Can I request Daichi with #14 of the Summer Prompts please?
Prompt: when they wear tank-tops while doing manly labor and you're just there admiring the sight (I hope I got that right)
😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.😎.
You whistle low under your breath.
Daichi pulls his shoulders up to his ears, face red, but not from the sun.
"Stop it," he insists, but there's a joyful tone underneath, one that tells you he likes the attention even though he's going to insist it's childish.
"No no," you wave him off, "please, continue."
"I won't if you won't."
"But baby," you pout, "the weather is so nice and you wanted to wash the cars for so long."
He sighs before pointing his finger at you. "Behave."
But you wouldn't have married him if you knew how to listen, would you?
Five minutes after he's disappeared out the door in nothing but cut-off shorts and a tank top that's slightly too tight on him, you've grabbed all your supplies. Essentials, really.
There's the comfy chair you can lie in - in a way that showcases all your best features - and have a drink nearby, as well as the cooler with necessary drinks. You bring a book too, though you don't think you'll need it.
Daichi doesn't notice you immediately, but when he does, he doubles down with laughter.
"What is this?" He asks, coming over to your side of the driveway. "Are you playing rich princess?"
You put your sunglasses up to squint at him. "Am I not your little princess?"
He smiles, wide and joyful, and leans down to kiss you.
"I certainly treat you like one."

I mentioned before I'm playing Planet Crafter, which is a game on steam where the player character is a convict who has chosen to be sent to terraform an unnamed planet in an attempt to avoid being executed. On the planet the player discovers a lost civilization of aliens called the Wardens who were apparently nearly identical to humans in appearance. You don't need to use the setting of Planet Crafter if you adopt this bunny, and this doesn't really follow the actual plot. I just wanted to explain what the inspiration was.
So Xie Lian is basically the convict here! Maybe he was wrongfully convicted, maybe he actually did what he's there for, It's up to the author. He's been sent to a desolated planet. He knows it's extremely unlikely he'll survive, but he'd rather die here with the illusion of freedom than in a cage.
Things are not going well it, seems what little he's been given to work with is faulty, except strangely after a few days, everything seems to start repairing itself overnight. One night unable to sleep Xie Lian discovers a young man, with no survival gear, or protective clothing in a freezing non-breathable atmosphere, repairing the equipment for him. When the man sees him and vanishes Xie Lian thinks he's started hallucinating, but strange things keep happening. Eventually after the man saves him from an incident that would have otherwise been fatal they finally talk.
Turns out if Xie Lian is hallucinating, he's damn good at coming up with backstories for his hallucinations. The man claims to be a ghost stuck here because his people sacrificed him in an attempt to avoid disaster which failed. Other than the ruins he shows Xie Lian, he is the only remnant of his people, and he can't even remember his name. He does remember he had two older siblings, so Xie Lian starts calling him San Lang.
Xie Lian still doesn't know if any of this is real, but at least he doesn't feel so alone anymore, and things are going much better with San Lang around.
Side Note: In the game the player also receives messages from someone they knew before their arrest trying to help them, but you can't reply to them. So if you want to add that then Xie Lian can also kind of have communication with other characters!

For the one word wip ask game:
Amber
Hmmm, decisions, decisions. Ya know what? Let's do both! I have one for next year's June of Doom and another WIP that exists just for funsies:
Amber eyes look up and finally make eye contact with brown.
Looking over her shoulder, Chrome stops walking for moment to take in the way the sun reflects off Kyoko’s hair, turning it a glowing golden amber to match her shining eyes.

sqbr replied to this post:
ASARI DARCY o.O
Haha, my thought process was basically, "Okay, so if Elizabeth is Shepard, then Darcy could be either another human or, let's see, which other species could he—oh my god, asari. Of course he's an asari."

Therapy group????
😂 I have this pretty persistent plotbunny bouncing about in my head about Harry dying in the final battle and Severus surviving which leads to Ginny becoming borderline suicidal in her way of playing Quidditich, granting her a place in group therapy because she almost killed a teammate, and Severus being in the same group therapy to shorten his suspended sentence because he wants to fucking leave GB once and for all.
As you see, it will be exactly my vibe of drama, two absolutely broken characters and a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms. I love writing it and I haven't even started yet... 😂

