Here’s my open wound, all bloodied and bruised. Can I say something true? I am scared of you.

It’s an honor and a privilege to work with @theearlgreymage and @artsyunderstudy on our COBB project Eirlys.
I present to you the first song from the slowly releasing Eirlys EP:
I’ve traveled many miles from the east // with my smile the mark of the beast // full devotion I’m a wicked priest // crossing every line I ever conceived like it’s the air I breathe
here’s my open wound // all bloodied and bruised // can I say something true? // I am scared of you
the byproduct of bad prophecy // are four horsemen and they were all me // full destruction crushed by my own debris // grant some mercy the year of jubilee on this broken body
here’s my open wound // all bloodied and bruised // can I say something true? // I am scared of you // down in flames we’ve burnt // ashes in the dirt // let the soil rebirth // new heaven and earth
wanna plant a tree? // watch it grow with me // wanna plant a tree? (x2)
here’s my open wound // all bloodied and bruised // can I say something true? // I am scared of you // down in flames we’ve burnt // ashes in the dirt // let the soil rebirth // new heaven and earth

Aster & Narcissus
Chapter Two of the Lore Olympus AU is up!
Click here to see Aster and Narcissus: the new chapter now live on AO3. Link
This is a collaboration for @carry-on-big-bang where @theearlgreymage has written the story and I made art.
Tumblr media
In Chapter Two, Hades leaves the Underworld for the sunshine of the Mortal Realm. I loved how in Lore Olympus there was such a visual difference between the two places and I tried to capture that—and also the peace that Simon finds there.

Aaaaand, the secret is out! Allow me to introduce to you, a collaboration with the brilliant @moments-au-crayon22, for the @carry-on-big-bang 2023!
Threads of Fate
Aristocratic_Otter, sour_cherry_22
Summary:
Summary: We’ve all read of how soulmates can find each other; the red string of fate, the wrist timer, finally seeing colour, the shared song…but what about the first person to find their soulmate? The creator of that original soulmate spell? Simon Snow is having zero luck developing an 8th year spell. So he’s elated when he casts “Threads of Fate,” and something actually happens. But when the spell creates a thread that leads him right to his nemesis, he’s not so sure what he’s created is actually a good thing. When trying again results in everyone in the World of Mage having a string that ties them to someone else, he wonders: did his spell tie him and Baz together because they are fated to fight to the death? Or could there be another reason?

Salisbury blinks. Feeling my hand on his cheek, he flicks his eyes over to find me, gaze searching.
I hold still, unable to break the moment.
He looks extra golden, as though glowing with some kind of inner light.
A small smile plays about his mouth, a fondness coming into his eyes.
It’s too tender, too intimate for what we are to each other—or, what we should be.
Delighted to announce my COBB 2023 collab with @palimpsessed!! Check out the delicious there-was-only-one-bed Normal AU on AO3 here.

Good Old-fashioned Lover Boy: A Snowbaz Au
I wrote this for the @carry-on-big-bang 2023, and I was paired with the wonderful @artsyunderstudy who made an amazing piece of art to pair with my fic!!! 
Title: Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy Status:   Teens+,  5k,  1/? chapters Tags:  Canon divergent, watford era, final 8th year, fake dating, pining, angst, fluff, falling in love
Summary:   With his final year starting off with the Mage trying to send him away and attempting to potentially kill his roommate, Simon Snow comes up with the best plan he can. Fake dating his roommate.
Except:   
“…I’m sorry, can you repeat that?” I ask.  
“Don’t make me say that again.” He mumbles, looking down at his eyes, avoiding eye contact at all costs. 
But I need confirmation. I need to know what he actually said. “No, I need you to repeat it. You see, I must have had a momentary blimp in my sanity because I thought you said that you thought we should date.” I force out a dead, humourless chuckle. 
“Fake dating.” He corrects.

Thanks @hushed-chorus & @martsonmars for the tags ❤️ (and @forabeatofadrum for the six-months late tag 🤣).
I’m hyperfixated on my COBB right now… obligatory joke below:
Shit, when did Agatha get here?
And more serious snippet below (although not much more serious):
I blink and Tyra’s back on stage, flexing her biceps, pink lips kissing them while she confesses, “I know I’ve got a big ego,” she winks and it lands with a punch to my solar plexus, “I really don’t know why it’s such a big deal, though.”
I manage to peel myself off the floor and crawl back to the safety of Gareth’s booth. He’s laughing at my pain, the bastard, while Tyra feigns ennui to the tune of, “chore, chore, chore.”
With a sigh, I slump over the edge of the booth and rest my chin in my hands. (“I want more, more, more.”)

It's hockey art time!
I had the honor to be the artist for the amazing fic Sugar, we're going down swingin' by the wonderful @prettygoododds written for the @carry-on-big-bang!
I had a blast reading her work, doodling octopi and looking up hockey gear :) so I'm planning to keep on drawing for the following chapters!
Thanks to the mods for organizing the event, it was my first time participating and it went swimmingly (skatingly?)!
Illustrations for Chapter 1

A collaboration for the @carry-on-big-bang 2023.
Author: @palimpsessed
Artist: @knitbelove
Rating: Explicit
Tags:
There Was Only One Bed, Strangers to Lovers, Meet Cute, Bed Sharing, Smut, Normal AU, Simon is a Salisbury Because I Said So
Summary:
Basilton Pitch and Simon Salisbury are brand new co-workers attending a professional conference together. They are also sharing a room, for reasons. And a bed, also for reasons. But it's a professional conference, and they're both professionals.
Obviously they can ignore the instant attraction that sparks between them.
Obviously nothing untoward is going to occur.
Obviously.

WIP Wednesday!
thanks for the tag @forabeatofadrum !! i!! have!! been!! writing!!!!! so i finally feel like i have something to share this week. once again from my cobb fic, which i am just so so excited to share with you all.
I babble on into silence, as Baz neither stops me nor interrupts me. He doesn’t say anything for a long time, and I trace back through my speech, wondering what it is I said this time to fuck things up. He lets out a long breath, before finally asking, in a tight voice, “Why are you doing this, Snow?” “Doing what?” I cock my head at him, trying to read his unreadable expression. “Doing this.” He waves his hand about in a way that tells me absolutely nothing, but I expect is supposed to tell me a whole lot. “Trying to be all—friendly with me.” It’s my turn to stare at him for a moment, wondering if he’s actually being serious.
a happy birthday simon snow!! i’m going to make scones for him later--happy solstice to everyone!
