It was a much quieter month on the writing front. I managed 43,000 words by some miracle, across a bunch of different stories.
A reminder that enrolment into the Merch Tier to get the May/June rewards is still valid until mid February!
*
On the writing side, I wrote across multiple stories: Palmarosa, Constellations, Underline the Black, and Underline the Blue.
*
I had to step back on posting for my own health/sanity. And I'm taking the first two weeks of January off from posting chapters. I'll still be writing, but in between raising a puppy and also just general burnout, I'm still putting some mega health-preservation in place so I don't get really sick.
You will mostly notice this in the form of one Underline the Black chapter not going up each month, to give me a Sunday-to-Sunday stretch with no chapter updates. I will still be active and around! These aren't holidays from writing or interacting with you all, just from the schedule itself. :D
*
For those who remember the Merchantverse novel Tradewinds, this is coming in book / e-book form to Patreon and Ream only in the Gary+Efnisien Tier or higher. It is a completed Fae Tales Verse story, that focuses on merchant fae in the southern hemisphere, and Seelie vs. Unseelie merchant traders. This will come in January 2024.
*
I'll see you all in January 2024! Which is in one hour! Thanks so much for making this year incredible! :D

Fae Tales - 36/? - Underline the Black - Efnisien/Gary
Title: Underline the Black Rating: Explicit Pairing: Efnisien ap Wledig/Dr Gary Konowalous Tags: Hurt/Comfort, Angst, Darkfic, Disturbing themes, Omegaverse, Alpha/Omega, Medical experimentation, Medical trauma, Dominance/Submission, Dystopian universe, Forced bonding, Forced relationship, Imprisonment, Nonconsensual medical procedures, PTSD, Flashbacks, Nightmares, Chronic illness, Mating cycles/Heats, Knotting, Miscommunication, Trauma recovery, Mind control, Child Abuse, Hope, Hopeful ending.
Summary: Efnisien ap Wledig is an omega born into an all-alpha family. Abandoned by his birth mother and raised by his aunt, he is subjected to a lifetime of medical experimentation and brainwashing and believes himself to be an alpha. But the experiments begin to fail, and he is abandoned yet again to an Omega Rehabilitation Facility, where the family expects he will be retrained into the ‘perfect omega’ and placed in an arranged marriage, or be eliminated if this is no longer possible.
The Facility don’t know about the experiments, and Efnisien doesn’t even know why he’s in there in the first place, since he’s an alpha…isn’t he? One thing’s for certain, he definitely doesn’t need an alpha companion, no matter what the staff at the facility seem to think.
Underline the Black - Chapter 36 - Not This Again @ AO3
In which Efnisien goes in for surgery, and Gary deals with unpleasant memories around his past lover, and what it it was like to be in a hospital with him at the end of his life. Temsen makes some horrific discoveries regarding Crielle's surgical incompetence.

I've been rereading palmarosa, and I think my first go around their first kiss didn't register to me fully because so much had just happened, but on my second read I definitely was like HOLY SHIT THEY JUST KISSED!! It seems like a bizarre thing for me to have not registered at first, but I'm delighted this time :D I hope all is well for you!
Ahaha he really stealthed in with it! It's like a paragraph mention and then it's gone :D
Honestly I can understand missing it a lot of stuff was happening at the time dsalkjfdsa

Our online writing group is meeting up today! (Our very ungodly tongue-in-cheek name is 'The Creationists' because we create stuff e.e)
But that means I should be able to smash out at least one (and maybe more) Underline the Black chapter.
I just want to do co-op on 4TheWords but they released new quests and now, alas, I cannot co-op, lmao. (This will only make sense for people who play 4TW dsalkjfdsa)

I have a terrible headache and was very busy feeling sorry for myself. Then I saw the SOTS update and said to the empty room, "we have to get better now!"
You have to rest anon, you need to rest! Headaches are the worst.
Like, if you were able to get to SOTS, that’s awesome, but reading can make headaches worse so like, author-Pia is falling down on the side of ‘it’s actually totally fine to wait because the chapter is literally not going anywhere, but the headache might not either if you don’t give it a chance to leave.’

