hot take (and spoilers) regarding part 2 of feast-ember (i genuinely can’t believe the monster handlers labeled it as “electric boogaloo”. i love them)
i was absolutely not expecting both epic wubboxes to come out at once, but it feels really appropriate. i love both their designs and songs VERY much.
however i have an issue with fire oasis now. the song is getting really cluttered. i think where rare wubbox plays is just fine, but epic? i think the song would’ve benefited from them playing in whaddle/cheruble’s verse with a bit of a softer vocal (kind of like in gold island) to fit the Vibes. instead they just mashed it together with the rare and called it a day. in other words, it’s air island all over again.
i don’t have any issues outside of this. absolutely LOVE epic buzzinga and rare knurv, just wasn’t expecting either of them to show before anyone else

Fic Master List
I got tired of having to decide which fic post to keep pinned, so I made this. Proper summaries, tags and warnings all on AO3.
Black Sails
Another Way - Silverflint, E, 29,399 words, complete.
Dubcon! But in a very old-school fanfic trope fuck or die way. It diverges from the scene where they get captured taking the warship. They do work through everything in the aftermath, and the end is very sweet actually.
Another Troy to Burn - Series. Silverflint longfic series, my special precious baby and literally the first thing I ever wrote. It's canon where they're fucking the whole time but it doesn't change anything. There is a moodboard (thanks @jaynovz) and also a playlist.
By Faith of my Body - Silverflintmadi in various combinations, but emphasis on the flintmadi relationship. E, Chapter 1/4 posted.
Flint and Madi bond over books, the weight of leadership, and being in love with John Silver. FealtySub!Flint, shameless use of literature for my own nefarious purposes, and so much pining.
A Composite Unity - E, 20,366 words, complete. The first two seasons, Flint pov. He is not having a great time.
The Salt and the Sea - E, 60,495 words, complete. Set during the season 2-3 break, how Silver decided to stay and what happened with the gold. He is also not having a great time.
It Only Made Me Real- E, chapters 4/? posted. Silver adjusting to his role as quartermaster, Flint being Flint during the raids. I swear upon everything holy that I WILL finish this series if its the last thing I do, but, it has been on hiatus for a while.
for to fight the cold - Silverflint, E, 11,283 words, complete. Flint arrives to rescue Silver while he is still being held captive on the beach after the failed attack on Nassau. The cathartic murder of Israel Hands, followed by angst, caretaking, and a sexual tension filled camping trip.
If It Was You - Silverflint, E, 17,430 words, complete. Free use gangbang porn that got out of control and also grew a lot of feelings. The boys spend the night in port on a mission. There is only one bed. Flint freaks out and makes questionable choices, Silver walks in on the whole thing, they have to work through it. Cathartic happy ending. The very Most dirty talk.
I'll Carry You Home Tonight - Silverflint, E, 6,604 words, complete. This one is just porn. Season 3-4 break, the guys are newly in a relationship, they get Pirate Date Night. It's working title was 'impact play and 5 phases of ass stuff'.
Kinkmeme-Verse - Series of prompt fills for 2024 Black Sails kinkmeme. I wrote the first two, saw the prompt for the third, and had a Vision of how they could all be connected, so here we are.
As a Boy - James Flint|McGraw/Admiral Hennessey, E, 5,121 words, complete. Young James McGraw is caught with a boy, and punished. Big content warning for CSA, which I tried to treat seriously.
Pressure - Silverflint, E, 4,504 words, complete. More watersports are we all shocked? This is kind of the ultimate expression of that, but really its an exploration of pain and grief and healing through BDSM.
Make Sail for the Dawn - Silverflint, E, 12,504 words, complete. Flint uses submission as catharsis amidst his grief and pain over Miranda, but Silver accidentally reminds him of past history, which he then has to confront. They work through it, because Silver really has to do everything on this ship, including being his captain's therapist. Also Flint gets fucked with his pistol. Just by the way. This is the one prompter hated! Go see for yourself if it is, in fact, Too Awful For Kinkmeme XD.
long as amber of ember glows - Silverflint, E, 7,933 words, complete. If 3.10 ended the way it should have. There are love confessions, and they fuck on the gold. No literally, on it. It's very sweet honestly.
Our Feast is But Beginning - Series. Silverflint Cookingverse! Flint teaches Silver to cook.
