Dungeons & Drabbles - 2022

Day 1 - Abolish

-------------------------

Bell Hells Modern AU

“What the FUCK, Orym?! You can't just ban shit on the fly like that!”

Orym sighed at his friend’s combative outburst, more than used to Ashton’s usual brand of colourful language mixed with his signature rage. Perhaps for most things he’d be willing to let this go, to peacefully talk this out.

But considering the circumstances…

“You know I'm not one for hard enforcement. Normally I'd just let this go but, well…” Orym trailed off, his gaze drifting to the sizable crack in his coffee table. At least then Ashton had the decency to look guilty about it, unlike certain OTHER friends of his in this room.

Fearne, all sweet smiles and innocent doe eyes, met Orym’s gaze easily. There wasn't a trace of guilt to be found, though he honestly wasn't all that surprised by that. To expect shame from Fearne was like expecting your cat to feel bad about breaking grandma’s urn; it just wasn't going to happen.

He sighed heavily, tension high in his shoulders.

“I agree with Orym!” A chipper voice joined the conversation, and Orym swiveled his head just in time to watch Fresh Cut Grass wheel themself into his lounge room. “It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, and I think punchin’ the table every time someone gets an Uno is… well, it's askin’ for something to break.”

“And I'd rather it NOT be my coffee table. Or someone's wrist. Again,” Orym not so gently reminded the pair.

“Hey! It was a fracture and it was damn well worth it!” replied Ashton. “I'd do it again to wipe that sweet little smile off your cheating ass face, Calloway!”

“It's only cheating if you catch me~” Fearne retorted with a light and breezy giggle. “But fiiiiine, we’ll just have to play by a different set of rules… Strip Uno~?”

Orym settled back on the couch, feeling as FCG dropped himself down beside him. He dropped his head against his ever smiling friend’s shoulder, and melted ever so slightly into their touch as he felt deft fingers slip into his hair.

“Thanks, Grass…” Orym muttered appreciatively, eyes growing heavy as a comfortable warmth enveloped him. He loved his friends dearly, more than almost anything in the world. That didn't stop them from being about as exhausting as a five hour triathlon when it came to such minor disputes though.

That's why it was nice to have someone like Fresh Cut Grass around, someone who would usually back him up when it came time to put his foot down and abolish some truly stupid home rules.

Who knew that game night could be such a dangerous battlefield?

“Don't mention it,” FCG chirped in reply. “Always happy to help a good friend!”

A Year in Writing; 2023 — A Retrospective

This year really fucking sucked for me, and thanks to most people deciding they don't care about covid and virus prevention any more, I spent a not insignificant amount of 2023 sick from entirely preventable diseases and chasing medical care. Still I wrote when I could, and what I lacked in quantity I made up for in persistence.

Behind the scenes I split Untitled Camelot fic into smaller, more manageable wips that I can slowly begin to publish when I'm ready. And god I came SO CLOSE to finishing Under the Wave, but it just wasn't to be with the luck I've had.

The Heart of Janus, Published:

June 17 - Honey and Lemon Returned from Hiatus (E) August 12 - Under the Wave Returned with 5 Chapters (M) November 11 - The Grave of the Felled Forest Launched (T) December 2 - Honey and Lemon Returned from Hiatus (E)

The Heart of Janus, Wips:

Camelot Fic; The Green Knight

Under the Sun — Part Two: The Daughters of Magic

Under the Sun — Part Three: The Pursuit of Stone

Arcadian Witch (aka Witch!Lenora Fic)

The Homework Squad (Multiple PoV; Coach Lawrence, Uhl, Janeth, Strickler)

Dungeons and Dragons, Published:

July 5-August 5 - Web of Starlight Returned from Hiatus with 4 more chapters

Dungeons and Dragons, Wips:

Web of Starlight

Doctor Robin Antimony

Doctor Beauregard Aubin Marceau Thibault-Babineaux

Stats

Overall Word Count: 112096

Highest Word Count in a Day: 3364 (August 29)

Average Word Count on a Writing Day: 849

Priority Project: 33692 (Heart of Janus)

Other Projects: 78404 (Web of Starlight, Robin, & a Secret Third Thing)

What I Learnt as a Writer in 2023:

Disabilities are disabling especially when it's inconvenient to you personally.

