Writer WIP Poll Game
Rules: make a 24-hour poll with the names of your wip's, let it run, then write one sentence for every vote the winner got.
I was tagged by @chronic-ghost! Thank you so much for tagging me in this, this looks really fun!!! 😁💖
I have a lot more WIPs, but these are the ones that I currently have in my mind that I'm thinking of writing. These are all dusk related, so feel free to ask me about any of these!
Tagging (no pressure!): @lilmissuncreative, @bonnielass23, @alwaysupatnight, @musicrunsthroughmysoul, @virgosandpoison, @justjstuff, @belorage, @fortysevenswrites, @ladyculebras, @barbienheimer, @blondiest, and anyone else that want to make this! ❤️
Summaries under the cut:
Dark Night - A Daybreakers/Queen of the Damned inspired AU where paranormal researcher Kate enters an underground world of vampires and accidentally meets and falls for vampire!Seth. Meanwhile his ambitious brother, Richie (also undead and chasing for something bigger and better) accidentally unleashes the first vampire, Amaru. As the two become romantically linked, Amaru has her own ambitions of taking control of the world of the living and the world of the dead; showing everyone who the real queen is.
Must Be the Season of the Witch - Seth moves to a small town in Massachusetts and falls in love with a local shopkeeper named Kate, who is rumored to being a witch. What he doesn’t know is that she is an actual witch. Strange events start to unfold throughout the town, and it’s up to Kate and her band of witches to stop the evil force before she ends up losing Seth forever.
Love In an Elevator - Seth and Kate work at a law firm and one day get stuck in an elevator. Worst of all, they're the only two who are trapped and can't stand each after a first date gone terribly wrong. It's all up to patience for them to put aside their differences so they can make it out alive in one piece.
Got a Thing About You (And It Won't Go Away) - The sequel to I'm Out of My Head, Kate returns and hooks up with Seth. Several weeks into their fling, she spends the weekend with Seth and is invited by his brother, Richie, and their uncle, Eddie, to have dinner at the latter's place, much to Seth's dismay. As Uncle Eddie and Richie see their little hookup as more than just a hookup (as well as Kate who's starting to see this as more than a fling) Seth is still in his own feelings about whether things should stay where they are or if he's ready to turn their relationship into something more.
Came Back Haunted - An alternate look at what happened after "Santa Sangre," with Kate’s journey to finding herself and searching for things to believe in while Amaru is slowly twisting her thoughts, trying to take over Kate completely. Meanwhile, as Richie, Seth, and Scott are wrapped up in their own grief after Kate’s “death,” they begin to find clues that she’s still alive, but she may not be the same person they once knew.
The Roommate Dilemma - After two people take up an ad for an available apartment space, they meet for the first time during move-in and are troubled that they're of the opposite sex. Unable to break their 1-year lease, they have to learn to compromise and live with each other until their year is up.
#fdtd#sethkate#chronic ghost#personal#I swear I already started the roommate fic already but I can't find it in my google docs 😫#well technically I did since this is expanded from a writing game I participated in#but I swear I thought I started in like the first sentence where kate's moving in#but I can't find it so I must've erased the first sentence

The Buffalos Just Keep Coming.
Two days ago, I thought that I had only one more livery to complete for the Buffalo Airways fleet. Then, I discovered two more …one that I knew of earlier but dismissed since I could not find any images of it (but now have), plus another revealed by a last-minute round of research.
Anxious to get them all done, I've been working hard to push the necessary pixels around and have gotten two more completed with today's submission.
dcthreepainter.com/douglas-vc-47-with-msn-34385
So, I'm back to needing just one more to finish the fleet, right?
Nope! There's another one! It is not part of the Buffalo Airways fleet but belongs to family member (and General Manager) Mikey McBryan. C-FDTD was the subject of his entertaining and informative YouTube series called Plane Savers.
youtube.com/watch?v=GXKR822cfzI
So, I better have "DTD" ready before I commit to the Buffalo Airways group poster that now still needs two more liveries developed first.
Better to be busy than bored.