Spit-Roasted - M, 5,821 words, complete. The one where Flint shows Silver how to roast a pig. It's canon! Flint is very weird about sex.
Gentille Alouette - E, 11,618 words, complete. Late night cooking dates on the Walrus, continuing intense sexual tension, Flint is basically edging himself. He sure is a way.
Princes of the New World - E, 38,145 words, complete. This one got a little out of hand, it has many things in it, including lots of hurt comfort and caretaking, the guys finally getting together and also not hiding their relationship, some intense gender vibes (Silver gets to be a pampered pretty princess) and yes, even some cooking.
Our Shadows That Are Bold - Silverflint, E, 4,912 words, complete. Dom Silver. The first little iteration of fealty sub Flint, he sure has some feelings about Silver coming into his own as king.
So We Begin - Silverflint, E, 4,038 words, complete. 3.7 missing scene fic that is exactly what you would expect after stomp stomp and the "how good it feels" conversation.
The Soft Animal of Your Body - Silverflint, E, 3,398 words, complete. The watersports one. Yep sure is, omorashi style, with a good side of hurt comfort stuff and also Flint telling a weird dirty story. Set during warship recovery time. This is basically an outtake of longfic because it doesn't quite work there but wouldn't leave my brain.
the sound that you found for me - T, background silverflintmadi, but its really about Silver and Betsy the cat. Yep. 5,699 words, complete. Kittenfic!! Written for the Beach Blanket Black Sails Ficfest, the prompt was 'Betsy has kittens and Silver wants to keep them on Maroon Island.' It's really about Silver and trauma and there are sad parts but nothing bad happens to any cats and there is a happy ending.
stitched with its color - G, silverflintmadi sort of, 1,344 words, complete. The conversation where Madi tells Flint that Silver is alive.
Such Terrible Hungers - E, Flintvane, 3,357 words, complete. Instead of fuck buddies, they're fuck enemies. Fight sex and Flint angst, that's basically the fic.
to pull me from myself again - E, Silverflint, 7,419 words, complete. Written in response to a Tumblr prompt asking for s1 dynamics softe silverflint, Silver's first time with a man. That is indeed it, that's the fic
What Lies Beneath - E, Silverflint, 3 chapters, complete. 11,031 words. Demon Flint AU! Basically make the demon in Flint literal. Silver is fascinated of course.
The Fetch Phillips Archives (aka Luke Arnold's books, go read them!)
The Exorcist (tv)
announcing your place in the family of things - E, Fetch/Satyr, 6,865 words, complete. The first creature Fetch meets when he leaves the human city is that unnamed Satyr, and that feels like a conscious choice to me. Coulda said 'faun' and we wouldn't be here Luke. Anyway monsterfucking, but in a lovely way.
The X-Files
The Smoke of Their Torment - M, Marcus/Tomas, 572 words, complete. A snippet of Marcus angst and pining and also jerking off in a shared hotel room there may be more someday.
Whatever You Can Still Betray - E, Mulder/Krycek, Chapter 2/? posted. Set in vague early season five, sometime between Redux and Patient X. Mulder chases a case across the world to a secret Russian facility in Chechnya, and right into the hands of Alex Krycek. Krycek has problems of his own, but believes his interests and Mulder's might be aligned. When disaster strikes, they have to rely on each other to survive.
#for a long time i kept whatever was most recent or relevant pinned#but now i realized how much there is#so#here's the masterlist#fanfic#my writing#silverflint#black sails#fetch phillip archives#sunderverse#the exorcist tv

4 Star Book Reads for 2024
As promised, here are the 4 star books I read in 2024.
Will I be doing 3 star or below?
No.
Why? Because people don’t see three star ratings as still good, still enjoyable except that’s what it means. It was a perfectly enjoyable read in the moment, but its edges blend with something else I read or it’s not something I’ll necessarily carry with me into the future.
And why won’t I do 1 or 2 star reads?
Because I’m mean.
When I start realizing I don’t like I book I read, my editor brain kicks in before common sense does. Common sense would tell me to stop reading because life’s too short to waste on bad literature. Instead, my brain tries to fix it and I edit those books like I edit my own.
Anyways, 4 star books didn’t necessarily make me feel a strong emotion like 5 star books did but nonetheless were great fun and I recommend them generally as fun, though they may have spelling errors, plot holes, or other issues.
