Important fh future related question: is it possible for someone to use the detect thoughts spell and the message cantrip at the same time on the same person
I did go home and fall asleep basiclly imedietly afterwards like untill 6 the next day, and i do feel like it was a riz gukgak moment, well he wouldnt do that cause he would push himself until further exhaustion, but it felt like it.
Okay idk just wanted to say thqt, reminded me of your fic, which is awesome and very cool and i really like it. I miss that goblin, i really do 😔. Okay bye!
Thank you for sharing you're so true certified Riz gukgak moment, hehe! Here's some of the guy I drew on sticky notes at work the other day!
And a meme that reminds me of him. Everything does....
Oh boy so it all started one night like last year when Emily afford came to me in a dream and told me about a game the intrepid heroes played of the bad kids set like around 10 years from fhjy. Gorgug is a teacher at Augefort, Fabian an occasional pirate, Adaine a professor, Fig and Ayda have a kid, Kristen has to deal with the memory wiped tabaxi kitten Kalina, and Riz is tangled up in a mystery following Sklonda's death and a halfling child named Biff that won't leave him alone.
I then expanded it all, like Adaine is a professor working with college students with high divinatory potential, Gorgug's still in Elmville at Augefort being a barbarian teacher, Fabian travels between Solace and Leviathan by ship a lot, Fig and Ayda's kid is named Pyre Faeth-Augefort and the three of them don't settle down anywheres for a while, Kristen is still trying at gaining and keeping followers for Cassandra all around Spyre and figuring out the complications of Kalina existence now, and Riz is working on his various college degrees in Bastion city and still doing regular detective PI stuff. And they're not really a proper adventuring party anymore, obviously still friends and still occasionally go on adventures, but they all have their own jobs and lives in different parts of the world. They try to meet up when they can and call all the time.
Then I figured out how they all came to those places, worked backwards from there to the now. And the thing I felt I couldn't skip over was what happened to Sklonda.
And the mystery with Riz and Biff I've expanded so much, and I'm about 10k into it and I've exclusively only gotten through Riz and Sklonda stuff and that's it. At this moment everything is just them, I kinda sorta have plans for everyone to appear later. But at the moment it's Riz going through it without telling anyone what's going on. Lol.
Have a nonspoiler snippet!
.
It's an hour or so later when Riz makes it back to the hospital. He would have been there sooner, but on his walk he stopped to gawk at all the new things in town he hadn't seen in so many years. There was a supermarket now, Super-shop-spell-savers-mart. A real mouthful.
He'd missed so much.
The Elm Valley mall was gone, torn down and made room for more parking for the Supermarket. Half the places were closed down and abandoned, or torn down, or renovated and unrecognizable now. Houses and streets that used to be there were gone and turned into something else, and new ones took their places. New people, new things, new places. It was different. Almost unrecognizable. The playgrounds he grew up in were gone, the corner stores torn down, the buildings abandoned. The place he lived in for most of his life was not the same as it was in his childhood. The town, it had always seemed like it was locked in a time of its own, was changing. Without him. It had already changed, and he hadn't been there to see it. He missed it.
Everything had changed and moved on without him there to see it. The unfamiliarity of it all gnaws at his gut. He doesn't know where home is anymore.
🤡 what's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that makes you laugh?
I was laughing so hard I was almost crying writing the "sharp hamburger" joke, it's a joker joke, wanna know how I got these scars, and one of my favorite memes, sharp hamburger. Looking back it's kinda a bummer joke but I still think it's funny.
🧐 do you spend much time researching your stories?
Not really tbh, I'll have to start if I write starsky and hutch tho, I wouldn't want to be too inaccurate to it. For most things I just go off of what I already know of, looking stuff up as is relevant, I think.
🧠 pick a character and I'll tell you my favorite headcanon for them
Fig: before her horns came in, we know she was a peppy cheerleader, I like to think she hung out with a group of mean girls, and went along with their bullying or else she would be a target herself and she regrets not standing up for others and herself back then, which is why she does so much now or at least tries to
Riz: partly my own bias, but he loves any sort of detective things, Nancy drew, hardy boys, and sort of mystery thing. Him and Penny used to watch and play detective games when she'd babysit him and they played at having their own detective agency
What's the part you are most excited to get to in this story, if you can share?
Anyways yayyyy
Biff!!!! I love my daughter dream Emily axford made up. She just means so much to me. Riz's unintentionally adopted daughter that reminds him so much of himself! And how Biff and him reminds him of him and his mom! I ♥️ U mirror motifs and stuff. I want to introduce her so bad but I been struggling with how and when she exactly fits into all this. I'll get to it eventually. AGH
Also all the fun plot things and the ending I have planned, obvi can't share too much but AHHG it's one of the things that once I figured out how it's gotta end I just gotta get there, and wow I'm so excited Abt this journey. Once I get there of course.
Unfortunately I've been way too into starsky and hutch lately to even think Abt fh future I still will get back to it but I'm on a detour ATM, I will never give up on fh future bcuz it's the kind of thing I have to finish (for dream Emily axford) and it's just so much to me I gotta.
