MARIANG MAKILING | Introduction
Genre: Supernatural Synopsis:
Maeri Keith and her friends had an annual tradition—an overnight stay at a beach, island hopping on long academic breaks, or walk miles and miles to reach the highest point they could endure inland during a weekend. For this year, they all agreed to visit the Municipality of Maquiling and see its mystical falls for themselves—a more or less three-hour hike after entering the fall’s district.
To escape the scorching heat, the group decided to take a shortcut through another desired path, unknowingly entering a restricted area. Somehow failing to complete the three-hour trip by sun down, they found themselves beaten to camp in a glade—Maeri Keith distressed by the foreboding presence of the surrounding hills and forestry; the subtle, eerie whispers in the wind; occasional apparitions; and the sudden presence of a man named, Carlos.
Inspired by the Legend of Mariang Makiling.
EXCERPTS | Pinterest
Tumblr media
The Legend of Mariang Makiling tells us of a goddess who had a heart for the poor and vulnerable. She was beautiful and kind; and had shared the abundance of her mountain but mortals took advantage of her. Betrayed, she retreated deep into the mountain never to be seen again.
In other versions, Maria would punish the people for their ungratefulness. She would cause heavy rainfall and whip ferocious wild carabaos in the forest to cause lightning; or a diwata haunting the forest of the mountain. People may pick fruits from the trees, but they must not take them home, lest she would lead them astray and play tricks on them. If they return what they had taken, only then will Maria relent and set them free.
Tumblr media
Notes: Thank you for reading! I hope you're doing well today. (It's been a while. :D)
I am not sharing anything new, this is a mere reintroduction of my little novella, Mariang Makiling. You may have seen this before or read some of the excerpts. My main goal for the year is to finish the first draft, so wish me luck. (Please.)
Taglist: Kindly ask or reply to be added/removed.

synopsis:
Raaf killed the King in his own court, slaughtering him like a sacrificial lamb at a ritual. The blood and gore of the King stains his hands as the Prince finds him, binding them together in fate. But now the King torments Raaf, his ghost follows him everywhere, whispering to him about magic and blood and bones and the mind itself.
Haunted, unsure, and lost, Raaf teams up with the Prince and the Priestess, both of whom do not share the same motivations, but who provide safety and a kind of protection in the labyrinth of Terdam. With their own agendas, the Prince and the Priestess both do not anticipate the divine chaos they will find themselves in alongside Raaf: Saints gone astray, people turning against one another, and a familiar voice whispering betrayal and sin into the minds of others.
Besides, hunger is a thing that is difficult to satisfy — to devour, is to become a god.
starring:
A killer, a usurper, a dead king, a divine priestess, and golden saints who bruise too easily.

writeblr intro
hey i'm chance! i've done a writeblr intro recently but i didn't like it, so this is take 2. here's the old one.
Tumblr media
─── about me -⋆⋅☆
name : chance
pronouns : they/he
likes : cyberpunk, romance, anime, kpop, music, history, design
age : 20
i tend to swear both on here and in my writing, so if you're sensitive to that, i don't think my blog or work is for you. i also use the word 'queer' a lot since i self-identify as such, when i do choose to self-identify.
i'm interested in so much, which would be impossible to fully state. there are so many new things out there and i love learning about them all!! this blog is mainly for writing but i'm not strict on that.
i also am pretty sure i'm neurodivergent (no diagnosis or anything yet) and tend to delve into hyper-fixations for weeks at a time. if i haven't posted for a while, it's probably because of one of my other hyper-fixations or school.
i'm going to college for my bachelor's in graphic design, which might make my responses during the school year delayed.
i'm always open to ask or tag games!! it might take me a few to respond but i'll respond.
