Find the Words!

This tag came from @dogmomwrites! Thanks for tagging me in - I've been looking to get back into these.

Passing on with soft tags for @i-can-even-burn-salad, @k--havok, @authoralexharvey, and @writing-with-melon. Your words will be blue, night, first, and away. If you can't find one, leave a fun fact about your WIP, OCs, or writing process!

My words were beyond, disturb, fetch, and dark. Be forewarned - some of it is NSFW :)

Beyond

Claimed by the Flame of Faery - coming out Oct 18

"Both?" he asked, breathy and full of hunger. "Uh-huh," I gasped out in return, clinging to him. Gods, I was the one undone by him. I couldn't think beyond the thrust and drag of his cock inside me, except to crave more. I needed it—needed him—couldn't believe I'd gone weeks without this. "Fuck, Varis, now, please—" Something hit the floor as Varistan fumbled with the bedside table. He snarled a curse, then simply yanked the drawer fully out of the table and snatched the bottle of oil out of the ensuing chaos. He stroked oil down along the spade of his tail, shuddering from it. With a low growl, he shifted and bit the other side of my neck, his hips snapping against mine. "Gods, Bells, I love feeling your cunt grab me when I sink these dragon's fangs into your pretty neck—"

Disturb

The Goddess of Passion (Part 1: Sacrificed to the Goddess)

I'm actually publishing this on Kindle Vella under the pen name Alessandra Caine!

I was finishing up my meal, practicing my sultry lounging on the couch as I fed myself grapes like I was my own lover, when there was a knock on the door of my suite. I sat up, somewhat surprised at being disturbed. "Come in," I called, setting my grapes back down in their bowl. The door opened, and Merula stepped through. She bowed to me, then stood again. "Your glory, I have with me a hetaira from Nehisk District. He is renowned as a dancer, and is said to be an excellent lover." I raised my eyebrow at her when she hesitated, curious as to why she was giving me this introduction without him next to her. "And?" I asked, trying to keep my voice gentle. She licked her lips. "He is a daemon, your glory, and was attacked three months ago by a man who despised his kind, and who killed two others before he was caught and executed. He bears the scars from it, and can no longer work as a hetaira, but you said..." She hesitated again, then took a breath and continued. "You said you wanted people of all kinds, your glory. I recalled the trial, and sought him out for you."

Fetch

Rain in the Desert - backburner WIP

I stepped forward and held out the lantern. "Trade you," I said with a smile. "I'll fetch the things and meet you up there. You can hang the lantern up so I know where to go. Would you like anything besides hoof supplies?" He let me shoulder my pack before taking the lantern. One of his fingers brushed against mine as he wrapped them around the handle. Heat shocked down my arm, thudding into my chest as my heart quickened and my cheeks warmed. It felt as if I'd never been touched before—as if the soft contact of his index finger running along the side of my pinkie had made that sense bloom into life. I swallowed, trying not to stare at him, or to look like some sort of desperate maiden swooning over the attention of her beau. This wasn't like that. Ash wasn't like that—would never look at someone like me with interest. That he trusted me enough to let me help him with his feet was nothing short of miraculous. To be attracted to him - to even think about indulging that attraction - was ridiculous.

Dark

King of Ice and Shadow - WIP - planned for Jan 2024

The door of ice shatters. Even expecting it, I jump, the broken-glass sound so shocking I start sweating despite the cold. It falls like a chandelier cut from the ceiling, crystal skittering across the frozen ground. One shard kisses my boot. I crush it underfoot. Through that dark doorway steps my fate. The Winter King is so cold and stark that even the firelight can't warm him. I take him in with a glance made sharp by adrenaline. His long hair falls down his back like a waterfall of ice. A crown of crystal and silver rests on his head. A unicorn's tail curls behind him, brushing the ground. The winter chill seems to roll off his skin, as if he carries a glacier in his soul.

Prompt 291

You know what? I’m feelin’ a Prompt with the whole halfa family, all the clones and everything. 

See, Danny? He’s grown up, he’s moved out, started looking at colleges himself after spending a few years travelling and learning about himself without the threat of a ghost attack. 

He’s kept in touch with his friends, both living and dead, and ignores Vlad for the most part now that they’ve reached a truce of sorts, and honestly? He’s just living his life. 

