Sitting here doing math on just how many polls I can get away with each week...

Optimal would be 3 where I just link the compiled post to my latest fic upload (hopefully the 24th) but I don't really wanna spam you guys.

But at the same time that way you guys get like maximum choice.

You can pick your fav in 3 polls rather than basically picking who you want a centric fic for.

Idk I'll work it out. Probably. Maybe.

Epilogue is out! Enjoy <33

[dorylinae-supremacy]

I'm kinda considering some kind of 'build a fic' thing for December as a treat. My biggest hurdle at the moment is only being able to have one poll per post but the general vibe is this

Imagine the bullet points are a poll

Techno Centric | Hurt / Comfort | 🦋👑🪄✨

Phil Centric | Soulmate Marks | ❄️🐻‍❄️🍨⛄

Tommy Centric | Misunderstandings | 🎓🎬📓🎹

Kristin Centric | Sickfic | 🐚🐬🌊🫧

Wilbur Centric | Bodyswap | 🧟‍♂️😷💊🪓

The absolute ideal state would be be having like 4 different polls per post for like maximum choice range but tumblr is shit so thats not an option.

Maybe I'd take like emoji combos / tropes from the previous weeks fic / poll comments for you guys to have more control or whatever. I'd iron it out.

The only real rule I can think of would be that the emojis have to invoke something and not just be completely random. There has to be some vague kind of theme that can be ascertained.

I don't think I'll be up for midnight but you should be getting an upload either when I wake up or if I do happen to be up around 1am!

Superstition sequel bullet point list as promised! It adds up to like 1K I think so enjoy!

This is vaguely what a lot of my fics look like behind the scenes before I write something properly so enjoy that peek into my fresh hell.

No specific TW's in this really just talks of curses, some emotional hurt and light betrayal. Nothing uncommon. Also everyone but Tech is dark here but its more hinted at for Wil and Tommy than shown.

Also also Tommy is Kristin and Phils baby they probably had a bit after officially adopting Techno. Unrelated context but he's here too because I'm forcing myself into writing more.

Lovely family dinner

Techs older now

Like maybe 17 or something. I'm bad with ages

Hes angsty and full of dread and thats what matters

Making Wil like 18 or 19

Either way they’re all eating and Phil maybe brings up techs plans for the future (as in asking about them)

Saying they’re happy to wait as long as he needs to choose something but they’re a little worried

Maybe joking that they won’t always be here to guide him

Tech kinda slumping further back in his seat and not really being responsive

Wil maybe bringing up war stuff and saying he seems to like that

Maybe gently nudging tech towards that

Tech grumbling a bit about it

Tommy maybe weighing in and maybe teasing him 

Kristin spotting he’s not really enjoying it and telling the others to lay off, he’ll figure out his stuff in his own time

Tommy maybe pushing and asking why he won’t just pick 

Tech maybe snapping and saying it doesn’t matter since he’ll have to leave the kingdom anyway

Room going silent

Phil asking what he means by that

Tech just repeating that he’s gonna have to leave and never return anyway so it doesn’t matter what he does

Internal hurt where he wants to help and stay but he can’t because of The Curse

Kristin trying to ask more and Tech saying that he’s cursed and they don’t have to be soft about it anymore

Silence

Phil putting his stuff down and calmly asking Wil and Tommy to continue dinner while they talk to tech in the hallway

Tech getting up and the chair scraping, maybe even falling over

Kristin trying to say that the curse is cured or whatever but tech saying she doesn’t have to lie to him anymore

Phil being quiet and just kinda observing

Tech ranting that he knows he’s still cursed and they only did that to try help him mentally but he’s not their real kid like Tommy and Wil are so they don’t have to worry anymore 

He’s old enough to deal with it on his own and when he’s 18 he’ll leave

Kristin asking why he’d ever leave them and guilting him

It working

Tech saying that they’re right from earlier, they won’t be here forever and that’s the problem. When Kristin can’t kiss the curse away or do whatever she was doing to cure it, it’ll come back and hurt everyone else

So he’ll just leave 

Maybe saying he’ll write letters or something and that it’s for the best

Kristin starting to reply

Phil cutting her off and saying maybe it’s time for the truth, still very calm

Kristin arguing and saying that they need to keep it hidden

Phil pointing at tech and saying that keeping it hidden has caused all this mess so they might as well just come clean and deal with the fallout

Kristin not being happy but not arguing

“The curse didn’t kill your parents, Techno”

“I’m not a kid anymore you don’t have to lie-“

“I’m not lying” Phil’s voice was cold and matter of fact “that’s not what killed your parents”

“Then what did? What could’ve possibly-“

“We did” Kristin cut him off, sending a shock of cold through him “it was us. All  of it. There is no curse that’s just… just something you won’t let go of.”

Obviously there’s an argument

Tech calling them monsters

Them saying they’re his parents

Him saying he wishes he didn’t have any if it meant killing the rest of his family for them

Them pointing out how badly he was treated

Him saying he’d rather that then be allowed to believe in some made up curse

Him saying he won’t report it to anyone but he’s leaving, he can't be around them after this

Phil laughing and tech pausing

Him asking if he really thinks that’s an option

Tech saying that of course it is

Phil smiling and tilting his head, saying to get back to his dinner as it’s getting cold

Kristin maybe also trying to coax him

Tech calling them insane and saying that he’s not going back

Phil telling him again to go back but this time much less friendly

Tech laughing at how ridiculous it is and being like “you know what? Fine” and slamming the door back open

Him going up to the table and slamming down on it cutting Wil off from asking if he’s fine

