But when Xiao Yifeng says, ‘I’m truly your husband,’ I almost got strangled by my future wife… Something feels off—I must have ended up with the wrong script!”

Crucible of Shadows - chapter one (excerpt)

Greasy sweat coated Fedor’s back and neck as he stared half-focused at the Rusty Sail’s back room wall. Peeling gloss revealed bare pine beneath, the wood’s knots and whorls shifting and expanding in time with his heartbeat. His eyelids drooped again and the top of his head pressed against the wall behind him as a wave of pleasure washed up from the base of his spine, triggering sparks inside…

captiancap asked: I'd like to see any art you have of the Michigan Fleet cast. I do really like them. feral-engineer asked: For art requests: can we get something with trimmer? Maybe a hug, or baby trimmer causing problems on purpose? damnfool-of-a-took asked: for the art prompt request! Michigan Fleet, kid!Trimmer🔪👀?

Y'all are just too kind 🥰 I've been sitting on boatboy sketchbook scans for a WHILE not getting around to them, so here are some folks--some on boats and some not, some from published books and some not! :D

Rich and Trimmer never met each other as kids which is probably for the best because Rich was an impressionable little dumpling and Trimmer was a fast-paced, daring, precocious bump/bruise-magnet, like many fourhands kids lol

my book is now FREE and will probably stay that way forever

this is because the world is a mess (and lowkey because my grampa implied I’ll start liking capitalism if I ever get rich off my writing, and I am full of Spite)

anyway!! if you want a big book full of stuff like…

aroace and other queer rep

so much blood and action

a talking stone

a looming apocalypse

a morally gray protag with so much Trauma and Anger

some monster-creatures

that sweet sweet found family

a slow-burn QPR

no spice

…here’s the thing for you.

listen i was reading G’s description and then i saw that they’re the mc’s ex-fiancé/fiancée- did mc do something bad??? did G do something bad???? I’m lowkey worried

No one did anything bad! It was kind of a case of ‘right people, wrong time.’

They loved each other (and whether mc still does is up to your choices), but G had just taken over Cretaceous Island from their father and mc had just been promoted to head keeper of the T-Rex. There was a lot going on in both of their lives and they had no time for each other.

It was ultimately a mutual breakup for the benefit of both parties. Hence why the two of them are still able to work together so seamlessly.

There is obviously some minor unresolved issues there, but when it comes down to it, no one is at fault.

i cant deal w ppl on tiktok saying they didn't like modern faerie tales because they thought the writing wasn't clear enough or too flowery... meanwhile i thought the language was too plain and explained every little thing in tfota series, but overall i thought the trilogy was fast paced so that may be a personal miff that i have... also there are crits i have about how race is handled in mfts, but the line 'what flavour of asian are you' is kaye experiencing racism... like that's the point, she's an asian main character even though she's mixed, and she's surrounded by racist assholes in new jersey... like that's a vital factor in her feeling different and othered by her white family who doesn't give a shit about her asian side, and othred by society... she experiences racism 😭 she's not just a changeling, she's also asian american...

the way bnha, jjk and demon slayer all started with some potential, then some people started to call them the "new big 3" due to their popularity and immediately afterwards their quality (if they ever had that in the first place) plunged to underground levels..... that's something that should be studied

Dawn of Assassins - chapter one (excerpt)

Gaslamps illuminated the flagstones with dull light, bringing with them the constant hiss of the Nordturm night. Fedor raced across Kathryn Square when a pair of patrolling constables disappeared from view. He knew their route well, their timings, their patterns, their habit of doling out violence before asking questions. He’d been at the receiving end more times than he could count, but nothing…

When I say I am sooooo close to being able to post an AU that’s guaranteed to blow your socks off I mean that if I can just figure out a way to make this fight scene at the end not feel like a six year old is telling it then we are ready to GOOOOOO

Aquaman 2 is like… Thor Ragnarok crossed with a Step Brothers/Rush Hour fusion spliced with the first Aquaman movie. Could’ve been worse but it could’ve been a lot better too. Solid 7/10. 6/10 on its worst day.
