[proxis-shattered-expectations]

So I have been reading an amazing comic called "Winged Warriors" by @kabukiaku , and was inspired a great deal. It's a great mix of birds like Owls, falcons, eagles, and hawks in the imperial Chinese era and it is an amazing read so far!! The designs of the characters in the story are epic, and the storyline is engaging and keeps you invested in each character and I look forward to future chapters! And so I couldn't help but make a fan character of my own for it!

Based off the Brahminy Kite, here is Suyin! She is a pirate by blood, specializing in dual hook swords and part of her Father's crew. Their piracy is well known across the region, as they have a tendency to attack military ships and stealing the supplies, weaponry, and goods. Hope ya like and please if you have not, give @kabukiaku 's "Winged Warriors" story a read. You will not be disappointed!

Art and Character are mine

Inspired by @kabukiaku 's Winged Warriors

Winged Warriors: A Self-sufficient Mother''s Decision to Forge a Different Path 🦸‍♀️ 🛠️ 🐓 https://newsinfitness.com/winged-warriors-a-self-sufficient-mothers-decision-to-forge-a-different-path/

[goldenamaranthe-blog]

Hello! I'm really enjoying your big cats au saga, it's cute and funny! (also I love cats, big and small, so xD)

If you'd like, I had an idea: panther!Blake being particularly affectionate, and maybe even catch and gift a fish to gift Yang for her birthday! Basically, panther!Blake being aware of it and wanting to celebrate it her own way!

Hey, @set-wingedwarrior!

Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the Big Cat AU. It's definitely evolved from what I initially had planned for it, but it's fun! And I'm always up for ideas! There's a good chunk of times where I will have nothing in the chamber until I get an ask and suddenly get flooded. So, let's go!

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

Panther!Blake: (looks at the trajectory of the moon and the sun and how they align in the sky. Gets up and jumps into the pool)

Jaune: (over radio) Happy Birthday, Yang!

Ren: (over radio) Happy Birthday, Yang!

Neptune: (over radio) Happy Birthday, Yang!

Ruby: (over radio) Happy Birthday, sis!

Yang: (over radio) Thanks, everyone! You're all awesome! (steps into the rainforest enclosure) Blake! Blaaaaake! Pspspspspsps! Here, girl!

Panther!Blake: (erupts out of the water with the largest fish in the pool in her jaws)

Yang: Whoa! I was wondering when you were finally going to get him! You've been eyeing that one for months!

Panther!Blake: (trots up to Yang, pushes her over so she's sitting on a nest of leaves she made, and drops the fish in Yang's lap)

Yang: ....Is this for me?

Panther!Blake: (chuffs and grumbles happily while rubbing up and around Yang, making sure to lick her cheek and roll over for belly rubs)

Yang: And belly rubs?! What's the occasio- (eyes widen) Did you know it was my birthday?

Panther!Blake: (rolls into Yang and props chin on her thigh with a grumble)

Yang: Awwwww! (hugs P!B around the neck) Thanks, Blake! I love it! But, uh... (stares at the fish still twitching lifelessly in her lap) how about we share this?

Opinion on Emerald x Ilia? (I don't remember the name, sorry😅)

I don't remember either lol

It's cute! I'm not really one to ship characters that haven't met just bc I can't get a feel for their chemistry and dynamic, but I fully support it. I like the idea of disaster lesbian Ilia short circuiting when she sees Emerald for the first time lmao

[growing-magic]

I participated in the Bumbleby Big Bang this year, and, against all odds, I have the curse honour of sharing first! This is my piece to go alongside @set-wingedwarrior's wonderful fic, which you can read here.

This was a really fun event and I can't wait to see what everyone else creates. <3

These are definitely positive ones that I would recommend.

Type RWDE into a blog's search bar if you're not sure, block em if they're negative.

Its tedious, filtering your feed, but the resulting decrease in negativity is worth it.

[citadelofmythoughts]

Maybe I'm the weird one, but in recent thoughts to all of the shipping drama, I dont think I've ever gotten to the point with shipping or a show in general to get upset with the romance that happens unless it's genuinely forced into the story (looking at you most het ships)

Like, don't get me wrong, bmblby is one of the ships I dont really like as far as rwby goes, but like, even I could see where everything was going with the build up. And it never did impede with the story with the way everything was built up for it as well. So when people feel the need to hate the story because a single ship or drop the show completely because because their ship isn't canon boggles my mind.

