a WIP I have finally released into the wild for @goodintentionswipfest -- yes, I'm posting this a little late, but I suppose better late than never is exactly in the spirit (hah) of this fest
Fandom: Kinnporsche the series Ship: Kinn/Porsche Words: 2.5k Rating: Explicit (this is pure episode 5 inspired smut folks)
Excerpt:
“I gave the order,” Kinn says. Well, fuck Kinn and his fucking orders, Porsche thinks as he crawls his fifth lap across the hall. And fuck this stupid, pointless punishment too; as if Porsche can’t crawl across the hall a hundred times, even with his hands bound behind his back. Except the crawling obviously isn’t the point. Tying him up and putting him down is the point. Having Big and Ken there to jeer as he crawls is the point—as if Porsche can’t tell that they’ve been ordered not to hurt him, when their kicks barely even hurt. No, making sure Porsche knows that they can say or do whatever the hell they want to him, as long as Kinn wants it to be so? That's the fucking point.

It's a wrap!
Thank you all so much to everyone who posted! By my account we have 25 new fics in the collection since announcing this year's fest, and I think I've reblogged everything that was shared to Tumblr. (If you posted and I missed you, though, please send me a message and let me know!)
It warms my heart to see people excited to release their WIPs into the world, and I hope your writing is able to get some of the love it deserves. Although this year's official posting day is over, the collection will be open all year. Also, I fully intend to host this again next year, so continue to spread the word! Know for yourself - and let your friends know, if you'd like - that even if that fic is never going to be finished, there is still a place for it in the world and in the fandom conversation.
Thanks again, and happy November!

Here’s my contribution to Good Intentions WIPFest. A very old early Widdershins fanfic that’s too dark for the tone of the comic and has diverged too far from canon. But hopefully someone might like the first chapter.

Good Intentions WIPFest 2024
HELLO! Halloween is less than three weeks away, and what could possibly be spookier than abandoned WIPs? Here at Good Intentions WIPFest, we invite you to let your ghosts come out to play!
Good Intentions WIPFest is a celebration for the dead and abandoned, but never unloved. The skeletons in your WIP folder, the vampires that you just couldn't finish lest you be drained dry, the ghosts that haunt you with the promise of what might have been. We believe those fics deserve to see the light of day - even if they are of the kind that can only come out at night - and Good Intentions WIPFest is a space for you to share them.
If you would like to join us in the spooky celebrations, it's very simple! On October 31st, post your unfinished stories or artwork to the Good Intentions AO3 collection. Lift the burden off your shoulders. Free yourself from those fics you are never going to finish. Give them a space in the world to come out to play!
There are only a few main rules:
Use the "Abandoned Work - Unfinished and Discontinued" tag on AO3 so that your readers know what to expect.
If you're posting on Tumblr, please mention this blog and/or tag "good intentions wipfest" and "good intentions 2024" so that I can find it to reblog.
No harassing other authors to finish!
Don't beat yourself up about not finishing! This fest is not a challenge to finish anything, it's an opportunity to let go guilt-free.
If you want more details, feel free to read through the FAQ, or to send me an ask here or on my main blog @roselightfairy. And please spread the word far and wide!

“I mean,” said Huaisang. “I’m going to fuck you with these tonight.” His voice lowered and his face sobered. “All of them.” Jiang Cheng’s heart began to throb loud in his ears. “One after the other.” Nie Huaisang let his fingers trail over some of the displayed toys. “Until you’re begging me for mercy. And then,” he continued, one corner of his mouth quirking up, “I’m going to keep going.”
Releasing this from the vaults for the Good Intentions WIP Fest. Apologies for not having an ending…

do you want to see thor odinson take part in acts of horrendous violence while rationalising them as noble, necessary, and an expression of love, and while possibly not actually having a meaningful choice in it but choosing simply not to think about that? boy do i have a fic for you.
(my last and longest entry for @goodintentionswipfest! thanks for running this event, i'm having such a good time 🖤)

After TWO years(!!!), I present the second half to my Rapunzel au for my and old friend’s characters. It feels inexplicably good to clear it out of my drafts finally and fix the cliffhanger I left the first half on. Please heed the tags and read the Notes at the beginning carefully. 
@goodintentionswipfest
Summary
The princess bargains with the witch in the forest for a way to defeat the shadow that threatens to swallow all the light in her kingdom. The forest comes alive and shows the knights the way home. A man who smells like smoke scales the tower in the forest and crawls inside. Blood will spill blood, breaking a decade-long curse. Blood will reunite with blood and find a way to vanquish the shadow before it extinguishes the kingdom’s light.

I don't know who could be interested in an ABANDONED WIP but here it is.
I have too many I want to focus on, and this one hasn't been added to in like a year and a half.
The trials have happened, Roy was sentenced to 10 years reduced to 5 in prison, Riza managed to stay in the military, Grumman is president.
Roy gets out of prison feeling ancient and useless, but someone's waiting at the gate with a mysterious letter.
This was posted for @goodintentionswipfest 's Halloween even. And to make some room in my brain 🤯😅

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Dragon Age: Inquisition Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: The Iron Bull/Dorian Pavus Characters: The Iron Bull (Dragon Age), Dorian Pavus Additional Tags: Plot What Plot/Porn Without Plot, Abandoned Work - Unfinished and Discontinued, Technically unfinished but stands alone pretty well, Dom The Iron Bull (Dragon Age), Sub Dorian Pavus, First Time, Spanking, ass eating, Anal Fingering, Anal Sex, Size Kink, Size Difference, Orgasm Denial, Coming Untouched, Good Intentions WIP Fest 2024
Words: 3057
Summary:
Dorian and Bull’s first time in bed together, unfortunately devoid of context.
“Bull, please,” he tried. He chest burned at how desperate he sounded.
“Yes, Dorian?” he asked, false innocence threading his voice. “Can I do something for you?” The teasing was too much; Dorian buried his face in the pillow and couldn’t respond. He didn’t beg. Despite the fact that he just had, it wasn’t something he could do. There was a line.
One of possibly two things I’m going to release to the public for @goodintentionswipfest.    Originally it would have had a lead in, a middle connecting bit of smut, and more of a conclusion, but it reads like a mostly complete sex scene, so hopefully some people will enjoy it.  Also this means I’ve finally officially written my DA otp instead of just reading a whole lot of it.

One more day!
I'm so excited to see everyone's posts tomorrow! Note that the mod for this fest is just me and I'll be at work, so reblogging will be somewhat sporadic - but I'll be looking for mentions and tags as I have breaks and will try to reblog everything! I'll be looking in the tags "good intentions wipfest" and "good intentions 2024" and for mentions of @goodintentionswipfest, and will be reblogging with fandom, author, and medium (fic, art, etc.). If I miss yours, you can always send me an ask here or at @roselightfairy to let me know!

So excited to look at the notes of this post - and so excited to see everyone's posts tomorrow!
Only a few days till Halloween!
...or, more importantly, Good Intentions posting day! Reminder to poke through your WIP documents and figure out what you want to let go of! I'd encourage you to only post for the fest if the thought of releasing the fic into the world makes you feel more free than stressed. :)
Anyone want to share what their plans are in the replies or reblogs of this post?

thank you for running this event! i'm having such a good time going through + cleaning up old projects for it, and it never would have occurred to me to do so if it wasn't A Thing. looking forward to hallowe'en 😁👻🧡
Thank YOU so much for planning to participate! I have had so much fun running this fest in the last few years (and freeing myself from more than a few WIPs in the process, too). Sometimes looking at our old writing and letting ourselves appreciate it for what it is can be a real treat, and I'm so glad you're having a good time doing it!
