I want to start trying to be more active on my socials again, so I’m going to start trying to post little sneak peeks and sentences from wips as much as I can. So without further ado, here’s a sentence from today’s wip:
He’d fallen asleep staring at those words, etched in black ink and in the shape of two birds taking off at his pulse point, you’d stolen my heart from the very beginning, and hadn’t known what to feel.
A dash of fluff, a pinch of humour and a heaped pile of delicately selected words - Savv’s writing always delights her audience as she creates tales which twist and turn towards the happy ending. Skilled with poetry and composition, it is not strange to spot her beautiful voice doing Podfics and songs too.
Introduce yourself!
Hello! I’m JadenGrace1, but you can call me Savannah or Savv! I’m a 22-(soon to be 23)-year-old goober that loves outer space and terrible puns. I get way too excited over random science facts and have become an avid listener of podcasts. My goal in life is to spread kindness and to someday write something that inspires others as much as other writers have inspired me!
Why did you want to join this zine ?
I wanted to join this zine because I wanted the opportunity to be a part of something bigger than myself in regards to fandom content. This is my first ever zine and it is such an honor to get to work alongside so many amazing creators. After seeing so much amazing content around Adam and Shiro’s relationship, I couldn’t help but fall in love with them myself.
What is your favourite time of the day and why ?
I have two favorite times. The first is what I like to call the Golden Hour – that time just before sunset when the light tries to shine its brightest before it has to go for the night, leaving everything behind it bathed in gilded gold silhouettes – a reminder to everyone to keep shining and that while night is coming, it won’t last forever. My second favorite time is that foggy period between too late and too early – the time when on cloudless nights the stars shine so bright and the world is so quiet that you can almost hear those celestial bodies singing down to you from the heavens; I can sit and stare and linger in a silence that isn’t deafened by my own thoughts but is instead tempered by the song of the stars.
and out of the darkness, you shine like the sun
brought me up to my feet and we shouldered our burdens as one
and out of the darkness: a platonic shiro & hunk fanmix {youtube}
this is my @paladinsecretsanta2k18 gift for @meythecat !! sorry it’s a bit late, but I hope you enjoy!
playlist, pertinent lyrics, and commentary under the cut
The concept of this playlist is basically a sort of call and response between Shiro and Hunk; every time Shiro is feeling down, Hunk comes along to pick him back up. I love the idea of Shiro being able to be honest about his insecurities and for the resident sunshine paladin to be able to be a rock for him to lean on.
I tend to be more lyric-focused than mood/sound-focused when I make fanmixes (there are a few exceptions), but I hope it still flows okay and that you like it!
1. Get Home - Bastille {Shiro}
we are the last people standing / at the end of the night
we are the greatest pretenders / in the cold morning light
there's a light in the bedroom / but it's dark
scattered around on the floor / all my thoughts
this is just another night / and we've had many of them
to the morning we're cast out / but I know I'll land here again
how am I gonna get myself back home?
2. Carry On - Fun. {Hunk}
though I've never been through hell like that
i've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
no one's ever gonna stop us now
'cause we are / we are shining stars
we are invincible / we are who we are
on our darkest day / when we're miles away
so we'll come, we will find our way home
if you're lost and alone / or you're sinking like a stone
carry on
may your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
carry on
3. Mess of Me - Switchfoot {Shiro}
we lock our souls in cages
we hide inside our shells
it's hard to free to the ones you love
when you can't forgive yourself
the sickness is myself
i made a mess of me / i wanna get back the rest of me
i've made a mess of me / i wanna spend the rest of my life alive
i've made a mess of me / i wanna reverse this tragedy
i've made a mess of me / i wanna spend the rest of my live alive
4. Lionhearted - Porter Robinson {Hunk}
no matter what they try, they won't take away our will to fight
if you shoot them down, we can make it right, we'll make it right
they broke the walls we guarded / but we don't care about it
we'll finish what we started / so promise me that
we'll be the lionhearted / for we don't care about it
we'll finish what we started / so promise me that they'll fall
5. Dead Man (Carry Me) - Jars of Clay {Shiro}
i try to lift a finger / but i don't think i can make the call
so tell me if i move / 'cause i don't feel anything at all
can you find a beat inside of me?
any pulse, getting worse / any pulse, getting worse
inside of me, can you find a beat?
