hey! I'm relatively new here :3 just wanted to say that I just got back into the kotlc fandom and I'm obsessed with the wings au- it's one of the first not-xreader fanfics I've genuinely enjoyed and gotten so invested in. I love the qpr-ish relationships between the characters and the way you wrote them all! the wing designs are just- *chef's kiss* and the story line behind it too- I could go on all day about it. You've honestly inspired me to try writing my own aus! I was wondering if I could post fanart of the designs? I'd be sure to credit+tag you ofc
You're such an amazing writer!
Oh my gosh this ask is so sweet I legitimately read it and straight up stopped what I was doing for a solid 20 seconds to smile at my phone. I'm sitting here like !!!!! and covering my face
Also welcome to/back to the fandom! It's fairly small overall and relatively stagnant at the moment (the two year gap between books has really changed things), but there's a solid handful of us who are here and refuse to let go :)
I'm absolutely thrilled that you love the dynamics between the characters because I think that was one of the things I was the most...not nervous, but unsure about? Not that I didn't want to do it, because I very much did, but it's generally a different dynamic than a lot of the other fics in the fandom. All the ship fics are wonderful, I was just very aware that I was intentionally flat out ignoring all romance in a fandom that loves it. I wanted to go for a "they're all a family and it's like they've always been a family and they trust each other and are there for each other without hesitation or awkwardness" kinda thing. I have one note from my original layout that just says "(domestic)" when talking about all of them.
The wing designs!! I love them all so much and it was so fun to try and figure out what to do for each of them. I was trying to do wings that were a little more obvious for the characters and wouldn't require anyone to really search up anything to figure out why they had them, more follow a mental association. Like with Linh's dragonfly wings, dragonfly you think water and Linh is a water person! The added detail of her wings specifically relating to dragons was a bonus play on words there, but do you get what i mean about the association? That's what I was going for.
The story line! It has developed so much since I first wrote it there are things happening that I never planned for and things that I meant to do that got completely ignored, but I love where the au has ended up and where it's going. It is still heading towards its original ending, but it's gotten there a different way and with different dynamics and important characters. Like Phoenix (the girl) originally was just a throwaway character from the first chapter that got the kotlcrew out of a sticky situation and made them face some things as they did so, but then someone asked about her and I went...wait a minute you're right why is she there? And now she's got a lot of relevance to like. Literally everything happening.
It's so cool that it's inspired you--if you ever do write/draw/make your own aus I'd love to see them! And if you ever have any questions on how I've made mine I love to talk about everything always, so you'll probably get a lot more information than you could ever want
As for fanart, of course!! I love seeing fanart of the au it always such a delight. Please do tag me, that way I can see it!! It's so cool to see how people interpret the words I've put down because I almost never have a concrete image in my head. I'm just going for vibes and then those vibes become different things to different people and it's so fun to see.
Thank you so so much for all the compliments this ask seriously made my day, I absolutely love hearing peoples' thoughts on the wings au. I was actually just writing for it before I answered this, so have a little teaser quote!!
“Here, this is a good example,” came Biana’s voice behind her, and she whirled back around, watching those flecks of light condense and merge and assemble themselves into the shape of her friend, her sister.