You cannot force words when you're unable.

It's fine to hold off on publishing something until you have the spoons to go back and polish it to a level you're satisfied with sharing.

How to publish anonymously on Ao3 using the anonymous collective.

Writing Goals for 2024:

Finish Under the Wave (I'm onto the final arc) and move onto Publishing The Green Knight.

Experiment with Drabbles.

Split up non-ToA notes and prose in the future.

Health willing, schedule time to read and art also.

Enjoy life

The Journey of my fanfic author beginnings

I started fic writing in 2008. I was a senior in high school. I started with basic of Twilight. Then I moved into Gilmore Girls, Buffy, Naruto, and Vampire Diaries. By 2014 I had ongoing multichapter fics but I made a change in my life. I dropped out of college and focused on being a real estate agent.

I did the schooling and the testing, that’s when we found out I had testing anxiety. I then had to learn to drive which made my anxiety. rise up. But I didn’t have my go to safe haven. I couldn’t focus on fics even though I could focus.

I started out on ffnet. I didn’t know about AO3 and I wish I did. Lo and behold it’s 2016 and I do. Back then you had to either be invited or put on the waiting list. It didn’t take long. I applied by the end of 2016 and by January 2017 I had an account.

At that point I was still not writing. So I uploaded an old story to get the feel. I was currently watching VLD. And I had ideas. I was secure in my job and afraid to touch my old multi-chapter fics. Has it been too long. Even though I always kept them in my thoughts.

But a certain ship really took over and I started getting into online fandom again. The last fandom was on tumblr and I kept to the outskirts. I didn’t make any mutuals in it. But with this new ship that I fell in love with since 2016. I was going to start using my twitter. I started following amazing fic writers and fan artist.

And I went into this fandom know the problems because I watched from the sidelines. I saw some of the fic writers leave because of they received and needed to protect their mental health. I also started fic writing again.

The ending of the show was painful not for reason you thing. The last season was just bad and Where We Belong started to become more than a concept. I have been welcomed and have made so many friends.

I started entering events. Applying to zines. These people have been amazing and I’m glad I jumped into participating. Flash forward four years later and I’m still thriving. I’m a bit burned out writing for a certain ship but still love them and slowly writing for them.

In 2021 I started my Patreon. I write daily drabbles of various ships and general drabbles. I have thrived and I’m glad to be a fic writer. Seventeen year old me was scared because of early child bullying but as a child I always loved writing.

Now since March of 2022 I have been working on a passion project series. I have always wanted to play dungeons and dragons. Never voiced it out loud. I always wanted to watch Critical Role. Just my dumbass couldn’t figure out where that wasn’t a podcast. I had others always talk about the podcast. Well Because of Robbie Daymond I finally found out where. So I have been watching campaign three and slowly making my way through campaign 1.

In January I started Legend of Vox Machina. When it finished I was gone. I loved every single character that’s when I decided to start watching Critical Role live and catching up on campaign 1. I have so many ships canon and not canon but it was Gilmore/Vax’ildan that stole my heart (yes I know what happens.) I love Vax/Keyleth too. Just there was enough fics for me to consume. And I found a few prompt lists that were perfect for the pairing.

That is what birthed the In Another Life Series. It’s still on going and has other stories to. It’s about them together if it was a different life. It brings me so much joy that I can incorporate three things I love: Fanfic, Critical Role, and Dnd.

I can’t believe this series alone that was started in March is already +30k. I am really proud of it. That’s where my journey as a fic writer has lead me.

Explore the Dungeon, Become a Hero by Kai Delmas

Explore the dungeon, they said. Slay the monster, they said. Become a hero, they said.

Published in our August 20, 2022 newsletter. Full story is under the cut.

Link to sign up for the newsletter is in the blog description!

Explore the dungeon, they said. Slay the monster, they said. Become a hero, they said.

