The hint of a smile, or something more — a moment shared and recognized.

Surviving when they want us dead, so we can all paint a more beautiful world together. No closets, no cliques. That's what Cool means to me.

Two queer artists have a magical meet-cute at the flea market of their dreams. A surreal romance from beyond the veil of sleep, published during Pridefest 2025.

Loved nightmare on archer row 2! Why did wren decide not to use the resticted shelf?

That's wonderful to hear! I had a great time writing Archer Row 2, and I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

I've always imagined that the Restricted Shelf is physically isolated in some way, as a safety measure. Unless they came prepared for a fight (which they didn't, since it's a friendly get-together), Wren would have had to leave the theater, cross a Way, and return with their assets in tow. If they did that, Mr. Slasher Villain would either pursue them, or hunt the people remaining in his area of effect. Either way, Wren wouldn't want to leave their friends behind -- particularly when their "genre-savvy" attitude dictates that everything required to solve the problem is already there in the story.

[mxmasters]

can you share a little about the meaning behind the phrase “keep circulating the tapes”?

whistl_stahp: I'm really curious about that myself. steakshift: oh wow two related questions in a row. thank you anon! steakshift: uhh short version for people who don't care about MST3K: steakshift: there was once a TV show where the hosts watched bad movies. They had solid deals for broadcast but not for distribution, and home is where the fans are. steakshift: so instead of spending mad dosh on licensing, they put a message in the credits to encourage people to save and share with the fans who couldn't see it live. steakshift: "KEEP CIRCULATING THE TAPES". big block letters. steakshift: they took it out of the credits eventually but man I loved that shit. that's a punk rock, fuck-the-man attitude right there. whistl_stahp: "home taping is killing record industry profits"... steakshift: "we left this side blank so you could help". yeah!! informs my whole philosophy tbh. steakshift: we live in an information society but there's tons of bullshit barriers towards people actually GETTING the stuff they need. censors and paywalls and shit. steakshift: so, I help fix that. steakshift: I keep circulating the tapes.

"Yeah, hi. Are you the one responsible for the artifact Vanguard calls VNP-4784?" "W-what?"

In the post-Veil setting of No Return, most anomalous people don't have to hide. They're free to live and love... but they still have secrets. @nykacolaquantum2 shows us a Vanguard perspective on Mx. Wren Masterson's past sins, and offers us a glimpse of justice.

(Thank you so much for the gift! It's a real treat.)

New Vanguard up

My gift for @tsercele for placing in Paracon 2023.

Come to think of it, I'm not sure anything on the Restricted Shelf could've actually hurt that guy. Esther's a whiz with cognitohazards, but she couldn't brainhack him, so that part of the collection wouldn't do jack. We tossed him around, but he kept getting back up, so physical damage wasn't gonna cut it. (Can you even poison a dude with corn syrup for blood? Doubt it.)

I guess I could've imported some kind of plot device, but... that's got drawbacks. Big ones. Summon up a deus ex machina out of nowhere, there's gonna be narrative backlash. Consequences, quid pro quo, whatever you want to call it -- it sucks, and it sucks long-term. I prefer to make do with whatever I've got in a given scenario. Kinda like MacGuyver, except I fall on my ass a lot.
