Alas, the Dragonkin Soldiers never attained immortality, and perished as decrepit, pale imitations of their skyborn kin.

@gunslinginnhogtyin continued (x)

Back at her home, it was easier to pass off the things she did as a dragon as the behavior of other animals. Leftover deer carcasses were the works of bears or wolves. Giant ruts in the earth were wild boars. The folk in the nearby village were wary enough of wild animals to believe it. Besides, they cared more about the rumors of her being a witch than thinking a dragon was living so close by.

But now that she's started traveling...

She didn't expect to be interrogated by the world's most superstitious cowboy.

"I am most certainly not a fairy, nor a mage!" Annalise huffed, tugging her bonnet closer to her head. "My hint is that what I am starts with an H, and ends with an N! I mean, look at me. Do I look like I'm capable of any sort of magic whatsoever, mister?"

17, 19, and 3? 👀🍵

3. what is your favorite genre?

Fantasssssy my beloved <3

17. top 5 children’s books?

GLAD YOU ASKED and is also an evil question limiting me to five :p

For the sake of my heart I'm limiting this to children's chapter books because this list would be impossible if we were to include picture books. Nostalgia will also have a significant say as I've read more than a few excellent children's books in my adult life that, good as they are, don't quite manage the same level of blind adoration as some of these earlier ones do, even if they match them in every other regard.

The Wind in the Willows: immediately disregarding rule two, I didn't actually like this book as a kid, though the fact we had an abridged copy growing up might have had something to do with that. This book is made up entirely of charm, and perfectly nails it's atmosphere. The fact that this isn't a cottagecore classic is beyond ridiculous >:(

The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane: this is probably the closest you can get to fictional book that made me the person I am. There is something so poignant and deeply, deeply touching about this book and how it depicts loss and tragedy, and the hope and perseverance that makes life worth living.

Lara and the Gray Mare: I know I never shut up about her, but she means so much to me. This series more than any other showed me how much I care about women in history being women in history. Yes, it's has a Mulan spin to it, but it takes so much of its time honoring and respecting the roles women had in society, giving their actions weight and importance, and allowing them to achieve self-actualization through the myriad of ways they contributed to society. I adore it, and thinking about it makes me ticked off with how narrowly feminism set's the parameters for female success at times in favor of more mescaline achievements.

Dragonskin Slippers: this was quite possibly my introduction to tongue-in-cheek fantasy parody while being unabashedly girly! There's adorable, thoughtful, and terrifying dragons who love summer fruits and collect dogs, and stained glass windows, an abundance of embroidery, evil princesses, non-evil counts, decidedly practical heroines, and absurd aunts who've read too many fairytales! This book is pure comfort and joy to me <3

The Complete Adventures of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie: this comes the closest out of any book I've read to capturing the pure dreamlike vagueness of fairytales. May Gibbs often gets compared to Beatrix Potter, but I'd say that Potter has a more grounded realism to her work, while Gibbs feels like an unfinished sentence. Events in her stories happen, and you get the sense they work especially on an emotional level, but events will take place with little clarification or explanation—hence the fairytale quality.

19. most disliked popular books?

(Kids and preteens look away; this isn't intended for you) Keeper of the Lost Cities is bad actually, I'm going to need all the adults to relearn what a good children's book is. Go read a Newbery or ten, because this isn't it.

Murderbot Diaries is really, really not my cup of tea. Pardon me for not finding an android reenacting me as my worst self somehow relatable or comforting to read about. Nobody in this first novella gets any good solid characterization,other than Murderbot and the captain, there's a bajillion people on this crew yet all I know about them is which other person in the team they'd like to sleep with, which, for a self-professed skipper of sex scenes seems like the least likely thing for our protagonist to zero in on, or perhaps there's a larger point here about how coupling is all that human's think about. Anyway, don't like it.

#ask #books #not a chapter book so I didn't include it but the Milly-Molly-Mandy stories will forever have a hold over my heart #children's books just make my brain go brrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRR I love them so much #Fizzy talks #The Wind in the Willows #The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane #Lara and the Gray Mare #Dragonskin Slippers #he Complete Adventures of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie #May Gibbs #Murderbot

whenever you have time, i NEED you to write something based on that ask you got about vhagar being super attached to aemond's girl 🥺

These requests are from November, so yes I am still working on the messages I have received! Thank you for them :)

I would love to expound more upon Vhagar bonding with the reader (you) especially after you and Aemond get married. The idea of dragons being intelligent enough to feel/recognize the bonds their riders have with other people is something I'd love to be canonized.

