Actually really love seeing and hearing about everyone's different Laurences.

idk what the ship name is for John x Arthur x Oscar, but I think something involving Seraphims or Ophanims/Thrones would go hard

never in my life have experienced chaos until my schools psychology depart got shut down so now all the kids that were supposed to be taking gcse psychology (ME!!!) have to rush to get accepted into a different department

Now that it's the new year and I have time to think again, I'm taking @tinygigas and @subzeroparade up on the Writing Review open tag. This was a big year for me, since it was the first time in over a decade I actually published fics on a site! I'm quite proud of all my progress creatively in 2023, and I'm looking forward to what 2024 has in store.

Words and Fics

11,542 words spread over 4 published fics, all Bloodborne

3 completed fics

1 ongoing multichapter

2 current WIPS

3 WIP chapters

1 planned fic I have yet to start

Ships

Technically I've only published for Ludwig/Laurence

Although there are a multitude of implied ships in my other fics including Gehrman/Laurence, Micolash/Laurence, Brador/Laurence, and Ludwig/Simon because I'm an unashamed multishipper.

Top Fic by Kudos

Communion (M) with 18 kudos

Top Fic by Hits

Still Communion (M) with 267 hits

Fandom Events

I took part in a fic/beta workshop hosted by a friend which was delightful, full of amazing art, and very helpful, the result of which was Crematorium (T).

Upcoming Projects

I will finish Ouroboros of Modernity (T), the silly mundane modern au my friends and I came up with.

I have three more short fics to follow the same timeline as my other oneshots, so look forward to those!

Writing Reflection

This past year was tumultuous to say the least, but I had more creative energy during it than I have since at least 2015, and more importantly, I've met a wonderful group of friends that have been encouraging and kind and have been endless sources of inspiration. I'm beyond pleased with my progress this year, and I'm especially proud of my last work of 2023, Charade (M), which might be the best piece I've ever written and is a tribute to the two biggest brainrotting influences I've had this year.

I hope I can continue to create in 2024 for Bloodborne and other fandoms I love as well. Here's to another year!

[cephalololopod]

Hello????

Heavens-- 😭

This is really big for me! I know I'm a pretty new and small blog, and I don't always have a lot to offer, but I really, really appreciate each and every one of you! I hope you all enjoy everything I have in store.

Also! To celebrate, I want to do a little something! I would like to write little drabbles (or headcanons) for anyone who wants to send in a prompt! Don't be shy, send something in!

Again, thank you so much!! I love and appreciate every one of you!

[cephalololopod]

I wish someone would ask me what I think are Laurence's charm points since I spent so long making that silly meme.

[cephalololopod]

Thank you, @galaxirin for the tag! Here is my fanfiction writer bingo card.

Since everyone else is offering some explaining for certain points, I will too:

- I used to share a ff.net account with a friend and we joint published work, but that has since been deleted. Another friend got me to join Wattpad so I could read their stories. Currently I have an ao3 account, you can find me at SassyCephalopod.

- I used to be very big in tumblr rp scenes until the Great Purge, where now I only rp privately.

- I love an occasional fluff fic but I suck at writing them.

- Currently I only have published works up for Bloodborne, but I have in the past written for other fandoms, and will in the future, undoubtedly. (Probably TMA, next.)

- I haven't forgotten about you, mudane modern au, I will finish you...

Tagging: @ferrerorogier, @spaghettisaurusrex, and @laughtracklesbian as well as anyone else who wants to do this!

Saw a painting of a medieval horse and realized how much Ludwig's beast form looks like a medieval horse and I will now be thinking about this for the rest of the day.

[cephalololopod]

Thinking many, many thoughts about Ludwig today. His theme's lyrics, Yamamura's mantra, and the music box from Gascoigne's fight.

Actually, it's not just a random hunter in the drabble of my last post. That's my hunter oc, Bertram, who really would try and move the celestial children out of the walkway and get wrecked by frenzy in the process.

[cephalololopod]

I was tagged by @spaghettisaurusrex to shuffle my most played list and post the first 10 songs that come up!

1. Clockwork - Taemin

2. Love You Better - GOT7

3. Speed - Buck-Tick

4. The Red Shoes - Kate Bush

5. Almost (Sweet Music) - Hozier

6. Morirò da Re - Måneskin

7. Killing Me Softly With His Song - Fugees

8. Mad Love - Mabel

9. Blooming Day - EXO-CBX

10. Lose - Wonho

(I skipped multiple songs from the same artists, otherwise this list could just be an individual discography.)

Tagging: @galaxirin, @ferrerorogier

[cephalololopod]

I finished TMA and I apologize in advance for the flood of content I'm about to reblog for it.

[cephalololopod]

I hope my Damian anon is doing well and is happy knowing I'm writing their boy as a pov character in this upcoming fic just so he gets more love...

[cephalololopod]

Great news!

Overwrought, unspoken years of gay yearning does get you results!

But only on account that the rest of the timeline is a little bit fucked up.

[cephalololopod]

When the question of "why do you stay?" gets answered with "where else could I even go?"

[cephalololopod]

I think once I reach 20 followers, I want to do something nice. Maybe write drabbles for anyone who wants.
