Moodboard Monday: Seismic

A gunslinger (asshole), a CEO (asshole) and a lawyer (asshole, but classy) walk into a bar? Here's hoping the owner's insurance can cover it.

For this week's MS: Moodboard Monday by @moon-and-seraph, I put together a little something for the three main characters of chapter 4 of my WIP Seismic. And even though the evening described in the chapter wasn't quite like the outing described above, these three are definitely going out for drinks together in the near future.

Nisha grins at her across the doorstep. Meg takes a step forward and kisses her square on the mouth. After the initial shock, it’s not even that bad of a kiss. A little too much teeth, but she expected that much. The purple lipstick tastes like plum with a touch of jet fuel. She steps back and gives Nisha her sweetest smile. “Hope that was okay, Nish. Just wanted to give you a proper thank-you for showing Jack a good time, you know?” It only lasts three seconds, five tops. But it is official and confirmed: she has just rendered Sheriff Nisha Kadam, however briefly, speechless. “Hey, do that again,” Jack calls from behind her. “I didn’t get my ECHO out in time.” “You snooze, you lose, cowboy.” Nisha laughs at him over Meg’s shoulder. “So… Meg, right? Like I said, I don’t often go riding this side of the tracks, but tell you what, once you get bored of Mr. Hyperion back there, why don’t you swing by Lynchwood? May well be a bottle of whiskey with your name on it.” “Thanks, Sheriff.” Meg shoots her a wink. “I’ll keep that in mind.”

MOODBOARD MONDAY: Shelter

I can't hear the word without thinking of the Magiverse and its current WIP, House of Magi.

Shelter (a village, not to be confused with The Shelter), is a village built by the hands of a group of largely teenage Magi (magic weilders) who escaped from a psychiatric institute where recently-awakened Magi are held 'for their own good'.

Moodboard Monday: Favorite Colors

Theodora:

for theo, i orignally was just going to go with a dark orange, but realized as i was looking for pictures that she very much has the energy of a flame, so i incorporated red into her favorite colors as well.

Euphemia:

euphemia def loves pink, more specifically a soft pink. i think that she really enjoys light, softer tones in general.

Arabella:

arabella has big dark purple vibes imo. there's something very serious yet magical about this color, and i think that suits her quite well.

Sophronia:

soph is another multicolored one ! i was just going to do blue, but i feel she would enjoy both colors equally.

this was a lot of fun to do, and very interesting, as i think the general colors i associate with this wip to be very warm colors, like brown, yellow, orange, red, etc. so i thought it was surprising that the characters themselves didn't quite fit into that pattern.

M+S Moodboard Monday: Wilderness

New Royston is an old town, hundreds of years old. As such, there's only a few natural spaces left in its borders: the Green near the center of town, the beach to the south, and Southaven Forest to the southwest.

The Grove's been torn on what to do with this space, with many wanting to leave it as an untouched space, others wanting to turn it into more residences for the Grove, and still others wanting to commercialize it for one purpose or another. It seems every few months, some of the trees get marked with paint and some machines move in to start clearing land, but something always happens. The machines roll back to where they came from and lichen grows over the paint.

Can anyone blame the Grove for its indecisiveness? The Forest is a beautiful place, equally peaceful and haunting. Like many other places in New Royston, those who enter get the distinct feeling of being watched...

Tagging @gummybugg for TCoNR content!

Moodboard Monday Saturday

[Theme: dreams]

“I dream of a wolf mother, with a child like mine and half a jaw. Sometimes I dream I am her and I lope through the forest, starving. When I wake up, all I can think about is running away, on all fours like her, until my feet and hands are calloused like a dog’s pads. [...] I may be feral.”

Focusing on a more horror-y fare for this week's MS: Moodboard Monday.

From my WIP Shadows, which is a Borderlands/Don't Starve crossover that's somehow ended up focusing on the most heartbreaking bits of both games so far.

what is the matter, father? The distorted, agonizing blare of Angel’s shadow voice through his mind is the loveliest sound in every world Jack’s ever known. “Save him!” Jack jerks his head towards the shadow play in the air, where Rhys has barely managed to dodge another swipe of the tree beast’s claws. “You said you were going to help him, Angel! Is this what you call helping him?” “Oh, no.” The magic aura falls away from Angel as she joins Jack in staring at the events unfolding a few world hops away. “Oh, I thought he was going to be okay. He was in no danger when I left him—” “Well, he’s in a whole damn lot of danger NOW!” Jack bellows. “Don’t just stand there, DO something!” “Yes!”  YES  “I will help, I just—”  need to think  “—for a moment. Um. Ugh.” my head She holds her head with both hands as her entire shape flickers, cycling between her human form and the deepest shadow state, and every state in-between, and Jack wants nothing more than to hold her and tell her it’s going to be okay and to shake her and yell at her to get herself together before it’s too late. Bound to his throne as always, he can do neither. Except grit his teeth to stop himself screaming his helpless rage to the ceiling.

MOODBOARD MONDAY: Dream

Trying to get back in the groove of writing book 2 of the Truth Saga and @moon-and-seraph's MBM came up on my dash just in time!

The snake was wrapped around his throat, dragging him down into thick, black oil. He choked, tried to scream, but the oil filled his mouth and no sound could leave. There was a knife in his hand. The metal was cold in his palm as he lifted it through the sludge. His hand came free, plunged the weapon into the snake’s coiled body – but the snake was gone. His throat burned and blood coated his hand.

Blade, the main character of Bitter Truth, is an extremely closed off and brainwashed man, to the point where he can scarcely understand or recognise his own emotions in his waking life.

As such, one of the main narrative tools I use is his nightmares, thick with symbolism to warn him where his mind is at throughout the novel. These nightmares are recurring/themed so I thought I'd throw together a moodboard based on them!
