For the word ask excerpt game: flame, heat, or lightning

This is my LAST word excerpt ask! I’ve so enjoyed doing these! Thanks so much for the wonderful words! I chose ‘lightning’ and this passage is from the first chapter of my Professors Drarry, Bolts:

His shoes are clicking along the stone at a brisk but unrushed clip when the glimpse in his peripheral vision, just a moment of unruly black hair, makes him first do a double-take—and then halt completely. It’s but a moment’s loss of composure, because it’s only Hagrid and Rolanda Hooch talking animatedly with one another off to the side of the professors’ table. A figment produced by tired eyes too long lingering over his notes with the aid of a dying candle late into the night. Draco exhales and continues on his way. Yet only three steps later, revealed again when Hagrid steps to one side…

Messy jet-black hair. Shine of glasses. Flicker of a lopsided smile.

Lightning bloody bolt.

“Fucking hell.”

i liked your dnp stuff but the fact that you still feel comfortable posting dnf is actually insane. regardless of the details of the situation why would you even want to think about those men they're such creeps.

I'm happy to hear you liked my Dan and Phil stuff!

Unfortunately I think we're just going to disagree on the rest of your message. The fact that you think they're creeps indicates to me that you're being very truthful and you don't care to look into the details of anything, which we differ on. The details of the situation are actually very important to me, and not at all something I want to disregard.

Here's a fun detail: did you know the campaign against Dream, the root of all of this public opinion about him, started on Kiwi Farms? I'm not going to link it because it's a vile site, but if you've never heard of it you can google for verification. It's an alt right hotbed where the users orchestrate mass harassment and doxxing of anyone they don't like. This is not an insubstantial fan defense of Dream - like I said, you can literally google it. You can look at the thread on him, the over five hundred pages of it. You can see them planning how they'll take him down and spread the lies/rumors.

Can you guess why they might not like an openly queer, neurodivergent content creator in the gaming space? Their actual goal was to try and see if they could get him to kill himself. They set out to start enough rumors that would go mainstream and spread enough about him (doxxing him, his family, etc) and it worked, to an extent. He didn't kill himself, but they absolutely succeeded in making people who aren't familiar with him genuinely believe he is an awful person though none of the facts really stand up because his story is just like most other people's. He grew up in a conservative home and had some dodgy posts about politics from when he was fifteen. (Did you know Phil Lester did the same thing?) That's been warped into "Dream is a Trumper Republican." when he's absolutely not. He's not perfect, but he's literally just a human being who has had a growth trajectory that people want to ignore because it doesn't fit the "creepy" box they think he belongs in.

He was in an abusive relationship as a teenager (where he was abused) and he had some messy situationships with other people his age. Most people with a high school/teenage social experience also go through that. But Dream's actions at 17/18/19 are held on a pedestal compared to real life (not online) adult relationships instead of other messy teenagers. None of the allegations about him are true. They came from fans who couldn't provide any proof, and burner accounts. They were all dropped and recanted. But people don't want to hear him clear things up. They don't want to see that people admitted they were lying. It doesn't fit the narrative of creepy.

Anyway - like I said, I'm glad you liked my dnp stuff, and I wish you the best! But I'm just not someone who is going to distill people down into one specific category or drop anyone based on public opinion without looking at the facts myself and coming to my own conclusion.

Inconsistent updates Feb 1

TO BE FAIR, it's been a crazy week irl for me.

On that note here's a bit of a breakdown of what I've done since my last update:

Posted

Title: Sit. Stay. Pairing: DNF Rating: E Tags: Master/Pet, Pet names, Pet Play, Crate Training, Omorashi, Omegaverse Roleplay, Puppy Play, Dom/Sub play, Established relationship, Simulated knotting Summary:

George knows two things to be true: 1) He loves Dream more than anything 2) Dream is a good boy.

Title: Great plans beneath great trees Pairing: Ineffable Husbands (Aziraphale/Crowley) Rating: G Tags: Fluff Summary:

Sometimes thoughts become...too much. Sometimes all we need is someone who makes us laugh.

Title: Let me linger in your pages a little longer Pairing: Ineffable Husbands (Aziraphale/Crowley) Rating: G Tags: Fluff Summary:

Crowley is up to something in the bookshop.

And then here's the other wips I've been working on in the background:

WIP

CIC - Merthur - Wrote a couple hundred words for Chapter 9. Took a little break to do some things for a friend's birthday.

