I felt like I had to reaffirm now important Brie and Graham are to each other? They’ve known each other for half their lives, and Brie wants Graham to be happy!

8 147

She’s reaching for her family, but what’s within reach is the necklace and Graham—and though she cares about Graham a lot, he’s not a substitute, just like how the necklace isn’t a substitute either

8 128

I saw a lot of people upset at Graham for not confessing to Lucy here, but she’s very much not in a good state for having more big feelings thrown at her??

Graham centering Lucy’s feelings and not his own was meant to be the proof of how much he cares about her

Graham has gone from a person who did not want to see his old coworkers, and felt like an imposter among them, to this! He’s farther along his character arc than Lucy, which I know can be frustrating

3 130

I wanted to emphasize that the people Lucy can best commiserate with isn’t Graham—the two of them being in love won’t fix Lucy’s grief

Bartlett and Colby are the ones who most understand what she’s going through

9 166

Lucy and Graham have both experienced an interrelated loss, but at this moment, Lucy realizes it’s not the same loss

Graham wants to talk to the other chefs who also lost Bartlett; Lucy wants to talk to someone who also lost Lynn, or their family

4 127

I still feel weird that I didn’t actually show that much of Bartlett mentoring Graham??

Their relationship is supposed to be a profound mentor-student relationship, but... I kind of only show peeks of it, and the effect of Bartlett’s disappearance

Lucy began to realize her feelings (or at least mistake it as heartburn) at the beginning of the arc, but the suggestions of romance trailed off as the drama took over

So I was really worried that Jacobi suggesting that Graham is in love felt too sudden...

Just like Graham isn’t impartial when it comes to Lucy, I wanted to show that Kirby isn’t impartial when it comes to Jacobi

Kirby wants to help him!! Jacobi has people on his side!!!

5 153

Lucy unconsciously realized it in the holiday arc, but now fully realizes that Graham’s cooking has become precious to her!

And it helps allay Graham’s insecurities that he’ll never be as good a chef as he was at Dimanche—it doesn’t matter, Lucy likes his food now

Eggs weren’t a theme I had planned from the start, but I’m glad they became a theme for Lucy and Graham!

5 140

Originally, Graham was supposed to make banh xeo (a Vietnamese dish to represent how Madeleine is on his side)—but while researching I found that Shokugeki no Soma had done it, and after being told the rose apple tart was also in SnS, I didn’t want to overlap again

1 127

No one in real life talks like this, Graham!! But an important theme, nonetheless

8 141

(REPOST BC I HAD TO REPHRASE THIS TWEET) I know people wanted Graham to punch Jacobi

But Graham is one of the characters least likely to punch another person, he’s soft and sad

(The characters least likely to punch someone are 1. the dogs 2. Olive and 3. Graham)

7 167

I feel like I stick Graham with the “nobody in real life talks like this” lines, but someone had to say it

10 145

I purposefully gave Lynn a similar pantsuit + bag to when Lucy met Graham! I wanted to draw a strong association between Lucy and Lynn

(I don’t expect readers to notice it, but more like “I can see where Lucy gets her sense of dress from!”)

2 143

Oof this is me still trying to figure out Jacobi’s motivations—like, is he still using Lucy as a way to Graham?? That’s how the questions seem!
