Oct. 30th, 2021 12:12 pmman, going down my stats page has made me realize how many of my fics are just "hey. hey. you there. i heard you like.... tropes? //opens trenchcoat//"
dang i need more tropes
- student/teacher sex lessons — (un)sanctified
- animal transformation — stay the night
- enemies to lovers — fly like you're free
- catgirls — catty + acceptable losses
- friends with benefits except too many feelings — slow it up, speed it down
- morning after drunken hook-up — who needs to go to sleep when i got you next to me
- virginity loss on prom night — excuses, excuses
- soulmates — doth protest too much
- crashing the wedding & eloping to vegas — my youth is yours
- arranged marriage — homemaking
dang i need more tropes

Apr. 2nd, 2021 11:34 pmngl modern aus are just so much goddamn fun because of all the different ways there are to translate the characters and their relationships and affiliations and professions.
are daine and miri classmates? clubmates? roommates? is onua a veterinarian? owner of a horse ranch? does numair live in a cozy suburban upper middle class home or a ritzy penthouse? what does the pirate's swoop look like? are people with the gift tech wizards or just whoever?
so many questions and they're all so much fun to think about!!

wolf-speaker cuteness
Mar. 20th, 2021 12:31 amTwo days later, the girl called Daine watched rain fall outside the cave where she and her friends had taken refuge. For someone Brokefang regarded as Pack, she looked quite human. She was five foot five, slim for her fourteen and a half years, with blue-gray eyes the color of the clouds overhead. Her curly brown hair was tightly pinned up, her clothes as practical as her hairstyle: a blue cotton shirt, tan breeches, and soft-soled boots. Around her neck a heavy silver claw hung on a leather thong.okay like i know it’s possible to ‘tightly pin up’ your own hair, but it would be easier and quicker for someone who can see the back of your head to do it, and also we know numair is fussy with hair, and and and—i'm just saying it would be really cute if he'd been the one to pin up her hair okay.

Mar. 4th, 2021 09:24 pm.......reading over old stuff like 'man i was NOT nearly as good as i thought i was' is such a weird feeling.
on one hand: yay! improvement!
on the other hand: akhgsdhgcbv why did i think that was good why did i SAY that was good i wanna diiiie
on the other other hand: honestly my ego has remained roughly the same level of stable and robust for the past 3-4? years or so, so will i look back on my writing now and think 'oh god whyyyyyy' in a year?
on the other other other hand: i'm already thinking 'auhgfajytdvxbvc' at the stuff i wrote last september. (...or actually like legit anything before 'all night i'll riot with you', which was when i started to realize that yes, my otp is indeed allowed to be In Love and no, i'm not breaking any laws in writing them tight as hell, and could from there actually, like, develop their dynamic with significantly less guilt)
progress apparently means admitting you weren't always at peak Best, who knew :')
