Current WIPs
Title links go to any intro posts, and tag links go to the tag pages.
Songs of Decay - Eldritch-inspired suspense radio drama. Tom moves to a small town with his daughter to reconnect with his dad, a retired bodyguard, and find a better life. Unfortunately, the county is afflicted with the eldritch and the local Eldritch Anomalies Department (EAD) is drowning in work. With a skill set (and too much experience) in the eldritch, Tom tries to help and finds himself dealing with an eldritch moose, a murder, occult summonings, and Esther, a local widow determined to solve things on her own. #songs of decay
A Small Lantern Still Gives Light - Xianxia inspired and based. Zhang Huai Shi is one of the last remaining cultivators of a sect destroyed by the new emperor when he came to power over a decade ago. Bai Xue Ying is a half demon hiding his heritage, wandering the cultivation world with Zhang Huai Shi. Their fate and the fate of their whole country begins to shift when they stumble upon a cell containing a long-thought-dead prisoner of war, who also has connections to the Zhang family. Genre-typical deluge of characters, politics, and drama. Family is important. #small lantern
Bards, Courts, and Changelings - Late 1940s, post WWII. Irish mythology is real and causes problems on the regular. Bards act as mortal go between for the fair folk and normal humans, dealing in debts and favors. A Scottish researcher, Irish bard, and English wardens all converge on a changeling case. However, a selkie gets swept into the fray, and an American woman trying to get back home needs help to escape a dangerous fae. There will be a wedding. #bc&c
Living Memory - Modern Greek mythology slice-of-life exploring topics of grief, coming of age, and family. When Blythe's husband Adanil dies and leaves her with a grieving family of five, she decides to pull an Orpheus and sets out after him to the Underworld with a YouTube musician in tow. In the ensuing chaos, the family has to learn how to deal with unlikely success, Fate, and living with the introvert daughter of Hades and Persephone. #living memory
Outcasts - High fantasy where magic is technically illegal in many countries, and an underground resistance has formed that spans the whole continent. Many characters, many perspectives, all trying to make life better as they want to see it. We have several manuscripts that need editing, but the future is becoming clearer. #outcasts
We’ve also got a lot of AUs and random ramblings that we may share for fun~ To get to know us, here’s our writeblr intro.

Sewings pads on 3 paws represents 2 full days of work. But these are looking awesome now! Foxfire must have ginormous fingers/ring finger as both me and my husbands fingers ended at around the knuckle joints in these paws, so I’m going to make a simple full liner from sports fabric to slip inside & pop in some light stuffing in the fingertips to give a little bit more body where it might collapse on people with shorter fingers.

ask game: Foxfire?
He didn’t realize immediately when the rain stopped falling on him, the discomfort not intense enough for him to be aware of its absence. But he did eventually notice that no drop of cold water was touching him and when he raised his lack of face, he saw a kitsune wearing red and white and holding an umbrella over the both of them.
“How stupid of you,” the kitsune said, sounding almost bored as he looked outside of the forest, where the human settlement was. “Humans can never be trusted. They destroy anything they touch and only fools seek them out.”
The sixth leaned back, alarm overwhelming him.
Foxes were dangerous.
They were crafty, devious, tricked people with beautiful words, and when it didn’t work, they made use of their sharp teeth.
“But I suppose that yokai aren’t kind with those they don’t consider their own, aren’t they?” the kitsune smiled, but instead of savage or cold, this expression was bitter, as if he was remembering something.
This sadness was the only reason why the sixth didn’t try running.

My sketch of the human city in my book. I'm terrible at drawing but I had this idea of a cog shaped city for my steampunk style area, and I had to attempt. Actually kind of proud.

