Fall Update

Just a little note for the season. I won't be online much through the holidays, and wanted to let you know why.

This post should be a Goals Summary or even the belated Monthly Recap, but I’m gonna be real honest with you – I don’t have the energy for all of that right now. Fall is here, the weather is dark and a little dour. I’ve been off my ADHD meds for about a month and I’m exhausted. What energy I do have is getting divvied up between my home, family, work, and the book. That’s it. For those things to…

Honestly, I need to update this tumblr, there are so MANY changes I want to make since my interests are officially all over the place.

I think my main character moment was being in a class with ONLY boys for 4 years, and every year I was the one with the highest grades

rdr2 thought of the day, it took Arthur ages and I mean AGES to get good at workworking. why? as a young guy he seriously lacked patience. my guy definitely has some scars just by missing the stick with the knife.

this hallmark au synopsis is over 4k and counting

they haven't even kissed yet. joel hasn't even gone to etho's workworking workshop or given opinions on stains. they haven't even gamed super hard (after they discovered they are rivals in an online game). i know the end but i'm not even sure how we get there from The Big Misunderstanding. It might just be "someone realizes what Etho doesn't know and tells him and then everyone is happy".

I know you can put meta things and not-fic on ao3 but I feel like *I* am not allowed to. And it would require editing, I'm doing some but it would need more.

Addendum: Maybe the first bit of smut will be actual prose, lol. It'll fade to black when Etho kicks his bedroom door shut behind him after tossing Joel on the bed.

Chapter 29, Go Below, is up!

(I am having sooooooo much fun.)

Lestrade and Mycroft stepped through the Workworks tunnel entrance. A moment later, the liquid stonework rebuilt itself as a solid wall blocking the entry to his tiny posh office. Lestrade moved to follow Adler and stumbled in the darkness. 

Mycroft caught his arm, steadying him. “Adler, light, if you please. Not all company present can change their eyesight to see in the dark.”

The Shapeshifter grumbled, but the tunnel suddenly pulsed with blue light that emanated from Adler’s very skin as they strode away down the tunnel. 

“How are they… glowing ?” Lestrade whispered, following at a cautious distance as if Adler’s light might be caustic.

“Bioluminescence,” Mycroft replied quietly. “They can adapt to any environmental need – extreme heat, extreme cold, breathing air or water.”

“That’s… bloody remarkable.”

“Mm, indeed. And very useful as a spy.”

Lestrade ran his fingertips along the tunnel walls as they walked. It was smooth and rounded, sloping down steadily as if it had been left behind by some enormous worm tunneling to the middle of the earth. “So what’s this clever plan, Mycroft?” He tried to keep his voice light, though he was vibrating with nerves.