Hi I was was wondering do you have any thoughts on Sylvain interest towards Shez wepon definitely when compared to Linhardt and possibly Hanneman lack of interest.
Oh!
As opposed to the GD shaft, Nopes really explored more on the BL gang!
It's very interesting and in character with his "evolution" tbh, Sylvain resents his position as the crested heir and the importance of his crest - but also understands his crest (and his ability to use it!) is needed in Gautier because Gautier is a march and it needs protection from the Srengese raids.
So him being interested in Barney's weapons - apparently super powerful like relics (which raises the question of wtf agarthans slaughtered lizards to make weapons if they could make weapons as powerful as lizard-made weapons??) - goes in his general arc, if people can become as powerful as crested people with a relic by using Barney's weapons, it would alleviate the burden placed on crest bearers!
IIRC Sylvain also expresses interest in a firearm protoype iirc?
It's again relative to his mindset of developing weapons that don't need crests to use, and would be as efficient as Relics -
And we could link this to Rhea's ban of "black water" extraction - for sure it gives everyone an access to "powerful" weapons, but is it really a good thing if you want a peaceful land?
(Which is also why I like the Nopes mention that fwiw, the Gautier "tried" to foster peace with Leif, the Srengese grandson of the guy Macul yeeted away, but in the end it doesn't work that well and Clout adds Almyran oil on the fire)
Of course we will never know because Agartha is never developped what Barney's weapons are, and if anyone, bar Barney, can use them or if they are "as strong" as relics lore-wise...
But it was a fun idea the writers gave us (and obviously never developed)!
Hanneman and Linhardt's interest in crests is... not as practical, Lin wants to study for Science ! and Hanneman, despite his backstory (even if his endings mention progress and development of tech not needing crests?) is very elusive on the question - he is supposed to be the head honcho on crestology, but the one who was getting closer to "the truth" is a random monk who stopped researching and left a note in the Abyss rather than said head honcho...

What's Gotham's Finest?
Gotham's Finest is a no-capes, Cop!Dick/Crime-Lord!Jason story, where Dick is the new transfer in from Bludhaven, determined to clean up the city, and Jason was the adopted son and heir to one now very dead Roman Sionis, and has since inherited both the legal and illegal sides of his business. Enemies to lovers with a lot of work to get there.
There are two chapters so far, featuring an opening interrogation and some set-up, and I'm working on the third (on and off), which should be discussions over dinner. We'll see how that goes. XD
Snippet:
Todd looks up when his escort brings him around the final corner. Gets to his feet with a slanted smile, and offers a hand. "Officer." He's wearing a perfectly cut maroon shirt, this time. Darker than the last one, fit closer to his ribs, and with a plain, slim black tie secured to his shirt with a glinting clip. Diamonds, Dick thinks, not that he's familiar enough with high price fashion to be sure. Not at a glance. The shirt is tucked into black slacks, secured with a belt that makes the inwards angle of his waist obvious; all the fabric creased at the perfect angles, probably tailored, probably worth more than Dick could afford on a month of salary. He looks like he belongs in here, which is more than Dick can say for himself. Dick debates for a probably obvious second before he accepts the offer of a handshake. It's a sturdy grip, but not crushing. "Mr. Todd." "Jason is fine," comes the quick reply, as Todd lets go and extends his hand to the other side of the table. "Please."

Seven Lines Tag Game
Thank you so much for the tag, @passionatewrites!
Rule: Share seven lines from a WIP and tag seven people.
From the draft of the prologue of my Grishaverse fic, Thread of Twilight. Much more than seven lines, but it would feel unfinished otherwise :-P
The girl kept her eyes on the log she had placed in front of her. Her fingers curled and glided over it, drawing shapes as a frown settled on her face. The boy watched her, saying nothing.
When her hands finally stilled, she pursed her lips for a moment but picked up the piece of wood nonetheless. It looked like a bird, even though a crudely shaped one.
“My grandmother says there’s much more to it,” she said. “I’ve tried, but I haven’t managed to make something break apart yet.”
The boy studied her, his gray eyes boring into her. “Wielding such power takes practice.” He let out a breath. “It’s not easy.”
She peered at him, her face suddenly lighting up. “Can you do something like that? Show me!”
Tagging (tagging more than seven ‘cause I’m interested in seeing what people are working on): @arrthurpendragon @heirsoflilith @foxesandmagic @asirensrage @come-along-pond @sunlitscribe @waterloou @residentdormouse @darknightfrombeyond @bobfloydsbabe @late-to-the-fandom @heresthefanfiction @bluebell-winter @starcrossedjedis, and anyone who wants to join in on the fun!

