Idk if I'm actually active enough to warrant this but yes please do tell me

For the record, I would never knowingly use or share AI generated art in anything I post, so if you ever catch me doing so, it was an accident, and I'd like you to let me know so I can delete it.

Well, since you suggested it, in your end notes, here I am, having just finished terminus ante quem. The biggest mystery for me is what happened to Aimeric's family and why He was seemingly left behind. And yet his brother is still his emergency contact; so what happened to his brother?

Hi! Welcome in and hope you enjoyed the fic :)

In my original draft, I actually had a bit of dialogue explaining what happened, but it was never really brought up after that one exchange and didn't add much so I took it out.

Basically, the Regent happened.

(continued under the cut)

In this au, Laurent's parents kept him and Auguste away from the regent, but Guion was still very much in the Regent's pocket, including canon shitty father things (aka selling his own son out for some more social prestige and power).

When Aimeric and Laurent are 14, Guion sent Florian—the brother that serves as Aimeric's emergency contact—to help the Regent fix a bug on his computer, since Florian was studying computer science at the time. While doing that, he found proof of the Regent's actions, and what happened to Aimeric. He told his mother, Loyse and Guion had a fight wherein Guion reveals just how much of a useless waste-of-oxygen scumbag he is, and Loyse packsedthe kids up and leaves with little to no warning. The Regent was, unfortunately, powerful enough that they might not have won a court case against him, and she hadn't wanted Aimeric to face that level of scrutiny. Aleron didn't explain what happened to Laurent, though he suspected it. Hence why Aimeric vanished for seemingly no reason to Laurent.

The main reason Florian is Aimeric's emergency contact is because he was the only one who knew, in detail, what had happened. That meant that Aimeric felt more comfortable putting him down compared to his other brothers (who have never been any good to him anyways) or his mother (who would probably be horrifically overprotective and therefore overwhelming if anything like this happened). He never told Jord what happened, and so Jord was out as an emergency contact. It was honestly a matter of bad timing—his brother is working outside of the country when all this goes down, and Aimeric never thought to change it because a) he'd been fine for a while before things fell apart with Jord and b) after things fell apart, he didn't have the mental energy to call the hospital and fill out all the forms and do all the legwork, so he left it.

(Don't worry—the Regent did get brought to court for this by a different survivor's family eventually, and promptly died in prison after being sentenced. Fuck that guy.)

Summary:

Back then, Aimeric had sat with him, staunch in his refusal to leave Laurent to his misery. Two thirteen year olds, all gangly limbs and shadowed eyes, huddled into a couple of chairs in the corner with their hands clasped tight. Waiting.

Now Laurent has no one with him, and Aimeric is the one he's waiting for.

I’m back from the dead with a new angst-filled fic lmao

Have I not written anything in three years? Yes! Did the creative writing demon take over my mind and body entirely for five days? Yes! Are they out of character? Probably!

In any case—it’s written, it’s done, it’s here if anyone wants to read it

It doesn't show up on mobile so make sure to do it on browser!!!

psst, tumblr just quietly rolled out collaboration with ai training models, and it's opt-out, not opt-in, go into your blog settings to fix it [on desktop, anyway, dunno where you'd look on mobile] keep fighting the good fight <3

I don't see an option for it now, so it may not have rolled out for everyone yet? Unless I'm just missing where it is

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

aftg fic where everything is the same but the story is just told through bee’s therapy notes. just imagine the jump between sessions.

session 36: andrew is doing well this week, spending time with family and kevin, feeling needed. slight paranoia regarding new recruit, spoke about coping mechanisms when feeling as if loved ones are threatened. discussed the upcoming school year.

session 37: andrew has drugged the new recruit and interrogated him. tells me they’ve come to an understanding. no signs of remorse. discussed possible legal consequences of actions and how we could have addressed that more healthily. scheduling in for extra sessions to work on impulse control.

I love that scene in tkm where Wymack tells Neil he's going to make him vice captain the next year and Neil tries to politely decline (on the grounds that he'll be dead by then) and Wymack is literally like too bad bitch. This isn't a democracy and i say you're the next captain so figure it out

So I just finished Prince's Gambit and I had to draw them before I continue to book 3...
