Intro

I thought this might be a good idea so why not try it. So Hello! I'm a silly writer! You may call me Lion. I identify as Aromantic and my pronouns are she/her.

I really like Fantasy and often end up very Slice-of-life but most of all I like coming up with a concept and talking about it and trying to build on it! I love talking with people about their OCs or their worlds or their WIPs! So feel free to tell me about them, I'd always love love love to hear anything

Present WIPs!

I have about 4 actual ideas I want to work on and build on but I'll introduce two of my favorites for now, though the titles may change. They're all still very rough but I hope to gain the courage to talk about them and keep building them. I also don't know what to say so if curiosity strikes ask away!

Little Town of Wonders: Sage, a bit a hermit in her home, wishes on a star and suddenly finds herself with a stranger she takes into her home! Promptly named Altair or Al for short the two start getting to know the townspeople that anxious Sage has avoided so far. The two, later with Sage's Neighbor Quinn and local Baker Haden navigate people and how to be human.

Way of Beasts: Callum, a battle mage protecting the border of the kingdom got majorly injured and was retired early. Due to his tactical skill and in battle knowledge he was hired as an advisor and moved to live at the royal court. There he meets Neilan, a prodigal court mage whose performance he accidentally interrupts. As the two butt heads again and again due to mutual prejudice but keep being put together, they agree to teach each other the way of their magic and maybe fall in love through the process.

Curious about my writing?

Here's some pieces I have written! I consider them little concepts of blurbs that I wrote and posted, so they're also really really rough.

Unnamed Rebirth Enemies to Lovers Piece

The Siren's Call

To Believe

Tradition Broken

[kind-lion]

Why does Neilan find Callum so annoying is it just the interupted show or is there something more lurking in the depths?

It's certainly a way it started but there is more to it! While I for some reason struggle writing them even as I develop their world I have written one little piece of that so here's a snippet from it that I think explains it well. The piece itself was a test to go try the magic system and how I could describe it and all, a performance of Neilan’s at court with Callum simply sitting in the audience and watching.

---

Humbly bowing, their eyes looked back to Callum, still sitting in his seat and clapping like the rest. His face however was unchanged. The expression was impossible to read, no smile, not even a tug of lips. No annoyance at Neilan’s clear aptitude at magic nor the kind of reverence that they were so used to.

Surely however, he was impressed, Neilan thought to themself. He must be blown away at all the details coming together and refusing to show it.

They wouldn’t admit the lack of reaction was grating their nerves. They’ll simply do better next time and Callum would have to be impressed. They had to rub under his nose that they were better. That was all. Callum didn’t belong on court and Neilan would make it clear to him.

---

So a big part is simply Callum's way of being, just how he is. There's resentment toward him being lower class but still now being part of the Royal Court and Neilan hates it.

A lot of what Callum is opposes Neilan. He's, especially at the start, unnerving, feared and appears shaggy and Neilan is naturally just turning their nose up at him.

Callum was also a soldier and the dirty work they do, killing the monsters at the border is scorned. Neilan, as the type of mage they are, almost naturally despises all battle mages like Callum. They are brutes who don't know the finesse that comes with magic (the inverse is also true, that Battle mages think of entertainment mages like Neilan as having less power when using magic) and this mutual dislike is in part something deeper, stemming from Propaganda from the Royal Bloodline.

But these two are also just my little dolls to put into situations. With all affection they're nuisances in my brain with too much lore. But I also just like worldbuilding and making lore.

[kind-lion]

What is your oc Neilan like?

Oh! A fun question! Their verse haunts my every waking day as I'm building it, It's ridiculous honestly.

What are they like? Well, if you met them while on the royal court (if you found them that is, they tend to be quite hard to track outside of shows) you'd find them to be charming. Neilan is a noble and is proud of that, so they can be very prideful and definitely snooty. They'd certainly show off their skill in magic as well, making little but very detailed ice sculptures, symphonies out of the wind, beautiful light shows with fire or molding the earth into puppets to command. They're a prodigy and hired on the kings court after all, they delight in showing off these skills. If you meet them like that, there is however a certain distance to everything. A coldness perhaps, it's pretty performative, they have a role to play and they play it damn well and they like it.

If you disliked whatever little show they offered they might curse you out under their breath, perhaps talk badly behind your back, gossip and rumors and all that. After all, who doesn't like their shows? Though if you did like it and grew closer to them you'd be one of the people they'd gossip to.

That's what they're like, at least in normal situations. What are they like with say Callum? Much more expressive mostly, though that's a different question to tackle. For now, that should give a good impression of Neilan and who they are!