20. Do you need music/noise to write or do you prefer silence? 5. What is a character you love, but don’t think you can write? 4. What old character would you love to bring back?
munday meme
20. do you need music/noise to write or do you prefer silence? it depends on my mood, but for the most part i do write with music in the background. usually that ranges from k-pop, k-rn&b, rn&b, and hip hop ( shoutout to DEA.N, ka.li uchis, s.za, d.rake.) . i think it's very rare to write with silence, but it's probably because i prefer hearing how fast i type. i do tend to have music on based on what i'm writing/the overall vibes of the thread.
5. what is a character you love, but don't you can write? hmm...i don't know that i do at this moment. i think for the longest time i thought i couldn't write gojo ( i actually used to write megumi awhile back ago. and i love gojo, but i had decided to write for megumi because his potential is there! ) because i felt like i couldn't be goofy enough. but somehow, i relate to his cockiness and his boujeness, among other things.
4. what old character would you love to bring back? oooh. this one is tough, sometimes i think about faye valentine a lot when i used to write her. love my femme fatale, money-loving, debt-owing gal. i do sometimes also think about santanico from the fdtd tv series, love her to death and absolute adore her nuance. she's a problematic fav but she was soo fun to write.i do think at some point i'll bring back or write a female muse. but who knows?

I was tagged the lovely @astarkey to list 5 unpopular opinions from 5 fandoms! Thank you for the tag! And I’m copying 2 fandoms, but different takes
1. From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series
First, jumping on Astarkey’s take, I love the idea of Kisa and Kate being best friends because they dealt with two sides of the same coin of patriarchal bullshit. Literally all I want is them to tear down the patriarchy with their bare hands together.
Other unpopular opinion. In some ways I’m glad they didn’t do a season 4. The ending of season 3 pretty much made SethKate canon, or at least confirmed their love for each other. I worry that given the age gap of both the characters and the larger age gap between DJ and Madison, that they would have rolled rolled back the development, or even potentially given Seth a different, more age appropriate temporary love interest, out of fear of backlash. I know the majority of the fandom was rooting for SethKate, but it’s one thing to tease it and drop hints to appease the fans, and it’s another to openly display it in the show and open themselves up for backlash beyond the fandom. The potential of people hearing about the age gap relationship and jumping on the “let’s cancel fdtd” bandwagon without watching the show. Community and the actors got so much backlash over Jeff and Annie, calling Jeff a pedo, and other than the goodbye kiss in the last episode they didn’t make that ship canon. That show was airing pretty much at the same time as fdtd. I think SethKate could have been safely portrayed in comics or novels though which I’m sad they didn’t do and wish they would. I am also kinda hoping for them to finally do a season 4 with an actual time skip, like it’s 2023, or later, because I think with Madison/Kate being older and them really defining the age gap (other than the one line on the radio that the Gecko brothers are in their late 20′s) that they could more safely develop the relationship.
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel
I have a lot of opinions but these are probably my most unpopular. I used to be a hard core spuffy shipper when I was watching in middle and high school. I think that was because I liked Spike more than Angel (his snark speaks to my soul). I’m currently doing a rewatch, almost through season 5, and maybe my view will change in season 6 and 7, but right now I’m not a fan of either spuffy or bangel, or honestly any of Buffy’s romantic relationships. Actually currently questioning my younger self’s judgement.
My actual otps currently are Xander and Anya, and Angel and Cordelia, and I will forever be pissed that they never got Xander and Anya back together and killed her off, and that they killed Cordelia.
Also as a note, I have not read any of the comics or continuing story, so there could have been developments with Buffy’s relationships with Spike and Angel that could sway me, but I’m going entirely off the two television series.
3. Doctor Who
I loved RTD and hated Moffat, which I know isn’t that unpopular, but I actually loved Chibnall’s era. I really appreciated the social commentary and thought he and Jody did an amazing job. Also I’m not sure how unpopular this is anymore, but I loved Rose and Tentoo’s ending. I think given that this is a live action series with actors who want to move on to different projects it was the best ending we could get for The Doctor and Rose. Also Tentoo IS The Doctor.
4. Fairy Tail
Gray and Lucy work better together than Gru//via and Na////Lu. I stand by my statement and will not budge.
