Magic in your fingertips, poison in your tongue

I write things sometimes. Occasionally. Every blue moon or so. Creator and mod for Freeruka Week, Otayuri Week, and a bunch of others. Petshop of Horrors fan, Leon Orcot stan, and general rarepair enthusiast! Salty af.

okay now that i'm getting into new fandoms i should probably do some sort of. pinned post.

anyway, hi, i'm howl! you'll likely know me from my dives into niche fandoms, rare pairs, archiving, or running fandom events! i go by howlingmoonrise basically everywhere (dreamwidth, twitter, bsky) but mainly only use tumblr.

@howlingmoonrise (this one) is the blog i do fandom interactions with! my writing and personal stuff also goes on here. i don't reblog most other things here for organizational reasons, except for petshop of horrors.

my main blog @commandersya is where basically all my other fandom reblogs go - so if you're looking for SCTIR, spirealm/kod, etc, anything that's not an original of mine or a reply is reblogged on there instead!

i love talking about my blorbos so feel free to send me asks or prompts anytime, though no promises on anything related to getting writing done :')

i've ran several events before, and as of 2025 i'm currently running the mysclasskinkfest and sclassbigbang.

Edit: if you're looking for my NSFW fics, I haven't deleted them! They're just login-locked on AO3, so you need to have an account to see them.

a writer looking appraisingly at a bunch of tropes, and instead of "fuck, marry, kill," it's "use, avert, subvert"

You see, the problem with writing is that it is always easier to just lie facedown on the floor and make incoherent noises.

I can do it. I can write a chapter. I am capable of putting sentences together. I know what a comma is. I am Aware of the Character.

writing your fave having sex with with their love interest is OUT writing your fave shamefully jerking off and coming pathetically fast at just the idea of fucking their love interest is IN

not now kitten. daddy's realizing that the scene he invested 1000 words into could be significantly improved but only if he started over from scratch

"You should create for yourself" and "it's okay to feel discouraged when creating your own original projects if no one interacts with them" are two sentences that should be able to co-exist with each other

[awakefor48hours]

On the one hand, you should kill that capitalist in your head that tells you to make art only for the enjoyment of other people. On the other hand, it's totally fine to be disappointed that you spent hours or even days on something that only got 4 notes. You can feel both ways.
