Hey everyone! The holiday season has just begun, so to celebrate, I'm having a shop-wide sale for 20% with code HOLIDAY20

So the fantasy au ficlet is a drabble thingy of my larger general fantasy au centered around Bryan/Nigel that I also brainstormed with @shes-a-voodoo-child. The lore doc for it is uh, a lot, but the jist is: Bryan is an ancient dragon who helps guard a nearby human kingdom in an agreement. The king wants a mage to serve as his liaison with the dragon, also acting as it's keeper/tamer. To make a name for himself, Nigel takes on the challenge. It's a clash of personalities, there's battles between them, but they grow a mutual respect over time. So when Nigel is presented with the opportunity of slaying a weak and injured Bryan for glory, he doesn't think twice before saving the dragon's life by linking their mana forces together in an unbreakable ritual.

I still need to do more complete refs of their designs but here's some art: x x

The drabble itself is a peak during the period where they're adjusting to the fresh mana bond, and the complications that come with it. Complications such as: telepathy between the two parties.

It's purely a porn with no plot concept of bryan and nigel's wxw match in which a shitheel bryan won with a sneaky low blow and nigel's really pissed and wants revenge by putting dragon in his place 🙂‍↕️nothing too deep or complex. I guess in a small way, it's also part of my exercise in getting in the head of bryan's smug prick side (there's a couple other wips I try to toy with it). My kneejerk reaction to him is with biased waifu glasses, and as much as I love indulging in it, I also get really self conscious about it lol. Bc I think the fact that he thrives being a jerk in his core despite so many ppl thinking he's a super babyface is one of my fav aspects of him that I don't express creatively too often.

There's not too much sfw excerpts I can share on this blog, and I think I already showed you this part that's safe, but I'll repost it again 🫡

Rules: Make a new post with the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Tag as many people as you have WIPs. People can send an ask with the title(s) that most intrigue them, then you post a snippet or tell them about it!

sorry anon, but I was feeling some type of way a few years ago--feeling very negative about the fandom, the things i saw and experienced, the quality of the books/canon works, etc. Hated everything. I wanted to erase basically everything I did and distance myself as much as possible. My oc work survived tho, for personal attachment and also bc I made them with a good friend.