NaNoWriMo check in!
Wordcount: 31,500 words
So far:
Falling Falling Stars 89 (Complete) Falling Falling Stars 90 (Complete) Falling Falling Stars 91 (Complete) The Nascent Diplomat 15 (Complete) The Nascent Diplomat 16 (Complete)
The Ice Plague 32 (Ongoing) Falling Falling Stars 92 (Ongoing)
So far so good! There were about three days where I didn't write at all, which is okay because I'm ahead of the halfway average. I realised that taking a break playing Hades was actually too draining, so I'm back to playing Stardew Valley which lowers my heartrate and actually is relaxing, and that's been helping in between all the writing, lol.
I hope everyone else doing whatever version of NaNo you're doing is going well! Remember all words are good words, no matter how many, no matter how much you don't like them. They all count. :D
#falling falling stars#the nascent diplomat#the ice plague#fae tales verse#fae tales#dsalkjfdsa most other people edit after#but i'm editing as i go#so it's a lot of work lol#i'm happy to be on 31k though!#NaNo is feeling reachable

Daily excerpt from today’s writing, chapter 9 of The Gentle Wolf, Perth Shifters #2:
Aodhan woke abruptly, a hoarse sound in the back of his throat, bolting upwards until he was sitting, shoving the blankets off him because he didn’t want anything touching his body. He gasped for air, trying to calm himself down, trying not to think, remember, feel.
‘Aodhan?’ Thomas’ voice beside him. ‘God, Aodhan, are you okay? What is it?’
‘Shit,’ Aodhan managed, remembering where he was. He was ruining it. This would ruin it. ‘God, I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Thomas. I should go. It was just a nightmare. It’s stupid. But I should go.’
He grabbed his phone and stood, feeling dizzy and sick, swallowing over and over again.
‘Hey,’ Thomas said gently. ‘Aodhan, if you want to go, that’s fine. But it’s four in the morning, and you’re shaken. Please… What was the nightmare about?’
‘No,’ Aodhan said, turning to face him, horrified. ‘No, that’s not something- Fuck.’
He dragged a hand through his hair, and then winced when Thomas reached out and turned the bedside lamp on. Immediately he could see the concern on Thomas’ face, and he ached for it in a way that shocked him. He was so used to dealing with all of this on his own. But Thomas was right there, and despite the terror racing through him, the nausea, he just wanted to curl up next to someone.
It was an instinct he hadn’t let himself give into his entire life.

Augus' calm reaction at the chapter summary caught me off guard, I laughed so hard! xD I wonder if he's gonna connect what Mosk is trying to do with what Gwyn tried to do before. Why do you have to make the end chapter summaries so interesting?! Now I can hardly wait for the next chapter again, it's gonna be all I can think about throughout the week again!
Augus might! But he won’t say if he does or not. Augus is pretty inscrutable to people not in his inner circle, which is the way he likes it.
Why do you have to make the end chapter summaries so interesting?!
Oh anon, if you knew how much terror I felt at the idea of people just getting super bored between like the two week waits between chapters, and my angsting over finding the right phrase that both kind of illicits interest but doesn’t ruin the whole chapter premise like dsalkjfdsa (I AM GLAD YOU FIND THEM INTERESTING THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING THAT)
#asks and answers#augus each uisge#the ice plague#mosk manytrees#fae tales verse#Augus is also very alarmed at the missing heartsong#which he finds kind of fascinating#now that he's had some time to adjust to the idea of it#though he also finds it revolting#i think it's extremely hard for him to imagine#given how much direct work he's done with them re: gwyn#and also in deliberately bolstering and strengthening his own#Augus' heartsong is balance#and Mosk's entire being is an antithesis to that#so they don't immediately vibe#administrator Gwyn wants this in the queue#Anonymous
