[faeriefabled]

hello! thank you for visiting my page. my name is amber (she/her). i’m working on my ba in english/creative writing and am giving myself a creative outlet when i have some downtime. this account is low activity and independent. i’m mostly focusing on literary characters, but i might add some others here and there. i use the beta editor with xkit rewritten. this blog is iconless.

find my muses and rules here.

currently reading: emily wilde’s encyclopaedia of faeries by heather fawcett. the letters of shirley jackson by shirley jackson. currently watching: nothing! i’m open to suggestions. recently finished: a haunting on the hill by elizabeth hand. the traitors on paramount+. to be read: a psalm for the wild-built by becky chambers. frankenstein by mary shelley.

I've felt more inclined to write original characters lately. I'm going to create an account solely for them so I can focus on them for now. I'll post a link once it's ready for anyone interested.

STRANGER THINGS 4

[talktoten-a-deactivated20240813]

friendly reminder that I’m comfortable with MINOR godmodding if:

it’s genuinely in the interests of advancing plot (e.g. ‘Pass the screwdriver?’ and you can assume my muse passes the screwdriver over, or even just that your muse ended up with the screwdriver one way or another, without having to stop the reply altogether for my interjection)

it’s NOT my muse’s dialogue, inner or outer

it’s REASONABLE for my muse (e.g. if they’ve already made it quite clear the screwdriver is a sentimentally precious family heirloom or something, then the screwdriver might not reasonably change hands)

the reply isn’t solely about my muse’s actions, thoughts or feelings, but rather is about your muse, with reference to mine

you are willing to accept criticism & critique and change the reply if I can’t reasonably see my muse doing that

roleplaying, for me, is about exploring characters and worlds through story. Interaction with both the muse and the world, then, is vital, and I do not mind sacrificing a small thing from one to significantly advance the other. It’s always a good idea to talk to me if you’re uncertain and it will be easier once we know each other better, but I just wanted to put this out there so you lot know what I’m comfortable with. There’s a lot of ‘no godmodding whatsoever!!’ going around in this community and obviously, with big things, it’s a no-go – but I’m still more interested in the story.

Kaitlyn Dever

[faeriefabled]

i'm adding a fandomless oc to my muse list. her name is cora. she's in her early 20's and works at a bowling alley/arcade. she feels stuck in the job, but she's a manager and it pays her just enough to scrape by. she didn't go to college, so she feels like she has limited options elsewhere. i'll post a full bio here and on my carrd later. if anyone's interested, let me know. i'm willing to stick her into pretty much any verse! or if you have an oc she might jive with, even better!

[faeriefabled]

here's her bio

KAITLYN DEVER as Betsy Mallum in Dopesick (2021—) ↳ 1.03 “The 5th Vital Sign” dir. Michael Cuesta

[faeriefabled]

Name: Corinne "Cora" Ferguson Age: 23 Birthday: July 19 Sun Sign: Cancer

Cora grew up in a religious household with her parents and younger sister, Naomi. In her childhood she ascribed to the religious teachings because they were all she knew, but she questioned them as she got older. She realized as a young teen that she had feelings for other girls and kept it a secret from her family, especially her parents. She wanted to tell Naomi, but telling her felt too risky.

Cora started dating a girl named Vanessa during her senior year and got great at hiding it, which gave her a false sense of security. A friend of the family saw she and Vanessa at the movies one night and told her parents. They were livid, but (to her surprise) they didn't throw her out. After the initial conversation, they took to pretending it never happened.

At midnight on her eighteenth birthday, her father woke her up in the middle of the night. He gave her ten minutes to pack what she could. She left and stayed with Vanessa for a while until she found a cheap, run down apartment she could afford from her new management position at the bowling alley where she worked. She and Vanessa's relationship didn't survive the stress of Cora's new situation. She hoped to find something new for work, but she feels too afraid to try when she scrapes by without much issue as is.

