I want more horror like the thing where you're somewhere isolated like in the arctic or an oil rig or the deep mountains or a dead planet and you're studying sciencey things or doing something mundane and you come across Something™ and it's some nasty little creature/alien/??? and body horror and chaos ensues ouuuaarghgghghgh

If Heather hadn't died at Carnivale, Tozer would've hauled Heather across King William Land until he dropped in harness himself. If he had no boat to haul him in he would've thrown him over his shoulder in a fireman's carry and marched.

(im actually supposed to be doing something else rn(my plates💀💀💀) but im just so giddy rn) i was gonna make it so that thawed!mc gets up and leaves before lyney's arm could even make contact with the back of the couch😭 but i feel like he's been taking L's after L's lately so I'll let him have this (for now)

i hc thawed!mc to be kind of a nerd,,,LMAOOOOO i can just imagine her interupting a random orphan and be like; "uhm akshually ☝️🤓" and just set everything on fire.

like, shes not even book smart. she just knows random ass shit from the weird books she gets her hands on😭😭😭

thawed!mc: "did u know, a folklore in inazuma says that their sea ganodermas are transformed souls of children who died young. As a form of punishment, they must spend endless years absorbing the elements within the sand and sea using their fragile bodies, pilling them up, and forming a 'sea ganoderma'."

lyney, not listening AT ALL: "really??? omg tell me more..(heart eyes)"

sighhh coping rn w their childhood relationship before u serve us w angst and successfully rip me open and pick every bone in my body /lovingly

UGH my baby. our child 😭😭😭😭

I think Nightcloud's Thaw (assuming you keep that title) is a great idea not only because your Nightcloud is so interesting and because she as a character deserves more spotlight, but also because it would be interesting to see Crowfeather begin to change from her perspective. After all, you said it was a surprise he offered to help save Breezepelt at all- and what better way to show that than for us to not be inside his head when he makes the decision to offer to help?

I'm feeling more and more confident about it. I think BB!Nightcloud is absolutely the best choice of a character to observe the events of "Crowfeather's Trial," now Nightcloud's Thaw.

Nightcloud's Thaw is an okay title for now, but I want to bat around some more names.

It's meant to invoke the way her life begins to turn around, after Crowfeather's exile; beginning with that reveal, how Crowfeather's behavior reaches a breaking point in the Clan, her reputation turn-around, and finally accepting Crowfeather's help in aiding Breezepelt.

So "thaw" is one way to put it... but if I could capture something more related to the change of seasons or time, that would be good too. Nightcloud's Daybreak, Nightcloud's Horizon.

We can go through Nightcloud's process of unlearning with her.

The dread and fury at the reveal, the shock when Crowfeather actually sees a consequence, and the way that suddenly the Clan is sympathetic towards her in a way they'd never been

How this newfound empathy feels somewhat insulting to her, but, how it helps her start to realize that she DOESN'T deserve how Crow treats her.

Makes it easy to truncate most of OotS, can quickly be described as "they stayed together slightly longer, but if it wasn't dead, their relationship was quickly dying."

And really get to the meat of the story with how Crowfeather deflecting the blame of their son's Dark Forest training on her was the LAST straw. For everyone. Including Crowfeather himself.

(I think I'll actually change around the fight in the BOTTE to be Breeze attacking CROW, and Lionblaze STOPS him. Because killing his pathetic dad, in the end, wouldn't fix anything and would ruin his life forever. Really change it to stress that no one likes Crowfeather because of how he keeps treating people. If Crow wants to turn that around, he has to CHANGE.)

(Plus, something just feels nice about letting the two have a bond. Something about how they were both pulled out of the dirt at the Kitty Olympics and washed clean by Nightcloud, starting this deep, brotherly bond somehow. I'll have to revisit this.)

Nightcloud alone can link the way that Crowfeather is trying to change himself, AND the way Breezepelt is getting worse, in the way I want

She's cautious of Crowfeather, for good, obvious reasons. He hurt her, and has only ever used her good faith as leverage against her.

