I've been no home net/mobile only since Easter.

It's hard to browse dw on mobile 😭

I just a little bit ago figured out how to get Tumblr on this phone. Trying in windows because Tumblr app is a disaster.

I'll have to rig up a mobile Hotspot to post more.


2025 sucked, but happy holigays y'all.

One minor gripe about Galar is it randomly removed the ability for Meowth/Persian to use False Swipe.

I went a wiki-ing and Persian can continually use False swipe in quite a few other gens. But Galar randomly made False Swipe really rare for some reason.

Makes me >:( because I wanted to use my Persian for utility. Gem power/Pay Day/Bite or crunch/False swipe, and now I can't do that moveset!!

Don't take away my utility Meowth, Galar! That's MEAN.

I think I really just need to say every four years, I take any sorts of November writing challenges off. I planned it for months, but, doomscrolling.

Ugh.

Trackbear.app for all your writing tracking needs-- be it Nano, Ex-Nano, or otherwise.

Title: The Price
Series: FE4/5
Character/pairing: Reinhardt/Ishtar
Rating: PG-13.
Summary: To bring back Princess Ishtar's smile, Reinhardt is willing to do anything. Be it murder, or betrayal.
Author's note:

CW: Canon-typical violence. (Maybe a little harsher than canon, but violent assassination is pretty in line with general Jugdral content warnings.)

And I guess a warning for the kind of relationship where killing someone is a token of love. But that was already implied.

This AU assumes an alternate timeline where:
-Reinhardt wasn't dismissed so much as Ish told him "go lay low for a while" and he helped her betray the empire.
Reinhardt never joined the River Thracia, because he was ordered to stay close.
Ish overheard the convo between Manfroy and Veld that reveals Loptous church was using Friege as cannon fodder and she's fucking pissed.
It's the final battle, but neither Rein or Ish has died.
Ish is still in the more gray area of betraying Julius while still being in his army.

Title: House
Series: FE9/10
Character/pairing: Ike/Soren, Mist
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Mist, Soren and Ike play house.
Word count:
Author's note:

Done for the IkeSoren zine. There's leftover sales that will start on 4/20/2024 see here for details. (I have it and can say it is 100% worth it. It's gorgeous and I'm very proud of everyone involved who worked to make such a work of art.)

Thanks to the on-staff editors at the zine for all betaing/editing.

Mildly divergent AU, but only in timeline. Assumes that Soren reunited when he was rather young and while Sephiran wiped some of his memories, the memories of Soren weren't taken with them.

The rest is the same, however.