Tumblr media
─── writing -⋆⋅☆
you'll find a lot of diverse characters, the found/chosen family trope, romance or rom-com, angst, and references to actual history or historical events within my work. sometimes i throw in a little art fact since i'm an art student. in nearly every one of my works you can find a prominent lgbtq+ character, too.
i write for original works and fanfiction alike. i often alternate what project i'm writing on and tend to leave wips unfinished. there's no one specific fandom that i'm in since i tend to dabble in everything.
i enjoy reading all sorts of stories, but some of the tropes and genres that have a special place in my heart include:
[ genres : romance . action . sci-fi . dystopian . heists . cyberpunk . horror . comedy . mystery ] [ tropes : friends to lovers , enemies to lovers , fake/pretend relationship , college au , coffee shop au , domestic , fluff , angst ]
Tumblr media
─── ⋆ looking for ⋆⋅☆

you still would've been mine | fanfiction | #wip: yswbm
─── ⋆ status : outlining, research, & writing draft 1
Steven "Steve" Rogers wakes up in the 21st century after crashing into the ice in 1942, leaving behind his life as the mascot of the USA along with his childhood in Brooklyn NYC.

WRITEBLR REINTRO – ANN LILLY JOSE
hello there!
following through with my tradition of posting a new writeblr intro every single year, here we go – a brand new reintro where i talk a little bit about myself and my current writing projects. so, here we go, onto all that good stuff!
about me
i'm ann, a twenty-year-old writer from kerala, currently based in kochi
i live with my husband, who is a musician, and lead a very creative life of sorts
i'm an infp, enneagram type 2
i write literary fiction and poetry
i'm a discovery writer and have a thing for sad stories with traumatised characters
i work as a content writer and social media manager for a wedding company
you can find all my published work on my linktree
my aesthetics: wilted flowers, fallen leaves, silhouettes, shadows, gentle friendships, indie music, unplanned trips, birds, fireflies, annotated books, old libraries and buildings, post-colonial literature, voids, romance
my wips
i recently finished a litfic novel called dairy whiskey and am editing it right now, hoping to get it ready for agent submissions in a month or two. i put my heart and soul and blood and bones into it, so if you’d like to dive into the story and read a few excerpts, you can check out the intro here and every other excerpt here!
Tumblr media
rock salt is my main wip since finishing dairy whiskey. it is the story of identical twins rain and norah as they move out for college and navigate their lives on their own, which ends up in them growing apart. if you like complicated sibling relationships and the struggles of growing up, you’ll love this book!
i so badly want to start writing it, but i don’t think i’ll be able to until dairy whiskey is in a more secure position. so, there probably won’t be any updates for a few months, but you can read the wip intro here.
Tumblr media
this is a gay vignette novel that i started writing back in 2021 as a source of personal joy. this is the story of how a singer-songwriter desperate for normalcy meets a boy with a heart heavy with guilt. this is the story of how they fall in love and it’s honestly quite wholesome <3
i haven’t worked on this book in so long and i’ve been trying to sneak some words in, but it feels like the book needs a fresh start. i don’t know, i just might start it all over again. but until then, here’s an outdated wip intro.
Tumblr media
green room is a literary/experimental memoir documenting my teenage years as a writer. it is a deep dive into craft and how it affects life, particularly how it moulds you as a person. i haven’t started drafting this yet, but here’s a wip intro for now.
so, that’s about it!
if you’d like to be pinged when i drop a new publication or a wip update, just send me an ask to be added to my general taglist and i’ll tag you in those posts.
thank you so much for reading. i hope writing has been going well for you. if not, here’s some strength, some kindness, and some caffeine to keep going!
– love, ann.

The Resurrectioners
You only live twice.
(TW: Mentions of s*icide)
After the deaths of her two sisters in a car crash, twenty-seven-year-old Samara Dombroski decides that her life is no longer worth living and makes a successful attempt at her own life. Only there's one problem:
She doesn’t stay dead for very long.
An indeterminate amount of time later, Samara wakes up in a strange, vast estate plagued by visions of the past that she can’t control. She learns that this place is run by a man known only as The Resurrectionist, a necromancer armed with a group of assassins possessing strange abilities called Resurrectioners, an eclectic group of individuals who all share her story: people who found death by their own hand or by some other tragic means.
