After months without touching this fic I'm finally updating. Hopefully, now I can get back on schedule!

Techza Halloween Week Day 3!

Honestly, I had this idea for a long time and this was my excuse to write it.

Halloween Techza Week Day 1!

Gunna try to be on time with these for a whole week, it'll be a miracle if I make it two days... Hopefully aiming for short and sweet makes it easier to keep up with!

I love your fics! Honestly, the King's Pet might be one of my top ten favourites! I would love to hear you ramble about your ideas!

I'm glad you liked them!

The King's Pet is definitely on track to be one of my better and more structured fics at this point which is strange because it's the only fic I didn't intend to make more than one chapter for. depending on where you read it you might know it's already fully outlined and I'm really excited to get to the next few chapters and try to write these characters I've never written like Niki, who will be a big part of the next three chapters.

I can't wait to get into the more overtly romantic chapters of the fic because there are so many cute moments and I didn't get to actually write about anything like that in Philtatos since normally I imagine their romance as just happening after years of being comfortable around each other.

I'm trying my hardest not to work on anything new until my WIPs are closer to finished because I refuse to leave anything unfinished and three WIPs will destroy me. However, I really want to do the Halloween Techza Week specifically for the days 4 & 7 prompts because I've had this idea of Techno being immortal in the same way as a phoenix that I'm absolutely in love with! Like, if he dies, he stays dead for a certain amount of years until he regenerates (as a full adult) and returns to Phil. Imagine Philza watching Technoblade die and grieving until Techno finally digs his way out of the grave everyone buried him in and shows up at his door.

I think if I write it well enough, I could make people cry and that's my only goal in life!

I've had a fic on hiatus for over a year that I promised to come back to but just never did in favor of working on something new. The whole thing is fully outlined and just needs to be written so why not come back to it now?

Hopefully now that I've gotten back into Techza I'll be able to write all the oneshot ideas I have written down.

(This is published on Wattpad too btw)

I stayed up till 2 finishing this

"Phil opens his eyes, he doesn't even try to stop the tears as they fall. “I’ll miss you.” He whispers the admission, his fingers massaging into Techno’s hair. He doesn't want to let go. He knows he has to.

Techno wipes away a single tear from Phil’s cheek, knowing it means nothing compared to how quickly it’s replaced. “I will never forget you.” For a moment, Techno contemplates leaning back in. He wants one more kiss. He wants to kiss away the others' tears. He wants to tell him everything will be alright and he’d never leave without him. He wants a lot of things, but he steps away anyway."

I have a chapter I have to post on the 5th that is only halfway finished... summer is not a productive time for me

[fancy-mousetrap]

Thinking about getting back into writing Techza fics. My wip has been on hiatus forever, and I really wanna make another chapter for "Philtatos".

[fancy-mousetrap]

I hate how long it takes me to get a chapter out. I'm not gonna do anything about it but... I still hate it.

'“Yeah” My arms come up, holding the pistol just like he showed all that time ago. “See ya.” I wish I could've kept that smile when I pulled the trigger. I wish both of ours could have lasted long enough to fully convince the other we were fine with how this ended. But the moment his smile fell, our pretending came to an end.'

An excerpt from a short story I wrote based off of a singular choice in the game "Don't Escape 2: The Outbreak".

'But no matter how much I claim to understand I know it’s not something I can just let go of. There’s an eternity ahead of us and if I can spend any amount of that at his side I’ll be more than just content. “I can wait for as long as you need.” My hand raises to tuck another piece of hair behind his ear. “If you’d let me, that is.” A sharp exhale is all the answer I need. I’ve always been quite patient and if it’s for Phil I can manage to be even more so.' - Philtatos (on ao3 & Wattpad)

Dancing

I was dancing

Like I had a million times

Nothing new to me

My partner however

He was new

I had danced with many before him

But never someone as skilled

Never as agile and perfect

The room was poorly lit

Dark

Yet so was he

A figure masked in darkness

A tangible silhouette

I was mesmerized by eyes I couldn’t see

Enchanted by a face I couldn’t touch

Enamored by a beauty I'd never know

Once we had finished

I stood to face my partner

But he was gone

And the light was back on

One Hero

Name one hero who was happy.

One hero whose life didn’t end too soon.

One hero whose sanity remained long after their days in the sun.

One hero whose family remained by their side to the very end.

One hero whose body was left unmangled.

One hero whose tale isn’t tainted by death and despair.

One hero whose epilogue is more than their forced blind acceptance.

One hero whose tale isn’t a tragedy.

One hero whose trauma was handled with care.

One hero whose story was allowed an ending.

One hero who wasn’t torn apart for the sake of others.

One hero who didn’t have to sacrifice something.

One hero who wasn’t pushed past their limits.

One hero who was allowed to take a break.

One hero who wanted to fight.

One hero who didn’t regret their journey.

One hero who got to go home.

One hero who died of old age.

One hero who got their perfect happy ending,

One hero who was allowed to keep it.

Patroclus

To me, he was similar to Icarus.

Brave, courageous, ambitious,

and oh so very stupid.

Always longing for what he knew would only hurt him

For Icarus, it was the sun.

For Achilles, it was the notability.

It was his honor.

The chance to be known by all for something great.

All for the sake of his hubris.

I wonder if Icarus fell as he did.

Screaming and fighting with every last inch of himself to regain what he knows he lost in the pursuit.

I wonder as well if Daedalus felt as I did.

Had he watched his sons fall in horror?

Had his advice fallen on deaf ears?

Had he known his son's longing would lead him to death?

Had he warned Icarus?

Had Icarus cared?

Either way,

I suppose there's one definite contrast between us.

He was able to witness the death of Icarus.

While I was only able to be the catalyst for Achilles' own.

Do You?

Do you miss it?

Those days in your castle.

Sitting among the other boys as they fawned over your greatness.

Sharing longing glances with him from across the room.

That quiet moment on the beach where time seemed to pause.

Do you miss it?

Those days in the sun.

Laying side by side in that mountain cave away from prying eyes.

Worries casted aside in favor of warmth and love.

That feeling of being able to eat the world raw.

Do you miss it?

Those early days of war.

The tent placed strategically on the edge of camp.

The security of knowing you could protect him.

The glory.

The recognition.

The bloodshed.

Do you regret it?

That day you stopped fighting.

Watching idly as fewer men returned than had left.

Standing aside as he begged you to help them.

Staying put while he ran to war in your stead.

Letting so many die for your own ego.

Letting him die for your own ego.

Do you think it was worth it?

Losing him.

Having to hold his body in your arms.

Shedding tears for a love ended by your own hand.

Do you?
