The painting showed the Emperor, ascendant above all, catching the spinning constellations in his outstretched hand. The stars.’ Horus said. 'See, there? How he scoops them up? The zodiacs swirl into his grasp like fireflies. The stars are mankind's birthright. That's what he told me. That's one of the first things he told me when we met. I was like a child then, raised up from nothing. He set me at his side, and pointed to the heavens. Those points of light, he said, are what we have been waiting generations to master. Imagine, Horus, every one a human culture, every one a realm of beauty and magnificence, free from strife, free from war, free from bloodshed and the tyrannous oppression of alien overlords. Make no mistake, he said, and they will be ours.’ Horus slowly traced his fingers across the whorl of painted stars until his hand met the image of the Emperor's hand.

I created this post to share with you alll the great wh fanfics out there. I just wanted to give a 💖 Big Thank You💖 to the amazing authors that write fanfics, they really make my day and I think I'm not alone in that. If you have some more that you like, just write them down in the comments and I'll add them :-). And if you know some of the authors accounts, write and I shall tag.
➡️ I would recommend to read the necron novels first, because it is quite lore heavy and a lot of characters are from different books.(wouldn't be mad if BL authors take the next necron book in this direction)
➡️ This fic is literally my favourite thing in the world rn. The overall setting, the story and the vibe of this fic is so beutiful. Mortarion and Calas deserve the whole world.

➡️ This brings me to tears almost every time I read it. I recommend reading all the other works from the series because they are very good.
➡️ I can't even put to words how much I love this fanfic and the ship overall. And alsooo the short story from the series about Saul Tarvitz/Nathaniel Garro and jealous Lucius is just perfect.
➡️ This fanfic has me in a chokehold. It is soooo gooddd and this ship makes so much sense its crazy. Like when you are staring at some physics formula and it doesn't make sense? and suddenly the night before the exam you get a revelation and now it just makes perfect sense and it is the most easiest and natural thing in the world? This ship is it. Emperor if you are here on this planet, please make wh real and make these two kiss🙏🙏
➡️ I'm gonna be honest, I have never really been a fan the oc and oc relationships. I mean, why this if you have a million canon characters to write about? But this fanfic COMPLETELY changed my mind. The absolute geniality to create a completely different setting and brand new characters is mindblowing. Aaand then write a story about them? Brilliant. So now I'm consuming all the oc/ oc stuff I can find lol. And if you feel the same way as I did about that stuff, give it a chance. This masterpiece was created by @hanon-akulai , go check the stunning art and the updates on the fic.
No relationships:
Got to say that I haven't read many fanfics without relationships (we WH girlies Are Horny™ for these men afterall (: ), but I definitely recommend this one:
There's a word I wish to know,
My soft little heart,
The lamb like a cloud.
If only I heard your golden hooves in the air,
I’d be your sister, without a care.
Between thorny horns, among eagle branches
There're of scarlet red candles flashes.
If only I knew the word so right,
The name of a secret
My black lamb holds so tight.
(my free translation of this song)

Answering for my very first rogue trader Xandra
What’s an idea, dynamic, or trope in your current work that feels naughty or self-indulgent?
I'm not sure I understood this question correctly... I often gave my characters some autistic traits, not intentionaly. I love the stories about strong emotional connection in the first place - and I suppose all my pairings contain that.
Is your OC a virgin, blushing maiden, or sexual fiend? or aro/ace? or something in between?
I don't know lol. I rewrited her background few times and just gave up so let it stay a mystery even for me. I would say she is more demisexual - she desires only people she finds intriguing regardless of gender.
What’s your OC’s “I shouldn’t be turned on by this” trigger?
Whole Commorragh arc felt like “I shouldn’t be turned on by this” moment ESPECCIALY with all Marazhai's flirting... Especially with Heinrix right here so Marzi goes to the horny jail right after they're back at home
What’s your OC’s hard NO?
She is definitely not poly, third person is not allowed. And self-sacrifices (looking intensively at someone in particular).
What is the most debauched VP/Art you have ever created?
I just understood i haven't drawn or wrote anything 18+ with her… What a shame
Do you have any crazy projects for the future?
Nope, at least now. I feel like Xandra's story is completed for me, I have nothing new to say. Maybe someday I'll return to it... or not and I will play other ocs. I can't say really
(i'm not sure who's to tag cause I usually drop an image and dissapear for a week so it feels a little bit inappropriate… or not? I don't really understand tumblr society rules)

Last song: Borislav Slavov - A Single Drop of Magic
Currently Watching: friend's playthrough of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.
Current obsession: suddenly Tristian's plotline. I played kingmaker 8 (?) years ago and know his story but not long ago I decided to play it again and oh, boy... It struck me to the core
Currently reading: Tiffany Roberts's "Enthralled" - my guilty pleasure... I've started to read it as a joke but this book somehow still surprises me. Can't definitely recommend cause it's kinda... specific
Currently Working On: some small illustrations with paints. I was drawing a lot recently so not planing anything big in near future.
Currently wearing: pink summer pajamas
Last search: Lupinus polyphyllus - it's a wild flower that grows not far away from our summer house. I was wondering what it is and scaned it with a smart camera
Favorite flower: white chrysanthemums
(I wasn't active here last months so not tagging anyone specific)
