This is just Hidden Depths I fear

Truly one of the oddest feelings is reading a fic that is so out of character but the writing and plot is so compelling. Like yeah I came here for the characters but yeah you know what I will read your original novel with the serial numbers plastered on

[hiddendepths-aublog]

I JUST HAD TO DELETE ALMOST EVERY WORD OF CHAPTER 14 BECAUSE I ONLY NOW REALISED THAT FOR THE QUESTION THAT’S ASKED AT THE VERY START OF THE CHAPTER TO BE REASONABLY ASKED, THE NEW LORDS WOULD HAVE TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE THAT THEY DON’T GET UNTIL CHAPTER 21

[hiddendepths-aublog]

hello ao3 user Pinkiest_of_peaches, may I ask why you casually just dropped the funniest thing I’ve ever read in my entire life in your bookmark

[hiddendepths-aublog]

religious killer: i can hear God speaking to me, to kill the demons that live in this world with my gun of justice

atheist killer: I kill only because of my own moral code. Whether it's for money so I can survive, or self-defense against a threat, I am the one who chooses when I kill.

agnostic killer: nobody really knows why I shoot people

[hiddendepths-aublog]

hmmm, what a perfectly normal sentence, no crazy lore implications here

Chapter 13: A More Formal Introduction

It’s out, everyone! Have fun learning more about the Churches!

[hiddendepths-aublog]

If only time could move a bit quicker.

[hiddendepths-aublog]

Update: Chapter 13 is coming along smoothly! I’ll probably be able to get it out by tomorrow if I set my mind to it (not making any promises though).

[hiddendepths-aublog]

having to stay at least relatively faithful to Starkid’s style of humour can be a blessing and a curse :)

[hiddendepths-aublog]

Sharing this here because I’m pumped that I’ve actually written words for Chapter 13 today and I want to give yall some more breadcrumbs:

Here to announce that the next three chapters will be lore-dedicated chapters, focused mainly on worldbuilding rather than anything else! They come in three different… “flavours” if you want to call them that.

Chapter 13’s lore drops are ones that haven’t been established here, but aren’t particularly groundbreaking and don’t really change much about the lore of the story. I still think a lot of you will find said lore drops interesting but they ultimately don’t amount to much.

Chapter 14’s lore drops are really less lore drops and more just… more detailed expansions on stuff that’s already been established here. I could elaborate on what I’m talking about but I want to keep it a secret, even if it’s relatively obvious what I’m talking about.

Chapter 15, however, is… kind of a bombshell in terms of its lore? Well, not “bombshell” per se, but it’s the only one that actually ties up any of the loose threads about the worldbuilding. Loose threads that, luckily, nobody has asked me about yet! :3 (you can send more asks to see if you can guess what it’s gonna be about… or just send me asks in general… but don’t feel pressured into doing it just have fun)

After that we have a fun little chapter that mostly serves as just filler, the crazy rollercoaster of emotions that is Chapter 17, more interesting and cool stuff that doesn’t really amount to anything special in Chapter 18…

…and it’s all downhill from there. ;)

Big fan of sun motifs in characters not necessarily being about positivity and happiness and how they're so " bright and warm" but instead being about fucking brutal they are.

Radiant. A FORCE of nature that will turn you to ash. That warmth that burns so hot it feels like ice. Piercing yellow and red and white. A character being a Sun because you cannot challenge a Sun without burning alive or taking everything down with them if victorious.

[hiddendepths-aublog]

Took a teeny-tiny break from Chapter 13 to name one of the later chapters! Sharing it with yall because… cmon this chapter name is too silly for me not to share.

[hiddendepths-aublog]

Based on the paragraph you teased it seems like Wiggly has a plan. If that's true could you describe that plan in one word? (Ya know if it's not too spoilery)

TheimpressionImadeontheChurcheslastnightwasshitasfucksoI’mgonnagodownthererightnowsotheycancoverallthethingstheywantedtocoverwithmelastnightbutcouldn’t.

Nothing unusual about that. That’s totally one word. See, there aren’t any spaces. Why are you looking at me like that.
