☆ COMING SOON ☆
"Don't you think Sen could be a model? Could be a pretty good backup if the gig thing doesn't work."
and who are you? is a compilation of linear, short stories about a young man named Sen Morningstar: lead singer of the boy band Eclipse, broke art student, self proclaimed cat dad of three. All of these titles, plus living with bipolar I disorder hasn't been easy for a young man living on his own, but he manages to navigate rocky ex relationships, surviving a motorcycle accident, and the death of his mother. He finds he becomes confused when looking in the mirror, seeing his mother's face staring back at him.
AWAY? was originally a project created for a scientific communications class, which is why Sen living with bipolar disorder is a central topic of some stories. Just a heads up if it feels like his condition is a primary idea for these pieces.
CONTENT WARNINGS: child abuse and childhood trauma, manipulative relationships, self-harm, cussing, in depth discussions about medical treatment and side effects, suicidal thoughts, substance use (alcohol, nicotine, drugs), sexual/suggestive content. I intend this story for an 18+ audience ONLY; please take care and read with discretion.

HOW TO KILL A GOD: A RE-INTRO
The hands of Fate will turn your head whichever way she wants you to look. Her grip burns like hellfire, and the sight she forces you to see isn’t always glamorous…
-> GENRE: literary fiction. adult. drama.
-> STATUS: editing.
-> POV: first person. present tense. stream of consciousness.
-> THEMES: grief. love and betrayal. family. brotherhood. revenge. fate. karma. privilege. the beauty of nature. the struggles of healing. unconditional love being tested. religious crisis. looking back vs looking forward. embracing your own power. moving on in life.
-> CW: grief. depression. suicidal thoughts. mentions of familial abuse. strong language. dark and heavy tone.
INCLUDES:
4th wall breaks to narrow the gap between the reader and characters. vivid and intense emotions expressed strongly and beautifully. pretty descriptions and tons of metaphors.
an old money family. horse racing. a fictional country in our world. a religion revolving around Fate and Karma as goddesses. a dead parent who haunts the narrative. dramatic male mc who has zero issues expressing his emotions - instead has trouble relishing in them. mc’s twin brother is a sarcastic bitchy bastard who’s right all the time and he knows it. Lovable, complex, and fun side characters who are occasionally pieces of shit <3 and need to get their lives together <3<3<3 and have their own subplots <3
SYNOPSIS:
It’s been eight years since the death of world-renowned explorer and horse jockey Indigo Haze. It seems as if everyone in the world has made peace with his passing - everyone except for his son Allister, who has made an idol of his father’s words, a precious journal gifted only to him, underneath the guise of ‘keeping his memory alive.’
He trapped himself in his own bubble of grief, and is unable to look beyond it to see how he’s causing himself more pain than good.
When the journal goes missing at the hands of his twin brother Preston, who only wishes Allister would look to the future instead of living in the past and longing for what could’ve been, Allister can only accept this as a sign of betrayal. Nothing less.
What begins as a small desire to ‘settle the score’ between them festers and burns until the brothers find themselves trapped in a series of bloody betrayals, each one as vile as the last. All acts become torture born out of vengeance, and a twisted desire to revel in mutual pain.
Rage gives way for exhaustion, inevitably, and as the burden and strain of their war begins to weigh on their backs, Allister and Preston are forced to confront the decay of the love they once carried for one another, and the uncanny death of their relationship.
How to Kill a God is a gripping and thrilling journey of a character’s descent into the lowest point possible in his life - a depth incomprehensible to him from page one. Deliciously dark and captivating, it captures the feeling of one’s own life rotting from the inside out, while there’s nothing they can actually do about it. Only watch and smile.
Shamelessly different. Shamelessly grandiose.
TAGLIST: @isabellebissonrouthier @wordwizards
MORE WIPS:
-> Songbird
-> Of Sinners and Seas (OSAS)