Chokehold - Merthur - Worked on editing more of Part one, so we can start writing up part 2.

Drick Measuring Contest - DNF - Wrote 1k words in two days for this to compensate for all the G-rated stuff I've been writing (*shudder*). With any luck this will be done in the next few days. And then with a beta and posted for my first fandom anniversary~!

And that's all they wrote this week. I've got stuff in the pipeline to replace the bigger works as they get completed. Of course, the biggest hold ups are the longer fics that take time and focus to write. I'm hoping to keep myself in check as the year progresses, in order to keep my focus going for longer.

See y'all next week!

Wednesday Jan 24 WIP Update

Alright, I missed the update last week because I've been sick. That being said, even while sick, I'm trying to get some words in so I stay on top of my shit.

CIC - Merthur - Ch 1-8 posted - Currently sitting at around 31k. Chapter 9 in progress and should be done soon. (Had to revise some stuff for plot reasons) Currently sits at about 2.5k.

Chokehold - Merthur - unposted - Currently sits at about 5k for Part 1. I'm going through and editing pt1 before I start pt2. Anticipating a little under 10k when complete.

Drick measuring contest - DNF - Currently sits at about 3k I think? Possibly 2k. Will be working through to finishing that one before my fandom anniversary

That's it for this week. As always there's an ongoing list of wips I have in an airtable list. I'm considering making it available for viewing but idk. Let me know if you want to see it I guess and I'll work on linking it for the next update.

Oh gosh, I'm a billion years late to this but gosh, thanks so much for the rec!! I feel honoured to be considered among these absolutely stellar creators!!

LCDrarry 2023 - Sitp Recs

I’m a thousand years late to the LCDrarry party as usual, but I’ve had some time to check it out over the weekend and thought I’d do a rec list anyway. Here are my favourites among fic and art works, definitely recommend checking the whole collection here. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did!

Fic:

🗺️ The Breakfast Club by @peachpety (T, 8k)

Draco Malfoy is forced to endure a Saturday detention with four other students, including the Golden Bad Boy himself, Harry Potter. Over the course of the day, and under the watchful eye of Filch, the seemingly disparate group form a budding alliance and discovers that they have a great deal more in common than they thought. And Draco discovers that sometimes, he can not only get what he needs, but he just might also get what he wants.

🪟 Peep Show by @kbrick (E, 10k)

To everyone’s surprise, Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy have become maybe-possibly-sort-of friends. When Harry moves into the building next to Draco's, they become neighbors, too. Actually, Harry can see directly into Draco's flat from his window. And as it turns out, Draco gets up to some interesting things at night.

💎 A Boesky, A Jim Brown, and the biggest Leon Spinks ever by tsundanire (T, 12k)

Harry and his group of friends formulate a rather ambitious plan to re-acquire a rare diamond from the clutches of an old enemy—Theo Nott. Along the way, he's hoping to catch the attention of his ex—Draco Malfoy—who is now dating Theo.

💍 This Life Now by @nerdherderette and S3anchaidh (M, 38k)

This close up, Draco can see the differences that have occurred over the years. Harry's hair is longer, although it's as unruly as ever; his forearms are well-muscled and decorated with ink; and there are small lines by his eyes that look like they would crinkle if he were smiling. Which, at this moment, he most definitely is not. He looks like he's worn the same clothes for three days and just rolled out of bed, yet Harry's so unfairly gorgeous it makes Draco's heart ache. "What do you want, Draco?" Harry asks, his voice resigned. The question snaps Draco out of his reverie. "A divorce," he proclaims as he opens his bag.

🔍 Double Trouble by @multiverse-of-fanfic (E, 57k)

Four years after the War, Draco is stuck in a dead-end job, paper-pushing his life away. Until one day, after a security breach in the Ministry, he receives an offer he can’t refuse. Thrown back into a world he thought he’d left behind, Draco must wrestle with his Death Eater past as well as his inconvenient — and forbidden — feelings for an annoyingly level-headed Harry Potter. Will he manage to come out unscathed like he has most of his life, or will it all come crashing down?

Art:

🐍 Before daybreak by @pato-roldnart (T)

Harry as the master of Dreams helps his little nightmare clear up his concerns about his role in the dreaming. Draco does not have much of a choice in the matter.

💋 History Maker by @okay-sky (G)

He's done it! Harry Potter has caught the snitch, winning the League Cup for the Pride of Portree for the first time in three hundred years! And—what's this? Potter's personal trainer, Draco Malfoy, is running out onto the pitch! And he's—! My goodness, did he just kiss Potter?!

