mosylu | favourite line/scene you wrote this year?

Hard one! But I think I liked best the extended New Year’s Day scene in Living for Today. I really wanted to expand some on the family that Cisco was given in canon. I hoped to show that even though he has beef with his parents, he still loves them, in the complicated way that you love family. I also wanted him to have extended family that he is close to, that have written some of his identity, and that would remember him after he’s gone. Plus it was a chance to write down the kind of convivial, nosy, crowded, affectionate special occasions that the Latinx side of my family is prone to.

I had to double-check some of the more colloquial Spanish with native speakers, because I didn’t grow up fluent, but overall I’m pretty proud of it.