When Aemond could not find you within the walls of the Red Keep or honing your body in the training courtyard, he knew by now you were well outside the confines of King’s Landing, spending quality time with your newest best friend.

“I thought I would find you out here.”

You looked up with a smile at Aemond’s familiar velvet voice.  Your back was pressed against the iron dragonskin of Vhagar’s neck, a book of Targaryen history propped open upon your knees as you had been regaling the dragon with tales she would’ve been well familiar with.

“I needed to escape the stuffy sitting room for a while.” You agreed, feeling the rumbling purr growing within Vhagar as she acknowledged her rider’s presence.

You scooted into Aemond’s embrace as he took a seat on the soft earth beside you, peering briefly at the book you had been reading. “And what does Vhagar think about today’s reading material?”

You looked sideways up along the endless expanse of Vhagar’s neck to where her yellow eye watched the two of you.  You caught Aemond’s eye with a smirk. “No complaints so far.”

“Hmm.”  Aemond took the book from you, closing and setting it aside before taking your hands in his.  He leaned into your space, brushing his nose against yours before finding your lips in a chaste kiss. “One day I’m going to seek you out and find you’ve taken her out for a ride.”

Your heart stuttered in mild fear at the very thought. “That’ll be the day.”  You laughed as Aemond breathed a soft chuckle, tucking your head beneath his chin, his warm breath rustling your hair.

He held you for many moments as you basked in the warmth of his body and the continual rumbling of Vhagar as she shifted slightly at your back.

The three of you were alerted to the sound of many hooves thundering upon the earth as several riders cleared the hill.  Upon seeing the massive island-sized dragon laying before them their horses reared in fear, nearly sending several soldiers toppling to the ground.  Vhagar’s head became visible from your periphery as she growled low and deep, moving to position her snarling teeth in between where you and Aemond sat and the newcomers.

“Vhagar, gida.”  Aemond calmed the dragon with a word, though Vhagar did not move her head from its defensive position.

Aemond gave you a strange look which you mirrored right back at him. “Has she acted like this before?”

You shook your head, glancing to where you could see the sun glinting off dragon teeth the length of a man’s body.

“My prince!”  The leading rider called, unwilling to come any closer. “The king requests your presence at once!”

“Duty calls.”  Aemond sighed, rising to stand and brushing sand off his clothing. “Would you like to remain here or accompany me back to the city?”

You took his proffered hand and he helped you rise to your feet. “I’ll come back with you.”

At your movements Vhagar grumbled another deep sound of displeasure, her tail this time slithering around to block your path forward, even separating you from where Aemond stood.

“Vhagar!”  Aemond said almost reproachfully, looking to where Vhagar’s gaze was still fixated on the soldiers.  He shook his silver head in annoyance. “Seems she has become incorrigibly possessive of you overnight.”

“Vhagar.”  You called to the ancient she-dragon gently.  The yellow eye flicked briefly to you. “Nyke ȳgha.”  She seemed to relax at your Valyrian reassurance, allowing you to take Aemond’s hand again and proceed closer to where the soldiers waited.

“I haven’t a clue what’s gotten into her.”  You muttered to your husband.

Aemond shook his head in agreement as he glanced back toward where Vhagar still was growling low. “Perhaps she decided to take you on as a sort of dragonling…” He stopped mid-stride, color draining from his face as he turned to face you. “A child.”

“I am hardly her child, Aemond.”  You snickered, your smile dropping when his expression remained serious. “What’s wrong?”

“Are you…” Aemond shot a look to where the riders were obviously trying to listen in, he lowered his voice and leaned closer to you. “Are you with child?”

Your stomach swooped as shock coursed through you. “I-I don’t know.”

“Let’s pay a visit to the maester after dealing with whatever my brother wants.”  Aemond squeezed your hand briefly, unable to keep an excited grin off his angular face. He looked again at Vhagar, this time in mild wonder.  The grumbles and groans of the dragon faded away as the riders escorted the two of you back to the Keep.

Nine months later the kingdom welcomed the birth of their newest Targaryen princess.  

She grew to be very much like her father, in mannerisms and visage.  When she was old enough Aemond didn’t waste any time in introducing her to Vhagar.  