“You know, everyone else thinks you’ve lost your mind because of grief, But I know you better than that, and I know that whatever’s going on with you is more than whatever happened to your dad. The person in front of me, that’s not you. And I don’t know where the fuck she is, but I hope the real Naying Yue wakes up soon.”
NAYING YUE'S life has been on a downward spiral ever since her father disappeared three years ago. Expelled from university and alone after violently stabbing her friend in the eye, she believes her twenty first birthday is as good as any day to die, only for her suicide to be interrupted by an attack by monstrous beings. Saved by strangers who call themselves Outsiders, she is told her life as she knows it is a lie: Her father did not save her life as a child, but instead kidnapped her from the powerful Yue family. Thrown headfirst into the dangerous World of Outsiders, where humans endowed with a magical current are hunted ruthlessly by the eldritch beings known as the seraph and the power plays between factions shed just as much blood, Naying finds herself pulled by opposite powers and desires. Forced to play in games she does not fully understand and plagued by unexplained blackouts and boughts of violence, Naying must fight herself and the world to stay alive. But all she really wants is to find her father.
GODHOOD is the conceptual title for a prospective trilogy that follows Naying Yue as she reclaims her destiny. Set in a universe where magic runs parallel to the ordinary world in the form of a current. Those that possess the current are called Outsiders, endowed with extraordinary abilities and able to perceive the truth of the world, responsible for maintaining equilibrium. As Naying embraces the changes within herself, a young monk searches for an answer that has haunted him his whole life, and a skater must confront a part of herself she has tried to turn away from. A boy sits catatonic in a wheelchair in the garden, and a pair of twins are forced to chose between the past and the future. Their stories intertwine with one another's while overlapping with that of various other characters across the Godhood Universe.
Status. Drafting book one
Genre. Urban fantasy with wuxia and mythic elements
Themes & Tropes. destiny, the problem of free will, humanity, the trolley problem, the abuse and cycle of power (how we play into and uphold the systems that hurt and oppress us), individual identity & internal conflict, ambition & power, who we choose as a family, parent/child relationships (specifically father/daughter), balance
Tag: wip: godhood
More information available on the ppt intro of this wip!! I'm always open to asks about specific characters and worldbuilding, though I don't know when I'll be making an actual post about it. I mostly post small snippets here and there :)

Extra excerpt beneath cut!
“You don’t believe I’m her, do you?” she asked softly. “Naying Yue. The dead one.” “Dead, or missing?” Lien murmured in response. “Or found?” He stepped down into her space, so they were toe to toe, too crushingly close to stand on her own. She fought against stepping back, holding herself taut to prevent her body from swaying backwards without her control.  “Your bet,” she said, staring up at him. His eyes were dark. She could see a sliver of the moon in them at this distance. The last, and only, guy she had been this physically close to was Frey. “I bet you’re going to ruin something,” Lien said in a low voice. “Real or not.” Naying swallowed, then let herself smile. “How much are you willing to bet on that?” “Why?” Lien asked, boredom sweeping over his features. He took a step back. “Planning on providing a payout?” “I doubt it would be that hard,” Naying replied, following his step. “I don’t play nice.” Lien shook his head with a rueful grin. “I can see that much.” He paused. “So what’s your bet, then?” “My bet?” Naying echoed curiously. “Real, or fake?”  “Well,” Naying said. “It’s probably the same as yours, isn’t it? I’m a fake who is pretending to be the real thing, or I’m the real deal still putting on a facade. Either way, I’m going to fuck things up, aren’t I?” “There’s no odds if they’re in both of our favor,” Lien replied.

