"Your Highness," Caleb said softly, head bowing as he dropped to one knee.
The throne room fell deadly quiet. Caleb ignored the dozens of Revelry armed to the teeth, the weapons all trained on him. All he could see was the tiefling standing before him, wide eyed and almost terrified. All the words between them left unsaid.
"Caleb," Kingsley choked out, voice wrung raw and desperate.
It made Caleb's own heartbeat stutter, hearing his name fall like that from King's lips, the bare warmth and want of it.
"You're--you're here. You're alive--"
Caleb could not yet bear to look at him. He kept his head hung as Kingsley drew closer, the heel of his boots echoing on the stone floor. Counting each passing second with meticulous precision, heart beating in his chest to the tick of a perfect clock. Eins. Zwei. Drei--
At last the tiefling stood towering over him, still and silent.
A muttered curse, a hiss of breath. A warm hand held flush to Caleb's own skin, fingertips delicately tipping up his chin--a brush of soft lips, pressed to the crown of his forehead in a tender kiss.
He held his back straighter as he arched to his full height (though still considerably shorter than Caleb), composing himself in the role of Plank King once more.
"Leave us," King commanded. "I wish to speak with the mage alone."
Footsteps fell away as the King's guard all filed out of the throne room, leaving only the distant crash of tides in their wake. And then they were alone--just the Circus Man and Magic Man again, no titles or masks to stand between them. And when Kingsley reaches for him, his touch is just as Caleb remembered--

thank you @chiptrillino for tagging me in a wip game!
not quite sure what the rules are but based off of your AMAZING POST OF ART WIPS (check it out here yall chip is so talented) ive decided to just share some parts of my writing wips that i rlly like because i cannot draw whatsoever lmao
enjoy some lil snippets hehe
from heart don't stand a chance:
"Zuko couldn’t get over her eyes. She was looking past the camera towards the man who took it. Zuko could see clear as day the love she held for Sokka in her gaze.
It was a perfect moment that Sokka had captured. No wonder held it with him at all times. If someone had looked at Zuko like that, he’d never want to see anything again.
As he took in the photograph, Sokka sat next to him in silence. His hand was clutching the ring around his neck again in his fist, pressing it close to his mouth as he peered over Zuko’s shoulder to look. Zuko turned to him to compliment the picture and saw a sad fondness lingering in his eyes."
this is a scene i wrote a while ago thats gonna appear in a much later chapter. but yeah. more yue angst for you guys im so sorry.
from i love you (and that's all i really know):
"Mister Sokka," a little voice wishpered in his ear as he felt tiny pokes on his cheek, "Wake up Mister Sokka."
"Good morning to you too Izumi," Sokka responded wearily as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. He looked towards the little girl who was standing on her tippy toes to see over the edge of the bed and poke his face until he rose.
She smiled at him once she realized he was awake.
"Can we have pancakes?" She asked shyly, hiding her mouth just below the edge of the bed as she looked up at him with hopeful eyes.
That look was going to be dangerous for him later on, he could aready tell.
"Sure thing, Izumi, just let me sleep for five more minutes, mkay?" He asked as he shut his eyes again. He was exhausted from last nights events, and the sun had barely risen. How did Zuko do this?"
this is a scene from the next chapter of this fic. so much sokka and izumi bonding you guys are gonna explode hehehe.
from cherry (the mailee fic i wont shut up about that is now a whopping 19 pages):
"Mai never had to guess with Ty Lee. She always knew when Ty Lee was happy about something because she would use an obnoxious amount of exclamation points. She would send gifs of people or cartoons making outlandish expressions whenever she wanted to react to Mai’s text with a specific facial expression. Sometimes Ty Lee would even send voice memos whenever her thoughts became too long, or she got too excited about a story that her fingers couldn’t type as fast as she could speak."
hehe i love mailee.
from yours (the mailee sorority fic that i promise i did not forget about):
"Mai lifted her head off the pillow again and met Zuko’s eyes. She studied his impassive expression, trying to figure out if he was joking or not. He did seem like he missed Mai and Azula, so maybe he did really just want to catch up with them.