But like I said, maybe I'm just the weird one on that one. Still great to see a Sapphic slow burn romance happen through rwby though. Especially with main cast

That's the thing and I appreciate you saying it. You can *not* like a ship but still admit that it's being done well and works in the context of the show. You simply don't care for it and don't see the need to rage about it or resort to hyperbole.

For myself, the potential of their romance is what drew me in. I came into the fandom at the end of V6 after @set-wingedwarrior posted so much about the Bees. But before I committed, I went and watched the show. I wanted to make sure this wasn't going to be a rug-pull.

And to my surprise, everything lined up. This wasn't something that came out of nowhere. This was deliberate, planned and something the cast and crew cared about.

Updated, enjoy (I hope).

The Baby Plot

Chapter 4: Revelations

On AO3 and on FFN.

Rated M, although the sex in this chapter is fade to black.

Summary: Yang’s been feeling under the weather, and Blake persuades her to get a checkup. The cause of her symptoms comes as a shock, with lifelong consequences when they decide to keep moving forward.

Chapter summary: Another chat with Raven, and sharing the news with friends.

This fic earns no AO3 archive warnings to my knowledge, but to be safe there's a trigger warning included at the start of chapter 1, and at the start of this chapter, just in case. There is some darkness to this story, but I think it is balanced by the fluff.

I'm not sure if @bumblebyweek-blog is still reblogging, so I'm tagging just in case they still are, but I also wanted to thank the mods @foxaoxarts and @set-wingedwarrior for organising Bumbleby Week, and for reblogging all the fics and art. It's much appreciated, and all the reblogs are going to make it so much easier to catch up, although it'll take me a while, especially with this fic still to finish.

hi ur the only rg shipper I follow so I wanted to give you heads up to block the person mentioned ahead of time bc they might find ur page!!!!

https://www.tumblr.com/set-wingedwarrior/721490284741033984/they-texted-me-as-well-the-other-day-just-block?source=share

Hi there, thank you for the heads up! They sent me a dm the other day that I didn't get to answering fast enough and it seems they ended up blocking me for it??? lmaooo they've been going around hitting up lots of accounts (wr, nnd, and rg shippers alike) and seem to resort to name calling, suibating, and homophobia to any that don't accept their offer. The url is "farmboyoscar" to anyone that doesn't wanna check the link. Please be careful y'all. 😬

[softlighter]

Twenty questions for fic writers!

thanks for the tag @wyrd-syster

1. How many works do you have on AO3? I just posted my 100th (!!!) work this morning! I might be taking some off soon, as they're more for my dnd group than for anything else, but yes, 100!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count? 643,987 since 2016!

3. What fandoms do you write for? I primarily write for RWBY and Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, but I also do write fanfic of my dnd characters. Because why not!

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

fucking in love, a collaboration with @set-wingedwarrior, RWBY, Bumbleby, "but they were both porn stars" au! WIP.

something to carry, RWBY, Bumbleby, my beloved soulmate au! finished.

From the Heart, RWBY, Bumbleby, my 2020 @bumblebybigbang fic and with chapter headers and comic by the lovely @yourfriendlele! a bakery au, finished.

The Roommate, RWBY, Bumbelby, a "oh my god Blake's a kitten and Yang adopts her" one shot, finished.

doubt the stars, RWBY, Bumbleby, a "Blake is a witch and there's Magic" au. WIP, but I actually have been tinkering on it in the background recently.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I used to, but, after letting too many lovely and generous comments pile up and feeling as though I need to get through the backlog before responding to any new ones, I've since stopped. Also, I'm in grad school and writing a lot, so taking the time to thoughtfully respond as I want to isn't always realistic, time-wise. I'm still sorting out my approach going forward, but I sincerely appreciate everyone who takes the time to leave me such kind words.

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? I don't really write pure angst, but my series Liberation has a lot of angst interspersed and does have an angsty ending for the first fic. The series is incomplete, but both fics are completed. I usually try to write angst with hope!

