The Gift of the Dreen

Has reached thirty chapters! 30. Count ‘em.

Or just read them, I guess? We’ve certainly hit a milestone here. I think. I’m well over 100k now. It’s certainly a Story, but I’m not sure I know how to describe it in full.

Title: Warning Prompt: lover100 Table B, #088 Fandom: Insektors Pairing: Acylius/Aelia Rating: T Word Count: 5,117 Summary: Aelia’s mother finally returns to Flower City after seven years of absence. She’s not happy to learn that her daughter is dating a Yuk. Warnings: Fantastic racism, OC POV, unhealthy coping mechanisms (Nereida has Issues). Notes: Post-canon work; contains spoilers for everything. This fic introduces Nereida, my OC for Aelia’s mother, and some backstory to explain why she isn’t present during the series. While I haven’t sketched out her design yet, she’s based on a luna moth (though with a sea green colouring rather than the lime green typical of the species). Her nicknames for Fulgor and Aelia come from the translation of their names--fulgor is Latin for lightning, brightness, or flash; while Aelia’s name may derive from the Greek aella, meaning storm or whirlwind. (Nereida’s own name is taken from the Greek nereid, or sea nymph.)

Title: Sympathy Prompt: lover100 Table B, #075 Fandom: Insektors Pairing: Acylius/Aelia Rating: G Word Count: 3,735 Summary: The Great Pyro has a talk with his daughter about her changing world view. Notes: Immediately post-The Eskape, follows Lugubrious. I swear that I will move away from this episode at some point. It’s just a really important one for Aelia’s development.

Title: First Meeting Prompt: lover100 Table B, #006 Fandom: Insektors Pairing: Acylius/Aelia Rating: G Word Count: 10,277 Summary: When Acylius first tells Aelia that he's a Yuk, she doesn't believe him. Then she gets angry. And then she starts to notice what doesn't fit... Notes: A minor AU of The Eskape. Some of the imagery that Aelia uses was inspired by Ilan Stavans’ translation of Pablo Neruda’s ‘Ode to the Rose’. (A thousand thanks to @sixtyfourk​ and @wandererriha​ for putting up with my whining about this piece.)

find the word game

tagged by @wayrad :DDDD

in which i attempt to locate words assigned by the person tagging me in any of my wips

my words are: more, lord, hair, play.

more - from my current wip, an as-of-yet-nameless fic i have been lovingly referring to as ‘the weepy top bucky fic’

Gale hums, shifting his hips into it. “More,” he says, hands falling to John’s waist and pulling lightly at his hips. When John hesitates, he pulls a little harder, “C’mon, you’re not gonna hurt me. I can take it.”

John blinks. “Yes, Major,” he says obediently, shivery with nerves and with renewed arousal.

lord - this is from a wip i’ve had kicking around for months titled ‘drunk girl in a bar bathroom gale’ which i forgot about until like. yesterday. and hopefully will be the next thing i work on!

“C’mon, Buck. Gimme a real toast. Y’don’t even need to drink it all, just a sip, huh? ‘S not gonna hurt ya.”

John had given his best innocent look, puppy-dog eyes and everything. He had entirely innocent intentions! He hadn’t wanted to get Gale drunk or see him embarrass himself or lord it over him later that he’d taken the drink. He’d just wanted to share something with his best friend on his birthday. At the time it had seemed vitally important, more than any of Gale’s protests.

hair - also from crying bucky fic 👍

“Can’t even fuck my,” and he stalls out for a second, skipping awkwardly over what to call Gale, because nothing seems to fit right, “without weeping like a baby, Jesus, what’s wrong with me?”

“Well you were doing pretty damn good until you got all in your head about it,” Gale says softly, brushing a lock of hair from John’s forehead.

play - this isn’t from a real wip it’s a snippet i wrote and never found a good place for… also im cheating a little on this one because i couldn’t find the actual word… but it’s the closest i could find lmao

They end up awkwardly spread over the bed further from the window. John’s long limbs are splayed out over the rumpled sheets, while Gale perches half-curled over him with one leg hanging off the mattress. John’s cock is still softening in his hand as he works his way up his stomach and chest, pressing open-mouthed kisses to the sweat-salty skin. He’s careful, almost reverent with his touch. Penitential.

not sure who to tag since i feel like i’ve seen a bunch of my moots do this already and idk who has/hasn’t lol but if anyone wants to do it again w a new set of words i will assign: bite, wind, major, real