But Mai wasn’t going to give up a golden opportunity like this.
“Tell us everything about the boy toy as well and you’ve got yourself a deal,” Mai said.
Zuko rolled his eyes and sighed, “Ugh, fine. And his name is Sokka by the way.”
“Nuance. You also have to wake up Azula.”
“No chance in hell,” Zuko scoffed, “You’re the roommate and her fellow ‘pong princess,’ wake-up duty is all yours.”
“If she murders me, it’s your fault. She’s a bitch when she’s hungover.”
“Whatever you say, Mai,” Zuko grinned before returning back to his phone."
i have decided that zuko is a little shit for this fic and no one can stop me.
from Where'd All the Time Go? (the yuekka fic that i have severe writers block with that i also promis i have not forgotten about):
"“Sokka I really think you need to take a moment and-”
“I am fine Aang, I don’t have time for a feelings talk right now. Right now I need to find the fucking chief of this damn place.” His words came out harsher than he meant, but he didn’t have the time to dwell on that.
Before Sokka could run off again to continue his search, a hand grabbed his arm. One of Arnook’s advisors, Malina, had started dragging him towards the podium.
“Do you not realize how late you are for this Sokka? The ceremony was supposed to begin with your speech nearly an hour ago-” she hissed at him as she pulled him along through the crowd.
“Malina I’m sorry but I really need to speak with Arnook it is urgent-”
“This damn speech of yours is what’s urgent right now Sokka, you can speak with Arnook later but the guests are getting antsy so you need to give your speech right. Now.”
“But-”
“Now.”
Maline shoved Sokka towards the podium and suddenly all eyes were on him. Every guest in attendance had their focus solely on Sokka."
homeboy is stressed in this scene. things are slowly going to shit in this chapter. i promise i will update this before the end of the year. i swear. im so sorry.
from a currently untitled jetko/sukka boiling rock fic:
"“Oh good, you survived after all,” She said in a mocking tone.
Jet didn’t answer. He knew anything he said would be used against him. He didn’t know where he was. He didn’t know what was happening. But he would be damned if he showed that weakness in front of the fire nation.
“I was told you were more talkative than this,” the girl mused. There was something familiar about her, “my informants were very detailed when discussing your little teashop romance.”
I knew it. Jet snarled in his mind, That bastard betrayed me."
i want this fic to be a little darker but idk how good i am at writing darker fics because i love fluff and humor too much. this could be good angst practice for me.
from a toph and sokka fic that i wrote a while back to help me cope w some shit that i dont know if ill ever post:
"“Sokka? Are you still there?” Toph asked, the slightest hint of concern began to slip into their voice
“Tell me a story,” he was trembling. Despite all of his efforts to sound calm, he knew his voice came out trembling and scratchy and pathetic-
“Is everything okay? You don’t sound too hot,” Toph said through the phone.
Breathe, Sokka, breathe. You don’t want them to be worried, you just need to calm down.
“Please, Toph, I just,” he said through shaky breaths that weren’t nearly deep enough for him to be getting enough oxygen, “I just need a distraction. I just need to hear your voice okay?”"
nonbinary toph anyone?
from a 10 things i hate about you kataang and zukka au:
"“What? Something on my face?” the guy asked deadpanned. He rubbed at his scar as if he were wiping off a smudge of mustard, and Aang’s face went pale.
“Stop scaring the sophomores Zuko, this one’s new. He won’t get your… humor… just yet,” Ms. Wu said as she waved Aang off again.
“I’m hurt that you’d imply I’m not funny, Wu. I’m hilarious,” the senior, Zuko, said as he walked past Aang.
