Gang I'm debating combining this blog with Parabalis's sequel (IT'S NAMED HARVORSHIRE!! legit can't remember if I've mentioned the sequel before) or making a completely separate one. I think I'm gonna just. combine the two because the Parabalis gang is also featured in Harvorshire. I will add the OCs in both a separate blog, as well as adding them to the main intro post.
Get ready to meet such creative and amazing and intricate people, such as jealous ex with no regard for human life, psychopathic bastard shapeshifter, Jekyll and Hyde if they were a television, Will Wood if he was a therapist, Monster addict 2.0 (this time in prostitute form), and D!! no this was not a typo that's her name. the letter D
People die in horrific ways! Shit gets set on fire! Orgon's alcoholic tendencies fuck shit up! Clay gets worse! The concept of anomalies is greatly expanded on! Television fucks literally everything up! Also Christmas! No guns this time around, fortunately.
I've been thinking about this sequel more than actual Parabalis, honestly :3 Mostly because I need to develop a linear plot for it. And literally everything goes down. I wouldn't exactly call Parabalis a nothingburger in terms of Shit Going Down, but most of it is at the end, whereas in Harvorshire there's much more Shit to Go Down throughout.
I also think Harvorshire is gonna be a lot longer than Parabalis, due to the amount of content it will include.
In any case I shall get to work combining the two soon :3
2026 is going to be the year of Parabalis. You have to hear me out on this.
Take a little history of yours truly first.
In 2021, I gained many friends but did not write very much - I started a crackfic series and got three-fifths of the way through before slowing down. In 2023, I went through a few hyperfixations but did not write anything substantial enough to become a book/fanfiction or series. In 2025, I wrote 22k-ish words of Parabalis and several half-baked oneshots for my Danganronpa hyperfixation.
Now.
In 2020, I wrote and completed my first full-length fanfiction. In 2022 I gained the biggest hyperfixation of my life and wrote an ungodly amount for it. In 2024 I wrote a 100k words three-part fanfiction and started two others.
EVEN NUMBERED YEARS ARE MY MOST PRODUCTIVE YEARS. THIS IS UNDENIABLE GIVEN THE PROOF I JUST STATED ABOVE.
My goal for myself is to publish Parabalis before I graduate college. In 2026, I will be finishing my junior year and becoming a senior, so I have no choice but to lock in. This is going to be the year of Parabalis — IT’S LITERALLY EXACTLY 20 YEARS AFTER THE YEAR THE STORY TAKES PLACE.
Okay so last night I rewrote my infodump on the plot and I changed several details that were in my original plot dump so I’m gonna rewrite the plot dump that’s on here so it fits with the updated plot.
On a side tangent, I WROTE OVER 2,000 WORDS IN AN HOUR LAST NIGHT. They were solely for the infodump BUT STILL!!!! I’ve cleared up so many plot holes and added so many more details I’m so proud of what I did last night
Hiii!!! I'm the mod of @the-demonic-people and I just want to say that your blog is so cool! I just wanna know, what's the plot of the blog and the story? I haven't properly checked the entire thing yet. Anyways, hope u have a nice day ^^
THANK YOU SO MUCH OH MY GOODNESS
I should probably write down the plot, all I’ve done was give cryptic hints at it because I’m stuck in the purgatory of wanting to infodump everything but not wanting to spoil anything.
TWs: Implied forced relationship, manipulation, death (lots of it), cults and religious imagery, mentions of parental and domestic abuse, phobias, mental and physical disorders
So buckle up, ladies, gentlemen, neithers, boths, and in-betweens, for I present:
The Plot (TM)
It’s Patchy Skelter’s 18th birthday!!! This is wonderful and amazing cuz she has an incredibly dangerous disorder that makes her unable to feel pain. She wasn’t supposed to live this long, but she did!! Yippee for her!!
Clay is her bestiewestie. They get bullied by Poly, who is a dick. However, it’s not about that right now. Patchy has a birthday. Their life is wonderful. They go to a cool little venue in a restaurant/bar and play music with their band. Patchy is there. All is well in the world.
Patchy’s two father figures are there too — Orgon and Cal. They used to be gay. But they currently are gay?? Wowzers they’re working things out probably!! Patchy ships them because we love old man yaoi (is it still considered old man yaoi if they’re in their 40s). People also ship Patchy and Pith, the singer in Clay’s band, because we also love lesbians here.
Clay third wheels both Orgon and Cal as well as Patchy and Pith. They are sad about this.
Woah why is Orgon looking at Clay and Pith in a sussy way. It’s like he knows something strange but that couldn’t be. Eh it’s probably nothing. He hasn’t exactly been the same since a traumatizing car accident that happened two years ago on December 22, 2004.
Woah this is being described in detail!! Is it a major plot point???? (yes)
The next day, Clay sees Poly beat up. Insert concern because Poly’s mum is a notorious douchebag. Poly beats Clay up for caring about him, as one does.
Clay, still worried about Poly because they’re a good person, follows him home. Poly does a bit of a shouty shouty and it’s somewhat angsty. Suddenly Clay gets stabbed. By a needle. With a sedative. Held by Orgon.
Poly, appropriately, is like ‘what in the fuck I hated them but I didn’t want this to happen???’ So they try to call Pith (who they formerly had a shitty relationship with). She doesn’t answer. They go to Patchy who accuses them of attacking Clay and Pith. For once Poly had done nothing, and he leaves sadly.
