I don't think artistic echoes are a bad habit or bad writing. That's a motif in your work, or a theme. That's part of your voice. It's cool!

I’m not sure it’s a motif, so much as a quirk. The repetitions are almost never related, and sometimes they happen in different fandoms altogether. I just sometimes do things in twos for some reason.

Thank you to those of you who had kind words (or fuzzy cat pictures) for me. I really needed that tonight. I’m not really over what happened, but I’m not feeling physically ill over it anymore either. 

Seriously, I appreciate it. I’m actually tearing up right now because it makes me unbelievably happy that I know such nice people on tumblr.

What does your character do first thing in the morning?

Oh shoot, I don’t remember when I posted the prompt for this. I’m so sorry, tumblr didn’t tell me I had an ask! I’ll go ahead and answer for all three of the main characters of Dark Hearts Rising.

Derius: Derius gets up the moment he wakes. He takes time to put up his hair, as putting it in the various traditional royal styles usually takes time, and he refuses to allow his servants to help with anything that would involve them having to touch his wings or hair. He puts on clothes that he picked out the night before and then goes to meet (read: wake up) his brother for breakfast before going to his lessons.

Rei: Rei remains in bed until Derius wakes him, even if he is well aware that he’s running late. He throws on his clothes and goes to eat breakfast with Derius before going to his Royal Guardian training. He is often sent back to his room to tidy up by their father if he’s caught looking this way.

Zana: Zana wakes early so that he has time to groom his wings each day. He keeps a dream journal, which he write in if he recalls any dreams of interest. He also bathes in the morning, before caring for his wings. He tends to eat a light lunch before either going to his apprentice work with the Angelic Triumvirate or returning to his room or the nearby library to read.

You might like a webc9mic called Sk8n Deep. The current storyline has a character who suddenly gained wings and is...

I'm looking it up right now! Looks interesting.

Despite having all the standard Titan follower upgrades, this character manages to look unique and yes, SEXY.

You say that like cybernetic upgrades aren't sexy already.

:( that is really rough. It has happened to lots of people I know.

Yeah, unfortunately society has really screwed up the way we care about each other's health. :\

Wow, that is messed up, I’m sorry you have to deal with that

Thanks, I appreciate it.  I'm pretty used to dealing with her unique brand of crazy. It's really frustrating, but luckily I've always had a pretty solid relationship with my body image. So she's not going to win me over, just piss me off. But I know not everyone is as lucky as I am in that respect.

Wtffff mom

Haha, yeah, that basically sums up me and my mother's entire relationship! :P wild and crazy times.

Can you do the noir vignette thing for people with very little on their tumblr? I really like this idea, but I don't post or reblog much of anything. She/her pronouns

(Original post: http://www.johnskylar.com/post/82996706080/masochistic-writer-does-tumblr-ask-event. Tag for all posts: #noirproject. lalitrus, a common source of the notes I see on my feed, is being too humble about her blog—it’s got a lot of personality.  You should follow it if you like the vignette!)

When I need a safehouse, though, I can’t just make myself disappear.

I’m no Houdini.

Instead, I gotta run, and hard.  I have a go bag, with everything a good private dick needs to get to ground.

But I need ground to get to, and I need a place that people wouldn’t think to come looking for me.

That’s why I have a gal up in the foothills.  Name’s Lal.

She runs a goat farm.  Her cheese is unparalleled.  Not that I know much about cheese.  I don’t really know from goats, either.

But I know women, and Lal is the kind I can trust.

You know what the overlap is between people who want to kill me, and people who’d look for me on a goat farm?

…

Yeah, exactly.
