requii’s writeblr intro
hi everyone! my original writeblr was @lace-and-lacuna but since it was a side blog, visibility was slim and my dash and reblogs were cluttered. so, i wanted to make a proper writeblr and a writeblr introduction to go with it! here we go!
【hi! my name is】 requii !
【preferred pronouns】she / her
【age】24
【star sign】aquarius ♒
【you can find me @】 www.requiemesque.tumblr.com
【url origin】oh, requiemesque? if you haven’t found out yet, i am highly driven by aesthetics, and i’ve always loved the “esque” suffix—it’s such a pretty way of saying “ish,” conveying likeness but uncertainty at the same time. but requiem? oh, requiem i claim because a requiem is a mass celebrated for the repose of the souls of the dead, a dirge, a thing of beauty and of tragedy, and i excel at nothing if not tragedy.
【rated ___ for ____】nc-17+ for no children under 17 permitted, rated for sensitive topics, potentially graphic violence, smut, etc. i will always use tags judiciously, and i understand that tiny humans may follow me and read some of the fluffier things i post, and that i cannot control that, but please do be aware that i deal with some dark and heavy things at time and though i portray them with beautiful language, you have been warned. i write primarily for late teen to young- and new-adult audiences.
【genres】i write dark and grim fantasy, a touch of urban decay and modern magic,cyberpunk sci-fi, and aesthetic-heavy vignettes and romances, all with a twist toward the darker side of the psyche and surreally supernatural. almost all of my stories feature female leads whose strength ranges from pure, raw power to soft aesthetics, wit, and sarcasm.
【current w.i.p.s】
➢ the legends of lacuna a series of epic fantasy novels set in the world of lacuna that redefines fate, life, death, and even godhood. i have approximately four novels in the work under this umbrella (working titles blood moon rising, zenith, penumbra, and syzygy), and my husband who has worked with me on these lovelies for ten years plus now has equally as many planned. the two sets share characters and crossover in timeline, but both explore different characters and fill in the gaps for each other. publishing these stories would be our dream, but hey, if all i do is write and cook up shitty aus for the characters and enjoy having them in my head, that’s fine too. rated pg13 to nc-17+ depending on the book.
➢ simulacra, a spin-off-but-not-really from the legends of lacuna series, simulacra is a cyberpunk sci-fi fantasy taking place in a pocket dimension that consists of one city torn in two sides. follow serenity (a.k.a. queen) and her deck of cards as she plays two sides in a war, and see if you can answer the question she poses at the beginning of her tale: what is the difference between law, ethics, and morals? and more importantly, what does that mean for you? unrated as yet, tentatively set for pg13.
➢ stars and steel formerly lacebound and likely to change titles again before completion, a standalone fantasy novel with a princess-knight lead exploring ideas of autonomy and female sexuality, including evil plots and the resurrection of a dark goddess. warning: contains sensitive and potentially triggering topics including but not limited to sexual abuse and psychological manipulation. explicitly rated ma for mature audiences only.
➢ darling girl (when all else fails), originally a final fantasy fanfiction, darling girl is a tale of magic, mental health, and urban decay set within an underground circus where not everything is smoke and mirrors. rated pg13.
➢ paper tigers always burn, zarachiel sa’bath does not believe in anything she cannot see bleed, gods and devils and angels at the very back of her thoughts. her whole life has been dedicated to disproving them, and the young archaeologist even now works on recreating russia’s famous “well to hell” in an effort to debunk the mystery with science once and for all, but her nights are plagued with nightmares and a melody she does not remember learning. a melody they find playing eerily in the background of the original well’s recordings. zarachiel does not believe in gods, but she is starting to believe in hell. rated nc-17+.
【miscellaneous】moodboards galore, music, aesthetics out the ass, and the occasional fanfiction dribble or piece of fluff.
【interests】writing, of course! but in terms of reading and time investment, fantasy (particularly anything dark, epic, or based on fairytale reinterpretations), @viziepop ’s art and upcoming animation hazbin hotel, fanfiction, nature, astrology and astronomy, alchemy, d o g s, werewolves, angels, demons, fae, the whole supernatural lot, magic, and so on. in terms of hobbies, i firedance, and i’m an avid video gamer (rpgs, if you’re wondering)
【music】smash into pieces, icon for hire, fall out boy, panic! at the disco, halsey, the score, against the current, ed sheeran, eminem, hollywood undead, you see where this is going, right? anything from hardcore, bass-dropping, wall-shaking rock to edm, dubstep, and soft-soul chillstep.
【favorite weather】rain
【favorite drink】coffee or a glass of sweet tea
