#the medoran chronicles fic

[caution-tripping-hazard]

“Does he know yet?” Niyx asked. Aven held his breath, awaiting her answer.

“No, last time we talked he said he hasn’t even had a soulmate vision yet. Which obviously makes sense considering we were in entirely different worlds for most of my life.”

Aven pressed a hand against his mouth to smother his gasp. The realisation hit him like a tonne of bricks. Aeylia meant him.

OR: Aven overhears a conversation that was NOT meant for his ears and makes a pretty fucking inaccurate assumption -- i sure hope this doesn’t have any negative consequences!!

IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE WHO LIKES THE MEDORAN CHRONICLES PLEASE COME BE MY BESTIE. Also does anyone have good fics bc this is like the smallest ive ever been in?

[zenithofstories]

so i know a lot of you followed me for the maasterlist of bonus chapters, and i gotta apologise for not doing much else in this fandom. i tend to do a lot of my fandom stuff on pinterest, and not a huge amount here.

however, i do write fanfiction. and i haven't actually told you guys about that. i was waiting to get past a planning stage, because i thought that would take a while, but it turns out it did not. so ahh, on a random tuesday (🤣), i'm writing an acotar fanfic. it's called A Court of Blades and Brushes, and it's an exploration of how the story would have been different if feyre had married tamlin at the start of mist and fury. if rhys and mor and cass and az hadn't been around to save feyre, would she have saved herself.

(it's on ao3, and currently restricted to users cause of all the ai bullshit and people making apps and who knows what else. if we get some actual rules for the internet we call home i'll unlock them again, but unfortunately that's not realistic right now)

it's gonna be long, and i'm a slow writer, but i have so many ideas and i am really enjoying it. this is a passion project and one i am going to be writing for years to come. so if you're interested, come check it out!

i'm planing to start announcing new chapters here, along with a changelog, because i am posting this fic as i write it and sometimes notice mistakes, or add details, or change something slightly from the chapters i've already posted. so i think i'm going to start doing that *shrugs*

if you want actual notifications, the best method is probably subscribing on ao3, to either the work itself, the series or just to me if you want emails about all my stuff (i've also written fics for The Medoran Chronicles by Lynette Noni, and some stuff for Harry Potter but i'm on hiatus from that atm. i'll get back to it someday. i promise. and a few other smaller fandoms. and i have more ideas. of course)

[an-ace-on-the-case]

Intro Post I Guess...

So I just realised I never made an intro post, so this is it.

Hi! Welcome to the chaos.

You can call me Ace if you want, or any version of my url.

I am extremely ADHD (I am medicated, but it doesn't always work...)

I'm aroace and I use she/her pronouns. (Pronoun Page here)

I am hyperfixating on Good Omens, but I also love Doctor Who, Sherlock, The Owl House, the Percy Jackson Universe, The Medoran Chronicles, and the Magnus Archives/Protocol.

I have done drama since I was 5, and I love musicals, even though I probably haven't seen/listened to the main ones (I need to get on that...)

I also love writing, and I have writen and posted Good Omens fics on ao3.

Also I have a dog.

Feel free to send me asks or just generally interact with me, I love chatting with people :)

Warning: I have no idea how to competently use tumblr so sorry about that I'm new here.

PLEASE DO NOT TAG ME IN NSFW STUFF

[revelationinthelightofday-writes]

Hi!! I think you are who I came looking for? If you wrote an whole bunch of fics for the medoran chronicles I should have found the right place (Maybe?)

I just wanted to say thank you for absolutely fuelling the medoran chronicles fandom with content (I’m pretty sure you make up like a quarter of the fics on ao3). I absolutely LOVE your fics and wish I could leave kudos twice 😭 your character dynamics always make perfect sense and your descriptions are always so lovely.

Anyway thank you so much <3

my headcount for tmc is fics is currently at 33 💀 so yes it’s likely that you’re in the right place!

I love writing for this fandom so much, I love playing around with Alex more than any other character and I’m SO glad you found my writing and enjoyed it 🫶🫶

Who was your first fictional crush?

Well...I thought I had a crush on Kaiden from the Medoran Chronicles, but it turns out...no. Just no. In hindsight I actually just thought of him as the ideal boy. *laughs in aroace*

What’s the first colour you think of when I tell you to think of a colour?

Purple (my favourite colour)

Which fanfiction emotionally scarred you and still makes you shudder to this day?

