Welcome to the newest Fizz Hangout! Every Friday, you all can stop by the weekly Fizz Hangout post and ask questions (to us or to your fellow patrons), discuss recent bonus scenes and/or podcasts with each other, and catch up on all the goodies you might've missed!

HANGOUT QUESTION: we love seeing your response to questions about the Addictedverse, and it helps facilitate some awesome discussions! Each week, there'll be a new "hangout question" that you can answer in the comments, if you wish!

In spirit of Silver Sweet nearing, what song or songs remind you of Tom Carraway Cobalt?

Weekly Recap

Happy Friday, magical & heroic beauties! We are only ONE more Fizz Hangout away from Silver Sweet releasing! The Cobalt stars are shining bright!! If you haven't heard, the sold-out Silver Sweet release party just moved to a bigger venue in Temecula, CA, so there are now more tickets available if you wanted to attend! We're slowing down on signings/events, so if you're in the west coast, this might be one of the only chances to see us in possibly 2 years (maybe more) on that side of the country.

There's also a brand new Chat Room in the Patreon chats! You can visit Donnelly's Sketchbook chat to see and/or post Addictedverse art. We're already loving it, and thank you to Morgan and Maria for suggesting this new Chat Room -- and Yasti for coming up with the most perfect name! We imagine Luna would be frequenting this chat pretty much every day.

This month will be the last month for the WIP Snippet for a hot second. This is due to the POVs of Cobalt Empire #4 being a secret. We can't really share snippets while we're writing unless you know whose head you're in.

The Main and Extra bonuses for July are around the corner, and once Silver Sweet releases the first week of August, you'll also have another Newsletter bonus like we had for Burn Bright in addition to the two August bonuses on Patreon. We'll link the Newsletter bonus here, so you won't miss it! We are so pumped for the Silver Sweet timeline bonuses about to hit Patreon soon!

But until then, there are the July bonuses, and why wait for Tom's POV? That's right, we plan to release his POV pre-Silver Sweet timeline for at least one bonus. It's up to you whether you'd prefer to read his POV in a bonus scene after or before Silver Sweet releases, but we figure, you won't have long till August 4th if you'd prefer to hold off and read Silver Sweet first.

And in case you missed it, here's everything that dropped this past week on Patreon, including both podcasts:

Monthly Podcast: Loathed Love

Extra Podcast: What to Expect from Silver Sweet + 2026 Catch-Up with Krista & Becca

Art Reveal: Tom and Phoenix at a Dive Bar - New Art Reveal 🎨

First Look: Teaser Tuesday #3: Silver Sweet

Poll: Whose romance is Cobalt Empire #4? Guess the Cobalt before Silver Sweet releases!