Aang let out a sigh of relief knowing that this Zuko guy didn’t seem all that offended by his awkwardness, and darted out of the room."
zuko is a little shit part 2. the amount of sarcasm i have dripping off of heath ledger zuko is glorious. let zuko be a little shit. i havent added to this in months but when i finish some of my other wips i cant wait to get back to this.
i have more wips and drafts saved but none of them have anything juicy or funny or interesting yet because all of them are like less than three pages so far
but yeah, heres a good chunk of sneaky peakys from my wips!
I hope you liked them!
anyone who wants to do this can totally go for it. imma tag @ambykinns @lumities and @flowers-inthepieshop (only if you all want too!!) because this was fun :)

all that was lost is revealed [ficlet]
Tumblr media
When Rey disappears the night before his ascension, newly crowned god of death Kylo Ren vows not to rest until he finds her once more.
But when he finally tracks her down three years later, everything pales in comparison to the sight of a dark-haired, freckle-faced baby right out of his most precious, secret dreams.
Just a few short months after I started writing Reylo fic, I found myself working on a Hades/Persephone-inspired piece that I have yet to complete to this very day. I’ll probably rewrite the whole thing when I finally get back to working on it but for now, here’s nature witch Rey introducing fearsome god Kylo Ren to their baby daughter.
Also available on AO3.
The child sleeps, blissfully unaware of Death himself looming over her.
She has his midnight hair and his ghostly skin, but the fates must have smiled upon her because she has her mother’s delicate features, no hint of his ears or nose at all. Her mother’s freckles, too, and he knows, somehow he just knows, that if she were to open her eyes they would be hazel, just like…
“Melinoe,” an achingly familiar voice whispers, and suddenly there she is.
Rey.
Rey three years older but no less beautiful, Rey now a stranger to him but still so dear, Rey the mother of his child leans against the doorway, arms loosely crossed around her waist and lips curved into a hesitant, barely-there smile. “I named her Melinoe,” she announces quietly, “after the child of Hades and Persephone, forever trapped between two worlds.”
“It’s beautiful,” he says carefully, watching her with wary eyes as she approaches him, “but such a heavy weight to bear for a child so young.” He would know. When his parents made the decision to burden him with the name of an old ally, they might as well have named him Atlas and fashioned an orb out of all the expectations heaped upon him, all the legacies entrusted to him. But with Melinoe it feels even worse somehow, less like the world on her shoulders and more like a noose around her neck, a self-fulfilling prophecy of doom and tragedy.
But Rey could never be that cruel. “She’s our child, yours and mine,” she tells him with a shrug, a true smile forming on her lips as she turns to the sleeping girl and uses the gentlest of movements to brush dark curls away from her perfect little face. Not that he’d had any lingering doubt, not that he’d needed the confirmation, but her words soothe him anyway, our child a balm to his soul after three years of yearning and dreaming and hurting. “That makes her both strong and stubborn enough to bear it.”
“Besides,” Rey murmurs, still with her back to him as she pulls Melinoe’s blanket up to her chin, “I thought it would be for the best to let her know exactly what she is, to raise her with as much knowledge and understanding of her true natures as possible.”
Kylo steps forward almost unthinkingly, drawn by a need to feel it for himself. “Then she is–?”
Rey turns to him. “Come here,” she beckons, holding out her hand as if he hasn’t dreamed of this very thing every night since the day she left him. When he finally takes it there’s no time to be overwhelmed, no time to delight in the rightness of their skin touching again, because almost instantly she’s guiding him towards Melinoe, towards his daughter, and he cannot even protest when Rey lets go of his hand because now it’s resting on Melinoe’s cheek, soft and rosy and–
“You feel it too, don’t you?”
And under the skin of his daughter’s cheek, within the blood running just beneath the surface, he feels it: life and death, peace and pain, growth and decay. For every bit of Rey’s nature magic that blooms in their daughter’s tiny body, a dark tendril of his own power rises to curl around it.