Now a resurrectioner herself, Samara must repay the debt of her second chance at life to The Resurrectionist by disposing of cadavers for him: violent, ghoulish beings that result from misused necromancy who feast on flesh and bone. Once she has killed enough to satisfy The Resurrectionist, she will be released from the estate she is trapped in and free to live the rest of her life.
Genre: dark fantasy, thriller
Tumblr media
Give No Quarter: The Marauder's Mutiny
No Pain— No Gain—No Quarter
After a run-in with the lawmen that leaves pirate captain Adam Bonny and his colleagues captured with their map stolen, Adam will do just about anything to get his hands back on that precious parchment and break his friends out of their chains. In a brash effort to escape, Adam joins forces with the mysterious Circe in return for her freedom as well. Circe, though distrusting of Adam, is left with no other choice but to ally herself with the deceptive rogue because she too is running out of time to free herself from the shackles of her captor.
But their problems don't just end in their escape. A mutiny among Adam's faction comes to light that could cost many men their lives, and Circe's chance for revenge behind those responsible for her imprisonment is beginning to slip through her fingers. Hellbent on revenge at any cost, both Adam and Circe throw themselves overboard into each other's worlds, unsure of whether they will sink or swim.
Genre: adventure Fiction, fantasy
Tumblr media
Scorched Earth
Set in the fictional kingdom of Horistram, a realm long divided between the Ignaria 'fire folk' of the north and the Terrenish ‘mud men’ of the east, a power struggle begins as rebellions brew all across the continent of Mar.
It’s been almost two decades since The Long Burning has ended and King Elaric I, better known as The Scorched King, has brought the two realms into a semblance of peace for the first time in nine hundred years: although peace for the Terrenish does not mean peace for the Ignaria, who still face active discrimination and violence at the hands of their upperclassman. Due to most of the royal line perishing during The Violet Night, the king has summoned noblemen from across the world to compete for the hand of his eldest daughter.
Cinere de Vapos, ward of the Thothe household, is instructed by her adopted father to bring her two charges to the castle to complete. But Cinere has more than marriage on her mind as she is sucked into the world of politics and court dealings. Cinere, who is half Igniarian, has lived her life being shunned by both groups and in fear that she will be discovered as a firestarter and forced to work in the underground. On top of her fear of being snuffed out,  it seems the more time she spends in the city of Horistram, the more sinister secrets she uncovers and years to solve.
But tension is on the rise in the castle as rebels begin to reform after their defeat, and their eyes are set on the castle once again and their intentions clear: repaying the king for the murder of their leader.
Genre: Fantasy Fiction

This is going to be my year!
Writeblr Re-Re-Introduction Updated
It's time for an update. :)
I’m Melon!
27 // she/they // gray ace
I love tea, music, sarcasm, and revolution. And writing I guess…
My alter ego is Latina living in the borderlands (she speaks Spanish and is a beeatch).
I have a film degree I have yet to use, but I’m a film nerd anyway. I also studied literature. (I’m a film/lit nerd)
I post writing tips, neat stuff, and of course stuff about my wips
I write: sci-fi // romance // period pieces // contemporary/urban fantasy // fanfiction // screenplays
My WIPs are:
Newcast Chronicles or The Queen’s Company: A steampunk adventure where the genius inventor Nathaniel Tate teams up with a band of outlaws that call themselves The Queen’s Company when his mentor is brutally murdered. Nathaniel helps the Queen’s Co. on their quest for revenge when he finds they all have a common enemy, a secret government faction, the very same that had his mentor killed. Found family, revenge, and dangerous heists and some time travel, just for fun.
Cursed Pennyroyal and The Wizard Asturia: The story of a cursed spellbreaker and a thief magician whose emotions have been stolen. They couldn't be more different and would never be friends but thanks to an evil spirit they must work together to dissolve a deadly curse that threatens the kingdom's annual masquerade and therefore the genral peace. And if things aren't complicated enough, they fall in love... with each other's alter egos. A world with neat spirits, double identity shenanigans, enemies to lovers, and a masquerade.
