These Endless Days (Are Finally Ending in a Blaze)
Chapter Nine - City under Siege
Tatiana’s story; the city is blockaded and the citizens are desperate. Some a little more desperate than others. In the midst of this, Tatiana Fedorova is called, the previous Slayer having finally perished after two long years in a camp, the Watcher’s Council voting unanimously against any rescue attempt. Just fifteen years old, Tatiana is frightened and - trapped in a city fast running out of food and hope - she finds she has to fight off more than just the ravages of hunger.
Tatiana awakes on the morning of the third day after her fifteenth birthday - a day that goes mostly unacknowledged by both her and her family, because what would be the point - and feels different. Blinking into the weak morning light, her breath already clouding in the cold air of her bedroom, she tries to place what the feeling is.

Re: that last post, as we've been writing out more of [UNTITLED SLAYERVERSE PROJECT] I've been thinking a lot about the Vibes and what fantasies the story fulfills. What started out as a straight up erotic horror story has taken a decidedly gothic romantic turn (not mad about it) and it's been really interesting looking at it through pieces of media that have influenced us. There's another great post that I reblogged at one point about Labyrinth and the fantasies that that fulfills, and the role of a handsome but scary older male love interest in a coming of age setting. I've been thinking about it a lot also now having seen The Company of Wolves, which is the movie that prompted our current Madness.
Nikolae for me fulfills multiple roles, and it's very much both the Fantasy Lover and the embodiment of my fears about myself. He's a very intense and scary person who has very little self control and loves to hurt others, but he's learning control because he needs Katya so intensely that he'll do the thing that he was never willing to do for anyone else in his centuries of life just to have her. He's also the fantasy of the lover that knows what she needs, even when she doesn't. It's a rape fantasy, but as with a lot of rape fantasies it's about the plausible deniability when it comes to being forced to do things that are so filthy that it's impossible for you to articulate that you desperately want them without that burn of embarrassment consuming your soul. It's the fantasy of the lover that knows you better than you know yourself, and being set free by that corruption, that torment.
And Katya is the fantasy lover as well. She's unrelenting and cruel in many of the same ways, but in a different tone. She's clean and precise and is perfectly capable of being in charge. She is monstrous in a way that isn't gleeful like Nikolae, but is almost... (don't kill me, Cal) pragmatic. She knows what Nikolae needs, even if it's impossible for him to admit. The way that she gives him what he needs is through incredibly cruel and degrading physical and emotional violence, a complete unmaking of who he is. He's meant to be the one in control, the one who is the Lord, the Protector, the Keeper of his family's legacy -- things that he doesn't want, but was forced into. By unmaking him both physically and emotionally, he can be made into something free of those binding responsibilities.
The fantasy is freedom from repression, from gender roles, from their stations in life. As each other's fantasy lovers, they are both objects of envy and desire. They need to crawl into each other's skin and move them from the inside, both to possess and to become.
Anyway. The moral of [UNTITLED SLAYERVERSE PROJECT] is [LOUD STATIC NOISE]

by any chance will you ever return to the slayer/dcu verse stories u have on ao3? 👀👀👀😳😳 i know im going full clown im sorry
No clowns here!
(Or we both are, I honestly feel real bad about letting that series languish as long as it has!)
I have huge amounts of the future fics in the series outlined—like, here's all my docs for the current and future fics in the series, and every one of these docs has at least a couple hundred words in it, even if it's just "here's what I plan to write in this fic," and several of them have detailed chapter outlines and the occasional scene written:
I have a decent chunk of the next long Clark-centric bit written ("Phases") which takes place after the last published chapter of Welcome to the Mouth of Hell and before the unpublished epilogue.
(Which is part of why I haven't published the unpublished epilogue, even though it's all written and everything... But it has spoilers for Phases. The other part is that it introduces the actual Slayerverse crossover bit, and I kinda didn't want to commit to that until I had more of it written).
Unfortunately, there is some plotting in Phases that, for the audience to understand what's going on, relies on my actually finishing Bad Girls, the Gotham Sirens sidequel, which I have been really struggling to do.
I've also been working on finishing Couplet, which takes place before the last published chapter of WttMoH and might fill in enough of those holes that I could just leave Bad Girls unfinished and move on, but my writing momentum in the last several months—
(Which admittedly hasn't been a lot, given that I got laid off in February and have been spending a lot of spoons on job hunting and all that good stuff)
—has mostly been focused on finishing up the Our Flag Means Death WIPs that are, um. unfortunately also languishing. 😅💀
Honestly, I really appreciate the ask, I kinda tend to assume that no one is still interested in that series at this point since it's been on hiatus for so long! 😭 The more people bug me about it and reread the series, the more I'm likely to actually get the executive function to work on it more!
I am happy to give you a sneak peak at the outline for the way the series will go, if I ever finish it, or just answer questions, if you'd like! Hit me up on discord if so, I'm Internerdionality there as well!

