Ok dear friends, I am very exhausted and will have to go on hiatus for a while. I will still post updates to my ongoing fics and will set the queue to one post a day, but otherwise I am very sorry, my anxiety because of my current job search situation is sucking all energy out of me. It hurts because I love you all and love seeing all your creative projects, yet I gotta focus on keeping my flesh prison running and not falling into despair.

Please be patient, I will at one point resurface. This regent of the void is hard to kill :)

Bio(ware)feedback 7/11/26

Hi, everyone! We're back! =D I think I'm just going to wipe the slate clean, so if I didn't get to you last time (I apologize) please feel free to submit again! It's just been such a busy month for me, plus recovering from the concussion and everything, I think it's just better to sort of restart everything.

If you are: 1) in a Bioware fandom, 2) want fic OR ART comments/engagement, this event is for you!

This event will run from Noon PST to Midnight PST on Saturday, July 11th, 2026. You can check the time here. Please try to keep your submissions within the stated timeframe, so that I do not have to continue to monitor this post. Thank you! If you are unable to participate within the time period, you may contact me and I will add your fic to the next one for you. Thank you for understanding!

Directions:

Reblog this post with a link to your fic OR ART PIECE

I will reblog that for exposure, and I (or @biowaredisasterbisexual, @crowofstarlight, @mageofquandrix who have generously offered their help!) will leave kudos & comment (like + comment, for art) on your fic (multi-chapters, first chapter only). Look for comments/kudos from flyiing_giraffe/hyperions_light (me), MotherGiselle (BDB), mageofquandrix (mage) or starlightcrow (CS). It may take a while to get through everyone. Thank you for your patience!

I am requesting that people DO NOT send fics/art with explicit sexual assault OR that are created using Generative AI, out of personal preference. Thank you!

That's it! If you're looking for a longer explanation & guidelines, they're here!

Thanks for sharing your work!

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

good morning friends, a little mental health update:

my doc took one look at my tired little face and put me on two weeks of burnout prevention break. not that I'm surprised, but all the talks of "everyone else works harder than you do and they don't get burnout" do skew my perception of how much I am capable of.

anyway. today's chapter is posted. thanks to everyone who has tagged me in the last days, I don't know if I will have the energy to participate myself but I appreciate you thinking of me.

back into the cave I go now. take care, stay hydrated, and keep on being creative, friends!

I think there is a dialog in the game, where EMMRICH mentions the Mourn Watch organises balls and parties, so I thought it would be fun if he took Bellara with him, so she could nerd out with the necromancers.

(She probably has many ideas for what to do with Hezenkoss’ skeleton mech, to everyone’s mild concern)

The idea that Treviso has special ziplines for the Crows to have an easier time going about stabbing people is hilarious to me because in my head Antivans have perfected hostile architecture in an attempt to keep Crows out. Roofs just crammed with statues and traps and dead ends and magical anti-grip paint (all tastefully appointed, of course)

You know, standard pigeon proofing. For bigger pigeons.

🤣🤣🤣 ... pigeon proofing

I actually recommend everyone write for a rarepair once because it completely changes your relationship with fandom. Engagement stops being numbers and starts being names. You know who's going to show up. You recognize usernames. Someone disappears for a while and then comes back and you're like “OH MY GOD WELCOME HOME.” It's incredibly wholesome. It is also deeply inconvenient when all six of you simultaneously get writer's block-

mah boy being very handsome as always

Food service really is a heroic struggle! That's why it's better with a partner :3 Ty to @davrinsleftpectoral for commissioning these two, and for your patience!!

Commissions always open ♥

[davrinsleftpectoral]

Thank you so much. They’re perfect. And thanks as always to @serensama for letting me play dolls with you.

Also totally thinking about stealing that tag line as the description for the fic! 😂

Read Keep on Trucking here.

the most essential part of a fandom are those people who immediately tell you to write it, draw it, make it when you share your ideas, you have no idea how many fanworks are born just because someone encouraged it