I think Gru//via is actually harmful. I don’t think there’s anything necessarily wrong about toxic or abusive relationships being portrayed in media, but I think it needs to be recognized in the series that it is toxic and abusive behavior. That’s not the case with Gru///via. No character is calling out Ju///via’s behavior towards Gray as abusive, it’s played off as comedy or that Gray is the bad guy for not returning her feelings, and as far as I know Mashima hasn’t said anything publicly about it being problematic behavior either. I know someone who has used that as a model for how to get a guy and is in a very messed up situation where he is taking advantage of her.
Also not exactly unpopular as in controversial, but super rare pair ship, Loke and Cana is my OTP for the series. I only actually ship and have strong feelings about GrayLu and and Lokana, all the other ships range from NOTP to I have no issue with it existing.
5. Big Bang Theory
Not a huge fandom of mine but something that just irks me to no end, and I know has been done in other media. I HATE that they had Penny backtrack on being childfree. I get wanting to have this happily ever after for two characters, but it doesn’t have to be children. Having Penny change her mind because Leonard and her dad is so problematic though. It delegitimizes actual women who have this stance (including me). It perpetuates the idea of this is just a phase and we’ll change our minds, which has real world consequences of employers looking at all women as not as serious because as soon as they have that baby that we all KNOW they will, they’ll be taking a step back to be a mom so why give them a promotion. And bodily autonomy. I understand not tying an 18 year old’s tubes, but the fact the so many adult women are denied sterilization procedures because “you’ll change your mind” or “what if your future husband wants kids?” like the wants of a hypothetical partner takes precedence over what the woman wants to do with her own body. It’s just such bullshit when this happens.
The ONLY time I’ve witnessed this happen that I’ve been okay with is Elliot in Scrubs, it was part of a long character arch, and her not wanting kids seemed to be rooted almost entirely of her fear of it affecting her career. It wasn’t just a snap decision of omg after years of not wanting to procreate I suddenly want children.
Definitely did some rambling and got political up in here, but I think these are probably some of my most unpopular opinions. Depending on the fandom my opinions can fall into more popular or mostly controversial
Some of my fdtd mutuals have already been tagged, so not gonna double tag them: @darth-tella @sunniebelle @kelkat9 @yourundead @fortysevenswrites @scrumptiousperfectionwizard @milkshakemicrowave @elialys @gralunaisland (Although I feel yours should be 5 unpopular opinions on gru//via lol) and of course anyone else who’d like to do this!

FDTD: First Anniversary
I got swamped with University again I had this all ready AAA-
Wow, it’s um. It’s really been a year huh? I mean, maybe to you reader this isn’t such a big deal and to which fair enough. But to me, I really didn’t expect to make it this far. Like I’ve always wanted to commit to putting a story down on paper, but I knew deep down that I’d quit EVENTUALLY. So the fact that I’m still here doing it is…a bit surprising.
I just wanted to say, thank you. I don’t think I would be HERE still trying to create this webcomic without the support of you. Nor did I think I’d get such support! Or you know, think that ANY of my stuff held any value! It��really does make me smile and feel nice.
I want to treat FDTD as my STAR. This is a franchise worthy project! I’m going to get ALL the sponsorships and I’m going to have an animated series on Youtube and funny branded cereal. The whole nine yards! Well…**you** already make me feel like I’m already there. And I can only hope to keep going and see where the road takes me. And I hope you can join along.
And I even if you don’t know who the hell I am, or maybe you’re not caught up on the story. I still want to thank you for taking the time to read this and for you doing your OWN part to keep this world a little less gray and a lot more colorful. I wish you good luck in your projects, it’s truly an inspiration.
I wish I knew how to make things sound more special. But just, thank you. For now though, here are some of the earliest Dusk & Dawn drawings I could find. I’m not even sure if I had the story in mind at the time.
I also hope my drawing skills have improved ever since then, I really do. Look at how CHUBBY Dawn’s Face is. In earlier pages she had a bit of a more rounded face but it certainly has became more pointy within time. I’m glad I did change that, fits her tone more properly.
Also I have NO idea what is going on with Dawn’s glasses. They were supposed to be reading glasses yet I gave em an ugly orange tinge. Now she has orange eyes and brown glasses. Neat! Dusk was supposed to wear her shades all the time, like properly. But then I realized that eyes are like, the BEST at convey expressions. So I made it just a key part in her design that she’d wear it on top of her head as much as possible.
