My second fantasy anthology is coming out next week!
You can snag a copy from Amazon today if you want. There are 22 stories in this collection, most are fantasy but there are a few other genres (I'm really fond of the SF horror one about humans adopting an alien species). Some of the stories you might have already seen around Tumblr (like Siren Screech) but jazzed up a bit, others are brand new!
Give her a few months, and you'll find her in library systems too.

Ship: Cady/Regina Words: ~3400 Rating: T Summary:
"Tonight they're at a party on a rooftop hosted by one of Regina’s colleagues, the summer air the perfect temperature for Regina to finally have an excuse to slip that dress off its hanger where it's been patiently waiting all spring. It molds itself to her skin, her hips, her breasts, and when Regina crosses the threshold of the stairwell and onto the roof, it seems every person in the vicinity stands at attention." 10 or so years after canon, Cady and Regina attend a party. fic title taken from taylor swift's sweet nothing.

I've never put my writing to the works, so here's an (generously long) excerpt of an Albedo (ben 10) x reader I'm writing!!
Albedo x GN! reader: For The Day It Might Not Work Out
CH 1- some ends can never meet
Loud tapping echoed through the walls of the small, yet oddly resonating room. Well, it's not exactly a room, just a three-walled area made of metal. Nonetheless, it calmed the boy sitting on its grounds. Albedo, the criminal crowned the second most dangerous threat to the galaxy,(to earth's views anyways) is now roaming freely in the streets of Bellwood. Even Albedo himself couldn’t manage to grasp the fact. When the news came out that he was free from prison, he swore he was the only one whose heart fell so deep into the pit of his stomach, to the point of falling dizzy.
The same can't be said about everyone that was in the room in which the decision was made. The most they were, were disappointed. Unlike Albedo whose mind was in a state of panic.
A little dramatic and unreasonable most would think, but Albedo had his reasons to be in such disbelief at Good News. To begin, his presence in a large box of metal asked a question that explained more about how he felt about being on earth than any way he was to put it: what was he doing here? He had no idea. All he knew was that as soon as he was given the opportunity of leaving the awfully green chambers of the Plumbers' headquarters, he ran as fast as he could, as far away as possible from Tennyson and his troop.
Half of him knew he made such an impulsive move out of earnest for freedom. The other half...? He couldn't tell if it was from embarrassment or straight-up spite, but either way, it cost him an abundance of crossroads, the consequence of not understanding traffic lights, getting lost, and an empty stomach. And now, he's here, in a street from a part of Bellwood he's never seen before. But, it's not like he ever memorized any certain places from Bellwood, to begin with; he simply came across an area and proceeded to never see it again...except for the burger shack. He was lucky there were so many branches for it, but all for naught. This street is eerily empty, barren of stores, greenery, or lights, even... 
The white-haired menace sighed heavily as he stood up from the dusty ground. Was this revenge? he thought, Did the universe finally get its chance to reign all its pent-up displeasure onto me by forcing me to be aware of reality? Although it's inevitable anyways, the white-haired boy wasn't any bit ready to come out of his shell yet. He wished he still had more time in that mind-isolating bubble of his–alone. [...]

