Y’all… all I have left is the one loooong smut scene and this next Moth to Flame oneshot will be done and up very, very soon!! 🤞🏻❤️
Al Pacino in a scene fr. the New York Shakespeare Festival production of the play "Julius Caesar".

"Pacino, as Mark Antony, gives the evening’s most bewildering and idiosyncratic performance. The actor has a magnetic physical presence, and it’s impossible not to watch him when he is on stage. His Antony moves like a feral, street-wise gang leader who belongs more in the Bronx than in ancient Rome. So does his accent.
To compensate for his blue-collar patois, Pacino speaks in a slow, deliberate cadence. He spits out each word carefully as if he were afraid of mispronunciation. What’s left is language devoid of any feeling or emotion."

OK! Pinch me because I'm dreaming!!!! I love you!! Part II here we come!!

I know what my readers want and have definitely been paying attention to what everyone’s requesting and wanting to see especially through oneshot feedbacks and constant Victoria x Michael prompts in my inbox. 👀
That’s not to mention the fact I’m already well through the process of planning out an entire new plot arc for the fic that couldn’t ever fit into a single oneshot, let alone 5+. 😅
1956 canon year, baby Vincent’s birth, and a whole lot more of the drama, angst and smut I know you guys have loved throughout the fic. 🤗💞
As for the two endings? Sure, they could apply if you wish. 😌 Or you can just ignore them entirely. 😂
More of Connie and Leonardo’s marriage and relationship.
Baby Vincent’s birth with Michael and Victoria’s adjustment after the attempt on Victoria’s life by Kay.
Central themes of forbidden love, jealousy, blackmail, betrayal, distrust, secrets, impact on the Corleone and Ferrari family reputations, and murder.
A revenge arc with a new character (and a returning one nobody ever expected) that will pull on heartstrings, cause rifts, distrust and ultimately lead to more tragedy.
A focus on Michael and Victoria’s romantic, sexual and marital life.
More of the twins growing up and their personalities forming.
More holidays and family time spent with the Corleone’s such as Father’s Day, etc.
More of Victoria’s family and brothers.
We’re looking at about 11 new chapters so far (maybe more, maybe less, we’ll see!) because as you know, I may always increase/decrease that depending on how the plot goes. 🥴😂
There will be one canon ending only. 👁👁 Love it or hate it, it’s bound to be the most thrilling and exciting end to the fic yet.
I don’t like to say “never again”, but I do think this will officially mark the end of “Moth to Flame” for good. 😌❤ I’ll still be uploading new fics including new multi-chapter Godfather fanfics amongst other oneshots but will of course remain heavily focused on Moth to Flame Part II first. 😛
I’m going to try and have regular fic uploads on Pacino Saturdays 😂❤ but please keep in mind I don’t have a rigid schedule for any fic uploads. Life and work also keep me busy but I love to post regular updates of how chapters/fics are going, especially if they’ll be uploaded earlier or later than expected. 🙏🏻 Pls respect this. 🥺 Amidst balancing other fics and prompts, as much as I love writing I don’t work under pressure and definitely don’t want to come down to writer’s block or a burnout doing what I adore. 💔
70s & 80s AL PACINO 😏🥵 request for @dinalovesalpacino.
The Godfather hit theaters nationwide on March 24, 1972. Happy 50th anniversary!
Chapter 30 means we’re back to the main plot of the fic! 😳🙏🏻 Only 5 chapters to go until we reach the end… 👀 Now that Michael’s in Havana to track down the mastermind behind the assassination plot, it appears his associates have more pleasure and relaxation on their mind than business. Surrounded by what would be known as “tempting themes” 😏 and debauchery, what exactly happens, and how does Michael react when he knows he can cheat on you and get away with it?
new conspiracy theory unlocked: al pacino and robert de niro both had/are having babies soon bc the children are actually clones of themselves and they planned the scheme together so that al pacino and robert de niro's visuals never die
give that man a Mrs. Corleone!😍😭
Mr. Corleone is finally HERE!! 😩😍❤️
And he looks soooo perfect next to my Godfather collection!! 🥹🫶🏻
I’m still waiting on a nice black suit to arrive for him and a new head! Not that I don’t like his current head but I found a much realistic version with Michael’s hair slicked back differently and it looks fine as hell. 🥴
Replaced Michael’s hands with the more detailed and realistic hands that came in before Michael did. 😂 I really love these hands. The finger proportions are amazing. I also think Michael’s skin tone matches better with these new hands too. As you can see, Michael’s holding his old hand in comparison to his new ones. 💀
It appears the only downside to the new hands is that Mr. Corleone’s wedding ring doesn’t fit! 😭😔 Michael’s deep in thought as to what this all means now.
Details, details! This is a lovely blue suit with high quality fabric. I can’t wait to see how good he’s gonna look in a classic black suit, though! 🖤
I don’t think I’m ever gonna shut up about my Michael figure, so be on the look out for more posts of him. 😂❤️ He will sit on my shelf and occasionally my work desk to judge and ponder upon me. I still have a bottle of whiskey that will arrive for him to hold and have a drink from too lmfao.
