#HeadsUp: As pointed out by @galatfemme.bsky.social, three of Patricia C. Wrede's Enchanted Forest books are at a good price: Dealing With Dragons (book "1"), Searching For Dragons (book "2"), and Talking to Dragons (book "4"), at $2, $3, and $3 respectively. I got some of each for random giveaway.

What with all the everything, I do feel guilty about not doing Fandom Trumps Hate this year. But I way overextended myself on it last year and I really want to focus on my original writing ...

I don't think I could pick one over the other - I like reading really good smut that gets a ton of characterization in the sex (eg KJ Charles), but it also feels really good to try to *write* characterization-ful smut. #WritingCommunity

A Bit of Whimsy
Roberta Seaport (Deepdarkwaters)

Summary:
Arts and crafts day goes extremely awry when Stede, Alma, Louis, and Lucius are somehow pulled from 2025 into the old oil seascape they embellished together. Unfortunately, what they added to the waves was a 1717 pirate battle surrounded by vicious hungry sea monsters.

Now Stede's the captive of a mouldy maniac, spared from threats of gruesome torture only as long as he keeps sharing all the Mozart and Bach he can remember from the future, while Lucius and the kids were saved from becoming sabre-toothed shark poo by the crew of the legendary Blackbeard, who is really nothing like the stories.

Sometimes you find your family in very unexpected places. And sometimes a mutiny and a velvety suit help.

This is one of my first attempts in a long time working with colors and by the end of it I was so exhausted I named this "Menstruating Consenting Lady" as in a late capitalism-fascist dystopia for adult content... ▫️ #nsfw #censorship

A first attempt at a colored piece, featuring a woman with long wavy gray hair, with her left arm up, being held by black shadowy hands, on her chest, pulling her white dress down, and in between her legs, where theres a visible line of menstrual blood following down her thighs. He has pointy teeth, a delicate and sacred face, sligghtly blushing, and has soft armpit hair. This a piece criticizing the 2025 censorship over NSFW artworks, women's bodies, sexuality and everything that followed the fascist agenda. If you'd like to support me, commission me through my DMS.

If you haven't given feedback yet, please do. The window is small. The terms on adult content are vague enough to put so many artists at risk of arbitrary interpretation. They conflate fictional situations with real-life abuse. Ask them to revise and clarify.

La Dama Pirata
Chocolatepot
Summary:
“The world is about to witness the Lady Pirate’s first business transaction,” Stede said, out loud to make it real. The dinghy rocked under her feet, and she stumbled forward toward the gunwhale. Everyone else was up on deck: time to follow along and greet her audience.

Her white suit was looking a little worse for wear, but it was fine. It was fine! The light was going, so any of the grime it had picked up in Jackie’z would probably just look like shadows. Cool, mysterious shadows.

Stede Bonnet, the Lady Pirate, attempts to treat with the Spanish navy. Things do not go as planned ...

I feel like she did us a favour; the 'is being ace a valid identity under the queer umbrella?' question is finally over. Yes, they 100% are, because JK Rowling gets off invalidating them. Case closed, no further discussion, embrace our ace siblings or suffer the black mold curse forever.

First fic I've posted in over a month! archiveofourown.org/works/644794... TGCF, post-canon, genderbend; HC pampering XL and eventual first time. Chapter 1 of 3.

Such a Simple Thing, by Chocolatepot
Summary: "She'd gone years and years without Hua Cheng around, she reminded herself daily. She hadn't even known who Hua Cheng was when they ran into each other at various points in their existences until so recently. Hua Cheng needed to put herself back together after being dispersed on her account! And think of how long Hua Cheng had waited for her. She should be patient and wait as long as it took to see her again."

And Xie Lian's patience is rewarded when Hua Cheng does return, and whisks her away for some pampering in Paradise Manor. But they both have a few emotional hurdles to get over ...