Like for a one-liner starter. Multis specify which muse(s) you want one for. If you want a specific verse you can ask but I’ll leave it vague otherwise.

IF THE APOCALYPSE COMES, BEEP ME! : SLAYERVERSE
joined by @queencvbra, sam has a slayer verse, set in the world of buffy the vampire slayer and angel the series. a potential slayer since she was a child, recognized by mr. miyagi (a former watcher) and her father, sam was kept hidden from the Council as a potential but trained in everything a Slayer had in case the situation came where she was called. sam is the technique and experience when tory is the raw muscle and energy and desire. sam isn’t sure if she wants to do this calling that she had known she would have her entire life and is learning, now as a full blooded slayer if her destiny lays with the rest. she also has the honor of being trained by the legend herself, buffy summers.

Aww, they had a sleepover. 😊 And let's see how Tony likes being neglected for once. I just hope Spike doesn't betray Xander and just gives up on his plan to get a couple more notches on his Slayer belt. 😔

These Endless Days (Are Finally Ending in a Blaze)
Confessions of a Sinner
Following the events of Civil War, the Avengers are disbanded, scattered and in hiding - and not coping all that well. The rise of anti-superhuman feeling continues, and it's not only the Avengers who are feeling the effects. Steve Rogers and team are about to discover a whole other world, and with it comes what might be the biggest threat they've ever faced.
Steve has to answer to Sam about his nocturnal activities after he explains Maria’s phone call, which leaves Sam angry seeing as he’s been trying to keep the team together and Steve’s been largely distant.
“Vampires, right,” Scott yawns again, waving a sleepy hand in Steve’s general direction. “Tennis vampires, or-” He pauses, hand out-stretched towards the kitchen counter, frozen in the act of reaching for what passes for a clean mug these days. “Wait, what? Like Dracula? Bleh, bleh, bleh?” He mimes fangs as he asks the question, index fingers hovering at the sides of his mouth and his lips pulled back.
“Exactly like Dracula,” Steve answers, a faint tinge of excitement in his voice beginning to rise as he turns away from Sam to the shorter man. Sam exchanges a short glance with Barton, who shakes his head and reaches around Scott to switch the coffee machine on.
“With the cape?” Scott’s excitement rises with Steve’s own, his tiredness forgotten as Steve’s words start to sink in.
“No cape,” Steve admits.
“Oh,” Scott deflates slightly, before brightening again. “What about bats?”
“Not to interrupt this Hotel Transylvania nerd party,” Sam cuts across Scott’s hopeful question with a pointed look at them both. “But this conversation wasn’t actually about vampires.”

