Thing Thursday

Thank you for the tag @chimneyschewinggum here's another sneak peak from Not A Puck Bunny. Hope everyone enjoys!

"Yebanaya suka!" Ilya cursed, shouting while throwing his arms in the air and flipping off the TV as he watched Donkey Kong go ass over head, making Ilya lose the race. "Excuse me!" Sveta replied harshly, actually sounding offended which made Ilya wince. "Not you, Peach, fucking princess just red shelled me." Ilya grumbled explaining himself. He pushes a button on his controller starting another match as Sveta makes a delighted noise in the back of her throat. "Marley is there!" Ilya rolled his eyes, pressing the button to make Donkey Kong take off. "Put me on speaker phone, I wish to say hello to my second favorite hockey player." "You already are." He grumbled. "And you let us speak in Russkiy this entire time, that is very rude of you Ilyusha." Sveta scolds in her playful way. Ilya just snorted continuing to aggressively press buttons on his xbox controller. "Zdorovo, Marley, are you taking good care of our Ilyushka?" Sveta asked, flawlessly switching from Russkiy to Anglijskie. Ilya rolled his eyes again, letting the question hang for an uncomfortably long moment as he focused all of his attention on beating Rainbow Road. "Marley isn't here right now." Ilya finally said his voice flat and completely devoid of emotion. "He's in fucking Montreal." Ilya finishes, he doesn't bother trying to hide the bitterness that creeps into his voice. He can picture the way Sveta's brows wrinkle and her lips purse adorably in confusion. "Why the hell is he in Montreal?" She asks switching back to their native tongue.

Is it still ok to ask abou wips? Bc I'm really curious abt 🍼 Twelve Months

It absolutely is! I'm willing to keep answering asks about my long list of WIPs until I stop receiving asks 🙂

Twelve months is going to be another Shane/Cliff story. I've fallen in love with them as a ship while writing Not A Puck Bunny and want to keep writing about them for as long as I can.

Anyways Twelve Months is going to be another multi chapter fic that spans the first year of Shane and Cliff becoming parents. The story will span from the day their daughter is born until her first birthday.

Even though Twelve Months is going to be it's own story seperate from Not A Puck Bunny, I am going to keep Marley's backstory and charecterization from Puck Bunny because I genuinely love the back story I wrote for Cliff and it'll probably be a staple of any fics I write going forward that includes Cliff as a charecter.

Ask me about my WIPS

And since I was tagged by the incredibly talented @chimneyschewinggum (thank you for the tag!) And I am just finishing up doing a thorough self edit of chapter 9 of Not A Puck Bunny before sending it off to my beta, here is a little sneak peak of twelve months for Thing Thursday 🙂

The overhead lights were off, with only the less harsh side light bathing the room in a less harsh florecent light. If Shane'd had his way there wouldnt have been a single harsh florecent light anywhere near him while giving birth to his daughter. He wanted the his birth experience to be as calm and relaxing as possible. If Shane'd had it his way their daughter would have been born at home in his Cottage instead of a hospital. But Shane loves Cliff and would never do anything to purposefully hurt him. Cliff'd been an anxious mess at the prospect of a home birth. He'd even made a power point presentation that Yuna Hollander would have been proud of and had sat Shane down, walking him through every possible complication and possible risky scenario of things that could go wrong as well as the calculated distance between the cottage and every hospital in a two hour radius. So Shane had agreed to a hospital birth to soothe Cliff's anxieties about Shane giving birth. Now here they were in the best birthing suite that Ottawa had to offer the proud parents of Alysa-Lee Marleau Hollander. Her name had been another hotly debated topic among her parents. Shane had wanted her to have both him and Cliff's last names. Cliff did not. He thought that any variation of Hollander-Marleau-Poulin was to much.

Wizard skin is sometimes used in Anthropodermic bibliopegy, specifically wizards who were not all that good (The really good ones manage to keep most of their skin). The skin acts as a conduit to ease magic's channeling into a facsimile of life.

A friend of mine ran a villain campaign, and though I was not initially invited once a player dropped I was permitted to join. Shale was a genie warlock/eloquence bard, who was in the service of a rich Dao. Shale has kind of a silver surfer role -- basically, he's put into a dimension, builds a series of dungeons, which eventually have enough magic concentrated in them to crack open the world and call in the elemental plane of earth, allowing the minerals of the planet to be easily harvested.

Shale's genie lamp was a single gold coin.

His name is a pun on Sheol, feels like this is the last time I'll have the chance to bring that up.

A rough lodestone can easily can be disrupted by magic and magic users.

Peridot and its derivative materials work differently from others. Instead of pointing to each other, one half points windward, while the other points hub ward. Not really necessary for most ships, but a cute trinket for the elite.

The first piece of loot from Skies of Walltestia, this was found on the SSS Gibraltar, as a bit of false flag loot. I was inspired by the Dishonored series, which uses collectable painting loot to extend the player's knowledge of the world and encourage exploration. It turns out this sort of thing is more possible to achieve when you have an art department.

Loot didn't end up being a full genre of item type, I tended to lean on the SRD items in the future.

[ttrpgtreacle]

While a hardened lodetone is able to be used around magic users, a quality lodestone just has a more powerful sympathetic response, able to turn its own weight, not needing the liquid mercury infrastructure, and therefore requiring much less cost to maintain. A lodestone of such quality can be expected to be found 1/decade.