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? I'm not sure how to measure happiest, but I do love the ending for something to carry, it's definitely something that brought me a lot of joy to write.

8. Do you get hate on fics? I've started to moderate my comments and turned off guest comments to get ahead of the curve, especially as my works as of late have been exploring dynamics that do attract a lot of hate. I've only ever received seemingly well-intentioned comments that have come across poorly to me, but I can't remember a distinct hateful message.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Heh. So much. Logistically, I write a lot of BDSM and dominance/submission dynamics, and I mostly write monogamous sapphic or hetero couples, although I do write other pairings and dynamics as well. I find that I write smut as a kind of psychological catharsis, and there's an examination of the dynamics at play there, but not all the time. All the time, it is horny.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? I do not! The closest I've come to a crossover is doing AUs, but I like my ducks in a row and my media separated.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not to my awareness, thank goodness!

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Not that I'm aware of!

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before? Yes! @set-wingedwarrior and I work on Fucking in Love together, and Wings is lovely.

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship? Gosh, don't make me choose! I think something that will always make me smile is Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase, but part of that is sentimentality. I think Yang and Blake will always have a special place in my heart as getting me writing not only fanfiction again but for getting me writing again, not to mention helping me find my girlfriend of three years and for getting me to write sapphic love.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will? Don't perceive me, but I doubt the Liberation series' fic three will ever be written any time soon. I have other fics I'd rather work on. Everything else, I have intent to finish, but I've kind of let myself off the hook for Liberation.

16. What are your writing strengths? I have writing strengths? In all seriousness, I've been told I write grief very well, and I think that writing the intensity of emotion along with the spectrum of feelings from experiences is a strength of mine. I describe feelings well and can evoke emotions, and honestly, that's a point of pride for me.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Plot. I hate plot, because I want to write stories about feelings, but feelings require things that have happened and I'm just not as invested in plot as a literary device as I am anything else. I can get lost in the sauce of writing feelings and then forget to make anything happen, whoops? Also, I think that making voices distinct and making sure my sentence structure isn't (unconsciously) repetitive, and trying to provide variation is something I actively work at.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? I do it sometimes, like in in the mouth of the wolf (good luck) because the reader doesn't need to understand Italian to know what's going on. I try to use it sparingly, both because my grasp of languages outside of English is barely passable at best and because I don't want to deal with translation when I am only fluent in one language.

19. First fandom you wrote for? First published fic was a Merlin fic! I wrote some Merlin x Morgana back in the fanfiction dot net days.

20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written? Until recently, I would've said something to carry, but I'm working on something right now that I think will overtake that. stc was a labor of love, literally and figuratively, but what I'm writing now is an exploration of themes that I've wanted to explore for years. When it's published, I'll update this post, but for now, a little suspense never hurt. ;)

Hello! I hope you're doing well!

I was wondering, can I ask for some more Tiger!Yang and Cheetah!Ruby sisters stuff? Maybe when C!Ruby is still a cub and T!Yang is taking care of her?

They're best sisters, even in big cat form, and I love them!

Hey, @set-wingedwarrior!

I'm doing well. Just busy with work, teaching, and a bunch of things starting up again. It's made getting online longer than a few minutes difficult, but everything is going well!

I hope things are going well for you! You can always leave an ask. It just might take a minute or two for me to answer.

*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*

JuvenileTiger!Yang: (holding CC!Ruby in her mouth as she carries her through the zoo) Dish ish mine.

CheetahCub!Ruby: Yang, I can walk on my own.

JuvenileTiger!Yang: Ish a dong balk. You'll get tird.

CheetahCub!Ruby: I will not!

JuvenileTiger!Yang: Otay, if you shay sho. (puts CC!R down) Let's go, Rubes. We still gotta get to the amphitheater.

-15 minutes of walking later-

CheetahCub!Ruby: (slowly trudging along behind JT!Y)

JuvenileTiger!Yang: (trotting slowly onward)

CheetahCub!Ruby: ........Yaaaang?

JuvenileTiger!Yang: Yeah, Ruby?

CheetahCub!Ruby: ........I'm tired.....
