it's six sentence sunday! since i posted a fic this week, i'll instead be giving you six fun facts!
i wrote the end part of this months and months ago when i opened lamplight treebark requests and added it to the end of this--id originally been planning to make two fics, but bc i was busy i combined them. i think theyre a lot stronger together tho!
i planned to do a dance one for heat haze, but didnt get to it. so this is a spiritual successor to that. one day i will write a follow up to it where Ren has his body back, but i won't write that till moonlight 3 is out
my title was from the @treebarktitleswap event run by @apollothetransboy ! my submission was, uh, late, but still, theres a lot of really cool works in here--you can find all 45 pieces in this collection! please check it out bc theres a lotta rlly cool work in here!
ive been waiting to explain how Ren experiences the world for so long--ive been able to hint at it or imply it, but this is the first time i gotta rlly lay it all out. his relationship to touch especially fascinates me--he Used to like touch a lot when he had a body, and now it isn't really pleasant at all. but he holds onto what it used to be like and what it means to him, which is arguably not entirely healthy, but pretty interesting way to think.
i spent so long stuck on how to set this up so i want to thank @mrfroag for letting me bounce stuff off them and coming up w the whole. festival idea thing. that was their suggestion--i was jut gonna throw him to zombies and ????? for the music, but froag's idea of a nearby festival was. a lot better
speaking of, this gave me an excuse to do some world building i hadn't thought of, and will now have to quietly retcon in most towns having some kind of. walls? around them so theyre protected from roaming zombies/monsters. it's not just dogwarts!
and, bonus fact... theres now a lamplight fan discord server? crazy! i dont run it, and it's a bit small rn, but i AM in it. i think it'll be fun? im already using it to send fanart you guys @ me in. fun newsletter channel for me

@liloinkoink 's "the only place i don't feel cold" immediately gave me the primal urge to draw this. so here you go. WE LOVE LAMPLIGHT IN THIS HOUSEHOLD <3 <3 <3
waited until all my stuff for treebarkweek was up before posting it, even though i made it the day after the fic was posted

“I know you must be feeling pretty smug,” Martyn says, planting the lantern’s staff in the dirt.
I told you so, dude, Ren says, though Martyn unknowingly talks right over him.
"Yeah, I see you brightening, you can save your ‘I told you so’ for later,” Martyn mutters, making Ren laugh. “I think I need your help, milord."

part two of six sentence sunday. you got the au you know and love. now you get the bullshit for like ten people. this is also more than six but it's entirely for my own benefit. have you guys heard the good word about deadsea
“Are you alright?” Maruu asks. 
“Oh, I’m great,” he says, and he laughs. “I’ve always said I look best in red.”
He takes a few steps closer, stopping at the bounds of the farm. He stands in the wheat, half grown, and watches Maruu still at the water’s edge. 
“Syyrin’s still making her way back,” he adds, “But with how that godawful strip mine is, it’ll take her a while. For now, it’s just us.”
Lew isn’t sure if Maruu will think that’s a good thing or a bad thing. Maruu is more than familiar with what he’s like on red, but it’s one thing to share his fever and another thing entirely to suffer the brunt of it. 
Maruu takes a purposeful step out of the water. Her hands are clasped behind her back, and when she steps, the muddy ground squelches under her shoe. She makes a face, and Lew snickers, but it doesn’t stop her from closing about half the distance. 
That little red life instinct rears its ugly head again, a coiled snake ready to strike. 
“You should already know by now,” Lew says, the closest thing to a warning he’s willing to offer, “what I’m going to ask you.”
hey guys im back on my bullshit in another life series. shoutout to my death game soulmate @xmaruu11 for being insane with me in double life and in limited life over the past few months, we're having a lot of fun

this is way more than six sentences. i didnt count how many but ive been gone for many weeks so you get bonus ones. anyway i promise im still working on lamplight
“There’s a laboratory in the center of the city,” Impulse explains, “I only got to look at it briefly before we had to leave last time, but the redstone there is… weird.”
“Weird how?” Martyn asks. Impulse pauses, but Skizz answers for him.
“You don’t need to worry about that—Etho is the one going down there to figure out the circuit and how it works!” Skizz says, gesturing to Etho, who gives a thumbs up. If the mild confusion in his eyes is anything to go by, Etho doesn’t actually seem to have been paying attention at all. Bdubs, however, has been, and he cuts in immediately. 
“Me too! I’m just as good at redstone as Etho is—better, even! I’ll be taking just as close notes as Etho is!” Bdubs says. 
Martyn finds himself wondering if his payment for the job hinges on whether or not Etho and Bdubs can actually note down the redstone properly. For his own sake, he hopes not. 
“Right,” Martyn says, “How do we know if we’ve found the lab?” Impulse and Skizz share another look. 
“It’s below, uh… we think it’s meant to be a portal?” Impulse says. 
Portals are a thing of legend—looming structures of magically-changed stones, leading people to strange and fantastical places. Legends tell of bloody red rocks and rivers of lava, endless voids guarded by a furious dragon, alternate realities, or even the gleaming gold realm of the gods. 
As far as Martyn knows, though, creating a true portal is impossible. Magic doesn’t work that way—it acts on the individual, and it doesn’t linger long enough to create a stable portal. Even if it could, a person would either have to stay and hold it open indefinitely, or be stranded as soon as they stepped through the gateway. 
“What made you think you saw a portal? It wasn’t, I dunno, all glowy, was it? You didn’t end up teleporting somewhere?” Martyn asks. Impulse shakes his head. 
“Gods, no. No activity, no glowy-ness. It was the shape of the stone, mostly,” he says, “Sort of like the fake ones you see in temples sometimes. There’s one in the temple the next town over, actually—it’s sort of like a big doorframe.”
hey wonder what all this means. thats crazy. wonder what martyrs up to