Do you know some fanfics where Tom and Harry raise a child together? I don't know if there are any like that but l like the idea and I like to think what their dynamic with the child would be.
Thanks for the ask, anon! I can definitely think of some great fics with Harry and Tom taking on a co-parenting role together, ranging across various scenarios from adoption to biological children (both separate and together) to horcrux children.
*
Tomarrymort Recs – Co-Parenting
aquila by @treacleteacups (T, 4k, complete)
In which Harry takes in Voldemort’s kid after the war. (Summary: “No,” Harry answers sharply. “No orphanages, no distant relatives. She’ll be moving in with me.”)
Changelings by @treacleteacups (T, 2k, complete)
In which Harry and Tom’s 2 children travel back in time to meet Tom while he’s a student at Hogwarts. (Summary: Two random children won't stop calling Tom 'dad', and it's actually driving him insane.)
Custodarium by Tina48 (E, 73k, complete)
In which Harry and Tom open an orphanage together for magical children. (Summary: Harry ends up back in 1943, and shows Tom a different path for his future.)
Either must die at the hand of the other by @metalomagnetic (E, 260k, complete)
In which Harry and Voldemort co-parent Delphini. (Summary: Voldemort survives the Battle of Hogwarts and is initially kept prisoner in Azkaban, until Harry takes him into Grimmauld Place under house arrest.)
Growth Left by authoresswithoutwords (T, 19k, complete)
In which Harry and Tom are godparents to one of the children of Harry’s classmates. (Summary: Puck, Harry's godson, as he's growing up and becoming an adult.)
How Many Snakes Do We Need to Turn a House into a Home? (part 1) / Foxfire's Light (part 2) by @vestiges-of-light (T, 182k, WIP)
In which Harry and Voldemort settle down and raise a family of five children who are all Parselmouths. (Summary: With the last peace treaty sworn in their marriage vows, the world is quieter now. Voldemort serves in the Wizengamot and Harry in the Muggle Liaison Office. Harrymort domesticity, fluff, and kidfic oneshots.) Note: These 2 fics are sequels to a longer fic called Cicatrization, but the author explains that it's not required to first read Cicatrization to understand these 2 fics. A full explanation of where we are at in the series is provided in the Endnotes of Chapter 1. I don’t think it’s necessary to have read the earlier fic either; if kidfic is what you’re looking for, I highly recommend you to give this a try!
like angels put in hell by god (part 1) by @duplicitywrites (M, 1k, complete)
In which Harry and Tom co-parent Tom’s horcrux children. (Summary: This little boy, barely five years old and Tom Riddle in miniature, boasted beautiful emerald eyes. “A piece of you,” Tom said lightly, kissing Harry’s cheek in greeting, “and a piece of me.”) Note: Part 2 (by @crowcrowcrowthing) | Part 3 (by @cindle-writes), featuring more horcrux children.
The Closing Of The Year by kcstories (T, 5k, complete)
In which Harry and Tom co-parent Albus Severus Potter. (Summary: After his divorce, Harry moves in with Tom Riddle. So does his ten-year-old son Albus Severus, who tries his utmost to get used to his new surroundings and to the strange, sinister man his dad has fallen in love with.)

Thanks to @numinousmysteries for tagging me! I had never checked these stats before!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
92
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
484,620
3. What fandoms do you write for?
I’ve written for Hannibal, Battlestar Galactica, The Fall, and The X-Files, but only The X-Files at this point.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
The Parting Glass (smut)
Animus Possidendi (dark smut)
The Common Fate of All Things Rare (casefile, cowritten)
Lacuna (casefile)
This Her Fever (cancer arc)
5. Do you respond to comments?
Yes and no. Not like I should. I am so deeply, truly grateful for every single one.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Well, I killed William in Inhaling the Different Dawn, but that wasn’t at the end.
Maybe Where The Vines Cling Crimson? Scully’s cancer comes back and her fate is ambiguous. And I had Scully kill Emily in Alabaster Stones. But I think that was the right ending for both of them.
As a mother? A Basket of Reeds, where Scully gives William away. I can’t even reread it without a lump in my throat, man.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Tent of Shelter is fluffy and lovely gets a lot of love, and was inspired by a STUNNING manip by @avocadoave but I personally think In The Gale. It’s the one that, to me, feels the most like a grownup relationship of two people processing some trauma. I think that’s an ending that’s happy and also real - like “I don’t love being broken, but I can survive being broken with you.” Two abeyances that lean…
Foxfire for similar reasons. I real love that little story, which I wrote thanks to @perplexistan
I’m 43. I’ve been married for well over two decades and let me tell you that young love is a gift and mature love is a craft.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Some! And that’s really great too, that people read words I wrote and felt so passionately that they left me words about those feelings. What a strange but profound compliment!
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I do. PWP isn’t my personal taste so even though I wrote a LOT of smut for the old pornbattles at LJ I wanted the smut to still tell a story.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
I can’t say it’s especially crazy, but Fern Hill is a Mulder/Stella Gibson crossover. There are a few little ficlets with XF/Silence of the Lambs crossovers in my Inbox Prompts series.
Oh fuck! Wait! I wrote a Fall/Hannibal/XF crossover called Anthemoessa where Stella, Scully, and Bedelia all meet. Okay that’s it. That wins.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Years ago. God, isn’t that sad? To need positive reinforcement that much?
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Yes! It was SUCH a compliment!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I have - The Common Fate of All Things Rare
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
Mr. Virgata and me. Followed by Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, who literally invented the word. ❤️
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
The Fisher King
16. What are your writing strengths?
I think I do pretty good banter and my education makes me pretty good at the sciencey bits.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
I get too lost in descriptions and I try too hard to be clever. I do my best to self edit but sometimes I reread things and I’m like oh my GOD SHUT YOUR PRETENTIOUS ASS UP.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I’ve done it for Bedelia and Hannibal in Italian. I’m not sure I understand the question?
19. First fandom you wrote for?
TXF, my one true love.
20. Favorite fic you’ve written?
I don’t know that I have a favorite per se. I am most proud of the ones that challenged me to do something outside my comfort zone. Samson is one of mytop fives even though it’s Mulder/Diana. I think I did a nice job. I also wrote Pair of Aces/Double or Nothing which is Scully/Byers.
But I do really love the world of Petrichor and Singing of Mount Abora, and I like the cases.

