🧡?

🧡: are there any colors you can’t stand?

Y’know, I *really* didn’t expect this to be such a hard question ahaha. I like most colors!

Neon yellow, maybe? Or an overly saturated chartreuse (which is sort of a bummer, bc I love the word!)

ask me things!

Lily Of The Valley

This is the poison of giving too much. You feel yourself emptying out, dizzying, discoloring-- until you fear you will fade entirely and wither away. You have always had to give. You never had a choice before. They pluck your flowers for their beauty, they trample your leaves carelessly, they pull out your roots by the fistful and berate you for daring to grow. And now that you have a grove to spread out in, your rhizomes tangle and curl in on themselves. When cruelty is all you've ever known, thriving seems impossible. But the answer is not to make yourself small and offer every lovely thing you are to the world in the hopes it will have mercy on you. The answer is to let yourself dare to thrive for thriving's sake, to grow in the wild ways you wish to-- and to do that for yourself for once.  

(top right)  Hiyam Vinke (she/her), lead singer of the Vespas for @/infamous-if

Doll's Eyes (hmmm -- she got oleander too, a mix would be best.)

This is the poison of unchecked vices. You slip into hallucinations. You are wracked with convulsions. The delirium threatens to overwhelm you. What are you running from? You look in every direction, wild-eyed at every turn, seeking some reprieve from what torments you. Each vice brings new consequences, and the price of escape seems too great, and yet you cannot seem to face things head on. If you aren't running from yourself, I hope you find a true way to freedom soon. And if you are running from yourself, perhaps you would do well to realize your pain is not something you can simply escape by avoidance. You deserve healing just as much as the ones you love. Someday, soon I hope, you will know this and feel it and reach inward to grant yourself all the kindnesses you offer others. That is the only true way to peace for ones like us. Oh, and if the pain of it seems too great? I hope that you realize you don't have to do it alone.  

(bottom left)  Emile Ryan (they/them), one of my Keepers from @/keeperofthesunandmoon

Belladonna

This is the poison of falling in love. You taste it and your heart beats fast. Your eyes dilate, you fall into deep delirium. You may be a bit dramatic and impulsive, and it gets you into trouble sometimes, but you just can't help yourself. It's in your blood. You love because it is the truest beauty you've found in this harsh world. Even when it's hurt you before, when it's poisoned you, you still find a way. They may call you naive for still believing in it, or vain for making yourself and your surroundings so meticulously lovely. But to love like this is brave and noble, and I hope you find the beauty you seek. Chances are, it's within and all around you already, if you know where to look.

(bottom right)  Kendis Crawford-Louel (she/they), in way too many IFs.

Hemlock (hmmmmmmm ... they also got oleander the first time)

This is the poison of intense fear. Your body trembles, your flesh burns. Your limbs won't respond to you. You convulse. You can't seem to control the fear. It seems that it has always lived within you. You hesitate, you agonize, and that breeds regret. Sometimes it threatens to overwhelm you, and that frightens you more than anything. But panic is survival mode in overdrive, and something within you knows you must live. Creation seems to be the only balm for you. Perhaps you survive so stubbornly because you have stories that must be told, songs that must be sung. Soothe your stage fright. The path from surviving to thriving is having a good garden to grow in. And you can't do that completely alone.

Tidbit Tuesday

Thank you for the tags @dwead-piwate-meggers @evilbunnyking @ejunkiet . So excited to read your twc fanfic again.

A few stories on the back burner. Now that I’ve read through book 3, I’ve been thinking about them again. No book 3 spoilers.

~

Surina looks towards him, shoulder resting at his arm, head tilted and too large grin on her face. It’s a bit silly, the situation, sitting in the center of her couch, pressed together. A used keyboard between them, one found at the Wayhaven rummage sale which was held one saturday in conjunction with the farmer’s market.

Tonight, she tells Nate of a memory, as her fingers move, working together to create some sort of melody. Something resembling the song played inside the Wayhaven Community Chapel.