And that’s exactly what I was going to do. I spent half my life training at the Academy for Potential Heroes of Dargon. I was fifth best in my class. All I needed was to slay my first monster to become a hero.

I thought I was ready for anything, but nothing could have prepared me for you.

The moment I saw those dazzling petals blooming from your head I knew that I had found something I hadn’t even known I was searching for. My soulmate.

I wondered what our future would bring. We wouldn’t have to move if you didn’t want to. This was your dungeon after all. I could learn to live with the slimy walls and sludge covered floors.

Maybe some scented candles would help against the smell and brighten up the place. Sunlight would be better, of course, but I wouldn’t want to harm your delicate, pale skin if you preferred the dark.

There were so many things I didn’t know about you. For example, why your beautiful flowers were wilting and why your tentacles were wrapped around me so tight.

I didn’t even know you had tentacles.

Next, I noticed the stink of your breath as you opened your maw and showed me rows upon rows of razor-sharp teeth.

That’s when your charm upon me ended and I discovered being fifth best was not good enough to become a hero.

Kai Delmas loves creating worlds, magic systems, and drabbles.

Dungeons & Drabbles - 2022

Day 5 - Fabricate

----------------------

FCG Centric Hurt / Comfort

Fabricate.

To invent something in order to deceive.

Wasn't that what they were? A fabrication of a being, an automaton made to deceive others into thinking he was kind and gentle, a helper. Only to then turn around and brutally bring about their deaths. The definition fit, the word itself clinging to his body like the sunshiney paint that adorned him.

FCG ran a hand down his face, metallic fingers sliding past bits of chipped paint and scratches. Was this a product of time, or damage from slaughters long forgotten? Had those he’d killed in the past tried to fight back? Had some gotten away, like Dancer had? Maybe many had survived, like Bells Hells, rightfully beating them down and knocking him out…

It wasn't like they could even find out though.

Those memories were gone, along with the person he'd once been.

… Well, except that wasn’t fully true, was it? When Imogen had lost control against Otohan, he'd seen things. Seen the celebrations. The frightening man. The kind woman.

Flashes of a life so long ago, now forgotten.

Were those memories though?

What if they had been a fabrication as well?

Anxiously FCG tapped their fingers against their chest plate, against the blades of grass.

Tap. Tap. Tap. Ta-

A hand over theirs, large and calloused. Jade.

Ashton.

Blue met purple, a raised brow silently asked ‘You good?’

They went to nod, to simply brush it all off, but found themself unable to. Because… would that not also be a lie, a fabrication to keep Ashton from worrying?

Instead their head shook, a slow, almost meek motion.

An arm was dropped over their shoulders, and swiftly they felt themself being tugged into Ashton’s side. Who were they to fight this rare show of affection?

FCG leant into them, careful to try and not cause Ashton any undue pain.

“... Thank you,” they whispered, and something inside their body seemed to spark in an almost fluttering way when their friend flashed a quick smile their way.

“Always here for ya, bud. So don't mention it.”

Dungeons & Drabbles - 2022

Day 26 - Impulse

--------------------

Ashton & FCG (Modern Human AU)

Fresh Cut Grass sighed, pulling out the mini first aid kit he kept on his chair. Once upon a time, maybe back in their teenage years, they would have been horribly distressed to see a bruised and bleeding Ashton. These days though? It barely elicited more than a tired sigh.

After all, one eventually got used to Ashton’s impulsive nature and his seemingly unending desire to scrap.

“Come on, let's get you down on the ground…”

Ashton grunted, sliding down the wall and effectively blocking their front door. Not that they were expecting anyone to use it anytime soon. Milo and Anni were two hours away at the latter’s violin recital (she'd only been allowed one guest, Ashton loathed to sit still and be quiet for so long and the venue wasn't really wheelchair accessible, so Milo it was), and no one else really visited them.

Well, besides Gramps Eshteross, but the old man had been dragged a city away by his eccentric friend Bertrand and wasn't expected to be back for at least a week.

So… just the two of them it was.

“What was the fight over this time?”

