A Dark Alternative: Chapter 45

Summary: In a world where the border between Xadia and the human lands never truly existed, humans and elves live along side each other, but not together. Years ago, Callum made an unlikely friend, one he thought long lost to time.

By chance, their paths cross again, but considering how much they’ve both changed, is it possible to rekindle their friendship?

Or have their differences become too much to overcome?

Pairing: Rayla/Callum

Rating: Mature

Locks clicked and before she was ready, the door swung open revealing a human woman. A few years older than Rayla herself, she looked impatient, her lip curling a fraction as her eyes moved over Rayla’s face, seeming to linger on her markings.

“Yes?” she asked impatiently.

Rayla swallowed, her mouth dry. “I’m here to trade.”

The woman’s eyebrow raised a fraction, and she looked Rayla over, likely noting her lack of any visible items to trade. “Upstairs?”

Averting her eyes, Rayla nodded.

Without further word, the woman stepped back, glancing down the street as she let Rayla in, and then locked the door behind her.

Grunting, she indicated Rayla follow her. They both trudged up the stairs, Rayla’s eyes on the floor the entire time.

“Keres, got one here for you.” The woman pulled back the curtain to the donation room, stepping back to let Rayla in.

Keres was reclined in the corner, smoking a pipe. Pungent smoke filled the air, doing nothing for Rayla’s nerves.

“Thank you, Midge,” Keres smiled, his eyes glinting like a cat spying a cornered mouse. “If it isn’t my favourite Moonshadow.”

Drawn before S5 aired, 2023 OCEAN themed rayllum spideykiss (there’s ones from 2020-2022 on my blog, I’ll get them added to the [rayllum spideykiss] tag). I was imagining this mid-battle smooch, POTC style

I’m in Europe and had stuff to do today, so am just now getting to watch S5, so I’m just quickly yeeting this before 1) it’s refuted by S5 in my head and 2) I get distracted for the foreseeable future

S5 needed more jammies. Let those kids be comfy, not lying down to sleep on top of the covers in full armor and boots 😭

About Callum’s nightshirt… listen, S5 had so many Callum-Viren parallels, it had to be done. I maintain he’s pulling it off!

There’s a few I haven’t posted yet, so don’t think you’re crazy if there’s one you’ve never seen and can’t find. These are all in the [#numpty art tag] (or will be) or might be easier to find on my instagram @numptypylon

once you remember that you are not in fact catholic and do not actually have to confess your sins all the time things will get better for you. kill the part of you that wants to go into some strangers inbox and tell them why you don’t listen to rap.

Writing Bloodthirsty, my process:

NSFW and spoilers below…

Writing Me: So, the kinky vampire sex is to show they're really into the kinky vampire sex

Editing Me: Yep, that's the fic

Writing Me: But then the soft, loving sex the next morning is to show that it's not all about kinky vampire sex.

Editing me: Gotch ya... stepping back though... the bathing each other after the kinky vampire sex?

Writing me: That to show non-sexual intimacy

Editing Me: Okay... that makes sense... except it looks like the vibe is tending towards them also having sex during that?

Writing Me: That's coz sometimes they just get horny.

Editing Me: Uh huh... and this is a oneshot, you say?

Writing Me: Yes. A oneshot.