“On Saturdays, I’d take walks down by the church and even though I’ve not ever been religious, I’d stop and linger, thirty or forty five minutes after everyone walked inside. I don’t know what it was, or why I’d stayed there, but this song always filled me with hope, and put me in this whole state of calm.”

The first time, she doesn’t note how he winces. Because she winces, as well, that C sharp note, just so sharp.

The second time, she notes how the night sky lights up, brighter than mid-day and she counts. One slow note, the second note lagging behind, and the third just a bit too quickly. And with the crack of lightning, she hits the wrong key again, loud and now flat. He winces again.

But now his hands are relaxed, one on her knee, the other no longer gripping the couch pillow. And there’s a curl at the right side of his mouth, Nate is smiling.

W.I.P Weekend

I come with another snippet of my current untitled W.I.P., a Redactedverse fic that sees the pack undergo an unexpected magical ritual, resulting in some cores swapping. (Catch the other snippets I’ve released here, here, here, here, and here, if you are interested.) I’ve been working on this fic for awhile, and while it is still not done, I’m happy to be able to say I’m starting to see an end in sight. So far, the fic has surpassed 50K words, making it my longest Redactedverse fic to date. To celebrate that progress, I thought I’d share a bit more with you today. I’ll keep working at the draft, and I look forward to whenever I’m finally able to share the full story with you all!

Tagging anyone who would like to share a WIP of any type, plus eight talented friends (one for each paragraph I shared) @miyowmiyow, @autisticempathydaemon, @pinksparkl, @falkea, @belovedbow, @dwead-piwate-meggers, @artbykays, and @starlitangels. (No pressure to participate, as always.)

Darling paced back and forth across the large, cavernous room, holding their phone a few inches away from their ear. A barrage of swear words and seething anger spilled out from the phone speaker. 

“Okay, yes, Damien, I understand you’re upset, but you’re acting like I did this to Hux on purpose,” Darling ground out, just about fed up with the temperamental fire-elemental on the other end of the call. 

More furious phrases poured out of the phone. Darling lazily let their wrist bend so that the phone moved away from their ear. 

“Feel better?” they placated once Damien quieted again. Darling pressed their lips into a thin line. “Look, I don’t know what else to tell you. We’re doing our best to figure out what happened and how to reverse it. Just hang tight and keep calm.” They paused, chewing on their lower lip. As fun as it was to push Damien’s buttons, Darling knew that the man was well within his rights to lose his temper with them, if not because of his own confusion, then for his worry for Hux. “How’s Huxley doing?”

The anger evaporated from Damien’s voice. <em>“He’s doing okay, I think. Trying to play it cool, but…”</em> Darling heard him expel a tired sigh. <em>”I know he’s freaked out of his mind, and disoriented as hell. To be cut off from his element, I… I can’t articulate how truly painful that is for an elemental, especially one as strongly connected to his magic as Hux. It’s lik-”</em> Damien sputtered. <em>”Well, actually, maybe you can relate. Sorry,”</em> he muttered, embarrassed at his faux pas. <em>”You must be going through the same thing. H-How are you dealing with it all?”</em>

Darling went rigid, shifting their weight from foot to foot as they rolled their ankles inwards, one after the other. “I’m hanging in there,” they answered in a monotone, leaning against the wall. “Um, I gotta go, Damien. Don’t hesitate to call for anything with Hux, and I’ll keep you updated with anything we find out.” They scraped their nails against the wall, yearning to feel their claws once again. “We’ll fix this, I promise. Don’t let Hux get too comfy with my wolf. This’ll be fixed in no time.” 

After Damien said goodbye, Darling hung up the phone. On the other side of the room, Sweetheart was engrossed in their own phone conversation. 

