🤔 The first fic you think of when I say Dragons

(For the ask game!)

Oh I love that one, thank you my friend!

You probably won’t mind that I can’t go with just one fic for this lol especially because these two happen to be my all-time favorite works by these authors & dear friends: Chasing Dragons by @the-sinking-ship and Blood and Fire by @lqtraintracks. Dragontamer Harry, my heart belongs to you!!! Love love love this trope and both fics check all of my boxes when it comes to mutual pining and fast sexual burn + slow emotional burn. Delicious 🤤

ps: I’m particularly proud of these two recs so I’ll link them in case anyone wants to check it out: Chasing Dragons | Blood and Fire

Dragonssssss!

Wing, teeth and (for the queen of dialogue) fire 💛💛

Thanks for asking sweetcheeks 💛

Wing: share a snippet that you daydreamed about before writing it (or a snippet that you were really looking forward to writing.)

The one that really comes to mind is the epilogue of The Hexley Saga. I knew exactly what I wanted from the epilogue from the moment I wrote the prologue, exactly 2 years ago today!

From my newer stuff, probably this scene, in which Artemis reacquires her burgundy notebook:

“Me? Not Bill? He’s your brother.”

“You’re my best friend,” said Charlie. “And they were yours to begin with. You were going to use one of them.” Artemis swallowed, her shoulders tensing, and Charlie immediately backtracked. “I get it if that’s too weird for you. You were going to use them with Rowan, and I’m not Rowan, I know. If it feels like you shouldn’t use them to write to someone else, it’s fine, I can give it to Bill. Or you can have both of them back to keep, if you like.”

He tried to keep the hope out of his face as Artemis fanned the blank pages in silence. Eventually, after what seemed like an age, she said:

“Will it make you feel less lonely, writing to me?”

“Yeah.” Charlie shrugged. “I never feel lonely when I’m with you.”

Teeth: share a snippet that was difficult for you to nail down/required a lot of revisions.

The whole of The Circle of Khanna was difficult to get right, and took a whole lot of work and research to get right. I think that all hinges on this chapter, which was the one I put off for the longest time.

My newer stuff hasn’t gone through much reworking yet, because most of the WIPs are at the first draft stage. The Hinny WIP has gone through some serious revisions, but you’ve already read that one!!!

Fire: share a snippet with some dialogue you’d like to show off.

This chapter from The Portrait of the Vault has some of my funniest dialogue ever. However, this snippet from the upcoming arc of Beginning of a Symphony also makes me very happy:

“Stop laughing, Ethel!”

“I cannot,” Ethel wheezed. “I cannot stop. Oh, Jimmy. I did not realise you held such strong feelings for Alan.”

“I can see for why you would,” said Selene. “He is a very fine ferret.”

“A beautiful ferret, or so I’ve heard it said.”

“Indeed, I believe I have heard that said, too.”

“Unfortunately, Jim, Alan shan’t be accompanying you to the ball. He prefers to form attachments with his own species. I’d strongly suggest that you do the same,” Ethel told him.

the thing that bothers me about dragon riders is that the dragon absolutely does not have to let you climb on its back. your ability to 'ride' the dragon is entirely dependent on the dragon allowing you to do that. it could fly just fine without you sitting there. which means you are not a dragon rider, not really. that beast is not your pet. you're the dragon's pet. you're its trophy wife.

More three headed dragons this time with some magic hats. Nothing strange about them, well except for those hats.

People really are missing the point of a character like Nettles. Being the a non-Valyrian dragonrider is what makes her different(in every positive definition of that word) and helps to serve a larger purpose in this story.

Valyrian blood is not special. It’s not needed to do great things. No one is special because of what family they happen to be born into.

A non-Valyrian Nettles shows that we are more than the circumstances which we are born into. Our birth, our names, and our very blood does not define us. Our actions are what do. We can overcome so much and rise to become absolutely extraordinary with a little bit of determination, patience, and a dash of help along the way. Nettles exemplifies that to the fullest extent.

She's more than a Black Valryian. She doesn’t have to be Valyrian. She shouldn’t have to be Valyrian.

She’s a survivor. She’s a final girl. She’s a Black low-born girl likely without a drop of dragons blood that tames a wild dragon with patience that killed countless others who had dragons blood. She survived the Dance where others high and low alike fell and perished to become a firewitch to the Burned Men.

Her legacy is immortalized in the history books(and by the Burned Men cause they still worship her) as one of the last(if not the last) dragonrider(s) before Dany all without having any known Valyrian ancestry.

Talon & Tail please!

Talon: share a snippet that tugs at your heartstrings- can be sad or happy!

In terms of already published material, I’m going with my original short story My Jo. You’ve already read this one, so you know why. Fun fact: “my jo” is a Scottish term of endearment that means “my dearest” or “my joy”, which is why I chose this for the title.

In terms of newer stuff, let’s go for this snippet from On This Wild Night…

George drew a shallow, shaky breath. He wrapped his arms in front of himself, and placed one hand in front of his chin, his thumbnail between his teeth. He looked lost. Lost and lonely.

“George, do you want a hug?”

George closed his eyes and nodded his head.

Tail: share a fluffy or cozy snippet.

I’m not so good at the fluffy. Maybe Pour Aimer Et Chérir? Of the stuff you haven’t seen, let’s go with a tiny bit of Symphony:

She sighed, and wrapped her arms around Jim’s torso. He stiffened.

“Um… What… Ethel, what are you doing?”

“I’m embracing you, you ape.”

This is as fluffy as Ethel gets, I’m afraid.

Update: forgot to say 🌻 LOVE YOU 🌻
