#epilogue is almost done

[ravenpuffheadcanons]

The Face of All the World is Changed

Author: EstellaB (@ravenpuffheadcanons)

Relationships: Leo Fitz & Jemma Simmons, Leo Fitz/Jemma Simmons, Jemma Simmons & Daisy Johnson, Jemma Simmons & Anne Weaver, Leo Fitz & Holden Radcliffe

Summary: Miss Simmons, aged 22, wants what any sensible young lady wants: a laboratory where she can study the stages of decay, a subscription to a circulating academic library, and for her parents to stop making difficulties about that misunderstanding with the livers. When her father announces that he’s moving the family far away from their home in Cambridge, she fears that her already slim chances of contributing to scientific progress will vanish forever. Perhaps, however, the cosmos has something rather different in mind.

Chapter 25: The Spinster's Mite is up now, or start from the beginning!

arc from netgalley, out september 3

#Compound Fracture #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #aromantic books #andrew joseph white did it again…… #pretty fast paced and gripping! I barely put it down. #Definitely the primal scream of rage the author described it as. Pretty brutal in places. I enjoyed it a lot. #it’s definitely less sff than his other books - the ghostly element is almost subtle - but that worked for me. #I was especially excited for this one because I heard the MC is aromantic and I’m so happy about it I think that was done well #certainly with more nuance and depth than I’ve come to expect from a lot of books; despite the fact that it’s not a major focus #(and yknow takes place over a couple weeks and is still in the questioning stage other than maybe the epilogue) #It’s tackling some very large complex things politically and is very unsubtle and somewhat neat about it #- and I think some aspects could have used more nuance/elaboration? but also maybe that’s just not possible to fit in one little book #the handful of negative reviews I can find I guess I see where they're coming from lol #but yknow. lots of good regardless #and also. appreciation moment for evangeline gallagher's cover art

Yessssss the legs are done so I can finish stuff that‘s not just boss fight second phase and the immediate aftermath now!! So here’s the normal Magolor ref. The prosthetic design was a commission from lovely friend Cozzymandias (@cozzymandiesque on twt I believe) who designs and draws a lot of mechs, check him out!

#art #digital #kirby #kirby gijinka #magolor #for further context see my previous post #also sorry I had to explode him a little bit I didn't feel like adding another column just for the legs without plating #and I didn't feel like drawing the legs from the back either so I comporomised #the traitor magolor/EX piece is almost done just gotta color the legs and tweak some things #I tried to design the legs myself at first but they were not very good and then I remembered I have a friend who does mech commissions #and I've been on the lookout for a solid excuse to commission a friend for a while anyways #very happy with the results #I love how the hips are so cool but literally nobody is ever going to see them #this is like wearing heart-print boxers. To him #oh and the plating is also held on with magn- I mean magic so that during the Epilogue some pieces can either be lost #or he just doesn't have enough magic to spare to keep all of them on #I like how the legs look at a glance like they could be fully mechanical but they barely are at all. It's all about facades with Maggie #although in Deluxe it's not really much of a secret that he's a wizard #that's also why they're made to look like cat legs #because I decided the Ancients are actual catboys LOL #I don't know why he lost his legs btw I just though prosthetics would be nice for all the logistical and character and aesthetic reasons #he can still fly/levitate without them btw it's just less taxing this way and he doesn't have to have his wings out. Win-win! #will add the alt text in a minute the mobile app was just being weird about not saving or posting my draft and I dunno how to add it desktop #alt text in reblogs now cause it was continuing to be weird

Roy stared for a moment, then refocused. "Jason. Can you wait in the bedroom for a second?" "Are you serious?” asked Jason, offended, and Roy gave him a flat look. "Jay. Please." Jason stalked off to the bedroom and slammed the door. Roy sighed and turned back to Ollie. "Ollie. Thanks for coming by. This was a shitshow. I'll come by Star in a few weeks and we can catch up, but before then, can you please, please, please recognize that I like Jason a lot, and you actually like Jason a lot more than Jade, who, by the way, your disapproval did not stop me from marrying and having a child with, so can you take this as a win and stop fighting my boyfriend. Please do not fight my boyfriend. Please do whatever fucking processing you need to do so that you do not fight my boyfriend."

Holding Steady Ch. 9! Gettin’ towards the end of this one, folks

#this chapter is banter/feels whiplash so I went for somewhere in the middle with the excerpt #it's almost done! one more chapter and an epilogue! holy shit I need to finish the epilogue #roy harper #jason todd #jayroy #my fic

getting a little bit obsessed with my "cottagecore throuple" here, because the more I think about it, the more disgustingly perfect and idyllic the whole thing is to me.

like... post-game, I like to imagine Shadowheart absolutely thriving. She's a city girl with a deep love for animals, and spotty- to nil memories, most of which are of the worst things to have ever happened in a dank torture-basement: of course a sweet, picturesque forest cottage (so far I like to think that Petyr would call it "The Hovel", even though it's by all means a cozy, nice hunter's lodge) would have her downright giddy, and she deserves every ounce of that happiness ever.

