Summary
Rewrite of Celeste getting poisoned!
You do not need to read my lightlark worldbuilding page to read this, but the very important cliffnotes from that are that
-no one is immortal in this universe
-the war with Nightshade happened post the curses, while Grimms mother was ruler (I've named her queen Vanna and her existence contradicts cannon). It only ended a handful of years ago.
-The war with Nightshade was mostly against starling and moonling for their territory
-I... don't know the details of Grimm and Isla's relationship in this universe but I think it's a lot more hostile bc of what he and his mother did to Cel's realm. It hasn't turned romantic, at least not on Isla's end, but she's sympathetic to him in ways she feels really guilty about.Title is from Champagne Problems by Taylor Swift because Aster talks about that being the theme song for Lightlark in her mind so I couldn't resist

Summary
The ghost possession scene was one of the most egregiously ruined ones in Lightlark. It's SUCH a good concept, the idea of a ghost wanting to possess a living person, just for a short timeframe, to experience life again- and the book made it all about Isla being hot and the ghost wanting to possess a hot girl.
I'm framing my rewrite of it as a little silly; it does devolve into Isla and Oro fighting because they each want to be the one possessed, but I'm also trying to get out some good Isla, Oro, and Innil (that's what I'm naming the ghost) characterization.
Tw for mild gore and I think that's it?
Title is from Broken Crown by Mumford & Sons. -

Summary
Remember that one page when Isla considered that Ella might be evil and working against her?
I think Ella can pull off being an interesting and surprisingly morally complex antagonist more than Aurora can, so ... here we have it! Genuinely I like Ella a lot, witness her greatness <3Title and Chapter titles will be from Bad Guy by Set It Off
