You Want It Darker: Sentence Starters Pt 1

“I need both of you in my life. For my sake, can't you try to get along for five minutes?“

"All I wanted was to do something right, and I fucked it all up. Ironic, huh?"

"I had a nightmare that I woke up, and you were gone. You wouldn't do that, would you?"

“We were supposed to love each other like this - it was always going to happen, don’t you see?”

“Please don’t leave again. I don’t know what I'll do if you leave.“

"You think you’re stronger than this, but you're not - and you don't have to be."

"It's totally natural to feel this way - so let yourself feel."

"I know it hurts, right now. But the pain is only temporary."

"I care about you, and I want to help you. Would it be so terrible to let me help you?"

"I know you're scared. It's okay. I promise you'll feel better afterwards."

"I'll make sure you'll never have to go through anything like this again."

"How are you holding up? You've been very quiet."

"Not ready to talk about it, huh? That's okay - we can just hang out until you are."

"Hey, shh, it's okay... I've got you. We'll get through this together.“

"I know you probably had someone else in mind for this, but I’m the one you've got."

"You could at least try being civil."

“C'mere. You look like you need a hug."

"You smell really good. Was that weird to say? Ah well, I've said it now.”

"I see we're not at the 'joking about it' stage, yet, huh?"

"It's been over an hour. What are you even doing in there?"

"If you haven't drowned, can you turn off the shower before you run our water bill through the roof?"

"Are you... having some sort of breakdown?“

"C'mon, just open the door. You're starting to scare me now."

"I didn't know. I swear I didn't know."

you can call me dearly, and i'm a huge shadows house enthusiast! here you'll find analysis, memes, theories, fanart, and shadows house content in general

don't be afraid to talk to me, my messages and askbox are always open! feel free to tell me about your headcanons, your theories, your favorite characters, send me fanart, etc. i may take a while to aswer, but rest assured that i don't mind and do in fact deeply appreciate it. i'm always happy to make new friends (ﾉ^ヮ^)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧

i'm not... inherently against talking about nsfw (if both you and all the characters involved are adults) or angst featuring sensitive topics (if you treat the topic responsibly and aren't using this as an excuse to be creepy about it), but in both cases you have to ask me first. don't just send me that unnanounced. remember that there's a person on the other side of the screen

if you leave hate, bigoted comments or threats of any kind, be it in my askbox, messages or posts (either my own, or posts of yours talking about me), you will be blocked. so don't even bother wasting your time and energy

overall i hope browsing through my blog is a fun experience! if you need anything tagged, don't hesitate to hit me up

[parkcivconfess]

same anon who wrote about insecure red evbo a few days ago. even MORE simulation angst because i am not well!!!! (also sometimes im calling red evbo just red)

i think worker seawatt should be kinda pathetic and desperate and maybe madly in love with red evbo. he always gets cast as an antagonist or as someone who has to betray the evbo clone in every simulation. it hurts every time but at least its just a simulation, its not the real evbo, its not His evbo that he’s betraying.

maybe after parkciv ended and how successful it was red told him that he did good. that he could take a break for a while, not be in the next simulation cause this one was so long and he must be tired. it made him feel like he actually cared. he must. parkciv has been the most successful one yet, and he’s still willing to give a break to one of his main actors. he must care.

seawatt accepts. he doesnt even apply for a role, he doesnt try to go against reds wishes especially if hes trying to be in seawatts favour by giving him a break.

and then pvpciv does well too. without him in it. he cant help but worry that red will stop giving him roles. he gets desperate, practically begging for one in season 2, begging for reds attention again but he only seems to get ignored. did he do something to make red evbo mad at him? was he not actually good, was he only given a “break” because evbo just didn’t want him anymore?

maybe he sneaks into one of the simulation rooms at night. he’s done this so many times he could do it in his sleep. he starts a new one, hoping he can at least feel like the clone evbo cares, even if its only for a little while. but this once, it doesnt feel real at all. every time hes betrayed or killed a clone it did, and the one time he wants to be happy, the one time he wants to be nice to it it doesnt feel real at all.

the clone doesnt understand what he’s saying about simulations and roles and “the real evbo”. it doesnt understand why seawatt cries and clings to it, but it doesnt push him away.

seawatt wonders if this is what it would feel like to be in reds arms.