CW for you minors: I read smut so some of these books are 18+ and I don’t always remember which are which so…ask your parents, I guess.

Frostflower Shaina Tranquilino December 19, 2024
In the heart of winter, when the world outside was frozen and silent, the Galloway family sat huddled around a crackling fire in their small cottage. Snowdrifts piled high against the walls, and the wind howled through the cracks in the wooden structure. Inside, though, the warmth of the fire was barely enough to stave off the chill that clung to their bones.
Mira Galloway stared at the flickering flames, her heart heavy with worry. The crops had failed early this year, and the snow came sooner than expected. The pantry was near empty, and her children—Elsa, Finn, and little Ava—had already started to show signs of hunger. Her husband, Callum, was out in the woods, searching for firewood, but he was growing weaker each time he returned.
"Mother," Elsa said softly, her pale face peeking over the edge of her blanket. "Is it true the Frostflower will bloom this winter?"
Mira paused, her eyes reflecting a mix of disbelief and wonder. The Frostflower was a legend, whispered about in the darkest corners of the village. It was said that in the harshest winters, when hope seemed lost, the Frostflower would bloom, its petals shimmering with an ethereal light, offering a single wish to those in need.
"It’s just a story, Elsa," Mira replied, trying to keep her voice steady. "No one has ever seen it."
Elsa looked out the window at the storm raging beyond, her eyes filled with quiet longing. "But what if it’s true? What if it could help us?"
Mira’s heart ached for her daughter, but she knew there was little chance of such magic in their bleak world. Yet, as she looked at the tiny candle flickering on their table, something stirred within her—hope, fragile and fleeting, but there all the same.
That night, as the cold wrapped its icy fingers around the cottage, a strange light flickered outside. Mira, half asleep, thought she was dreaming. But when the light grew brighter, more defined, she dared to open the door.
The snow had stopped falling, and in the clearing just beyond their small porch stood a flower unlike anything she had ever seen. Its petals were pale and iridescent, like the first frost of morning, glowing softly in the moonlight. The Frostflower.
With a trembling hand, Mira stepped forward, her breath misting in the frozen air. She knelt beside the flower, her eyes wide in disbelief. In the stillness of the night, she whispered a prayer—half hope, half desperation.
"I wish… I wish for our family to survive this winter."
As her words hung in the air, the flower’s petals shimmered brighter, and a gust of wind carried the faintest scent of spring. Mira stood, heart pounding, and looked toward the cottage.
She rushed back inside, where the fire seemed warmer, the air less oppressive. As she stoked the embers, she noticed something extraordinary—on the small shelf beside the hearth sat a small bundle of food. Fresh bread, cheese, and even a small ham, untouched by the cold.
The next morning, Callum returned from the woods, his arms full of firewood—and something else. He dropped the logs with a loud thud and turned to Mira, his face alight with disbelief. "Mira… there’s a tree in the forest—covered in fruit, as though it’s spring. We can feast on it today!"
The Frostflower’s magic had touched not only their home but the land around them, bringing life to the frozen world.
The Galloway family survived the winter, the legend of the Frostflower never fading from their hearts. And when the spring thaw finally came, they made their way to the clearing where the flower had once bloomed, but it was gone—its magic spent.
Still, the Galloways carried its gift with them always: hope, even in the harshest of winters.

What’s for breakfast
By: L.F. Young
16 July 2024
Part one
25 September 1998
Twenty years to the day
“I’ll have those foul smelling rotten trotters of yours, you dirty little swine. If you utter one more word. I shall first braze those hooves, sealing in the juices. Then in a red wine sauce with mushrooms, that’s been reducing for the last three days. I’ll gently submerge them. Where they’ll marinate for twenty four hours. Then you know what I’ll do?” Said the man with the most luxurious saltpetered manicured beard to have ever graced this side of the Atlantic.
“No!” Spat the middle aged lady into his direction, as perspiration started to slide down the right side of her face. Dripping onto her Tom and Jerry T-shirt, letting all see that her bravado was more of a smokescreen than a reality.
“I’ll place them on my rotisserie. Pleasurably roasting them low and slow through the night. All the while feasting in the luxurious flavors I get when I smell there sent wafting on the midnight breeze. Watching as they slowly let there juices drip, drip... drip! Like a sizzling lullaby tempting me, coxing me into a pleasant sleep as they dissolve on the burning embers.