[kind-lion]

what is your favorite part of your wip Tradition Broken?

I'm sorry if you asked this a while ago! It seems I didn't get a notification! I've been busy too (actually started writing a longer story gasp) (Do I know how to share it? No, we're working on it)

To answer the question! Of the blurbs I've written and posted I actually think it's one of my weakest, but I do like quite a few things still. I think I did quite well with even having such a short thing to make it seem a little organic, to work with what a places traditions and customs could be. Like a glimpse into a broader world and story? The protagonist isn't named but she still has a voice of her own I feel, and that's always very fun. I'm quite weak when it comes to writing in longer form too, so that being quite more detailed is an accomplishment to me.

Maybe I should work and build on it, I adore dragons deeply after all, they're such fun creatures with both established things to work with and a lot of leeway for creativity.

Thank you for taking an interest! I hope I answered in a satisfying manner :3

[abiteofhoney-deactivated2025030]

here’s another snippet from The Noble Prince :) i really like this one

⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️

“Don’t let him burn!”

Kieran doesn’t hesitate in stepping up to the door, despite the guard’s warning.

He peers into the cell to find her on her knees in the center of the room, face to the ceiling as she screams. Kieran looks at the guard next to him. “Has anyone tried talking to her?”

“Told her to stop. Did fuck all, didn’t it?”

Kieran looks back towards the woman.

“Don’t let him burn!”

“I saw your prince,” he says. His voice is barely a whisper, but she seems to hear him over her own screaming, silencing instantly.

Her empty eyes meet his, her voice soft and smooth as if she hasn’t been screaming for over twelve hours. “Did you? Tell me.”

Kieran nods, ignoring the way the guards stare at him in various shades of bewilderment and anger. “I saw him as I slept. He was - he was burning. He didn’t leave this time. He stayed with her.”

“Don’t let him burn,” she cries softly. “Don’t let him burn, Kieran Noble. Please. He does not deserve to burn.”

“How does she know your name?” a guard hisses.

“I told her it,” he says simply, omitting the fact that he never told her his surname, yet she knows it anyway. He turns back to the woman who might be God. Or at least something otherworldly. “He didn’t burn. It was just a dream. He didn’t burn.”

Her entire body shudders. “I can feel it. He’s burning. He’s burning and he doesn’t even know it. My poor prince.”

Friday kiss tag

tagged by @the-golden-comet here

Rules: From your Story/WIP, share a kiss. It can be any kiss—from familial pecks on the cheek, forehead kisses, platonic smooches, to full-blown makeouts. Spread the love! ❤️

From my wip TPKODR their first kiss (the lines after this clip would make y'all glare 🤣)

Daimhín looked over at Oisìn's laugh as he knew it was a rare occurrence, the ringing noise of it was music to his ears. He would never tire or the sound. Especially if he got to see Oisìn's smile that went with it. He leaned forward broadcasting his intention so Oisìn could opt out. Their lips met in a brief touch before Oisìn leaned into the kiss. Daimhín enjoyed the warmth of Oisìn's lips against his. The kiss deepened slightly and Daimhín shifted to pull Oisìn closer.

A great thing about writing is consistently going 'why are you like this' when I indeed know why my own characters are in fact Like That. I know why you can't get your shit together I did this to you! In fact I am doing this to you right now! You're the worst (I say both in affection and hatred)

[misscrazyfangirl321]

Characters that have never experienced affection before, or haven't experienced it in a long time, finally getting to experience it? Top tier.

Said character freezing up for a second, not really knowing how to respond, but not wanting it to stop? T o p t i e r.

Said character trying to clumsily return the affection in their own way, because this is Good and they don't want it to stop? T O P T I E R.

[zonnemaagd]

Writing a story about an android learning to be human is fun and all especially because you kinda need to figure out what it means to be human in the first place especially after doing so much research into closing the gap between humans and 'other' animals

[kind-lion]

I've found I love doing that, writing something or someone that struggles with the idea of humanity and what it means to be human! I have like, at least three characters that do that? But this is a shoutout to Al specifically. Silly Star boy (literal)

[imsodishy]

I know we all love when writers go deep down a research rabit hole on something really specific for the sake of a fic (I certainly am not immune to doing ridiculous research into minute details for no real reason lol)

but allow me, just for a moment, to sing the praises of ✨️vagueness✨️

Unfamiliar with a city's precise geography? Be real vague.

Want a character to be a doctor but don't know how surgery works? Mention it in passing.

Character plays a sport you know nothing about? Vague it up!

You don't know what specific brand of a thing would have been popular in that time and place? Go generic baby!!