Not that Ashton usually needed much of a reason to tussle. His partner would throw fists over a bad anime opinion if people were open to it. As rough and tumble as Ashton was they hardly ever threw the first punch.

“Some dick at th’ bar was bein’ a transphobic assfuck… So I showed him just what a ‘gender confused little child’ could fuckin’ do!”

Well, at least today's fight was fairly justified then. One couldn't usually speak kindness into a transphobe, as Fresh Cut Grass had sadly learned themself.

Carefully, they pulled themself from his wheelchair, wincing a little as they did. Sadly the pain in their legs never truly went away, and improper transfers out of his chair always tended to hurt.

Still, Ashton was worth the pain and proper medical care couldn't really be done from their chair. At least not while Ashton was drunk and slumped on the floor.

“... You okay, Grass?”

Silly how Ashton was the one looking so concerned when THEY were the one bleeding.

“Thank you for the concern, but I'm fine! You know getting down here hurts a bit, but it's nothing I can't handle! Now, can you show me your arm please?”

Fresh Cut Grass watched as their purple haired compatriot held out his arm, the nasty gash now much easier for their bespectacled gaze to see. It certainly LOOKED bad, but everything looked bad caked in blood. A few wet wipes and a dash of detol later and the wound looked… manageable. Any deeper and they imagined it would need stitches. Luckily for them, it didn't and Fresh Cut Grass was instead able to dress the wound easily enough.

Each little scrape and cut was tended to, cleaned and dressed where needed with colorful, smiley face bandaids.

“There! All cleaned up! You're definitely going to hurt in the morning though… more than usual, I mean. I'll get your electric blanket going to help detense your muscles. And please take the painkillers I bring you? I know you think you don't need them after the adrenaline of a fight but Morning Ashton will thank you and it'll help me sleep a lot better!”

Honestly they’d sleep best if their beloved partner didn't wander off at least once a week to go get smashed… along with getting their face smashed in. But by now they knew better than to fight Ashton on it. It was better to be ready at home, to patch them up afterwards and hold him if everything got to be too much.

Still, that impulse to grab them by the hand, to beg him to stay home and away from all that was almost too much for Fresh Cut Grass to bear some nights. They loathed seeing Ashton so beat up, the scent of blood and booze that clung to them was enough to turn his stomach.

None of that was voiced though.

Instead, Fresh Cut Grass forced himself up, gritting their teeth to keep themself from crying out as they took a few terribly painful, shaky and uneven steps back to their chair.

“... You're too good for me, Grass… You all fuckin’ are…” Ashton slurred.

“You know that's not true, Ash,” Fresh Cut Grass whispered in turn, already wheeling away from the one he loved so. “Just try and stay awake for now, okay? I'll be back in a few minutes!”

They wheeled themself away, heart heavy as they did. And perhaps, this time, it was more than a bit obvious as Ashton watched them go with a heavy frown… and a glimmer of resolve in their eye.

A silent promise to do better. To be better. For themself and the people they loved.

My 2021 Fanfiction Year in Review

So… I wasn’t tagged, but I saw this little game back at @soullistrations and @daikon1 and decided to try it myself, so here we go.

Total Word Count: 95,775 (shame I haven’t finished that new chapter of When the Wolf Comes on time, that way I would have at least 100,000 – still very nice and much more than I’ve expected!)

Total Fics Completed: 38 (a lot of those are drabbles, but wow)

Fandoms: Detroit: Become Human

Top 5 fics by word count:

Of Golden Mirrors and Secret Admirers: 21,539 words, Fantasy/Fairy Tale AU. Honestly, this might be my overall personal favorite so far. Seems like lots of fluff, misunderstandings, and a happy ending is my shtick.

When the Wolf Comes: 21,415 words, Dark Fantasy/Werewolf AU, unfinished. I’m in the middle of writing the next chapter, and I’m excited to continue this bad boy in 2022.

A Child to Call Their Own – 7,922 words. A baby fic I never thought I would write. Still, it was a lot of fun.

Let Me Make It Up to You – 5,992 words. The first fic I’ve written this year, and my first smut too. Turned out better than I’d expected, to be honest.