Wollstonecraft: (on hiatus) A story of love, family, secrets and werewolves. Emi moves back to her small town in NM, after nearly a decade of being away and she meets Kieran Wollstonecraft, who you guessed it, is a werewolf. After what seems like a one-night stand, she gets mixed up in his family drama which also kind of turns out to be her family drama. It’s a mess, but what are else are you gonna do if you’ve found your true mate?
I also have some Arcana fanfics if you're so inclined, but they are on hiatus: Notes on the Wall and You Knew the Name of the Wolf (Muriel x fem!reader)
You can also find me on wattpad and on Ao3 and again on tumblr @melonreblogsstories a blog dedicated to reblogging other people’s stories, wips, and writeblrs!
I’m looking for more writer friends who just want to talk about their own WIPS. If you’re a writeblr I’d love to check out your blog.
Melon is always super down to be tagged even if she takes a while to respond and her inbox is always open! :)

✨Faye's Writeblr Reintroduction✨
Hello to all my fellow writing nerds, new and old! Thank you for checking out my updated writeblr reintroduction post. I've had this blog for nearly five years and am long overdue for a post explaining who I am, what I create, and why I write. I'm hoping to interact with more writers on here so we can all make the writeblr community a more welcoming place by supporting each other's creative journeys. If you're an active writing blog, I'd really appreciate it if you could like or reblog this so I can follow you and we can screech into the void together and gush about all our favorite WIPS and characters! ♡
A Little About Me
My name is Faye, a sassy bisexual woman living out her best writer life. I’m a lover, a dreamer, and of course, a creative writer enthusiast. I love storytelling in all of its mediums, so you can usually find me reading, writing, worldbuilding, character building, or doing an unnecessary amount of research for my works (ADHD tunnel vision).
Why Do I Write?
I write for many reasons, the biggest one being for myself. I love weaving stories with nothing but words because it's fun, challenging, and personally meaningful. There's nothing quite like the feeling of sitting at my desk and giggling away like a madwoman as I type out some intense scene. That feeling is only second to the absolute joy I get when people tell me they've connected with my stories. <3
How Do I Get Inspired?
I'm inspired by many different kinds of storytelling types: music, art, mythology, literature, video games, you name it. My writing comes from an intimate place and is motivated by my dreams, passions, and overall life experiences. I want my stories to mean something, and in turn, I want to share that 'something' with others in hope of continuing the positive cycle of human to human inspiration that started my journey in the first place. 🥺 Ultimately, for me, writing is about fulfillment, personal expression, and human connectivity.
Faye's Favorite Genre(s)
It's difficult to exactly pin down what my favorite genre is (because I genuinely love so many of them) but if I had to narrow it down to two genres, it would definitely be fantasy and romance. I love fantasy and its many subgenres (high fantasy, modern fantasy, science fantasy), as well as romance and its various subgenres (dark romance, paranormal romance, fantasy romance). As a bisexual writer, every story I write has LGBT+ characters, relationships and themes. Whether I'm writing gay or hetero romances, I love playing with the complicated dynamics resulting from human relationships.
My Absolute Favorite Tropes, Themes, and Content
exploring human relationships: platonic, familial, and romantic
enemies to lovers, rivals to lovers, friends to lovers, strangers to lovers, lovers to enemies, friends to enemies, enemies to friends
sensuality, intimacy, slow burn, dark romance, spicy content
soulmates, souls bonds, magical ties, and mental links usually tied to the villain (I love dramatic enemies to lovers, so sue me)
angsty, whumpy, dark fiction exploring morally gray characters and the true duality of man & human nature (dark vs. light)
hurt/comfort stories that rip out your heart, chew it up like old jerky, then spit it back into the gaping wound in your chest cavity (always with HEAPS & HEAPS of satisfying comfort after) ♡♡♡
identity, self-discovery, personal journeys, and character growth
experiencing, overcoming, and healing from messed up trauma
defying fate and choosing your own path despite destiny's enigmatic design for the course of your life
Finally, I need my characters to find genuine happiness at the end of the story. Very, very few stories I write have sad, unsatisfying endings (because I am a TOTAL sap and need them to find peace)
Thank you so much for reading, and if any of the above sounds appealing to you, I'd really appreciate so much if you reblog or give me a follow so we can chat. Happy writing! 💕💕💕

Thank you @anincompletelist @liminalmemories21 @clottedcreamfudge @cha-melodius & @lemonlyman-dotcom for the tags♥️
Most of my words are either a secret (AWY event) or already posted (Ficlet Friday) and I’m swiftly running out of unshared words from my other WIPs BUT:
FirstPrince Reporter AU
He feels like he’s stuck in limbo. Not as young as he once was, but not old, either. Not lonely, but definitely alone. He’s simply floating through life, waiting for something big to happen.
