2023 fic round up
I have decided to do this because why not.
Tagging: @monocytogenes | @delicatefade | @theluckywizard | @rowanisawriter | @oxygenforthewicked | @bluewren | @exalted-dawn-drabbles and anyone else who would like to participate!
words posted: According to AO3 - 139,622. Which seems awfully high for how badly my output tanked in the second half of the year.
additional words written: Idek. but i do know I have at least 14k of my Dragon Age/Curse of Strahd crossover I'm probably never going to post. So that's how I'm rolling these days.
grand total of words: A lot, supposedly.
fandoms: Dragon Age, and I can never tell if I should count Twice Bitten as its own fandom, or stick it under the umbrella of Curse of Strahd, or stick both under the umbrella of Dungeons and Dragons. But that.
highest kudos: Through a Glass, Darkly, aka nightmare au, with 84.
highest hit oneshot: A Brief Respite, an extremely short and fluffy piece about Thalia and Cullen taking a nap together, lol. 470 hits!
new things I tried: A weird AF, extremely self-indulgent crossover.
fic I spent the most time on: Through a Glass, Darkly, I think. I updated 7 chapters!
fic I spent the least time on: All those wips that didn't get updated at all this year....
favorite thing I wrote: No contest. It's Thalia and Metrion. Every damn scene. They play off each other so well. I definitely didn't mean to get into an extremely obscure DND podcast and give Thalia a new best friend, but I did and here we are.
Second place is probably Samson taking a literal shit, though. And the continued adventures of Cullen and Samson as Templars in Kirkwall is a close third.
favorite thing(s) I read:
• ceasefire by @rowanisawriter - absolutely beautifully written, heartbreaking second chance romance between Cullen and an Inquisitor who made him keep taking lyrium.
• the words of the prophets (are written on the subways halls) by @inquisimer, a gift fic she wrote for me about Cullen and Samson's troubled friendship and IT IS GUT-WRENCHING AND DELIGHTFUL
• Aggressive Negotiations by windwalker57, a gift fic he wrote for DAFF OC Swap featuring Thalia in a fantastic action/adventure at the Hasmal Circle.
writing goals for 2024: Finish a wip before I have to ghost fandom in anticipation of Dreadwolf probably. Kingdom Come might be the closest to actually being finished, but I put the most brain power into Through a Glass, Darkly, so maybe that one. That seem ambitious, though.
new works: Too much assorted nonsense to name here. Feel free to peruse my AO3 if you're curious.
Template under the cut.

god i have. so many fuckin. wip thoughts. and i hate it. but anyway
the lady dressed in blood and the whole fleshwitch trilogy are kind of a prequel, like, chronologically. chronologically fw is one of the earliest stories that takes place in the shared universe of ye olde trial of lords, and also land of the shattering sky, which i have a whole tag for but never actually post about other than reblogging, and teeeeechnically unholy holy things, if uht taking place on the moon counts. the three books in the fleshwitch trilogy (lady dressed in blood, bastard crowned in thunder, and thief blessed by stars/man who stole the stars [title pending]) essentially serve as the backstory to one of the most devastating events in the history of teldar, the planet all these things take place on.
that event being the first Rending, in which the single continent on the planet was split into three and magic was literally re-written. the world literally ended. trial of lords and lotss are post-apocalyptic stories, except the apocalypse happened so long ago that it's distant memory.
except it's not distant memory. it happened again. tol isn't really about that and is very much a self-contained story taking place on a completely separate part of teldar. lotss is very much about that, and is both a post apocalyptic story and an apocalypse story. the world ended. then it ended again. and now it's happening a third time.
the problem with fw being a prequel is that it's really hard to write backwards, and many of the themes i want to have present in lotss are absent in fw by nature of it being a prequel--so much of lotss is about dismantling lies and breaking out of the structure of the fantasy narrative. but fw is a narrative, it's literally framed as a story being told long after everybody* involved is already dead. there's nothing in fw for the characters to break out of, because they already did everything that happened in their story. they've been dead since the beginning, and i tell you in the prologue that they all die, and exactly how it happens.
and right now the idea of breaking free appeals more to me. everything in fw is predestined. everything in lotss is up to the characters. even the prophecies in lotss end up being lies and the characters can choose not to follow them.
right now the idea of breaking out of the narrative and deconstructing fantasy tropes is more appealing to me than everybody being dead since the beginning. maybe that's a sign that i need to work on lotss and start writing it backwards. because they're the same story. just two different parts of it.

