Enjoy!

Hey Salties! Doing something a bit different and new today. I made a Cinderella Boy key OC!

Everyone meet Emerson the Tertiary Key!

Some more information below for him:

• Trans key (He/him)

• Colors: hunter green/emerald

• Eyes: Diamond/silver

• Original name: Emerald/Emi

• Changed to: Emerson

• His roles are background/minor characters

• He already has short hair but his chest is not bound in his keyple form, so he feels constant dysphoria over it

• Was also turned into a key like Nox, used to be human.

Plus more lore to drop once I decide to develop him more lol. I’ll probably draw him digitally soon as well! So look forward to that.

Stay Salty!

Forgot I could promote things on here lol! My friend on discord, ColaGrey on AO3, made a freaking PODFIC of my fic “Not My Name.”!!! And I am SOOO so excited to share it with y’all. It’s the best thing I’ve ever heard, like trust they could actually do audiobooks professionally if they really wanted to! They have the best voice, PLEASE go check it out guys!

Umm… so guess who made a new fic? Again? I already wrote one yesterday? WHERE IS THIS MOTIVATION COMING FROM??

That’s two one-shots in two days! Probably over the span of 24 hours tho! What!

Okay, so it’s not out yet. It’s currently in the drafts and being beta read! So, In the next few hours it will be posted.

For now, I’ll just name drop it: “Unadulterated Loving” (can we guess what it’s about?)

Other than that, stay tuned! I stayed up until three in the morning to write it! And then some more the next day! No i didn’t sleep at all!

I’m tired but pretty proud of my new creation. Anyway, enough yapping for me. Stay tuned guys, I’ll post again when it’s posted on AO3.

Stay salty!!

There are two very specific canon facts about Buddy that I will never, and I mean NEVER, get over.

1. He has a SNORTING LAUGHTER. This may or may not be a reoccurring thing in my fics 💔💔 Let my boy laugh as much as he’d like.

2. He likes his hair being played with AND he likes playing with Chase’s hair? On god this is the cutest thing EVER. Yes it’s in my most recent fic. Yes it will be written again. (Idk when it was mentioned in canon but I think it was the Punko Reacts videos frfr)

[oversaltedgravy]

Whaaaat the heck guys. I posted this like— only a few hours ago?? 39 kudos, 118 hits, 3 bookmarks, and 8 comments threads?? Okay. Not freaking out or anything. You guys REALLY like the making-out tag, huh? Also thank you to all the people that hyped me up on the Patreon discord!! Y’all the best 🫶🫶

[oversaltedgravy]

Oops! My fingers slipped 😟😟 anyway enjoy this one-shot!

Hey guys! It’s been a while. I don’t really have a good excuse as to why I haven’t posted MBBK in a while, and I’m not going to pretend I have one.

But don’t fear! I will pick the story back up eventually, but for now, my Cinderella Boy fanfic, “Mystery of the Book-Bound Key,” will be on hiatus indefinitely. Thank you guys for understanding and reading!

What will I do in the meantime? I will most likely be finishing the entire fanfic before I start posting again. It’ll be much easier this way, and that way I can actually stick to my word and post on a good schedule.

I’m not gonna lie, posting as you write is DAUNTING. Watching and waiting for people to comment, to leave kudos and hits, was exhausting. In all honesty, it discouraged me a lot to see so little interaction, even though I should expect that from a small fandom lol. So that’s why I think it’s best we part ways… for now.

To anyone who genuinely enjoyed, thank you sooooo much! To those who left kudos and comments, you guys encouraged me to keep going! To anyone who HASN’T read it yet and is curious, please see the link in my pinned post! To those who are still here and will be until the end of this fic, look forward to an update here when I finish the fic in its entirety and post it (probably biweekly)!

Thanks for reading this! Stay salty!

New MBBK (my CB fan fic) chapter coming out hopefully tomorrow or the day after! So sorry for the delay, I’ve been absolutely swamped with schoolwork and tests for the past week or so. I’ll try to get out more consistent chapters once I figure out my school/work schedule.

[oversaltedgravy]

New chapter of MBBK is finished! Just need to get it beta read 🫡🫡 It should be up within the hour, I’ll edit this post when it’s up.

Edit: posted!

OKAY. SO. i was re-reading cinderella boy (its an unhealthy obsession, i re-read it every week at this point,) and i noticed something that i didn't really pay attention to before. (THIS IS WHY WE RE-READ!!!) basically, i have read many theories about how buddy may be taking naratonin from chase, and I've always thought that the people that wrote these theories had a good point. so here's my contribution to that theory: when i was re-reading, i saw something strange (?) in episode 23, at the end of the episode buddy says "maybe this one will be useful after all." when referring to chase. he said this after realizing that chase wasn't really giving up.

mega suspicious of buddy, because WDYM?!?!? we know that at first, all that buddy was trying to do is take silver from chase, but that's really all, until they became friends. (and more than friends.) in episode 39, in buddy's dream, when he is trying to escape wherever he's at, (i'm guessing its the ex libris library,) he has to throw a clock into a mirror so he can escape, except he sees chase's reflection in it. (mb for stating the obvious, gotta give context 😔) before he throws the clock at chase, he says this:

i think that this whole scene symbolizes him having to hurt chase. not literally, (no beating up chase this time!) but more as where he is doing something that harms chase so he can be able to turn into a human again. i think that what he is doing is taking chase's naratonin, because in episode 45, we see silver and bronze right after chase and deacon finish a story, except deacon got like 3x the amount of naratonin that chase did.

and personality-wise, this doesn't make much sense since chase is the fun one that goes with the flow, so he would probably enjoy the book more. HMM. i don't think i actually pointed out anything new, this is more just a theory post for me to really think about what i read for the past 47 re-reads 😖

[oversaltedgravy]

Dude i love this theory more and more every day I hear about it omg
