This was meant to be just a one off little microfic, but now I'm imagining op as another lycanthrope (please don't call her a werewolf) but she's basically like a border collie and is just really high strung all the time. After some prior shenanigans, the three of them are now living in a Lady & the Tramp situation
[Staggers to the office coffee machine and starts fumbling my way through pouring a cup]
Huh? Oh... so last night, the semi-feral werewolf that my wife and I adopted climbed into bed with us and started spooning me... which is fine. I love her. She did nothing wrong... but it was 4:30 in the morning and I couldn't fall back asleep before the alarm went off.

I say, I should have been a tree, with limbs o'er arching. Shade spread out like a picnic blanket for you to rest in. Roots holding soil in place, leaves falling to molder and nourish the undergrowth.
You say, I should have been born a wolf, fur sleek, a song in my throat to call together the pack. Strong jaw long teeth, wildness and companionship personified.
We would have been at home in a forest together I think. You might have lain in my shade in the summer afternoons and I would hum the gentle rhythm of leaves shaking in the breeze. When winter came I would be dozing, with my dreams studded in the songs of you and your pack.
I should have been a tree, you should have been a wolf, but it is lovely to walk the world this time round with fingers that can lace together and lips to put to words the simple gentle truth of two souls who care for and comfort one another.

your new house is haunted by two ghosts and both swear the other is the malicious spirit who keeps shattering your cups of coffee and writing threatening messages in the mirror. you let them know they had a month to come clean or else both would face the consequence.
today is that consequence.
"so i guess this is the end," the ghost who hangs out near your backdoor says.
"today is the day they call the exorcist," the ghost who haunts your closet moans.
"exorcist?" you ask as you adjust your Ghost Goggles and pull on your Ghost Punching Gloves.

Saltwater mermaid and freshwater mermaid fall in love. Once a year, when the saltwater mermaid's migration brings them together, they meet in the estuary and fall in love all over again

Anyway, here's Undine:
It's also on tumblr, but you know how it is trying to search here. I was mostly working on it prior to Such Lovely Fur and the Engineer, which I think got me a lot of new followers here (Lovely Fur has a lot fewer kudos on ao3 than I thought it did, interesting).
But yeah, Undine's a retelling of one of the stories that directly inspired the Little Mermaid (the original Undine novella is not great, to the point that it made me mad enough to write this). At this point, I don’t know if I want to finish it or rewrite it (because I know I could do better).
Sort of related, I do have a whole entire completed story of Cinderella/Frankenstein mashup that people might like:

It sucks having a story that you love just not get engagement. Like I made some of my specialest little blorbos and nobody noticed them.

The fey takes a long drag from the joint and leans their head back against the brick wall of the alley. They hand it back to me as they begin to blow out a column of now iridescent smoke.
I hesitate a moment before I take it. Does this count as accepting a gift from a fey? I think I did them a favor by offering to share with them in the first place, but what happens when they give it back?
Whatever. I don't care. Fuck me up.
"I swapped out a changeling today," they say, their voice monotone. "They just... put the baby in a fucking self driving car to send it accross town for the afternoon handoff. Red light at Maple and 7th. Whole exchange took about 30 seconds."
They drag their hands down their face with an exhausted sigh.
"You know I once swapped out one of the Khan's nephews? Took me three weeks to infiltrate the palace before I could even get into the room. Best job I ever did."

Heyyyyyy bro... so I just got back from a reality hopping adventure and... no yeah, it was cool, we saved the multiverse... yeah, sure, I'll tell you all about it on a sec, I just gotta ask something first... so... well... every version of you that I met was a girl... huh? No. Like they were all trans... I'm pretty sure... seemed rude to ask. But yeah, um... how are you doing?

Reverse transubstantiation is disorienting, to say the least. To have a fragment of divinity drawn out and foced into a physical form is a whole entire process. And now there's a whole gaggle of humans peering curiously at me. They don't look like any priests I've ever seen, but it has been a long while since my name was invoked.
"You are a god of river deltas and estuaries?" a woman asks.
"I'm the god of one particular river delta," I clarify.
"So you have knowledge and power over water flow, salinity balance, and biodiversity," she says. "You are an ideal candidate!"
"For what exactly?"
"Our society has undergone rapid industrialization in the past few decades, and our infrastructure has struggled to keep up. I guess you could say that one of the great evils plaguing our society is the lack of a robust public works system. We are looking to assemble a pantheon to help us address this issue and we hope that you would be amenable to joining our team."
"What?"
“You guys made a mistake in your summoning ritual.” “Nonsense! There’s no error here, you’re the chosen hero!” “….You all realize I’m a god right?”

So apparently the Aphrodite monologue double posted yesterday morning... but like 8 hours apart, so maybe when I originally posted and then when I got out of work?
Love the tumblr app. So functional.

The worst characters are the ones were you only get like three pieces of lore about them but the lore is so fascinating and hits your brain at just the right angle to have you behaving like a feral dog in front of your conspiracy theory cork board

[Takes a long drink of the cheap pisswater beer they serve here]
Yeah, sure, I like to live dangerously. On new moons, go out into the woods and offer bones to the blood god and blood to the bone god. They ain't caught me yet on account of them fightin' each other over sacrifices. You should try it sometime. Funniest shit you can imagine.

Oh my gosh. I just found this website that walks you though creating a believable society. It breaks each facet down into individual questions and makes it so simple! It seems really helpful for worldbuilding!
