Christina asked Sebastien de Castell:

Thank you for responding. I look forward to what comes next! I think it will be exciting, don't you? The guys seem to attract trouble. Just make sure they don't get fat and grow nose hair. 🤔 p.s. Do they surprise you ever or do you always know what's going on? Christina

Sebastien de Castell It's not that the characters surprise me so much as the dramatic situation in which they find themselves causes me to rethink how those characters would react. For example, there's a moment in Tyrant's Throne when Trin has come to see Falcio in prison and I anticipated a lot of goading and villainous talk, but as I wrote the scene, I found there was a much more emotionally compelling way for that scene to play out that was still very much Trin being Trin, yet showing a different side of herself than Falcio had seen before, thus forcing him to see the human being underneath. The series is full of those moments, and they tend to be my favourites.
