Behold, the six "unique" roles of Stonevale, one of the colonies in Fading Hollow.
I've been thinking about this setting a lot lately, including all the characters. Honestly, I want to make every cat individual under the hood, but that is slowly driving me mad. For now, here are six of them:
Chief Ra'shira - the leader. Aggressive, irritable, but fiercely loyal to kith and kin.
Deputy Haystalk - her second in command and gentle younger brother. He has spent the majority of his adulthood smoothing over the trouble his sister's temper causes
Raven, the Seer - religious leader and second eldest cat in the colony. A grumpy bastard for the ages. The only company he enjoys is Mera and his sister, Blueshell
Mera Yari-tsa - a lifelong queen who has had a paw in raising every litter in the past 50 moons, earning her great respect. The most knowledgeable midwife in the hollow
Acorn - a senior messenger. He won't retire until his former apprentice, Puff, is ready to mentor another cat to take his place
Puff - a young messenger. He seems empty headed and the wrong body type for his position, but he has a fantastic memory and a knack for social situations

ITS YOU! YOU HAVE RANDOMLY APPEARED IN ME FEED, HII!
I am fully caught up on Redeath and Search Through The Stars, and im sad because not only is this fic almost over, but another unrelated long-shot fic I’ve been reading for a while is ALSO almost over. Send help I don’t know what im going to do with my life. Find more fics I guess.
aww this is such a sweet message to wake up to. and hey don't cry cos it's over smile cos it happened or whatever the quote is lmao <3
if it's any consolation, after 4 years spent in this au, i'm also at a bit of a loss on what to do now XD (probably i should catch up on rrr, which i'm guessing is the other fic you're talking about lol)
i'm gonna try to do some more original stuff, though, so feel free to stick around for more silly gay people fucking around and finding out XD

Flash Fiction Month 2024: Week Four (And a Half)
It's officially August! Somehow!!! Too quickly, in my opinion!! But it does mean I've got one last round of stories to share!
Day 22: Past Keeping You Up
[Jodie's pretty sure she didn't order anything to begin with, but she definitely didn't ask for this. Warnings for allusions to a messy family situation (though not the worst from this month by far) and questionable resulting coping mechanisms.]
Day 23: In Shed
[The top review for a totally normal python plushie. Warnings for ominous snakes and potential child endangerment.]
Day 24: Overstimulated
[Now seems like the right time for some good old-fashioned autistic elopement. Warnings for sensory overload and a whole lot of internalized ableism baggage surrounding it on behalf of the narrator.]
Day 25: Looking for God?
[The ultimate after. Possible apocalypse warning? Pretty vague, though.]
Day 26: Not-Siblings Not-Squabbling
[New adventuring party, assemble! Warning for a technical animal death (a cat catches a fish), but nothing major.]
Day 27: Problem Players
[You arrive at the door to the deepest vault, locked and guarded vigilantly. What do you do? Warnings for some violence and fire and such, as one might expect from D&D, as well as the sort of people you should probably never play D&D with.]
Day 28: Free 1/2 Sandwich
[One half for each dragon... No warnings.]
Day 29: Transformative
[It's an act of corruption, her professors say. Warnings for transphobia, if mostly in passing.]
Day 30: Generative Destruction
[We have GOT to get rid of this thieving AI. Warnings for a dystopic setting, emphasis on the capitalism, and some technical minor character death.]
Day 31: Right On Time
[Ending in the same place we began! Warnings for some ocean-themed horror, and also ocean-themed body horror.]
And that's the lot of them! Had a lot of fun this year! And my fiddling with them might not even be over yet; I'm hoping to migrate my writing to AO3 and ditch the dying DA, so we'll see how that goes! We'll also see how Art of August goes! At.... some point.... my whole arm decided to hate me today, so I'm gonna be playing catch-up right off the bat. Hooray...

The Amazing Punk-Spider
I redesigned another old spidersona of mine. In fact, this was my first spidersona ever! That's why they are the closest to a self insert (hence the new gender) out of any of my spider characters and also why they mean a lot to me personally.
↓↓↓old design under the cut↓↓↓
this one was one of the last times I drew the old design (May 2022)
And here's the first time I ever drew them. FunFact: It was also the first time ever I drew something digitally (on my phone) (2019)

15 and 32
15. Do you prefer writing one-shots or multi-chapter fics?
I tend to prefer writing one-shots! I love to read multi-chapter fics, but I always get so worried that I'll lose motivation and just, never come back to it :') My first fic on AO3 is loosely a multi-chapter, in the sense that I've left it open to return to someday, but haven't had any interest to pick it back up in years lol. There's something very punchy about one-shots as well - I have a pretty solid split between short and long one-shots, but it's so satisfying when I Finally have a long one finished!
I also like making connected one-shots, or sequential one-shots, but letting them stand on their own so?
32. What’s a fic you’d love to write, but probably never will?
I think I had a Vargas fic idea at one point that I so badly wanted to read but didn't want to write, and made some concept sketches and an outline for and everything lol - something with the Jake/Edgar/Scriabin dynamic ♥ I do know that someone made a missing scene-fic about Scriabin and Jake's first interaction that I've been quietly making eyes at - next time I'm into Vargas for sure 👀
As for love to write, hm... Probably this overly-convoluted Osmosis Jones NTR fic that I've had in my back pocket for way too long honestly lol - ever since I learned about netorare they were my first and only choice but it's so all-hurt-no-comfort and kinda dark and sad and while it sounds really fun, the self-consciousness monster in the back of my head is like "Really? The White Blood Cell Movie? For that?" lol