🌀,🌤️,and 🌈 please!
Tumblr media
🌀 Post the pitch for a game you’re working on
I have to cheat a little for this one because my games are currently either done or such vague ideas that I can't even pitch them properly.
But let's talk about Bunny, We Bought a Dungeon, which Jasmin Neitzel and me actually wrote first before we hacked it into Dolly, We Bought a Dream House.
Here's the pitch: You're a group of anthropomorphic bunnies who have bought a dungeon to move in there together. As you narrate the exploration and renovation of the dungeon, you draw a map of it together.
Mechanically, we're calling it a GM-less OSR story game. We're using OSR elements like dice drops, random roll tables, and of course a classic fantasy dungeon setting and combine them with GM-less story mechanics, action rolls inspired by Lasers & Feelings (but not exactly like L&F), and the idea that dungeons can also be homes.
We've already published it in German earlier this year and I've recently translated it into English and will release it tomorrow at the latest.
Tumblr media
🌤️ Share your favorite mechanic from a game you’re working on
Same disclaimer as above. So let's talk about something I've already published! I'm still proud of my supplement Alternative Crowns of the Queen for Brindlewood Bay.
As in the original game, it's a set of narrative prompts that allow more insight into the characters' backstory and current life outside of investigating murders and supernatural conspiracies (you use them to bump up a roll one level). And as in the original game, they're meant to show the Murder Mavens "as a woman."
However, my Crowns of the Queen cover a lot more ground than the ones in the original because a senior woman's life of course contains many other relevant aspects than being a daughter, mother, or wife/romantic partner (which is what the original game focuses on). Therefore, my Crowns offer you prompts about bodies, aging, and health, female solidarity and friendship, professional successes and failures, and of course an option to tell a coming-out story.
(In case anyone reading along is wondering: Yes, I absolutely think asking questions/giving narrative prompts is a proper game mechanic just as much as rolling dice or drawing cards or ticking boxes on a sheet is.)
Tumblr media
🌈 Share your favourite class/playbook from one of your games (name the game, or let me choose)
So far, I only have one game that has something resembling playbooks, so we're talking about my Firebrands game Miss Bernburg's Finishing School for Young Ladies here. It's set in an all-girl upper-class boarding school in the 1950s (located in Western Europe or North America).
It has three cliques to choose from, which function as character archetypes more than social circles: Homemakers, Bookworms, and Rebels (the latter may be renamed in the translation of the second edition I'm planning for sometime in the future). You get a short flavor text, a list of attractive characteristics to choose three from, and some name suggestions. There are further character questions to answer, such as items they've put on display or keep hidden in their dorm rooms (those are partly different in the first and second edition of the game).
I always enjoy playing a Homemaker (or seeing them played) because there's so much variety you can bring to this type of Young Lady. You can play her as a naive, down-to-earth person who just enjoys traditionally female activities and responsibilities. Or you can play her as a charmingly manipulative person who sees this role as the best opportunity to at least have some social and political influence in her life. Or you can play her as someone who aims to use a facade of respectability to create space for a relatively unbothered queer life on the side. Or maybe she's just waiting for someone to nudge her out of her conformist comfort zone and discover a curious or rebellious streak?
As always, we play to find out, and the Homemakers nearly always have some of the most interesting story arcs I've played and witnessed in this game. (Ask me again and I will tell you the same thing about the other two cliques, though!)