Listening to Vaundy and writing a Yule ball chapter at 6:30 in the morning on a Thursday. The music style doesn't match a self-indulgent Harrymort dance scene, but the song is on the fic soundtrack. So I'm splitting the difference there.
But oh, the ubiquitous dance scene. I couldn't possibly write a ball without some iteration of it. It's just such a perfect framework for heightened tension and, in this particular case, a little identity porn.
I unabashedly love this trope. Harry feeling that sense of connection with Gaunt, then the inevitable dissonance and confusion that accompanies meeting Lord Voldemort.
I'm also revisiting the outline. Not because I need to change any story beats, that's all fine, but because I underestimated how much space some of it needs. It's going to be longer than 26 chapters. There's no way I can wrap this up that quickly.
(The song is 花占い if anyone is curious.)

Creature Comfort
I want to be a comfort and confidant
To save your whispered sorrows for rainy days.
As I shower you with kisses,
sharing the burden of your heart.
Embraced in quiet, like a blanket
Easing your mind
as well as my own.

How far does one have to distance themselves from the source material before it becomes an original project? Does it count as “copying” or “ripping off” when your inspiration was everything the author should’ve done instead of the abysmal heap of derivative nonsense you were offered? How many details have to change? When do you gain custody of a story’s soul?

When you have a wheezing fit in the middle of a paragraph so now your character has breathing problems too.
#writing nonsense#fanfiction#i have decided jack has bigger lungs in wolf form#which makes sense considering the thicker chest and also extra aerobic capacity#like dude those jumps take OXYGEN#so going back to jack size is a little wheezy sometimes#this insight brought to you by whatever the fuck is wrong with my lungs#which i still do not know#and no I've never had covid or smoked

Guys, Kuai Liang has me in a chokehold! I've already written down 12,000 words for his chapter, and I'm amazed at how much story there is to tell! 😅 At this rate, it seems like this story will turn into a small novel! I checked, and typically romance books contain between 50,000 to 90,000 words. And now I'm past 26,000 words, and I've only reached maybe half of the story? (I don’t even want to know when I get to Bi-Han.) Hope you stick around until the end! 😂

Inside my head by: Kari Keillor
Me: I’d like to address something if I may…
Also me: yes, you may.
Me: really?
Also me: Yes. You may address whatever it is you’re feeling this moment in time now. You may regret addressing it in subsequent moments later, but for right now, please feel free to address whatever the feeling is that is here presently, and will most likely pass in another moment later.
Me: but I’d reeeeeaaaaally like to say this and be emphatic about it and rant and find people who agree with me to rant also and piss off people who don’t agree with my very righteous indignation and my sound opinion which is better or not and more informed or not then everyone else’s most likely yes according to me, most likely poop according to others and still others are having a lovely day enjoying the weather sipping their tea or coffee and not being bothered by my bother.
Also me: yes.
Me: I’m going to go now, to sip some coffee.
Also me: and the moment has past. Nicely done, you. Great choice in energy.
Me: yes. I feel so. Thank you, kindly.
Also me: take it from me, sometimes it’s not what you say that counts, but the process of not saying it and allowing the moment to pass into a more peaceful one because your perception may change.
Me: fair enough.
Also me: super! Enjoy your coffee.
For you Brits, it may be an earl grey with a spot of whole milk poured into the cup FIRST so that the tea stirs it in a more balanced and evenly distributed manner. Most every Brit would agree, some wouldn’t, but I’m not one nor do I enjoy earl grey tea, so that way I could surmise correctly, and/or I could be wrong depending on one’s preferences unless we agree or not and “so it goes”…. Vonnegut.
Scene.
This scene was brought to you by the letters D & N. D for Drama and N for no.

In an effort to overcome my lack of commitment to any and all WIPs I’ve decided to try skipping sections and just trying to write stuff that gives me dopamine.
So I’ve started leaving myself notes.
Some of them are kinda funny. All of them are smut related which I’m sure says something about me as a person.
- Tav is attention starved and after a few days of Gale ignoring his needs to hurry and finish the stupid editing process she forces him to stop and they do the horizontal mambo (I was intoxicated when I wrote this one which is more of a prompt I guess)
-Ugh there’s some kind of transition here. Some argument they have. Maybe “how long have you wanted to” but I’m just gonna write cute smut instead.
- More cuddling, some cute stuff, can’t just wake up and BANG. Gale is the cuddling adorable sweet ROMANTIC who’s comforting his girl after a nightmare. LESS CARNAL LUST
#someone save me from myself#these are three separate fics#out of too many#two for gale and one for Rolan#I need to write for Dammon#saw a drawing with his hair down and I am feral#ao3#bg3#ao3 stuff#bg3 gale#bg3 rolan#bg3 fanfiction#writing nonsense