I also apparently made her much more…shyer? Like she’s someone who is has a badass front but is also very soft and squishy. But it seems like this leans towards more the latter than the former. Interesting.
Well, I wrote up the wall. I guess I’ll stop here and begin to wrap up.
Thank you once again for supporting me, and just…being a good friend reader! And if we aren’t buds, I hope we can be in the far future! I can only hope so. I once again never thought I’d make it this far, nor think my characters had ANY value. But…call me surprised. I’ve received so much help and support that…I’m still shocked about. And even if I didn’t, I’d still press on with this story.
You just make the ride more sweeter. I hope to be able to pull out all the stops and, make something magical.
Thank you.

Hey I have a quick question for you. First of all I always loved your fics when I was part of the FDTD random. A few days ago I remembered your sethkate fic "Love is" (bc it's one of my absolute faves) and thought about rereading it and saw that it was deleted :( If it doesn't bother you do you mind me asking why you deleted it?
Hello. Thank you so much for your kind words. I don't mind the question at all.
I did take down the fic because I actually turned it into an independent piece and published it as a book, my first published book. It was a really hard decision to take the fic version down, but I am proud of myself for chasing my dream.
Hugs!

character ask meme: Kisa
favorite thing about them: I love that the show was willing to go the distance with her storyline (at least in s1-2).
least favorite thing about them: she's not in enough episodes in s3.
favorite line: "All my life I've been the property of men. That ends today."
random headcanon: she and Scott become allies post-canon.
unpopular opinion: she's the best character in the show.
song i associate with them: Dessa's "Dixon's Girl" is a VERY Kisa song, js.
favorite picture of them:
Her look on 3x02 for her fight club, with the braid, the choker, the corset over the long sleeved shirt....... yeah.

I was tagged a century ago by the lovely @barbienheimer to list 5 unpopular opinions from 5 fandoms! Thank you babe, and I am so so sorry it took me this long to get around to doing this! 😘💖🙏🏽
1. From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series
I know I’m gonna get dragged for this, but this has been my opinion for years ever since I stepped foot in the fdtd tumblr fandom... The Kisa and Kate war thing is just ridiculous. And bashing people for having siding with either of them and saying they’re wrong to like either of them too is ridiculous when literally they’re fictional characters and these characters ain’t that deep. Like I feel like people take it too personally when the real person to blame is the writers who wrote them that way. I love both the characters and I feel like I’m the only one in the fandom that’s playing at an even field here lol because I know that both of them aren’t good and aren’t perfect, but I’m out here having fun imagining them being best buds going on a girls road trip with Kalinda, Dakota, and Maggie :p
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Not gonna lie, ever since Dawn showed up in s5, I’ve always found her very, very annoying and never liked the plot of Buffy all-of-a-sudden having a sister.
3. Stranger Things
Definitely felt like they could’ve handled s4 better in the ending after they left Eddie in the upside down instead of just showing him dying and then flashing up “two days later.” Also, the Steve/Nancy thing they were pulling, I didn’t like it at all.
4. Kingdom Hearts
... Remember when the first game was about a boy who wanted to leave the island and travel to other worlds (disney worlds)? Yeah, that was a simple story. ‘Cause like right after that, I really felt like... that series became a cash cow for Square. Because right after that game, they came out with Chain of Memories for the Game Boy Advance and not the ps2, and then the sequel came out for the ps2, but then Birth by Sleep and Re:Coded and 358/2 Days came out for the psp and Nintendo DS, and then Dream Drop Distance for the Nintendo 3DS, KHX for mobile phones, 0.2 and KH3 for ps4, and I don’t even know what KH4 is gonna be on, but it’s like I just never liked that they wanted to have these games on consoles that nobody has?? Like it’s just something that has bugged me for 20 years, like why not keep it simple and have it on like a main console brand like playstation? Like imo, I thought that they were making up these other stories just to have them for specific consoles for like a cash grab instead of having a coherent storyline that makes sense. And with KH3, I was expecting Sora’s story to be over-over, not go back to how it was in the ending of the first game where Sora and Kairi are separated AGAIN, in order for the story to keep going. Like right when the news broke out about kh4, I was happy and excited, but I wasn’t all too thrilled because I feel like it’ll be this never-ending cycle where Sora’s story is said to end, but it will never end. I will say though that the fans that kept pushing the developers to finish kh3 and kept asking when will it be released, that wasn’t cool at all. Like they don’t know how much work the devs put into to creating a game, and for them to demand it, that wasn’t right and I felt bad for the devs.
