Once Upon A Lover

!! Death warning !!

A dating sim me and my friend made

Far off in California, in Hidden Hills. A girl sat at her desk. She looked out the windows wishing you lived in a fairytale. But, be careful what you wish for. Especially when you're a lonely girl in a fantasy world where one can't figure out who these new people are, a new life a new day a new dating sim?!?!?!!? a new world where you're the princess and stuck in a world with mythical creatures.

Well, here they are! Your non-existent love interest!

A warlord, covered in blood, Monokuma! Never to step out of his room and a lonely prince. Can you make him open up?

And Syrdon Necahual, a outgoing and cunning Prince!

Eric and Eirca Kanik, two Royal twins, loved by there parents dearly. The shiny outgoing Prince and the smartass and caring Princess! "I mean, hey, we can be losers together, can't we?"-Erica Kanik

And a flowery prince with a kind heart and handsome features, waiting just for you! Rose Ali! "You think Roses look beautiful? Ahh, yes. I think so, too. Though, I favor Mari's and Daises."

A cute witch, trying her best to be good for you! She only wishes you a happy ending!! Piper Clover!

Mika Shimisu, A pretty and anxious fairy, she tries her very hardest for you!!

A beautiful blonde mermaid, Victoria Moran, she is kind but nervous. Please be nice!! "I've always been scared of humans who come near the sea... Yet... You... Are different..."

A pirate that looks for money for his crew, but keeps a Golden heart in the process. Adrian Dorrado!

Two pirate siblings that hate each other! Arjun and Avani Varma! one mischievous, the other impulsive, yet, both equally attractive!

Teivel, a butler by your Royal side... At least I think he is?

Liran Neves, a hardworking and independent wizard!!

The Golden Dragon, cold and brutal. No one knows much about him..

You can send in asks and roleplays with the characters!! They'd love to chat with you!!

Rules for this blog

No super intense nsfw.

Don't put false info about the characters!!

If there is art posted, don't steal/trace art!! ^o^

Don't do smth that will get you cancelled.

Don't be rude to each other!! But you can be rude to the characters

I'd say don't be rude, but it'd be funny to watch some of them get shit on, dotcha think?

Mod's speaking: #XAZ

[andy-deer]

I gotcha

[kittleskittle]

I'm not deep in the Horizon fandom so every time you post a thing about ship discourse it's like watching a very scary iceberg float by knowing there's shit below the water line. You guys are so strong for dealing with That Bullshit o7

you know, there was a time where it used to be pretty all right - like yeah, I and my friends got some shit for shipping niloy, even got stalked and harassed by one particularly unhinged individual, but it was nothing like it is now.

the overwhelming biphobia of the past year or so since BS came out especially has killed my desire to want to contribute anything more to this fandom publicly, so i'm not sure how strong i really am lol, but thank you!!

As someone who had a... Lively discussion with someone on the dev post about how yes actually UMAs are an incredibly important part of the site and just because you don't engage with them doesn't make you right they just are the most willfully ignorant people imaginable. Like they're just borderline delusional about the actual impact of UMAs or people's concerns over mass pings. I just had to stop engaging with them because they were just speaking nonsense to me.

And they claimed to have used the site for 10 years and had NEVER heard of GASP. In 10 years they had never interacted with UMAs outside of fest stuff. In their minds it was just a thing people do on the side. It's not an economic insengive to thousands of players and probably the devs themselves. If they fuck up GASP there will be actual financial reprocussions for FR.

The game won't dissolve into a puff of smoke or anything but where do you think the gems are coming from that pay for the developers beyond the originals who do it for the love huh? Who's paying the code monkeys? People buying gems on UMAs and G1s. Just drove me absolutely insane. I almost blocked them I was so mad.

Your arguments with that person is part of why I typed up my post! I wasn't about to argue with them on site, and I get a lot more mileage out of posting to my own blog than in an on-site journal. It is truly deeply infuriating to see people say 'what about x amount of users who drive the economy of the site' and have the response from casual players be 'well actually you guys are a minority and therefore have zero impact on the site at all'.

I can count on one hand the number of skinmakers on site with my level of success, it's true, and it's also true that skinmakers in general make up maybe 0.1% of the player population. But it's just false that if all skin artists disappeared overnight the site wouldn't change at all.

Maybe most of the players on Flight Rising are casual, don't do much in terms of events, only participate in dragon sales, list everything on the Auction House, and get most of their currency from gathering/occasional fairgrounds. I can believe that someone can play for 10 years and never heard of GASP or UMAs - that's very feasible to me. But even if that's 99% of the players active ever, that is not 99% of where the actual activity and economy of the site lies. And it's just not something that a casual player can see, let alone comprehend the impact of if they only stick to their own corners of the game. Yes, it's dumb to say the economy will disappear if GASP disappears, but I haven't seen anybody actually say that. I've only seen people poking fun at how 'self important' the idea is that any of this could affect the community at all.

That's why I wanted to let people know - hey, yeah, what you guys are doing is important. Your concerns are important and you should keep giving staff feedback about what is important to you, and how these features could be implemented on site. They're listening to us! We just have to keep letting our voices be heard.

