✨Seven(ish) Sentence Sunday 🧞‍♂️✨

Thank you to the lovely Mawce aka @justabigoldnerd for this Seven Sentence Sunday tag! Always a pleasure! ✨

Editing back through my work and I stumbled into this asshole. 🙃

Mal staggered with a half-empty bottle of airplane wine in hand, that daddy’s money paid for. Unlike his cohort, Noah had to work hard to get into his graduate program; Without his scholarships, unpaid internships, and paid TA and tutor jobs on top of being a full-time student, there was no way that Noah would have been able to afford his tuition. His parents kicked him out early on, so he didn’t have the luxury of wasting time nor money. He was there to get his degree, land a decent-paying job in his field of interest, and get the fuck out.

The well-libated colleague “accidentally” spilled some of the alcohol all over Noah’s front, and he appeared to have been aiming for the laptop. “—!!” Noah reacted just in time, pulling his equipment away from the splash zone as Mal laughed cruelly.

Definitely some contention here on all sides. 🤔✨

As always, I will leave this as an +open tag and gently alert the tag list. Happy Sunday! 💫✨

Holy fuck, guys?!?! When did there get to be that many of you?!

It's so insane that 600 whole people are fans of my work. That's, like, an entire auditorium. Call me Professor Illaros, damn. Thanks all of you for sticking with me and my wacky little world <3

🎉 In honor of this, I'm doing free art commissions! 🎉

If you're my mutual, send me an ask of any description (barring heavy nsfw), and I'll draw it for you! Characters, places, symbols, I'll do it all! (Disclaimer: I draw people well and that's about it lol, but feel free to ask for a gnarly looking dog or uncanny house if that's what you want). The more detailed the description, the better, and feel free to specify if you want a portrait or a full-body. It might take me a while, but I promise I'll get to your little guy in time.

Thanks again to all of you, and please have a bitchin night!

Get to Know Me Tag Game Thing

I was tagged by @loksthegreat ! Thank you!

1. are you named after anyone? Yep, my grandpa. I'm technically the 2nd. Same first, middle, and last names.

2. when was the last time you cried? Hard to say? I guess that depends on what you count as crying? I'm sure I've made myself tear up over some fictional scenerio some time in the last week. As far as a real cry goes, probably last year when my grandpa passed.

3. do you have kids? Not yet, but hopefully soon

4. what sports do you play/have you played? I did track and field, specifically I ran dashes and did hurdles. Jeez how things have changed... I also did tai chai in a class taught by a nun for a while if that counts?

5. do you use sarcasm? A bit

6. what’s the first thing you notice about someone? Honestly probably the eyes.

7. eye color? Greyish-Green

8. scary movies or happy endings? Happy Endings or Bad Scary movies. I don't really get scared by horror films, so if I'm gonna watch one I want it to be kinda fun and campy.

9. any talents? I've been told I'm a good cook, can't really think of much else off the top of my head

10. where were you born? Spokane, WA, USA

11. hobbies? Reading, writing, useless world-building, trying to draw, cooking, getting lost, DnD with my partner, falling down archaeological rabbit-holes

12. any pets? Not allowed in our flat, does a basil plant count?

13. height? 5'10 but my hair adds an extra inch or two, depending on how fluffy it is that day.

14. favorite school subject? History

15. dream job? Archaeology professor and author

Okay, I apparently need to tag 15 people, here goes. I'm gonna cheat and tag my partner first. @persnickety-peahen, @patienceofstone, @patternwelded-quill, @peresephones, @theprissythumbelina, @the-octic-scribe, @foragedbonesblog, @infinnative, @illarian-rambling, @scribble-dee-vee, @hallowedfury, @lord-nichron, @unrepentantcheeseaddict, @flaneurarbiter, and @abalonetea Anyone else who is interested can also do this!

[thecoolerlucky]

EY yo thank you for the tag!! I appreciate it, homie, @rotting-moon-writes!!

Rules: You will be given a word, and you must share 1 sentence of your WIP/s that starts with each letter in that word.

I'm working on several, but I'll post the one I'm doing for What I'd Do For A Livable Income

My word: CORVID

Your word: CHEESE

C Clearly, I must be part fish. Why else would I miss my mouth entirely when trying to drink water.

O “Oh. You didn't get her yet? Maybe I overestimated you," Drake chuckled, enjoying that his best friend wasn't as capable as everyone assumed.

R Respectfully, he told him to 'fuck off'.

