it?🤣)
Someone has a crush on the blue-eyed clumsy bartender.
Baz with a stubble because @martsonmars is right. Pearls, flowers and a pining Baz to indulge myself

I think that when Baz says : "orphans are always marked by destiny" I think that the Mage felt the same way, and always intended to abandon Simon, I also don't believe that Lucy died due to complications due to childbirth, or rather it was but i think its directly tied to the ritual Davy made her participate in and that he knew it would kill her, her giddy recollection of her time with him during her pregancy when he was so nice to her, it felt like pampering a human sacrifice and Lucy's description of her difficult gestational period with Simon was tied to her magic which started with the ritual.
The Mages relationship with Simon and Lucy is obviously messed up, he talks at them never to them, they are only meant to listen and obey. He isolated them both and left them completely dependant on him and his views "It's like I never got to know the World of Mages, because my mentor turned it upside down before I got there" Chapter 32 Wayward Son. When we hear Davy's POV in Carry On he's talking to Lucy and its disturbing to think that he can now idealize a mate who can only listen without speaking or disagree, if he had succeeded in killing Simon would he have done the same? Talked to his dead son who could no longer disobey him? "This isn't in the prophecies; there's nothing about headstrong children"-Chapter 10, Mage Carry On. The Mage also has very little regard for Simon's physical, mental or emotional safety: "I envy what he has with Bunce. They act like this is their tenth tour of duty together. It makes me realize that Simon had a whole life I didn't know about back in school. The Mage used him to fight whatever needed fighting-even when Simon was just a kid.(Simon was always just a kid.)" Baz Chapter 32 Wayward Son.
Simon is so traumatized by the Mage that when forced to confront the man's evil deeds he can't articulate his thoughts at all "The last time I saw someone cast a song-the only time I've seen someone cast a song-it was the Mage. That day. Over Ebb. Ebb...The Mage, he-" Simon Chaper 32 Wayward Son. And the entirety of Chapter 87 of AWTWB where Simon drops sentences, disassociates and just spirals.
There is hope for Simon though in the form of Jaime Salisbury: we don't see Simon and Jaime interact much but what we do see is promising. The thing is the male authority figures in Simon's life are serious, important and powerful. But Jaime is more relatable for Simon, hes fun (Led Zepplin, KFC), he's silly (leaving the family sword in the middle of tea), he's not super powerful, hes very kind (he was geniunely happy for Pippa) and he is exactly what Simon needs. He opens up to Simon right away and tells Simon more about Lucy than his own father ever did. When the Salisburys learn that Simon is theirs he's thrilled being the first to articulate it "Simon' Jaime says, 'don't you know how happy we are to find you? This is, like, the best news we've had in twenty years. We're your family!" Chapter 88 AWTWB He struggles with magic and school and he is still relatively young. Like Fiona to Baz, Simon now has a young and screwy family member to confide in. The other thing Jaime can offer is that as a little brother he can give Simon the best approximate out of anyone as to what kind of mother Lucy might have been.