Christmas Miracle – 5,245 words. The second fic starring deviant pet canaries Lemon and Chirpy. It was harder to write than I’d expected, but I loved every second of writing it nonetheless.

Top 5 fics by kudos:

Sleepover: 114 kudos

His Father’s Son: 101 kudos

Let Me Make It Up to You: 86 kudos

Of Golden Mirrors and Secret Admirers: 73 kudos

In the Heat of the Moment: 73 kudos

I’m so, so happy that two of my fics made it past 100 kudos this year and I’m grateful for each one of them. It sometimes helps me to remember that readers actually enjoy my writing, that it’s making them feel something, whether it’s happiness, sadness or anything really. That’s the greatest thing about writing, and I love it to bits.

Do you have any fanfic goals for the New Year?

My goal is to continue writing When the Wolf Comes and hopefully finish it soon. It’s the first time I’ve worked on such a big fic project, so I have high hopes for it. I also have a lot of plot bunnies I would like to work on in the meantime (for example a Vampire AU, fic about Daniel and Simon meeting in the canon universe, more snippets from Simon‘s and Markus‘ lives – one of them not part of my biggest series – and so on).

But I would also like to write a fic or two for the Darkest Dungeon fandom (there is a serious lack of Reynauld/Dismas fics and it’s irking me so much that I want to try my hand writing my own).

I also intend to go back to writing original fiction and taking part in contests, organize the Simarkus Week in February and try to write more comments. So… a lot of plans, so very few time.

At any rate, let‘s hope next year will be as good for my writing as the last one was.

Happy New Year everyone, and stay safe!

Dungeons & Drabbles - 2022

Day 6 - Entropy

---------------------

Krook House QueerPlatonic Polycule - Modern Human AU

(Okay, so I was super stuck on this for a whileeeee. For the life of me I just couldn't think of anything for entropy… except for the MLP fan song for Discord. Soooo you're getting that. The song’s a bop anyway~

Also, I've decided now that any Modern Human AU I write for this is just a prototype for the biiiig Bells Hells / Crown Keepers Modern Human AU that I wanna write. It's good practice to get used to writing them all human and outta the canon universe~

Anyway, I hope y’all enjoy!)

“You tried so hard to make a hero outta me, but there are some rules I don't obey… and I just wanna cause a little chaos and entropy~♪”

Fuck, now it was gonna be stuck in his head for WEEKS. Everyone knew that when you started singing the damn song absentmindedly, that it meant you were bound to have it bore into your brain and hibernate there for the next fortnight and a half at LEAST.

Which was gonna be hellish, but hey, it could have been worse. Anni could have heard hi-

“Fuckin’ knew it was you!”

Speak of the devil. Or in this case one of his ‘beloved’ partners, who right now seemed to be screaming to be thrown out a window. Defenestrated, if they wanted to get fancy and earn a few brownie points from Letters. ‘Learning is always important!’ after all.

“Do we gotta do this shi-”

“dO wE gOtTa DO tHiS sHiT~? Fuck yes we gotta, I heard your ass singing pony shit, and it's my duty and right to tease the ever loving fuck outta ya!” Anni grinned, the edges of it taking on just a hint of malice, yet only a teasing way. As much as the two bickered and bitched about one another, there was a lotta love there, and neither of them actually wished any harm on the other… nor would they wanna cause it.

Teasing and being a casual dick though? That was fair game.

“When a track slaps, it slaps. I don't control the rate at which shit slaps, An,” Ashton argued in turn, and ignored the pointed eye roll he received in turn. Hey, if she wanted to fight them on this then she'd have to do all the heavy lifting.

“Maybe, but you DO have enough of a brain left in there to still have good taste, right?”

“Low blow,”

“No lower than your shit taste in music.”

“Least it ain't as low as your taste bud count. Lemon juice on spaghetti o’s? What the actual fuck?”

“Fuck you! You’ve just got the taste buds of a five year old!”

“Better the taste buds than the IQ.”

“You callin’ me a dumb bitch?”