“Geordi, please, hold it together,” Sweetheart sternly suggested. “This is an unprecedented situation for all of us. Your partner is going to need you to be strong while I work with the necessary resources to undo whatever the fuck was done.”

angel is a techie. comp sci major turned data scientist, who got most of their way through a phd in astrophysics before the system chewed them out, hard. they have a brain for creative problem solving and is a genius with languages - computer and otherwise - but little common sense hehe

babe works for an agency in the city. long hours, little gain - and before they met asher, they were dealing with depression, possibly related to a demon. asher is the sweetness they’ve been needing in their life, the person who tells them its okay to switch off and take a break. they’re hard of hearing and wear cochlear implants following an accident in their youth that also left them with scars. they’re self-conscious about those scars.

sweetheart our resident workaholic stealth. they’ve got something to prove, the only empowered individual in their family to have ever achieved full certification. ngl a lot of my hc for them come from @romirola​ - they do yoga and practice meditation, to help manage the stress of their work. also kinky kinky sex.

lovely was a film student, working on their capstone project on the decay of urban centers when they met Vincent. they never finished the degree, and to be honest, they never looked back either. they’re life has changed and become something entirely new, and they don’t regret it.

darlin is very, very good at boardgames. catan champion, okay.

+ 1: sunshine has a facial scar that draws back into their hairline from the accident. also, a mullet. it took them a long time to reach the point where they felt comfortable to say I love you back. elliot has some very geeky tattoos.

Get to Know Me - Redacted Listener Edition

Thank you to the lovely @dwead-piwate-meggers for tagging me to do this! ♡

Favorite Listener Character? Freelancer and Lovely

│FL was my first listener ever, and I just love their character development overtime. And I just feel such an attachment to Lovely for some reason, like they're just so lovable and you just find yourself constantly rooting for them. I also have to mention Sunshine and Sweetheart who I also adore.

Listener Character I Relate the Most To? Honey and Lovely

│My best friend is basically Guy minus the romantic attraction lol, so I can relate to Honey in having to (lovingly) put up with an absolute ball of chaos. And with Lovely, I think I relate to them the most on a personal level, being sort of a lost young adult, and I just really see them as a kindred spirit (as weird as that may sound to say about a fictional character lol).

Favorite Listener Character to Write For/Read About?

│Hmmm. I would say for me, writing for Lovely is the easiest because I just have so many ideas for them. But as for reading, tbh my favorite fics are when authors sort of include several of the characters in ways they wouldn’t usually interact in canon; like my worlds are colliding lol.

I Want Their Life: Freelancer

│Apparently I don't have as much self preservation as Meg lmfao, because I just wanna be apart of the D.A.M.N crew SO BAD. Like what can I say, I just love them with my whole heart and soul. Would I sustain permanent emotional damage from seeing someone I know die in front of me and having to comfort my partner through excruciating emotional pain? Sure, but I would get to hug Huxley whenever I want, play mini golf with Damien, play DnD with Lasko, bake with Caelum and wake up next to Gavin. I would say that's a fair trade.

I Have Their Life: Baby or Honey?

| Uhmmmm idk, my life isn't cool enough to be any of theirs lol. Maybe Ollie's Babe because its relatively normal? But like I said, I do have my own version of Guy so maybe Honey, too.

I Want Their Powers: Sweetheart

│Biiiiitch I would absolutely love to be a stealth! As a generally quiet person who has ✨ anxiety✨ being able to just cloak and sneak around without being seen is literally my dream lol.

Comfort Listener Character? Lovely and Freelancer

│Lol are we surprised? Vincent and Gavin are absolutely my comfort characters, I always listen to Gavin's comfort videos when I'm having a bad day, and Vincent is definitely my go to for sleep aids and encouragement audios. I just feel very at home when I listen to them.

Ummmm this took forever and got really long lmao, so thank you for making it through the whole thing if you did lol <33

Tid-Bit Tuesday!

I was tagged by @dwead-piwate-meggers!!

Tagging @friendlyfaded 💙

This is… not a tid-bit. This is kind of a lot. I hope that’s okay, haha. I’m sorry it’s so late in the day ;-;

Here’s another excerpt from the Imperium Huxley fic I’ve been working on! Warning for language, but that’s about it, I think.

