December 17: smile | @jegulus-microfic | word count: 495

a small gift for @lulublack90 since I have awoken

James had never seen Regulus Black smile. Like ever.

Obviously, he’d taken it upon himself to be the first person to make him smile.

However, this mission proved to be more difficult than James had expected it to be. He’d tried everything in his book: jokes, funny faces, compliments, smiling at him first to get him to do it back, harmless pranks, and even sending him anonymous love note (who knows, maybe he could have been a sap at heart) (spoiler alert: he wasn’t). None of this worked though, to James’ utter dismay and frustration.

Admittedly, it was quite a trivial and insignificant thing to be upset about, but James’ every waking moment quickly became consumed with his mission. 

Now, as James was walking back to the Hogwarts castle after picking nice flowers for his dorm by the lake, he was contemplating if he should just give up. 

Looking down as he walked, he couldn’t help but notice how saddened he became by the idea of giving up. 

What he didn’t notice, however, was Regulus, who he ran straight into. He dropped his bundle of flowers while the boy opposite him dropped his books.

James quickly bent down to pick up their things, expecting a barrage of insults and quips from the Slytherin about being more careful where he was going next time. 

Regulus crouched down at the same time to pick up his things, and oh. 

James knew he probably looked stupid ogling the boy like he was, but he couldn’t help but stare. He was breathtaking up close. Perfect curls and porcelain skin and high cheekbones and slightly pink, plush lips formed in a tiny o. His brilliant blue eyes framed by a dark row of lashes met James’ plain old brown eyes, and James felt a tug in his chest. 

Regulus looked down and James’ gaze stupidly followed. Below them, their hands were resting on each other over one of the flowers James had dropped.

All at once, James suddenly became very, very aware of just how close they were.

James brought his eyes back up to Regulus’ face, and oh, again. 

The boy’s face was now dusted with a light blush. Just barely noticeable, but it was there.

Regulus pulled his hand away from James’ and stood up, grabbing his books in the process.

He looked like he was about to walk away, and James yelped, probably too loudly, “Reg! Wait!” He stood up hastily, quickly gathering his flowers. He pulled out a light blue carnation and held it out for Regulus. “It matches your eyes.”

The boy in front of him blushed even harder and tentatively reached out and took it. “Thanks,” he murmured softly, a soft smile playing on his lips. It was a plain and simple feature yet it softened the hard lines of Regulus’ face and brought a light to his eyes James had never seen anything like. 

Godric, what James would do to see that again.

There are 2 types of ao3 authors

Type 1: "Omg guys I'm so sorry this chapter is late I'm currently on the run from the US government and we never stay at one place long enough for me to charge my laptop so I had to handwrite everything using my blood as ink (my bf used all the pens to leave secret messages to our friends) in the dark. I had to break into someone's home to post this and I'm currently dodging bullets as I type the A/N btw. Next update will be on Tuesday unless I die."

Type 2: "Thank you for all the love guys! I'll try to update soon" [It's been 11 years]

an event that changed several lives forever.

Note: transcript for the images will be at the bottom of the post (sorry for the messy handwriting!)

Gitriea-II — the planet of isolation.

I wanted this piece to highlight the cataclysmic event that took place at Gitriea-II’s church that altered the lives of hundreds, though most didn’t know that that night would be their last. Only few survived to recall the tragedy.

TW for vague mentions of abuse, death, and religious trauma.

(so please read with caution)

I won’t go into extreme detail about every character, I’ll probably make separate posts deep diving into each character more and give them the attention they deserve. I’ll briefly mention each character in order (top to bottom) and their present faction.

