#my own worst enemy

[great-and-small]

Can we forget about the things I said when I was fixating on the global biodiversity crisis

[raidermomma]

I'd be so easy to kidnap its actually scary.

You have a blue police box that's bigger on the inside? Awesome, I'm totally down.

You live on an abandoned mining ship with an evolved cat, a robot and a neurotic dead guy? Count me in.

You're Scottish? I'm there.

Fandom: RWBY / RWBY: Ice Queendom

Ship: Ozpin/Qrow Branwen/Roman Torchwick (Cloqwork Orange)

Description: Roman and Ozpin already thought they were living their worst nightmare, being bound body and soul to one another. They were wrong.

[This fic is set between My Own Worst Enemy and With Friends Like These. Is it canon within my AU? Uhh, if you want it to be! Posting in celebration of Vytal Festival 2024 hosted by @remnants-of-rwby-events​! As a double AU (AAU?), I think it fits today's prompt of Alternate Universes nicely.]

once I got bored while studying so I started scribbling a Remus to Sirius love confession and it was really really good but then days later my friend asked for my notes and I handed them over and they saw it and I laughed it off but I was so embarrassed I panicked and deleted it all and now I regret that SO BAD cause I can't remember any of it exept that it was beautiful

Por favor dime ¿por qué? ¿mi auto está en el patio delantero? y ¿estoy durmiendo con mi ropa puesta? ¿entré por la ventana anoche?

Y tú te has ido, te has ido.

[misguidedandperplexed]

me: is jewish

also me: doesn't like xmas songs

also also me: has constant earworms, songs very easily get stuck in my head for days

also also also me: voluntarily watched two xmas/xmas-adjacent movies today

you: can see where this is going

me, in summary: my own worst enemy

[hyperfocusthusly]

Today really did a number on me, so I wrote some self indulgent angst to avoid my problems

[isasmonologue]

we have hit a wall

and i have given everything i have

i have sacrificed my life for this body

and she hates me

she closes her eyes and holds her breath

she refuses the antidote

i tell her to breathe

i try to save her life

and she bleeds after each injection

she only wants illness

and a stick to hold herself upright

she wants pain

and she is all too confused

her brain stunts any currents

yet all mine thinks of is her

i devote all my days to her fire

and she waters it in an instant

i love her more than the ground i stand on

and she breaks my legs

i don't know how to keep loving her

i know her too well

i know her tricks

and her warmth

and i know there is no escaping her

she is my entire being

and i am her greatest knave

i once read a poem

of self worth

said to cherish your own loyalty

because you are the only one

who cannot and will not leave

i believed it when i read it

but who would she be

if not my own worst enemy

i feel her constant nagging

she relentlessly begs me to let go

my loving words never falter

she will never love me until i am done

and i cannot quit until she does

we have hit a wall

and all she does is lock the doors i build

to go out

Since I finished the ONQR AU, I've been going back and editing the core duology to create a manuscript for a personal print copy. It's the longest thing I've ever written and I wanted it on my bookshelf. Anyone else who'd like to have this series in book form is welcome to print your own copy from the same files (formatted for a 6" x 9" book, 788 pages) linked below. I used Barnes & Noble Press, but there are a bunch of print-on-demand book services out there. Of course, no profit can legally be made on this book (not even by me), but as long as it's a personal or gift copy, print away! 🤗

📙 Paperback File

📗 Hardcover File

📖 Interior File

(If you'd prefer to place an order for the finished book through me rather than going through the hassle of printing it yourself, I can order and have it shipped to you at cost. Just shoot me a message.)

✨Thanks again to everyone who took a chance on this insane series, but especially to @/goosegrumble who came up with the ONQR team name (and thus, the name for the whole dang AU)!✨

And if you do want to throw some money at me, a reminder that these 3D printed Cloqwork Orange and Cloqwork emblems are available in my Etsy shop! I also have all the typical merch options in my Redbubble shop.

Lit - "My Own Worst Enemy" [x]

[spookietrex]

Excuse me while literally all of my art projects get delayed because I bought a new sticker book so I can make my own stickers. 😈

Minded

My own worst enemy is my mind Take it out for a few days, so I can have a good time.  Stuck in my head - making my bed for all the wrongs that I've done.  Sharpen the blade, the bed has been made as I stare down the barrel of a gun.  I used to run into the world head first ready for battle.  This life has taken a toll on my poor dear old soul and left me rattled.  Which was is up, anything now to protect my heart.  Shelter the storm, gone on long past the norm, can't prepare my mind for this restart. So I hold on real tight, crying well into the night hoping to someday see the light.