Some weird very badly written fic which had a smut scene that I'm 99% sure was not tagged. I noped out of there as quickly as I could but the damage was done.

Lasanga, with homemade cake and ice-cream from the shops for dessert.

Do you prefer lions or kangaroos?

Kangaroos

Which fictional villain do you brush past the glaringly obvious issues for because you really like them?

Just finished Sherlock, and I may be crazy but I love Moriarty as a character, he's insane and I'm 100% here for it

What would accompany your picture in the Burn Book in Mean Girls?

A mess of theatre kid, nerd, insane, loud, and queer. Do NOT talk to.

How many days would you last in the universe of your favourite fandom?

Good Omens - normal lifespan

Percy Jackson - dead the moment a monster attacks

Sherlock - ?????

Have you heard of Mischief Theatre?

No but it sounds fun

Do you feel sorry for Medusa?

Yes I do. But on an almost completelty unrelated note, hear me out: Medusa and her blind, lesbian, herpetologist girlfriend.

Which song makes you think of your OTP?

Anything by Queen, especially Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy

Which song makes you disassociate and daydream the fastest?

tbh I don't even need songs, I'm too good at that by myself

A Very Medoran Kaldoras

The cliffhanger will finally be answered! (although I wouldn’t put it past Lynette to put another one at the end, just to spite all of us who thought that maybe we would escape the purgatory of suspense.)

I sense more fic ideas when it is released. 

Also there had better be more Kailex.

[azymondias05]

Just wanted to take a break from thirsting over Arcane characters to tell everyone in the TMC fandom to go read this fic by my friend revelationinthelightofday (aka an amazing writer who doesn’t get nearly as many hits and kudos as she deserves). The gist of it is that it’s an Ancient Rome AU. Alex is a slave who fights as a gladiator in the colosseum. There’s angst. Tea (and blood) is spilled. Go read. Do it.

IF YOU’RE SCROLLING PAST THIS. HOW DARE U. READ

*cough* sorry. I’m done now. But seriously. Read. Please and thank you💞💞

When the Dust has Settled

Hey guys!

This is a fic for the Medoran Chronicles fans out there. If you haven’t read the series yet, I highly recommend that you do because it is amazing :) The fandom is quite low at the moment and there isn’t a lot of fics out there so if you could spread this for those who are fans that would be greatly appreciated :) You can find this fic on AO3 here

                                          When the Dust has Settled

Summary: As the dust begun to settle after the battle, Bear and Declan share a moment.

“Bear?”

Turning at his name, Bear felt almost sick with the relief that rolled through his stomach at the sight of Declan. In the chaos and celebration of Alex having finally defeated Aven and taken him away, Bear hadn’t had the chance to check in with the older boy despite having barely left his presence since the battle.

When Alex had collapsed from exhaustion into Kaiden’s arms, they had whisked her to the Medical Ward with Fletcher right on their heels. Bear had been beyond relieved to find his family and D.C alive when they reached the Medical Ward. It had been a quick reunion, of tight hugs and relieved tears, before his mother and grandmother pulled away to help the injured that were coming in. Bear’s older brother Jonny had taken their younger sister Evie away as she clutched and cried brokenly.

“Your family? Are they –“Declan trailed off, swallowing thickly.

“They’re okay,” Bear quickly assured the older boy, watching his thick shoulder’s muscles sag with relief. “Everyone survived.”

Declan muttered a quick pray before pulling Bear into a rough hug.

Bear went willingly, wrapping his arms around Declan and hugging him back just as tightly. He buried his face into Declan’s neck, a shuddering breath making it way out of him as he squeezed his eyes tightly shut. He shuddered and gripped Declan’s torn shirt as the older boy’s palm rubbed across his back in a soothing back and forth motion.

They pulled back from the hug but didn’t let go of one another. Declan’s hand rested on Bear’s shoulder, his thumb gently resting on Bear’s neck.

“Your grandfather,” Bear swallowed around the thick lump that had developed in his throat. But he couldn’t get the words out.

“It’s just me now,” Declan said quietly, grip tightening on Bear’s shoulder as his eyes darkened with emotion.

Bear gripped Declan’s other hand tightly in his. “No. It’s not just you. Your family is still here.” He forced Declan to look him in the eyes and Bear nearly stumbled with the emotion that was visible to see. “Kaiden, Alex, Jordan, D.C, me. We are still here.”