-🍷

sbiffles. why does my askbox have to hurt me like this/silly

i adore this also seawatt being the pathetic one outta the two is SOOOO underrated I want evbo to be in love all cute kicking his feet twirling his hair batting his lashes like a highschool girl but seawatt is absolutely completely and utterly WHIPPED for evbo i mean borderline obsessed the “THERE GOES MY BAEBEEEEYYYY!!!!” meme irl im srs

[blahaj-enjoyer-1]

Here's to more art and fics from the both of us!

[historiavn]

ABOUT THE ROLEPLAYER

◈　NAME　 ⋯ 　callie

◈　PRONOUNS　 ⋯ 　she / they

◈　MOST ACTIVE MUSE(S)?　 ⋯ 　&.

VALORUMS: Shi’al Valorum (Star Wars)

HISTORIAVN: Agatha Morrible (Wicked), Ophelia Chronsturn (Fandomless), Anastasia Andrews-Ismay / RMS Titanic (Historical), Sarah Phillips (Liberty’s Kids / Historical), Abraham Lincoln (Historical), Cassandra Fatesworth (Bridgerton), Ethan Clay (Historical), Robert Todd Lincoln (Historical). I blame my Lincoln family muses on FINALLY getting to have free time for making Actual Progress with the musical that I’ve been developing about his presidency 😭

◈　RP PET PEEVES?　 ⋯ 　&.

People who conflate the muse with the writer. I run into this problem ALL THE TIME with my historical fiction centric muses (ESPECIALLY my historical figures, for obvious reasons), and as I always say in my rules, if someone can’t separate the writer and the muse, then they are not mature enough to write with me. For the MILLIONTH TIME — just because the old dead white guys that I write as hold problematic views doesn’t that I endorse or have those views myself <33333333

Forgetting that plotting is collaborative, and expecting me to do all the work. If you want to interact with me, make an honest effort to match my energy and my contributions during the plotting process. Suggest some ideas and concepts of your own; I don’t bite!

◈　EXPERIENCE/HOW MANY YEARS　 ⋯ 　 I am pretty sure that I've been roleplaying since 2016, which was my freshman year of high school. The musical Hamilton was starting to become popular at that time, so that — as well as the adjacent American Revolution community — was my first RPC. George Washington and John Adams were my very first muses, and Celeste Franklin became my first ever original character created for roleplay. Since then, l've written on Instagram, Discord, and Twitter. Tumblr is probably my favorite platform for roleplay.

◈　FLUFF, ANGST, OR SMUT　 ⋯ 　Out of these three, I like writing a perfect blend of them all. However, my favorite type of roleplay is a secret fourth genre — hurt / comfort.

◈　PLOTS OR MEMES　 ⋯ 　Askbox memes all the way! They are a GREAT way to get interactions going, test the waters of a new dynamic, and start new threads! I also like using them as a springboard for the plotting process. When it comes to “plotting”, I perceive it as an umbrella term that encompasses exchanging headcanons about our muses or discussing character dynamics in detail, so to me it is an ongoing process that begins the moment I reach out to you OOC and continues throughout our roleplays. Plotting only ends when interactions between us end.

◈　LONG OR SHORT REPLIES　 ⋯ 　My replies tend to vary in length, and oftentimes these lengths will match your own. It is the substance that matters to me the most — you just have to give me something to work with by having some form of interaction with my character in your response, and I won’t bat an eye about how long it is.

◈　TIME TO WRITE　 ⋯ 　I try to get my responses done throughout the entire day, but the majority of my writing is typically finished in the afternoon, early evening, and right before I go to bed.

◈　ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSES　 ⋯ 　As a writer with multiple muses, the answer is naturally “it depends on the muse”. I’d say that the ones I relate to the most are Shi’al Valorum, Abraham Lincoln (literally why I’m writing a whole entire musical about his struggle with mental health), Sarah Phillips, Emmeline Eisenhower, and maybe Ophelia???

