one more for the road
last line tag! or at least, some lines that I wrote tonight, while it is still tonight for me.
a little wooden spoon from @prettylittlelyres
Cal feels the heaviness of long sorrow in Eira’s aura, something he understands all too well. He takes her hand without thinking, trying to offer comfort. He doesn’t want to say “I’m sorry.” It never feels like enough. But nothing is ever enough to erase such loss. So he just glides his thumb over the back of her hand, gently, and doesn’t say anything. After a minute of nothing, she holds his hand back, the grip tentative, but there.
“I’m strong in the Force, so I’m alive,” Eira whispers after a while. “But it took me some time to be grateful for it.”
the emotional hurt/comfort continues! if I continue along this trajectory things are about to get worse. so. we'll see.

find the word tag CCCLXXXXIII
that last one wasn't so bad! I'm going to try it again. *runs through the find the word tag room with a swiffer* okay now that I can breathe in here.
a tiny light-up moon from @my-cursed-prince
lie (ff: kivarin: v.2)
You feel it about an hour after you lie down.
It's ironic, you think, rolling to the side as your back aches, that the coolness of space is what makes you sick, rather than the harsh heat of a Retevya day.
whisper (ff: kivarin: v.2)
"I'm okay," you whisper, the sound barely audible.
Cal still turns your head to the side so he can inspect where your temple hit the ramp. "You're bleeding," he informs you.
run (ff: kivarin: v.2)
You love rain. You enjoy thunder. But hearing and seeing and feeling a rainstorm all at once brings out the most agonizing horror in you.
It's not a weakness you wish to show anyone. Cal witnesses it on your first supply run after you join up with him, one week in.
hide (ff: kivarin: v.2 - I've done a nice job of giving Kivarin a hard time, but I think it'll be even more fun when I do it to Cal)
"I know I don't have to hide from you, if it makes you feel better. I knew I'd get a fever, but it's just reactionary. I'm not actually sick. It'll last a couple of days and I'll probably have a very intense nightmare the second night, that's what usually happens if I don't heal, and then I'll be fine."
This information does not seem to placate Cal, who looks more concerned now.
oh, I've missed my beloved tag games. keep tagging me! I will...mostly add them to the hoard but I'll work through them gradually!

find the word tag CCCXXXXII
okay I'm going to be brave and try to do one of these guys for the first time in six months with my two new very rough, very unfinished star wars fics. because I can't bear to open any of my other docs at the moment.
*peers into the hoard* wow, this room is REALLY dusty. *removes a tag* it's uh, it's from @wildswrites thanks for the decorative lemons.
metal (ff: jedi: kivarin v.2) ((don't-it's- I have too many ideas, okay?))
Retevya holds so many memories, the bad ones overwriting the good until you can barely see them anymore. If you ever venture back to the house, drawn by desperate nostalgia, you wind up searching through the ruins for a stone or shard of glass or metal that holds laughter instead of fear.
dash
outer (ff: jedi: eira: v.1)
“But you survived.”
“Actually, we both did. But he left the empire and is trying to come back to the light. He’s somewhere in the Outer Rim. I hope I never see him again.”
pressure (ff: jedi: eira: v.1)
“Oh. Well, thanks for the jacket. I’ll uh, I’ll keep the pressure thing in mind.” Cal turns to go, gesturing for BD to follow.
“See you when you bring that back to me in pieces,” Eira calls after him, just a little too cheerily.
frown have a smile instead (ff: kivarin: v.2)
"I am very good at comfort," you say into the couch cushions. "I'll do good on my turn."
"Go to sleep," Cal says, and you can hear the smile in his voice.
you guys the hurt/comfort I keep bestowing upon Cal and the companions I'm dreaming up for him is just...mm! it's so crazy it's like it's tailored to my specific tastes.
I bestow a yard of rose gold silk upon @avrablake @talesofsorrowandofruin @emelkae @strangerays @did-i-do-this-write OR ANYBODY who wants a tag or a yard of rose gold silk

Poll for writers and artists
Whether you write fanfic or original works or paint/draw, be it fan art or original work or whatever else - I have to know, because I have a feeling this is going to be very decisive:
Please reblog for sample size!
#no but under the condition that they clarify what they were inspired by#like if someone writes a fic inspired by my (fic) then i would like them to tell me or tag me in their post or give a link on ao3#fanart is different. i don't NEED to be told. but i'd like to be!#fic is fic and it's very grey and i'd like to keep it that way#but as a courtesy. i'd like to be told#as i would tell someone else if they inspired me#you know?

i'm calling myself out
It's me, writer, I'm the wip you've been ignoring, speaking to you from inside your brain

come with me and write my lines, we'll uproot the plot and save some lives!
Doo-doo-da-doo, yeah
You need me, writer, your free will is an illusion!

i don't see how those things are mutually exclusive
i have too many thoughts to wait for asks actually.
Fira was originally an antagonist in a rp. the second i started writing her i went "oh no she's a baby" but her knife throwing skills survived each iteration since then, just because.

Hello lovely <3 Happy Storyteller Saturday!
What kind of associations do you want people to have with your writing?
emotional depth, dialogue that develops both character and world, shenanigans that are never just fun and no profit, and hurt, comfort, and catharsis.
I'm just gonna quote myself real quick.
"I want my you to sit intimately with my writing, but my choice, because you enjoy how it knows you, and holds you, and lets you go."
thanks for asking, Detective <3

writing prompts! character dynamics edition
Sunshine child and steady earth guardian. Instigator and support.
Two friends with a locked backstory and someone looking for the key.
Failing upwards and reluctant observer.
Two competing intelligences with argumentative mouths.
Disaster and disaster support cleanup crew.
Exposed raw nerves and can't help but poke at them.
Perfectionist and completionist.
Impulsive instincts and let's think about this.
I don't need friends and too late, you're mine now.
Caretaker and caretaker's caretaker
Lies, lies everywhere and knows that, knows it every time
Doesn't want to be bothered and botherer
Spite™️ and the power of friendship
Spite™️ and Spite™️ right back, who do you think invented Spite™️?
Doesn't have a clue what's going on and unfortunately has all the clues
I'm in this for me and uh huh, totally.
Doesn't care what you think and cares what you, specifically, think
I'm trying to save you and I'm trying to save you!
Ignoring the issue and won't stop pointing out the issue
Is just here for the vibes and is unable to vibe
I don't need your help and okay. I'm here if you want it, though
Raincloud and weary umbrella. Eeyore and Piglet, if you will.
Enthusiasm! and Tired.
I'm invincible! and no you're not, please stop doing this to me.
Mortal enemy and mortal enemy. They're best friends.