He doesn’t really think it’s going to happen tonight, not at this club. The music is loud and the drinks are cheap but Grant, with stubble and green eyes, is cute and clearly into him. It’s not a life changing encounter, but it could be fun.
“You know my flat isn’t far from here,” Grant says as he leans in, his hand falling to Alex’s hip.
It would be nice but before Alex can accept the invitation, he glances over Grant’s shoulder and catches a flash of brown hair and a familiar face.
Maybe it’s the fact that he’s only one and a half drinks in while everyone else is at least four, or the low lighting, or that nobody here looks like they give a flying fuck about the monarchy but Princess Beatrice floats through the crowd without turning a head.
Since Alex has been covering the royals, he’s made a game of spotting their protection details. Some of them are obvious—dark suits and glasses, a flash of a handgun on one hip and a radio on the other. Sometimes they like to blend in, especially in large crowds, winding their way through the masses to stop a threat before it starts. But jeans and jumpers don’t hide the straight line of their shoulders or the way their heads are always on a swivel. Alex can spot them from a mile away.
Tonight he doesn’t see anyone.
There’s no one to stop her from plucking a drink out of a stranger's hand and downing it all in one go or for some random guy to grab her around the waist and pull her against him.
It’s concerning, given that she’s supposed to be at a wellness retreat for the next three weeks even though everyone knows that’s code for rehab.
“Fuck,” Alex says and Grant nods.
“Yes, that’s the plan.”
WolfNichols Grief Fic
Wolf’s never met Josh’s parents—at least not formally.
He’s answered Josh’s phone when they’ve called; when Josh was up to his elbows in soapy dishwater or just stepped into the shower, or stepped out to get the mail. Josh had told him to answer—that if it went to voicemail he’d just have to call them back and that’s more work than he wanted to put in.
He’s had polite conversations, mostly with his mother. They’ve talked about the weather and the hospital—everything vague and impersonal. Wolf knows they know who he is and what he is to Josh. Josh has never made an excuse for him or took a call to another room. At some point, Josh must have told them that they were living together because the next Christmas card came addressed to both of them. Wolf had thought it was nice while Josh tossed it onto the counter with a grunt before dumping the junk mail into the trash.
That’s really the extent of it. Michael and Deborah Nichols, now just Deborah Nichols, who lives in Stonington, Connecticut, and gave birth to a son nearly fifty years ago who, inexplicably, has decided to love Wolf and who Wolf loves as easy as breathing in return.
It’s a lot to know, but it’s also nothing to know. For as open Josh is to talking about his feelings, his parents seem to be a major sticking point. Josh has had a three-sixty view of Wolf’s family drama for years. He has listened to Wolf rant and cry and comforted him when Wolf felt like he didn’t deserve it. He’s stood by him through his father’s sudden reintroduction into his life and during his slow and painful exit. Wolf has always wanted to ask what the deal is. He’s always wanted to be on the same page but he’s never wanted to push.
Now it feels like life is pushing back as they make their way through stop and go traffic on I-95, just outside of Milford.

Do you also have the feeling a lot of great people stopped posting and especially writing? Or have they all blocked me? The tags are full but mostly with newer fans who don't seem to have actually watched the show (no offense, although..) and the writers circle seems tiny
well, dear anon, i will be very real with you, it mostly comes down to season 7 and specifically Tommy's reintroduction, the whole bucktommy of it all, or even more specifically the infighting it started.
