Diaval’s Mistress liked him at at her side, here on the wing - everywhere, he thought, dizzily pleased and fond, adoring - and so long as she permitted it, he would fight to be so. Maleficent flicked two fingers and Diaval cut swiftly closer; he couldn’t hover so easily or so long as she, soaring and drifting, powerful wings beating almost lazily from time to time to maintain her position, but he knew she would never let him fall, and the sweep of the currents rushing off her wings kept him buoyed. And if perhaps there was a glimmer of green-gold magic wound through the air - a sparkle recognised for Diaval was more accustomed to it, this one magic, than any other living being - it was only the promise of what Diaval already knew. He let himself drift upon it with relief, for he wouldn’t dream of peeling away from Maleficent while she yet flew, not unless she sent him away. ‟Come along, my pet.” Maleficent’s voice settled on the air as easily as another breeze. ‟Let us back to our roost, mm?”

all your wips sound interesting, but I'd love to know more about orv especially!

So!!! This was a document made back in.... oh, 2021. That was during my peak ORV production era, where I had lots and lots of ideas and put out a new random snippet every week. "orv" was one of my catch-all documents for this. So, a bunch of miscellaneous ORV snippets in here. If I've got my headings right (I made a cursory attempt at a table of contents), there are at least 18 separate aus/snippets/stories/whatever-you-want-to-call-them's in here.

There is one that I am actively working on! In the table of contents, it's called "walk into love, eyes wide open", but I think I will call it "the only way you know how to love". I posted the first part of this back in... Oct 2022, but recently, I've been making efforts to finish it up for Valentine's Day this year.

Summarizing it briefly: Kim Dokja gives a love confession to a demisexual Yoo Joonghyuk and attempts to run away from it immediately after. Yoo Joonghyuk reacts to it.

Beloved Discord friend sort of threw this idea out in the channel (in a "why doesn't anyone write this???" sort of way), and I, being possessed of vastly more writing ambition and confidence than the current moment, was like "pshawww that can't be that hard" and banged out the first 600 words in a day. It's the second half that's giving me trouble (YJH reacts), but! I am working on it!!! I will be excited to present this to friend and go "haHA you thought I forgot, didn't you?????"

ask me a question!

@phantom-z0ne for wip wednesday, august 27

If someone were to ask me if I wanted to enter a ghost story alone, the answer would be “Absolutely not!” This was, of course, because of my terrible mental fortitude, but even if I had to explain myself to my superiors without bringing up that flaw in my personality, I had a valid excuse. It was only reasonable to have backup available in case of emergency, right? That was why the company organized everyone in squads to begin with.

But today, my squad...

Section Chief Lee was busy. Supervisor Park was busy. Assistant Manager Eun was busy.

Busy with what? Irrelevant. No matter what it was, it meant the same thing: out of all the members of D-squad, I was the only one available when the new request came in.

Kei sighed. It was not, but Kei already knew what Sho’s opinion of such reasons was. He wasn’t sure. . . ‟I want to know, Kei.” Sho said, squirming again but this time only to nudge closer. His rich voice lowered, a soft sound that . . . pulled at Kei. As though he needed any further encouragement to speak - to give in to Sho, practically anything he wanted. ‟Please?” Sho traced his fingertips along Kei’s jaw. ‟There was nothing of importance before you,” Kei said again, and Sho frowned, eyes narrowing, ‟but if you want it. . .”

He bolted across the broken ground, twisting with thoughtless ease around flying rubble and slashing metal. He couldn’t match his commander’s grace - none of them could - but no one among the army, theirs or the enemy, would match him. Likely they couldn’t even target him, not while he was moving. He skidded a little, gravel thrown up around his boots, as he came to a stop, already ducking down, landing on one knee. He barely felt the bite of something - gravel, broken metal, who knew - at his knee. Zero was utterly still before him, sprawled like-

A dull scrape of teeth down his neck made Noritsune hiss, arching; the arch brought him into better contact with Kikuoumaru as he pushed himself further up over Noritsune. His breath caught and only the weight of both of them pressed close kept him there as he twisted reflexively. ‟Master.” Kikuoumaru breathed against his jaw, his cheek, Ginroumaru leaning just high enough to catch his eye around Kikuoumaru.

Noritsune sighed luxuriously, fingers tangled in his companions’ hair, basking in their warmth and boundless, affectionate devotion. ‟Good boys.” he said, fond warmth curling through him as much as the hotter sparks of pleasure. He stretched languidly, rubbing his knuckles along Kikuoumaru’s spine, palming Ginroumaru’s hip, and closed his eyes.

What damage had been done. He’d been sickened enough by the things he read in neat, impersonal reports as part of the team maintaining the GHOST squad - actually seeing what was left. . . It had begun when Rei came back to them. When Ryuichi had finally eked enough freedom to leave the Hallemeier Institute, even briefly; to visit Maria again. She had nearly died that day, perhaps they both had, before Rei- Rei had saved them both, appearing out of nowhere, then simply spirited them away.
