Summary
Because if you want it to be, dancing can be well gay.
Simon and Baz spend several chapters attempting to have a dance together and of course their world comes entirely too close to ending before they succeed, because this is SnowBaz and it’s supposed to be dramatic. Featuring a Simon Snow who has no idea what Drag Race is (when would he have seen it) and a Tyrannus Basilton Pitch who knows but has bigger things to worry about, like surviving this fic.Expect angst, fluff, hurt/comfort, hurt/no comfort, platonic queerness, dance trivia, and frequent edits. This idea came to me days ago but I wrote the last chapter first before I figured out that I want to tell the story backwards.

Summary
UNDER REVISION
Bal finally realizes that he’s been betrayed twice: once by the Institute, and again by Nimona. Nimona had deceived him, taken the form of the Director to made him think that he couldn’t go back to the Institute, made them look evil. She’d become his friend— Ballister was sure that was real. But, at the same time, he blamed himself. He shouldn’t feel so surprised. Nimona threw people around like dolls, crashed through buildings, frightened and displaced innocent people— why hadn’t Ballister thought to question the story before? She’d made him distrust Ambrosius— taken Ballister away from him, even. But… hadn’t Nimona needed him more, anyway?Author’s Note: Nimona isn’t a nice, neat, conventional “Good Guy”. But the movie kind of leaves out the nuance of her character, misses out on that part of the original story that might be saying “Good and Bad is a false dichotomy.” Nimona isn’t the good guy, Nimona is a monster girl. I want to talk about what that means to me.
I feel like “Enjoy!” Is not the right thing to say. Read safely!