20 questions for fic writers

tagged by @shadoedseptmbr ages and ages ago

tagging uh... i have no fucking clue. anyone who writes! no pressure! please blame me! @fancytrinkets @la-muerta @leahazel @jadesabre301 & ?!?!?

1: How many works do you have on AO3?

178 fics, since this is a fic writer meme.

2: What's your total AO3 wordcount?

1,193,590, with the caveat that that includes a collab fic of 190,409 words of which I was primarily writing only one of three POV characters. (And also one other shorter collab and the minimal amount of words required to describe the podfic/fanmixes.)

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Mostly Shadowhunters (TV) atm, a lot of BioWare Games (especially Dragon Age 2) and then a truly random smattering of smaller games and tiny!fandom prompts back when askbox games were more common here plus Yuletide/Fic Exchange Matches On Unexpected Things. (I think I've broken 20 fandoms on AO3, depending on how one counts the various DA sub-fandoms.)

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

These are all Shadowhunters and Malec fics. The first three are complete, the last two are WIPs.

two are halves of one

My only posted 5+1 fic, a series of outsider perspectives on Alec & Magnus & their very long day of denied cuddles/alone time. 😅

i cannot touch because they are too near

Parabatai Feels & Magic Lore! I wrote this for a Season 3B countdown event, and it's Magnus Being A Nerd and trying to figure out how this parabatai thing works. I snuck Jace and Michael Wayland feels in there kind of sideways too. I do think it's one of the most self-indulgent things I've ever written (epistolary! melancholy comfort! No Plot!) with many thanks to @rutherinahobbit because she helped me land the ending.

with an if in its soul

So I killed Alec off-screen right before the fic starts, and proceeded to keep poor Magnus very upset about it for the following 22k words. (It gets better! I promise! No one stays dead!) I got many angry and wailing comments, I have never been so proud. (This one suffered from very dramatic scope creep while I was trying to write it, which amused tumblr a lot, and this time I have to thank @poemsfromthealley for helping to make it work. And also the blurb, because I just could not figure out how to post it for ages.)

i am for you

Epistolary!Fluff Fic that was supposed to be a bit of a missed connection thing for @pameluke but Alec instead proposed to Magnus on first sight and I just kind of went with that instead. /I am not in charge of the voices in my head

It is the first fic I ever had really break containment and get a lot of engagement/comments/subs/etc. It has been out-kudosed now, obviously as it's #4 on this list, but that's only because I killed the momentum and never finished it. 😅😅😅 ISTFG I am going to finish it some day though!

if broken hearts were whole

From a soulmates/massage combined prompt meme thing ALSO for @pameluke. I got stuck on this one largely because I had three different prequel/s1 retellings in my head at the same time and I kind of tangled them all up too much to get any of them done. I will eventually figure this one out too, but I may have to finish one of the other things to sort of clean my brain out, and I haven't managed that either.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

In theory? I got hung up on a comment from an FTH bidder the year I failed to finish my FTH fic, and didn't want to reply to their comment 'til I wrote their fic?

which doesn't make much sense, but brains are weird, so there we are

someday I'll answer the backlong. it's only like two or three years at this point? 😅😭🤣

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

so about uh... five years ago? there was a really popular gifset format from an Elizabeth Hewer poem called in one timeline and I haven't the faintest idea how to gifset so I wrote a fic for Malec instead. [ao3]

I have written other things which Have Angst, but for me I tend to ease the ending... this is one of the few where I didn't.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Everything Else! (Almost)

I think, as an exercise in the true form of Happily Ever After, I'd have to go with Fine Feathers, which is an epilogue to a Georgette Heyer Regency Romance novel I did for Yuletide 2016.

8. Do you get hate on your fic?

Not usually. I don't even get people yelling at me to update on my WIPs, which may be hateful but isn't the same thing 😅

/and I'm certainly not complaining about either of these things, but I wish I knew how I avoided The Discourse™️so I could do it on purpose

9. Do you write smut?

I used to pretty regularly. I was even known as a smut!fic writer when Dragon Age Fandom and I were mutually more active together. Not so much (on either the writing quantity or the requests for more smut) for Shadowhunters.

