as yet untitled

~

we were supposed to grow old together

had become content

in our rhythms and routines

laughed easily

read each other's thoughts

knew each other's songs

danced

slowly

in the kitchen

while dinner was cooking

~

god, how i miss you

~

until you came along

i never wanted to grow old

~

now that you have gone

i can't imagine ever wanting that again

always the rebel

i chafe against the constraints of my own survival

~

there are times i wish for nothing more than to be weak

vulnerable

seen

heard

understood

~

i wish for the release of utter collapse

falling

being caught

~

but i hang midair

lost

and lost

and lost

~

we were supposed to grow old

together

we were supposed to keep growing through life

~

there are times i wish for nothing more than to be known by another person

~

even as i grow

into this single self

~

Is this my best comic ever?? Nope. Do I think I characterized either of these two particularly well in this comic?? Not really. Did I spend an unreasonable amount of time on it to the point that it would be a waste to not post it?? Yes, yes I did.

I really committed to this one, spent a lot of time on those backgrounds and treated myself to ample suffering with the perspective, which is not my strong suit but I am happy with how it ultimately looks. Yay perspective and background practice!!

(Tbh I shouldn't talk like I think this one sucks, I think I've just been staring at it for so long that my brain has decided it's not good and it's actually way better than I think it is, and honestly I am quite happy with it. The artistic process really is something, isn't it?)

The inspiration was basically me reminding... myself... to take breaks sometimes... by drawing for several hour stints during my only little bits of free time. Which totally tracks. Probably. But I've been rolling around in my brain this idea that Lambert is a very uptight people pleaser and anxious workaholic, but Narinder, at least since adjusting himself to the circumstances (which probably took at least a century, maybe two) has discovered the joys of self care, and has made an active effort to chill tf out. This has not made him any less terrifying to the cultists (save for Lambert's closest disciples), nor has it made him friendlier to really anyone but Lambert (and maybe his siblings), but he sure has found some serious peace of mind. That said, I can't place what his motivations are here. Perhaps he is secretly concerned about Lambert's sanity, because he doesn't want them to turn into what he was, or maybe he's just trying to steal away some quality time with his one and only friend, but regardless of the reason, I spent too much time on this for nobody to see it, dang it.

That said. Enjoy this silly little comic that I spent way too much time on, and I hope this silly comic brings you some joy today.

hmmm thinking about the Old-Story, I'd have to change it a lot for it to work within Alcazar, but at the same time it would possibly result in some more of the geographical and magical world building getting sorted.

I know Alcazar has leylines of magic, along with confluences or 'springs' of power, but it's never been something that's relevant to the stories I've been working on.

But this Old-Story was centred around them. Admittedly they were also drying up, which I can't have if the rest of Alcazar is all hunky-dory, so I'd have to figure out why the effects are isolated to one area/continent, verses across the world.

Can the leylines and confluences shift? could one originally magic rich area be slowly losing their source of power? How does that happen, and why? Is it possible to prevent the shift or reverse the effect?? Reversing the loss of magic was the driving force behind Old-Story, so figuring out how the leylines work in general would be key to figuring out if this story could work in Alcazar.

also the slight hiccup that in this story there are only mentions of humans and Fae thanks to it being an alt-earth originally. sooo introducing a fuck ton of species from Alcaza makes it a tad more complicated...

There’s something odd when I’m watching comedy shows. I always flinch whenever someone mentions trans people. And if I had to guess why, it’s because I’m so used to shows making fun of them that when there’s one which doesn’t it feels odd. But a good kind of odd.

To explain, on Tuesday I watched As Yet Untitled, the second episode. And the story right at the end had a trans person in it, and throughout the story I was waiting for someone in the panel to make a “haha trans people aren’t real” joke. Which low-key kinda sucks because I don’t think they’re all bad people. So I was pleasantly surprised when the joke ending up being that a different person not on the poll misheard “they/them” as “Dave”, with no comment towards the trans person’s right to exist. No jokes at their expense, just a joke making fun of drunk Irish men.

So I guess im worried becaus I’ve been burned before with these sorts of jokes. But usually it turns out that no, trans people are just a neutral party. Nothing for them, or against them. Which I like. They just exist. Because we just do. Anyway I found the joke funny, but that may just be because I’m also a trans person who uses they/them pronouns (although I prefer the term nonbinary but that’s neither here nor there).

Anyway As Yet Untitled is good. I’m enjoying it so far. And also its spin-off Bauer’s Bar is good. I like all the references in the taps.

great week to be a kendrick fan

My Mystery Project already has 10k. And I'm not even halfway through chapter 2.

Yeah, this is going to take a while...

I have no time or energy to write this right now, but imagine Leia in the Double Agent Vader 'verse, sent back in time to the Clone Wars. She knows the general history of the war and how it ended, but her father died before he could tell her anything significant she might need to know going forward. And maybe she doesn't really need to know that Count Dooku was a Sith Lord, but that's certainly something she wouldn't have learned on her own until someone mentions it in the past (it's Ahsoka). And Leia already knows that Palpatine is a Sith Lord.

And suddenly, she gets it. She understands the Clone Wars. Of course it destabilized the galaxy and allowed Palpatine to grab power — but with him on one side and his apprentice on the other, that has to mean that he engineered it. To destabilize the galaxy, give him an army, allow him to grab power, and kill off as many Jedi as possible in such a way that no one would ever suspect it.

