Loke's writing a quiet day where she gets to roam around the city without anyone being upset or any hiccups while around. Magnar is either writing the best weather and a nice summer day OR a spicy fantasy since Loke's taken to reading #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #AwesomeCharacters

I'm avoiding the giant pile of work on my desk, so here is a rare bsky share of my dog living the life. I'm so jealous.

Me: That was so much fun! Thanks! Betti and Kal don't interact together until book 5ish, but Betti IS in book 1! Hopefully out in June '27. I snip from book 1 a lot and if I go to others, I usually mention which if you wanna follow along with their antics. Book 1 mood board below! #QueerCharChat

Thanks for hosting Niki! This was fun. I'm targeting June for release of book 1 in the Itzam series. It follows Loke, a priestess trying to save her kind from persecution. She collects companions and goes on side quests to find out what's really happening. Think fantasy JRPG #SongsOfSeptember

Magnar did not quit, as she feared. or it would have made quite the short story (This is chapter 1) #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

“Yeah. And when you’re all done doing what you need to do, we’re going to have a chat.”
Loke wasn’t surprised. She figured he probably wanted to quit but was kind enough not to abandon her at a terrible hour in a city where she wasn't safe. She could give him enough for his services and try to find someone else, but that could wait until morning. Finding a quality guide and guard was not something readily available at this hour.

Today would have been my bestie's 49th birthday. I miss her so much every day even though it's already been a few years. It sucks so bad, but i'm also so glad she isn't here to see how bad everything has gotten. Though, she was supposed to haunt me, so i'm kinda pissed off 😅 *shouts at her urn*

Loke is not patient. She will just up and do what she wants and gets huffy when she can't. She irritates Ikal with sneaking out a lot. Magnar has serious levels of patience and Loke's spontaneity causes him so much stress #AwesomeCharacters #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Betti: I mean, any that really hurt Handsome, which was a lot. But also those things probably wouldn't have made us close at all, so a little conflicted there. She did at least not make me so much of a monster as I was. But I'd also like to talk about my backstory... Me: which one? #QueerCharChat

Magnar didn’t bother looking at Dias and continued staring at the sky. “A lot of things, actually. I’m worried most about tomorrow. There’s no reason to get our hopes up that we’ll have any impact and it’s clear that this country is primed for warfare. Even if we make it out of Zipan alive, I don’t know if it will even matter.”

I have a light user and a dark user. For light, they are able to emit light from their body (a walking nightlight) and create flashbangs. For dark, it's mostly used to see in the dark, but they could probably also blend seamlessly into shadows #SeptemberWorldbuilders

I'll let Loke and Blu explain the legend of Light and Dark spirits... #SeptemberWorldbuilders

“Not really a battle, but certainly some conflict. The darkness was envious about how much the people loved and worshiped the light and shunned the dark. Dark wanted to be appreciated, but took it too far. Because neither can exist without each other, they fought endlessly with no clear victor, which is why we have half a day of light and half a day of darkness. But dark always was resentful. Even today, darkness isn’t appreciated as much as the light is and is often taken for granted. According to the story, dark somehow was able to engulf light’s core. Light had enough love and admiration that no one would notice for eons that it would eventually fade.”
“That’s quite a sad tale. I feel a little bad for dark, but that wasn’t a good thing to do to light, either.” Blu was following her story as his eyes moved along the murals. He was able to see most of it as she told the story.
“That’s largely the sentiment, except the story does continue and not a lot of people remember the rest of it. Light vowed get their revenge as well and cursed Darkness that if the light core were to ever burn out, the darkness that overtook everything would be a darkness that would destroy the world and there wouldn’t be anyone to worship anything.”

Loke is reading. Magnar will probably be playing in the greenhouses because work is relaxing. Kalua will be at the piano, but if he is relaxed, it's a gentle tune. Betti is in the parlor listening to Kalua but playing solitaire #AwesomeCharacters #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Betti: I'm certainly no hero, that's Handsome's role. Sometimes a villain, frequently a bystander/observer. I worked for the assassin's guild for decades, I've done some really awful shit. Kalua: But you retired from the guild. B: Yep. But I'm still never going to be a hero #QueerCharChat

Just about all my "nation" usages were smack in the middle of something i'm trying to keep quiet. so, this should be safe... #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIPSnips

“Caax’s crop failure is our problem too, you know. We’re doing what we can to support them, but it’s been pretty hard. I don’t know what you mean about Teo specifically.” Edras’s confidence was returning and he was now sitting upright without any hint of his previous anxiety.

She knew he wasn’t being honest since just about everyone in the city and countryside had been chatting about it, but she just let him go for the moment. “There’s widespread genocide of Biyeho in the entirety of Caax. Teo is horrifying in that they are making a public spectacle of murder. Rumor also has it that they are going to start offering a bounty for Biyeho.”

“Why does any of that concern me?” Edras dismissed.

Loke took a deep breath, not wanting to completely lose her temper. “Because, at some point the people who wish to have some money to keep from starving to death will start turning in their neighbors, regardless of religious affiliation. As a neighboring nation, its sentiment is already spreading into our countryside. I know you aren’t terribly concerned with our specific plight, but I figure that could directly affect some of your family and friends.”

Betti, no contest. He's been near-lethally injured in a mine collapse, stabbed, shot with arrows, probably bitten, nearly drowned, electrocuted, you name it. He's had some time not doing dangerous things, so most of his scars are old, but plentiful. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #AwesomeCharacters
