I said I’d start posting snippets of WIPs that I have, and while I don’t have a ton RN, here’s something that’s gonna be a longer fic with Shingen and a more vaguely personalized Mc:
It's the hitch of her breath that brings him back, away from the never-ending trails of thoughts that he’s constantly found himself walking through. It's enough to pause his own breath, until he can make out her figure in the darkness, only vaguely illuminated by the red light of what she called her alarm clock. When he sees her roll onto her back, her shoulders relaxed, he exhales.
That's enough for tonight.
But it isn't. Even as he lays back down beside her, a secure arm against her soft middle, he finds himself mentally inching towards those pathways of thoughts he loathes. Even with his life back in his grasp, Shingen finds that his years of coping with the aftermath of his own demise has left patterns in his mind that he can't erase. The constant planning on what to do when he's gone, if this or that doesn't work out.

Yehaw the current WIP has like. 1330 words? It’s still not even close to being done so oof but, it’s something I’m slowly workin on. Hopefully folks will enjoy it!
A few months ago a friendo of mine suggested a Lance/Mc/Jonah fic idea and, unfortunately, I couldn’t get enough steam to finish it and now I don’t have the steam to finish it still. Maybe one day in the future? But since I have No Idea what the one day would be, here’s a - note style of just talking about it hahah fuck me
- The fic was supposed to start out with a noting, or scene, of it being obvious that Lance was Working on expressing his emotions more. More acts where his caring nature was slipping out.
- The majority of the fic was Alice and Jonah cooking Lance a meal, akin to, you know, what happens in his route. They’ve gotten into the habit of cooking for him before when Amon was still controlling Lance, but due to all of the meetings taking place of discussing peace with the black army, and what that means for cradle, no one has Had the time.
-Because of this, once theres a few days break in between, Jonah goes to Alice to say he wants them to cook for lance again, since he’s worried Lance may have gotten back into the Not Eating habit on accident again. Alice agrees, ofc, and the two set up a meal plan and go shopping and get enough supplies for leftovers/in case other members want some
- Jonah is a bit huffy because he’s primarily wanting this meal to be for Lance Only (As in, making it tailored to his tastes and just end all making sure he Eats)
-The next day they start prepping after breakfast, and by dinner time they have everything ready to cook. Jonah messes up a few times, and Alice pretends as though it was her fault if needed (with jonah Not adding onto that, just getting red and shushing her.) It takes a while, but eventually, they’re able to present it to Lance after some possible interruptions from Others
- When they serve the food to Lance, there is a small conversation where they point out he hasn’t been eating much again, and! Extremely cheesy fic point where Lance ends up smiling and making it clear how much he appreciates them caring enough to fret over a meal all day for him
-After he tastes it, theres a moment where Jonah and Alice end up staring at him waiting for his reaction. He ends up laughing gently at their intense expressions, telling them its great. When they sigh with relief, Lance asks them why they’re not eating along with them, and gently tugs them to sit down and join him (Because with Jonah’s Excessive Gene god knows they probably made too much)
-Jonah tries to argue, but then Alice points out that the kings right hand should keep healthy too. Jonah finally agrees (with another Cheesy fic moment where he is BLushing. Im so great at cheese i-) and they all sit down to eat, something something lance saying something to imply that they both are his dessert- sdfjhdfbgjdsf
and thAT WAS IT it was so cute when my friend mentioned it and look at how I murdered it-
I did actually try writing this out like. At the beginning of june:
Now that peace was being worked out between both of the armies in Cradle, Alice found herself starting to appreciate the area more with each passing day. With Lancelot having near constant meetings with the leaders of the Black Army, she was spending more time browsing the stores and getting to know the townsfolk little by little, as she patiently waited to see him again.
Often, once everything was said and done, there wasn't much time to spend with Lancelot at the end of the day. Unless he had the rare day 'free', the most they had together was a few hours out of the day, and while she understood the importance behind why he was so busy, she couldn't help but have worries regardless.
Some of them, she quickly found, were shared by a few others.
As another set of meetings ended and the Red army officers were making their way back to headquarters, she was ‘greeted’ by another familiar face before she could find Lancelot.
“Oh, Jonah, hell-”
“Alice! I need to talk to you!”
Jonah, doing a poor attempt at whispering, was already reaching for her shoulder to guide her elsewhere before she could even get a full sentence out.
“Ah, but what about Lance?”
“I know you two want to see each other, but we need to talk first.”
And just like that, Jonah had quickly found an unoccupied room for them to briefly discuss what was so important.
However, even as insistent as he was to get them alone, now it was if he’d lost a majority of his previous confidence. As Alice stood there waiting, all Jonah was doing was attempting to speak, then looking aside with a pout she knew he would deny having.
“Jonah…? What was so important?” She gently prodded.
After another moment, he finally sighed.
“King Lancelot...Has been neglecting himself again, and I hadn’t realized until today.”
Ah, that was why he was so upset, she realized. When this first came to his attention, he had beat himself up sorely as he had failed part of his duty as Queen. Before he could start down that path again, Alice nodded as she took ahold of one of his hands.
“I was worried he was doing that! He probably started it up again out of habit because you’ve all been so busy,” With a soft encouraging would fit better considering the context smile, she met his eyes. “We can just start cooking meals again for him like last time and everything will be alright again, okay?”
“Okay…” And then, as if his confidence hit him back all at once, Jonah straightened up with a small flush on his cheeks. “I mean- Right, that’s exactly what I was going to suggest!”
Chuckling, Alice let go of his hand as they started to head towards the door.
“You’ve been keeping up with your meals too, right?”
“Of course!” He had said it with a voice suggesting she was absurd for asking so, but that blush only grew brighter as they left the room.
wheezes you can tell why I dropped it.
Sometimes!!! Even if you really wanna write a fic!! You’re not gonna be able to get all the words out, or the scenes perfect, or make it sound as coherent as it plays out in your head!! and maybe one day you’ll be able to return to it to spruce it up!
