It's just so fun seeing their different personalities clash and then come together and end up meshing. I just love it!<br /><br />I know, right? Some of them just need to get on with it already.

There's nothing wrong with using the archives! That's why they're there after all. I've gone back and redone old BP posts myself.<br /><br />D'awww! I'm so glad you think so! ^_^ I do love my babies. I agree, I love those couples who have loved each other for years. It makes them officially getting together all the more satisfying.<br /><br />I know, right?? How could you go wrong with a dragon riding date?!<br /><br />Oh yay!!Christine Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859881278385314279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-67599976987762920412016-02-16T10:32:37.789-06:002016-02-16T10:32:37.789-06:00I knew how you felt about this month's BP! The...I knew how you felt about this month's BP! The only "romantic" couple I've written about recently (um, well, in the past year?) is the one I covered in last year's Valentines BP. :/ So I decided to visit the archives and interview a totally different character instead. (*blushes*)<br /><br />OK. Airen and Eyrth are. Absolutely. ADORABLE! It's so cute when two characters have been in love with each other for a long time, because it makes you want to root for them so much more. And the fact that the entire kingdom is also cheering for them to make it official... Awwwwwww. :) I also like how Airen is so protective of Eryth and how he's tried to help her "come out of her shell," so to speak.<br /><br />A dragon-riding date?? Airen, what more convincing do you need that ERYTH IS YOUR GIRL??? XD <br /><br />Here's my BP link, btw: http://saraletourneauwriter.com/2016/02/16/beautiful-people-vol-12/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620573044801438998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-61178431365160658032016-02-14T18:08:27.578-06:002016-02-14T18:08:27.578-06:00*giggles* THANK YOU!

So they're kind of special to me.<br /><br />Little Airen totally liked the squishy babies. XD<br /><br />It amuses me how many people in their story KNOWS they like each other. Evil nudging will definitely have to happen. Hehehe. We're so bad.<br /><br />Awww, that's so sweet! We should probably do more for Valentine's. I kind of keep forgetting today IS Valentine's... Heh. Maybe once (if?) I'm married it'll mean more to me? *shrugs*Christine Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859881278385314279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-49701986738127394742016-02-14T18:02:05.751-06:002016-02-14T18:02:05.751-06:00I'm so glad you liked it!

Yes, ...Thank you! I do love my oblivious babies. XD<br />Yes, she does! Having a dragon is the DREAM. I think everyone should have a dragon. *nods, nods*<br /><br />BP is just too much fun. I love these special editions, and this one was particularly fun because I may be a little obsessed with shipping fictional characters... *cough, cough*Christine Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15859881278385314279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-23005671048650778642016-02-14T07:48:04.592-06:002016-02-14T07:48:04.592-06:00OH MY WORD, THEY ARE PRECIOUS. (I'm with you, ...OH MY WORD, THEY ARE PRECIOUS. (I'm with you, though--I don't have all that many couples either.) Airen and Eryth are just perfect! They MUST become a thing by the time the series ends. They must. Or else I'll demand a sequel just for them.<br /><br />"Squishy baby." XD Their childhood sounds completely adorable, and it's so sweet how Airen discovers he likes making her laugh more than making her cry. *shipping so bad*<br /><br />And it's awesome how the entire kingdom wants them to be a couple, and they themselves are the only ones getting in the way with their insecurities. Oh dear, don't we authors love giving those little (or not so little) nudges? XD<br /><br />As for Valentine's Day, I do like it. It's not nearly as great as Christmas, of course, but my family likes to exchange cards, decorate the house a bit, and have a candlelit supper. :)Tracey Dyckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03445222618456673198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-69110692866532937002016-02-13T09:45:41.788-06:002016-02-13T09:45:41.788-06:00AHH, I loved this post.

Writing their person...Hehehe. I love it! Thank you!<br />Writing their personalities really is a blast. I have too much fun with the different dynamics. And I'm definitely giving them a push.

It does seem like it's way more for the benefit of stores than actual couples. But that's so sweet your dad brought each of you chocolates. ^_^<br /><br />I ADORE your Fantasy month idea.

They do need some work and maybe a little less cliches, but I do love them.<br /><br />I feel the same way. I haven't written a lot of it, and I've never been in a romantic relationship myself so the best I can do is study it in books and TV. XD<br />I love it when people twist stereotypes. That is just way too much fun! Especially when you put your characters in awkward situations. *grins* Ooh, now I'm curious about this third pair of yours.<br /><br />Yep, that's me. Valentine's just exists. I don't care much about it either way.<br /><br />I know, right?