As I imagine it, when not enthusiastically learning all there is to learn about the quasi-self-sustaining life (that she had dropped herself into by shacking up with a literal forest ranger), she spends as much time outside as possible: walks barefoot in the tall grass, stops to smell every flower (and even plants quite a few, just by the vegetables), and lays in the soft underbrush for hours at a time- enjoying the sunlight caressing her face, enjoying a nice novel (and/or a cuddle with Scratch, the cub, or her boyfriend once he sits down for a moment), or just gazing up at the moon and stars in silent worship. She makes friends with every animal that crosses her path, too: SO many potions of animal speaking are consumed, it's absurd. (She's best friends with the chickens. Petyr has to start farming acorn truffles in the basement for her, and that even proves actually very lucrative- in town, that shit sells for like 10-20 gold a pop.)

She'd of course bring home everything that'll let her. Little wildflower bouquets and stuff at first, but also every critter: from juvenile racoons just weaned from their mothers (they look almost like kittens! how cute!), to elderly foxes that just want to curl up in front of the fire and warm their bones somewhere safe for a moment. She's having the time of her goddamn life, she's learning a shitton of life skills she was never taught (finally learning things not meant to make her better at hurting people!), and generally enjoying a life that, while still plagued by remnants of the past (night terrors, perpetrator trauma, loss, grief, pains both suffered and inflicted, all that great stuff), has her feeling actually content with her lot in it.

And with all this, Petyr is... very business as usual, or at least he's trying to pretend that he is. Having someone in what was his space for like 20 years is strange initially, but if there's one thing he's used to, it's adapting. Making things work. (Plus, he's like, happy, or whatever. In love. You know, that sort of rot.)

Then again, he's also used to only having to feed himself with the very little he has, not another (especially another who is inexperienced at this type of thing, and a second another who just... drops by sometimes, always unannounced and unexpected, but never unwelcome), which deep down does have him a bit (a lot) more antsy about not just being the self-appointed guardian of her happiness, but also just... their general survival.

He's keenly aware that winters in the wild are never especially easy, not when you're so far removed from the safety of a community- especially not the way he's used to being alone, without even magic to keep you warm and safe. Usually, he spends most of the year primarily occupied by preparing for winter, and even like that, there have been lean years: years when he got snowed in for tendays, when he did something stupid and all the careful prep went down the shitter, years he had to go hungry and learn to make do with next to nothing.

So he compensates for- (and distracts himself from-) that anxiety by making extra sure that the pantry is stocked to bursting with all the goods there can be, and they often head out into the woods to hunt and forage together- although he's not a great (or even a good) teacher, Shadowheart (usually Shadow, often Heart, lately Jen or Jenny in affection) does make what he used to do out of sheer need, into something also done for fun.

Hunting and foraging are fun now, and soon, the cabinets are overflowing with jars and jars of dry mushrooms, so much homemade deer jerky, jams and jellies and pickles galore... there's mead fermenting, and homemade soap curing before it can be used, firewood stacked to the height of a person... herb bundles, garlic braids, grain corn, and drying peppers are strung up on the rafters like fragrant fairy lights.

Meanwhile, I imagine that Halsin comes and goes as he pleases- not entirely unlike a beloved stray cat. He just shows up one evening as if he had left not tendays, but only a few hours ago, kicks the duff or mud or snow off his boots, and leans his staff into its habitual nook by the door. He sets whatever it is that he brought this time in its appropriate place (be it otherwise unobtainable goods from town, or just a little gift, a treat to enjoy together), and he sinks into the worn-out armchair by the fireplace that was declared his the first time he stayed.

One of the others almost always then strolls by to settle wordlessly on his lap (if not both of them- that poor chair can barely take the combined weight), and just relax as his big, warm fingers slowly work through the knots and ties keeping their hair out of their faces, and, voice rumbling deep in his chest, he tells them all that has happened in Reithwin the past while.

The many smells of dinner and the comforting scent of pipe tobacco mingle with the fragrant herbs and the crackling fire then, and creates something that can only be described as the scent of home.

.............. and then all three just fuck absolute NASTY every day, in every configuration, and on every surface available for the next, oh, month or so.

#first i had a typo; “halsin comes and hoes” and while that means something different; that too is accurate #squirrel plays bg3 #dad's birthday lunch done; i now relax by imagining cottagecore-ass domesticity yaaaay #i just. i love that in my world Shadowheart; the animal-loving yet lonely city girl #has two handsome woodsman boyfriends and the idyllic home of her dreams #Petyr; the man who convinced himself that he has no needs actually #has two partners who are not just sweet and fun but also both accomplished caregivers in different flavors #(they might even forcibly take care of him when he refuses to take care of himself) #and Halsin; after having finally accomplished the goal that has kept him wandering for a century #has two beautiful lovers who always welcome him home as a beloved equal #oc: petyr wildbrook #yeah the asshole whom i hate to love will have quite possibly the nicest goddamn epilogue; fuck #arvid gets a nice wedding; separation anxiety; and PTSD #iona goes on an almost fully nocturnal (and decades-long) wild goose chase to give her love the sun back #and petyr just. returns home with a gf #and a bf #and also PTSD but what else is new #they might even inspire him to try and reestablish a connection with his family; who knows
