UPDATE 8-30-24
We're so back.
Chapter 1 of Greenwarden is chugging along! Greenwarden will (finally) update once I reach a common route between all the different branches. Current checklist is Bar Route -> Library Route -> Summer's House Route. None of you are ready.
TKP and Erinys are also chugging along! Those will update chapter-by-chapter -- at least that's the plan. Depending on how big they are, they might occasionally update like Greenwarden does, which is whenever I reach a common point between branching paths.
Snippets underneath the cut.
[ID: White text on a dark gray background. The text says: "'What the fuck was that?" You could cry with relief. Bautista. He all but throws his gun into his holster on his way to you. His hands smooth over your neck and face until he notices the drying gash in your stomach.
"'No, no, no,' he sounds shaky. 'Nazeri!' You're starting to feel distant and wobbly, a mirage. Cold all over. Nazeri is still putting on a pair of gloves by the time he kneels by your arm. He has a thin mask over his face. It still doesn't hide the way his pupils go deep and wide and dark smelling all that blood." /end ID]
[ID: White text on a dark gray background. The bottom line of text is bright red. The text says: "You have to fight your instinct to run, wrestle with it until you can pin it down just enough you don't scream and sprint for the hills. You run through your Rolodex of woodland training. Coyotes are ambush-persuit predators when they're not scavenging. They're sprinters by nature — not like wolves or people. Skittish and easily startled, but stubborn. You might be able to make yourself not worth it.
'I see you, motherfucker,' you shout, puffing out your chest and raising your arms to look bigger. Your jacket helps. You feel like a great big stupid bird. It doesn't take the hint right away. If anything, it gets closer out of curiosity.
'Go on!' It jerks back. 'Go on, get!' You get brave and stomp the ground in front of you. Threat displays.
The second you bend down to pick up a rock, you realize you made a mistake. Between one second and the next it's in front of you.
You've never seen a coyote so white, nor one with eyes so blue.
You stare into each others' eyes. Breathless for a few precious seconds. What next?
What comes next is that it smiles at you. Human-like, with pointed canid teeth. The way its mouth moves makes you nauseous — it shouldn't bend like that, it's eyes shouldn't crinkle that way, and you end up making some kind of strangled gag noise before stumbling back.
'Go on,' it says, very calmly. 'Get.'
Doesn't have to tell you twice." /end ID]

DESIDERIO RUA
(Tracker, Nazeri + Trace Romance, Greenwarden)
JT Music's Rest In Ink
This is a song for the sheep
Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?
Well you shouldn't be
'Cause evil's something I couldn't be
My head's full of teeth, but they're made for smiling
Despite the bodies pilin' up, ignore 'em
And look for a door
Only an exit, open nothing more
I'd rather not get ripped apart
Can I trust you with my heart?
Hahahaha~
Go on and draw your boundaries
But I'm bound to cross some lines
In a world devoid of color
There is one I call divine
Black is the color of laughter
Black is the color of joy
Black is the blood on my casket
It's the palette of the void
Black is happy-ever-after
As tragedy is to befall
I blacken my soul with disaster
Leave it plastered on the walls
Where would a wolf wander without his pack?
As sanity sinks and then slips through the cracks?
Any lingering light will leak into the black
So welcome aboard the train without track
Lay back on the surgery table, my hands are unsteady
But surely I'm able of cracking your cage
And setting your rage free
I'll replace you if you betray me!
Ink hath runneth over
And the tide will only rise
But beware the undertow
Your final throes are growing nigh!
Want a bone? Here's one, I'll throw ya
You woke up in someone's mind
Just like I did, so don't fight it
There is nowhere left to hide
Death is no such dreadful thing
When you can rest in ink
This is your lullaby
He'll set you down to lie
Then hang you out to dry
And make you proud to die
Black is the color of laughter
Black is the color of joy
Black is the blood on my casket
It's the palette of the void
Black is happy-ever-after
As tragedy is to befall
I blacken my soul with disaster
Leave it plastered on the walls
What's an identity but a lie?
'Cause the man that I once was, wasn't I
See a monster is all in perspective
Pretend that this song is your posthumous lullaby
Now your pain is in paint, and I'll watch it dry
Then a permanent stain, you'll become with time
You're the sideshow, don't be mistaken
'Cause I'm the one takin' home all of the bacon
He's always closin' in
The halls are growing dim
The walls are closin' in
And nothing else is holding him
Play your favorite tune aloud
To make you braver through your doubt
You've made your way to proving grounds
Stay and face the music now
Death is no such dreadful thing
When you can rest in ink
This is your lullaby
He'll set you down to lie
Then hang you out to dry
And make you proud to die
Black is the color of laughter
Black is the color of joy
Black is the blood on my casket
It's the palette of the void
Black is happy-ever-after
As tragedy is to befall
I blacken my soul with disaster
And leave it plastered on the walls
Black is the color of laughter...
Death is no such dreadful thing
When you can rest in ink
This is your lullaby
He'll set you down to lie
Then hang you out to dry
And make you proud to die
