hello, I'm florrie

I'm a writer and software dev by day. You might also know me by Lilou Clary but this is a more personal account 😊

I'll be here for pretty things, writing, keeping up with friends

lovely art by @croverfield.bsky.social 🤍

Looking back on this year I am so grateful. My relationship with writing has been tumultuous for years. When I first started trying to write again at the beginning of the year, I was struggling with 500 words at a time. Now I'm consistently writing 2500+ a day. Writing is fun again ;-; 💕

In Deli's defense, this was Clover's fault this time. Not only was her skirt so short that they could built a monument to the exposed skin of her thighs, but it hiked up further when she deposited herself in their lap. Truly, they were studying the stupid material that Lilou and Conrad insisted was so vital to their education. But Clover was a needy thing who took personal offense to their mismatched eyes roving over the dusty pages of a book and not her. She whined, she pouted, until finally she pushed her way between the chair and the desk. Honestly, were they supposed to not sink their fingers into her thighs? Deli would like to meet the individual with that kind of will power.

Welcome to the main conflict of the book! Does finders keepers apply to planets?

#WIPSnips #WriteSky
This was, she supposed, somewhat of an important event. And Gloria would prefer not to rely on something as fickle as memory with all of its clumsy gaps and attempts to pad them. One of her notebooks was still lying in arms' reach on the couch, so she pulled it into her lap, flipping to a random section free from ink, and began to write out a quick minutes outline so that she could at least be prepared to memorialize this conversation either for history or even just the next day when it didn't feel quite real. "Oh," Emeric blinked innocuously, "I am the highest ranking individual from our group. But there seems to be a misunderstanding, we are not native to this planet." Not native to this planet. Before, she had been in a mode of note taking where she would record what she was hearing without truly processing it. She stared at the words on the page then looked up at Emeric with wide eyes, feeling her brows then knitting together. "What? What do you mean?" He looked at her with a slight tilt of his chin, as though it was her hearing that was at fault here. "Exactly what I said. We arrived on this planet approximately twenty days before you did." Out of all the spanning timelines in the galaxy, they had arrived here. In this insignificant point in the cosmos, at the same time as another group of aliens, time and space overlapping in what had to be an astronomically low chance. The news that there was intelligent life on this planet alone was a lot to digest, but this revelation was a feast compared to the small morsel they had consumed before. With this brought other details that would rip apart their understanding. Where and what their home planet was like—and how did they get here?

A scene from one of the last chapters :) an olive branch can be a meticulously formatted document.

#WIPSnips #WriteSky
"This is for you," he said, and pushed a neat stack of paper into her hands, "I managed to get you everything that you asked for. Everything is detailed in the preliminary agreement document." It was a thick stack of paper. And to her knowledge, Saturniians did not have paper like this, especially aboard their transport vessel. Which meant that Emeric had to go out of his way to not only translate the document into English, but to then find a way to print it out on her ship. Carefully, she began flipping through the pages. There were highlighted sections, the waver to the bright neon lines having been done by hand. And color coded. Little plastic tabs matching the highlighted colors peeking out from the edge of the document. She had no idea how he managed to do it, but here it was. It was tailor made for her. "Did my leads help you?" She asked quietly, trying to find a single fault with the formatting, as if that could justify holding onto her disdain if she could just find one misplaced comma or misaligned header. Emeric chuckled. "Clarine embezzled your office supplies at my request. But otherwise, no. I think I know you well enough by now to know some of your preferences." Gloria finally met his eyes at that, her chest tightening. "I guess you do. So, it was that easy then? Once I blackmailed your entire planet?" She said with a sardonic smile. His inhale held an unspoken tension that he released slowly through his flat nose, before he distracting himself with the way the light refracted off the water. "I would not say it was easy," he said slowly, "And there is a condition that you may not like."

#Smutcember 5:

So I LOVE writing banter, flirting, teasing, just characters talking to each other. My first edit pass I usually have to cut big swaths of conversation where I got carried away having a good time. But what stays often contributes significantly to building chemistry. (1/3)

#Smutcember, it's time to talk about our work! To start off:

How do you build chemistry between your characters? You can speak in general terms or give specific examples, whichever you prefer.

Their first kiss is such a mess. She is only kissing him for the mission okay 🫥 definitely.

#Smutcember #WriteSky
"Oh," Emeric laughed, resting one hand on the chair behind her, "I think we both know that is not true. This pull is mutual. I am not foolish nor strong enough to act as though I am blind to it." Her breath felt shallow. Her heartbeat pounded in her ears so loudly that she could feel her pulse in her fingertips. A torrent of emotion tore through her, a riptide of wanting that she had built sandcastle poor defenses against. Especially when he had captured her gaze and was relentless in keeping it. And once again he was touching her and once again she was letting him because she was so weak to it with her touch starved desire—his fingers fluttered against her hip, waiting for her to take her turn. "What if you're wrong?" She asked, her voice a murmur. "I am not." He was not. Gloria's resolve melted to the heat of him. It wasn't romantic—it wasn't even gentle. It was the cork popping under pressure. She pulled him down, her nails none too considerate on the skin of his nape, at the same time that she strained on her tiptoes. They collided as she yanked him down, crushing her lips to his. That must have been enough to spur him past whatever holds he had placed on himself, because Emeric was pulling her in by her waist and kissing her back as though he had been parched before her dam crumbled. His lips were thin, but warm and eager. Dull pain melded with the pressure, mostly on her part; she kissed him like she was trying to agitate him into combat. Emeric pulled back to catch his breath, only to spend it on a whisper. "Finally," he said, so low, so fulfilled. His lips brushed hers again, more tenderly this time, before she pulled him back into her intensity.

Her mouth parted. Then her teeth landed on her bottom lip, trapping the defensive response before it could meet the air and take shape. She had flung enough careless barbs at Selene. Who had never handled them with anything but utmost grace. Her stomach wrenched. Gloria felt like more an ant than a person, squirming under Selene's gaze as though under a magnifying glass. But if she wanted to be a person, she needed to shed these layers of falsehoods and omissions. She had to rip off all that grime that had hooked onto her skin—that she had cowardly justified as armor. And it hurt to tear down her defenses, her chest constricting. But it was time to expose those little crevices of her heart she had hidden away to the light. "Because I thought I could handle it myself." Gloria's words lacked the fire that would normally lash out at her opponents as a thoughtless shield. Selene was not her enemy. "If it went south, I didn't want to drag anyone else down with me."

you never realize how bad writers are at estimating scale until you go maybe I should figure out what that arbitrary number actually feels/looks like. like heating up water to estimate alien body temperature and going OH THAT'S WHAT 120F FEELS LIKE. NOPE.

This is something about "AI" that I have a hard time putting into words, but creators just love the WORK. It's just fun. Even when it's hard. All the thinking, and all the detail work, and all the struggle, it makes the things we make, I don't know... have weight and value for us.

If the writer’s eyes light up when asked, “why did the character do that?” then it’s real.