You really can just hand-wave stuff that's not where you want the focus of your story to be without anything falling apart. The audience will look where you point them, like a magic trick! If the research is stopping you up and making progress hard or frustrating you can just... not do it.

Okay two questions for the AMA:

What is the bioluminescent sea? It sounds cool, I want to hear about it

Merfolk and sirens are listed differently - what’s the difference?

Feel free to ramble :)

Good questions. 😈 I hope you enjoy the ramble @mk-writes-stuff

The bioluminescence sea glows due to a overpopulation of luminescent plankton according to the locals but in reality the water glows on its own as well, they just don't know it. There is a mixture of colors and they swirl together in ways that has mesmerized some pirates into ship wrecks. Although it is still a lovely sight to see it border's the kingdom of Xerex and Tarak and it holds the main portal to the pirate island that was once faélánd. It has every type of sea monster that the others seas have and is the mermaid capital.

sirens are the water fae and are evil, they turned their backs fully on the ways of old and went dark and slowly corrupted the older they are the more monstrous they appear, they reproduce asexually after feasting on the ones they drag down into the depths. They sing songs and whisper to allure the sailors into the water and once in the water they will never return 10/10 don't recommend an encounter.

Mermaids are of no relation to the fae, they prefer merfolk as their are males as well. They are peaceful but not to be messed with, the royals all have gemstones embedded in their skin. The ones that appear almost human have human soulmates. The ones with more scales are fully Merfolk. They can walk on land if they have a human soulmate otherwise they can't. They have a allure as well but those immune to the siren are immune although they hear the constant whispering. They have accidentally killed sailors if weak willpower as they would hear the whisper's and give into temptation. They are a matriarch driven society and Queen Coral is the current queen her daughter Anne will be the next despite having a human mate. They have a treaty with the pirates and are a honor driven society who believes in repaying debts...from you saved my life you are welcome to stay here or ask for aid in the future to an eye for an eye type of situation.

I hope that answered your questions 🙂

[wyked-ao3]

I'm quite curious to hear about either queen :o

Queen Kia of Tarak is Jade's mother. She has five children aging from 35-18. She has an alliance with the spirit fae queen that most people are unaware of and in this week alone she had went through three advisor's 0_o she gives the appearance of the kind Queen around other people but the second she doesn't have to wear that mask she doesn't.

Queen rhianna is the Queen if the spirit fae and the other fae royalty bows to her. She has made a deal with a goddess and will do what is necessary to fulfill her side if it. She left Amon her son for dead when at age 13 he presented with the power of a seer/ necromancer as that is a skill that females have while the men of the race tend to have more spirit talker/spirit walker powers.

✨ head up seven up // tov editing tag ✨

—

i don’t even know how many people have tagged me in a heads up seven up, but thank you to everyone who did (most recently was @wyked-ao3, i know that much). since i’m editing tov right now, i’ll just use a paragraph from there. it’s technically 8 lines, but… shut up. 😌

without further ado, let’s get into it :)

—

His memories flowed within me like a chasm to a world unknown, filling my sight with flashing images of a time unforgotten. I witnessed in vivacity Hilbert’s youth beginning at the years of his childhood in the polished streets of the Elvon Ring, where he chased his friends and paralyzed them in gem and stone until he had the chance to catch up. Another memory featured a man of grey hair and bushy, knit brows reprimanding a teenage Hilbert, who stood in a deep squat and reattempted the magic he was apparently learning. The old Limious rebuked him once again, the demand for perfection weighing heavy. Once again, seasons shifted with the bright of spring’s colours as Hilbert’s memories revealed a beautiful woman-- with batting eyelashes and an amatory smile-- who leaned into his chest when he draped his arm around her and told her his lung and soul belonged to her. Pieces of Hilbert I was not entitled to discover revealed themselves to me as a guilty pleasure, one I knew better than to indulge in. Yet, the glory of his prime tempted me from leaving. Privacy, as much as it was a right, was not something I was willing to donate to my new mentor.

I know I wrote the book, but I'm going to talk about it like I didn't for a second.

Passages like this are the reason why Alan's morality fascinates me. Even in the beginning of the book, this man was doing stuff like this. Things that are super hypocritical and ethically wrong, but he does it anyways. And the way he justifies these actions are just so interesting because it really shows the loopholes this man will go through to justify what he's doing, even if it's wrong.

idk. i love alan as a character. everyone who didn't vote for him in the character polls, i'm convinced yall just don't know enough about him. because personally, i find him more interesting than caramel sometimes, and that says a lot.

ill leave this as an open tag!