The old dragon seemed to already know who she was.

more books!!! two more editions of the sea makes bones of bodies, this time bound in the three-piece bradel style--but still using a square back. bit of a bastardization, actually. these were definitely a learning curve and i have some notes for the next time i attempt this style, but overall im extremely pleased with the results. also!! these were my first attempts at HTV machine foiling rather than hand foiling, which (after a bit of trial and error) was a rousing success. EXCITING!!

glamor shots and details below, of course.

the first copy is for my wonderful friend and beta reader @cryptenby, whose support throughout the whole writing process really made this entire fic possible. it features a layered purple and black + silver cover with silver HTV titling. the back has a silver HTV katana design and the summary text "only one is a monster but they're both a little monstrous", which is one of the tags from the fic. the endsheets are silver mullberry paper and the bookmark is black trim with a silver-wound shark tooth (real!) and black/graphite beads. it also has hand-sanded, black speckled edges!! i made the endbands for this edition out of the same purple i used for the cover and wrapped it around a piece of thick chord.

the second copy is for @amusingghost as thanks for their incredible fanart of so many different scenes in the book!!!! it features a blue and back water braid lokta cover, dragonskin marble endsheets, and gold HTV foiling. the back cover has a gold HTV wave design with the summary text "only one is a monster but they're both a little monstrous", and the bookmark is black trim with a 24k gold clasp and gold-painted katana charm! it also has blue and white endbands and hand-sanded, blue and black speckled edges :3

i also edited the typeset to include ghost's fanart in both copies!!!! it will be bound in all subsequent copies of the book >:3c

and heres a closeup of the edges because im super pleased with how they turned out.

both copies have their wonky bits (i had some issues casing in on both) but!!! such is the nature of learning a new craft. overall, progress is progressing!!!

#bookbinding #ficbinding #fanbinding #bad blade bindery #i need. to figure out how to take better pictures of these #ALSO THERES ONE MORE PIECE OF GHOST'S IN THE TYPESET THAT FOR SOME REASON I DIDNT PHOTOGRAPH

@xxlordalexanderxx continued (x)

The dragoness balked as the massive draconic beast she had caught scent of landed in front of her. Her feathers fluffed up instinctively, making her resemble a large, fluffy ball as she flattened her body against the wintry ground. A pitiful whine escaped her throat; she wasn't expecting such an aggressive encounter.

"I mean no harm!" Annalise cried out. "I hope I'm not trespassing; I was looking for something to eat, that's all! Just one deer, or an elk...!"

It was the first time she had traveled from her own forest in ages — she had spent so much time alone that she had forgotten other dragons may be rather....territorial.

do you think in the furry universe cheetah and cowprint are seen as like culturally insensitive or do they just not care. or maybe there are other patterns that are strangely more popular like faux alligator/dragonskin or giraffe-print or smth

[ravenclawh0re18]

Scorpius: Father, I want to tell you smth Draco: What is it......? Scorpius: I'm gay Draco: OH! And here I was scared that you've gotten into trouble or something!!! Me too by the way Scorpius: *relieved* Oh I'm gla- Wait DID YOU JUST SAY "ME TOO"-

.

Albus: Uhh Dad, I think I might be in love with a guy Harry: Well, so long as it's not Malfoy's son, you have my blessing! Albus: ........ Harry: It-it's not Malfoy's son.... right? Albus: YOU can't blame me though, can you.....? Uncle Ron has told me quite a few stories of your school years, y'know Harry:

.

Harry: Don't you think we should tell them? Draco: WE?! YOU are the one who's better at talking people, Potter! Harry: Didn't you tell me just last night how awkward I am....? Draco: Yes, but you can talk people into doing whatever you want! It's your fault we're here in this mess in the first place!!! Harry: MY FAULT?! How in the name of Dragonskin is it MY fault?! Draco: YOU WERE TALKING! Harry: ......and? Draco: Your lips were moving Harry: So.....? Draco: OH SALAZAR YOU ARE SO DAFT HOW DID YOU EVEN DEFEAT VOLDEMORT?! Harry: I had help Draco: Of course you did! You and that sweet talking mouth of yours! Harry: I still don't understand how this mess is my fault, Malfoy. Why don't you explain that to me first? Draco: You're really gonna make me say it? Harry: *confused Pikachu face* Draco: Oh Merlin's Hat! Your lips were moving! So it made me want to move mine! AGAINST YOURS!!!!! Harry: Oh....? Oh- Draco: You can be so dense sometimes I have no idea why I still love you! Harry: Well, you're such a git, and that doesn't make me love you any less either!!! Draco: You know what, telling them that we are STILL together can wait *intense makeout session* Scorpius and Albus secretly watching the whole drama unfold from under the Invisibility cloak: *look at each other* Albus: I guess having a questionable taste runs in our blood...... *kisses Scorpius* *Invisibility cloak suddenly falls off them* ....... Any ideas what's gonna happen in the next episode.....?

P.S.: Don't hate me for this, I know it's terrible but I just had to-
