i do not regret you

band au / exes au / social au

feat. deniall x snowbaz x kerixie

a @mooncello and @monbons collab with special guests @whatevertheweather, @artsyunderstudy & @emeryhall

Eighteen months after leaving his former band—the globally famous ICARUS—Niall Connelly returns to music, with a new sound and new music partner. His best friend and ICARUS guitarist, Baz Pitch, immediately supports him. His shiny new bandmate, Simon Snow, is an unknown and mesmerizing talent. His fans are obsessed. And his ex, Dev Pitch, the frontman and lead vocalist of ICARUS, has a million unanswered questions ... and he's also still stupidly, entirely, helplessly in love.

Happy Pride! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

The whole gang made it out to pride this year and what better way to celebrate queer joy than with a proposal? Baz planned the entire thing, including the amazing speech he promptly forgot in the thrill of the moment. That's okay. Simon said yes before Baz could even get any words out anyway.

(Close-ups of details below the cut because I am SO proud of everything I made!)

Yes, Simon's overalls have functional buckles and a functional front pocket on the bib. Baz sports real pockets, as well as a magnet in his hand that allows him to hold the tiny ring box with the gold band. (It has a magnet at the base!)

I painstakingly hand-sewed every sequin on Shep's jacket, Niamh's got a functional sports bra under her tee and a functional rainbow belt, and I commissioned Agatha's top since mini-crochet is one of the few skills I have not picked up yet.

Happy Pride, y'all! May it be filled with friends, found family, and love.

2026 - 2025 - 2024 - 2023

in spite of it all, happy 2026 pride.

you can download current and past hi-res versions of these over at my ko-fi (ok to print for personal use): https://ko-fi.com/mxmorgan/shop/freedownloads

you can also snag shirts here which go to various orgs: https://mxmorgan.threadless.com/collections/pride

these get reposted a whole lot from here to reddit to twitter to tiktok and on and on, and i don't personally care whether or not i'm credited. i made these for everyone to use, enjoy, and find meaning in them. i appreciate folks who do credit me, but if able, please at least link to the threadless shop in the previous post - folks can get an official shirt where 90% of earnings go to trans led orgs focused on mental health (which is an important matter in general, but very personal to me) and not from a scam bot site selling AI-churned maga garbage where you probably won't get one anyway. i also suggest downloading the files from my ko-fi - they are free/PWYW and you can use them to make your own shirt, patch, embroidery project, whatever. tips are always nice, cuz i do like a pizza now and then, but never required for download.

final thought - breaking the pride tradition and more than likely won't make a new piece. the top one from TDOV is all i'm making this year. i have my focus on other projects currently and i don't want to force a poster design. these came from a specific head space and my current head space is Very Tired lmao so i wanna work on other things. 👍

WIP Wednesday

Hello friends! You might have noticed I finally crawled out of my cave and posted a chapter and then promptly warned everyone not to read it. If you braved it anyway, bless. I am extending my arms stretch-armstrong style to wrap you up in a much needed hug. Luckily you won't have to wait too long for a conclusion, I AM posting the next chapter on Sunday. And it DOES offer ... something. Based on beta feedback, I think it's a good something.

Here's the least spoilery thing I could grab from said next chapter. (Which is a reasonable 5k btw and NOT another 13k behemoth. I swear none of the remaining chapters will be that long. Absolutely ridiculous.) (In my defense the 13k beast was originally two chapters that shacked up and made a giant angst baby.)

It’s warmer here than the rest of the labyrinth, but he shudders violently as the air touches his bare skin. He pushes forward, stepping through patches of dirt and grass to reach it. [Redacted.] What he’s spent years searching for. Years that have done nothing to prepare him. Nothing to shield the remains of his heart.  Everything hurts: his injured palm and temples throb, his empty stomach turns, and his magick screams inside him like a caged animal. It thunders through him, threatening to climb up his throat like bile, to burn through his belly like acid. When he glances at his feet, he finds the surrounding grass has already begun to curl and crumble. All the green withers.

Tags and hellos beneath the cut!

feels like a real step back that with all the sexual freedom available to us we moved to Hookup Culture instead of Having Sex With Friends Culture

WIP Wednesday: Novel Edition

Summer vacation starts for me in like 10 days. In an effort to hold myself accountable for making the most of the next three months AND to will this novel into existence, I am going to start putting my process out into the world. Is it terrifying? Yes. Will it be worth it? I sure hope so.

For today's WIP update: The Tunes

I always write to music. Although I rarely share them publicly, I have a playlist for every fic I've ever written. Mostly, they are just vibes. Occasionally, I curate one that goes beat-by-beat where the lyrics actually capture whatever is meant to happen in those scenes.

For my novel, I'd been amassing songs for both my OCs for a while because it seemed a good pastime while I couldn't find any words. Then, a few weeks ago, I decided to nail down the playlist for my primary narrator: Xavier "Xavi" Bonilla. I am so glad that I did. As I picked songs and tried to create flow between them, something finally clicked and Xavi poured out onto the page. Like his playlist, Xavi is a boy with big feelings---his joy is infectious and his pain is palpable. I've loved writing him so far, and when I feel a bit braver, I'll share some with you.

In the meantime, I gift you his playlist. (Thank you to my lovely forever beta @thewholelemon for creating it in a shareable form!)

I want you to imagine Xavi blasting these songs in his car, dancing in his seat because he simply cannot contain himself.

Until next time, ¡a bailar!

I am tagging a few people I know have expressed interest in my original writing. If you'd rather not be, no hurt feelings and I can take you off the list. If this comes across your dash and you'd like to be added to the tag list, let me know and I am happy to send updates---however (ir)regular they may be.

i love it when im rereading a story and i find these little breadcrumbs of foreshadowing the author left. everytime im like "ohoho!!!! i wouldve gotten that before if i had the big picture!!! and now i do!!! delightful!!!" and idk i just love being able to read the same story twice but have two different experiences. i like when a story has so many layers that it can keep you entertained for a long time as you unravel all its secret nooks and crannies. thats a good story.