“You don’t have the balls, you cantankerous bitter old man!” She said as her left foot slowly slid back three feet. In the direction of the backyard rod iron gate.
“Then I’ll hunny glaze them while they’re still rip roaring hot. Placing them on my plater with a bushel of freshly poached garlic infused eggs and a baker’s dozen of roasted tomatoes. With a bucket of ice cold tea, earl grey if you please,” he said as he took a painfully slow four foot step in her retreating direction. “If you ever so much as hint at saying her name again in my presence. No strike that. If you ever say her name again period.” He took another step towards her.
This one, a me’er three feet. But he could visibly see the gathering sweat stain building up on the right side of her lopsided chest. Several years ago, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and the only way the doctors could save her life was to do a full mastectomy to her right breast. At her darkest hour, the man she was angering had been by her side before and after the surgery. As was his beautiful wife… her baby sister.
This man of undetermined age, turned his back to the middle aged lady. Returning to his original position, next to his bbq pit and chair. He took hold of his excessively stained towel resting over his left shoulder. Then silently, but vigorously began rubbing it back and forth across his deeply tanned and bald head. Patiently counting to ten in his head, while releasing the heated air that was still gathering in his lungs. For the next volley of harsh words to be released into this ladies direction.
The air in his lungs was anxiously waiting for there turn to race up his throat, ripping into this thing. This lady, saying what she said. The audacity of her! Anticipation was boiling up in the air’s lessoning restraint, with what it hoped would be a barrage of vile foul mouthed words directed towards this so called human being once again. But the mouth never opened, the heated air was gently pressed up, through, and out the nasal cavities. Where it quickly cooled in the setting sun and the rising evening breeze.
The man turned back around, taking his time to stare at her as he once again sat in his beloved chair. Then blew out another slow breath of air, as he reclined back into his stained weathered and badly aged recliner. That sat only a few feet away from his ancient hand crafted barbecue pit. That was made by his great grandfather. He had relished this spot in his youthful days. When he cooked for the love of his life. His now dead wife of twenty years and two days..
It had been twenty agonizing years and two days to the day, of her unexpected departure from his world. These days, it was more of a responsibility he felt to her, keeping up the tradition of roasting a pork shoulder low and slow. Around this time each year. When he used to enjoyed the aromas of the burning wood, and the slow cooking meat. As he quietly drift off to a peaceful sleep, when he use to listened to her angelic voice. It was the only real way he could get a full unfretted restful night’s sleep. As she read one of her favorite books, as was her tradition when he would cook pork shoulder on the pit throughout the night for them.
His cold black eyes kept staring at her and her slow paced retreat, as he reached out to the tilting side table, where one of his wife’s beloved well worn book laid. As he took another slow breath in, as he once again felt his anger releasing its fiercely infectious grip around his head and his heart. This wasn’t just any beloved book, this particular book was the one she had cherished most. It was the first book of many he had bought her over their ten years and two days of marriage.
But this was a twin of that book. The original one had been lost while they were on their five year anniversary vacation to the Hawaiian Islands. This one was a gift to him five years later, one he wished he’d opened before that faithful day. That moment she was stolen from him. By him. And his need to make more money, so he could buy his love more books to read to him. And to get his rubs into the public market, making them stinking rich.
It had been twenty years and two days since his last truly restful nights sleep. For the last twenty years and two days. He read the book that was peacefully resting on the tilted side table. The book was the last gift his wife gave him before she died most unexpectedly from an undiagnosed heart disease. He hadn’t opened the present or said thank you to her, because he was too busy to read it then. He had told the woman he loved more than life itself, that he would open his gift when he came home from the word bbq championship.
He had departed for the competition two days before they had gotten married. The competition was on their wedding day. He left two days early hoping to get to San Antonio, TX in time to check out the competition, or as he was known to say. Those who would be bucking for second place. She died two days later right as he won the grand prize. He didn’t find out she had died till he got back home. This was in the year 1978, before there were cell phones, computers, apps. When he got home his nephew was waiting there at the front door nervously, waiting to give him the terrible news.
