Clipped Wings

Clipped Wings is my slow burn Rookanis fic that is going to take me some time to properly finish and release in order, but I like sharing little snippets. I figured it might be good to have a post collecting each section as I release them. I'll be adding and updating the order as things get put out there~

Chapters: 1. The Botched Job 2. Dear Runaway Heart 3. You Weren't Enough 4. Demon in the Depths (Lucanis POV) 5. Blood on the Doorstep 6. Just A Spark Read on AO3 Excerpts/WIP: 1. Ossuary Rescue (Lucanis POV) 2. House de Riva Summons 3. The Almost Kiss Aftermath 4. Telling the Talons She's Gone (Lucanis POV) Bonus 1: Drunken Story Time with the Boys Bonus 2: I Ramble about Spite and Lucanis Bonus 3: They Put Lucanis On Ice

I'm putting this on a break

I really love writing this fic, but I hit a bit of a depressive slump and also stuff got busy around me! So I haven't been able to write as much as I want or write with a quality I'm happy to share. So, instead of trying to force it and have subpar chapters (if anything at all) to post each week, I'm taking a break to rebuild the buffer. And also to better draft the planned plot so I can make things feel more connected again! I think my first few chapters are really strong, especially side by side, and I want to keep that quality!

With any luck, it'll be a short break, maybe a few weeks tops, and I'll have some more slow burn Rookanis to share with you all. Chapter 6 took me far too long to post and I had to drag myself over hot coals to rewrite it. It's better and I like this version, but it shouldn't have been that rough to do! So I'm taking a breather.

Thank you for your patience and support, and hopefully I'll have more to share soon.

#I know only like ~5 people here will see this and care #and it feels a little Serious for a silly story I write for fun #but! it also felt needed instead of just ghosting #I also!! will be using this as an excuse to get back into playing DAV to keep stuff fresh when I sit down to write #I wish I could have gotten another chapter or two out before doing this #but then I might've felt the need to rewrite stuff and that's a bad loop to get stuck in #so I'd rather write stuff out and make changes before I post it all lmao #(am I gently kicking myself to having Renn and Luca discuss Spite on the way back to the Lighthouse? Maybe.)#anyways Apologies and Thank You #I'm Not finished with these dorks but I need to slap them back in the box and shake it for a bit again #hopefully I''ll be able to get back to engaging with my friends and the fandom at large with this too #I miss y'all but Agh the chronic fatigue and depression has me

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

manuciruja

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

smadsel

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

smadsel

that’s not the whole flag, now is it

hey staff what the fuck

Pride Icons are now available for June! Made one for Nyra with the various examples/combos of how they can work :) You can also get one for yourself if you don't want one for a character! ((and obviously multiple flags can be used especially if you want one flag for the flower colors and another for the BG))

Order on Ko-Fi!!
