Author commentary

Veronica: Ooh, here’s a long one! I feel like this chapter started a trend where chapters got longer and longer and more and more serious. Though honestly, this one’s a fun ride!

The city (that is totally NOT New York I swear) was named after a colour! Or was it come sorta coffee.. something like that. Either way, it needed to not be named after an actual location.

Rickter is the original place Sandy went to.. this is pre-BCB canon LORE. And I guess because Rickter is a made-up name, not-New York had to be given a made-up name as well! See, Sandy changes everything.. including writing choices.

Oliver: Living in IRL Maraschino has given us some perspective as to good-natured but annoying obscure parades that clog things up! Sometimes you just wanna cross fifth avenue but some jerks need are celebrating something important to them… oh, it’s terrible!