“What is it?” Kylo asks, equal measures horrified and awed. Of course any child of his would be tainted by darkness even at this age; of course any child of theirs would hold the capacity for everything within her little frame.
And yet she sleeps so soundly, so innocently, their child – their child, Kylo marvels once more, and brushes his thumb across her tiny cheek.
Her breath hitches, her little nose wrinkles, and then–
Melinoe gazes upon her father for the very first time, and everything – the years they’ve lost, the chasm between him and Rey, the turmoil that awaits them all – falls away.
She reaches for him, and Kylo Ren smiles for the first time in three years.
First of all: this might be the shortest thing I’ve ever posted. I did it, you guys - I wrote an actual ficlet-length ficlet!
But that’s probably because this is just a snippet. It might take a while for me to get around to writing the actual fic, but fear not. If you enjoyed this, rest assured that you’ll definitely get the full story sometime within the next three months or so.
Until then, thank you so much for reading and I hope you liked it. As always, please don’t hesitate to like/reblog/leave a comment.

This post is me replying to the lovely anons I got! But I didn't wanna spam anyone’s feed so it’s all down below in one mega post! Mwah x PS none of these are prompts, those would always be posted separately ;) so if you’re a prompter, just wait on me honeys i promise ill come through for you soon. 
1) @janetpie1951: “i would kill everyone for sugar baby Peter. With No remorse.” and “Secretary Peter? Absolutely fucking perfect.”
We are the same, my love. Me too. I love that softboi so much i would pull a tony and just break everyone’s leg if they so much as looked at him the wrong way. 
And thank you SO much, I was so scared no one would like the secretary Peter one because I found his character really hard to write as it was so OC, you know? So this put a huge smile on my face :)) x
2) I’m having mild social anxiety just typing this. I wanted to tell you how much I’ve been enjoying your writing. Especially the Mafia boss/sugar baby/bodyguard story line you’ve been posting. I can’t wait for the next part.
I cannot wait for Part 3, at the moment it’s just a few snippets because i need a few more ideas to tie it together, but i promise it’ll be up soon! And my precious thing, well done for typing it anyway!!! I know how you feel, but this made my day so thank you so much sugar xx
3) I wish I was brave enough to share my writing like you do. I'm really scared people will think I'm stupid or that I suck. I'm too shy to share much 🙈 How can someone get over that kind of fear?
Dude, if I could take you back to the first fic I ever wrote- I think it was Dramione? Or H2O, it was seriously just awful like wow oh my god. But the thing was- people were so nice. And dude, it was shit. I promise you, it really was. What i’m saying is- you are your own harshest critic, and that’s super cliche but it’s true. No one will judge your work the way you do. And the feeling when people are nice- oh god, it just- it’s worth the risk. No one is going to think youre stupid or you suck because you had the fucking moxie to create something in the first place. I know it’s hard to take that first leap- I was too young to truly comprehend how scary it was when I did it, but I know you can get there. Sometimes it’s nicest starting in a tiny little fandom because everyone is so supportive and you all know each other and you can build confidence that way- saying that, the starker fandom is by far the most supportive one i’ve ever been in (teen wolf a close second, but there can be some mean anons there who for some reason are obsessed with scott??? like i like him, but let’s chill out, sorry off topic) and there will be haters, but fuck them. I, personally, would read anything you wrote and i would never have anything negative to say. I might be like “dude could you put stuff into paragraphs cuz it’s hard to read a block of text on my phone” but that’s it- that’s the worst thing i would ever say. i’d be too busy being grateful that you’d written some glorious content.
It’s scary, my gorgeous darling, but you can get there. The more fic you read, the more confident you get, and soon you’ll get more confident in YOU. As long as YOU like your writing (which is one of the hardest things ever) it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks. 
that being said, nothing wrong with shyness. It’s okay to keep it to yourself, sometimes it’s a private thing. Maybe tease us with a few snippets and when we all go insane and beg you for more, maybe then you’ll be encouraged ;) 
4) OML I looooove that you link the other chapters in your series. It's awesome. Keep up the great work! I love your stories ❤️
Dude, thank you!!!! It’s super annoying to do but i always do it because i wish other users did it because it’s so hard scrolling through their whole blog to find a part 2 so thank you so much for appreciating it hahaha it honestly made my day. 