⚔️ no daylight by @personaje-fics (G) - for my prompt!!!

After Draco loses his leg saving a crewmate, Harry teaches him how to fight. He's teaching him how to defeat him, too.

💄 Pretty by @melcarrianna (M)

It’s Pretty Woman, but Drarry.

🌙 When I Close My Eyes by @fantalfart (G)

"Because I like who I am chasing him."

Reboogling for a

CHAPTER 8 UPDATE!!!!!

Let's gooooooo!

Christmas in Camelot - Ch 1

Title: Christmas in Camelot Rating: E Pairings: Merthur, Merlin/Mordred, Arthur/Gwen, (And a bunch of other sprinkled throughout the fic) Warnings: Minor Character Death  Tags:  Holiday fic, Christmas, Hanukkah, Minor Character Death, Grief/mourning, Alternating POV, Eventual smut, Misunderstandings, Tags will update with every chapter, Angst, Fluff, Infidelity (not between the main pairing),  Summary: 

It’s been one year since Merlin had last seen Arthur Pendragon: his best mate, and current CEO of Pendragon industries. One year since that fateful night where Merlin had left a gift on Arthur’s work desk, and opened his heart to Arthur, and was subsequently accosted by said best mate in the best of ways. One whole damned year since they’d gone back to Merlin’s for several rounds of what had to be the best sex anyone has ever had in the history of ever.

One year since Merlin woke up to an empty bed and panicked, saw the spread of news coverage that all said the same thing: some time overnight Arthur became engaged with Gwen, their mutual friend from work. And it’s been one year since his heart shattered into a million pieces.

But after a year away, just traveling the world and trying to find himself (and along the way finding a knack for photography), he gets a call from Gwaine that there’s been a loss in the ’family’ and that it was time to come home. But as secrets unravel like ribbons and new history comes to light, Merlin wonders if perhaps he’d run prematurely. All while navigating his returning feelings for the man who broke his heart and the boyfriend he’s bringing home for Christmas in Camelot.

Notes:

A couple notes before we begin. First and foremost I want to thank Team A(lpha) and Team B(eta) for being so incredible and patient and loving. I am insane and I know this, and yet here we are. So thank you to: Merlioske ( @merlioske​ ), Sunfall ( @fuckyeahsnackables​ ), SorceressofDragons, and Jiang for all your help.

Next, it’s important to note WHO this gift is for and WHY I am gifting them things. V ( @zaharya​ ) and Harley ( @lyskari​ ) are…basically the best people in existence. Without them I probably would still have insane writer’s block and would be stuck on 0 words this year. Instead, they’ve brought me into their fold, and reminded me of the important things in life. It’s been less than a year and I feel like I’ve known them my whole life, and so when I considered what to do for Christmas, nothing less than this crazy, cheesy, angsty but DEFINITELY happy ending romance was going to be enough.

They were the ones who brought me into the Merlin fandom (I love to say they dragged me kicking and screaming but it would be the furthest thing from the truth) and so for that it seems poignant that this story is Arthur and Merlin's—at times, frustrating—love story.

I hope you all enjoy <3

ok i saw this and immediatelly thought "there is no way I can pull this off this is something DESIGNED for @pseudosequel " and I was abt to start typing that as a response but then I got???? possessed I guess??????? anyway here lmao i just wrote it in one sitting and i AINT reading it back so if theres mistakes sorry deal with it

Dream's fingers are in George's mouth.

He's not entirely sure how he has found himself in this situation, breathing shallow, hip pressed to the inside of George's left thigh.

He retraces his steps.

George asked him to floss his teeth for him, that's one. Dream laughed, and said no, of course, that's two. Then, somewhere between then and right now, some kind of charm wrapped around George's alluring words, crawled underneath Dream's skin, seeped deep into his brain and took complete control of his actions. Three.

And now Dream's fingers are in George's mouth. Four.

It's not like it's that out of character for him, not really. Most of the time George asks for something, he gets it. Granted, most of the time it doesn't end up with them in close proximity, with Dream's fingers in George's mouth.

"This is so gross," he comments, the sentiment being there only in theory. It should be gross. It would be gross if it was anyone else.

George only exhales from his nose, which is tame as far as George-responses go. It probably has to do with the fact that his mouth is occupied, but Dream tunes into his expression, anyway, as he continues going accross the row of George's teeth.