Meanwhile Clay wakes up in a basement. So does Pith!!!! This is frightening. Pith undergoes panic attack so Clay tries to comfort her. Wait why the fuck is their hand glowing. Could this be MAGIC???? It’s like they’re SIPHONING IT FROM PITH??? WHAT???? Orgon looks pleased with himself. What is he plotting oh my stars.
Meanwhile, Patchy’s stressed over this. She calls up her father figures because Pith’s not answering and she’s really worried. Cal acts relatively normal. Orgon does not. Patchy begins to suspect something but it couldn’t be!! It’s not like her father figures were bad, right????
SUDDENLY PITH PICKS UP. Thank god. She sounds really traumatized so Patchy invites her over. They bond over Patchy’s love of crafts and talk about Poly. It’s revealed that Poly has NPD and has severe issues which is why he acts the way he does. He also worsened Pith’s schizophrenia during their relationship and ended up making her not take her medication anymore.
Pith wants to stay over but hOLY SHIT THERE’S ONLY ONE BED. The two sleep in it. It’s wholesome as fuck. Until Pith gets a nightmare. During the comfort, she opens up to Patchy about the main route of her problems — The Event (TM).
The Event (TM) reveals that Pith used to be a ghost hunter who was fascinated by the paranormal. She was walking through the woods when she heard a strange crash. Then she continued forward and stumbled upon a CULT??? In the sleepy town of Parabalis???? More likely than you think :D
Guess when this Event (TM) took place!!! (Hint: it’s December 22, 2004, aka the same date Orgon had his car accident.) Patchy freaks out at the same-date thing. Shit’s going down.
Clay’s still trapped in Orgon’s basement, not doing so good. They’re contemplating the existence of magic and wonder what the fuck they have. And Pith has had to deal with it this whole time??? No wonder she’s traumatized
Suddenly they hear a conversation from upstairs!! Wait Orgon’s actually SPEAKING??? He sounds like he’s being forced to. Weird. Wait, is that other voice Cal, Patchy’s other father figure :0 They sound gay but not in a good way. A suspicious meeting that Orgon has to go to is mentioned and cults are also mentioned and Clay’s like WTF. This is news to them. Holy shit this is a lot to take in.
More not-so-good-or-consensual gayness happens and then Orgon returns and is visibly Not Well. Clay tries to talk to him about Cal and then Orgon threatens him and now Clay’s frightened!!! But so is Orgon. Huh.
Orgon leaves the weapon he threatened Clay with in a place where they can somehow get it because he’s traumatized and can’t think straight. Clay escapes and when Orgon returns they beat the ever loving shit out of Orgon cuz Orgon’s lowkey a weakling. They pin him down and suddenly there’s a light in his cold dead eyes. Wait that’s snow. What the fUCK-
So it’s revealed that the magic Clay took from Pith was the ability to see into others’ memories. Time to reveal Orgon’s trauma now with this ability!!!!
Clay sees Orgon’s terrible car wreck and watches him straight-up die in a horrific way. Trauma!! Suddenly, Orgon is no longer dead!!! He wakes up incredibly frightened in the middle of a cult, run by Cal. :0
Apparently Cal has magic too — the ability to tamper with life and death and reverse either of those things. Therefore he straight-up believes he’s Jesus Christ. Lots of religious symbolism happens. This delusional man tells Orgon that he owes him his life now, and the life of Patchy because without Orgon, Patchy would be dead.
Clay pulls back to reality and is like ‘holy shit so you’re not bad, you just wanna protect yourself and Patchy from Cal. damn you could have TOLD ME INSTEAD OF BEING CREEPY ABOUT IT’. Orgon’s shit at telling people valuable information, but now we know that Clay has the ability to yoink the powers of Cal to end his reign of terror once and for all.
Anyways Clay, Patchy, and Pith all reunite and talk about what happened. Patchy is skeptical about the existence of magic so Clay uses his spooky memory powers. She sees a really wholesome memory of herself and Orgon being daughter and father and she cries. Then they team up to save Orgon with the Power of Friendship!!!
They go to where the cult is. Cal arrives late and starts talking about ‘a Judas among us’ or something. Hehe among us. Anyways he reveals how he knows about Orgon’s little experiments with the magical children. This betrayal will lead to DEATH!!! Orgon, who had been forced to go, finally expresses fear for once. Ugh I love my sopping wet cat of a man so much SORRY ANYWAYS
The gang burst in like ‘NOOOOOO’. The other cult members flee and it’s symbolic cuz everyone abandoned Jesus too. Lots of religious imagery when Cal’s around. Anyways Cal whips out a fucking gun and threatens the gang. There’s a large kerfuffle but Cal gets the upper hand and is about to kill people when suddenly he’s like ‘wait where tf are my killing powers’. Clay has them!!! They kill Cal. Everything’s good.
WAIT NO IT’S NOT PATCHY GOT SHOT LMAO. Orgon displays even MORE emotion cuz she’s the only thing he’s living for. Patchy ends up fucking dying but now Clay has the powers of Cal, so they can bring her back. Everyone has trauma now. But they’re all alive so it’s not that bad.
Then the plot dissolves into details that make it possible for me to make several sequels. Those I don’t wanna reveal for 1. spoilers and 2. I don’t have sequel details laid out. But yeah everyone gets a happy ending!!!