“Never a bitch! I'm a fuckin’ gentleman, Anni, you think I'd stoop that low? Am calling you dumb though.”

“Get fucked you sparkle horse loving cu-”

“What are you two fighting about this time?”

Both Anni and Ashton froze, already feeling the disapproving gazes of their partners upon them. Getting the look from just one of them was bad enough, but having both Letters and Milo stare at you like that had a certain silencing effect.

Especially when it was mixed with Milo’s rare ‘what the fuck is pulling me from my work’ tone of voice.

“Anni’s calling me a loser for liking pony songs, like the elitist prick musician she is.”

��Get stuffed!”

“With you? Nah. Gross.”

“I'd be offended if that feeling wasn't fully shared. Cause yeah. Gross.”

“... Is there something wrong with liking My Little Pony?”

Never had Anni gone from being a smug ass bitch to horrifically regretful so fast. The woman may have claimed to the world that nothing would ever make her take back anything she said, but one sad look from Letters… Man, the guilt had rarely kicked in so fast.

“Fuck. No… I was just-” Anni cringed, looking between Milo and Ashton for support. The former raised a brow at her from behind their coke bottle glasses, a hand now balanced upon their hip in a way that just screamed ‘You dug your own grave, find a way out.’

The latter brushed past her, coming to kneel beside Fresh Cut Grass’ wheelchair with only a slight wince of pain. He laid a hand over FCG’s own and offered it a reassuringly squeeze.

“Nah. The ponies are fine by me. And hey, Anni likes The Batchelor, so maybe she should shut the fuck up.”

“The Batchelor is a god damned mas- Right, fuck. Apologies.”

Anni had the decency to look guilty at least, kicking her heels as she gnawed at her lip anxiously. Apologies had never been her strong suit. Nor had any kind of intimacy. But for her partners she was willing to try. They deserved at least that.

“... Sorry. I was bein’ an ass. Just wanted to rile Ash up and didn't think shit through. You're free to like whatever the fuck you like. Cringe is dead and Ash and I personally shanked that bitch! It's flne for ya to like the pastel horses. But you ain't ever getting me to watch it, okay? I’d rather choke to death on actual horse cock,”

“Stunning visuals there as always, Anni.” Milo sighed.

“What can I say? I live to displease~”

“... Thanks, Anni. And Ashton,” FCG uttered quietly, smiling a little as they watched Anni’s cheeks burn and cough into her hand awkwardly. “Oh! What was the song you were singing, by the way? Let me guess!! Smile? No… I'm thinking it was a fan song, right? Oh! I know! Is it the one I showed you last night? Entropy?”

“Damn right it was Entropy! The fuckin’ thing is STILL in my head!”

Letters laughed, the sound as brightly infectious as ever. There was a round of chuckles and snickers, and by the time they all wandered off to do their own things each and every one of them was wearing a smile.

Damn was their good mood contagious.

Just like that dang song.

Dungeons & Drabbles - 2022

Day 4 - Monopoly

--------------------------------

Bells Hells / Crown Keepers Modern Human AU

Chaos.

Pure chaos.

The house rarely looked in such disarray, unless a good lot of them were absolutely smashed. Or worse, like right now… it being game night.

Honestly, you’d think they’d learn, maybe cancel the whole thing. Or at least play some co-op games, something where they had to work together towards a common goal! They had brilliant teamwork skills, well, when it came to each other that was.

But no.

They’d chosen the most competitive of games, the destroyer of families and friendships, and the death of peace itself.

Monopoly.

Imogen ducked as a shoe threw over her head, coming from Fearne’s direction. Where she'd gotten it from, no one knew. The woman didn't even WEAR shoes!

“You lookin’ for a fight, darlin’?” Imogen called out, a fierce smile pulling at her lips as she flashed the street she’d just bought. “We could finish this peacefully… if you're willing to trade. You know the one I want.”

Oh how Fearne gasped, like she’d just been asked to give up her first-born child. Honesty she may have been more willing to give that up than trade away one of her beloved 'possessions’.

