eating my words (I wrote a fic)

True to form, within two days of taking a retrospective on my year's writing and saying I probably wouldn't finish anything else this year, I wrote a oneshot. From start to finish. In one sitting, excluding the notes I took on my phone at work.

Sometimes writing just possesses you!

most pitiable of creatures
Homestuck, Beforus!Feferi Peixes/Roxy Lalonde. 1.3k words.

Feferi fell in pity as soon as she saw those eyes. The hue of royalty, beautiful Tyrian pink, on a creature whose natural weakness would never allow her to rise to that station? It was an awful cruelty, and utterly irresistible.
 
Written for a prompt about non-consensual hair-stroking, which probably tells you everything you need to know about the tone of the fic, and also my love for characters being unwillingly taken care of.

(And yes, I know I said in my retrospective that I'm not really in Homestuck fandom anymore. I'm as surprised as you are! Every day is brand new. ☀️)

a fic and five icons

nothing gold can stay

"Unearthed from a pile of papers a decade old, you find Meng Yao, half-sketched in black ink, staring up at you."

An angsty Nie Huaisang/Jin Guangyao character study, set after Nie Mingjue’s death, through the lens of two portraits never finished.

2.9k words on AO3.

icons of Wang Lingjiao

I posted five icons of Wang Lingjiao on [community profile] smallbatchicons a week or so ago, but here they are here as well!

a brief writing retrospective for 2022

I was planning to use the same questions I answered last year (courtesy of [personal profile] anysin, who I forgot to credit then, though I don't know the original provenance), but given how little I've written this year, I thought I'd just do a short retrospective on my own initiative instead.