Like, we already know this, but imagine Leia realizing it. Imagine her in her early twenties, first fighting Depur and his military with everything she's got and now helping in the Clone Wars in any way she can, and imagine her realizing just how much of her reality was engineered by one man. How much pain and death he's wrought, not as Emperor but before that, and when she's right in the thick of it. All the soldiers she's seen cut down, just to build a reality controlled by a monster.

Imagine Anakin Skywalker being the one to comfort her when she doesn't react well. The father of her best friend. The man who reminds her eerily of Ekkreth (and maybe, just maybe, he really is Ekkreth, just young and unfinished). And maybe it's her reaction to the revelation that sets things in motion, a cascade of revelations that will culminate in her being introduced, finally, to the woman she recognizes as her mother...

a little preview as to their interactions early on in the as of yet unnamed RWRB lestappen AU.

Green eyes that are glaring at him. ‘Which Disney prince are you cosplaying as?’ Max asks.

‘This is traditional-‘

‘Right so from the middle ages?’ He interrupts a prince, which he is totally not allowed to do.

‘Well, that’s where your family would like to go back to, non?’

‘And it’s the bit that your family never left.’ Max says, aware of how his voice has gone cold. ‘Don’t you have a cousin to marry? How many proposals do you get per day, huh, prince charming?’ Max can see Daniel approaching them from the corner of his eye. He looks concerned, probably for Max’s reputation or something, like that isn’t ruined already.

Charles squares his shoulders. He’s an inch shorter than Max and that inch matters when you’re the kind of basically-enemies that they are. ‘At least people want to marry me, I can’t imagine the pain of the poor soul that has to spend the rest of their life with you.’

How're we feeling, too harsh? Just right? I mean early on they really are very bitch to each other no?

Thirsty Fuck it Friday 🪩

Tagged by @tizniz for Thirsty Thursday and @daffi-990 for Fuck it Friday. And let me just say... go read their snippets if you haven't because 🔥🔥🔥

okay! so, two tag days, two snippets... right? a little Buddie here, a little Lutalia there. bon appetit!

from debatably (i use that so loosely lmao) sfw watch my shattered edges glisten:

Whatever Eddie thought he was going to see tonight– this was not it. He was prepared for flowing, graceful, and ethereal. For simultaneously muted and vibrant blending together in what could almost be described as an erotic ballet.   This, however– it’s loud and bold. Like being thrust into the daylight after years of darkness, or an endless storm, sending the shadows scattering.  Arsen steps out to music that begins with roughly ten seconds of synthesized horns before melting into an intense beat. He’s forgone his usual long sleeved mesh tee, wearing only a black chest harness on top. Even that’s slightly different, using a shiny patent leather instead of a matte finish. It hugs his muscles perfectly, with horizontal straps encasing his pecs and a singular vertical strap down the middle that disappears under matching booty shorts that showcase his thick thighs. Normally, Arsen seems to tease at whatever’s hiding beneath his clothes. Just enough of an outline to make Eddie wonder. Tonight there is no hinting. There’s an obvious bulge under the skin tight attire, further highlighted by the way he drags his palms up his quads and deliberately frames it with his fingers. Like he’s showing off. Strutting around like a peacock looking to prove he’s the best mate.

Buck’s music 😏

And some definitely nsfw untitled Lutalia (they are strangers at this point and Lucy hasn't given up her name):

Her right hand slips over Nat’s abdomen, past the hem of her dress until she’s grazing Nat’s inner thigh. A torturous barely there touch that sets her alight. Fuck.  How did she let herself go so long without this? How did she get so lost in the business of people dying that she denied herself the chance to live? Nat lets out a breathy whine, already just this side of desperate.  The woman nibbles her ear, chuckling darkly. “Impatient, are we?”  “Y-yeah. Yes.” Corset moans, somehow holding Nat closer. “Goddamn, what a fucking dream you are. Bet you’re all wet for me, too, aren’t you?” Nat knows she is, can feel the slickness between her legs. All she’s able to manage is a nod in response.  Corset hums appreciatively, tracing an invisible path up, up, up.  The prospect of relief is so near, Nat buzzes with excitement, eagerly anticipating the moment she’ll finally be touched the way she wants. Short nails scrape along her skin, toying with the seam of her underwear. She’s never been more grateful for being low on clean laundry and being forced to choose a thong tonight.  Except Corset pulls away then and Nat whines. A high pitched undignified thing that should leave her drowning in shame if she wasn’t so turned on.  “Don’t you worry. You’re getting what’s coming to you. Just gonna make a few adjustments first.” Corset deftly unzips the back of Nat’s dress, allowing the front to drop, exposing her breasts. Sleek leather and ribbon presses into her spine while Corset grins salaciously, rolling each nipple between her fingers. Corset’s other hand brushes over her swollen, sensitive clit through damp lacy fabric.  Nat meets her eyes in the mirror, pleading for more.  “Christ, just look at yourself, baby. Look how beautiful you are for me.” Nat does and fuck. She looks as debauched as she feels. Tits out and makeup smeared, letting a complete stranger be in control of her pleasure.