carry me / i'm just a dead man
lying on the carpet / can't find a heartbeat
make me breathe / i wanna be a new man
tired of the old one / out with the old plan
6. Everybody - Ingrid Michaelson {Hunk}
we have fallen down again tonight
in this world it's hard to get it right
trying to make your heart fit like a glove
what it needs is love, love, love
happy is the heart that still feels pain
darkness drains and light will come again
swing open up your chest and let it in
just let the love, love, love begin
oh, everybody knows the love / everybody holds the love
everybody folds for love / everybody feels the love
everybody steals the love / everybody heals with love
just let the love, love, love begin
7. Tip Toe - Imagine Dragons {Shiro}
in the morning light let my roots take flight
watch me from above like a vicious dove
they don't see me come, who can blame them?
they never seem to catch my eye but i never wondered why
from your slanted view see the morning dew
sink into the soil, watch the water boil
they won’t see me run, who can blame them?
they never look to see me fly, so i never have to lie
i won't fall asleep / i won't fall asleep
hey yeah, don’t let 'em know we’re coming
hey yeah, tiptoe higher
take some time to simmer down, keep your head down low
hey yeah, tiptoe higher
8. I Saw It - Barenaked Ladies {Hunk}
i saw, i saw it / we all did
it hurt, i heard it / we all hid
you weighed and waited / you kept steady
you'd count and recount it / now you're ready
you took what we all hide / we all hide from
the hooks went right inside / that's where they hung
you think you deserve it / i won't stand and observe it
from this point on
we won't allow / this, brother
if we don't end this now / there'll be others
i won't let you down
9. Yet - Switchfoot {Shiro}
all attempts have failed / all my heads are tails
she's got teary eyes / i've got reasons why
i'm losing ground / and gaining speed
i've lost myself / or most of me
i'm ready for the final precipice
these days pass me by / i dream with open eyes
nightmares haunt my days / visions blur my nights
i'm so confused / what's true or false
what's fact or fiction / after all
i feel like i'm an apparition's pet
but you haven't lost me yet
no, you haven't lost me yet
i'll sing until my heart caves in
no, you haven't lost me yet
10. Best Day of My Life - American Authors {Hunk}
i had a dream so big and loud / i jumped so high i touched the clouds
i stretched my hands out to the sky / we danced with monsters through the night
i howled at the moon with friends / and then the sun came crashing in
but all the possibilities / no limits just epiphanies
i hear it calling / outside my window
i feel it in my soul
the stars were burning so bright / the sun was out 'til midnight
i say we lose control
this is gonna be, this is gonna be, this is gonna be
the best day of my life
everything is looking up, everybody up now
this is gonna be the best day of my life
“Uh…” Keith racks his brain for any other significant detail. “Red ones?”
The salesman (salesperson? salesalien?) gives him a look. “We’ve got at least twenty-seven different types of flora based on that description, kid. You’re gonna have to be more specific than that.”
Well. Keith isn't sure what to say. Green leaves with red berries is the extent of his knowledge on mistletoe. "Uh..." He fiddles with the loose cloth on his left elbow. "Whatever's on sale?"
~
Merry Mishaps: aka the one where Keith tries to find an alien version of mistletoe so he can kiss Hunk underneath it, but it ends up being a lot harder than he originally planned.
Also, he is absolutely head over heels for the team's resident yellow paladin and has Lots of Feelings about it.

Teaser/Summary:
“Ready?” she asks, an adventurous twinkle in her eyes sparking something longing in his.
A crooked smile tugs at the corner of his mouth, and he gestures almost sarcastically in front of him. “Lead the way, Princess.”

a.k.a. the team surprises Keith with a day filled with fun and adventure! Written for the following prompt: "I wish for this Christmas that Keith is offered a surprise: to spend a beautiful day discovering new landscapes, (on Earth or another Planet), exploring all day and be in total awe. At the end of the day he'd be enjoying a nice sweet meal under the starry sky~ The ones he loves would be with him during this special day!"
“The name’s Lance, by the way.” He holds a hand out to shake.
The man takes it and shakes it firmly. “Keith,” he states, and Lance is struck by how pretty the stranger’s — Keith’s — eyes are.
“Nice to meet you, Keith.” He grins broadly and is rewarded with a small smile, accompanied by the faintest of pinks on Keith’s cheeks.
“Likewise.”
