#third meteor

[jeonstellate]

Girl the ghost of Monza was beautiful, post everything I will enjoy every part of it, it was so cute I love it. We need Kimi's perspective I just have the feeling that would be wholesome or hilarious no in between. I love you keep posting please. 👉👈 I gift you this photo of my baby as a Offering to get more things.

omg hello!! (⁀ᗢ⁀)

first, thank you so much! i honestly didn’t expect you guys to enjoy the ghost of monza as much as i did writing it!

as i’ve mentioned on the previous ask, i am easily persuaded, so thank you for confirming that at least one person wants to read kimi’s perspective <3

second, your baby is so cute!! I WANNA SQUISH. please have this excerpt from the current draft of kimi’s pov as a token of my appreciation:

As far as Kimi’s aware, based on the reports he has gotten from both Sebastian and Fernando, there are four people in the current grid that know about [first name]’s existence.

Lance and Esteban are the only ones who recognize her as Sebastian and Fernando’s shared niece. (He doesn’t know how the two younger drivers think that happened, and he doesn’t really care to find out.) Charles and Carlos, on the other hand, are the only ones who know of her parentage. (Apparently, Charles was there when she sprinted from the Alpine motorhome to the garages where her uncles were. He had to tell someone to relieve himself of the shock, and his teammate had been the best choice.) The rest of the grid haven’t heard of a [first name], much less a [first name] Räikkönen.

[i am an excited oversharer, so even wo a bribe i will literally tell y’all tidbits abt a character/a work. just shoot me an ask, fr.]

[fatedroses]

And some days, I just wish you wouldn't look at me at all.

Your name is the WISTFUL VENTURER and you have been integrating yourself into the company of the heroes quite well. In the weeks since you asked the hero Kanaya to fix your Rag of Souls, you have been able to relax into your work on the meteor. It is comforting, to take emptied cans and other discarded materials and create a new world out of them. The heroes seem to agree, as several of them have spent a fair amount of time working on Can Town alongside you.

For today, you work alone. Though, given the area you are working on, maybe that is not a bad thing. As you step back to see it from a distance, you can’t help but notice that the courthouse is made up of primarily golden-yellow cans.

The heroes would not understand the significance of this, you do not think. Would not understand why these three buildings are so central to the town you are developing. You do not think they would insist on changing the layout, as they have thus far been very respectful of Can Town as your project, but they would not understand the details of it all.

---

Or, in which the Wistful Venturer and the hero Terezi have a conversation about Can Town's justice system.

Title from 'Theseus' by The Oh Hellos

I am but a measly 2:00:15 into the genre-defining "Riku is Gay" video, but like. Damn, Tennelle Flowers is a cinematic genius. I've remained so thoroughly enthralled by the tasteful spacing of audio commentary, clips from the games, and excerpts from the novels/writer interviews that I've hardly even noticed the time passing. What is this video laced with, man- I love video essays, but usually I have to rewind a gazillion times due to my attention slipping against my will.

That collage of comparison clips from KH2 Beast's arc and Riku's KH1-KH2 arc is killing me, man. Ever wish you could tattoo a part of a video to your forehead? Apparently, now I do.

is there gonna be a second part to the ghost of monza? Cause girl im here for it

hi anon! thank you for loving the ghost of monza <3

i’m (un)fortunately easily swayed and, due to the warm reception to it, i’m actually in the process of mapping a second part! :]

i also have a “bonus” partly written as a thank you gift, but i’m a little unsure if you guys will like to see a bit of kimi’s pov on daughter!reader’s paddock shenanigans. feel free to let me know your thoughts on that, ‘cause i’m thinking about making the actual sequel as the gift instead.

Thank you! I figured I would ask I've been wanting to for a while. What about the recent ones? Like Ode to Gallantry, A Deadly Secret etc. Not just those but ones in general that got adapted and aren't well known. I'll try youtube but not sure how much that will work out since youtube search isn't as good as it used to be. I appreciate you responding to me absolutely going to be watching this new series that came out today.

Hi nonny!

I think (as far as I know) we've been in a bit of a Jin Yong drought (except for Side Story of the Fox Volant 2022) from two years ago. I'm definitely much more a childhood fan of the 80s/90s tvb versions, and I followed the 00s versions of many of them, but admittedly fell off/didn't watch most of the 2010s versions of dramas except for LOCH 2017 (which is on youtube, iqiyi, and dailymotion iirc) so I can't really opine on the 2010s Jin Yong adaptations much.

