I need to ask if at any point you guys said anything about tsgel not having cheating in the plot for fools that are mismatched in their pairings? Cause i could swear i saw it somewhere, but now i can't find anymore so i might just be hallucinating
it's in the a/n of chapter 2!

is tsgel going to take place over a long period of time (in story)? or is time going to continue to progress per chapter at about the same rate throughout?
the fic will cover a little over a year's worth of time. there will be timeskips, nothing too severe, a week or two here and there.

In tsgel is the backstory of how hyunjin reached his current position despite his lack of belief going to be explored?
possibly, it's not super relevant to events and we're trying to avoid dumping in large swathes of flashbacks 😭 so a lot of stuff is just getting put in with bits and pieces
the gist is there's a test that needs to be passed to become royal inyska, and hyunjin passed it

can you talk/explain more about the inspirations for the fashion/clothing of tsgel? what are the standards of dress for betas and how do those differ from alphas?
the fashion inspo is from me at age 10 watching the star wars prequels and wanting every outfit padme wore. it all branched out from there.
tbh betas and alphas dress very similarly. the main fashion tick for alphas is they have long hair that is always worn up/pulled back in some fashion. betas though can and often do have shorter hair.

Idk if this is a stupid question or not 🙈, maybe it’s been asked before but do you and rara work on different POV’s like are there specific Skz povs you do and she does the other ones or do you plan on writing different scenes as a whole, also is there someones POV you particularly like to write?
we do get asked this a lot LOL but i understand the curiosity.
there's no hard and set way we do things. sometimes in a chapter we'll claim which scenes we want to write and then just whoever gets to the others first does them. sometimes i cant write a beginning or an end of a scene so she does it, or vice versa. sometimes one of us writes out the dialogue and the other person actually fills it in. it's really just. the chapter needs doing so we write it in whatever configuration is needed to get it done.
rn, i really enjoy being in jisung's pov for tsgel when he is in a good mood LOL he's fun

what, in your opinion, is the core detail of arirang as a ship?
minho's soft adoration and jeongin's exasperated fondness. jeongin being prone to cynicism while minho is always so gently encouraging, patient, never allowing jeongin to wallow, and how that really has such an obvious and profound effect on jeongin. minho who can be so no-nonsense, always the teaser, and often the scary hyung, but who absolutely loves to be teased or snarked at by jeongin. and then jeongin who tends to shy away from being babied but he allows and even seems to want it from minho.
basically that old clip where jeongin steals a bit of food off minho's plate, and minho turns to glare at him, and jeongin stutters and his expression turns nervous and unsure, and he slowly puts the food back. and then minho breaks and his face splits into a wide smile because he cant keep up the act anymore, and he pats jeongin's head and lets him have the food. that power dynamic..... where minho seems so scary but he's a huge softie for jeongin.... it's the good shit.

what is your writing process for long fics?
generally we go brainstorming -> outlining -> writing. for a fic like tboyl which was relatively contained and didn't have a lot of plot, really, we got to the writing stage pretty fast, because we could kind of make calls and plans as we went, a little. but tsgel has so much lore, so many characters, and so much going on, that we were brainstorming and outlining for like. 6 months. before we started actually writing.

Because of the fact that you said Minho is the most jealous in tsgel, I’m REALLY curious as to see how Minho’s pov grows and how the way he thinks and feels about Jeongin changes in comparison to right now! Anything you can say about that? 👀
all i can say is it makes minho into a loser of the highest order. he was supposed to be a charming and cocky prince character and then actually writing it, his feelings turn him into a fckn dork

how long has hyunjin been the royal inyska at the start of the story?
about two years

will it be pretty far along into tsgel before the whole group meets? are hyunsung not going to interact with the rest of the group much throughout the whole story?
hyunjin peripherally knows the royals, but he really only is friends with felix, and then later, jeongin, so those are the two jisung has the most exposure to, at least within the timeline of the fic. they both... are tied to certain.... happenings........ but yes largely they're a little isolated

Hi!! I am absolutely obsessed with TSGEL and the world building is everything I could ever want 🥹 I was wondering if it would be possible to upload the image of Jeongin in the background of the summary? It looks gorgeous and I’d love to see it without the words so I can fully admire him in Selene I’s traditional clothes! Anyways thank you for this amazing story, I can’t wait for chapter 5 🥰🫶
unfortunately i don't have it saved without the words :') i will need to somewhat remake it, and intend to do so eventually. i need to make an entire tsgel visuals thread tbh.

Hi ! Just finished tboyl and what a ride <3 I saw that you started another fic, does that mean that the hyunsung chronicle (wich I SO want to read, like I'm in love with their characters) will wait until you finish this fic first ? Or have you started writing it on the side and intend to post it at the same time ? Thank you !
the hyunsung chronicles wont be worked on until the tboyl epilogue is done, which is being picked at amidst writing tsgel. it will be posted whenever it is finished.
