I firmly believe that every conflict in X-men can be solved by polyamory and gay sex

If any of y’all didn’t know, there’s a free online library, aka

Honestly I should talk about the ace experience more. I don’t see enough. Like–obviously it’s dehumanizing to be repeatedly compared to robots or aliens but uh…sometimes it feels like that?? 

My husband will get all horny while I’m, I don’t know, changing out of sweaty gardening clothes. And I’ll be like, “But we have to make lunch?? I stink? Now is not a good time?? Logic?” And clearly it’s not about logic to him. He is experiencing the entire scenario very differently. And I’m here like, 

Or the times where you realize that like, having an actual physiological reaction to attractive people is not some enculturated metaphor, and people are actually doing that all around you all the time, and you’re like, Ah, clearly my studies of human culture have been incomplete. I have missed a critical psychosocial component. Many things now appear in a different light. *takes notes on holopad*

Ruins of Dawn Chapter 12

Gods, what had Ed been thinking, kissing Ben? That was a disaster waiting to happen. Fuck!  After everything, how could he have forgotten Ben’s words that night? None of it was a reason to be this close to him, to fall back into old routines where it took one look for Ed’s heart skipping a beat. He would never understand why Ed had done it. Why would that change now? It hadn’t changed a decade ago. Why was this different?

Wounded Divinity, Withered Cosmos Book 1, Chapter 1 II: A Sword Gilded in Flesh

She steps through the shining vapor that filters the air, sweeping the war room for a killer that probably doesn’t exist. Her charge, the Firmament’s Gloam-king, awaits at the chamber’s entrance. Years they’ve been together, and she still doesn’t understand why he insists on wasting her as his personal guard when he could rend this cosmic citadel into a fucked up ouroboros without breaking a sweat. Think of it as a performance, he had told her once. Fuck you, she had answered. She concludes her performance with a glance beneath the very big table. Considering literally only two Sylwym and one talking skull use the space, it feels unnecessary, but she lets Nyphyr have his vices. Satisfied a mercenary with a blaster up their ass isn’t hiding anywhere, she falls into an iridescent-shell backed chair and tucks her knees to her chest. Now begins the true terror: a conference call.

I've posted some things about my dark sci-fi/speculative fiction WIP set in an alternative 1962 where the Cuba missile crises has gone nuclear with superheroes and corrupt agencies. Ruins of Dawn has queer characters (including a bi, gay, ace and allo relationship), that is enemies-to-lovers, second chance. The main character is disabled and neurodiverse, ownvoices. He deals with a lot of chronic pain and unhealthy ways to cope with it.

Fan art of Ed (the MC with the gay and ace flag overlay) and his person, Ben, Benatehhor, drawn by me.

If you wanna hear more about this WIP let me know😄

I'm seeing the same people over and over on my dash so that naturally means I need to follow some new people to spice things up.

If you're a writeblr who writes original fiction about:

queer, poc, and/or disabled characters (especially ownvoices)

particularly aro/ace and neurodivergent where are u at!!!

high fantasy (bonus for dragons and uncommon settings)

vampires (bonus if not romance)

revenge plots

fluid/nuanced/unlabeled relationships and identities

anything asian or eastern-inspired, especially themes like the yinyang and martial arts and taoism

anything that subverts tropes tbh

Reblog this and I'll check you out! I'm a bit picky about what I like on my dash so no guarantees but I'll try to boost some wips/intros and follow new people <3

If you're interested in fairytale retellings, high & urban fantasy, genderless cultures, dragons, vampires, werewolves, and every type of queer in the book you might want to check out my stuff lol

Is there anyone curious about my current work in progress (Ruins of Dawn)? Excerpts from parts I'm more proud over or anything else, like world building?