THANK YOU!!!<br /><br />Well, the thought crossed my mind a time or two, but I'd really like to try to publish my stories one day instead of just making them public like that. Also most of my stories are first draft monsters that are not fit for mortal eyes. Eheh. But it encourages me so much knowing people really are interested in reading my stories.

Not Bryth. (I was just gushing so much over Airen and Eryth that I lost any vestige of sanity I actually possess. XD)<br /><br />FLYNNNNN!!! You obviously already know how I feel about him. Just the fact that Airen reminds me of Flynn makes him an automatic favorite of mine.<br /><br />Scrolling through the comments and checking other peoples' blogs, I've come to realize that a lot of people actually don't care for Valentine's Day. Which sort of surprised me, I guess? But, ya know, I am an odd person so the fact that I like it and other people don't shouldn't really surprise me...<br /><br />m a r y l i zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14505343613442203117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-82745844775618232912016-02-09T19:55:59.251-06:002016-02-09T19:55:59.251-06:00*beams* You sweet thing!
ACK. That makes me so ha...*beams* You sweet thing!<br /><br />ACK. That makes me so happy. I love it when other people like my charries too. (And, I'll admit, I also ship them so hard it's physically painful. I've been shipping them for 6 years now. Something needs to happen already!)<br /><br />They're a mess. XD Although Bryth is perfectly fine with spiders. She wasn't worried about the spider, she was worried about Eryth. They're best friends, and when someone hurts Eryth they usually find Bryth's fist in their face afterwards. Like the good friend she is. *nods seriously*<br /><br />If Airen ever died from anything other than old age, it wouldn't be in a big epic battle or anything. It'd probably be from a sugar coma. XD<br /><br />D'awww, you! <3<br /><br />AGH. Now it is my turn to gush because FLYNN!!!! Flynn is my most FAVORITE Disney guy. And, ya know, Airen IS a lot like Flynn. I've never even thought about that! :O<br /><br />You make a good point about Valentine's. Pink IS my favorite color. (Which you can probably guess by my blog design. XD) I do love all the Valentine's decorations. The pink and hearts and glitter. So very pretty! Maybe I like it more than I think I do. And fangirling over my favorite fictional couples is a blast. Of course, I do that no matter what time of year it is.

It was so ...*giggles uncontrollably* Your comment!<br /><br />It was so much fun doing them. It literally made me anxious for NaNo. o.o I probably shouldn't be thinking about that right now...<br />You probably haven't really seen them together because their only real parts together are in the first book which isn't fit for mortal eyes. Or any eyes. *I* cringe reading it. So...yeah. No. One of these days I'll rewrite it so people can read it. One day...<br /><br />I kind of think there were multiple incidents where he upset Eryth and Bryth got all over him. You do not mess with Eryth when Bryth is around. It always ends badly. XD<br /><br />Was I unintentionally witty? Lol! I wasn't joking. They WOULD die for each other, without any hesitation. That's a worrying thought sometimes. o.o<br /><br />Hehehe. He's always trying to act princely when he so isn't. XD<br /><br />*cackles some more* You know me, ruining characters' lives one book at a time.<br /><br />BUT SERIOUSLY. They need to live happily ever after! I mean, come on, people!<br /><br />THANK YOOOUUU!!! I'm the same way about other people doing BP. I just adore reading about people's characters. It's too fun!<br /><br />Yeah, that's me with the Valentine's thing. (Minus the chocolate.) I don't hate on it or anything, but I'm not all into it either. But you're right! It's the perfect time to buy you chocolate for your birthday. That's perfect! :D<br /><br />Oh my goodness gracious. He likes her because she's like sweets! *dead* I am going to HAVE to put that somewhere in the book. That is just too good!!!<br /><br />It actually is mentioned! :D It's near the beginning in the first book. Actually one of the first things we learn about Airen. That's how I know about it.

The...I don't know them but I already ship them! They sound so perfect for each other. The contrast betwwen their personalities and their dynamic must be fun to write but also to watch. Definitely give them some push so they are finally together because it would be shame if they wouldn't end up together :) Also, I love cocky male characters, they just add something fun and special to the mixture. <br />I have a couple in a story and they are not together yet, but I have shipped them since the moment I came up with the idea. I mean, they are perfect for each other. They bring the best in each other and the guy is the only one who can show the girl that loving is not a weakness. Oh, just thinking about them makes my heart melt. :) <br />Simonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08945518195711017325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139091376044743904.post-31207838306347601812016-02-09T10:24:42.075-06:002016-02-09T10:24:42.075-06:00So adorable!