911 was never really the 911 fandom; it was the buddie fandom with a few blurps of other (canon) ships sprinkled in there, only to get lost due to lack of interest/bad behaviour. (believe me, people were really shitty before all this too)
but now we have two main ships.
which would be okay if people could understand the difference between reality and fiction and could just pay attention to the stuff they like and not get violent and for whatever reason bigoted towards real fans over disliking a character or ship.
i talked endlessly about how all the criticism of Tommy's character basically comes down to "i don't vibe with it, so no one else should either" so i won't go into that, but unfortunately what you saw and still see on the dash is only half of the story.
lots of people ended up unfollowing and blocking people they used to talk to on the daily over this fictional ship, which... you know, if that's all it took i wouldn't necessarily call those "friendships", but it definitely changed how people interact with fan creations.
doing wip games was always about two things; to exchange exposure and to motivate each other and ourselves to write.
those pre-existing tag-chains are mostly broken now and i know that a lot of writers don't want to expose themselves to "the other side" by sharing wips and get demotivated by people being rude, so they keep writing without sharing snippets.
and some people lost the motivation/inspiration to write for the fandom altogether.
it sucks and yeah, people who didn't watch the show aside from scenes of their faves should not be monopolising the tags — as far as i'm concerned they aren't part of the fandom at all. (if you can't even be bothered to watch the source material, why are you even here, genuinely.)
anyway, this got long, but the point is that you're right in your observation and it doesn't just go for writing.
interaction on edits and gifsets and the like have drastically fallen, because so many people have blocked each other, every post has to go through a bazillion blind spots to get to at least 3 more people's dash; because one person will reblog it and then they will be blocked by 5 others who would love to see your content but the people they still follow don't follow anyone that'd reblog your stuff and so on.
TLDR: this fandom is fucked and it's sad, but it is what it is i guess.

Like Mother Like Daughter
Tumblr media
Just a little reintroduction to my encanto ocs; Bina and Vineeta
Vineeta is a single mother who’s raising her daughter Bina, along side the Kuravilla family that had taken them in.
Bina ended up inheriting a gift from their family despite not being blood related, so Vineeta has been learning how to raise a magical kid with the help of the Kuravillas and the Madrigals
Tumblr media
This is also a wip but i wanted Bina’s ability to revolve around gravity; mainly in the sense of making things lighter. She’s got a bubbly light hearted personality and that reflects in her abilities

Some of my favourite current YR wips
Because wips deserve lots of love🫶 please add any additions you have!!
I see you in my future | 15/? | by littlefandom
Love, apparently, comes at the most unexpected moments and in the most random places. Wille agrees with that. He did not expect to meet the love of his life online, but the moment his eyes landed on Simon through the screen, it was like he knew that it was going to be something special, something extraordinary...
What he did not know then, was the distance between them, the differences, the troubles they were going to face in order to be together in the way they wanted to.
But another thing that he does know, is that Simon is worth it and that they are in this together, both of them willing to put themselves through all of the obstacles if it means they get their happy ending.
The question is: will they get it?
Their relationship is super sweet here and I love the way they handle conflict. It’s so well done.
To be where you are | 5/? | by RBlytheo8
“It will get easier, Wille, once you find your Guide. They’ll be able to help you and support you like mamma and I can’t.”
“Oh, haven’t you heard? I don’t have a perfect match. I won’t have a Guide.”
(Or, a Sentinel and Guide story for Simon and Wille.)
Super interesting concept and lovely to see their dynamic.
Bittersweet ecstasy (I pick my poison and it’s you) | 2/3 | by wthbaby
Pure blooded wolves were said to descend from the moon goddess herself, being able to shift to their wolf forms, their genes stronger than the ones of the common wolf. They were the prime species. If a wolf were to be born pure blooded, no matter alpha, beta or omega, they were automatically in line of succession.
Wilhelm presented as an Alpha, in a long line of pure-bloods, at eighteen moons of age. He had a role to fulfill as the future Head Alpha of the northern pack.
And Simon, a male omega, a nobody, had fallen head over heels for the young alpha.
The only problem? Wilhem was set to be mated to another omega.