5. Yellowjackets (SPOILERS AHEAD)
S2 was not as good as s1. I felt like everything was rushed to answer almost everything, while there’s still important things left unanswered. Natalie being the antler queen???? And then having her killed off while she was also a recovering addict was just a wrong move. She was literally the most sane character in this story, and now the most sane person is gone. I don’t even know if I wanna watch it anymore after that because she was the strongest character and my favorite, and I had high hopes for her. I was hoping s2 was all just a dream because it all felt like one big joke to me. There was no mystery, no thrill, nothing that left me hanging wanting more like s1 did where there was one mystery after the next that doesn’t reveal itself. And I also didn’t like the Misty/Walter thing, like it was cute, but it also got on my nerves idk how to explain it lmao 😂
I felt like I was rambling through this 🤣 But yeah, those are my unpopular opinions.
Tagging (no pressure of course!): @bloodychamber, @camiladnne, @bellamuertes, @justjstuff, @blondiest, @ondinaaa, @alwaysupatnight, @lilmissuncreative, @charlottesmatthews, @chronic-ghost, @bonnielass23, @weloveachother, and anyone else who wants to do this! ❤️

We've already seen Kisa's idea of ruling and it was a disaster. She can only run things like the Twister. So if she was leader it wouldn't turn out. Even the Twister Carlos led. She was just face. Carlos actually drove the knowledge in season 3. So he would be the best one to rule them. He gave all the credit to her though because for whatever reason, he's still in love with her. There's no one left to rule culebras well anymore. Chaos would be s4. A new enemy can easily use that chaos to take.
I like the idea of digging into What Kind of Leader Would Santanico Be? so I’m gonna answer this with a dig into that aspect. (Shout out to @yossariandawn for tossing theories back and forth about this with me, and for letting me use their insights to weave through this!)
We don’t see Kisa/Santanico lead much, as so much of her story has her avoiding any sort of role that gives her power. She gets offered or forced onto a throne a lot throughout the show, and she tries to reject it each time with varying success.
The one and only time we see her actually leading anything of her own free will is for a brief moment in season three, at the fight club. And at first, Seth and Richie make a comment that they think the place is like the Twister, but they are soon proven wrong when they realize the humans and culebras are both there by choice, free to come and go as they please, and that there’s no feeding frenzy that happens. There are rules, and her people there seem to genuinely want to be there and follow those rules. They seem to genuinely love and respect her, the one begging on his knees to be allowed to stay when he breaks those rules. But its a brief moment and I’m not sure how much leading she was actually doing. Kisa is not someone who’s used to getting to make decisions. She was kept ignorant most of her life, trapped inside the temple and turned into a figurehead outside of it, and its not uncommon for abuse survivors to turn to others to make decisions for them. How much of the fight club was Kisa and how much of it was people like Manola? Who was some kind of a fighter before meeting Kisa and would enjoy a safe place for people to brawl for fun and/or money. It could be comforting to Kisa, having someone else make those kinds of choices for her while not trying to control her. How much leading did Kisa actually do there?
Santanico didn’t really lead in the Twister. I think the girls looked up to her, maybe some of the staff too, but those girls were slaves like her. Bought by Malvado and then sent to the Twister to work there, the ones he and his men didn’t eat that is. It was Malvado’s place, ran by Carlos in his name, and Santanico was given a lot of wiggle room because she was Malvado’s prized possession, but at the end of the day her power was in what she was to those actually in control. Everything she knew and understood about the world outside was filtered through Carlos and what bits the girls could give her when they were brought in.
