    Bookmarker's Notes

    This was so well done. I love that the characterization is both excellent and includes laughing at itself - and the characters laughing at themselves and each other without reducing anyone to one note. I love the concept that drives the plot and find that what happens to the people sucked into it, when all the right ingredients are thrown together, seems like the only reasonable outcome. I love the random tastes of nerdery that indicate integration of the author's own nerdery and/or research. And I love how even it all is - a thing that I'm not sure is meant to arise from my own writing, but which is so good in this rom-com-ish genre when it's well done. And this truly is.

    Folks who are mad at me for not yet writing a sequel to Inconspicuous are likely to enjoy this story as well - I only ask that you remember to come back around and check in as I work on leveling up once this has blown me out of the water.

    Summary

    The Lanes never sleep.

    The sunken streets may lie beneath Piltover’s heavy shadow, and it's faults are numerous and deadly, but no one can claim that the Undercity is boring.

    There is always colour to be found, if you know where to look.

    It’s something you pride yourself on – the ability to see what others can’t. Some mistake it for simple optimism. But you know it’s more than just that. It’s the thing that’s kept you alive this long, in more ways than one. You've always been happy to go wherever life has taken you, and you're a big believer in gut instinct.

    But you never expected to end up working as a bartender at The Last Drop – having been scouted by a blue haired girl who wouldn't take no for an answer.

    Neither did you expect to find yourself landed with the terrifying task of ensuring Silco's personal drinks cart is kept well stocked.

    And you certainly never expected to find yourself inadvertently become the weekly drinking partner of the Eye of Zaun himself.

    Summary

    An accident only you know about. A dead body you had to hide in the night. You are expecting every person within your village to be rapid with rage, searching for a culprit to put the blame. You know it would only be a matter of time before you would be hanged, or worse, burnt at the stake. Strangely, though, everyone behaves as if nothing is wrong.

    And then you see why.