This feels like a fantasy setting which I love! It’s a lot about them as actual wolves , which is different (for me). The dynamic is again super interesting.
Where we left off | 4/10 | by gulliblelemon/ @gulliblelemon
Simon meets Wilhelm by accident in the wake of Erik's sudden death. This story follows their lives through the years, and through more of their accidental and on-purpose meetings, as their lives change and they cross paths again and again.
The last update broke me and I’m greatful for it🫶
Royally whipped | 15/16 | by bigalockwood / @bigalockwood
Erik's death leaves Wille unable to pick up his duties as Crown Prince right away. Instead he's granted two years away from the spotlight at Hillerska. Now that he's finished his education, the court expects him to make a public reappearance.
What better opportunity for a reintroduction than Sweden's favorite baking show? It's low risk, low stakes, no distractions.
Well. If it wasn't for Simon Eriksson, musician and Wille's long-time celebrity crush, everything could've been so easy.
This is a blast to read. It’s so sweet and I love to tune in every week to ready my chapter. I’ll be so sad when it’s done!
Constellations of love | 8/9 | by spidaya / @simons-purplehoodie
TLDR: An enemies to lovers & fake dating story, with focuses on Simon’s struggle to keep his family afloat despite his father’s abuse and addiction, and Wille’s trauma and anxiety from childhood to adulthood, heavily based on the book “They Hate Each Other” by Amanda Woody
They are silly and they are sweet and they are in love and I love them too. Again one I’ve realized is almost completed which feels bittersweet already!
I’m know I have more but those are the ones I could remember up the top of my head!

TFP Reborn AU notes and thoughts
So, this has been a long time AU coming, and I'm reworking it from more out of character/impulsive writing choices. (BTW, critiques I encourage for the AU)
I've been writing a lot of notes, and am writing this post before really focusing on a fanfiction or comic (as if I don't have two huge wip comics lmao)
So first--
Optimus
For me, Optimus is extremely hard to write. He's a stoic character, wisdom beyond his years and with individualism taken away from his train of mind. Wisdom through war and death, Optimus's rebirth is met with a new, calmer world, but gifted with an "old school" perspective.
Originally, I wanted to have Optimus have a dance hobby, but I'm scratching that out and replacing it with a basketball aka "cube." I want Optimus to take interest in his older hobbies, with him saying, "Oh, I used to play this back in the 80s." I'm mainly referencing this from G1, and I want Optimus leadership traits to come through for his Cube team.
I've given him a complicated role of where he still needs to be this martyr, but instead of protecting Primus's people, he is force to reinvent himself and show compassion for the singular person that has destroyed countless of lives.
And, to be fair, I have little idea on how to write/develop this idea.
Megatron/Magnatwitch prev. and new Hobbies
Megatron is still his rebirth self, but unlike Optimus, he isn't too keen with his memories. When thrown back on Cybertron, Megatron suffered a concussion that basically gave him amnesia. Though, through therapy and consistent reintroduction of things he once knew, he slowly develop memories over time. This affects his developing personality with older traits, creating a different version of his past self.
Megatron was a poet, gladiator, and activist/politician.
Twitch, while a different/same individual, has some of the same traits.
When Twitch is reborn, his poetry is transformed into a lyrical passion. He becomes infatuated with music from the 80s to 2010s, creating songs and music sheets to match his projects.
His gladiator trait though, is lessened. As Megatron, he fought to survive and climb the ranks, but as Twitch, he was pushed towards wrestling and other fighting sports by his family and peers. Realistically, he hated it. But, he was so good at the sport, he even made all the way to nationals and won second place in his state. Though Optimus and their foster parents were proud of him, Twitch finally broke and asked them to never sign him up to those sports again. What was a sport to others, was a traumatic sense of survival for him, over and over and over.
When he's in his early teens, he grabs his friends and they make a tiny garage band called, "Playing Primus" (haha playing God get it anyways.) Their gimmick is the six friends would dress up in silly costumes of one of the Primes, and Twitch, ironically and purposely, represents himself. (Megatron playing Megatron in a band, yeah a bit silly I know) He takes the main lead in playing electric guitar.
