If anon won't spark it, I will.

Who's the gayest character in each of your books!

from: @world-of-iridensia

>:(

yall we are NOT doing this. server already flamed me on numerous occasions for apparently having such an abhorrent gaydar that i failed to recognize the sheer magnitude of alleged queers in my own books.

ask them. since apparently...

[the-golden-comet]

not an ask, per se, but just wanted to give you some appreciation. you really are such a gem to the writeblr community and make it such a safe and inclusive space for everyone. from your kindness to your engagement in everyone, to your overall creative contributions (tag games, your writing, your art and music—all of it)

keep shining, golden <3 you’re a shooting star

(p.s. can we be friends? pretty pls lmao)

Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much for this message @thecomfywriter !! 😭😭😭 I really want to try and make every space I thrive in such a safe and inclusive space, so you saying this means so much to me. Thank you so much!! 🫂✨

Of course we can be friends!! I love connecting with every beautiful mind. The upside of this community is there are so many friendly authors and writers. The flip side of that is…. there are so many of you! I want to connect with as many people as possible, but know and understand the challenges of balancing my work, life, and social connections.

So, as a compromise: my DMs are always, always ALWAYS open. I tell this to everyone, so if people want to chat more 1 on 1 with me, or share some writing, or just hang out, please please PLEASE reach out!! I’m more than happy to check out whatever you wish to share, or hop on to tag lists, and engage with our community!

And speaking of, don’t think I haven’t noticed how friendly YOU’VE been, either! You’ve been wonderfully kind to everyone on writeblr, actively engaged in ask boxes, tag games, and in the comments of story snippets. I see you around too, and I smile that you’re helping contribute to the positivity in this community. Thank YOU. 🫂💛✨

[satohqbanana]

you.

🫵

i hope you are good. i trawled your blog looking for the romance questions ask game you did and i COULDN'T FIND IT (L) so i'm gonna pull something outta thin air and ask something random:

all your couples are required to go to couples therapy. no exceptions. how are they all faring? who is fighting? who is making the therapist feel lonely? how is everyone's session?

Me?!

Thanks for checking in! But, yeah, uh, no I'm still not feeling well enough. Might actually try roleplaying 1x1 again soon, see if that can help alleviate some issues I've been running into.

It's difficult to answer your question without spoiling anything, or without making it feel jarring, given that the story of Arcanium spans a couple generations and people go through character development. But, let's go. SPOILERS AHEAD.

Mervin is fighting Gracie one-sidedly. Gracie tears up, but she keeps silent. Therapist thinks that while Mervin has a point, he should also consider that maybe he's part of the problem when all he expects her to be is a wife and a mom.

Rena definitely has some issues if she disregards apologizing for anything at all and she thinks it's fun to flirt with other guys when she's in a mutual understanding with Lyarshu. The therapist is initially worried about the dude, but upon further prodding, learns that Lyarshu may actually be turning her own game against her.

The therapist doesn't get a word in between Erudan and Anche telling them of worries for the future, especially since Erudan doesn't have family left. The therapist can tell that they're gonna be good parents and role models.

A shouting match occurs in the room right before the therapist even notices that they're booked with Kaine, Aria, and Katarina. Katarina sits there, almost bored, while Kaine and Aria are intensely debating on a concept that the therapist can barely grasp. Katarina provides context: "They started talking about things on magic they disagree about." She pauses and adds, "It's purely academic. Our son is fine."

The therapist goes to meet said son, Ireus, and his beloved spouse. Said spouse has hidden herself under a cloak of darkness and retreated to the corner. Ireus cannot coax her into talking with the therapist, who she deems as a stranger. He threatens to leave her alone with the therapist. Fuming, she immediately leaves instead. The therapist nods. This is not something they can easily intervene with.

The therapist pages a certain Lukas and Lerln. Only Lerln shows up. She avoids eye contact and answers curtly. She barely even mentions Lukas, but she recommends paging a certain Renata and Casimir for fun.

Which the therapist does. Nobody answers. Then a hand appears from the wall to give a note that says, "NOT FUNNY."

The next ones on the appointment table are Evrien, Jakub, and their daughter, Czenne. Wait, why is a whole family at a couple's therapy session? The therapist goes into the room bracing themself for impact, and exits crying themself. No one is the AH; everyone just a victim of their circumstances.

The therapist prepares themself for the last couple of the day: Miven and Farun, a couple of fallen gods. The therapist enters the room and never comes out. When their colleagues investigate what happened, the cameras are bust and the room is empty.

(For additional context: Only Gracie and Ireus actually appear in Magia, while only Lukas, Lerln, Renata, and Casimir appear in Nasci. The rest are characters of Liberatio.)

which one of my ocs (that you know of) is most likely to survive whitehall?

Askmas Day Six!!!!!!

I will be answering this with Blaire, Cara, Caramel, Naliya, Shadow, Amaka, Evan, Morreial, Hilbert, and James. I will give how they'd die if I think they'd die and how likely it is.

Blaire: 10/10 she would be a perfect student, likely higher than Delilah possibly. I can see her becoming a Producer eventually. Her lack of morals, strong fighting, magical abilities, and intelligence would make her the perfect weapon for the School.