Continuing on my very first binge of Buffy the Vampire Slayer: I have finished season 2! I liked season 1, but I loved season 2. Until the end. If you also haven’t watched this show, beware of spoilers below.
This time I decided to write some thoughts about each episode of the season. It was quite the rollercoaster.
S2E1 When She Was Bad Okay, but did she have to be mean? I really disliked Buffy in this episode. Yeah, okay, her sexydance was hot. But she was downright cruel to Xander. That was not okay. I thought, though, that it was a very smart move opening the season getting back to Buffy’s vampire-slaying roots.
S2E2 Some Assembly Required I really enjoy the Frankenstein trope! (Not Frankenstein by Mary Shelley; that book bored me horribly! But it was a buddy read and I refused to DNF.) There was a serial killer in Dragon Age 2 that did the Frankenstein thing and it. was. horrifying!!! But also fascinating. I really dug the concept. And while I always liked Cordelia, she grew on me more and more with every episode this season.
S2E3 School Hard FINALLY, Spike has made his appearance! I like him a lot. Not in a shippy way with Buffy, but as his own character. Drusilla, I hate. I like her madness but she’s obnoxiously whiny. I do not like the way she pouts like a baby to get her way about things. I also hate Principal Snyder A LOT. Buffy’s mom was super cool in this episode, though. I was shocked when she took an ax to Spike!
S2E4 Inca Mummy Girl This episode was almost perfect! When I was a teenager I took 4 semesters of Spanish and loved it so much. I was very interested in the native peoples of South and Central America. The Maya were my favorite, but second were the Inca. I really liked the mummy princess who came back from the dead. Aside from having to drain the life from others to sustain herself, she was a really nice girl and easily made friends with everyone. And she wasn’t a fake friend or secretly evil; she seemed like a genuinely good person who didn’t want to do what she had to do to survive. So, to me, it seemed that Buffy was so remorseless in taking her out. It made me sad.
S2E5 Reptile Boy I wasn’t the biggest fan of this episode. I really do not get the whole Illuminati thing and I didn’t like how rapey it all seemed, with the frat boys drugging girls. It gave me a yucky feeling. I could have lived without seeing this one.
S2E6 Halloween Okay, this was absolutely my favorite episode up to this point. Willow really stood out to me. And the plot was so cool! Everyone turned into whatever they dressed up as for Halloween. That’s so fun! I liked finding out that Giles had a dark past, too. This episode was so cool.
S2E7 Lie to Me I really enjoyed this one, too! I didn’t like Buffy’s friend but the reasons for what he did became apparent. I really, really love the trope of vampire-worshipping cults/vampire wannabes/groupies. I just do!
S2E8 The Dark Age Again, nice to see Giles further developed as a character. It broke my heart that Jenny Calendar pushed him away, though. They were so cute together. The plot wasn’t my favorite and I’m not sure how I feel about the creep from Giles’s past. I have a feeling he’ll be back.
S2E9&10 What’s My Line (1&2)? The only thing I really liked in this episode was Angel ending up in a cage and also burned to death by the sun. I just love that kind of danger-drama! I also loved that since Buffy was technically dead for like three minutes, another slayer was granted slaying powers. That was so cool! But I’m not sure I liked Kendra. She was just mean all the time... A bit two-dimensional. And that accent kept jumping back and forth between Jamaican and Irish. lol The actress was beautiful but the character was not my cup of tea. I did think, though, that she improved by the end of the episode and would have been interesting to see grow in future episodes, but...well...you know. Cordelia was hilarious in this episode. And I KNEW IT. I KNEW she and Xander were going to make out because of how much they’d been fighting. Hahahaha!! I love it.
S2E11 Ted I gasped aloud with glee when I saw John Ritter! I adored John Ritter. Then I saw how evil he was and BLEH!! That Ted guy was the worst. lol Actually, I mostly hated Buffy’s mother in this episode. She literally walked in on Ted in her teenage daughter’s bedroom, actively choking her, and still blamed Buffy for “killing” him. I knew he was going to come back as something evil, but it still hurt to see Buffy so depressed, thinking she had murdered someone. Even if she had...he was in her bedroom, choking her! Ew, ew, ew! Kill him dead. lol I didn’t suspect he was going to be a robot, though. I really liked this episode! Sometimes I’m not sure Sarah Michelle Gellar is the best actress, but she was brilliant in this episode.
S2E12 Bad Eggs Um...eggs hatched into mutants, which latched onto humans and turned them into drones to do their mother’s bidding. Sooo gross. They were so hard to look at. Also, again, I saw this exact scenario in a video game (Breather of Fire II, which I realize is so ancient that I have really dated myself), and they even looked exactly the same. lol Still, this was pretty entertaining. If hard to watch. *shudder*
