Cause I'm curious, and nosey, and I love hearing your thoughts.

What is a line you have written that you feel didn’t get the recognition it should have, what fic is it from and why did you like it? - 🦋

It’s actually a line from Part 2 of To Love A Dragon! No one mentioned it and I’m honestly surprised. It’s one of Rhaenerys’ lines and one I think about all the time.

“I do not believe in the kind of divinity spoken by snakes”

I thought this was such an interesting line because while Rhaenerys comes from a family known to have prophetic dreams, she does not believe that Eadred actually had some prophetic vision.

Also, dragons and snakes are serpentine creatures, both of which are considered signs of the devil by the church (it’s well known in those days pagans/polytheists were considered devil worshippers and barbarians). So having Rhaenerys, a dragon lord who follows a polytheistic religion, compare Abbot Eadred to a snake, a long standing symbol of Lucifer/Satan, was her way of both insulting him and calling him out on his own hypocrisy.

Thank you for asking me this!

ooooooo love your ask game, great idea!! what's your memories for 1 and 209?

Thank you <3 I'm excited people like it!

1. Is Glorious by Glyph ft Matthew Corey from Fellowship

My fav list is chronological, so this is the newest addition. I only know Glyph by name so far but I LOVE Matthew's voice (there are too many Matthew's I like lmao). Since it's so new I'll widen the net a bit and say I connect Matthew/Fellowship with car rides, especially when I'm alone driving in the countryside. Their songs are incredibly fun to sing along to and it's pretty much my voice range (minus the falsetto). So my memory is sitting in my mom's little blue Škoda cruising along the fields around my hometown.

209 is Crazy, Mad, Insane by Beast in Black

This was when I first got Spotify and was just really getting into Power Metal as a genre around 2020. I remember listening to this album while driving my mom, aunt, and grandparents around one day. There's a local company making biscuits and similar, who have a store next to their factory that we drove to pick stuff up at, before going out to eat in a restaurant in an old mill. My grandparents are both gone now, but it was a nice summer day that I loved :)

hello fellow pir8!

Hello matey!!

[wolves-against-the-world]

I'm confused, if Sasha and Milo are brothers then why did they use different last names? Or did I not read that right?

That's a good catch, I wanted to talk about that anyway. So I assume you're referring to the names I tag them with sometimes, Zacharias von Wolfenstedt and Matthis von Halberg. Matthis and Zacharias are probably as close to birth names as you'll get considering phonetic shifts. They're the names they used the longest, primarily during the time in the Army, and still use in more serious or intimate settings. (Sasha still calls Milo "Matti" sometimes, which nobody else is allowed to do, even Attila.)

If you know how last names worked back then, you also know they weren't really fixed, just an easy identifier and could change if the community thought it necessary.

Both their last names are place monikers, pointing to a place of origin and on the surface it does not make sense why that would be different if they're brothers. The thing is, they're not blood-related and even if they were they look so different people wouldn't have believed it.

Both of them used the moniker von Halberg when they joined their first crusade and after they'd been turned. Halberg is a peak in the Saar region of Germany, which is the place Milo usually claimed he comes from (he really doesn't know for sure). Sasha was actually given the name von Wolfenstedt by others. Wolfenstedt translates to "wolf's place" or "lair". After being turned, Sasha very quickly made a name for himself by being a ruthless and effective strategist as well as being a skilled fighter.

People said he was so good at being a werewolf because he was in fact raised by wolves. Which was absolutely a racist jab, but Sasha's approach was always that no tool is too low as long as it was effective. And also that people leave you alone if they're sufficiently scared of you. By the time the army splintered, Zacharias von Wolfenstedt was more of a bogeyman than a real person. In modern day, Sasha and Milo mostly use the same last name, because it makes paperwork easier.

Thank you for the question!

[metal-album-of-the-week]

Hey! May I ask questions 12, 19 & 25 from the Spotify Wrapped game? 🙂

Hi :D Thank you for asking !

