about me

hello! I'm ivory, any pronouns, minor! I'm (mainly) a fantasy writer, but sometimes try my hand at contemporary! I also do photography when the fancy strikes me!

I'm still somewhat new to tumblr but very new to writerblr, and honestly I'm just looking for some friends :] I really like having people to talk to writing about, so!! Im a bit shy about talking to people anywhere, and unfortunately that's carried over to online, but if you reach out I'll absolutely reach back!! come talk to me Im like a little bug I'm more afraid of you

if I remember most of my yapping will be fittingly tagged #yapping yapping weee (don't trust I'll remember)

writing

My current main wip is in its first draft phase with the working title Runes of Hyacinth! (#wip: roh) it's a fantasy quest for an item of myths, featuring fake dating and some other silly little things :> You can read the synopsis below if you'd like! otherwise I have a bunch of other minor novella wips that I may post snippets of but haven't officially introduced yet

most of my world building, including lore, magic system(s), and oc information will be under the tag #the skies archives, if you're at all interested in it! I will also eventually just link it here!!

and anything that is unrelated to a full wip and is a poem or other work will be under #ivory originals!!

anyways! Thank you so much for reading or just stopping by! I'd love it if you came with me on my writing journey

Runes of Hyacinth

Alchemy is a careful, capable art, yet even it has its limits. El learns that the hard way. Desperate to save her younger sister from a terminal illness, she employs help from alchemy's companion, magic. This comes in the form of the infinitely curious Mage Zircon, student to the royal family's advisor. Joining her on a trek across the continent in search of the Runes of Hyacinth, a mystical book supposedly holding the cures they're looking for, El and Zircon face the consequences of seeking out the taboo. Mortals and gods alike fear what the Runes may hold, and the two must weather what those fears wrought, fighting to face the enemies they've made in themselves. All the while, the clock ticks for those they want to save.

missing The Character is a strange thing because yea there's always the option to go back to their source material or looking at art or reading fics but it's also like i can't just call them up like i would a friend to see how they're doing and that's the frustrating part of it

Reading the WHA manga is a fun experience because when you get into it a bit, you turn your head and there's Chekhov hanging a gun on the wall. And that's fine - expected, even. You have to let Chekhov hang a gun on the wall every now and then so he can take them down and shoot them later. For enrichment. But then you get a few more chapters in, and there's Chekhov again with another gun, and then another one a few chapters after that. And eventually, the number of guns on the wall has really started to get concerning, and you start to wonder what great firing squad will be required to handle all of them, or if Chekhov intends on setting them all off one by one by himself. And the few guns that have been set off were all so sudden and painful that you're really starting to worry about where all of this is going. And then you run out of chapters to read.

realizing a headcanon of yours happens to make an element of canon even more heartbreaking when you hadn't even considered it from that angle previously

Guys what if there was a character

[sycamorality]

one of my favorite things to do as someone's friend is when they're mentioning something they like. i love going "i'd love to know the lore". and then see them go "OKAY SO LIKE" and then they keep going for the next 2 hours and i get to read about their interests. like yesssss tell me everything about what you love!!!!!

The reason Qifrey is so awesome and relatable is because he wants to live. Man in his twenties being ominous as hell and breaking laws left and right and messing with forces beyond comprehension and lying to the cops and doing horrible things to the people who love him most and constantly destroying his own mental health and you peel back the layers and the motivation is "God I want to grow old someday."

its good to acknoweldge the hollowness of revenge but sometimes you really do just need a story about someone who gets hurt and then kills and kills and kills and kills their enemies. its cathartic, babey.

[awesome-chameleon]

"there's nothing that can bring my loved one back, so there's no point in killing you" and "there's nothing that can bring my loved one back, so there's nothing that can save you" are two themes that can and should co-exist