Works In Progress
🪽💫 The Gift and the Ghostspeaker 🌙🤍
-> Masterpost Link Here <-
On the planet of Zephan, three teenagers live their lives the way they always have.
Rhys Lucen—the son of the world’s ruler, the Ghostspeaker—lives in luxury with his family, including his secret and possibly cursed half-sister, Brynn. But when word gets out that three-year-old Brynn is alive, people start to panic and riot, and Rhys has to run for his and Brynn’s lives, aided by the same Ghosts that his father has the Gift of speaking to…
Sterling Pierce and his sister, Sage, struggle to survive their abusive Mage father’s magic addiction—which he feeds using them as an endless supply. But Sterling has the Gift of using magic as well, so when his father threatens to murder the siblings in a fit of rage, Sterling uses his power to fight back—killing his father, and nearly killing Sage by mistake. Now she needs a magic transfusion bigger than what any hospital on Zephan can provide, and there's only one way to gather more…
Kairo Rayos is descended from a long line of Ghostspeakers—one that ended with his infamous immortal father, Lev, who started the Lunari Alliance to fight the Ghosts’ rebellion against the Creator God, Solaios. Now Lev has been banished to the abandoned Blanklands surrounding Zephan City, and Kairo, thanks to a deal his father struck with the Ghostspeaker, is safe inside—but most Zephnic people don’t take kindly to followers of Solaios, especially immortal ones, and all Kai wants is peace. This kind of peace, however, can only come through the afterlife, and as his family and therapist are always quick to tell him, immortals can’t die. But when proof appears that they can—and have, as an immortal’s dead body was found in the Blanklands, seemingly murdered—Kai sets out to find the killer, and through them, eternal peace…
As Rhys finds himself assigned a seemingly impossible task from the Ghosts—killing every living immortal—and Sterling teams up with him to collect the immortals’ magic for Sage, they discover that things are not what they seem on Zephan, and that they're included in a prophecy called The End of Immortality. The question is whether or not the prophecy is true, let alone morally right—and will they find the supposed ‘chosen one’, who happens to be trying to get himself killed?
💚🗡 This Blood Will Remember ✒️🩷
Okay so it’s basically just vibes rn but I love it, stay tuned?
♠️♥️ Unsuited ♦️♣️
The Game for the Unsuited has officially reopened - and Alana Hargreaves, a girl with no proficiency in any of the four Suits of magic, is the first of the chosen Pawns.
She has a plan to win the Game without playing by the rules; anyone who had ever won before had gotten in, gone a bit insane thanks to the Game's mysterious challenges, developed Sanity magic, and gotten out. But if everything goes according to plan, Alana - and her best friend, Penn, who was chosen for the Game the year before - will learn a different Suit of magic and, once no longer Unsuited, be allowed to go back home.
But as Alana realizes upon entering the Game's giant forcefield, there are two problems with her plan:
One, Unsuited Pawns aren't the only ones playing - in fact, the Game is practically ruled by a Queen of Hearts Mage, and she doesn't want any of her victims to leave.
Two, Penn has almost lost her mind already, but Sanity wouldn't be her first Suit of magic; she now wields the legendary, reality-altering Suit of Creativity.
As Alana investigates Penn's strange new abilities and befriends other residents of the Game - including the Queen of Hearts' messenger brother, Ace, and Charlie, the Game's built-in AI assistant whose origins are somewhat murky - she discovers that the reason for the Game is darker than anyone would have guessed, and that to make it out alive she'll need more than her sanity...but will she fight her way out, or give in and give up her mind in the process?
🩸👻 Destined for Death 🕳️✉️
Nicholas Acker is a ghost—and a special one, because not every ghost can say they were killed by their best friend…who also happens to be a half-vampire-half-bloodwielder.
Jameson, said best friend, feels terrible for accidentally killing Nick—especially considering that he just got engaged.
So Jamie does what any decent gentleman would do: set out to kill Nick’s fiancee so they can be together in the afterlife.
But when Jamie’s undercover-vampire-hunter twin shows up at Nick’s funeral, bringing with him a whole new set of complications, and Nick runs into a teenage ghost with dreams of curing vampirism, they all have to team up to save themselves—and all vampires with hope of becoming human again.
💎⏳ The Soulrobbers 🗡🪨
It’s been a long time and I don't have a synopsis and I’m too lazy to write one, basically it’s about rocks with your souls in them and fighting over them like kindergarteners XD

WIP INTRO:
THE EXISTENTIAL WAR
(AKA: AVATAR NONSENSE)
(interact with this post to join the taglist)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Existential War spans the millennia that separates the many, many titles i will be writing for the next several years... and hopefully even beyond that.
Unlike other wips, the Existential War is something closer to a setting than a story—it is the game the Existential Gods are playing with the world. Through their immortal avatars, they manipulate all of humanity along their whims, trying to see who between them can take over the entire world.
... while falling in-line with their majority-agreed-upon 'rules'.
probably.
Tumblr media
Zenebe: [vaguely waves a hand in the air, his elbow in the other's hand, and rolls his eyes as he paces and dismissively explains) "Well! Long story short, there's a bunch of gods called the Existentials—they're the Existences of stuff, yadda yadda yadda, {Water} is Water. A long time ago, the Existentials put their heads together and decided it would be a really great idea for them to play chess with a bunch of us lowly, lowly mortals. So!"
Zenebe: [stops, turning to face Louise with a wide grin and a clap of his hands, which he then points at her. With hints of anger underlying his expression and in his otherwise-amused voice:) "They play a game of 'who has how much, and if I have the most, I'm the best' by having us lowly mortals fight each other to claim them territory, and get them even more lowly mortals—"
Mitzie: [has been standing off to the side, listening silently with a scowl and her arms crossed. Finally, turns a sharp look onto him and interrupts:) "Zenebe, cut to the chase."
Mitzie: [turns to meet Louise's eyes instead; voice harsh, but matter-of-fact) "we're avatars. That means, basically, we have to do what a god says. Since we're {Water's} avatars, we have to listen to {Water}."
Mitzie: [and turns a slight snarl onto Zenebe; sharply) "that. simple."
Zenebe: [offers her a smirk, but turns a much more serious look onto Louise]
Zenebe: (dryly, hints of tension in his voice) "right. What she said."
Tumblr media
THEME SONG:
I'm still living in a knife fight Living like a bad guy Can't stand what I look like I keep praying like a saint Believing it'll change me But the voices won't leave I see the tunnel full of light again I never reach it and it's getting dim I feel the darkness try to pull me in It just won't end It's sinking in my skin I'm stuck in a war I️ am broken and torn Dividing my head and my heart Between the good and the evil God and the devil Demons and angels They're tearing me apart (...) I keep begging for these bad things Living out my dark dreams Don't you try to save me I'm just looking for forgiveness Someone who can end this Can I get a witness It's good for my flesh It ain't good for my soul I want it to stop But I got no control
Tumblr media

