For the writers ask!

🍓, 🕯️, 🛼, and 🥤- specially author rec :)

Ah, thank you dear <3

🍓 ⇢ how did you get into writing fanfiction? 

I've been reading fanfiction since I was twelve (googling fanart and finding a German fanfiction website because someone used that art as their profile picture). I always wanted to write some as well (though I wasn't confident in my abilities yet and wouldn't have published any of it). I started with Warrior Cats fanfiction using my own clans :P The first real fanfictions I tried my hand at were for Inuyasha (together with two of my friends), Hetalia, X-Men First Class, and Kuroko no Basket.

🕯️ ⇢ on a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you enjoy editing? why is that?

Maybe a 5? I enjoy seeing the story completed, even if it's imperfect, there's a big sense of accomplishment already. It's nice to revisit the characters and the story you've grown to care about (I usually take a break between the first draft and editing), so there's a lot of pride involved. I'll be honest, though, I feel like I'm not good at editing - 'kill your darlings' as they say, isn't that easy for me, I guess. I might be afraid of making drastic changes? :')

🛼 ⇢ describe your latest wip with five emojis

My epic fantasy original work: 🏺🐦‍🔥🎭🌈💦 (that was fun!)

🥤 ⇢ recommend an author or fanfic you love

You mean beside you? <3 :P

I was quite fond of this fanfiction when I read it years ago: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2737374/1/Solstice-Night (Star Wars, Obikin) It sparked my love for Obikin :)

This is also a highlight if I need a good laugh: https://archiveofourown.org/works/8186626 (DC, Batfamily)

A gem I read recently: https://archiveofourown.org/works/25509340/chapters/61887730 (Outlast, Eddie x Waylon) I love the portrayal of therapy and psychology here :D

I could add more fics, but you can also just check my bookmarks on ao3 (though some of them are guilty pleasure smut lol).

As for authors:

crownjrose (rosesnblueberries) https://archiveofourown.org/users/rosesnblueberries/pseuds/crownjrose -> I discovered them through their Labyrinth fanfiction, very mature and lovely writing <3

lithugraph https://archiveofourown.org/users/lithugraph -> Who writes amazing Hetalia fanfictions <3

Apuzzlingprince https://archiveofourown.org/users/Apuzzlingprince -> I devoured their IT (Stephen King) fanfictions when I was in the fandom back then. Really sad they're not active anymore.

theoldgods https://archiveofourown.org/users/theoldgods/works?fandom_id=31741600 -> For their great Rocketman (2019) fanfictions.

Camden https://archiveofourown.org/users/Camden -> For their lovely Glee (Kurtofsky) fanfictions.

Can you tell I'm a multishipper? :P

Thunderstorm, 7/17/21

Tonight, the old gods tore the sky

from end to end in ruthless bliss

as lighting fell upon the earth

and smote the ground with deadly kiss.

I think I finally understand

how ancient, fearful man did feel,

for never have I seen a thing

that made me question what was real.

[thenorthwomanwitch]

They're still here. Watching. Looking out for you. Looking out for the earth. Taking care of the universe.

Have a good start into the new week, and don’t rush anything 🌿

[wordsoftheoldgods]

This painting, "Idise" (1905) by Emil Doepler, depicts a scene from the Merseburg Zaubersprüche (magic charms), two texts written in Old High German (Althochdeutsch) around the 9th century. They represent the only preserved texts describing German pagan belief that were not written by Christians. The first of two charms, depicted here, is a Lösesegen (blessing of loose-letting) describing how Idisen (the word is clearly related to the Norse dísir, and some scholars think that the Idisen are roughly equivalent to norse valkyries, based on behavior. The existance of the German word Walküre(n) does not preclude this; as it is simply a later borrowing from Old Norse) freed captured warriors during battle. Like most spells recovered from the period, the incantation consists of a short reference to magic performed in the past, and then an invocation for the effect to repeat itself (as it was then, so shall it be now). Following is the text in Old High German, and then translations into modern German and English. If you want to read this aloud, remember that <z> and <uu> are pronounced as [ts] and [w], respectively. Eiris sazun idisi, Sazun hera duoder; Suma hapt heptidun, Suma heri lezidun, Suma clubodun umbi cuoniouuidi: Insprinc haptbandun, inuar uigandum! Einstmals setzen sich Idisen; sie setzten sich hierhin und dorthin. Einige hefteten, andere hemmten das Heer, andere nesteln an festen Fesseln: Entspringt den Banden, entweicht den Feinden! Once sat Idisen/dísir here and there. Some fastened bonds, some impeded an army, some unraveled fetters: Escape now these bonds! Flee from the enemy! More info to come in later posts! DM for info on sources :)

The old gods are in the smell of summer rain, accompanied by their loud discussions that we hear as thunder.
