Look who's finally getting down to business 👀

ENDS ON CLIFFHANGER HAHAAHAHA

now to homework i go

[burning-thistles-bt]

*emerges from death* hello.

remember Lolling's animatic Fight Little Wolf?

The entire song is out now, and I am unwell :)

[burning-thistles-bt]

Just so everyone knows, BT is now a restricted fic! This means you will need an account to access it.

I (Alder) ended up locking it alongside my other fics because of lore.fm. To get off of its list either I or Lolling would have had to use our email to contact lore.fm and get our fics removed (mine is my Main email…so you can guess why I didn’t do that).

However, this process has been reported to be rather passive aggressive to ao3 authors, and we don’t even know if we are taken off the ai, so I figured it was best to just lock the fics so the ai couldn’t get to them (this is confirmed by the ai creator herself).

Additionally, while the creator of lore.fm has said she’s shutting it down…this isn’t the first time she’s said she’d do that, so I’m taking that claim with a grain of salt.

So if you’d like to keep reading BT, I highly encourage you to make an account! It’s a really easy thing to do, though how long the wait list is depends on how long it will take to verify your account. Luckily, about 100 (? I think) verification emails are sent every day, so it won’t be too long <3

Hope you all are well! Think I’ve figured out my summer semester homework schedule now so I’m hoping the next chapter will be here soon!

[burning-thistles-bt]

when the Shower Thoughts reveal that I was the one who wrote Copperleaf's first POV, and also his last...

[burning-thistles-bt]

anyone else completely murdered after EPIC’S The Thunder Saga?

because I AM AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[burning-thistles-bt]

snippet sneak peek because I have the first half of the chapter done :3 Will move on to the second in later!

[burning-thistles-bt]

Wow we're really digging into morals in this new chapter, huh? Fingers-crossed I do it justice🤞

[burning-thistles-bt]

omg it's a miracle.

i'm actually writing the next chapter rn

yayyyyy

[burning-thistles-bt]

guess who cleaned up the first vine video because the editing on the previous on was driving her mad?

me, that's who haha!

[burning-thistles-bt]

Checking in :)

January's been a bit hectic for me (Alder) lately. 3 of my 4 classes are rooted in reading & writing, so that eats up A Lot of my time during the day, and some nights I need to just. read a fun book (like the Iliad). or watch a show (like the PJO show). or aimlessly scroll tumblr/ao3 because i am braindead lol

(can you tell my mythology obsession is still going strong?)

(also started watching tangled the series last week. getting into it lol)

Anyway. I am hoping Monday will have some time to write if I managed my workload correctly lmao Gonna flip between the new BT chap and my current ToA fic.

Hope the Winter Holidays were great for everyone! Getting dumped on with snow now! Which is ironic because we had NO SNOW between Thanksgiving and Christmas!

AND THEN GOT CONTINUOUSLY DUMPED ON LIKE THREE DAYS AFTER CHRISTMAS AND IT WON'T STOP AND IT'S FREEZING XD

global warming, amiright? knocks mother nature's schedule off-course lol stay safe everybody!

[burning-thistles-bt]

Still find it funny we're exchanging the focus cell lmaoooo

*checks next chapters*

doesn't bode well for the next chapter 0_0 which will be entirely written by me, and the one after that by Lolling 0_0

LOLLING QUICK PASS THAT CELL BACK AT ME AS SOON AS YOU'RE DONE WITH IT! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! WE GOTTA PLAY HOT POTATO REAL QUICK! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

SnowThistle

In Lolling's video, she says that she sees their relationship as not "Snow making Thistle a better guy" but "Thistle making Snow a worse person" and I'm in that same boat :)

Also Burn in Hell because Thistle deserves nobody <3

Also also yes I agree Lolling Snow bitch-slapped Thistle at his nine lives ceremony it's canon we don't make the rules (yes we do-)

DarkTiger

BlackTiger

The flavor Lolling has been throwing at us specifically :)))

LOLLING WHAT'S GOING ON

[burning-thistles-bt]

3 POVs down, 1 to go....

and it's a long one yay

i'm getting there everyone i'm getting there :3 only had the brainpower for Tawnypaw's POV today i am not ready for Fire's and the emotion in it hehe

[burning-thistles-bt]

Last time, it was Lolling who had to catch up on writing the next chapter. This time, it is me :3

I plan on doing the first POV tomorrow, though I just remembered my family and I will be going to the pumpkin patch so maybe it'll have to wait till Monday.

Also I'm making a point to spend a little more time with my little sister and we're reading the Percy Jackson books so that's gonna eat some time up as well but probably not a lot because we're aiming for a chapter or two every sitting.
