Obviously message me for plotting

Screw it. I’m adding Lois Lane

[elphababorn]

If I were to add Lois Lane-era fluid -to my multi muse would anyone write with her

As my RP comeback

[elphababorn]

The Dracula Daily fandom is wild because it has unearthed my repressed memories of the 2009 League of Extraordinary Gentlemen YouTube fandom.

[elphababorn]

I saw “Assassins” in its second night of previews off Broadway today. It was. Something. That’s for sure. Anyone who knows me knows that’s my FAVORITE show. So this was a test.

[elphababorn]

Is it time for me to bring out the Descendants spooky season OC that I’ve been debating for years. Or is that fandom/au/verse totally nonexistent at this point

‘I’m not E L P H A B A.’ 

Liir’s voice wavered a moment with trepidation. He never said the words “my mother,’ as if the very word were a hex upon the listener. But...the woman’s tone was difficult to place. Not malice, not murderous. Was it confused?

He lowered the hood, feeling for the infant tied to his back more out of absentminded habit than anything else (perhaps a half-formed concern, one rooted in responsibility instead of the wilting shell of memory of what exactly had happened).

“Why? What was she to you? What do you know?”

The witch was dead. Wasn’t she?

“Who are you?”

[elphababorn]

For @unelectedofficial

————-

Liir wasn’t sure how he arrived there. He wasn’t sure how most magic worked these days, even as it coursed through his very being. A soft whimper sounded from the tiny being strapped to his back, covered by the heavy, ratty cloak.

He, as always, appeared something of vagabond. Torn bag strung haphazardly across his chest. His hair, long, black, and matted hung in front of his face.

The town seemed…familiar. The building too. Austere. Larger than most structures there. Was this still the eastern region?

Liir didn’t trust authority. And yet here he was.

“Perhaps you can help me.”

His mouth twister somewhat. His face remained mostly masked.

[elphababorn]

Like for a starter. Will be at work but wanna get back to writing

[elphababorn]

Finally getting around to “The Secret History” is wild. Because I am a person who both went to one of those “Great Books” lib arts programs and then to an elitist grad school. And it really do just be like that.

[elphababorn]

So “the secret history” is wild because, for a time, I went to one of the schools used as a dominating inspiration and now I’m remembering why I avoided this book for a while.

Spoiler: it’s because I had a breakdown and was asked to leave

[elphababorn]

Liir sat next to her and looked up.

“Do you see any shapes?”

He smiles ever so softly at the little girl and gently ran his fingers through her hair.

“When I was your age I would always look for shapes.”

It occupied the time in a very lonely childhood. He wished he was better at connecting.

Rain stiffened at his fingers in her hair. Touch was still a weird thing for the two of them. It wasn‘t that Liir purposely had kept his touch from her, but she was so burdened with memories for him that the young girl hadn’t quite gotten comfortable with contact.

“ Thoughts. They’re thoughts. “ Rain muttered, tilting her head to the side. Still, her eyes never left the sky nor did any real emotion appear, “ And they go away. “

Liir sighed quietly and adjusted, pulling his legs up to his chest a bit.

“Well, what types of thoughts are they?”

It wasn’t the best question, but he was at a loss for words. He felt a tug. His love for his daughter. HIs pain at not being the best he could for her.

[elphababorn]

@elphababorn

She stared up at the sky. That alone wasn’t entirely strange for her. Sometimes, she claimed it was because that’s where she truly was from and she was only studying her home. EVen at a young age - Rain was a handful of strange comments and actions.

“ Clouds. “

Liir sat next to her and looked up.

“Do you see any shapes?”

He smiles ever so softly at the little girl and gently ran his fingers through her hair.

“When I was your age I would always look for shapes.”

It occupied the time in a very lonely childhood. He wished he was better at connecting.

[elphababorn]

Send me a fandom and I'll tell you what character I would RP from that fandom.

[elphababorn]

Yay I’m 26 now