NONCONTENDERS:
♚ Death ♚ Chaos (comatose)
Tumblr media
ADDITIONAL INFO:
♙ this is not a singular story. it is a collection of many stories, mostly disconnected besides following the individual characters. there will be individual "novellas" pulled out of the existential war/avatar nonsense most often encapsulating their early years or certain important events
♙ there are many HEAVY subjects within these stories, with miscellaneous content warnings varying across each. while i will be listing all of them (i can think of) here, they are not necessarily universal across the novellas
♙ there WILL be deaths. this is magic-war. ♙ most are concentrated in the early existiwar ♙ the early years are especially brutal ♙ avatars from different gods aren't... kind to one another.
♙ despite the deep trauma involved in all this, there IS a planned (and never-going-to-change) ending to the existential war. those who know of the ending say it is a good ending ♙ what that means will not be shared at this time :>
♙ some of the oldest avatars are alive from 20 AA to the very end of the existential war (approx 1000 AA). by nature of the progression of humanity, this will see a variable level of "technology" (read: magitech) across the stories.
♙ being as the avatars are all immortals, they inherently run on a MUCH longer time scale than us. 3 years might feel closer to 5 months, for example ♙ timelines will be displayed along with scenes
♙ HIGH HIGH HIGH AF FANTASY ♙ sometimes even WITH the weed! ♙ i mean wut ♙ MAJORLY action-filled ♙ i mean they're literally at magic-war
♙ includes: ♙ allegories. SO MANY allegories ♙ ex: 90% of avatars are bio kids of the god ♙ like it ain't even subtle ♙ gays. so many gays. ♙ they're all queer ♙ neurodiversity ♙ especially: ♙ autism & ADHD ♙ PTSD ♙ anxiety, depression, &— ♙ racial/cultural diversity ♙ gods exist across the whole world ♙ avatars are born within or adopt cultures ♙ also most are POC. ♙ like over 50% ♙ 25% of the rest aren't even human
Tumblr media
CONTENT WARNINGS:
♙ parental issues ♙ as i said, it's allegorical ♙ avatars are LITERALLY slaves ♙ and most are the bio kids of the god(s) ♙ i don't think it's hard lol ♙ neglect, abuse, exploitation, parentification
♙ general abuse, exploitation, and struggles ♙ again, the avatars are literal glorified slaves
♙ addiction ♙ drugs ♙ both "normal" (alcohol, weed) and "hard" ♙ gambling ♙ sex
♙ sex is openly talked about and implied, but will never be shown. fade to black in this hizzouse! ♙ sexual themes will be included in cws ♙ (both in tags and prior to scene)
♙ SA implied and mentioned ♙ NEVER openly displayed
Tumblr media
THEMES:
♙ trauma.
♙ parental issues
♙ found family! :D