12: A song you feel should be higher up

Most things are as expected but just in relation to other songs on the albums I'm surprised Flight of the Ravens (Brothers of Metal) and Spider Silk (Nightwish) were not higher up - The Day of.... somehow ranked higher than Spider Silk which Unlike way more and thus should have listened to more often 🤔 But who knows.

19: Is your most streamed song of your favorite artist your favorite of them?

Sort of yes - my favorite (at least from the new album) is currently hovering between 1589 and Sinners of the Seven Seas but my "favorite" song is hard to pinpoint anyway. But I'm not unhappy with it at all it's a banger.

25: Favorite lyric from song #100

That just happens to be one of the few without lyrics but I will post it for when you want to feel mysterious

My #99 has lyrics though and my favorite has to be

"And if you think you're doing well/ Maybe that means you're one of them/ Are you the hunter/ Or the lion?"

Thank you!

🏴‍☠️ It's been a hot minute

I'm finally on break and got around to finishing this, two months past when I wanted to, but I like how it turned out. FNaF isn't my biggest interest anymore but with the release of the movie, I wanted to see how much I've improved since 2014 (it's a lot just take my word for it-).

[hazard-c-horror]

I feel like if the "maternity chip au," played out to the patters of normal SAM'S episodes I feel like there would be an episode where Eclipse talks to puppet about being a mother. Like "Hey you where a bad mother that abandoned your child, but you got him to forgive you for your horrible actions, how do I do that?"

( ⚫_⚫) (^_^ 💧)

(P.s I love your art.)

Puppet at first would go along with it as a joke, yet would still give good advice in the process.

But, over time Puppet and Eclipse will form a sort of Mom group. Half promising to watch over the others child/children if their was a problem

Eclipse slightly helps Puppet in return (he’s too prideful to fully help). Giving his own input on things that are sometimes actually helpful.

While Puppet helps with emotional parts Eclipse doesn’t understand.

And with the more… troublesome parts about being a parent

Also thank you for the compliment <3

Hello

Can I give a mini ship for Captain Foxy?🙂

Hello!

he probably got over toy so he wont play with it, but he definitely will keep it neatly in his pirate cove.

[foxyanon]

For the writer ask:

✍️, 🎬, 💭, 🚦

Have a nice evening 💜

Hello beloved!!

✍️ What’s your ideal writing setup?

Snacks, a couple drinks (both cold and hot because I’m weird like that), and some headphones in. I can get comfy anywhere, but as long as I have that and I’m not being distracted by the baby, I can almost always churn out a few hundred or a thousand words for a fic.

🎬 If a movie or show were based on your fic, which fic would you choose and who would you fancast?

I’d probably pick To Love A Dragon, everyone playing themselves from TLK and I actually have the fan casts for the ASOIAF characters here. The only addition would be for Ser Elwood Graves, and I’d have him be an older Eoin Macken!

Also, totally forgot Merlin had a fucking STACKED cast 😅😅 I forgot Tom Ellis and Joe Dempsie were in the show

💭 What inspires you and your writing?

Random daydreams I have, other peoples work (which they know about) and music.

🚦What sort of endings do you prefer to write: ambiguous, bad, happily ever after, etc.?

Happy endings, no doubt. I deal with enough sorrow on a day to day that I don’t want my fics to have sad or bad endings.

This is a weird one. I think I found these guys on YouTube at some point? They're allegedly doing power metal (says Wikipedia) but that's not what it sounds like to me lol.

This makes me think of one very specific stretch of road - going out of town there's the entrance to the next village and going a bit further the other entrance to the village has two speed cameras that have been there for absolute ages. Because the road is so open and there's nothing there you can always tell who's gonna run into the trap because they'll be non-local license plates that a driving way too tight and when the road opens they'll overtake you and BANG.

Which doesn't really have anything to do with the song, but it was playing when I last saw that happen. Don't speed where you don't know the road.