- Gabriel — Genius Society as an assistant, but pursues architectural studies through the Intelligentsia Guild

- Eve (left) — Intelligentsia Guild (cousins with Gabriel and Shiloh)

- Shiloh — Astral Express member (Gabriel’s little sibling)

- Mary (red hair) — Astral Express member

- Elijah (in Mary’s arms) — Stellaron Hunter

Gabriel and Mary had been planning on wedding, as throughout their youth they were hopelessly in love with each other (it was a kind of puppy love, one slipping the other gifts or gentle hand touches). They hadn’t done anything out of line for two teenagers planning on marrying one another, until they shared a kiss. It was sweet, but it was forbidden. You were expected to reserve your chastity until you were wed, as that was how the Church functioned. Any kind of forbidden acts would lead to punishment, and Gabriel was more than aware of that. As every time he would answer a question wrong or was out of line, the Mothers would ‘redirect’ him with force. He always kept his sleeves rolled down because of it. Mary was already known to be a ‘defective’ child, as her parents went against the church and were ostracized. Mary’s bright red hair and vibrant yellow eyes matched her mother’s and father’s respectively, so there was no hiding her roots. She was a slightly rebellious teenager, though. She knew little about her parents, but remember how much they loved each other, and how she wanted to share that love with Gabriel. Gabriel was scared, though. The paranoia took over him and clawed at his throat, and he was truly afraid of the consequences of loving too much before marriage.

Gabriel would’ve never expected what would’ve happened to Mary when he told the Mothers about what they did. Searing wax poured on her gentle and soft hands, scorching the skin and forever altering both her mind and her flesh. She would never be able to love with her hands again, that’s what the mothers said. After days of her recovery, Mary had approached Gabriel, a smile on her face with hope that things between them wouldn’t be ruined. She didn’t know he was the one that told the mothers. As she asked about how he was, she was met with a cold and unforgiving gaze, a scowl curled on his lips with venom. He told her to never speak to him again, and the whiplash of cruelty brought tears to her eyes. He was never like this before, why was he being so cruel now? Was she truly never meant to love anyone?

With a broken heart, she respected his wishes and left him alone, and not long after, he left to do his missionary work. Maybe he’ll find a woman that can love him, she thought. It took a while for Mary to navigate her tasks with the state of her hands now. But, eventually she was able to do her work with minimal accidents. She worked hard, though being told plenty of times that she was ‘defective’, she wanted the approval from the mothers. She wanted to become a mother and make people proud of her. So she worked. She worked so hard.

One night, she had been cleaning around one of the prayer rooms. She often worked at night so she wouldn’t have the urge to talk to anyone, as it often resulted into an uncomfortable end. She did still experience issues with fine motor skills, especially with her fingers and wrists. The prayer rooms often had plenty of lit candles, as it was one of the primary ways the Church remained lit during the night. Mary reached over with her rag to gently dust an area near the candles and consequently knocked one over. The embers didn’t take long to travel up the cloth hanging over the alter and up the walls. There were dozens of lit candles, and they all began to fester into a large flame. She hurriedly ran out to get help, but it was too late by the time she had gotten to one of the boys in the church, Isaac. The embers quickly engulfed the church, and Mary was only able to pull one other person out, a small child, Elijah. She had no idea there were other survivors.

By the time Gabriel returned home from his missionary duties, it was far too late. The church was nothing but ashes. He couldn’t believe it. Everything he had cared about was gone, and he was sure this was his God’s plan for divine punishment. It has to be. He let out a distraught cry and fell to his knees, the bitter cold snow engulfing him in an icy hug. He sobbed and sobbed until all his senses went numb and everything went dark.

holy shit yapfest over, i hope y’all enjoy some of this writing stuff.. i didn’t even talk about Rory and Isaac, but they’re not in this piece sooo..

Elijah, Shiloh, Isaac, and Rory all belong to @sawnday and he also was a writer for a lot of this lore so.. credit :)

It’s all I’ve ever wanted

All of my life

To be seen as I am

For all I am

Yet here I am

Lying awake

So, so afraid,

They will see me

The way I do

The ugly truth, behind that pretty smile

The maggots and worms that float under my skin

The throns that sink deep within

Hungry teeth

And resentment

Carried on me like the extra weight I hold

Begging on my knees

For my body to please let it go

How terrible

How awful

To have to hide this from you

But how can I hide

If my soul doesn’t want to

How do I show you

The ugliest parts of me

And not jump out of my skin in disbelief

Pure disbelief of the girl staring back at me

just learned the barred Is rule/guideline for comic lettering.

It isn't often applicable for comics that have upper and lowercase lettering tho. That seems to be a lot rarer, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's for some reason I don't know of. But as far as personal preference, which do you prefer?