WIP INTRO - NOTE TO SELF: MURDER COMPLICATES THINGS
(working title lol)
GENRE - romcom x murder mystery
STATUS - first draft
PITCH -
If you'd told Adrian joining a chess club in his freshman year of university would lead to him getting roped into solving the murder of his crush's ex, he probably would have believed you, because nothing would delight the gods more than making his life into a proper joke. He didn't even like chess.
THEMES/FEATURING - lgbtq+, autism rep, best friends to ???, humorous narration, dealing with grief, unrequited (?) love, complicated family dynamics, self-discovery (and self-denial), love expressed through domesticity
SYNOPSIS -
When Adrian first enrolled in university, he had a plan to drop out three months in. Enter Cillian, and there went the plan. Was it a little pathetic all it took was a single charming boy to smile his way for him to fold? No. It was a lot pathetic. Cillian was everything Adrian was not - smart, most obviously. Terribly unfunny (which almost circled back to being funny). Reserved, but weirdly unrestrained. And so completely unaware of his effect on people (Adrian) that it was genuinely painful at times. Ah, and of course - extraordinarily private. Now, Adrian had no problem with that. Or, he hadn't, until Cecile, Cillian's girlfriend, showed up on their apartment's doorstep. Well, that's one way to get fucking friend-zoned. Life went on, Adrian convinced himself he was completely and entirely fine with being just friends, and all was well until-- Until Cillian and Cecile broke up. Until, days later, she went hiking and fell. Death always seems so far away until it's not, and although Adrian is as unprepared to be the emotional support as a door might be, he's nothing if not determined to give it his best shot. Only, he quickly finds out Cillian needs a whole different kind of support. He's convinced Cecile's death wasn't an accident and is set on finding the (potentially non-existent) culprit. And although Adrian is less prepared to be a detective than a fucking door, he's nothing if not absurdly devoted to his completely casual best friend and all his needs.
EXCERPT -
“Vera she first met online,” Cillian said, tapping on the first girl’s, a pretty blonde's, picture. “And Eline is her podcast’s co-host, and she… uh… I don’t remember,” he murmured, and his face twisted with a sudden dismay. “How can I not remember that?” “I barely remember where I met my own friends,” Adrian rushed to say. He opted to not comment on Cillian’s use of the present tense there. “It definitely doesn’t matter here, anyway. She had a podcast, you said?” “Yes,” Cillian said slowly, as if his voice struggled against him. He swallowed. “About true crime. She was… quite passionate about it.” “Oh, huh. She probably would’ve loved all this, then,” Adrian said with a vague gesture at the wall, and, as it’d become too common lately, immediately regretted speaking. Instead of snapping at him, however, Cillian let out a choked sort of laugh. “Oh, yes.” He rested his forehead against the wall, closing his eyes. He breathed, once, twice, until it caught in his throat. “She would never forgive me if I didn’t solve her own case.” When he looked at Adrian, such rawness and desperation swam in his eyes it momentarily paralyzed Adrian. “Do you understand?” Yeah. He thought he did. And the realization only invited forth a whole new wave of dread. Cillian wouldn’t just give up. He wouldn’t just grieve through it, until the ache receded enough for him to think clearly again. To be himself again. He wouldn’t let go until he figured this puzzle out. But if the puzzle didn’t have an answer…
Notes: this is so entirely different from the rest of my works lol. I'm a fantasy girlie, that's what I'm most comfortable with, and yet, this idea has rotted through my brain, and thus I must entertain it. sometimes, you need to give your brain a break from all the worldbuilding and politics, and just write about something domestic (or, as domestic as solving a potential murder can be lol). I haven't ever written a story with the purpose of exploring my own experiences, so that's also new for me x)) anyway, I'm unsure where this will take me still, but ya know. it's the journey that matters anyway:D
if we're still doing taglists, I may make one if someone wanted to be on it lol

About The Projects
I have created a multilayered Universe for my projects, in which I write different character-driven narratives that affect a world consumed by mystery and the supernatural.

Written in Blood: Killian, a very old vampire from a bygone era, struggling to cope with the death of his lover centuries before, trying his best to live his remaining days in peace until his very bloody past starts to catch up to him.
Fiends With Benefits: Levi, a half-demon caught between the Mortal and Supernatural world, expected to be the best by both worlds while not being accepted by either. He lives under his predecessor's shadow until a plot that could unravel Fiend Society is brought to light.
There will be more stories within this world, so stay tuned.