5) Holy FUCK that mafia boss with sugar baby peter is my absolute favorite thing I have ever read in my existence. Thank you so much for writing it and blessing everyone who reads it 💕💕
Yeah you’re just the best and sweetest thing ever. You just are. End of. 
6) I just spent the last several hours going through the starker tag on your blog and hot diggity damn are you good at writing these two.
that is one of the best ways to spend the day and I'm am so honoured you picked mine like ahhhhh i could dance and blush forever, thank you so much. 
7) your mafia tonypetersteve was so good i just!!! I DONT HAVE WORDS it made me so emotional and it was perfect and just uGHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh thank you for writing it so muchhhhh - { holographic-starker }
dude- dude- dude, you are so lovely. THANK YOU FOR READING IT 
8) Oh wow, your Mafia Boss Tony x Sugar Baby Peter x Bodyguard Steve fic is sooo amazing! 😱❤ The atmosphere, the tension, I can't even say what's my favourite part, everything is just so damn perfect and sexy! ❤❤
oh my god this is a tirade of compliments and I'm honest to god sobbing, seriously dude the fact that you read it and liked it is- it’s the best feeling ever i can’t even describe it to you.  
9) Ummmmmmm excuse me while I die in a corner because of your mafia au 🤤
have i mentioned that i don’t deserve you guys? I honestly don’t. 
10) [this is on the secretary au] THAT TOOK A TURN REAL FAST ((it was so good))
thank you so fucking much honestly i am awed, this was so worth putting off essays to do 
11) @biscuitsonofa  NEED MORE SECRETARY PETER BOSS TONY PLEASE IM D Y I N G OVER HERE I LOVE YOU
oh my god you are so amazing i can’t even just wow. If i ever came up with an idea i’d love to continue it for you, gorgeous. 
12) your a/b/o au with tony/harley/peter was so great!! i would love a part 2❣️
same as above honey in 11, if i ever develop a decent imagination, i definitely will. thank you so much for taking the time to make my whole day. 
13) @pretty-well-funded I binged through Super Size Me at 2am and I am fucking in love with it
Well I’m in love with you, so there. And please don’t hate me over how slack i’ve been with that fic, i started it before i made this side blog and now this sideblog has taken over my whole life but i promise i will get back to it because you guys are so supportive and brilliant and wow 
14) @hoe4parker You're literally one of my favorite writers and I'm currently writing a trans!Peter fic and if you're cool with writing one, you could write one too? I love trans!Peter and new content is always fabulous and I really really love your writing
You are beyond the sweetest thing in the whole world. Just wow. Just thank you. Actually because of this ask i did a bunch of research into how to write trans characters and asked a lot of other users for advice, but i just don’t think i can do it justice at this stage :(( i’ve never done it before and i don’t feel i know quite enough about it. I love reading trans peter fics and i can’t wait for yours, but as for me, i think i need to build up my talent in that area. Who knows, maybe one day? ;) 
15) @starkersbitch Heyyy there! Uh I somehow wanted to tell you that on here rather than on ao3, but I am OBSESSED with your fic "Super Size Me". The characterisation? AMAZING. The smut? I'm living. Your general writing style? Love it. Keep up your good work, love!
yeah i remember getting this, it put the biggest smile on my face ever like just wow thank you so goddamn much. like i said in 13, don’t hate me. I will get back to it gorgeous, i promise!!!! be patient with me, like timberlake says in bad teacher “i think I'm worth the wait” snort goddamn, I'm totally not but you’re a darling and i love you seriously, this encouragement is what makes this fandom the best one ever.