V Viola. The name of the woman who looks as capable of crushing my head with a flex of her biceps as Alexander does.

I "If she wants to play dirty, I'll play dirty.”

D Drake took a sip out of what looked to be a blood bag, "I didn't peg you as that crazy."

LET'S GO!! IF ANY OF YOU PEEPS WANNA JOIN, COME ON: @leahnardo-da-veggie, @patternwelded-quill, @agirlandherquill, @sunflowerrosy, and @tiredpapergirl (If at any point you don't wanna be added to these tell me! AND I AM SO SORRY IF YOU GOT HIT TWICE)

Slowly catching up on things!

Character Voice Tag (with CW for profanity.)

Thank you lol @patternwelded-quill.

Here are the rules: Rewrite the line of dialogue from the person who tagged you into the voice of your OC’s! (You can include a short beat of action to help establish character if you want.) Pass on the tag with a new line of dialogue.

My line: "Oh yeah, you really told him, didn't you?"

Your line: "I'm just a silly guy. I can't help it."

~

Irving's eyes darted around the empty room before looking at Ramon. "Don't tell me..." He lamented. Ramon scrunched his face, his cheeks burning; the silence was all the professor needed. "You really told him. God damn it." He continued taking his glasses off.

~

I'll tag anyone who wants to do this lol.

[the-octic-scribe]

Hey, even if I can't post because life is busy , I love you all and im working on responses~

Get to know you better (A Tag game!)

Thank you @swtorpadawan for the tag!

3 Ships

Canon ship: Very recent but I am a big fan of Lorthremar and Thalyssira from World of Warcraft.

OC ship: Now I just want to say I love all my OC ships equally but the one I've written the most about is my Jedi Consular and Lana Beniko. I find my writing comes a lot easier for those two.

Ship of the week: The Overwatch ship Ouiyaw (Ashe and Widowmaker) has been getting much of my attention.

First ship: Showing my age like a whole lot of folks but it would have to be Justice League: Unlimited. Batman and Wonder Woman

Last song: Sabaton's Winged Hussars (COMING DOWN THE MOUNTAIN SIDE)

Currently reading

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms by George R. R. Martin

Ciaphas Cain: Duty Calls by Sandy Mitchell

Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree

Dune by Frank Herbert

Frontier Corps by Joe Kasssabian

Last film: Avatar: The Way of Water directed by James Cameron. I'm a big James Cameron fan and I think he's earned his title as King of the Blockbuster several times over at this point.

Craving: The Iranian version of the middle eastern confectionery treat Halva. I have to fight my lizard brain to impulse buy/make some every chance I get.

A important but gentle reminder that this a -no pressure- tag game for fun!

363 layer Cu Mai (10-1/4” overall, 5-1/2” blade) https://www.teshknifecompany.com/363cumai Here it is guys, the highly requested Cu Mai. Cu Mai is the name of the technique used to forge copper into a knife! Cu meaning 'copper' and Mai meaning 'layer'. This knife was forged with two different billets with each billet having different layer counts to make it really stand out. This blade was made in the drop point style and has bone handles. #CuMai #damascuscumai #metal #metalwork #blacksmith #EDC #custommade #metalworking #customwork #craftmanship #knifefanatics #edc #knife #knives #damascus #patternweld #knivesofig #kitchenknife #forgedinfire #TeshKnifeCompany https://www.instagram.com/p/CU95Uxlr9ki/?utm_medium=tumblr

✨💋Friday Kiss Tag (and Writing Share) 💋✨

~Today is the day~! 💛✨

Thank you SO MUCH to the following people who have tagged me in a writing share this week: @tragedycoded , @gioiaalbanoart , @wyked-ao3 , @drchenquill , @cowboybrunch , @sableglass , @drchenquill , @theink-stainedfolk , @kaeru483 ,

And a WIP Wednesday tag from @justabigoldnerd and @pippinoftheshire ! Y’all are amazing 🫂💛✨

I appreciate everyone who has tagged me in the last two days! This week has been busier than ever with work, but I haven’t forgotten about the tags. Thank you!! If I missed your tag recently, feel free to poke me in DMs 💛✨

Rules: from your Story/WIP, share a kiss. It can be any kiss, from familial pecks on the cheek, forehead kisses, platonic smooches, to full-blown makeouts

And, as always, if you don’t have a kiss to share—no worries! You can always use this as a writing share tag as well 💛✨

Rules: Share a snippet of your writing!

