Hi. This is weird asf for me to write, so bear with me here. I’m Irefy, or Ira or Iffy, if that’s what you want to use. I’m currently writing mostly for Epic: The Musical, but have actually been getting pretty into the original poems and Greek tragedy in general. I read a lot, mostly fantasy, and occasionally post about the Magisterium series (Holly Black & Cassandra Clare). Shoutout to anyone who knows what that is.
Now that that’s out of the way:
My AO3
My Bluesky
Come yap here or in my asks. I swear I won’t think you’re weird, even if we’ve never directly interacted before. We’re all at the devil’s sacrament. No DNIs or anything, we’re all here to have fun.
You may know me from my fics, or maybe my magisterium timeline.

My Fics
What do I say? (What do I do, for something like this?)
Oh man. My first posted fic. It’s real short, basically just a drabble. ATLA
The Fires Of Hate
I still like this one. It’s the Purge from a Camelot knight’s perspective. The first of a series I haven’t finished, but it stands well on its own. Merlin.
Red Rage
Sequel to The Fires Of Hate, though it doesn’t really read like one. We switch perspectives again, and see the purge from the point of view of a little girl. Merlin.
The Peace Of Night
Another short one, 647 words. Just Danny enjoying the stars. Danny Phantom.
Promises (Broken and Kept)
The Ultimate Enemy forces Sam to make a decision that could save them all, at a cost which will break her to pay. Danny Phantom.
Growing Seeds
Another short one. Made for the nine year anniversary of the Iron Trial. Call struggles to understand and accept the new friendships he’s been faced
with in his first months at the Magisterium. Magisterium.
A Field Of Dandelions
Sequel to Growing Seeds. Made for the five year anniversary of the end of the series. Takes place post-cannon. Magisterium.
Embers Of Time
Stereotypical Zuko tells the Gaang about his scar fic—with a slight twist. ATLA
Holding On
Now that he’s home, Odysseus is ready to forget the past and enjoy a night spent in his wife’s arms. Unfortunately for him, he can’t escape the pain which still clings to his restless mind. (Yea, please read the tags on this one guys.) Epic: The Musical
Letting Go
Penelope struggles with what is and what could have been. Sequel to Holding On. Epic: The Musical. The Odyssey (characters and some story elements)
Would You Do The Same? (So help me you better)
Perimedes’ perception of the world falls apart. Crack taken seriously. Basically, how the crew finds out Odysseus’ sister is Eurylochus’ wife. Epic: The Musical, The Odyssey (again, characters)
Don’t think you can out swim the past (it’s always close behind)
Odysseus, suffering from being wounded during the mutiny, attempts to navigate his changed relationship with the crew and his place in it, all while being forced to face a secret which belongs far beneath the waves…mermaid!au, based off the little mermaid, one of my favorites. Epic: The Musical, The Odyssey (mixed characterization, still mostly an epic fic but does use some Odyssey concepts as well.)
the funny thing about this is that both people born in the 2000s are reblogging this freaking out because they arent ready to be adults and people who were born before the 2000s are freaking out about how they feel old and that it cant be happening because all people born in the 2000s are like 4
Go to the inaugurations of littlely known artists’ exhibitions.
We are always begging for people to attend, there actually is the “hack” to invite your whole family but tell them to pretend they don’t know you. People with money are more willing to buy your work if they think many people likes it, so your mere presence eating our cheese and canapes will be a great helps. Please bring whoever you want too.
one time a pal of my pals was having a tough time selling their work in an art exhibit and called us up on the last day, ‘us’ being about 8 students who were Very hungry and also bored. We put on the nicest/artsiest clothes we had available (one dude had a legit fancy suit and put on some shades which were Bright Pink he looked like a movie star I swear) and rolled up to the show in pairs, separately. Fine Art Pal has some nice paintings! but nobody is really paying attention to them, so after getting some fancy cheese cubes in a manner that did not betray that we were actually a ravenous pack of starving students we casually wander around the show and then, fairly individually, drift to a stop by their work. Some of us even walked away, then came back a bit later ‘captivated’ by the art (it was actually really nice but recall we were all poor as shit and this was a help hustle). Our group’s interest naturally caught other folks, and eventually there was a small clump of about 15 people musing over this art, and within ten minutes the biggest piece had been snatched up by a shrewd investor. by the end of the exhibit every single piece was sold. It helped pay off the artist’s student debt and on that success they got into another exhibit! They’ve been doing well ever since.
So yes, please attend new artist shows, you get free cheese, get to look at nice art, and you can really help out people who deserve more attention.
Someone mentioned how they were having a hard time creating a world for their fantasy fiction geographically because they kept reinventing the island of Britain, which also happened to my good close enemy George R. R. Martin. I would like to suggest North Carolina. I know that sounds absolutely ridiculous but North Carolina has an awesome geographic setup for a fantasy kingdom, I think. Inhospitable barrier islands, constantly shifting shoals in the sound, swamps with alligators, venomous snakes and carnivorous plants, lots of very flat and somewhat sparsely populated farmland, foothills, mines, mountains full of mysterious phenomenon that were originally very difficult to navigate and people still get lost in today. It kind of rocks.
it feels so evil that you can't still access your university online library after you graduate *remembers my principles* it feels so evil that everyone can't access to that stuff all the time

Paid service with no ads: Well, if they're not funding it with ad revenue, they need to charge us something.

he wasn’t even there to be a contestant he joined the crew as a CHINESE TEACHER but the directors noticed his good looks and begged him to compete. poor guy made it to the finals and if he had been one of the winners he would have been contractually forced to be in a boy band whether he wanted to or not
Hanahaki disease is a psychosomatic illness. It's a thing that your body does in response to stress over constantly repressing/concealing your feelings in settings with high background magic. It's like you've been ignoring pain for a long time and suddenly your vision starts going dark, because your affected body is just YANKING on random alerts trying to get you to PAY ATTENTION there is a PROBLEM. Yes the flowers do really exist. So do non-magical psychosomatic symptoms. The flowers aren't special.
This does of course open up the trope to options for non-romantic concealed feelings. Which I think is great. There is something viscerally satisfying about the person who seems so outwardly chipper coughing and hacking and spitting up Depression Flowers so now everyone has to know they're hurting. Isn't there?
Hanahaki but it’s your body desperately needing you to love and care for it while your mind is trapped in the body that doesn’t fit, that’s wrong as it destroys you from the inside out the longer you aren’t able to get help to make your body feel like you