George's eyes are unfocused, looking into space at nothing in particular, eyelids half closed. There is a rosiness to his cheeks that wasn't there before, too, and a slackness in his jaw, that allows his mouth to open more as Dream's finger's venture further.

It's not how George usually is, Dream concludes. There's no snarky eye rolls at Dream's comment, no trying to bite Dream's fingers, no playful kicking in the shin.

"There's so much gunk here," he tries again, and just as before it's mostly a lying tease. "Do you even brush your teeth?"

A response comes in the form of a hum this time. The sound vibrates through Dream's fingertips. Dream clears his throat and shuffles his weight from one leg to another, pressing his other hip to George's other thigh.

They're in Dream's bathroom, the door to Dream's bedroom is open, the AC in the room turned on. Even then, the chill of cold he was feeling earlier transitions into a warmth that spreads somewhere from his core.

Dream clears his throat, carefully taking his fingers out of George's mouth to exchange the piece of floss for a new one, and the silence hangs heavy in this newfound atmosphere. George's mouth is closed again by the time Dream has a new piece of floss in his hands.

"Open up," he asks, a slight gravel to his voice.

George looks straight at him from under his eyelashes and opens his mouth, tongue sticking out slightly.

"Jesus," it comes out against Dream's will, pair in pair with a heavy exhale. George doesn't react to his little mess up, just continues his staredown. Dream swallows. "Tongue in, George," he touches it, in what's supposed to be a playful poke, but turns more into delicately pushing the tongue back into George's mouth.

"Okay. Alright, back to business," he's talking mostly to himself now, looking at how George's responses so far has been hums and breaths. He tightens the string against his fingers, and gets back at it.

Everything is distracting. George's hot breath against his skin, the way George's tongue gets in the way now and again, the various miniscule sounds George's mouth and throat make in the otherwise dead silent bathroom. Dream is definitely failing at successfully flossing George's teeth.

George doesn't seem to care, though. George looks out of it. George seems as if his mind is swimming somewhere else. George is...

He pauses what his fingers are doing for a second, as he stares down at George's lap, where he just fleetingly caught a sight of what, upon further examination, definitely looks like the begining of a tent forming in his pants.

George is hard. Dream's fingers are in George's mouth, and George is hard.

He doesn't have time to dwell on his new discovery, as George's tongue prods at his fingers, George making an impatient sound, prompting Dream to continue.

So Dream, doumbfounded and a little bit overwhelmed, pretends that he hasn't noticed anything and casually continues to floss George's teeth.

Well, tries to. He doesn't think he could remain casual in this situation no matter how hard he tries.

Because every little breath, every litte sound, every time George flutters his eyes closed just a second too long to be considered blinking, Dream can't help but glance down. And each time the surprise and something else hit him just as hard.

"Almost done," he murmurs, noting how rough his own voice sounds again. Then, in a moment of insanity, he swipes his finger delicately accros George's gums, all the way to the back of his mouth, where he lays it accross his tongue for a moment.

George exhales, deep.

Dream finally, reluctantly acknowledges his own hardness in his mind.

And once he starts, he can't stop. As his finger rests on George's tongue, he can't help but think what it would feel like to put it deeper, to have another one join in, to watch as George wraps his mouth around two of his fingers.

He imagines his cock resting there instead, George's mouth open, as he begs with his desperate eyes for Dream to let him suck him off, as Dream doesn't let him at first, just taunting him with the idea, pre cum leaving small droplets at the back of George's tongue-

"Okay all done!" Dream sputters out in a panic, taking a step away from George before he does something stupid like press his hips into George's crotch. He tosses the floss away, walking up to the sink as he avoids eye-contact with George, washing his hands diligently for a full minute.

George eventually jumps off of the counter, but doesn't take any steps to leave the bathroom. Dream turns to him hesitantly, a joke readied on his lips.

It doesn't have a chance to be said. George is looking up at him with an aura of expectation, a look Dream has seen a few times before.

Dream could not fulfill that expectation when they were roomed together in Antarctica. He could not fulfil that expectation when his fingers tightened the clasp of his chain around George's neck.

And, even with a stomach heavy with guilt, he knows he cannot fulfil that expectation now, either.

"I'm going to have a nap," Dream says, ignoring the way George sighs in clear disapointment.

When George leves, Dream closes his bedroom door, lies down in his bed, shoves a hand into his boxers and fails hard at trying not to think about the feeling of George's tongue and teeth against his fingers.