She cut all contact with her family after her sudden departure, including Naomi. She felt bad about it, but she didn't know how to talk to her after everything. Recently, she's thought about trying to reconnect but doesn't know where to start.

↪     𝑺𝑳𝑬𝑬𝑷𝒀 𝑯𝑶𝑳𝑳𝑶𝑾 .    (  a  series  of  sentence  starters  from  the  1999  film   “  sleepy hollow  ” .  adjust  phrasing  as  necessary . )  

help ,  here  —  lend a hand .

just a moment ,  if i may  —

i stand up for sense  &  justice .

do make certain you meet with success .

such a day for such a sad farewell .

this is such a silly game .

be a sport  &  stop complaining !

play along ,  you must .

forgive me ,  i didn’t know .

we haven’t heard your name yet ,  friend .

you need some manners .

if we could speak alone ?

how much have your superiors bothered to tell you ?

you are horribly old - fashioned ,  aren’t you ?

feel free to form your own opinion ,  though it appears you already have .

it seems i’ve made matters worse .

i’ll leave you to your business .

excuse me  …  i should apologize .

is it me ,  or are you this nervous around all women ?

do be a dear  &  tell me all about it .

sounds like an extraordinary place to live a life .

there is no such thing as magic .

to call a person superstitious is to imply they fear magic .

poets have silly notions .

you do believe me now ,  don’t you ?

you need less big words ,  &  more common sense .

what the hell are you doing ?

i am not here for revenge .  i am here to bring justice .

i manage fine alone .

i deserve to help you .  don’t you see how much this means ?

what are you spying on ?

i beg you ,  no more ,  please .

i will not allow it .  i will not !

why was i not told of this ?

you should step outside .

sorry for disturbing you .  i thought a forgotten candle was burning .

having trouble sleeping ?

i have something to show you ,  if you have a moment .

these scars .  how did you get them ?

oh ,  you are hopeless .

i have a gift for you .  true magic which even you will not be able to deny .

are you saying i should be frightened ?

what will it take for you to realize this is no laughing matter ?

don’t be afraid  …  don’t be afraid .

you promised justice .  people have put their trust in you .

why would you do such a thing ?

leave me .  you are not welcome here .

allow me some time .

the things i said to you before  …  i was wrong to say them .

every word you spoke had truth in it .

if you want me to go ,  i will .  do you want me to leave ?

i no longer know what i think or what i feel .

why are you so afraid ?  is there truly such harm in uncertainty ?

i should be going  …  good day to you .

i’m one of the few people who likes you .

i apologize if i worried you .

my god  …  what has happened ?

yes ,  i did notice that ,  thank you .

i am a bad habit .  there’s nothing for it .

don’t let him get you .

lay still ,  [ name ] .  do not move .

i’m drawing bad blood from the wound .

you were half - drowned when they found you .

i serve a fine purpose alive .

midnight seems an appropriate time .

hide in my room  &  bolt the door til i return .

i was getting worried .

do you have anything to clean it with ?

i know you saw me .

i know you followed me last night .

i appreciate your concern .

you are so upset now  …  &  yet ,  you seemed in such good spirits last night .

why have i not seen your face for so long ?

i have been reading your journal .

what would you have me believe ?

if you think i am behind this ,  say it .

call me a liar ,  then ,  &  a  murderer .

what is stopping you ?  what has happened to your ability to transcend sentimentality ?

don’t dare stand looking as if you still care for me ,  after all that you have said .

if i were to confess ,  would that ease your suffering ?  would that make it easier for you to hate me ?

the next person to lay hands on me will have a bullet .

you do not know all that has happened .

why  …  why are you like this ?

to hell with this place  &  all the people here .

won’t you change your mind ?  what can i say to convince you ?

take me with you .  there’s nothing left for me here .

forgive me .  i failed you .

you  …  you’re alive .

no one will believe your lies .

i am not going to kill you .  not me  …

you cannot kill what is already dead .
