Mindless Chatter

 

In your own space, Create something. It doesn’t have to just be the written word or a drawing. Creativity is much more inclusive. I enjoy making jewelry. Maybe you are into yarn/thread/fabric. Compose music? Create recipes? (Ooh this kinda reminded me, but I used to do some jewelry making too when I was younger and I had a lot of fun, I'd love to do that again!)

For this, I decided to post something I wrote as a wish fulfillment for jesseofthenorth , about a character being rescued after being out in the cold! <3 It's a little late for this challenge, but I'm glad I posted it tonight because we've had a huge snowstorm and about six inches of snow today, so I'm feeling very in the mood for this story!!

I don't know if you, Jesse, or any of my followers know about this fandom, but it's the show Turn: Washington's Spies! It's about a group of spies during the American Revolutionary War and is loosely based on the real-life Culper Ring. My favorite pairing (Anna Strong/Edmund Hewlett) is predictably tragic: she's a Patriot spy and he's a Redcoat officer... *cries* I'm sure you can guess how that turned out, but they were so so cute and soft together for a while there!!! Good old fashioned rivals/enemies-to-lovers :')

Some general info: They live in the town of Setauket, New York, and Hewlett lives in Whitehall, the house of the town magistrate, because he's the commander of the garrison there. He invites Anna to come stay there with him to protect her from another Redcoat who is creepy af and is also Hewlett's arch-nemesis throughout the show. Hewlett loves horses and astronomy and is a big nerd, and he and Anna have a really cute stargazing date in one episode. I hope that's enough of an intro to make you want to watch it lol, but I think that's all you really need to know for this story! It's just fluff and hurt/comfort!


( Sorry for the ramble, read the story below! )


I might post this to AO3 in a few days after I tweak it a little...!