Since I just started being active on here again, I tought about making a new intro post to pin and reblog!
On this blog I will mainly post about my Wips, do tag and ask games, post about worlbuilding, and reblog writing tips. All asks are welcome, and if you want to be added to the taglist or if you would like to receive asks, let me know! My intro is under the cut!
Who am I
My name is Sam (they/them), I write in English. I love languages and I study French and Arab at uni. I started on writeblr actually quite a bit ago and this is my reintro! (The first one is here)
What genres do I like
I mostly write low fantasy and dystopian, but I also like working on short stories and folk tales. I write a lot of queer characters and disabled characters because I am queer and disabled myself. I write many found families too.
I used to read a lot of everything when I was a kid, now I am in a serious reader's block. I like to read a lot of slice of life and contemporary stories, at times also mystery books, short stories and poetry.
Favorite tropes
Enemies to lovers and fake dating for romance. In general I love found families, impulsive character who gets more logical/logical character who goes apeshit!
Some of my works (their own intro post is linked)
Causing and Apocalypse trilogy: about a group of guys who have to save their siblings, and possibly the world. Stage: wrote the first few chapters but needs a bit of rework
Tales of Aontas: (the one I am most active on at the moment): five people get resurrected and given a mission to fulfill, but is that what they really want? It comprehends five books: "The Ship of Undead" and "Blood to the Water" are the first ones, I still miss the other three. Stage: chapter II, worldbuilding complete.
My favorite part of writing
I like worldbuilding and outlining and character planning. I mostly write to get them a story they deserve, I love spending time with my blorboes.
I like being here on tumblr, I have known amazing people, and I hope to know many more! Happy writing to y'all!
I also have a writing server on discord if anyone wants to join us to talk about their writing!

WIP Series Intro: The Old Gods
Tumblr media
Intro Post Last Updated April 2025
Series Title: The Old Gods
Genre: Fantasy
Books:
Book 1: The Shadow of Gods
Book 2: The Vengeful Gods
Book 3: The False Gods
Book 4: The Destroyer of Gods
Book 5: The Vessel of Gods
Book 6: The Warring Gods
Book 7: The New Gods
POV: 3rd Limited
Content Warnings: Violence, Death/Trauma, Mild Language, Emotional Themes
Magic System: Magic is a manifestation of the soul; some people are able to tap into the magical energy inherent in themselves, while others aren't. The reservoir of magic inside a person is a renewable but limited resource, like a battery; it can be drained but will recharge over time. Special crystals can store magical energy and can be incorporated into objects, devices, and even people. These crystals can be infused with magic and then used by people who can't use their own magic. Since overuse of your own magic can lead to illness, these crystals are a safer and easier way to use magic. Crushed crystals can be incorporated into tattoo ink, allowing non-magic users to use magic without a "device", but they must be replenished by crystals or a magic user.
Overall Plot: The Old Gods follows a character named Em'het who is a rare magic user. The series follows him through ten years as he discovers more about himself, magic, and works against the "gods" who use magic. He begins as a child trying to hide his magic to protect himself, and grows into a fierce young man determined to use his magic for good and not be corrupted like the old gods. He has a solid group of non-magic users who support him and teach him throughout his life.
Themes/Tropes:
Found Family
Growth and Discovery
Identity
Self-Determination
Duty vs Morality
Child Prodigy
Survival and Resistance
Coming of Age
Youth and Innocence
The Price of Magic
Main Characters: (Just for Book 1)
Em'het - 10M - brilliant, curious, inventive, loves taking things apart to discover how they work, messy, resilient, resourceful, eager, explorative, observant, funny
Danhal - 29M - passionate, academic, linguist, history nerd, just wants everyone to be cared for and happy, idealistic, jumps to conclusions, but has good instincts, so he's usually right
Jax - 38M - charismatic, leader, almost never serious, pragmatic, quick-witted, protective, strong, physically skilled, sarcastic, sometimes gruff, tough exterior but a caring heart
Mac - 25M - dedicated, confident, upbeat, optimistic, loyal, determined to prove himself, impulsive but quick to learn from his mistakes, wants to help create something bigger than himself
Ana - 28F - intelligent, serious, the problem solver, often the smartest person in a room, focused, disciplined, often clashes with Jax, compassionate, caring, vulnerable
Sha'tel - 27F - strong-willed, always takes care of everyone, great cook, sharp, analytical, remembers everything about everyone, a confidant, empathetic, resilient, gentle, brave
Quotes That Inspired This Series and May or May Not Appear:
We are not alone
The most important thing in life is have the courage to follow your heart
It's not the years in your life, it's the life in your years
The path we choose to walk is what defines us
There is no way to know what happens next
Sometimes the things we do for love are the hardest things we'll ever do
We don't get to choose our destiny, but we do get to choose how we react to it
In the face of the unknown, it's not about knowing the answers; it’s about trusting the people standing beside you.
It’s not about the plan, it’s about the people who believe in it.
History is not just a bunch of events; it's a reflection of who we are, and who we have yet to become.
True strength is not measured by the weapon you carry, but by the wisdom you wield.
To resist the influence of others, knowledge of one's self is most important.
If logic alone could save us, we'd have solved every problem by now. But sometimes, it takes a leap of faith.
The universe may not be fair, but that doesn’t stop us from doing what’s right.
A scientist doesn’t stop searching just because the answers are difficult; she searches because the truth is worth finding.
Every new discovery opens up more questions. But isn’t that the beauty of exploration?
I'll never give up, not until I'm dead, and maybe not even then