And now: a kiss from YWIMC 🧞‍♂️✨

“And, I think your eyes are beautiful….” Noah smiled. “…..they’re comforting.”

“Noah…..” Ali leaned forward, brushing his lips softly over his habibi’s. How sweet Noah tasted on his tongue; a Georgian peach. He wanted to savor that flavor as he pulled him closer and deepened the kiss.

“Mnnnhh—!!” Noah moaned inwardly, his glasses completely fogged and lopsided on his nose.

Very gently, Ali took Cauldwell’s spectacles off and folded them neatly with one hand, placing them on the bedside table as he leaned forward and pressed Noah into the mattress. And how Noah responded—that total trust, wrapping his arms tightly around the back of his neck to pull them closer yet.

As always, will leave this as an +open tag and gently poke the tag list as well. Happy smooching! 💋❤️✨

Well, I finally worked myself up to do some painting, so here's Izjik in her aquatic form!

I feel kinda so-so about it because of the blue wash, but paintings always grow on me once I let them sink in for a bit. I might still mess with the background tbh, now that I'm really looking at it. But thus is art! I hope you all enjoy me branching out from my medium a bit :)

300 Followers!!! 🥳🥳🥳 Recipe Poll!

Thank y'all so much! Its really encouraging to know that people are interested in the world and the characters that I've made!

When I reached 100 followers, to celebrate I recreated my MCs favorite food, kipsha and then for 200 followers I made Otilia's favorite food, daropaka.

Now that I have reached 300 followers I am making this poll with a list of the favorite foods of a few of my OCs so that I can show y'all a little more about the foods and customs of the Green Sea! Let me know which y'all would be most interested in seeing, and I will make it and post about it with a recipe and a bit of a history on that particular dish!

These are the favorite foods of Ninma, Wadikir, Istek, Dati, Shela, Akard, Zenit, and Penetinos (in that order).

Thank you again everyone, and here is to hoping that one day I'll get the chance to show you all of these recipes. In future polls I'll start adding some of the dishes from characters in the other books. And if this is the first time you've seen something from me on tumblr, vote too if you want and take a look at some of the other stuff on my blog!

I've been on a Damascus and pattern welding bender the last few days. I'm experimenting and pushing myself to try some new things. Some of these are failures and some are successes but in the end I'm really enjoying the process. It's facinating to me how many patterns could be made, it's endless. A few of these will get made into knives and the others not so much. #javosironworks #damascus #damascussteel #patternwelded #patternweld #steel #knife #knifemaker #blacksmith #forged #anvil #grinder #handmade #madeinminnesota (at North Saint Paul, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsGeFkIjoTt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qqymbdbsodf3

What's your favorite line from one of your stories that you've written so far?

His throat exploded with low growls, incapable of forming coherent words that weren't an occasional cuss or attempts to bite. 

This is for much later in What I'd Do For A Livable Income!

((If you do this, link your story, and add a line from later drafts or current! I wanna see what you all have cooking!!)

@patternwelded-quill, @leahnardo-da-veggie, @the-ellia-west, @agirlandherquill, @harleyacoincidence, @the-golden-comet and whoever else wants to pop in! HAVE A WONDERFULLY DAY!! ((NONNEGOTIABLE))

This You???: Find an image that fits one of your OCs. No explanation needed, but obviously if you wanna give one do so. Literally any image will do.

Gillius:

Tag: @somethingclevermahogony @patternwelded-quill @frostedlemonwriter @illarian-rambling and pretty much anyone who sees this.

If you wanna read why this picture it's under cut.

Last Line Game

i got tagged by @patternwelded-quill for the game, so here is the last piece from Ilus Lot - the weird journal exploring longing in TFT.

--

"Then she said I was to take a vow of silence. Not even to speak to sister Camilla, oh the pain I suffered to paint words not a soul would ever see. So this is my penance. Writing in silence throughout the night.

     I wonder if it is still a sin if I simply intone the letters with my mouth, not producing breath.

Should I tempt the mercy of Illu?

I sit with my back hunched over cloth as my brush trembles, I catch my self for a moment not writing the third canto but instead about Lucida. I licked my thumb and erased it lest she ever saw what my distracted doodles reveal.

I have been working through the day to write down the cantos, I feel like im made from soaked bread after dipping the brush so many times-

I need sleep."

Im so very tired, its one am, so sorry if i miss a moot, but for some people i want to see more writing of-