10. Do you write crossovers?

Mostly no? I did two very short ficlets for Bingo Squares. I do still believe that Leverage is the Fix-It Fandom that fits everywhere and thus only kind-of counts as a crossover, plus I wrote a Shadowhunters / Inception bit with Ariadne as a Warlock.

I do also enjoy a good fusion fic, aka using a different canon as an AU setting, rather than combining characters from two settings.

For example: Shadowhunters Characters as BAU Agents from Criminal Minds!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I'm aware of? I've seen it happen to co-authors though, and other friends

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! I am still stunned and amazed and delighted by this!

Batty_Blue translated several of my Shadowhunters fics into Russian:

a flower of always i cannot touch because they are too near trust your heart ashes of angels / ashes of roses

And Pomyluna translated 'First Choice' into Polish

13. Have you ever co-written a fic?

Yes!

Only once successfully (aka one and done and finished and posted), and that was entirely thanks to my co-author Raph. 😅 (Against All Odds for @galedekarios back when I knew her as Chignon on an actual forum prior to tumblr. She's who got me onto tumblr, so if you met me here? That's her fault. 🥰)

I have started things with people a few times that never got posted, and there's a massive Mass Effect retelling on potentially permanent hiatus, though all three of us do hold out hope that someday our lives will align again. (Persephone Rising)

14. What‘s your all-time favourite ship?

Me & Sleep

(Sorry, can't do it, can't choose. Beware My Armada. With a couple ancient ship leviathans which can raise themselves from the deep with the slightest provocation.)

15. What’s the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Every thing I have ever posted (except for 12 Moons) is something that I do in fact hold out hope I will eventually finish.

Things I have not started posting are too numerous to count and/or list. Sometimes they come back. Sometimes they are fertilizer for other things that will be written later.

16. What’s your writing strengths?

Dialogue and hopeful melancholy? I get a lot of compliments on emotion/mood, and I do feel like I am usually pleased with the, idk, vibes of most of what I write.

17. What’s your writing weaknesses?

Plot & structure! What is? How do? What do you mean I have to have things happen rather than just reacting all the time?!?

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I have done it with mixed success and there are definitely ways to do it more accessibly than I did. It can add a lot, but you do have to think about the execution.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Uh. I think Lois & Clark back when I was a teen!jilly. Either that or Sailormoon when I was a slightly older teen!jilly?

In terms of posting in public, it was Bioware something, either Mass Effect or Dragon Age: Origins back around when Thing 2 was born. And he's 14 now, so... 😅

Orion's Belt, I think? I didn't originally post it on AO3, and then I deleted myself off the internet for awhile, and then I re-uploaded everything, and I'm bad at time in the best of circumstances, which that clearly was not, so it might not have been that one specifically but it was close.

20. Favourite fic you’ve ever written?

I CAN'T CHOSE JUST ONE WTF

As a formative event/process, I have a certain enduring fondness for Lost for Words, which was like the first fic I really wrote while in fandom... I was social about it and posted while I was writing and finished (eventually) and it is still the longest single story I have ever written. (Tho I am for you will beat it out when I finish that.)

It's not particuarly good from the perspective of who I am as a writer some dozen years later, but it's sincerely meant cotton candy, at least. 🤣

Send 'dying' for your muse having to watch mine die in front of them. How are they coping? How are they reacting?

Send 'dying +' for the reverse

Introduction

~Ello, ello, I’m duskspring, but you can call me whatever you’d like as long as it’s not hateful.

~For privacy reasons I won’t go into too much detail, but I’m a European adult, use all pronouns and am, in fact, very neurodivergent.

~This account is basically solely themed around the band Ghost, though some other hyperfixations might slip in from time to time.

~I mostly write headcanons and fanfiction and make crappy memes.

~MY ASKBOX IS OPEN. So if you ever wanna share your headcanons, or would like for me to write out in more detail your headcanons or fic ideas feel absolutely free to submit them (please I need inspiration lmao).

~Also absolutely feel free to message me if you wanna talk about whatever. I’d love to speak to more people directly but I’m shy :’)

~This blog is 18+. I interact with and make some NSFW content, so beware!