NEW BOOK - Tales of Wulfgard, Volume I
Newly revised for 2023, Tales of Wulfgard: Volume I is a collection of short stories. All have been edited, revised, and expanded, and one of my stories - “Hunted” - has been completely rewritten and greatly expanded to better accompany another of my Wulfgard story collections, The Hunt Never Ends.
For werewolf fans, this book includes two stories focusing on a werewolf/werewolves/lycanthropy and my own fictional takes thereon! Be sure to check it out!
Tumblr media
Tales of Wulfgard, Volume 1 is a collection of stories by brother and sister Justin R. R. Stebbins and Maegan A. Stebbins, set in the dark fantasy world of Wulfgard! There are 5 tales, each exploring the background of a particular important character of Wulfgard.
Available for purchase here on Amazon in both ebook and paperback!
Details on each story below:
"Speak No Evil" - Whisper's Tale - by Justin -- Whisper has never lived anywhere except the City - never even been beyond its walls. She knows it like the back of her hand, knows the long faces of its dark buildings like the faces of old friends - almost her only friends. But there is a new gang in town: a shadowy cult kidnapping young street urchins for an unknown purpose. And Whisper becomes one of their victims.
"A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" - Chris's Tale - by Maegan -- On a lonely farm on the far northern frontier of the Achaean Empire, a young boy is born with stark white hair - a sure sign of witchcraft and sorcery. His loving parents protect him and keep him hidden from the sight of other people, who would surely see him killed for his dangerous abilities. But the fearful locals are not the only thing the family has to worry about: something lurks in the shadows of the forest near their home. Something with a taste for blood...
"Potential Energy" - Lord Plutarch's Tale - by Justin -- The House of Plutarchus is one of the oldest and most powerful families in all of the Achaean Empire. But its youngest son, Septimus Plutarch, wishes to make his own way in the world. With great care, he begins planning a life of power and prestige, and more importantly, independence. But one day he makes a discovery about himself that brings all his plans crumbling down... and opens up a new, far more dangerous path to even greater power.
"Hunted" - Caiden's Tale - by Maegan -- Since before recorded history, the ancient organization known as the Venatori have protected the people of the Achaean Empire from the threat of creatures far more powerful than any man: monsters. Even Caiden and Gwen - both highly trained hunters - find themselves outmatched when confronted with one of the deadliest beasts in the mortal realms: a werewolf. It will take all their experience and cunning to survive.
"Wake Not the Sleeping Bull" - Jörgen's Tale - by Justin -- Jörgen the Lone Bull is a proud son of Northrim, despite being an orphan. He wants nothing more than to protect his home from conquest by the ever-expanding Achaean Empire. After fighting skirmishes against them for years as an outlaw, he finally joins a Northern army willing to take the fight to the Imperials directly. But Jörgen finds that real war is not quite as glorious as he had hoped, and he may never be able to go home the same man he was before.

Author: Aerinn Gwen (fourfeetelvn)
Acquainted (11KB - One Shot - G) "Malfoy," Hermione greeted. "Granger. To what do I owe this pleasure?" "I think I did something," "Get to the point, Granger. I don't have all day to entertain you," he said as he finally looked up from his newspaper.
An Orchid's Child (13KB - One Shot - G) Hermione started talking. "Ginny, you didn't need to cut your hol–" "Mummy?" She froze. Her eyes were still glued to the television but she wasn't watching anymore. "Happy Mother's Day, Mummy," said a child's voice.
Daylight Through Darkness (267KB - 26 Chapters - R) The past has a cruel way of catching up with the present, and Draco and Hermione find themselves thrown head first, smack in the middle of it. Everything they thought they knew was going to change, and in a world they don't belong in, they can only depend on each other.
Randy Man's Playbook (137KB - 25 Chapters - R) A very unique book finds its way to the hands of Draco Malfoy - A book that, if utilized well, could help him fulfill his fantasies.

I have an author event coming up this fall, and I'd love to sell some bookmarks! I have very bad art skills, however, so they're very simple and I would welcome any feedback before I send them to the printer.
Most of them are queer (duh) but as the event is in Chicago, I made one for the straights.

Someone tell me what juice they put into anyone who touches a spiderman film in recent memory that they know how to do multiverse films so goddamn well
Edit: I went places while writing funnies in the notes and now I am a changed person. Y’all were right. There is only before Across the Spiderverse and after Across the Spiderverse. HOLY SHIT BEYOND THE SPIDERVERSE. This post is a mess. I have not facially emoted at all but my mind is doing the everything everywhere thing.

