Shout out to the amazing @sonderviel on insta for making my gay little Fast Car dreams come true! Kachow comrades <3

AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE Y'ALL A WRITING UPDATE:

I finished up my palatines gift for the wonderful @ultimate-fenris-with-a-sword (as part of a Valentines Gift Exchange over on a KPDH discord server). My prompt was: One of the girls exploring butch identity. You can read it here!

I have also recently written a couple short stories that have that valentines vibe!

Tear Down These Walls (of my Castle of Burgundy) - Allegorical_Cave_Dweller - KPop Demon Hunters (2025) [Archive of Our Own]

"Zoey is busy trying to win a boardgame tournament and finally give rise to her pig empire. But Celine continues to be... so damn distracting."

Don't, you'll Catch a Cold - Allegorical_Cave_Dweller - KPop Demon Hunters (2025) [Archive of Our Own]

"Mira’s life is small: cold mornings, lonely nights, and bologna sandwich breakfasts. That is until she crosses paths with the woman next door."

And of course if you would like to read the fic that the art was made for it's:

nature documentary but the narration is just weird enough to make you question it

[camblogarchive]

“Some fish can walk out of water, so remember that next time.”

[camblogarchive]

“You might think you’re safe, but horses are omnivores”

[toxicglooo]

please watch the round planet on netflix it’s exactly like that 

[torirosepatrocolus]

first in my bloodline to read this much gay fanfiction

[theallegoricalcavedweller]

Possible AU idea.

Fullmetal Alchemist x KPOP Demon Hunters.

That is an incredible idea. My currently rumira pilled heart immediately went to state alchemist Rumi (uptight and incredibly talented) and a self taught alchemist Mira (fiercely protective and more than willing to -bend- the rules). So so many possibilities in that world

[yaketysmax]

FULL HONMOON ALCHEMIST! Rumi is shorter than Mira (mad about it) and loves RULES Mira is a rebel with a cool coat Zozo got that armour made specially with rude engravings and welded space buns and it is a CRIME AGAINST TASTE.

eyecrimes for @theallegoricalcavedweller

Writing Update!

Hi y’all :))))

As some of you may know I just finished my fic Our Shared Pulse WOO HOO to that, and now I am a bit more free to write and finish the other two…

THAT BEING SAID I am traveling all of July back to Mother Russia to visit family, which means I will have spotty access to my Google Docs and maybe not even Tumblr. My plan is to write the next chapter of Fast Car, and then focus on finishing up Evidence of Us!

The most likely timeline for release is that Fast Car chapter will update in early August, after I return from my trip. And Evidence of Us will update sometime in September. After that I will finally be a mother of ONE and be able to focus all my efforts on finishing up FC.

I hope everyone has a lovely summer!!!!

PS. In leu of my trip to Russia I want to plug my beloved Don’t, You’ll Catch a Cold, Russian Mira one shots <3

! ! ! ! ! TODAY! ! ! ! !

I will be posting the finale of Our Shared Pulse tonight ~ 8pm PST >:))))

Thank you to everyone who has read this behemoth of a fic and stuck through the weird premise 🥹 I decided to condense the last three chapters into one huge one with an epilogue so the entire thing will finally be complete.

If anyone wants to start reading before the finale hits, here is the link:

Pull me to the ground chapter 2

Two women step in when a guy gets pushy with Rumi at a bar. What happens after is meant to be a one-night stand, nothing more.

Our Shared Pulse Finale Sneak Peek!

Damn it. Damn it. Damn it!

She swung the blade with her whole torso, and finally Mira’s jagged tip caught on the demon hide. She tried to drive the blade further, to cut the flesh that kept her stuck but her affixed leg limited her angels. There was no choice, if she didn’t get out of this trap, they were all dead.

“What are you—?!” Mira and Zoey’s voices echoed in her mind as she twisted more and more.

Her knee bone gridlocked – offering a moment of resistance, a tenuous opportunity to change her mind.

And she wanted to. God, she wanted to.

Every instinct screamed to stop, to pull back, to survive the next second instead of gambling the next ten.

But with every passing moment, her chances of winning this fight shrank. Smaller. Smaller still with a broken leg. Then again… if she didn’t do anything, she’d just get smashed, and that would be that.

She took a deep breath.

Her mind didn’t change.

So her bone snapped.

I have been holding on to this art for AGES, and I can no longer, pls look at it. I love it. Rumi from first half of the story with her end of story counter part >:)

Art by the fantastic @jamzbug go check out their art!!!!

Not too long ago I went to a mall near me and when stopping at a Barnes and Nobles that's going to close in the summer I saw 2 K-Pop Demon Hunters magazines.

I browsed through them and I wanted to share some interesting stuff I saw.

In KPop Demon Hunters Anthem Movie Guide Magazine it had a quiz and one of the questions had what I thought were amusing possible answers.

In SFX's The Unofficial Guide to KPOP Demon Hunters it had

Rumi and Mira get a last name but not Zoey??

Also the fact that Rumi's last name is Kang when her mother, the only one of her parents to HAVE a name is Ryu is insane. Also I don't care that it came from an illustration by an official Netflix artist responsible for background character designs. Rumi isn't a background character so why would they get any say on Rumi's last name??

Also considering the Saja boys besides don't get much focus I get grouping them together but it's only Derpy we see on the contents page? LOL.

Writing update!

Another week another update :)

Here is where we are so far:

Fast Car: New chapter just released go check it out! Chapter 9 is getting outlined. Hoping for a mid or late June release.

Our Shared Pulse: Outline complete, actively writing the last chapter! Its slow going because this chapter will be significantly longer than some of the more recent ones and it will have to wait for beta. So, I'm hoping if all goes well it will release mid-June!

Evidence of Us: Stand still for now, but then again as I always say I will finish it off in one go after OSP is done <3

Likely release order:

OSP finale -> FC ch9 -> EoU at least 2-3 chapters if not through the finale -> FC ch 10.

Thank you for sticking around and reading this humble soup!
