Does the #D&D side of bluesky know i wrote a novella with all my pcs from abandoned campaigns 👀 And there's a slutty bisexual tiefling? And a werewolf with chronic lyme disease? And a human fighter who still isn't over his ex? And a chosen one whose sister saved the day instead? No?

So fair!! I'm also a wimp about horror so i usually describe it as high angst with horror elements. I would grade it around the same level as Dimension20: Neverafter (e1). Below Hell Followed With Us by AJW But here's a couple of example pages from one of the dreams so you can vibe check 4 yourself!

#WIPsnips i searched my whole document for "wine" and this was the only instance. TW for implied past instance of sexual assault! #transmmc #queerwriter #theghostsofarthamgothard

Tobias's clothes are soaked through with sweat, and he strips them off, pulling on a new shirt with ribcage cut-out shapes in the back, fishnet tights, and a pair of wine-colored shorts that hug his ass.

It's nights like these when he needs to remind himself the most that he has a body, that it's his; that it belongs to him. He's not a desperate twig of a preteen anymore—any man would be damn lucky to touch him, and anyone who did without consent would join the ranks of Tobias and Alden's dead.

Also not to self-rec on main but they blurbed my own trans fantasy novella with "if you've ever come out of a DnD campaign with a whole new gender, this is your book," soooooo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

tumblr is having a great one about this, little masterpiece of a post I'd say

first post reads: Pro-censorship wattpad refugees drama is so funny to me because when I started using ao3 as a kid I was a devout mormon and I thought that reading anything even remotely pornagraphic was a sin and would ruin my life. So when I was 13 and found ao3 I went "oh awesome I found a fanfic website with a filtering system so I won't ever randomly stumble into porn. This is great! I was really worried about seeing something I didn't want to see on the other platforms." I didn't read any smut online until like three years later. If a mormon 13 year old can figure out 'don't like don't read' wattpad users can too cmon you guys i believe in you.
reblog reads: "you're less internet savy than a 13 year old mormon" is a diabolical thing to say to someone, I support it

Ooooooh there's something sooo juicy about enemies to lovers!! I've read less books that use the soulmate trope because i get frustrated with it easily (although i love watching it get subverted). But *A Wolf Steps in Blood* by Tamara Jerée is a novella with fated mates that i ADORED!!

today i am learning
to take anxiety by the hand
pass a squeeze of reassurance through
our tightly twisted fingertips
and teach this trembling, fragile beast
that we are (and yet will be)
okay.
