rules: post the last line(s) you’ve written for your wip.

"Oh, Emperor," cursed an exasperated voice. "Can't a girl get any sleep?"

Ruriko's frown deepened. “You’re a dead girl, you don't get to sleep."

Its Tell me about your WIP Tuesday! #TWT for short! What have you been working on?

i’m so sorry for the late reply. happy (very late) wip tuesday! thank you so much for this.

i’ve been working on three wips!

a bazaar for magic - a dark, steampunk, industrial-ish fantasy about a person who sells stolen magic and all the trouble that surrounds him. there’s inter-dimensional travel, disabled mcs, pocs, are-they-really-humans, femme fatales and grumpy emo captains. (young adult)

grave mercy - a dark horror fantasy about two very different vampires individuals in an alternate version of hell. they basically end up teaming up in spite of hating each other to unravel the mystery of their ‘savior’, a divinity called the Wanderer. there’s vampires, scary beasts, a wack version of vatican city, the hardest tragic bromance (romance?) of your life and in general a lot of dying and suffering. (adult)

a florist’s guide to twisting time - a japanese au fantasy + dark comedy loosely based on the showa period about the dark art of botanical alchemy… and its relation to time travelling! it’s a really crazy concept lmao but it works. also this is my secret exercise wip. all i can say is a lady necromancer is the mc, there’s found family, a flower shop named after foxfruit and a greenhouse with live hearts in plant pots. (young adult)
