I'm strongly considering making worldbuilding posts about my various writing. I'd probably want to get tags set up so people can filter it if they want, and I'd have to decide how often I'd be doing it.

Having said that, if there's something you're interested in hearing about, you can send an ask. Or if you have a tag you'd prefer to block, you can send in an ask or a reply to this and I'll make a list and see how reasonably long it gets (I will not use all the tags, this is just to see if there's a popular one between people)

No I am not limiting this to fics. A few of y'all know about the original fic plodding around with the brain dust, and you're welcome to ask about those too

If you're like "hey I want to but don't know what to ask about" here's a quick breakdown

Fanfic: Voidal Manifest & Blink of an Eye, Die A Hero, Of Murder Magic and Glamour. All of these are either set in the world of Minecraft, or are based off characters from various mc servers, or both. If you want to check them out, I linked them, but also I know it's not everyone's thing.

Original Fic:

Royal Flush- 1920s Boston. Organized crime, speakeasies, police corruption (and the like three officers who try really hard to not get corrupted), and human connection. Features a wide cast of characters from various backgrounds, like five different sets of organized crime groups, and, while definitely fiction, is supposed to solidly be in the realm of plausible.

Royal Duty- fantasy, set in a country called the Realms. It's got royalty, but most of the government is elected. The Realms has seven realms, each named after their respective number (both because I don't want to name them and because there are plot reasons). Follows Crescent Goldmoon, the prince, as he discovers and tries to deal with a very unpleasant demon problem. Also features things like magically boosted knight/noble relations, an arranged marriage where they've been talking to each other for years and are perfectly chill with it, and magic based on thread and fabric craft.

Misc:

We can talk about my various worldbuilding processes too! If you have a question about how I do things in general, don't be afraid to ask.

Tags to filter:

"potato brainworms" will be applied to all of them, "potato wb mc" to the fanfics listed, and "potato wb og" to the original fics listed

#i do not want to clutter up the minecraft tag with my fanfic worldbuilding posts #so those tags are what I've got to try and prevent that #obviously it's not gonna work all of the time but I'm hoping it'll minimize it #potato brainworms

i feel like so many people misunderstand redemption arcs. they’re not about forgiving past actions. they’re not about softening previous behavior. redemption arcs are about realizing past behavior was heinous and resolving to be better, do better. that’s why so many redemption arcs fall apart upon close scrutiny.

punkfistfights

redemption arcs do not rely on forgiveness! if a character is behaving a certain way just to be forgiven, that is not a good redemption arc! redemption arcs rely on people realizing their own behavior was bad and that they need to own up to the consequences. and those consequences can often include a lack of forgiveness!

the draw of arranged marriage AUs to me is really the way the dubcon of it all binds them together. neither of them have a choice in being here, something else is foisting this upon them whether that’s their parents or the political situation around them or expectation or something else, but the point is that they don’t get that one choice. so they have to make a choice somewhere else, that now that they’re here, they’re going to make it work. they’re each other’s only allies, in this cage built around them. they may have been coerced into swearing to stand by each other through anything, but they did swear.

big fan of when a character is dead and the narrative frames them in a very angelic, soft, gentle manner but then it turns out not only are they still alive (plot twist) but theyre alive in the most gruesome and horrific way. your loving kind mentor who motivates you to fight in their memory came back wrong and theres blood and dirt under their fingernails from clawing they way out of the grave.

you have permission to pick that 2 year old "abandoned" project back up. it's not mad at you for setting it aside. and maybe time and distance have helped ease or erase the things that made you put it down in the first place.