But see, it’s kind of hard to figure out what college to pick, with his admittedly not-great choices. Look, he might have a new-ish ID but he’s still visibly not exactly human (though thankfully doesn’t have to worry about the GIW after a… summer activity that ended with several missing buildings) 

And most people he goes to? Finds him ‘too unsettling’ which excuse him?? How is he unsettling? He’s a twenty-five year old with six kids ranging from one to six! How is that “scary” huh? Ancients, and all this is making him use the cash he’s saved up over time. 

And then- as though all of this isn’t stressful enough and he’s not genuinely worried that he won’t have enough money to feed the kids if he goes to school- a hero nearly trips over Jordan and starts freaking out. He is so fucking done.

‘the black bastard of the wall’ moniker is the exact opposite of the ‘white wolf’ moniker and this perfectly highlights the irreconcilable differences between book Jon and show Jon

Trick or treat 🎃

Have a treat! 🍬

Kairan doesn't meet my eyes when I look up. He looks like he'd rather get eaten by wolves than be standing here; I wonder what horrible bargain ended up with his feet planted in front of my door with an animal in a box. The thought cheers me up. I've yet to really get the better of him in a bargain, but it's nice to know that someone can. Maybe I'll succeed one day. I give him a pretty smile that makes him jerk his chin up in opposition, and open the box. The creature inside isn't one that's ever graced the mortal world. Fluffy, white, and small enough to fit in a teacup, it looks like someone gave a dandelion puff eyes and a pair of round ears. It cheeps again before rearing up, the tiny claws of furry, batlike wings poking out from the white fur. "Aren't you cute," I croon, sticking my hand into the box for the animal to sniff. "I prefer 'handsome'," Kairan mutters, immovable.

Ice King to Simon feels like what Fionna is to Finn. There's a base template that was shared between the two but ultimately, they are separate entities that grew and developed in ways unique to themselves.

and this is where the writing gets Rocky, because I genuinely find it hard to read Ice King and Simon as the same person but the characters always treat the two as one and the same

After the big reveal, Ice King is treated like Simon but remixed, except... the way Ice King develops - and look, we spent hours with this character, he wasnt just a joke

In his words, "I am worthy of respect"

The way Ice King's character develops was for Ice King's benefit, not Simon's. Ice King making friends, Ice King no longer kidnapping - neither of those character developments made him more Simon-like. He becomes more and more individualized, forming a personality that felt Very Distinct from the bookish, modest Simon Petrikov.

As much as Simon is the victim in all this, I cant really blame Ice King for being born either. He was just a guy - a mean, lonely guy that with some kindness developed better behavior for the people that befriended him.

Like people are dumping hard on Simon, which sucks. But it's also like Ice King was Somebody's friend. Ice King was Somebody's hero. And it doesn't feel fair to all the hardwork he did for himself to wave him off as a false image.

The problem is he was somebody - not just a Simon reboot. He was somebody period.

So it makes sense that some people in universe (in the audience bc lets be real, Ice King had HOURS of screentime and Simon had maybe one) would mourn him. It just sucks that they keep directing that grief at Simon, and dumping on him as a result.

In my opinion, if it's disrespectful to Simon to be confused for Ice King, then it works the same vice versa.

||Next mission: The haunted mansion of lost souls||

Reserved Jujutsu kaisen au Rp with @demon-blood-youths

After the crazy night of the Hotel, the others thought it was all over but seems not. After a week, another mission was given to show some sort of Haunted Mansion? Gojo gave them another mission, speaking of another one. Megumi and Nobara watches from the side seeing the house was really a mansion!?

It even took Yuji to try an calm Sukuna who was already close to burning it. “Sukuna please calm down! I’m sure we ca-”

‘LET ME TAKE OVER!! I’M FUCKING THIS DAMN PLACE UP!!! I’M BURNING IT TO THE GROUND!!’

“Sukuna, you can’t! You’ll be killing others in the mansion-”

‘LET ME TAKE OVER!! I’M NOT GOING THROUGH SOMETHING THIS STUPID AGAIN!!!!!’

“Your not killing anyone!”

“YOUR NOT THE ONE TO TELL ME ANYTHING!!”

Megumi and Nobara sweat drops seeing Yuji and Sukuna arguing or him getting headaches from it. Yeah, the king was furious right now. He was even trying to hold his left hand down while showing flames since Sukuna was trying to take him over.

“..Should we do something?” Nobara said.

“...I..I don’t know if we can.” Megumi sighed.