Tech asking them if they wanna know what he just learned

Kristin warning him against saying it, saying he won’t know the answer

Tech being like “nooo you guys wanted me back in here with dinner. I might as well share this news with the rest of the fucking family”

Him saying that they killed everyone else and that the curse has been a lie

Shock washing over crimeboys

Wil turning to Kristin and Phil and asking if they finally told him

Technos time to be shocked

Tommy joining in and being happy that they don’t have to play along with it anymore

Surprised pikachu face

Phil being very smug

Tech being even more betrayed

Phil sighing and acting all inconvenienced because techs proven he won’t keep his mouth shut

Calling the guards to take him to his room

Tech getting grabbed and dragged away and maybe begging Kristin (who looks very guilty) for help (aww manipulative baby)

Kristin having the guards stop

Tech thinking he’s free

Her coming closer and cupping his face, saying that he’ll always be her baby and that she loves him very much

Him saying he loves her too

Her smiling and giving him a kiss on the forehead

“Then you’ll understand why you have to be locked away for a little.”

Betrayal x2 >:)

Tech crying and fighting and being dragged off to his room

Getting tossed in and hearing the lock clock behind him

Him running up to the window and seeing the garden, remembering when he hid the first time

Him crying

He’ll get used to it I’m sure. His family live him very much he’s just gotta get over the whole murder thing.

And then they love him forever and ever and he loves them back

Got one too many comments theorising about the future (and consequences) of my superstition fic and now there’s a whole sequel outline

No clue when I’ll get to it so you’ll probably be getting the bullet points as a yummy treat later

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Oh my god I forgot my spreadsheet update again kms. Here it is like a week late!

[dorylinae-supremacy]

New chaps is finally here! Almost 6k in length!!

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Ughh I woke up a bit ago and final edits are finally done! I just gonna do comments and then you'll be getting your (almost) 6k chap :))

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Sorry for disappearing! I got in a mood. Anyway no upload tonight (as in at like 1am) but I will upload in the morning when I wake up!

[dorylinae-supremacy]

At 3k and I have to go to sleep >:(

I'll have to move the upload to tomorrow but idk how pissy I'll be about it.

Depending on how these last few scenes fight me I might just shove this to next sunday so everyone has a week to read the chap.

Take a snippet as an apology

Heyyy besties so fun fact the entire chap got deleted which sucks ass (and is a testament to why my previous sleeping schedule was superior) but in good news I have a better ending in mind and I'm gonna just write that instead of what I had before

It'll be later than what I wanted but I'll get it done today. Honestly idk if any of you will really notice since I think you're in a different timezone but I figured I should mention it anyway

Update won’t be at 1-4am like usual due to corrected sleep schedule (cringe) but I’ll upload whenever I wake up.

Should still be early but you never know with me.

@comfy-vember Day two: Favorite Song

Song: The Ballad Of The Witches’ Road

If cn!Techno had access to the internet, this song would be one of his favorites!

I think The Ballad Of The Witches' Road and Come Little Children would be some of his favorite songs.

(Original idea: @dorylinae-supremacy)

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Upload will probably be tomorrow besties! My sleep schedule is actually fixing itself somehow and I might genuinely be asleep at 1-4am like a normal person for once

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Au where Techno is a (frankly) deeply pathetic pirate king. He’s built like his entire life around how brutal and violent he is to keep himself safe but now he’s 20 and he’s just really fucking lonely.

He kinda expected it but he just wants his own little dudes to hang out with sometimes.

Normal pirates who kinda cycle around on his ship are fine but they’re all terrified of him and the ones that are fucked up enough to like him are generally just deeply unpleasant people.

So he just spends a lot of his time leaning on the bannister of the ship and staring into the sea. It’s a very good spot for him to zone out especially after having to cull all his staff over a mutiny.

He looks over into the distance, enjoying steady rock of his ship and the sound of the waves until he notices something.

A fin in the water.

Now this wouldn’t be too surprising considering the fact that blood is literally covering his deck at the moment and dripping into the sea but there’s something off about it.

No shark had a fin like that, as far as he was aware. It wasn’t grey at all and, to only add onto his suspicion, it stopped moving the moment he spotted it.

He’s never seen a fish do that.

He has seen a siren do it though.

Peering closer only confirmed his suspicions. There, barely concealed by the waves, were the beast humanlike eyes of one of those monsters.

Watching him.

Just like how he was watching it.

Distantly, he wondered what it thought of him, if sirens could think of anything past a meal.

—-

But anyway they kinda stare at each other for a while before it darts closer, stunning techno back so he stumbles.

What surprises him more is hearing it laugh at him when he scrambles back to look between the rails again. I’m thinking it’s Phil maybe because he’s very fun and I think he’d fuck with Techno anyway.

Somehow they strike up a convo and, unexpectedly, they start bonding.

Sirens generally have a hatred for humans but, as it turns out, they quite like Techno due to how brutal he is with it. He’s kinda just like a siren without scales to them so he basically gets adopted.

Ofc 4/4 happens and they slowly bond through them kinda trailing his ship and him dropping off dead crewmates for them to eat. I think it’s funny since it’s kinda like tech is feeding his goldfish but in a much more fucked up way.

Anyway idk how it ends but basically he just gets a family of sirens who follow him around while he kills and like him very much. Maybe they turn him or maybe they Unlock Legs but either way it’s fun.

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Also! Before I drop off the face of the earth for another few hours, I did some edits to the necromancer au fic in honour of halloween because I kinda hated some parts of it

There aren't any huge changes but I just reworded some stuff and fixed a bit of the layout

Also just love the detail of Techno managing to say 1 sentence before genuinely forgetting how to speak. What a king.