I'm lowkey still working on the activist part.
Optimus and Megatron/Twitch Early Life Identities
Both Optimus and Twitch were raised as boys from Knockout and Breakdown.
When they start sending them to school, they get a notice that the two aren't updated on their vaccines, which is required for them to continue public school.
Knockout sighs and takes the two kids to a local free clinic, which is run by a "Remedy Family." When Knockout and Breakdown got the two kids, they just made the immediate assumption that they're raising two boys with a mysterious background.
Once the checkup is done, the four are notified that, actually, Optimus and Twitch are femmes.
"What."
"Did. Did you ever check their paperwork??"
okay why am I mentioning this, basically this is the most headcannon, impulsive writing choice I'm making that I can't personally let go of.
Optimus is trans. He goes from F to M, always identifying with his mech identity and experiencing dysphoria when being forced to grow up as a gender he doesn't identify with. It doesn't affect the plot too much, but there are points where I want to write Optimus questioning and assuring his gender identity, thus adding to his character growth as a sort of new individual.
Twitch, however, is a bit different. I have plenty of reasons as to why Twitch stuck with he/him pronouns, though still identifying as a cis femme. My reasons are for him to have a complex gender and sexual identity, but for Twitch as a character, he will say, "cause I don't care what you call me." Basically, Twitch is a he/him butch lesbian, and takes pride in confusing his classmates. Does this affect plot? Yes and no?? It's mentioned, but because Twitch treats it so nonchalantly, it's rarely brought up or considered. At the end of the day, Megatron/Twitch are still themselves.

WHEN COMES THE DAWN | a wip reintroduction
↳ General Info
genre: new adult fantasy court intrigue pov: 3rd person dual pov stage: re-planning/drafting started: 9.3.2023 projected word count: ~90k Book 1 of 2
FENICE VI AETIER, a portent of ill omens and the estranged daughter of the Vasilier, ignites a dangerous succession game between her and her half-siblings, where losing means death and winning means an empire.
The end of the Hes-Aei war brings with it a chance to prove her worth to her father. The challenge is simple: bring him the head of the deposed king of Hesperia, and Fenice will be granted an Ascension, marking her as a legitimate contender for the throne. But finding the defeated king in his own lands would prove to be harder than Fenice imagined— especially when the remnants of her father’s last war starts rearing its head.
↳ The King's Game
A system decreed by the first emperor of Aetier that whoever among his children is the most skillful shall inherit his crown. But time has warped the rules of inheritance dramatically. The only way to survive is to win, and the only way to win is to be the last one standing.
↳ The Major Players
FENICE VI AETIER ◇ the contender | The worst-kept secret of the imperial family, and now an unknown factor in the politics of the Aetier court. The King's Game is her chance to stake her place in history. What she seeks is glory eternal, and she will do whatever it takes to get it.
NIKEPHOROS DEOMINOS ◇ the serpent | The prince of a conquered kingdom, now nothing more than a war prize. He muffles his anger with practiced smiles, playing the game of deception even as it tears him apart at the seams. He will lose either way, all that matters is deciding what he can bear losing.
CHARLES VI AETIER ◇ the favorite | The Vasilier's son with the world at the palm of his hand. The lonely prince with a gentle heart and a willingness to turn a blind eye to the cracks in his perfect family.
SOLA EIDOS ◇ the hound | A man of of unknown origin and a shadowed past, his real name buried beneath the soil of his homeland. He is an information broker, a spy, an assassin-- if you pay the right price. The one thing that can never be bought is his loyalty, a worthy master is hard to find.
SARTORE VITAE ◇ the enigma | An eccentric noble from Leohnthal who can charm his way to a seat at every table. Great with words and even better at half-truths, he is a man that sheds faces as easily as a snake sheds its skin.
Find more WCTD content with the series tag #series.wctd and keep an eye out for monthly progress updates with #wctd-monthly -- the first post coming soon!

Speechless - Elves vs Humans and the right to speak up in the face of justice and not being supressed because humans think they're superior. Its about finding family and standing up for whats right.
