hi again <3

I'm Mal, 31, but have technically had this blog since I was 15, under like a thousand different urls over the years. I have been lured back here after being on a billion different social platforms and need a place to just be a little weirdo in peace.

I'm a video game writer and traditionally published romance author by day, and multifandom chaos and absurdity the rest of the time. I used to write a lot for the Mass Effect fandom (fshenko specifically), but currently only have time for my original stuff on contract.

Big fan of:

Video Games in general, but specifically

Mass Effect

Dragon Age

Uncharted

Baldur's Gate 3

Animal Crossing

Assassin's Creed

Dispatch

Taylor Swift

Romance Books (I write them, I read them, talk to me about books)

Cryptids, spooky shit, and horror content

Memes

let's be friends?

when you see your little kitty walking toward you at a leisurely pace and say "hi baby!" bc you're excited to see her and she starts trotting a little bit faster 'cause she's excited to see you too. that's what life is all about i think

honestly thinking a lot about my old fics and how I thought they were so spicy back then, and then looking at the things I publish now and like show my face as having written, and I'm like... damn I could really be rocking it in the fic world again if I had the time

he's beautiful i literally need to put him under extreme psychological stress. i need to put him in extreme physical pain. i need him curling up in someone's arms for the feelings of safety and comfort he hasn't received in ages

We’ve been friends a long time, Shepard. Ever known me to be with anyone? Guess I’m choosy or patient or… I don’t know. […] what I want is something deeper with someone I already… care about.

I made this fanart for the 10th anniversary of Uncharted 4, one of my favourite video games🎮🥳
