blease... i'm pegging you....

[raevenlyreads]

Why you should commission me as a tarot reader specifically

I'm queer as hell, so therefore my interpretations will be queer as well

Same with being neurodivergent of only god knows what flavor

I say things in my interpretations like "not yet, Ferb"

I have many many lovely decks to choose from

srsly your reading may or may not read like an absolute shitpost depending on the vibe of our pre-reading chats

oh, did I mention you get pre-reading chats? So you're not just like going in blind? I will help you figure out a) what your question even actually is actually and 2) what spread is best for what you want to know

Vague-an (that's vaguely pagan) so I'll probably say things like "oh yeah big Aquarius energy there" but I won't say things like "divine feminine"

oh yeah also I dabble in astrology so i'll say things like "big aquarius energy there"

did I mention the neurodivergent and queer? this reading will not be normative in the slightest

dork ass nerd so you can commission spreads from me like the Tri-Force of Ways You're Awesome or a sakkri from the Kiesha'ra books

So yeah. Come check my ko-fi out. Even if its just to look at some pretty decks for a minute

Happy Storyteller Saturday! In keeping with October spookiness, I want to know: What would your characters SAY their worst nightmare is? Are they telling the truth? Or are they hiding a deeper, darker fear?

Hi raevenly, sorry it took so long to answer this. This one had me scratching my head a little bit since, while I know Selene and Meredith extremely well, this question made me look into them both a lot more deeply. Selene

I think Selene would say that her worst nightmare is watching Toreguarde fall into a pile of rubble all over again, which is still a legitimate nightmare for her in all honesty, so she's not lying necessarily... However, her deepest and darkest fear is being abandoned by everyone she cares about, or being the last one of her family left standing. It's not a fear that's particularly well-hidden though, because anyone who knows her even a little can tell that's what the underlying issue is, but she still tries to hide it anyway.

Meredith

Merri's a much more straightforward kind of person. She doesn't see much point in trying to hide her fears and nightmares (probably because her parents are so attentive, can tell when something's off and have enough experience to get her to spill whenever she tried to hide something that bothered her as a child). Her worst nightmare is having her society crumble out from under her all over again and never recovering from it. She's already seen the Horrors that are the Demon War and the schism that led into a wholesale Civil War that then led up to Ragnarok and she does not want to repeat any of it thankyouverymuch. The other worst nightmare is, obviously, losing her entire family, both biological and found, before their time (I say that last bit only because the found family is mostly made up of heritages that have much shorter lifespans than dwarves).

Thanks again for the question, and I hope things are well on your end.

Intro post!

Hello!

You can call me Plum, and this is my Bungo Stray Dogs sideblog!

Relatively new to the fandom (entry point: may 2024, exit point: I never leave fandoms and fandoms never leave me), slowly catching up (there's a lot of stuff... help), still, I'm a woman that fears no spoilers, so you'll find some here; I'll tag them accordingly.

Let's be friends! 💌

Happy Storyteller Saturday! What's one aspect of writing that always puts a smile in your face?

hey, thanks for asking! the answer would be writing soft scenes. I don't know if that's what is meant by "aspect" but when i write soft and fluffy scenes i end up grinning so hard ejjddjdjdb

[raevenlyreads]

Happy Storyteller Saturday! :P What excites you about writing?

this is super vague answer but...

just the art of writing. the fact that i’m creating, and can show other people that all of this came from inside my brain!! you know how crazy that is? it’s just so fun and super satisfying once i finish that scene or that chapter. and it’s even better when i show people and they’re just as interested in it as i am. it’s awesome

now i just have to find friends who are interested in it owo

[ happy storyteller saturday! come send me an ask! ]

[dragon-swords-prophecies]

Bladesingers, you say? That sounds super rad tell me more!

Hi, happy wbw! Thanks for the ask!

So bladesingers are a type of ancient elven warrior which were almost entirely eradicated when Londori (elven homeland) was destroyed during the first dragon war. (The only surviving one was a elf named Thia Nailo, who survived merely by being late for a conference by two days. she has a pet panther. and an eagle).

They combine magic wizard shit with swords, and it looks really really cool when they do it.

And my brain has decided to discard every single thing I worldbuilt about this (which was serval things!) and I am too lazy to go look at my notes so that's all I have now but watch me reblog this later with all that info, save it in my drafts for two months, and then post it then.

WAIT!!!!!!!!!

Their signature color is a weird fiery orange-yellow. Its fun. And full bladesingers wear a sash with criscrossing bits, and appretices wear a sash without a second one crossing over the first.

Days of the week holidays (Out of Touch Thurs, Wet Beast Wed, etc) not included bc I was going more for yearly/seasonal vibes

Looking for more spreads? Check out my commissions page on ko-fi!

Giving Advice Spread

Giving Advice Spread

For that moment when someone comes to you for advice, and you’re not sure how to proceed.

Shuffle, separate deck into four piles, one in the center and three around it forming a loose triangle. From each pile, draw one card for the querent. For extra insight for yourself, draw as many cards from the corresponding pile as you feel you need. Whether or not you share these cards with the querent is up to you.

Card 1, what is the root of the problem

Card 2, What do they need to hear

Card 3, What do they want to hear

Card 4, What are they receptive to hearing

[raevenlyreads]

Backlist Booze Book: Raev's Favs

I wanted to share some of my favorite slides, bc I worked really hard on this (much harder than a comic sans tumblr powerpoint is meant to be worked on lol)

I really loved playing with the transparencies on this one, overlaying several shots that felt kinda like the dreamy way Morgan gained some of her witchy powers

I love the silliness of this slide. Some of my favorite bits are mentioned here. It's such a perfect little snapshot of goofs

More overlay fun, putting the skull drink over the carkeys just turned out *so good* (much better than the book lol)

I wanted to show this one off without the text box in the way. Again, so much better than the book it represents XD

Honorable mention to this one bc I'm in it :P I took *so many* photos for this, my only ep. it was a blast. 10/10 would guest again

Wowie Zowie scheduled up through day 21! Woohoo!

Happy Tender Tuesday! How would your OCs answer the question "So how did you meet?" Would their answers match each others? How close is their version of the story to the truth?

London would say they met when he got a job working for her in a very behind the scenes way then he pushed to get a bigger job and become closer to her. She would say about the same but in a much more crass fashion, calling him some human guy who couldn’t leave her alone about wanting more money and she gave him a promotion to shut him up.

Marcy would say that she sometimes does business with Evaine. She doesn’t know when it started and it doesn’t matter. Evaine would tell you an entire story about their first encounter, what they were buying/selling, what caught her interest in the strange woman and the entire story of their first time actually talking to each other as people instead of business acquaintances.

London would say that Evaine helped bandage him up when he almost died. Evaine would say she was hired to save an acquaintances pet human.

Most Tender Tusday posts from me are going to be very poly. Get ready Tumblr! 

Thanks for the ask!

Happy Storyteller Saturday! Tell us about how the story "plays" in your head. Are you a visual person, watching the scene like a movie? An audio person, hearing the lines to write out in your head like an audiobook? What's it like in there, before it makes it out here?

Most of the time, I see flashes of characters and scenes with tiny bits of audio and maybe a feeling. I have a wee bit of synesthesia so things like colors and numbers match up in ways they wouldn’t in other people, and those wires cross the same ways in my stories. Everyone I know (real and fictional) has a color that they are (Angel is dull purple, Lennan is light blue/green, Asas is dark red, etc) even though it doesn’t necessarily mean anything. I like to build off of the color or number that the character is and work it into the story even if no one but me understands it.
