So does the poison make the victims permadead…or is it part of a ritual that sends their souls to the city on Ruidis — into the red storm, as Imogen sees in her dreams — and the souls cannot be called back to Exandria, nor found in an afterlife plane, because everything on Ruidis is trapped behind a divine gate?

Been workshopping an assortment of critter designs over the weeks. If you’d like to see more sketches like these, as well details on their ecology, you can find them on my Patreon.

If not, never fear, I’ll still be making polished posts and answering the occasional ask. (If you want to talk to me more directly, I am far more active on my member discord, however!)

Love how the Transformers fandom created the concept of seeker trines. We took Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker, gave them very distinct personalities, and assigned them a very complex emotional bond. The actual nature of that bond varies depending on who you ask, but everyone agrees it is spark-deep and very special.

We did all of this for three characters that probably only exist because some suits at Hasbro (or Takara-Tomy) in the 80s were like hmmmmmmmm how do we sell the same toy three times and get 3x the profit out of one character design

Personally, I’d love it if Buck came out Mickey Milkovich style (minus Terry).

Just grabs the mic at the wedding and says “Excuse me. I’d just like everyone here to know, I’m fucking bisexual.”

And then nobody cares and continues going about their lives.

(I don’t actually want this to be canon just a funny thought).

Hope it's not untoward to just send a post, curious to what you make of this! Is the black goo.......boogers?

i'm gonna be real, i don't think very much of sneezing.png right now, hence why i didn't make note of it anywhere. all of my filenames when it comes to art are either very jokey or just outright keysmashes, so i wouldn't be surprised if the thought process was literally just "oh man this looks sick. like literally. haha the website sneezed." but as always, if i turn out to be wrong later on and it actually is important then like, shame on me.

HOWEVER. while i don't think the black ooze is literal snot, i would also not be surprised if it's meant to be a visual shorthand for death, disease, decay - all that fun stuff. see: this section of jacob geller's video on haunted houses where he brings up a passage from the book of leviticus talking about what to do when your house gets leprosy, a.k.a. black mold.

Need something to do tonight? Try my stream!

We're taking another bold step outside the public domain on Paper Cuts tonight, this time with Marion G. Harmon's Wearing the Cape!

I absolutely loved this book from the first time I read it in high school, it's got an absolutely fascinating take on superheroes and how they'll enmesh with celebrity culture in a world not unlike the one we knew then. The series at large poses some fascinating questions about duty, legacy, and just what it means for these cities to court powerful superteams, and this first book in particular focuses on the difficulty of "coming out" into hero society.

Want to hear more? Need specifics on some of what I pointed out there? Come drop by tonight, 8pm pacific time, and I'll be reading it aloud, live!

(That's April 5th, 8pm pacific, and if you miss it, there'll be a VOD, too!)

And if you want to grab the book to read along, you can find it here:

Last but not least, if you like the sound of a live audiobook, go check out the podcast, available in your favorite podcatcher! I'd suggest looking for titles that sound interesting, I name the first episode of each book after the title!

Lightning never strikes in the same place twice. Except when it does.

WIP Wednesday (10/19/22)

Heyyyyy, look at me posting this on an actual Wednesday!

Carrying a small fire extinguisher slung across her back like a quiver, Gwen led the way out of the South Ken station into the posh lanes and sidestreets. The idyllic spaces were haggard now; the foliage in the garden squares bore scorch marks, and few people ventured out as dusk approached. Shoulders hunched within their flame-retardant coats, they made their way north toward Exhibition Road.

NCT Dream and soft-launching you.

Mark Lee ; dropping hints

I feel like Mark would be the type to drop hints by explicit saying it, probably on interviews or fancalls or fansigns. For example, when someone asked if there's anything that makes him happy lately, he'll remind him of you, so he'll smile and just tell them how his day went by with you. Of course, he doesn't mention your name, he goes something like, "Yesterday I went to a new restaurant with someone, it was nice and I enjoyed the dinner." 

Huang Renjun ; gifts!

Renjun would soft-launch you by using gifts! Those kpop idols that people suspect that are dating because of matching outfits? that's Renjun. He'll be the type to show the gifts on bubble or weverse, without any context, and then the next day, you'll post it on your private account. Sometimes it goes the other way around, like you giving him gift and he'll proudly post it on his social media. 

Lee Jeno ; bubble messages

I feel like Jeno's going to soft-launch you through bubbles. He'll type something like, "Please don't get sick~" when he learned that you're sick. Or something like "Goodluck today! You can do it!" when it's your exam day that day. If it was too vague for the fans, he'll probably be more specific that his fans would think that he's directly talking to someone. And sometimes he just goes, "Today was a great day, I enjoyed it with someone I love. (.◜◡◝)"

Lee Donghyuck ; live

Haechan would probably be shameless to use instagram or weverse live to soft-launch you. He'll have it where he only shows himself BUT it's obvious that he's talking to someone behind the camera. You could only whisper to him and he probably would tease you by asking you to say it louder. Fans will be quick to point out how he's smiling fondly and how his eyes never left you even though he's live. 

Na Jaemin ; vlog

It started with a solo vlog of Jaemin --- or that's what people assumed, because there's a part where someone's holding the camera for Jaemin and while the voice of the holder is muted, Jaemin is having a casual conversation with them! and it seems like he's all giggly and flirty with them. Jaemin also couldn't help but slip out a bit of pet names like, "Babe" or "baby" although fans are speculating that it's his girlfriend who's behind the camera, they still don't want to assume. 

Zhong Chenle ; photo silhouettes

Chenle would probably post silhouettes of you! Silhouettes that aren't obvious of your identity but at the same time, tells the fans that he's with someone! Sometimes it could be a body part, like the back of your jacket but totally zoomed in or maybe your shoes. The most not-so-subtle hint that he did was your hand petting Daegal because it was obvious that it's a girl who's petting her because of your dainty hands and manicures.

Park Jisung ; instagram stories

Jisung is the king of soft-launching you. LIKE he's just gonna drop hints that he's dating someone. Like him posting an instagram story and it looks like he's going out on a date, with the flowers and gifts and the fans will just see that his next photo is a photo of food but there's two plates, which means he's with someone! and to add to that, there's a heart emoji on the photo!

We've got a new book planned for Paper Cuts later this week, and it's a very exciting one! This tale, joining us by author permission, is one that I've been looking forward to since the moment I heard we can do it!

I'm absolutely ecstatic to be able to share this story with you all!