What Huxley notices immediately afterward, though, is the unempowered human beside him. The same one as before. Prince Damien keeps them close to him the entire time, even as he says all the words and makes all the oaths that don’t actually mean a single goddamn thing. He keeps their hand secure, caught in his own throughout the ceremony.

Who are they? With an empire built entirely on the glory of the empowered, what kind of prince would—

He watches with furrowed brows as the circlet is removed from the almost-king’s head, only to be replaced with a crown made up of golden leaves: gleaming, tiny blades. Razor-sharp. Made for splitting skin. And bloodletting.

It looks like the Imperium has a ruler once more.

King-Imperial Damien makes a grand speech. It’s pretty, each word surely chosen with care as he promises nothing but bringing more power to his empire—his people. As if they’ll ever see a single drop of it. Huxley chews in his bottom lip and has to admit that his words are persuasive, despite being utter bullshit. The King-Imperial is good at what he does, and much of the duties of royalty happen to include lying.

See, there’s that begrudging respect. Even if the mystery unempowered human, whose hold King-Imperial Damien only let go of to be crowned, is burning a hole in him. It just doesn’t make sense.

Huxley doesn’t pretend to be some sort of brilliant genius, but even he can see that having them there can’t be a good idea. Whatever their purpose—and they must have one, because why else would they be standing there—it must be important. Are they an advisor? But no, that doesn’t make sense either. Why would an advisor be unempowered?

It isn't until the King-Imperial nears the end of his speech that he decides to finally let the mystery drop. He looks behind him to hold his hand out and gestures for them to step forward. The human does, after a second of hesitation. They place their hand in his own.

“All of these I promise to do, for the people my mother loved so dearly, whom she taught me to love. We are going to do incredible things—for the glory of the Imperium,” he says. “Under my rule, her work—my mother’s work—will not go to waste. With my partner at my side, the Consort to the King-Imperial, I assure you there is nothing I cannot do for this empire.”

There’s applause, and cheer, and music coming from somewhere out of shot of the camera, and then that’s it. It’s over. People who managed to find seats rise from them to stretch and talk almost themselves, and Huxley sees it as a job completed, so he slips out the door.

Consort to the King-Imperial.

Really. That’s it? That’s why the King-Imperial is keeping an unempowered human around like a dog on a leash? God, they’re basically a fuck buddy. Dripping in jewels and silks perhaps, but when you get down to it, when you trim the fat and cut down to the bone—that’s all they are. Someone to keep the royal bed warm when he’s away.

It’s a miracle that the ground doesn’t quiver underfoot with each step Huxley takes. Disgust curdles in his stomach, like milk left out in the sun. Between Moore and his Freelancer and their parasitic incubus, and now this…

The late Queen-Imperial is surely rolling in her extravagant grave. Her empire is doomed to fall apart at the seams—and at the hand of her own son, no less.

Nine People You Want To Get To Know Better

Thank you for the tag @sustainably-du-mortain and @evilbunnyking

Last Song: Okay, so I’m really more of a passive music listener - I’ve been spending a lot of time getting work done at coffee shops so I am going to very embarrassingly admit - Your Body Is A Wonderland by John Mayer. Not only will it not leave me, but it just is such an N Sewell song but also not an N Sewell in b3/hopefully in b4 song

Currently Watching: Started watching Enola Holmes - need to go back and finish it and then the sequel. Also, started a Lebanese series called Ala Al Hilwa Wa Al Morra (A Sweet and Bitter) about a successful wedding planner who has been asked to plan her boss’ daughters wedding and finds out that the groom is the man who left her at the altar five years prior

Currently Reading: Just finished A Lady For A Duke (highly recommend) and started The Heiress Hunt (meh on it so far but we will see!) - on deck are Devil In Winter (really looking forward to it! Third in the Wallflower series and I loved the first two!), The Ten Thousand Doors of January (for my reading challenge), and The Lady Gets Lucky (second in the series after Heiress Hunt).

Listening to The Girl On the Train

Finishing the F route for twc b3 then I’ll do a full run of the M route then LT route!

Current Obsession: Wayhaven, of course. Nate and Nat Sewell, of course.
