Scars & Silver Linings

The space around him bore the signs of hasty transitions and endless duties: reports, ledgers, and tomes stacked unevenly on the once-immaculate oak desk, a bookshelf crowded with the discarded training daggers he’d only gotten halfway through re-sharpening, the faint smell of stale tea lingering from the cup abandoned by the window — the Front Desk’s assumption that he shared Farah’s fondness for the stuff.

Weight of Winter

Bloom and Sky celebrate the winter holidays together, hoping to share a joyful time, but the weight of winter lingers in more ways than one. Between lingering wounds from the war, unspoken grief and shadows of the past, they must confront the burdens they've carried since meeting and rediscover warmth in each other.

Fate Noir: the Alfean Connection

For @veritaserum07

Dearest Karina, here ist my HEX gift for you! I had heaps of fun with your prompt "non-magical AU" and hope you'll enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed creating it 🥰

Many thanks to Cherries11 and Septemberrie, my trusty brainstorming & beta team!

The nerve of those Whos. Inviting me down there - on such short notice! Even if I wanted to go my schedule wouldn't allow it. 4:00, wallow in self pity; 4:30, stare into the abyss; 5:00, solve world hunger, tell no one; 5:30, jazzercize; 6:30, dinner with me - I can't cancel that again; 7:00, wrestle with my self-loathing... I'm booked. Of course, if I bump the loathing to 9:00, I could still be done in time to lay in bed, stare at the ceiling and slip slowly into madness.

Hello my dear!! Your secret Hex has come again after such a long time!

Life gets even more stressfull at the end of the year specially with the holidays coming, which leads to the main concern— the time is drawing near, are you excited? What are your thoughts so far and how are you handling the stress?

I'm doing my best to have everthing nicely wrapped up. BUT WE'RE ALMOST THERE!!

xoxo you HEX Anon.

Ahhhhh hello hello I’ve missed you!! I completely get the weird combo of pain and joy that the holidays bring but I am extremely excited to wrap myself in your gift like a blanket very soon!

Wishing you all the luck as you head toward the finish line! xoxo

Everyone needs a sicko to bounce ideas off of. It's necessary to survive any fandom ever.

Hello Mate! Your anon is back ✨

You had me biting my nails while I waited for your answer but I also get that life gets in the way. Having said that, I’m here to take you away from reality and into Rivusa fantasyland ✨ here are your next questions:

If you could pick a color for Musa, which one would it be?

On a scale from 1-10, how much do you want your main character to suffer/ have a bad time?

When asked for a Rivusa slow song, which one comes to mind?

Choose between: cave or sewers.

And we’re done for the moment. Do you know that feeling where you have a million questions but as the idea is not yet defined you are not sure how to ask them? Fun times

See you next time my Dear~🎶

Hi hi hiiii! Haha if nothing else, I am definitely here to keep you on your toes!

More fun questions let's gooo:

1. Though she committed literally every fashion felony possible in the show, I did very much like her in her mind fairy-inspired purples. Though... darker shades are the best bc I'm emo af so like a deep purple/indigo is the sweet spot for me. (Seee, isn't it lovely?!)

2. Is 100/10 an option?! I simply ADORE suffering, agony, blood, tears, mental anguish, etc. Give it alllll to me - but ONLY as long as there's some semblance of a happy/bittersweet ending to soothe the pain (:

3. Oh god music is my weakness and has now become the sole reason for this response taking as long as it is haha - I think I might just have to give you options? Make you make the decision instead of me *evil cackle*

So first we have the classic-est classic: Your Call by Secondhand Serenade

Next we have my very own wife's: If You Ever Did Believe by Stevie Nicks

And the last one will have to be: Only One by Yellowcard (but definitely the acoustic version)

4. And my vote is for caves!!

I'm feeling your pain too, but I hope these answers get you at least a little step closer to where you're headed. I still have a whole month of wiggling with excitement to endure over here before I get your gift!

Toodles, my friend xx

you ever write such a banger line of fanfic that you have to sit down and stare at the wall for awhile lest your own hubris get to you like a tragic greek hero