Family barbecuing on The first day of each month was their traditional family and neighborhood barbecue. Where he invited the neighbors that lived alongside him in their small cul-de-sac. He would bbq ribs, steaks, fish anything but pork shoulder. Pork shoulder was special. It was his slow and low cook on the day of the year they had first met each other. September twenty fifth, it was the same day a year later he proposed to her and the same day one year later that they tied the knot. The same day he had just won first place in what would become his very last bbq competition. It would also be the last time he invited the neighbors over for bbq on the first day of each month.
His nephew said she had died on the twenty fifth of September, at noon. His nephew said the cops where able to know the exact time she died, because the gold watch she was wearing stopped working when she fell to the ground. Smashing the small delicate time piece, effectively stopping the hands of the watch and the exact moment his wife had died. It was the day they got married, and it was the exact time the judge’s announced that he took first place.
He had promised her that he would win first place at noon, then he would pack up the old 1951 Studebaker. Leaving the competition right after the awards ceremony with the first place trophy and get back home to show it off to her and the neighbors. That the prize money would give him the opportunity to market his wet and dry bbq rub to the local grocery stores. Then hopefully to the world, making them mega rich. It had been both of their dreams. She never doubted that he would conquer the world with his wet and dry bbq rubs.
She didn’t care about the money, she just wanted the rest of the world to see just how amazing her husband’s cooking was. She was his pride and joy, his unbelievable beautiful beloved wife of ten years and two days. Who died in the back yard from an undiagnosed heart disease, that nobody even knew she had had since birth. A disease that was a ticking time bomb. Waiting for that perfect moment to strike. Thankfully she didn’t suffer, or feel anything.
One second she was sitting in the exact same recliner he was sitting in now. She stood up to place a few more logs on the dying fire. Thinking of him while warming herself by the fire she had made in the bbq pit, sipping her favorite drink. A rum float. It was mostly made up of Vanilla Coke, then two large scoops of natural vanilla bean ice cream with a healthy dose of a twenty year old dark Argentinian rum.
To give it that sweet nectar of the gods touch she loved so much. It had been her favorite drink since their trip to Hawaii. At least once or twice a week she would have her husband make her a large glug of it where she would get her largest coffee cup made out of undyed clay that looked like a big butt on one side and a handle on the other side. With a saying that said, for a good time just pinch.
Often he could be found reading that same book over and over again, while drinking a rum float in that same butt clay coffee mug that hadn’t even been scratched when his wife fell. It had fallen on the recliner’s cushion. He kept her broken watch and coffee mug on the small side table, never having the strength to move it anywhere else. Just as he did with her gift to him. He never read anything else and unlike the mug and broken watch. He was always seen with that hard bound book in his hand no matter where he went.
She could see that their yelling was over, and knew this round had gone to him. And seeing that book he was famously known to have with him every second of the day. That there would be no more verbal hostilities directed in either direction. Her fear of what he would do, lessened, just slightly. It was nearly in perceptive to have noticed, unless one was purposely looking for it at the split second it had shown itself. As she slowly turned around making her way to the still open rod iron gate. There was the faintest of sadness and a nearly undetectable frown seen on her face.
As that single lonely tear slid down her weathered face and fell to the sun soaked cracked Italian tile that made up his once highly manicured and polished backyard pathway to his once sparkling black rod iron French styled backyard gate. Now tattered, rusted and barely hanging on its only screw that still held true to the sad tired cobblestone wall that hedged in his rundown once beautiful abode.
Now weathered, pealing… desperately silently calling out for something or someone to breathe life once again into this gem of a home. A yard. Along with breathing in a reason to live once again in a man who’s seen better days. And served far tastier barbecue, than the charred lump of meat he was now known for these day���s. But given enough rum, anything is edible. That was his saying these days. Along with, rum can make anything taste like a winning pork shoulder on competition day.
He leaned forward and tossed another two logs on the fire. Patted the worn book on his chest and reclined back as far as his recliner would go. He finished off the remaining sludge from the finger stained coffee mug. Placed it back on the leaning side table. Closed his eyes, drifted off to a dream troubled sleep where pork shoulder zombie’s chased him around a fire pit that opened to the entrance to the abyss.
As a nearly invisible figure of a young and beautiful creature rested her hand on the man of her dream. The husband she adored in her living years. Now the angered, bitter older man. Who has lost his way. The man she desperately wants to save. But as of yet, has been unsuccessful in finding a way.
