Asking About The Plot. Asking About The Plot. Asking About The Plot.

asking about the plot. asking about the plot. asking about the plot.

(In reference to this ask)

This is the part where I would drop a snippet. If i had one. But since I don't, you just get my snarky explanation.

So. The geopolitical situation:

Yes we have to start with the geopolitical situation. That's how you know this AU is fun.

It's not too different from PoMo (can you tell I put all my Sylvaire Kingdom thoughts in that story because I haven't written this one yet?) Fallinel and Sylvaire have tense relations, but hey, there's a permanent diplomatic mission there, and the Abernant girls get along with the heir well enough that some people think Riz is going to marry one of them. Relations with Highcourt aren't amazing either because Pok & Sklonda (and Sylvaire) as a whole are 'godless,' but there are a lot of Helioic missionaries, which goes a way to maintain those relationships. And they have a very close relationship with Solace. Similar values, and Sylvaire works hard to become a Technological Power, which means they can actually trade high-tech goods with Solace. And Sylvaire has a lot of natural resources, which also make them good to have a good relationship with.

All this to say, for a young nation (the bulk of this story takes place when the Bad Kids are, like, 19/20. A little older and more mature but still Young, so Sylvaire is, like, 16/17 years old) Sylvaire is doing very, very well. Better than anyone anticipates.

Until Pok is assassinated by Fallinel, that is.

Cue the declarations of war, from Sylvaire and Solace both. The Abernants get the hell out of dodge but abandon their daughters to do so. Luckily, Sklonda's reasonable, they can stay free so long as they use their considerable magical talent for the war effort. Fig enlists against her mom's wishes, Gorgug does too but shifts to the engineering corps when an injury puts him out of commission. Fabian's captaining a naval ship, Kristen's working as a field healer, and Riz...

Riz is grieving and angry and he hates Fallinel. But. There's something more going on here, he knows it.

He just needs to figure out what it is.

First art of 2025 and it's me getting sappy as FUCK about Riz and Penny.

Been watching the campaign of the Seven Maidens while at my GF's place over New Years. The more I see Penny the more i just want to see her and Riz interacting, because so much about his worry over her makes perfect sense once i see her fleshed out character.

You KNOW that boy was absorbing her personality, these little anxiety rogues are good friends and I like to think she says he's not allowed to grow any bigger because she always wants to be able to pick him up and swing him around (And she's one of the very few people he likes to picked up and swung around by).

Extremely good sappy energy, your honour i love them.

You get clean line and underlined version cause @dullgecko liked the coloured underlines

Nobody on the left ever wants to hear this, but a large part of the reason we keep losing elections is that we have chased away moderates and constantly act like their very presence is poison. There’s a persistent delusion on the left that we’re some kind of silent majority and it’s just not true. We’re not a large group, and we do need to loop someone else in if we ever want to form any kind of government at all. Elections are not protest movements for a reason. They are in fact a terrible time for such a thing. Especially in a multi-party system where there is always another potential choice just around the corner and nobody is obligated to buy what you’re selling, no matter how convinced you are the only moral option is what you believe. If you want to convert someone to the cause it has to happen long before that. And if you can’t, but they are willing to stand with you this time? Then that’s gonna have to be good enough. They don’t have to be your best friend. They don’t have to be your comrade.

I saw a woman on twitter who’d just joined the Democratic Socialists of America talking about how if she hadn’t gone to an in person meeting she never, ever would have done it because their online presence fucking sucks, filled with frothing keyboard warriors constantly screaming about guillotines and violence and brutal revolution. And then she went to a meeting and it was all sensible, helpful people doing things like paying off parking tickets for those in need or arranging for necessities like food or rent to be covered. I think about this a lot, how bad the left’s advertising is. We can’t spit contempt in everyone’s face and then expect their help when the time comes. That’s not how human nature works. And yes, the internet has definitely made this phenomenon worse.

I don’t care about the revolution. The revolution does not exist. I care about getting useful politicians into a position where they might help somebody. I care about practicality. All these glorious and correct ideas mean dick shit if nobody ever gets to actually use them.

My back and forth writings with @dullgecko have only confirmed what I knew in my heart and that is that Fabian Aramais Seacaster was destined to be YA paranormal romance heroine. He wasn't meant to be in these streets getting tormented by Chungledown Bim and Sexy Rats.

He was meant to be fought over by werewolves and vampires after finding out that his absent mother was an Elf and he has an ancient magic. He was meant to be whisked away by a Fey Prince and be held in his enchanted castle. He was meant to attend a remote boarding school that has a secret population of students that are fallen angels.

He has white hair, silver eyes, depression, and pronouns COME ON!
