Okay so, I'll try and start posting things around here, not always fic stuff and so on, but I want to talk with others, interact, idk, I've never been good at making frinds online or anything, and I just want to yap about fics bc I don't talk about them irl with anybody and sharing is caring and I want to follow people who also like them and so on... so yeah :]

[corybiit]

I completely failed at this

So my laptop is dying, like, It has become increasingly difficult to use it, but without it I literally can't work or study, but I don't even have like half of what a new one would cost.

If I were to open commissions for fics or just like a kofi, would that be a good idea?

I'm studying graphic design and animation, so I need a laptop with a good graphics card, and that stuff is *expensive*

Was gonna post another advance for the third chapter of the Valaeron omegaverse, and I just realized I vant bc is motsly angst 😔 🤧

[fearthefuzzybear]

oh uh. scuse me. just a lil snail crossing your dash

[corybiit]

I'll be honest, the reason I haven't updated If you cannot give me away is bc while I've been writing I haven't been writing lineally so I have several future scenes ready which are probably not for the next chapter or even the next one.

[corybiit]

This is a little advance for the next chapter of "If you cannot give me away" My Valaeron omegaverse fic :]

[corybiit]

I have multiple comments saying they love the characterization for Daeron and Valarr in my fic, but I have to be honest, I have no idea what im doing 🚬🚬

@Fanfic writers:

My friend send me this link, is a series on a profile on Ao3 (tumblr) that has different tutorials to insert things to fanfics via html code, I thought I would share bc it’s really cool

Lists of tutorials:

This is a live example of how an author can create linked footnotes in their work with only a little bit of HTML and no workskins required. This is best viewed by clicking "Entire Work".

How to change text on Ao3 when the cursor is hovering over it (or clicked on mobile)

This a tutorial/live example on how to have text change or appear once a cursor is hovering over it. Helpful for pop-up spoilers, language translations, quick author's notes, etc.

How to mimic author’s notes and Kudos/Comment buttons

Anonymous on tumblr: do you have a skin that would mimic the author’s notes and review/kudos buttons section from the end of a fic? the desired effect being that the fic could go on after the “end” of the fic, so after the author’s notes and review/kudos buttons

Here's a tutorial/live example to do just that, with some of the buttons actually functioning. I'll explain more inside!

How to wrap text around images

Ao3 really decided to die on me as soon as I clicked on the omega dunk fic

[corybiit]

Had enough time to read the one I wanted and then another small one before ao3 went down again. It really doesn't want me to read omega Dunk apparently

That Dunkaerion post has been collecting notes... should I write it?

[corybiit]

Omega Aerion taking advantage at Ashford to sneak onto the tourney. As an omega it is not proper for him to even know how to duel, so he uses Daereon's armour to hide in plain sight. When he appears his father thinks it's Daeron finally arriving at the last minute after disappearing for days. So he ends up unhorsing two other lords before he reveals his face.

It is a scandal to say the least. Baelor is amused, thinks it funny his nephew is dead set on duelling, but Maekar is another business.

The alpha is furious that his son had done such a thing, making a fool out of their family in front of so many lords and common people. Much more because Aerion has been ruining his matches for marriage, and he's already over the age where he was expected to marry. So he decides to send Aerion to the north.

"Let's see if the cold is enough to tame your so-called fire."

Aerion is enraged, but his father tells him he is going to mate him to the next knight that wins the tourney if he doesn't do as he says, no matter that there are hedge knights and commoners in the tourney.

Tells him Lord Stark is going to be in charge of him during his staying Winterfell, and that his return is yet to be discussed, or at least that he will stay there until he finds reason.

We jump to Northern knight Duncan who was trained under Lord starks reign. After Arlan died they were in Stark territory and he ended up becoming a knight there (there are almost no knights in the north bc they do not worship the seven gods so ...yeah, but Arlan knights him before diyng so thats why) working for Lord Stark until he got to be captain of his guard.

He is in good Graces with Lord Stark, Brandon who appoints him as shield of the new guest, having heard of his temperament, and knowing Dunk to be loyal and honourable.

What Aerion doesn't know is that his father in his disdain for his behaviour told Lord Stark he was free to give his son a mate if the occasion came to be, and who better to tame the dragon than the Captain of his guard.

This doesn't come naturally of course. Aerion tries his best to be displeasing until he corners Lord Stark's own will and makes Dunk's life as miserable as he can. He tries to escape several times and ends up with constant guards through the night so he can't leave again in the middle of it.

When lord Stark tries to make a match with him and one of his sons Aerion questions his power over him, humiliating Brandon in front of other so the alpha tells him his father gave his blessing to anything he decides, making Aerion spiral as he realizes what he got himself into when he entered that tourney.

Aerion distraught at being literally tossed to the side by his family, and after failed attempts to ask his uncle for help, decides to go into the woods alone. Better to die free than live a life in shame. He gets lost while the whole keep goes into a panic about the missing prince. Dunk is the one leading the search party and he ends up saving Aerion's life after the prince falls through the ice of a lake.

Brandon grants him lordship for his bravery, and bc he seems to be the only alpha capable of containing Aerion he decides to match them. Aerion falls sick after his trip into the woods and is a month after when he is well that they get married in the godswood.

While sick, Duncan takes care of him, nursing him back to health and in that month is were their prickly dynamic starts to mellow.

Aerion feeling abandoned is distraught yet completely taken with the knight taking such gentle care of him, feeling like Duncan is the only person who has ever fought to keep him close despite his actions and attitude.

Duncan sees beyond the prince's attitude and the complicated feelings he had about him since he stepped into the keep. An omega so outlandish that his own father sent him away, spoiled and whimful. He found him beautiful since he laid eyes on him, despite their initial hatred he realised they had found Comfort in one another.

Dunk who will not go away no matter what Aerion does and the omega who despite his words always looks for his presence inside the room.

Duncan doesn't tell Aerion about their match thinking the prince will try to end his life or escape once more, but Aerion overhears some maids talking about how they're just waiting for him to get better so his wedding may proceed.

Aerion in panic asks Duncan to leave with him one night. Tells him he would much rather live outside court with him than marry some unknown northern lord, bc surely Brandon reached out to the worst kind of alpha that could be out there someone strict and violent who will not hesitate to put him in his "place".

Duncan gets offended, then confused, then he simply tells Aerion to sleep that things will be alright. Aerion is heartbroken but he will not beg and he will not try to escape, he goes throughout the last of his recovering before the big day.

Its only when he only sees a maestre, and Duncan near the red tree that he realises who is he set to marry.