wip intro/masterpost - the raedoran cycle
hi hello here it is. my baby.
Tumblr media
genre: fantasy
pov: third person limited, with various narrators throughout
status: a series of 4 novels/stories, in various states of drafting
summary: in one night, Raedora is thrown into chaos. the royal librarian murders the queen and her youngest daughter with magic and flees, leaving behind the king and the crown princess to pick up the pieces. the princess spirals slowly into madness as her sworn shield tries to save her, terrified of her dead sister's prophecy.
two thieves in the capital set their sights on the crown jewels after attending the queen's coronation. but when one gets a little too reckless and catches the attention of the Mad Dog of Morbhard, their plans quickly go off the rails.
when their parents are killed in the Dragon Purges, two shapeshifters must hide amongst their killers to survive. one, a talented healer, tries to build a life that will be safe for them, but her little brother has his sights set on avenging their parents by murdering the queen that ordered their deaths.
a young witch is raised alone by her father, always in hiding, with strange dreams and visions of the future. when he dies of an illness even her magic can't heal, she must strike out on her own, searching for answers to the prophecy that has followed her for her whole life.
tag: the raedoran cycle
so originally this was one novel following multiple characters, but thanks to a minor plot bunny that greatly spiraled out of control (lacuna) it has become something much more. many of the four novels' events occur simultaneously, with their stories overlapping and intertwining as the character's lives do the same.
the knight of lacuna lake
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Keelan: baby boy war criminal. he narrates the story as he tries to save Maura from herself.
Maura: the golden queen of Raedora. she lost half her family in 1 night and handed it incredibly well all things considered (no she didn't)
status: first draft finished(!!), shelved while it marinates and i work on the rest of the cycle. likely going to come back and edit it at some point but for now it is what it is
tag: lacuna
the thieves of morbhard
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Arthur: master lockpick and ball of anxiety. he narrates his attempts to get Jack to notice him while also trying to steal the crown jewels.
Jack: cursed damned street rat. born on the night of the triple new moon and condemned to a life on the streets, he's got his sights set on stealing enough to get both him and Arthur out of Morbhard for good.
status: just barely starting to draft. fully outlined.
tag: thieves
the dragons of kiltide
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Emilia: the only voice of reason around here. a talented healer fighting to protect her baby brother from both the persecution they face in their homeland and the Purges that killed their parents.
Fabin: teenage ball of rage. his parents died in front of him when he was 13 and he has been supremely chill about it since then and doesn't everybody sleep with their sword under their bed?
status: outlining with the occasional scene.
tag: dragons
the witch of the west
Tumblr media
Birdie: a talented witch born under and blessed by the full silver moon. raised by her father in the woods after fleeing the witch trials, she is determined to understand and fulfill her prophecy. her strange dreams of dragons, thieves, and knights lead her to a search for the people who she believes will help her in her journey.
status: it's complicated. this where all the original material lives for the most part so it's outlined(sort of??) and i've been writing scenes for it but idk what the actual timeline of events is and i've changed a LOT since i started. so it's a frankendraft mess. we'll get there eventually.
tag: the witch
and that's it! that's my baby! i think about Them a lot these days.
taglist: ask to be added <3 @k--havok @theharpywrites @oh-no-another-idea @space-writes @lyssa-ink
links:
lacuna wip intro/masterpost
salt and brine (pre-cycle story about side characters)
comic sans intro (silly)
i will add more as things get posted but for now you can find everything for each story/character through the linked tags up above. i am always available to scream about my children :)

