I am on a train and achey af from yesterday SO I’m finally getting around to the tag game both @claudia-nomusaabara and @poetic-emptiness-fanfic tagged me in like….. over a week ago about current WIPs + future projects I have planned 😅😅😅😅 I’m sorry it’s taken me weeks to get to but thank you sm for tagging me ❣️❣️

I love a good list and that’s all I have brain for atm SO other than the last two prompts for MM & Sam being wrekt week, the WIPs I want to go back to are:

AU Hunter/prey fic with Tasya, Valerius, and Donna 🤭 I started it at the peak of my Lady D thirst and I really should finish it. I got through all of the build up, now is just the spicy bits lmao

I am going to force myself to finish the Sam/Nasrin fic even though I am now deeply insecure about it LMFAO again, I really just need to get to the spice, but 😵‍💫

Sam/Valerius fic where Sam chokes Val with his braid and Valerius (regrettably) enjoys it a lot. Things get weird & intense before they got really kinky LMAO

Sam & Nadia bond over siblings, family expectations, running away from home and craving it all the same, and horses!

I do want to go back to the kinktober fics. I psyched myself out way too much, and MM has really helped boost my confidence :’) I enjoyed the plans I made and I have a lot written that I never posted so that may be a long term summer project

Fics I would like to start:

In general I need to update everyone’s refs and bios :’)

I just need more Damien stuff LOL smut and serious stuff. I’m bubbling over something with him and Gawain, but I also want to do more with Naima and Antony. Would also love to do something about what it was like being raised with the courtiers lol

Some snapshots (and angst lol) of Donna’s childhood; I wana do more serious fics with them at some point and I’ve been having Family thoughts buzzing in my brain

Donna escapades @ the Pearl Isles. I do wana do fic of their first time meeting Sam too. I just have. Lots of Sam/Donna thots LOL

I wana redo Val and Donna meeting and maybe some short ones of what their courtship was like. Possibly do a breakup fic too LOL just more couple things I hint @ in fics but haven’t actually given time to shine

I do wana do some sad Sam and family fics. I like to make Sam. Feel things. That aren’t just horny and mad LMAO

I’m going to be annoying and say if you want to do this please do LMAO tagging people makes me overly anxious but I do wana hear the besties’ plans 👁👁💕

#rambling #WIP #Damien clawing @ my skull like WRITE ME WRITE ME WRITE ME LMAO

Updated! Big List of Spooky Movies and Books!

Get ready for Halloween~

I’m a notorious list-maker; I love collecting stories, and I also love sharing them with people who are either looking for ref or just want to find something interesting. “Spooky” is a pretty broad term, so I listed different categories below that will hopefully make more sense. Some movies/books fit into more than one category, so I picked one and stuck it there. Some stories have a film and book version that are both worth taking a look at, so I put a *by those titles (and they appear in the movie and book list). These range from being for kids to more mature, so if that is a concern for you be sure to check out the rating/content yourself

I’ve updated this since I’ve added a few more titles to my collection, and added more categories (but I think I’ll call this done for now, I can’t update it every couple of months)

I wanted to limit myself, at least a little (otherwise the list would have gon on forever). So each category has at least 3 titles listed, but no more than 7. A few of these are more funny than scary, and some might not really be “spooky” at all, but they still fit the theme. Something to keep in mind, I only listed stories that I own. This is not a complete list or a “best of”. I went with the ones from my personal collection because I know them best and I enjoy them. Hopefully I listed a few that will help somebody with research, or at least entertain them for a bit!

Enjoy~