I think in my experience youtube in the past year or so is that it has worked with the correct keywords more or less, though it helps to speak/read chinese, and there might be better resources for the CN versions than the ENG sub versions...

Overall :/ I'm not sure how helpful I can be in this regard, I think the lesser known novels have not been very popularly adapted in the recent decades and only the big five/big six keep getting remakes. But hopefully people explore the less well known novels at some point too because honestly I would so love to see more of them, as well as more Gu Long film/tv adaptations, that would be spectacular.

:D I'm glad you like my responses though! I've had a lot of fun responding to these!

"Another damn Super."

Shotgun Sally had had her fill of fighting superheroes. Henching used to be easy. Crack some safes, intimidate some people, stand guard at some deals. It's the only skillset she's ever had, and she was happy doing it. She had no interest in moving up - too much paperwork and headache - and going straight was impossible with her record. No, henching was where it's at. Or it used to be. Until those meteor storms a few years ago. People getting superpowers from the radiation. Started wearing costumes. Ridiculous. Comic book stuff. Job hadn't been the same since.

Intel came in. Sally answered the phone, writing down all the info in her notebook as usual. New hero. Contact said she goes by "Miss Fire." Left a calling card, apparently? Stupid name. Basic. Probably young, unsponsored. Hasn't been caught on camera yet, but apparently some deals went bad. Bodies at the scene had third degree burns on their hands and faces. Not one of those no-killers, this one. The name made her easy to figure out. Typical energy projection hero, probably has flamethrower breath or shoots fireballs. You hear it all the time, kid gets some flashy powers, gets full of herself, decides to be a crime fighter. Nobody ever trains the Supers to care about human life. Sally'd never had a reason to kill anybody in her work. Some rounds at the feet usually scares people into compliance. At most she'd take a few teeth or break some bones, but she'd never killed. What was their excuse?

Sally was tense. The contact was late. Deal was supposed to be done by now. That meant something was up. But it wasn't her decision whether they pulled out or not, that was up to the boss. She was watching a rat eat a pizza. Then she heard it. Gunfire, sounds of burning and screaming. "We got a Super!" A nod from the boss, and Sally was off.

Sally darted around a corner. There she was. The kid wasn't exactly what she was expecting. Usually these flashy types are dressed in spandex, or wearing heels (ridiculous), but this one was wearing simple boots and a parka. What confused Sally most of all was the lack of any glowing. Usually with these energy projection heroes you could tell what bodypart their powers came from by a residual glow, especially if they'd used their powers recently. Nothing around the throat or the hands.... In fact, her hands weren't even out. They were in her pockets. She looked totally relaxed. Was this not the hero?

Sally leveled her shotgun. She was about twenty paces away. Standard procedure with heroes was to keep your distance, in case they have melee powers. But she was more than close enough to turn the girl into a cheese grater if need be. She had to find out if this was the hero or not. Sally always preferred the direct approach. "Miss Fire, I presume?"

"That's me," the girl replied. Her face was blank. "You don't wanna be pointing that thing at me."

The girl's candor was annoying. "I believe I do. See I've been hearing about you hurting my people. I can't have that."

"They shot first. It wasn't on me."

"I'm gonna give you one chance to get out of here. It's past your bedtime."

"Make me."

Alright, that was enough talking. Sally couldn't tell if this kid had powers or what, but there was only one way to find out. Sally switched her shotgun to a low-spread mode and aimed between the girl's feet. If this wasn't the Super, this would scare her off. If she IS the Super... well, whatever happens happens.

Sally almost missed it. In a swift motion, the girl took her hands out of her pockets and opened both at Sally as if to reach out to her. Sally's reflexes kicked in, throwing herself to the ground to dodge the oncoming fireball or laser beam or whatever it was. But nothing came. The girl was just standing there, with her arms out. She looked like an idiot. Sally got up. "Of all the... what the hell do you think you're doing? I could've shot you."

The girl seemed surprised that she hadn't. She looked scared. "Usually they do by now..." she whimpered. She suddenly turned around and started running in the other direction. Sally was stunned. She was about to chase after her, but then she heard a noise she didn't like. Her gun. It was hissing at her. In fact, it was glowing. Alarmed, Sally threw the shotgun away from her as fast as she could. As it collided with the ground, it exploded into a ball of purple and blue flames.

Sally sat on the ground, watching the smoking remains of her favorite gun. She took her notebook out, and flipped to the info about the new hero. She crossed out "Miss Fire" and wrote "Misfire" under it.

"I hate Supers."