Tumblr media
So, hi! I'm Verne (they/them), practically a queer elder in my 30s, brand new to tumblr (dunno how I ever missed the boat), and I only ever seem to write in the 20 minutes or so between pulling up to work and clocking in, or when I'm putting my toddlers down for a nap but don't want to crawl out of their beds and address the chores I gotta do while they're out of the way. I've written poetry, prose, and roleplayed in the past but got away from it for years and years, and only recently started writing again. I have notebooks and lists of story ideas but the few things I have fleshed out are mostly silly character-based "what if?" scenarios, because those are the most fun to me. Too many of my stories are me simply wanting to write a scene, developing a bit of a world around it, then losing interest entirely. I hope this blog can change that a bit, help me focus on following through or figuring out how to better develop small ideas into something longer.
Interests:
Post-apocalyptic
Near-future dystopias
Scifi/Fantasy (urban) with magical realism
History/AltHistory (especially lesser-known and marginalized stories)
Horror, dark, violent, and mature themes
Queer everything. I can't write heteros to save my life and I'm not all that sorry about it.
Sexy melodrama and smut with too much plot
Fanfiction (I could read/write Fallout stuff all day)
Some Favorite Authors:
Octavia Butler
Nnedi Okorafor
VE Schwab
Starhawk
Madeline Miller
Ta-nehisi Coates
Becky Chambers
Emma Donoghue
Looking for:
Community, inspiration, other writers to follow, and problem-solving tips in storytelling and sticking to stories when things get tough. I really just need some folks to talk to when working through all the things in my head. Open to the occasional tag but I'm not great at responding.
I have plenty more little bits of nonsense in various states of readability, like character backgrounds, alt-ending scenes, slice-of-life banter between characters, etc. These will be posted under the tag #ntzsche misc
Noteworthy WIPs:
Bad Blood - A Fallout Nuka-World fanfic (#ntzsche Nuka-World)
My longest story is a fanfic, but with a cast of characters largely not in the Fallout 4 DLC. I intend to eventually write this in a way that someone who hasn't played the game would be able to easily read.
Lafayette, the son of a 'retired' raider, left his abusive father to find his place in the world and was taken in by an eclectic trauma-bonded found family that inspires him to be a better person and shows him love he is certain he doesn't deserve. When his father comes across them in a raid, Lafayette is given the offer to join him, and he agrees in order to save the settlement and his little brother. Lafayette finds that being with his dad again, and being the son he always wanted him to be, isn't nearly as difficult as he thought it would be. He struggles to maintain the person he wants to be with the person he suspects he is, all while a cast of scheming raiders, wastelanders, and slaves vie for power in the raider city built within the rusted remains of an amusement park.
Salem's Child (#ntzsche Salem)
A background on one of the lesser Nuka-World characters that I got carried away with.
Andrew Rook doesn't look like his parents. He looks like someone they are desperate to forget. Growing up in post-apocalyptic Salem, Massachusetts has it's perks, though. In a fading settlement run by incompetent men who would rather blame the population of feral black cats for their problems than try to solve them, Andrew and his two best friends build a world in their imagination that shields them from the wretchedness of the wasteland and the people they have to rely on to survive.
Hechizo
Another character background that I would love to expand into a few short stories around.
Mateo Zavala was born in the vibrant and tight-knit community of Navarro. His great-great-great-great-great-great grandmother, a pre-war ghoul, is still the ruling matriarch, and it's hard for her not to play favorites when she has over 300 living descendants.
The Crash (#ntzsche Crash)
A what-if real-world rewrite of an event from another story. I just really enjoy writing these two.
Gabe always knew his functional alcoholic roomie would get into a terrible car wreck some day, but he never thought he would be dumb enough to be in the car with him. When the consequences of the wreck threaten to destroy Dave's life, Gabe finds himself doing everything he can to hold those pieces together. The love he harbors for his straight, polyamorous best friend runs deeper than either of them are ready to face, and find that Dave's injury turns their relationship completely on end.

// a writeblr blog reintroduction.
Tumblr media
about me —
i’m elliot (or e), a black nineteen-year-old college student that uses they/them pronouns.
formerly petals4soho
i’ve been writing fiction since i could write. my goals here are to become more consistent with writing so i can finally finish some of my passion projects all without falling off the face of the earth again.
most (if not all) of my wips are realistic young/new adult contemporary fiction with coming-of-age & found family themes, but i’m honestly open to writing anything that piques my interest!
ask/tag game friendly! message me about your writing, tag me in your updates and please talk to me about professional wrestling or the new york rangers! i love it!
wips —
teenage vows
my main project that explores themes of growing up, loss, grief, forgiveness, and friendship. it follows Alex Ramírez, a seventeen-year-old senior in high school trying to navigate life after the death of his ex-boyfriend and best friend, Wally Fletcher. in the midst of it all, he reconnects with a former fling, Bea Mumford — a now pregnant sixteen-year-old whose boyfriend wants nothing to do with her and the baby — and attempts to earn forgiveness from Wally's little sister, Julia. if you like coming-of-age stories where the teenagers don't pretend to have everything figured out, this wip may be for you!

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.

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