Declan let out a quiet breath before he pulled Bear back into another tight hug that nearly knocked the air from Bear’s lungs.

“I have you,” Declan murmured into Bear’s neck. He pulled back, keeping Bear in his personal space and cupping the younger boy’s neck with his palm. “Shit, B. When I couldn’t see you on the field.” He swallowed roughly. “I thought you had gone down.”

“Jordon was keeping us hidden,” Bear rasped out, hands trembling as he clutched as Declan’s arms.

“Are you injured?” Declan asked. “Has someone seen to you?”

Bear nodded. “My mum, she checked me over. Gave me something for the cuts and bruises. I’m okay. Are you? Did you get seen?”

“Fletcher looked at me,” Declan said.

Heat flooded to Bear’s cheeks as Declan hand moved from his neck and wipe at his cheek. “We need to shower and change clothes.”

Without waiting for an answer, Declan withdrew his hand from Bear’s face and stepped back.

Before Bear could mourn the loss of the older boys’ touch, Declan was gripping his elbow and leading him out of the med ward. The two were silent as they walked through the battered halls of the school and made their way to the dorm rooms.

Miraculously they had survived undamaged and they could hear the grief coming from open rooms as they passed. They went to Bear’s dorm room first. As they entered the room, they could hear the shower running. It was clear that Jordon was inside, and Bear was relieved to find his best friend had left D.C’s side long enough to take care of himself.

Bear grabbed some clean clothes before Declan led him from the room and towards the older boy’s dorm room.

Kaiden was just exiting the bathroom. He looked much cleaner, his hair still damp and the exhaustion settling deeper into his bones.

“Bear, Dec,” Kaiden nodded. “You both okay?”

“As well as we can be the moment,” Bear answered.

“Yeah,” Kaiden agreed. “I’m so glad you are both okay.” He stepped forward, pulling Declan into a hug before doing the same to Bear. When he pulled back, he stared at them both. “You were both amazing today and every other day. I know Alex would be telling you the same if she were awake.”

“Is she going to be okay?” Bear asked, trying to ignore the wobble in his voice.

“Fletcher said she just needs rest,” Kaiden said. “And that she will be out of it for a day most likely. You know, Alex though. She keeps her own schedule.”

This made them all chuckle.

“She’ll get there,” Kaiden said. “She’s so strong.”

Declan snorted. “That’s an understatement.” He clapped his best friend on the shoulder. “You going to stay with her while she rests?”

Kaiden nodded. “D.C is cleaning her up as much as she can right now. I’ll stay with her just in case she wakes up.”

“I’ll come find you if we need you,” Declan said. “Go take care of our Chosen One.”

Bear smirked. “I dare you to call her that when she wakes.”

“And have her castrate me with that sword?” Declan elbowed Bear gently. “As if.”

“Get some rest you two,” Kaiden smiled softly. “I’ll check in on you later.”

Kaiden left and Declan gently steered Bear towards the bathroom. “Go shower and I’ll see if I can find us some food.”

“Are you sure?” Bear asked. “It’s your room. You should shower first.”

Declan nudged Bear towards the bathroom door. “Shower. I’ll be here when you get out.” He squeezed Bear’s hand gently before turning and leaving through the door Kaiden had left through moments ago.

Bear didn’t need much encouragement to get in the shower. Once in the bathroom, the door closed behind him, he stripped out of his torn and bloody clothes and stepped under the heat of the spray. He took his time scrubbing his body, until the water ran clear. Sniffing the shampoo bottles, Bear chose the one that Declan often smelt off and gave his hair four rounds of shampoo before he felt almost normal.

When he stepped out, he reached for a clean towel. By the time he was dry, exhaustion had settled in and he struggled to pull his clean clothes on.

Declan was waiting for him, a plate pile high with food resting on the bed. He clapped Bear on the shoulder when the younger boy sat down and stood up. “Eat the rest. I hope you left some hot water for me.”

Bear snorted, too tired to come up with anything witty in response but instead helped himself to some food. It was a combination of snack foods from the Rec Room, so Bear helped himself to the cheese and crackers, smiling softly as he remembered Declan stealing a cracker and grape from his plate not long ago. He finished off the plate, moving it to one of the desks.

Bear eyes were drooping close when Declan finally exited the bathroom. He looked better and smiled softly at Bear, joining him on the bed.

