Posting this as many places as I can to get as wide an audience as possible. Anyone who may have been in the Homestuck fandom up through 2017: Fi (faithbegetsfaith/temporalDecay) went and nuked her Ao3 and we're trying to source the missing pieces of the Distrait verse along with any of the unrelated works. Current collection can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Sd0PprL4tmYt9qc28_PBTaeP9WgKOHYCe5mJsePNpS0/edit If you have something you previously downloaded please let Xagave (discord #0368, tumblr https://xagave.tumblr.com/) know so it can get added to the google doc. Please share this in other places (Tumblr/Discord/Twitter ect); this was a much loved series and one of the pillars of Fandom Experience for Homestuck in it's heyday and it's devastating to lose it.
Prep work for this year’s March Eridan Piece, working out bodytypes and clothes for the Admin Trio from @temporaldecay‘s fic A distrait Life of Mistakes/Wreckstuck. I ended up switching out Eridan’s skirt for a different one.
tumblr is a butt and won’t let me upload audio files bigger than 10mb and also won’t let me upload more than one file a day and I can’t be bothered with trying to shrink the files smaller than they already are, so I’m going to be using clyp to upload my files and then link them here. I apologize for my habit of tripping over my own tongue and the background noise/static

So. I was thinking idly about my favorite Homestuck fanfic and my favorite fantrolls and... Suddenly I want the entirety of The Pact in my lair.
That is Twelve dragons. Twelve! Dammit. That is twelve too many, and I already have similar roles, it would be difficult to do this. Two blacksmiths is quite enough here, unless I make some more specialization... :/
Zillah: mountainous Fire lady, in rust colors, possibly playing with daub and the other interesting genes. Possibly a ridgeback, mirror, imperial, or guardian. Blacksmith warrior, specializes on making weapons for the clan.
Ignatz: Earth tree wildclaw or nocturne? Perhaps descended from Raiona's dergs? Plant Mage that helps the plan need to do less foraging and boost the production needed to support a growing lair. Otherwise he loves the secrets the lair keeps.
Phyllis: Light Fae. Goldenrod somewhere in there or maybe ivory. Other colors can be in the whites, the blacks, and the purples, but probably better if I keep to the golden green range. Engineer/inventor.
Harlow: Wind or Nature. Seer. Guardian? Maybe his charge is his visions - or making them come true. Spring, leaf, or green - hard to get a properly lime colour :/
Tyrell: Wind or Nature. ... Ok I have no idea what to do for Tyrell... a Guardian who failed his charge? The range of colours is probably closer to avocado her.
The Great Mother: ... Something in Jade and white and maize... Imperial? Snapper? Ridgeback? Skydancer? Wind.
Dhraid: I already have ambassadors. Lightning. What do I use an Orator for? Head of Ambassadors? Public Relations? Skydancer or Spiral or Wildclaw, probably have teal wings, some set of colours working with that.
Ulysses: Water Fae or Pearlcatcher or Mirror. One of the guards/warriors of the clan. Stonewash, azure, denim, steel as possible colours.
Linnea: Water or Shadow. Librarian of the History Archives. Spends some time helping teach the hatchlings History. Snapper? Coatl? Tundra? Snapper fits history thing. Spiral for the sleeping thing..
Spyros: Shadow Mirror, part of the hunters/guards.
Alston: Shadow or Arcane. Imperial, Pearlcatcher, probably Pearlcatcher.
You had been wholly unprepared to handle her, when you finally met her. You spent entire perigees dreaming of despair and helpless rage, of a young girl locked up in a gilded cage, tracing her own sign on the floor, over and over again, so as to not forget it. You had been young, then. Inexperienced. After meeting Tyrell, you had built up a cache of pity that went to waste when you actually met her. She was not broken, nor in need of mending or soothing. What you met was a graceful, dignified leader, beloved of her people and of anyone who met her, wise and determined to see her people strive on and survive.
-Flotsam, Chapter 8: Lime ʆ Prophet
These two ladies are Aideen Wukong, and The Orator, from temporalDecay's Wreckstuck and Distrait series. I have long loved The Orator, and find her, and her character arc fascinating. Also, I find it terribly sad, but that is because Fi likes to feed on our tears.
[8:54:22 AM] HM: I will make a scalemate for anyone who is willing to read a fanfiction with me.
Because if I'm going to do this to myself again I'm bringing someone down with me.
[11:52:10 AM] TJ: ... SCALEMATE!
[11:52:34 AM] HM: :oD
[11:53:00 AM] TJ: :DDD
[11:53:21 AM] TJ: I will do a lot of things for stuffed animals
[11:54:04 AM] HM: That is a good life plan
[11:54:09 AM] HM: sign away your soul here please, what color(s)? http://archiveofourown.org/works/445442/chapters/761872