Writing blurb under the cut
The subtle firelight in the cavern was the only illumination of the figure who laid within, a young hybrid mostly within the shadows though the orange light still glimmered off of parts of his iridescent scales. Purpled was lost in his own thoughts as he stared at the six pointed star pin in his talons, watching the gold and single ruby glimmer with a hint of malice to his overall dull expression. This single little treasure and what it represented, the one who made it, had ruined everything for him. One would think that burning the seawing's little companion alive would've been enough to call it even, but it simply wasn't. No, no, Purpled wanted to make sure that the gods forsaken city fucking burned, and apparently he wasn't the only one who had a score to settle. His tail curled in as his grip on the little trinket tightened for a moment, antenna curling inwards before abruptly twitching at the distant sound of footsteps on stone. His eyes finally flicked away from the pin as he sat up, placing the small trinket in a nook which it barely fit in before he looked towards one of several entrance tunnels. The stark white and grey scales of his fellow mercenary were the first sight, the icewing walking in with a subtle rattling of his spines as his body shifted with every step. Following him though was a dragon who Purpled never really knew, sure he knew of Dream but they were never personally acquainted and he certainly didn't remember the dragon in question looking like this. Scales with shifting greens mottled with black and white, an all around snake like figure but even more so than any rainwing he'd seen, spines and scales that also clashed in shape and size along with twisted horns and a ragged frill that framed the end of a notably triangular head with a slightly crooked snout and two eyes that glinted florescent green like foxfire in the dark- two eyes that felt as if they belonged to anything but a dragon. Though Purpled pulled his gaze away to avoid staring for much longer at the rather unsettling form of Dream, merely gathering himself as he looked at the two.
The silence was broken a short moment after as the duo moved towards the fire.
"We have our plan, it'll be a few days till we can make our move, but we have it" Punz's tone was flat, as it often was when he spoke. The icewing settling down furthest from the fire as Dream followed suit, the amalgamation you could barely call any hybrid in particular laying down closest to the still burning fire and curling up slightly.
"Then why the fuck aren't you telling me? And I said before, I want at least half payment up front-" The younger dragon hissed, spines raising slightly as his antenna curled up.
"You'll get it, that and more if this goes according to plan" Dream's voice caught Purpled off guard slightly, it didn't quite match his face to say the least. Those seemingly unemotional eyes flicking over to stare at the young hybrid as he grinned.
"Trust me, this will be more than worth your while"

"Did you notice the moose on the town sign?" "The normal moose with two eyes and four legs?" "Not my decision; artistic liberties were taken."
The Malbury County Moose is an eldritch Fiend that has its own Moose Zone. Do not enter the Moose Zone when you hear the town sound the alarm in the Moose Zone cadence. If the Moose is left undisturbed, it will stick to its usual route.
There is no danger of mistaking the Moose for an ordinary moose. Apart from the difference in the number of eyes and appendages, ordinary moose aren't native to Malbury County.
Just like the smack of eldritch jellyfish in Malbury Lake.
From our eldritch audio drama WIP, Songs of Decay. Image description in alt text. Tag list under cut.

If you see this, consider yourself tagged. I have several dozen WIPs (several several dozen if I count the older Genshin ones) so I’m definitely not tagging that many people and also not posting ALL. xD
These are all my October Daye WIPs. Maybe.

Ask game :Foxfire 5
The sixth was hidden in the forest, kneeling so it would be hard to see him, and counting on the rain to drive out his pursuers and their sharp rocks. His chest was sharply rising and lowering with each sob escaping him but he wasn’t crying. He couldn’t, even if he had been well enough to concentrate and to shape real features where his face was supposed to be. He had been watching humans for so long, doing his best to mimic them, but tears were still too difficult for him.
This inability to replicate what humans had on the inside was what had drawn the ire of his playmates. When he had scraped his knee, no blood had come out, marking him as others.
“Monster!” the children had screamed. “Monster!”
The sixth had been scared that they would call their parents, big and strong, but he had underestimated. Like a pack, the children has chased him, stones in hand, screaming insults and fiercely driving him away.

Two beings sat side by side, staring up at the stars. One wore the years on her face, deep canyons carving her life out for all to see. The other, older than her by countless centuries, looked to be no older than thirty, but his eyes revealed an existence supporting the weight of not just one world, but many. His quiet voice echoed through the trees, all other sounds ceasing.
"It's almost time old friend."