As for Carlos, he rules like Malvado does, because that’s what he thinks will give him what he wants. He envied Malvado, wanted to be him and take over his empire. Malvado was a corrupt Lord who ruled through pain and fear, and Carlos emulated him in his own actions. Its ultimately what drove him and Kisa to opposite sides, because Kisa wanted to destroy Malvado’s empire and Carlos wanted to take it for himself. At least in seasons one and two. As for season three, Carlos has had a change of heart it seems. He’s been through hell by this point, in some ways literally. He seems to genuinely regret his role in freeing Amaru and wants to help stop her, and part of how he does that is by pushing Kisa into accepting the role of leader. She never wanted the power, never wanted to rule, and only reluctantly accepts the role of queen when trying to break Amaru’s claim on the culebras. Which I’m pretty sure she could only do because she was made differently than other culebras. (More credit to @yossariandawn for creating the theory that Kisa holds some draw for culebras because of the way she was created places her someplace between a regular culebra and a Lord. Which I have stolen and completely accepted as a headcanon :P ) I wouldn’t say Carlos is a good leader, because we only ever see him rule in season one, and then it was very very little, and during that time he was driven by his lust for power, even going so far as to go behind Kisa’s back and created plans of his own to get himself more power. He wasn’t motivated by love, he was motivated by greed.
Could Kisa be a good leader? She was tortured physically and mentally for centuries, and was surrounded by the worst sorts of people. Not only the people who surround her at the Twister, but her very prison was designed to draw in the sorts of people no one would miss; rapists and murderers and child molesters. Her greatest defense was learning to manipulate men, and even then only a certain type, and that's not going to work on a broader scale, and is ultimately going to make it harder for her to judge what motivates the average person accurately. She’s had some time to undo a little of the damage her experience and extreme isolation has done to her, but was it enough? She’s so used to relying on others to come up with the plan (Carlos in season one, Richie in season two) that I’m not sure she has the tools to make one herself.
I think her reluctance could be an asset to her though. She doesn’t want power, and therefore won’t be corrupted by it. She saw firsthand the kind of ruler Malvado was and saw herself mirroring him in season two and the destruction that lead to. She’s been forced to believe (whether its true or not is up for debate) that she’s responsible for the culebras. That its her job and responsibility to lead and care for them, which can do wonders for forcing someone to get their shit together quickly because they’re responsible for someone else’s well-being now and can’t screw it up. She had general compassion for them even back in season two, even as she rejected the title of their goddess. Sometimes putting another’s needs before your own can be just what someone needs to fix themselves, but there’s also a good chance she hasn’t actually had enough time to heal and find herself enough to lead. She really only had six months to try and dig through centuries of trauma and piece herself back together again. And how much of a leader can she actually be if she doesn’t really know who she is? Or will taking on the mantel of queen be the foundation she can use to rebuild herself? If she sets her purpose on helping and protecting her people, will that ultimately give her a path to follow towards healing and self-discovery? Or will focusing on others only hinder her on learning about herself and who she is at her core?
I guess the ultimate question this is: Can Kisa learn to be the leader her people need? Or does she lack tools to ever be more than a reluctant figurehead?

What groceries would couple Sethkate buy though?
Kate: organic produce, those little Halo oranges, artisan bread (she likes sourdough), humanely raised meat, Pepperidge Farm milk chocolate Milano cookies, a copy of Rolling Stone for Scott.
Seth: ten frozen meat lovers pizzas, margarita mix, Frosted S’mores Pop Tarts, boxed mac and cheese in dinosaur shapes, comic books for Richie, a box of brownie mix (not to bake; he’s going to eat the brownie batter raw. yes, all of it).
Kate tells Seth he’s gonna get scurvy and Seth retaliates by eating her Milano cookies while her back is turned and then pretending he lost his wallet so she has to pay for the empty packaging.

what if the gecko brothers weren't the only ones trying to get to el rey?
so i started a re watch of from dusk till dawn the series because its been a few months. i love that each time i watch it i notice something different even if i still hold out hope for further seasons. im only onto the 3rd episode but something kind of popped out to me that screamed WRITE SOMETHING! but all ive got is...
mr fuller is very impatient to get to the border, hes started to drink again and he refuses to talk about their mother which doesnt mean much to scott but kate watches her father with worried eyes.
in his sleep jacob mutters riddles and wakes up startled with foreign words just slipping from his tongue. kate wants to go home but the only truth her father has deemed suitable for her to know is that there is no home to go back too.