“You look as exhausted as I feel,” Declan said.

Bear was unable to stop the yawn that took over his body. “Yeah. I should probably get back to my bed if I want to make it there awake.” He made to move but Declan’s hand wrapped around his wrist, making him pause.

“Stay,” Declan said quietly.

Bear swallowed, warmth filling him and a shy smile gracing his lips. He shifted until he was lying down, head cushioned on the pillow. Faster than Bear’s sluggish mind could comprehend, Declan’s lips were quirking in a smirk and Bear was shifted until his back was pressed against Declan’s chest and he was wrapped around in his strong arms.

Heat flooded Bear’s cheeks and he felt Declan’s laughter rumble through him.

“Is this okay?” Declan asked, his hot breath fanning across Bear’s ear making his shudder.

“Yeah,” Bear said, eyes drifting close. “This is good. Really good.”

“Good,” Declan repeated.

Bear fell asleep feeling safer than he had in a long time and knew that when he woke up, he would feel just a safe because he had Declan with him. They had survived and could take on anything as long as they had each other.

Down the TBR Hole // To Read Soon – Part 4/4

Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming.

The optimist in me right now is Dory, the realist who is impatient and likes to drop things before finishing them is Marlin.

This is the last post for my To Read Soon Shelf so that’s something…

But I still have 3 more posts for my To Read Eventually shelf!

And then I can do my Down The TBR Hole wrap up! I’ve never been so desperately excited to be able to do a post!

It does not help that as I’m writing this I am fucking tired as shit because I’m currently working more shifts than normal and my brain fog is in high gear the last few days! Thanks chronic illness!

Hopefully dumping a bunch of books will give me the energy I need to get through to the finish line!

9.│The Outsiders│S.E. Hinton│ I added this because…Story time! So this is a classic. I know. I don’t get along with classics. I watched the film in High School, though I don’t really remember much of it. The reason it’s on my TBR at all is because one night I was talking to my parents’ friend about books and he said he would read one of my faves (I spent ages trying to figure out which one might be the closest to his taste) if I read one of his. I chose the Six of Crows for him to read (he had it for nearly a year before I demanded it back I AM NOT BITTER!) He chose The Outsiders. Only he couldn’t fucking remember the name of it and it took me hours to figure out the name of what book he was referring to because I knew exactly which book he was talking about but do you think I could remember the name either??? Stay or Go? Go! He hasn’t read Six of Crows so I feel no duty to read a classic I’m not interested in.

The day of the Midnight screening for The Force Awakens, my best friend asked me if I want to go. I didn’t know anything at all about it! Neither did she.

Top Ten Tuesday

 Top Ten Tuesday // My Back List Books – I’m Publicly Shaming Myself

 Top Ten Tuesday // Audible and Overdrive Are My Lords & Saviors – My Audiobook TBR

 Top Ten Tuesday // Screen Adaptations I LOVED, Ones I NEED & And Ones I NEED NOW – Page to Screen

I am both tired and disappointed in myself.

I only managed to get rid of 22, while I kept 20 and just moved 13!

I wish I could say I cared that much about my failure, but alas, I’m so exhausted that I do not!

I’m just so glad my To Read Soon Shelf is over and there’s only one more shelf to go through!!! I can see the finish line! I’m almost there!

What books are on your current TBR? Any books here that I should hurry up and read? How do you motivate yourself to cross the finish line for things that have lost their appeal?

I was thinking today about how much I wanted to write a Medoran Chronicles fic, but I didn’t have any good ideas, and I thought it would be nice to do a community thing. I know there was a Kailex fic week back in July, but I wasn’t part of the fandom back then so I missed it, and I don’t want to wait another six months. So, I propose that, as a fandom, we think of some prompts, and then write them (depending on how many we can muster). It will mean we all get more fics to work on/read, and we can see how other people would write the same thing. 

If anyone has any good ideas, please send them as asks, reply to this, or reblog it. Ideally I would start it next week (depending on people’s opinions). I’ll probably write a fic and put this message in the notes so people who don’t look at Tumblr can see it.

Mandatory 7 day fic writing session thanks covid.

A win for the Six of Crows and the Medoran Chronicles fandoms.

Fic Time?

The desire to write fics vs the lack of ideas :/ 

I’ll probably just write more Medoran Chronicles Kailex fics
