He folded his arms so funny that I wanted to think of something to go with it
Create cool summer treats for your vampire with this one neat trick

Chapter 14 - Reunions! As you might have guessed from the title, some familiar faces are finally coming back...
And we’re off! Next story is up on AO3, and updates should come at least once every ten days as with previous (I just realised I’m working off a tenday-based schedule, this was not intentional), and I will try to post here in case of a delay.

Going to be a slight delay on the next chapter, I'm afraid- I'd had something of a light headache the past few days that's made it difficult to focus on things, and I haven't been sleeping too well, so I'm aiming for the 30th of this month instead- hopefully, I should feel better by then.
And, hopefully, there shouldn't be egregious delays moving forward- after the next chapter we will be moving firmly out of the set-up period and into the proper meat, which should, fingers crossed, excite me enough to write to power through any body pain distractions.
Baldurs gate isn’t a dnd game it’s a really really really hard dress up game
having an oc you havent drawn / written about publicly yet that only exist as a concept is so funny. i have special access to this limited edition guy from my brain
characters have to be a little bit awful in ways that you cant defend. its good for the ecosystem. your honor he did do that. He did in fact do that
Rules: share the first lines of ten of your latest fanfics (or up to if you have less!) & tag 10 people.
Thank you for the tag, @terezis! All my published fics are almost-entirely centred around Turmeric's tapdole disaster journey so I will also have to dip into some unpublished stuff, but here we go-
1. More Graves to Dig (BG3)
It starts in the House of Healing.
(Succinct, that one.)
2. Exhuming the Past (BG3)
“We agreed you would remain within-”
3. Whistle Past the Graveyard (BG3)
It's a relief, Shadowheart realises, to work in daylight again.
4. Wings Outstretched (Talons Extended) (BG3)
As unfortunate as it is for Ulder, Wyrm's Rock Fortress is the best place to regroup after the fall of the Absolute, and the tower – the former-Archduke Gortash's quarters – the most suitable location to organise the efforts.
(Bit of a run-on, here. You can really tell I've started to lean into endless dashes as punctuation since the beginning of the series.)
5. Moments Between (BG3)
“I really do think I preferred staying in ignorance, darling, I don't know why you had to point out that this place is actually some ghastly shithole.”
6. White Rooms with Red Floors (Firefly - a really old one from way back in the day that I'm still not sure why I wrote, and I'm too afraid to reread past the first line in the fear it won't hold up. I do still have a fondness for the title though.)
Simon remembers the exact moment he realised the Academy wasn't an academy.
Okay, here's where we get into random work-in-progress stuff that will probably never see the light of publishing day anyway but oh, well.
7. You can now use the workshop at Oberland Station (Fallout 4)
The slow ticking of a Geiger counter rouses Preston from his peaceful sleep, on a mattress that doesn't make his back ache, in clothes not weighed down by weeks worth of grime- in a place that finally, for the first time in a very long time, makes him happy to be waking.
8. Rat Sucker (Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines)
There's nothing like the smell of a Nosferatu – the pungent aroma of sewer drain mixed with the all the revolting fragrance of a festering sore – which, unfortunately, Therese knows all too well.
It's quite clear with all these in a row that I try to introduce the perspective character within the first line - unless it starts with dialogue I guess - but I do like to make it clear who we're with and who we're following as soon as possible.
I don't think I can think of ten whole people to tag, but @fandang1, you might like a go!
writing really is just googling synonyms. that's it. just a constant carousel of "I used this word two paragraphs ago, what is another word for this word"
I write BG3 fanfic about having a bad time and learning to carry on anyway! It's good fun! And also devastating!