S2E13&14 Surprise/Innocence Interesting that Buffy is having some precognitive dreams. I liked the way they pieced together the Judge villain character and brought him to life. I am a hardcore Buffy/Angel shipper (at this point) so them sleeping together melted my heart! But THEN--! No, no, no! I mean, I’d read a spoiler at some point that Angel was going to revert to the evil vampire ego Angelus at some point, but this was the worst possible time! Okay, actually I enjoyed that drama. But I also cried literal tears because it just hurt so bad! Loved Buffy getting her hands on a mini rocket launcher at the end to take care of the Judge, and I appreciated her kicking Angelus in the balls for what he did to her. At this point I was starting to pity Spike while enjoying the way Angelus was stealing his thunder. Still want Dru dead, though.
S2E15 Phases Okay, I admit I’m streaming a lot of these episodes while I’m at work, so I don’t necessarily have my eyes on the screen while I’m watching. But seriously, did I miss something? In this episode there’s a werewolf killing people. They discover Oz is a werewolf (which unfortunately I already knew was coming because I’m reading Kendare Blake’s new book, In Every Generation, and it’s loaded with spoilers), and everyone is just okay with that??? Was he or was he not murdering people? I know Angelus murdered one person, but not all of them, right? WHY DID BUFFY KILL THE CUTE INCAN MUMMY GIRL BUT NOT OZ THE MURDERING WEREWOLF? I do like Oz a lot, though. And I adore him with Willow. (Yes, I KNOW. But, for now, I like her with Oz.)
S2E16 Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered I like Oxford commas. I loved this episode. Hilarious! Okay, it was creepy when the adult women were coming onto teenage Xander, but the way Cordelia stood up to her friends and openly admitted Xander is her boyfriend? UGH! SO GOOD!! I love them!
S2E17 Passion I was really not okay after this episode. First I thought it was sweet Angelus sneaked into Buffy’s room in the middle of the night, sketched her sleeping portrait, and left it for her. But then he started doing it to her friends and it got creepy. And no, it wasn’t nice what he did to Willow’s fish, but...! That was a good kind of creepy. Who would think to do a thing like that?! What he did to Jenny was taking it too far, though. It absolutely broke my heart when he broke her neck. Poor Giles! Poor Jenny! I really loved her character. I was furious when it was revealed her family had a hand in Angel’s curse backfiring like it did and taking him away from Buffy, but her death left me shook.
S2E18 Killed by Death I liked this one. It’s nice to see a decent monster-of-the-week episode that involves a classic horror monster like death (or IT, if you will), rather than a stupid egg-laying tentacle monster or rapist Illuminati frat boys. I liked learning something new about Buffy’s background, too.
S2E19 I Only Have Eyes For You Sometimes...I’m a little bit into the student/teacher thing. In a fictional way, not in real life. I thought this story was well-done, and in the end, the way Buffy and Angel became possessed by the dead lovers and reenacted their final moments, and gave the ghosts closure? Oomph. Heartwrenching.
S2E20 Go Fish I loved this episode! I think in part because Xander really got a chance to shine, and Cordelia’s feelings for him were proven to run more than skin-deep. The skin-peeling thing was gross but cool, and I liked how the coach was administering DNA-altering drugs through the sauna. Just really interesting plotting!
S2E21&22 Becoming 1&2 So this is why people love Spike. I liked him at first but he just let Angelus beat him down to a pitiful pulp that I lost interest. I loved him in the season finale, though I wonder why he showed a few shreds of humanity if he has no soul. Still don’t ship him with Buffy. lol But I hate Dru and am very disappointed she didn’t die by the end of this! Poor Giles getting tortured, but the way Dru impersonated Jenny Calendar to mess with his heart was too far! She’s gotta die. I am furious they killed Kendra off. She could have been an excellent character if she’d had time to grow and build bonds with the other members of the Scooby Gang. The ending to this serious absolutely killed me. Finally, it appears Willow is a witch! But after she returned Angel’s soul, Buffy sealed him away. I guess she was prepared for being without him, after all the angst this season, but...man. That just broke my heart for her. And for me. lol That was my favorite ship since the moment it began between them. I know he comes back (saw the poster for season 3, and I know he has his own show that I’ve been recommended to watch concurrently with season 4), but WHY COULDN’T THEY JUST BE HAPPY!
Thanks for your interest in my opinions if you actually read this. lol These are just my Buffy-noob thoughts at this point in the show. Please don’t spoil anything for me in the comments. I already know about some major events but I do not know everything and I don’t want to in advance!
