#a werecat in london

[i-am-thornqueen]

I finally did it. I finally wrote the chapter I've been waiting years to write!

This is the true turning point in the story.

This is the chapter where you all begin to learn the real story eight years in the making. Or three hundred years in the making, depending on your perspective.

Well damn… @i-am-thornqueen outdid herself with this one…

Guess it’s only fair to turn myself in for my part in these delightfully sinful heinous acts.

Also, as a bonus, I joked that this was the most amount of clothing I had drawn Mari in to date, and dearest ThornQueen feared I was veering toward the straight and narrow. So naturally, I had to reassure her that was simply not the case, and offered as penance my best piece of art I have ever created.

Hi everyone

So I’ve been following the project since 2018ish but didn’t really follow around Tumblr (here) and the other places. Since AO3 is dealing with the spam bots, I guess I’ll come join in and meet everyone else here. 

I last read Chapter 15 in Monsters of Paris. Was the fanfic updated past that yet?

One of the games in my month-long Hidden Gems Sale (also known as the the I'm unemployed pity party) is Fear the Taste of Blood. It's an asymmetric game using playing cards and dice to tell a story inspired by classic movie monsters: towering aristocratic vampires, frightful werewolves, constructed creatures and invisible fiends.

Throughout play you’ll record the attacks of the monster, how the survivors try to fight back and deal with the horror they are facing.

By default the game plays 3; one player acting as The Survivors, one player acting as The Monster and one player acting as the Night they're going through. It accommodates plenty of different sizes though.

It's based on the rules of Beyond the Rift via Anyone Can Wear the Mask.

There are rules for creating your own setting, monster and survivors but the game also comes with three pre-written scenarios. I sourced the art from old public domain horror magazines and comics.

Werecat by Night is werebeast story at an ice skating competition, with the human form of the Werecat among the survivors.

In The Widower of Count Dracula an all queer cast, including Jonathan and Mina Harker's grown up child, faces down the late Dracula's lover in post war London.

Man-Made Phantom is a mashup of the Invisible Man and haunted house stories, as well The Old Dark House.

I played both Werecat by Night and Man-Made Phantom at GenCon (with an expanded cast of 5/6 players including me) and had a lot of fun both times. Our Werecat by Night ended with the figure skating judge burning the Werecat to death with a flower and then a troubled skater choosing to take the blame for the attacks.

Here's a video from Philippa Mort talking about the game some more and recommending it for dark and spooky nights.

So yeah you can get 20% off as part of the sale or bundle all the Hidden Gems together for $40. I'll try and do some posts about the rest that's on offer this month.

Hey Cap!!

It's been a Good Long While since I last sent an ask, life is so bloody busy. I've never begrudged you for taking your time to write new chapters (whenever you update it's just an absolute treat that I look forward to reading <3), but I'm now actually writing out my own stories and By God do I understand *why* it takes so long better now. This shit is so much fun but it takes sooo much time.

However! It has also given me a new appreciation for how much comments and stuff can be nice to read, so I've been working on writing better comments which are more comprehensive :3

Anyway! This is a really round about way in saying; life is stressful and starting college is wild, and at some point throughout the years I've found that rereading OM and PN has become a sort ritual to do when stressed. I've always got new questions, or notice details I'd passed over before whenever I read again...

Sooo, if you'd be interested I can send asks with new appreciation or observations plus lore questions :3?

Oh, and! I'm curious if you've ever read A Werecat In London by ThornQueen? It's fantastically written and has a unique plot! I think it's one of the only other fics (that I've read) aside from PN and OM that has extensively gone into the magical aspect of MLB. More specifically how the Kwami and miraculous *actually* work -with the Kwami having a more eldritch god vibe than silly animal companion energy- and the ramifications of that, and it has a thoroughly in depth magical community that is revealed and then explored.

It is rather explicit so it's chill if that puts you off, but it's one of my favourite examples of urban fantasy in miraculous fics so I'd be interested to hear what you think of it :)

ID LOVE TO READ AND ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS AND OBSERVATIONS!!!!!! The asks youve sent over the years have made me so unearthly happy and when IM stressed with my work Ive found myself rereading your reactions to the chapters and feeling better about what I've achieved

I think ive seen that one scroll by when looking for new fics to read and while it being explicit might prevent me from checking it out Im glad to see theres more deeply written magic fics out there!!!

Miraculous Fic Shoutout #13

A Werecat in London by ThornQueen

38 Chapters. This fic is a TRIP. When I first found this fic, I didn't read it for a while because I wasn't looking for crazy AU stories. But MAN I'm glad I read it!

“After an unfortunate encounter with an akuma while in London, England on a business trip as Adrien Agreste, Chat Noir is forced to deal with an extremely unexpected, and furry, consequence. Can Ladybug help him return to his normal self? Or will he be stuck for the rest of his life getting in touch with his wild side?”

A Werecat in London by ThornQueen ( @i-am-thornqueen )

After an unfortunate encounter with an akuma while in London, England on a business trip as Adrien Agreste, Chat Noir is forced to deal with an extremely unexpected, and furry, consequence. Can Ladybug help him return to his normal self? Or will he be stuck for the rest of his life getting in touch with his wild side?

It’s done!! ♪☆＼(^０^＼) ♪(／^-^)／☆♪

(Oh my god this beast was started in 2016)

Well, if you haven’t managed to read this one yet, if a magic heavy, cursed werecat Adrien, season 1 inspired, core four centric fic that earns its mature rating sounds up your ally, give this a shot.

Spoilery-ish pic for chapter 37

Adrien looked up at them in awe. “Is this what you really look like?”

“No,” Tikki replied, her words forming from a mouth full of light. The ground shook. Adrien felt her speak inside of him, deeper than his bones. “These are the closest forms that you might understand us as.”

I was told by the lovely folks in the Marichat server to read A Werecat in London, (written by @i-am-thornqueen). So I am. Sketched a few werecat Chats on a whim. So enjoy my impulsiveness.

*comes stumbling in from nowhere like the long lost father of a character on an overly dramatic afternoon soap opera*

So, I know I've been gone a while, but if I post chapter 25 of The Monsters of Paris, would you forgive me?

[cray-2-the-z]

Last one, I promise!

[nrd4lyfe]

(very early) WIP 3/15/23 It's taken me A While, and might take a while yet, but I've got something in the works and I'm excited about it! Thank you @i-am-thornqueen for that banger of an update to The Monsters of Paris!

[celleryeller]

Got incredibly bored and made another joke

Go read A Werecat in London (and The Monsters of Paris) by @i-am-thornqueen on AO3

[i-am-thornqueen]

Hi @banderalife4, if you're wondering about the Miraculous Ladybug fanfic The Monsters of Paris, it was updated 22 May with chapter 16. Chapter 17 is currently giving me a lot of difficulties, but I hope to have it up later this month. ^_^

Inspired & as thanks to @i-am-thornqueen for the surprise updates recently of her “A Werecat in London” fic that I fell in love with a few years ago. You can read her wonderfully mystical piece here~  ❤

I hope I managed to capture here at least a fraction of how much I love your writing, although I took some liberties with how it was pictured ; w;

“Hello, My Lady.”

“Hello, mon minou.”