Ancients Week 2024 (!!!)
Welcome to Ancients Week 2024! This is a KOTLC fan-week dedicated to Ancient elves — because the concept of elves old enough to remember the very distant past is deeply fascinating, and because I love the Ancients. This event will be running from July 7th to July 14th 2024 (so a week and an extra day, but we'll call it a week for simplicity's sake). This is the first time I'm running this event (and, for that matter, any fandom event), so please be kind if I mess up somewhere. I'll try not to :)
Rules
DO NOT USE AI. NONE WHATSOEVER. I'm being serious. (although I'm pretty sure anyone won't, it doesn't hurt to state it outright)
No negativity on others' posts! We're all here to have fun.
And on that note, have fun!!!
Questions I Anticipate Getting
What can I make?
Anything! Fanfic, fanart, headcanons, meta, memes, incorrect quotes, dashboard simulators (those fake dashboard things), whatever — nothing is out of bounds!
Whom/what can I make something about?
Ancients! You can make any kind of fan piece about any and all Ancients, including implied/textual-ghost Ancients (like Bronte's mother, or Fintan's dead friends, who would have been Ancient had they survived into the modern day), characters you headcanon as Ancient, Ancient OCs, and even younger characters written as Ancients, so long as your piece involves an Ancient or is Ancients-centric somehow. So basically, go wild and have fun!
When will prompts be up?
If I stay on schedule, prompts should be up on (or in the week of, depending on what's going on) May 1st 2024. In the meantime, I'd love it if you could send prompt suggestions to this blog! I can only put seven prompts up but, I'd love to hear your ideas!
Do I have to complete every prompt or post every day?
No, you do not have to complete every prompt, or post every day! Feel free to post late, skip days, ignore the prompts, combine the prompts and so forth — do only as much as you want to. Remember, Ancients Week is a fun little thing and also a state of mind not bound by petty things like dates. (And I'd genuinely be delighted if I saw new ideas I hadn't considered and new posts in the tag even months later.)
How do I tag my works?
I will be tracking the #ancients week 2024 tag, so please tag your fanworks with that! You can also tag @ancientsweek in your post. All the posts I find will be reblogged to this blog.
Can I post my works elsewhere?
(Not sure if people think about it but I always wonder about it if I'm participating in an event so, here you go.)
Yes! If you would like to cross-post your fanworks onto another site (like AO3, for example), go for it — after all, it's your work, and I can't (and don't want to) dictate where and how you publish it.
Where can I find announcements/reminders/important stuff?
Announcements, reminders, prompt lists, and all other things in the vein of housekeeping will be tagged #proclamations and asides (like this post). You can search for this tag on this blog.
Tag list under cut (I'm extremely sorry if I've forgotten someone)
@drama-llamaaa @fintan-pyren @swans-chirping-in-the-distance @chronically-ill-psionipath @kale-of-the-forbidden-cities @oroshka @ch3shireacat @crescentpaws @autistic-daydreamer @periwinkle-the-11th @lezabeththetheodoraimposter @i-died-dead @heliophilia63194 @mango-cheese67 @chaotic-starlight24 @jkriordanverse @mmeemy @myfairkatiecat @strange-cat (can't seem to be able to properly tag you sorry)

NEW Bracket!
Tumblr media
What is the best quote from the whole series?
Submissions are OPEN! Guidelines:
The definition of "best" is up to you! Does it make you go feral? Is it crazy funny? Does it change the course of the story? Is it so sweet you melt? Is it just really weird? It's your decision what makes a quote significant.
You can submit as many as you'd like, but please put them each on a separate form.
Please only submit each quote once. Different people can submit the same quote, though, for a better chance of making it into the bracket.
The maximum length for a quote is 300 characters. You can argue with me about this if you're polite.
I won't be personally including propaganda on this blog, but I'd love to see it under #best kotlc quote bracket.
I will block you if you're rude.
Tentatively, the form will close January 17, but that depends on the number of submissions.
Go crazy, and have fun!

Why the Asian rep in kotlc makes me sad:
As far as I know Shannon has not confirmed anything as to the ethnicity of the Song twins. When they first come up in the series they're described as anime characters. (I think. It's been a while since I read that book).
To me it feels like Shannon tried to find the easiest way to tell the reader that the Song twins are Asian. What's something everyone knows has Asian characters in it? Anime. This isn't that big of a deal really. What's a way to tell the reader the characters are Japanese? Compare them to mainstream Japanese media. It just makes sense, except
there's no evidence the Song Twins are japanese
The names Tam and Linh are both Vietnamese.
The name Song comes from lots of different places but Shannon says it started as Tong, which is a Vietnamese surname, and then it was changed to Song because music or whatever
To me this feels like the Song twins are unequivocally Vietnamese.
What is the point of calling Vietnamese characters Japanese????? What??? There are other ways to tell the reader your characters are Vietnamese????? Vietnamese people and Japanese people look nothing alike????
Shannon could be picking and choosing the Asian features she wanted to put in her story which is even worse.
Why are there like 4 people of color in the entire lost cities and the rest are white??? And where are the south Asians?? And the entire continent of south America???
I just. I'm so tired. Do the Asian rep right or do it not at all.
Edit (yes, I did pirate Neverseen off of the internet just for this): the exact quote is "they look like they've stepped out of k-pop or anime" in case any of you were wondering. Way to pick the 2 most known Asian ethnicities to tell the reader the characters are Asian.