RIP your fucking wallet on Sunday lol

Picture of me and Water Flight this upcoming Sunday:

You are right that my showcase barely scratched the surface with how many awesome entries there are this year. I think I am on like 40 pinglists for skins. This is like if Christmas and taxes had a baby, yet I AM SO HAPPY. The only clog in the machine is the admins shutting off skin submissions on Tuesday...which may give me time to raise more funds. (I got the gems, I just don't want to be at zero lol)

[flowers-of-io]

Got this gorgeous girl from @xaz-fr 's hatchery. Go check them out! Super cute babies.

This is Malinia. A skilled warrior witch who travels with her familiar Enten, who takes the form of a silkie chicken when not in battle.

[bellasdragons]

Sunken Treasures - what do we think? Anything that needs fixing? Added or removed?

Thinking for cost maybe 850g? since it's a bigger skincent. Not up for preorders yet, possibly tomorrow/Monday? I definitely want to sleep on it a bit first just in case there's something I missed or need to change!

Special thanks to @juniaenigmafr, @aberration-abbey, and @xaz-fr for the models!

slightly new and improved Writeblr intro

About me

I'm bb (bibi, and BB are fine but not Bb, that's a writing signature not mine), 30+, queer, she/they, and I like to write.

My fave genres are fantasy, scifi, and romance. Sometimes with historical fiction and slice of life thrown in too.

I have a probably unhealthy amount of OCs and I want all of them to kiss.

I write both fanfic and original stuff.

I mostly post my own writing, writeblr games, and posts that give me crazy OC thoughts to be tagged. I don't reblog a lot of writing advice or self deprecating writer posts because honestly? Couldn't be me.

I did a HUGE writing challenge this year that was an attempt to write 365 1-shots. One a day. I failed but that's okay. I wrote like 200 of them and that's great and I'm proud of myself.

This is a side blog. I follow from @xaz-fr

I love asks and tumblr messages. I do writeblr games but I could really use some writeblr friends to tag in the ones I do get :,D

I'd love to look at your stuff. You should def show me your writing in a reply or reblog :3

Main tags (that aren't WIPs)

#365 - the big year long project. It has some original stuff, and some fanfic. Lots of adult themes. Lots of original spooky stuff. Lots of 'horror and love are the same thing actually'. Things that are Very Adult are posted on AO3 with a link.

#Fey Alliance - catch all tag for my main setting, the Fey Alliance

#rattling - headcanons, world building, story thoughts, character questions, commentary. Mostly any original posts that aren't writing.

WIPs

The Zealous Servant - Dark high fantasy with lots of magic, necromancers, gods, and political drama. The main character Spayar needs to help his friend the crown prince kill the entire royal family before they turn around and do the same to him in order to claim the throne. Very queer, and is written for an adult audience not YA.

Entropy - My main fanfic WIP from the Destiny 2 fandom. Follows my OCs on their journey to bully the fuck out of Shin Malphur; resident Worst Guy Ever. Along the way he gets a hot girlfriend and I force him to have some actual friends because his lone wolf shtick is tired and stupid lol.

Lonos [working title] - This is a backburner one I need to really hash out a bit more. So I'll probably be posting a lot of rattlings about this one. Vaguely middle eastern appearance in setting about a traveling circus where all the players are also mercenaries for hire. Post a massive plague that wiped out almost all the magic users on the continent and the ones that are still around are viewed as cursed or unclean. (I swear I had this idea before the panny :,D) Gonna be a big long gay slow burn. For adult audiences.

Witchbane - Another backburner one I need to churn out some rattlings about. Steampunk set in a country called Ravthica where everyone thinks magic isn't real. When Spencer's parents go missing he's got to start believing in magic real quick when the hag that lives on his family's property tells him witches kidnapped his parents and the only way to get them back is to kill them. But witch hunting isn't exactly easy and he needs the help of some Wild things to find the witches that want his family and their witch hunting dogs all dead. For YA audiences.

I also loved the people who were like 'I can't believe you're all so ungrateful and vitriolic towards staff about the pinglist update! You all should be ashamed of yourself' even tho like 98% of the thread was everyone very interested in the pinglists and we very much want pinglists to succeed! I know I do. But OOF talk about feature incomplete that made everyone very nervous.

Not like staff has never launched something feature incomplete before and been like 'yeah this is how it is now, deal with it until we six it in 1-3 years :)' Because yeah that's nevvvver happened before /s

I've never met anybody pissed about the actual pinglist feature, tbh. I think most of us are ecstatic about the shiny new system. It's definitely made my life easier. It's just a shame that the mass ping sunsetting debate outshadowed out any feedback or excitement people might have felt about the skins revamp, because that's something I'm seriously looking forward to!

[lionsongfr]

You're gonna be so poor buying all these skins that didn't win

I've scrimped and saved for Wavecrest like I usually do, but FUCK ME SO MUCH GOOD ART THIS YEAR AND I'M GOING TO BE BROKE. I think I'm going to end up pinging like 30 artists to see if they will print if they don't win. Prayers that FR admins pick a few (or all of them please) of my very fav's to save my wallet.
