#it lives!

Today in places you don't expect to return to, and the fics there that are slightly less dead than expected.

Since it's been a hot minute and a blog shift, here's the fic summary:

Once accepted into Beacon Academy, Ruby never thought anything could get in the way of her training to become a Huntress. Then mysterious forces attacked, Beacon fell, and she wakes up to find the Atlas Military has kidnapped her (and declared her dead to the world) under the guise of keeping her and her silver eyes safe. Now Ruby, alongside Penny, who is similarly assumed-dead-but-not-really by the world, fights to define what it means to have legendary magical powers and protect Atlas and Mantle from the forces, both inside and out, that could destroy them, and all of Remnant.

It has returned!

After a long time away from home on the battlefield, my love has returned to me. Oh AO3, how I have missed you. Desolation had set in, and I nearly resorted to completing procrastinated tasks. But in a moment of blind faith I checked, and there you were waiting for me. Now time to read the 100k fic I've been saving for a special occasion...

Lyra, my beloved cat of 13 years, passed away this year on Father's Day. She's been by my side through very difficult times and was my little rock of steady and unrelenting love. I struggled a lot drawing this, and struggled a lot posting it, but I know I would've wanted to read a comic like this that validated my grief for her when I lost her.

Wherever you are, Lyra my little summer star, I love you always! Thank you for being the best thing in my life.
