I’ve been thinking about my WIPs and the future of this blog.

TLDR: 1) Nothing is changing drastically. 2) I’m still working on The Mad Witch. 3) I would like to begin a shift away from HP-related media.

I have multiple WIPs I’m chipping away at most of the time:

The Mad Witch: Temporarily stalled while I handle major life stuff (nothing bad, just a lot). The next chapter is in a tricky editing stage, and I don’t have the spoons to polish it into something passable enough to post. But no worries. This fic is my baby. I’m not going to drop my baby.

Rosemary Reaper: Rough draft is maybe halfway written—though it is truly, truly rough in a way TMW drafts can never be. When I don’t have the energy for TMW, I work on this fic since I can just write as poorly as I want. No one’s going to see the finished product for a long time, but I look forward to sharing it eventually.

“Writing on the Walls”: Anyone who’s been following me for a while knows I usually participate in a fandom event over the holidays. This year, in place of an HPHM event, I’m participating in the Fallout 4 Big Bang instead. That fic will be posted sometime in spring, so keep an eye out.

By Arrow, By Teeth: This is a new one—and an Arcane fic at that. Before you cry, “Oh no! She’s started another WIP!” I would like to clarify that I am planning one; I’m not writing it yet. As it stands, I won’t for a while. I don’t feel the need to rush, especially since I’m incredibly happy with how the series ended.

Which ties in with my next thoughts. For some time, I’ve been wrestling with how I might eventually shift my blog away from its association with HP-related media. I love The Mad Witch. I will finish it. But it’s become next to impossible to reconcile my love of the fic’s world with JKR’s ever worsening harm. After the fic wraps up, I’d like to branch in other directions.

I started the process a bit ago with Rosemary Reaper and my other Fallout fics, but those have their own separate blog, which doesn’t really affect this one. By Arrow, By Teeth is a nice opportunity to change that. I’ll continue to build its bare, bullet-pointed bones, plotting it out in as much detail as my master’s thesis, so that when I finally do write it, I can do so at the drop of a hat. The hat in this case being the end of TMW.

That being said, there’s still ~20 chapters left in TMW, so change is still a ways away. When it eventually does happen, though, I hope you’ll consider sticking around. I have some unabashedly queer projects in the works that you might just enjoy.

ladyknightthebrave came out with a new video on Black Sails, which means it was time for my annual rewatch of Treasure Planet (I'm Still Here got me sobbing AGAIN if anyone wants to know) but now I gotta ask:

Extremely excited that my J-Horror Rising Boxset from Arrow Videos is finally here! Did I buy this boxset just so that I could have a copy of Noroi: The Curse? Hell yes.

i just think that Wild should come back to the chain with a magic rock, I mean it's not like he would be the only one with a magic rock, Look at Twi's shadow crystal or Wind's walkie-talkie necklace, and what would we call all of Legends rings if not wearable magic rocks? The ocarina of time? MAGIC ROCK with some holes in it. You know what Hyrule's magic sword is made of? THAT'S RIGHT! MAGIC ROCKS

And guess what was left behind with no explanation in totk, that had a whole quest attached to it that stood in parallel with a bunch of other versions of the same scene where someone gets a magic rock? MINERU'S secret stone, SPIRIT SAGE LU WILD LETS GO

Oliver dying not once but twice in crisis and the teams first thought when j’onn returns their memories of the multiverse being to have felicity search for him. I AM SORRY????

I like Green Arrow (2001) a normal amount

Fun thing abt making trans characters is that (usually) they come up with their own names, so it becomes a character building thing. What would this character name THEMSELF? What does that say about them? One of my favourites I’ve done with an OC is a oracle who named itself fucking ‘Cassandra’. Peak character ’show don’t tell’ bc you can extrapolate a lot from what a character is willingly choosing to name themselves! :)

So remember two seconds ago when I said I would create an outline for an Arcane fic and see where it goes? Well, I’m still not done, but uh…

This fic is going to be forty chapters again, isn’t it?

thoughts about these teeth images below

A: you can see how UL4 is a little bit palatal here, also the tiny space between UL3 UL4

B: this is one of the only clear photos i found of his right side for some reason. UR2 looks almost level with UR1 but i think its just the camera angle. his flat canine is interesting, it makes it hard to tell what angle its at and also makes me curious about his occlusion (notice his lower teeth are not visible in any of these pictures). the color of UR4 makes me wonder if theres an amalgam filling in it but thats not my area of expertise. hes smiling at a naked statue btw

C: i cant believe this picture exists and i lost my mind when i found it. his arch shape is tapered, narrow in the front and wider in the back. despite how many teeth appear to be in this image you can only barely see his molars (in part due to the low contrast)

D: here you can again see his arch is fairly narrow in the anterior. U3-3 is well aligned regardless. canines distally rotated because of the arch shape. looks like palatal torque on U4s, more on UR4 than UL4

E: this picture is what inspired me to pursue this entire creepy activity because it totally looks like you can see molars but you cant actually distinguish anything because of the shadow. if you turn up the contrast its just noise. anyway you can see the UL3 UL4 gap

F: UR2 & its relationship with UR1 is clearly visible

G: hehe :3

H: you can see the vertical leveling, UR2 higher than surrounding teeth (though its slightly exaggerated by the angle, compare image B where its diminished by the angle). his premolars are so pointy. on his U1s it could just be how they are and always have been but i think you can see a little bit of wear on the mesioincisal from the infamous lip piercing. its hard to tell but i think his midline is centered if not slightly to his left, which because he has (just a little) crowding on the right and (just a little) spacing on the left makes me curious where his molars are

I: i like his very functional use of the UR2 here. you can see the lip piercing wear like image H

J: based on images C and D we can tell that the visible part of UL5 here is the palatal cusp. you can see the buccal torque on UR2. i feel like this image should help me understand the tip/torque of UR3 (see also image B) but the camera angle is so odd that i actually still have no idea whats going on

K: UR2 buccal torque is very clear as well as the UL3 UL4 gap (i would guess maybe 0.2 or 0.3 mm). his U2s are the same size if not wider than his U3s which is not very common (see also image B). you can maybe see the wear from the lip piercing again