“Piccadilly is so fun to say though! Are you sure you wouldn't like to just… give it to me?”

At this Fearne fluttered her eyelashes, leaning forward just a little to show off her cleavage. To her dismay, Imogen didn't budge, not even an inch.

“Your tots are nice, but this business, Fearne. It's Piccadilly for Kings Cross Station, or it's nothing,” Imogen retorted, her tone deathly cool.

“You're no fun…” Fearne pouted, throwing her arms around an exasperated Orym beside her. “Orym, you’ll help me, won't you~? You know how much I adore the stations~”

A sigh left Orym’s lips, as he surveyed the damage around the room. Laudna sat beside Imogen, peached up on the coffee table like a gargoyle. Beside he was Chetney, and the two of them seemed to be in some kind of heated debate (or maybe discussion?), about the game pieces. Something about which was superior, Chet’s hand carved little werewolf, or Laudna’s, uh, resin coated beetle cross moth monstrosity.

Dorian was right beside Orym, his head resting upon his thigh as he napped. The poor man had had an early start at the cafe today and was never gonna make it through one of their late-night gaming sessions. At least he was blissfully unaware of the disaster around him. For that he was grateful.

Opal and Dariax we're definitely drunk, and we're currently wrestling one another. Over what, Orym couldn't say. He wasn't even sure if it was about the game or not, but they were certainly going at it hard. Already a lamp lay tipped over and bent beside them, a casualty neither of them took any note of.

F’yra wasn't even in the room anymore.

Perhaps she’d decided to leave them to their self-Created hell.

Or maybe she was just in the bathroom.

Either way, she wasn't currently a part of this cluster fuck, thankfully.

Ashton lay on the couch, groaning as FCG wheeled up beside him in their chair and laid a tea towel wrapped packet of peas to Ashton’s black eye. That had been an earlier casualty of this mess, a scuffle and shouting match over a sketchy dice roll by Fearne that had led to an unfortunately timed trip and hand flailing combo.

There hadn't been any hard feelings over it, and Ashton had stated that they were fine. But Letters had insisted that his partner lay down and they didn't seem to be in the mood anymore to argue.

That had calmed things down, somewhat.

Not enough though.

Not enough at all.

“I think I feel a headache coming on…” Orym muttered, unfortunately just loud enough for anyone not currently bickering to hear.

“Already fuckin’ there,” Ashton said through gritted teeth, and it seemed with that that FCG had officially had enough. He handed the makeshift ice pack to their purple haired companion, gently running his hand through his frizzy soft locks, before directing himself in their shiny yellow (and sticker bedazzled) wheelchair towards The Cabinet.

Orym chuckled weakly, knowing what was coming next. As a show of kindness to the man dozing in his lap, he reached over for a pair of noise canceling headphones (Fearne’s, he thought), and slid them over Dorian’s ears.

Right in time too, as not seconds later FCG turned to face the group, triumphant with their prize from The Cabinet: A fluro, hot pink, knock off Minions branded air horn. He gave the group a fair warning, clearing his throat and calling out first.

“Okay! I think game night is over now! Can we all be quiet, please?”

The only ones to acknowledge them were Ashton and Orym, who both threw FCG a thumbs up before blocking their own ears.

Well. They had been warned now.

A sigh fell from FCG’s lips, before holding the can up high and blasting the air horn.

There was a series of shouts and screams, and a laugh could be heard from F’yra as she stepped into the room from the kitchen, garlic bread in hand. So that was where she’d been.

Swiftly they all fell to silence though, letting Letters put the air horn, so lovingly named Sir Bitch Blaster by both Ashton and Fearne, safely back into its home within The Cabinet.

“Thank y’all! I know you were all havin’ fun there, but we got a black eye, two headaches and a lamp down. Any more fightin’ can move to the backyard! Otherwise, I think we're done here, right?”

There was a scattering of embarrassed and ashamed mutters around the room, and Orym couldn't find himself more grateful than when he witnessed everyone getting up and tidying up the place.

The fighting was done. Well, at least until the NEXT game night.

But for now, Orym could breathe a little easier.