Mihri’s Mech OVA (Part 1)
AKA “I didn’t like Sorrows of Werlyt so I’m rewriting it entirely and cutting Gaius, and also making up my own extensive XIV mech lore.”
“I’m turning on the KLEOS now, Cid.”
“Roger that, Mihri. Reading the KLEOS as active.”
She closed her eyes and breathed deeply and evenly. All around her, the cockpit was lit up with holographic screens reporting on every aspect of her surroundings, but none of that mattered right now. The hairpin-like device on her forehead was warm, and she could feel it guiding her toward the familiar mental state of the Echo.
Hear… Feel… That wasn’t it. She needed to go deeper. The machine around her was thrumming above her, below her, around her, like a living being. Focus on its soul, Cid had said, and your own will follow. She let herself sink into it.
The thrumming was inside her, now, and she opened her eyes, raised her hand, and saw the metal fingers flex as she moved them. She turned her head to the side and looked towards the catwalk at eye level. Cid and the other Ironworks technicians were so small compared to her now. “I’ve got it,” she said.
Cid held his hand up to his linkpearl. Of course, she realized, her voice still wasn’t coming out of this new face. “I’d gathered! All readings are green, Mihri, the KLEOS is stable and the Valiance is responding to you perfectly.”
Mihri Ninaka hadn’t really expected to spend her return trip to the Source piloting a giant robot the size of a five-story building, but Cid had told her there was a new Garlean warmachina approaching the Eorzean front, and this Ruby Weapon appeared indestructible by any conventional means. A young conscript engineer had apparently fled to Ala Mhigo with data on the Resonant-based control system the machina was using, and Cid and the rest of the Ironworks had been able to adapt it to their own machine, but the Alliance didn’t exactly have a surplus of Echo-users to pilot it.
How strange it was, she thought, as the final checks were run on the Valiance’s systems, to think that her real body was a tiny figure nestled in the heart of the one she now perceived as her own. Her true hands were moving on the machine’s control sticks, directing it to move as she willed it, but she would not feel them again until she shut down the KLEOS—or if something went wrong and it was shut down for her. Cid had wanted to test the device more thoroughly before sending her into battle, worried about the repercussions if she was kicked from the system abruptly, but there was simply no time. The Garlean defector, Avilina, had merely remarked somberly that the system had already been tested in blood before she’d gotten away to the Alliance.
“Everything looks good, Mihri, we’re ready to fly you to the Ghimlyt Dark. Do you want to disconnect from the KLEOS, or stay linked?”
She resisted the urge to hold her machine-hand up to a linkpearl that wasn’t there. “I’m going to stay connected. There’s no time for a test run, but at least I can spend as much time getting used to this body as possible.”
“Right,” said Cid, “I’m going to have you walk out of the hangar so the Enterprise can pick you up, then.” She watched him wave his tiny arms at the gaggle of technicians still standing around. “All right everyone, move to your assigned safe zones! We’re launching in 10.” Someone had flicked a switch, and yellow caution lights began flashing throughout the hangar. Figures began to scatter, looking like dolls from this height. It would be terrifyingly easy to crush them accidentally, so Mihri stayed very very still.
The lights changed to red, and stopped flashing, then turned green. Cid turned to face Mihri—face the Valiance, she supposed, though right now the distinction didn’t really matter. “All right, we’re ready for you to go. Everyone’s clear.”
She nodded. “Understood. IX-9 Valiance, launching now.” The hangar doors began to slide open and Mihri stepped forward. She’d worried that she wouldn’t be able to balance, seeing as how the Valiance had no tail, but this body felt as natural as her own. If experiencing an Echo vision didn’t cause her to feel she was in an alien form, then there was no reason this should either.

❆ ɢᴡᴇɴ ʀᴀᴍʙʟᴇꜱ #3 ❆
Tumblr media
❆ this is a development that i SORT OF touched on a while back. But imma ramble about it again.
over time, and as the get older/become exposed to more of their history and lineage— Gwen’s body is taking on both Founder and God-Like characteristics. ONE OF WHICH: A need for blood.
So the idea of Gwen waking up with excruciating tooth pain, and not really getting it? a parched throat, throat’s fucking burning. and they’re just. soso confused.
come to find out they’re changing 🤨 damn. really a ‘damn how do y’all live like this’ moment. but also it would take SO LONG for them to actually drink from someone. probably take until they’re literally dying until they have a drink, bc they hate the taste of blood.
just. a demon, who needs blood to live, absolutely despising the taste of blood. and refusing to drink until somebody fucking forces them to? damn :/
i can’t even imagine them befriending someone from one of the demon clans, and needed ASSISTANCE. ADVICE. god. really just a “what am i supposed to do rn i hate this pls help my teeth hurt :(.” only then to go “no thank you i’ll just hurt.”