And she's charitable to Breezepelt, because she knows exactly what pain is behind his rash, emotional behaviors.

SO I can frame them both in the way I want through her eyes.

Plus, I need a place to put her childhood. If it's not here, I wouldn't have a good spot to put it.

I could link all the flashback segments with having Addersong pass away, since he would be VERY old at this point. It could be very bittersweet for her

She spent so much time away from her beloved mentor, who taught her so much.

She could have had so many wonderful years with him, his advice, and his songs. But now he's an elder in his last moons

All because she let her heart be hardened after the death of her family. Pain lead her astray so many times...

I'll probably rework a LOT of the stoat stuff. I know right away there's a lot of actions in CT I want to rip away from Crowfeather and hand over to Breezepelt; a lot of the loud, openly argumentative moments he has with Onestar for example. SHOW the way that Breezepelt interprets Harespring/Darkseeker's diplomatic responses as "sniveling and traitorous" to him.

Have Nightcloud be trying to bridge this gap between Breezepelt and his Clanmates with her new reputation, and it just not working.

Maybe shuffle Nightcloud's disappearance near the end of the book, around the time that the Kin appears. Show that his mother being suspected dead was a BIG reason Breezepelt made such an emotional choice to join the Kin, and bring his other allies with him.

It’s Snarky Baby Morse Saturday!

I submit to you, snark, an eye roll, youthful arrogance and utter contempt for our beloved Dorothea Frazil, as our baby walks off in high dudgeon after she asks him for a quote at the beginning of “Fugue”.

The smirk and eyeroll combo slay me.

New fic posted to ao3!

Try - When America invites himself to stay with Russia and his sisters, Belarus is less than pleased. The idiot is always annoying her, saying dumb things and flirting with her when he knows her heart's set on Big Brother. But after he surprises her with a kiss and she finds herself kissing back, she starts to think that maybe… Maybe she might like to try loving someone else. Even if that someone else IS an annoying American idiot…

(AmeBela, Hetalia, rated Explicit, no archive warnings apply, smut, one shot, angst & feels, drama & romance, complicated relationships, coming to terms with emotions)

This is another fic that has been on my laptop for ages. My other AmeBela fic, Thawed, reached 100 hits though! So to celebrate I'm publishing this one ahead of some of the other fics I still need to publish. Enjoy!

it's awesome that i grew up vegetarian and my parents weren't good cooks because every time i make some wretched cooking disaster as long as i don't think it's going to poison me i will still eat it and feel fine about it. my tolerance for shitty food is so high which is great because i'm broke as hell and too lazy to spend very much time cooking and don't like food waste.

hi everyone!! its a bit late but THAWED is getting so much attention recently and it’s really so so cool for me to see and hear how interested people are in literally what is a side hobby for me

it is a little intimidating because i went into it genuinely believing like three people would care about it (and those three would’ve been close friends already) and now i get asks from people asking whens the next chapter (!!!) but i think its a good kind of intimidating? it showed me that people care about this so i should keep up the good work

we still have 11 chapters to go through and it’ll be a long one—so i hope u stick through until the end !!! dont let lyney flop so easily now !!!! until then, you’d have to be patient with me w the updates so i can make it the best it can be for you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

sorry to get so cheesy around this hour lol its 10:30 and im feelinf a little emotional 😭😭😭😭😭

‘do you really hate me that much?’ ‘it isn’t hate. I cannot move forward until I tear you apart.’ THEY ARE SO.

IT ISN'T HATE MENTION‼️‼️‼️‼️

I like to think after getting bit by the spider Spider-people becom a lot more carnivorous. They just like meat a lot more or have a sudden craving for it more often. If they are vegan or vegetarian it’s a lot weirder but it’s like insatiable.

And it wouldn’t be like the meat itself but like the blood of it or just chewing all the juices out like how Spiders liquify their preys innards and eat. Maybe it’s only cooked meats, maybe it’s raw, either way they just really crave meat.