Weekly progress report

Just to stay on top of everything, here's an update on where I'm at so far.

Chapter 8 of CiC has been combed through by my wonderful beta and I'll be reviewing notes and making changes probably tomorrow.

Chapter 9 of CiC has begun, we're in the early parts so it might take a few days before it hits beta stage.

And we've begun revising the outline and general plot to one of my OLDEST wips. With any luck, you'll be seeing more of that, and possibly some snippets, in the near future.

I have a DNF fic that's in editing stages, but because of the backlash I've seen a number of authors face recently, I'm most likely going to post it either privately or anonymously. The subject matter is incredibly Explicit, and fairly kinky, but we'll see what happens I suppose.

That's it for now! I'm still working on a full schedule, but I think I'd like to start doing progress reports on Mondays and Fridays if I can, as this will leave Wednesdays for snippets.

Cheers!

Progress report

Chapter 8 of CIC is COMPLETE! It's with my wonderful beta now, which means it's time to work through chapter 9.

We're only ramping up the sexual tension from here because this is a year of change. A few months ago they would have just straight up been doing the deed by now but no. We're resolving to actually writing mature characters doing mature things, like pining. SO with all that said, I'll have ch 8 out to y'all soon!

Christmas In Camelot Ch8 Snippet

Gwen had shifted her living room about, adding extra pillows and blankets around the room to make it extra cozy. There were two couches available for claiming, along with one armchair, but the rest of the space was organized to fill the voids between in an almost semi-circle facing the blank wall.

Lance had a projector and screen they used for special occasions just like this which was absolutely lovely and truly gave a magical feel to the whole movie night.

What Arthur hadn’t accounted for was the fact that there were a lot more couples this time around than there had ever been in the past.

Gwaine, the last bastard standing, was stuck flicking off all the lights as the paired up couples snuggled up on various close spaces. That Merlin had chosen the tight space between Arthur and the side arm of the couch was thrilling and equally terrifying.

Internally, Arthur was screaming. Externally, he was probably developing a bit of a sweat and maybe some clammy hands. This close, he could smell the soap still lingering on Merlin’s skin, and the delectable cologne he must have dabbed on before coming over. The thought that Merlin might have done that on purpose, like prepping for a date, filled Arthur with a feeling he could only describe as ‘rumbly like a lion’s purr’.

A path for 2024

Okay so it's been a while since I've been genuinely active here, and just in general. 2023 was a crazy year for me, with lots of things happening in my personal life that kept me busy and away from the internet (for the most part).

That isn't to say I didn't get *any* writing in, because very obviously I did. But rather, I didn't devote nearly as much time to it as I used to. And that's okay! Sometimes we just need that. Gotta reset the brain with some time away and what not.

But I come back with a...somewhat fresh—albeit tired—mind, with a singular goal in mind.

My goal for 2024 is to finish most, if not ALL of my WIPS.

"That seems far too lofty a goal for someone with as little spare time, and even less attention span as you, Jay..." You might be saying to yourself, and I would agree. Except I have a plan!

See, I've spent the last few years cultivating some very fantastic relationships. People who've guided my writing, my life, my very soul in some ways. These specific people have kept me from signing up for fests this past year (with exactly one exception, but it wasn't my fault that one fell through.) and they've taught me a lot about writing, story building, world building, and so much more than I ever thought possible.

So, I have a team of people all out there keeping me on track. I have people who are willing to listen to me yammer about a plot problem and throw out some ideas to sort me out. I have people. And that's more than enough.

But that's not all!

I have a very specific list of wips I plan on focusing all my attention and devotion to. This list is limited to three fics at any given time so as not to feel overwhelming when I'm in the thick of it. As I cross one fic off the list, I'll move on to the next.

Some of these fics are shorter (like finishing up and posting the DNF omorashi fic), and some might be longer (like Christmas in Camelot, and some of these you might not even know I've been working on—or you've heard rumours (Like my big Drarry project).

In any case, I'll try to keep everyone as updated as possible as to the progress, not just for general and constant content, but also as a way to actually hold myself accountable. Because, as they say:

With great ability comes great accountability. -Jefferson Davis

So that's my plan, or at least the parts I'm willing to share so far. Keep a weather eye on the page for updates, news, and maybe little snippets of content. Before you know it, I'll have lots of little, medium, and epic sized projects coming out of the woodwork.

Thanks for sticking with me so far on this journey, and welcome to the new friends I'll hopefully make a long the way.

Jay