diraaaa mattsun anon here!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️
can i please request something seijoh 4 related for your plot bun game? dealer’s choice. go hog wild. your writing’s gonna be fantastic either way!!
hello mattsun anon! How nice of you to chime in.
This is really hard, because I don't knooooooowwwww....
Tumblr media
"Poor Iwa-chan," Oikawa teases, "I bet you'd get a girlfriend too if you tried not looking so scary all the time."
"No no," you disagree, "the girls dig it."
Mattsun snorts. "Which ones? The First-Years just run away all the time when he comes close."
"No, they just run away when they see you," Makki says, kicking your foot with his like he's doing his own version of a low-five.
"Very funny," Iwaizumi drawls, squinting at Oikawa. "And who says I can't get a girlfriend?"
"The fact that you don't have one?"
"At least I'm not just liked for my looks."
"At least I have looks people like me for."
"Guys, guys, you're both pretty," you wave a hand in between them, "but we still need to finish this group project. I'm not letting Tatsumo be first in class this year."
"Just date him," Mattsun drawls out lazily, "isn't he totally in love with you."
You pull a face as Makki snickers. Iwaizumi and Oikawa are still lost in their bickering.
-
"You know I'm a girl, right?" You ask Iwaizumi on the way home, Makki and Mattun walking ahead of you, Oikawa and his girlfriend a few steps behind.
"Yeah, why?" Iwaizumi musters you under furrowed brows.
"Just checking."
-
"There are no more chairs," Kindaichi calls out when you enter, "shall I get some more from the basement?"
"No, that would take too long," Oikawa looks like he's been waiting on all of you for hours when it had just been a few minutes. "You can just sit on the floor."
"No way, I don't want to get a UTI," you scan the room, "anyone letting me sit in their lap?"
"I volunteer Iwaizumi," Mattsun hollers.
"Yeah, strongest thighs in all Seijoh," Makki adds and although the ace blushes slightly, he nods, shoulders squared.
"Sit down," Oikawa orders immediately, "I wanna get started. Why do team meetings always take so damn long?"
"You good?" Iwaizumi asks, his mouth next to your ear.
He sounds completely unaffected. You are going to die.
-
"Would you please become my girlfriend?"
You stare down at the chocolate. Tatsumo went through all the effort of drawing your name on it with colored sugar.
"Sorry, I-" There's a noise that has you look up. Iwaizumi's at the door, an unreadable expression on his face.
"Didn't want to interrupt," he says, turning away. When you reach the door he's already out of sight.
There's no use running after him now, so you turn back, rejection already sitting on your tongue.
-
"So?" Mattsun settles in the seat on your left. "Did you confess to Iwaizumi?"
"What did he say?" Makki asks, leaning in from your right. "He looked constipated today."
"He walked in on Tatsumo confessing to me."
"Oh." Mattsun nods. "Well, maybe now he'll realize you're a girl."
You close your eyes for a moment.
"It doesn't matter," you tell them when you open your eyes again. "I've decided that I'm not staying in Japan anyway."
"You're leaving us?" Mattsun blinks, clearly surprised. "Really?"
"Yeah," you nod, fiddling with your fingers, "I just need... I just need to get away, you know?"
-
Your bags are packed and checked in, your passport sits safely in your purse and you've triple-checked that you're at the right Gate.
Nothing can go wrong now on this adventure, you're sure, even if your heart breaks a little.
But surely, on a different continent, in a different timezone, you'll find yourself. Isn't that how it always works?
Someone gets up from one of the chairs. Behind him, you spot a well-known bag, the color unmistakably Seijoh.
"Iwaizumi? What are you... Are you going to California too?"

solar flares?? 👀
hiiii bunny!! thanks for indulging me kjghksjd
so solar flares is my contribution to the dick grayson big bang, coming out in june! (date got pushed back a bit) it's pretty much my take on the "oldest sibling issues dick grayson" thing, and i've been working pretty hard on it! it might be one of my more heavier fics ive done in a while, if only bc it hits close to home for me at times
here's a snippet from part 2!
What was going on? Not just with him, but with everybody? It was like they were all in cahoots, sharing some secret they were keeping tight-lipped about. Tim saying Bruce was different; the unchallenging deference from Damian towards Bruce; the avid and immediate concern from Alfred; Bruce. Bruce and the steak– the fucking extra food on his plate. His inquiry about Dick’s sickness, how he was feeling. The near admittance of missing him in Gotham, in the Manor. What was going on? Dick couldn’t make sense of any of it, the thoughts from months before racing to the front of his mind again. 
There was a shift, a massive change, and everyone was in on it except him. What had he missed? He knew Bruce, probably knew him better than anyone else in the world, and yet he couldn’t comprehend what was going on in that man’s head. All those weeks ago, with Damian and Bruce, with Tim and Bruce, seeing Alfred take a step forwards and- and– Dick wasn’t even sure what it was that struck him so utterly surprised but it bothered him to the point of nausea. He was missing something, blind to a glaring hole, and it was driving him mad. His teeth ached, his head hurt, and the world felt close to a pinprick.
He needs to get it together. In for five. Out for six. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

me: I should really get to re-reading for my dissertation, it's just that I'm thinking about FemShep!Elizabeth Bennet and what background she'd have. Okay, okay, never mind, reading Webster it is.
me: —but obviously it wouldn't be the ruthless option, even though it's the most interesting. That kind of grim backstory, especially joined with the colonist origin, doesn't really suit her personality or history.
me: I guess I could make one up that works as a canon analogue rather than any of the in-game options at all. But she's too lively and cheerful and good-natured to be the butcher of Torfan even if it's really intriguing.
me: ...
me: but what if👀

I had so many plot bunnies bouncing around in my head for the past few weeks but I put off writing them until I finished the chapter I'd started, and now that I've finished it all the plot bunnies have gone into hibernation.
How could they betray me like this.