Cara: 2.5/10 There are three ways I could see her time in Whitehall coming to an end. I can see her dying in the battle against Caramel in room 241, Caramel dying and her leaving, running away and leaving the school. With the version of Caramels death I could even see her joining the Revolution. I can also see Cara possibly becoming a Producer if the situation is set up just right, if she never met Cara.

Caramel: 2.5/10 There are three ways that I can see it going. I can see Caramel and Cara getting attached, resulting in Caramels death. Their attachment results in Cara's death and leads to Caramel killing Cara and either falling in a way that allows Whitehall to wrap her in their arms and keep her as theirs or in a way that either they kill her or she joins the Revolution. If she didn't have Cara I could see her potentially being kept in the school until someone shows her true kindness and shows her how wrong it was.

Blaire, Shadow, Naliya, Hilbert: 10/10 they would survive easily. Blair, Hilbert and Naliya would definitely become Producers or attempt to while I see Shadow using his connections from Whitehall to get his way. I actually can see Hilbert taking on the same position Henry did as a character that you never see as something other than a Producer.

James: 7/10 I feel like he could survive but he won't be a top student, he'd just be there because he has to be and just pass because he's royalty. We love him but he'd likely be like Aereth when it comes to the school.

Amaka: 8/10 I feel like she could excel in it, however she'd likely struggle with the abuse and take down the school but overall she'll pass and survive.

Evan: 5/10 I feel like he's too sweet for the school which is a major weakness that along with his sword fighting struggles would likely result in his death however he is a royal so they would pass him and be unable to kill him.

Morreial: 10/10 the second factor out of this post is enough to make it clear that he can and will survive, he likely can excel and flip their teachings in a way that helps him in the long run. He seeks out therapy so not only can he survive and pass, taking all the lessons and the strength gained into his adult life but he'd also be able to heal, preventing himself from dying to what normally kills Whitehall students and allowing himself to fly, to succeed in ways no other student could.

This was really fun, I'd love more asks like this!

i saw your DILFFFFFF merlin (i believe that was his name yes? long dreads, dark skin, absolute dilf?) and i want to know everything now literally everything. specifically a compilation of all your favourite quotes from him pls and thank you :)))

Thanks for the question @thecomfywriter! :D

My current description of him (in a nutshell). Black trans aroace icon. Would probably look good in anything and has endless drip in his regular outfit. A highly empathetic, dignified, mellow, and smart person who struggles with schizophrenia, psychosis (as a result of his schizophrenia), anxiety, C-PTSD, and misophonia, but is still kind because he doesn’t want others to suffer what he’s been through. Secretly the God of Magic walking among mortals. Raised a literal dragon.

He’s so cool and pretty <3

Telling you everything would take a while, and might also contain a more than few spoilers (and I'm also hosting a Q&A currently which would ruin the purpose lol), but here's my Ao3! I have nine chapters of oneshots at the moment, and more to come. :D And of course, you're free to participate in the Q&A!

Here are a few of my favorite Merlin quotes from my published oneshots (in the chronological order they take place, not in the chronological order I wrote them lol). I probably have more, both from the published writing, and from unpublished writing I actually like sitting around, but... I'll be honest; I can't be bothered to look for it at the moment lol.

“Sorry,” his savior answered, not sounding sorry at all.

“Charlemagne?” Ganieda repeated incredulously. “Oh, I’m sorry, would you rather have me name him Scorch?” Merlin shot back.

“Maybe I should have introduced you to them,” Merlin idly mused while using the potion. “But I for all I know, Ganieda would have found that even stranger… she’s my younger sister, by the way. Two years younger, in fact, even if she is an adult and married, because for some reason, I age extremely slowly. Every five years is one year of aging. I wonder if you age slowly too?” Merlin wondered, and how did Merlin keep guessing and end up being right? Maybe it was luck, and if so, then maybe things would be better than they ever were with [Charlie's] parents. He'd be lucky enough to stay, he'd be lucky enough to grow up... Merlin kept talking, obviously not knowing his thoughts. “The woman you hadn’t met is Vivian, and she and Ganieda are married. Or you’d probably say they’re mates, now that I think about it. Either way, it’s completely disgusting, as I said. Everyone keeps saying ‘Oh, you’ll be next, Merlin, and you won’t find it disgusting when you find that special someone!’ No, fuck that.” The sudden outburst of language made him want to burst out laughing, but all he could manage was a little rumble. “Seriously, I don’t understand it! ‘You’ll understand when you’re older, Merlin,’- I’m sixty-five, so I’m not sure when I’ll understand. But who knows? Maybe now that I have you, they’ll stop teasing me about it. I can hope, at least.”

“Oh, sweetheart, I’m so glad you’re all right,” he whispers even though the dragon shows no signs of waking.

“Um- yes,” Merlin replies after a moment of them all just staring at each other. Then he turns back to the dragon, murmuring, “Shh. Are you hurt?”

“I know. I know. It’s all right,” Merlin replies, pressing relieved kisses into the parts of his head not covered in blood. “I’m just glad you’re safe.”

“[Charlie’s] not a pet,” Merlin snaps immediately, eyes shining brightly even behind his glasses, and the sudden change in mood is enough to put her hands up in surrender.

why did morreial retain his infantile memories?

He got exposed to weird magical fumes as a baby and now he has a perfect memory

Alternative reason: magical experiments

Third reason: He's Just Cool Like That
