someone once said that the saddest word in the whole english language was almost.  he was almost in love and she was almost good for him. he almost stopped and dropped everything, she almost waited. and they almost made it.

introduction (coming soon!!);

Hello, hello again! Here I am and back with part two of deadly poisons. It was suggested to me, that maybe I should incorporate images of the plants in my post, so incorporate images I shall. So let’s dive right in!

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any decisions or actions you decide to take regarding this information. This is all in good fun for writing. I am in no shape or form teaching anyone how to commit murder.

1. Henbane: is sometimes known as the “devil’s eyes,” due to the black colored stigma (center of the flower). This plant was used in witchcraft and black magic. It was said during these time periods that the flowers would look and smell like death. Do not confuse henbane with belladonna. All parts of the plant is considered highly toxic. Smelling the toxic leaves causes dizziness, stupor, insanity, dry mouth, dilated pupils, restlessness, hallucinations, delirium leading to a potential coma, and eventually death. The medicinal uses of this medicine include being used as a painkiller, anesthetic, treatment of Parkinson’s and rheumatic aches and pains.

Toxicity: 99

Medicinial Use: 80

Mortality Rate: 79

Temptation to Use: 13

2. Arum Maculatum: also known as the cuckoo pint, or ladies and swords, or Adders Tongue. It is found growing in the woodlands and hedgerows. It is one of the most toxic wild plants and is said to smell of rotten meat. If eaten is can cause irritation of the mouth and tongue, swelling of the throat, difficulty breathing, burning pain, and upset stomach, as well as intense convulsions and death. This plant has been used to treat diarrhea, sore throats, rheumatic pain, as well as removing freckles and blemishes.

Toxicity: 87

Medicinal Use: 70

Mortality Rate: 80

Temptation to Use: 1

3. Opium Poppy: scientifically known as papaver somniferum. These plants have brightly colored petals, but do not let that fool you. Opium is the second biggest killer. Being poisoned by opium can cause anyone to behave erratically, sudden lost of appetite and fall into a stupor or potentially even a coma. Eventually resulting in death. Talk about looks can kill! Yet, despite all this this plant is also the basis for many effective painkillers such as morphine and codeine.

Toxicity: 75

Medicinial Use: 87

Mortality Rate: 81

Temptation to Use: 91

4. Salvia Divinorum: it is also knowns as magic mint, Sally-D, Diviner’s Sage, Ska Maria Pastora, Seer’s Sage, Sheperdess’s Herb, Lady, Sally, Purple Sticky, and Incense Special. It is a very powerful and fast acting hallucinatory herb that has become very popular among teenagers. It can mimic the effects of LSD and ecstasy, though its effects only last about eight minutes. It is not safe to consume as it leaves the user mumbling, giggling, screaming, gasping, synthesia, and confused. The DEA find it harmful for anyone who would use it. It is often used in stead of marijuana. It can be used for digestive problems, sore throats, and colds.

Toxicity: 30

Medicinial Use: 47

Mortality Rate: 64

Temptation to Use: 51

5. Datura: also known as Jimson’s Weed. It is a wild plant that grows all across the U.S. It’s pure white color will try and lure you in, as well as its intoxicating scent. This plant however, is a powerful hallucinogen and can render you incapacitated, creating the appearance that you are awake. It is considered a nightshade. This plant is used to calm people to sleep, but if the proper doses aren’t used it can relax you to the point of death.

Toxicity: 53

Medicinal Use: 24

Mortality Rate: 38

Temptation to Use: 81

Here ya, go! Deadly Poisons including images! I think I might do a part three of this, but I have yet to decide on that. If you haven’t checked out part one yet, you should! Please reblog this if you find it very useful or tag me on instagram if you choose to share it there! My instagram is perpetualstories.

— INTRODUCTION

hi, everybody! i’m camille, she/her, a minor, and formerly @chuchoters-archive. i decided to move blogs because i felt my old one was a bit too cluttered for my liking. i’m an intj and a gryffindor primary/slytherin secondary. i’ve been writing since i was six and dabble in both poetry and fiction. 

— INTERESTS

some of my favorite novels are red white and royal blue, the gilded wolves, six of crows, autoboyography, gods of jade and shadow, mexican gothic, the song of achilles, a study in charlotte, and these violent delights. my favorite genres to write are poetry, romance, contemporary, and fantasy.

— PROJECTS

i don’t have exact details right now because i’m in the process of revamping a bunch of wips but i can say i’m working on a chapbook, a ya dark academia, and a ya high fantasy.

tagging a few mutuals from my old blog and my taglists:

hello hello! this is an introduction/reintroduction since before i was @/feathered-inkling, but i deleted that account for personal reasons

about me:

↪ i’m envy! chinese american, minor, queer, they/them

↪ my mbti is INFP-T, and i’m an aries sun, sagittarius moon, and scorpio rising

↪ i write primarily fantasy! slice of life, adventure, urban fantasy, steampunk. literally everything.  i write a lot chinese mythology inspired things as well. i will never escape second person. 

↪ some of my favorite tropes are: found family (i will die for these), enemies to lovers, and morally grey/anti-hero main characters. i despise love triangles. lots of lgbtq+ casts

↪ i like translation, watching c-dramas, poetry, as well as making playlists and graphics. sometimes i doodle things. (i have a comic idea but don’t count on it ever being worked on). genshin impact has my heart and soul right now. 

a non-exhaustive (not even close haha rip) list of my wips:

↪ urban fantasy mythology mixing pot ft. an impending apocalypse, found family, chosen one by action

↪ dragon wip. will elaborate more on this, but all you need to know for now is that there’s a goddess to be killed, soulmates, and lots of magic. steampunk.

↪ spirited away-esque story that’s in its bare bones planning stages right now. 

↪ chinese mythology wlw hades & persephone retelling. 

↪ super secret (not really) camp nano wip. very very vaguely a orpheus & eurydice retelling. lots of fengshenyanyi references, silkpunk post-apocalypse world. 

the fox and the sea — camp nano 2021

⇁ genre  dark fantasy ⇁ goal  20k — worldbuilding + characterization ⇁ themes & tropes  political intrigue - eat the rich - friendship - homesickness - finding strangers to call home - hubris - the looming threat of nature ⇁ warnings  suicidal ideation - gore - death - body horror - cannibalism - more to be added

Vos Oomen hails from the marshes down east, near the border, where the winters are cold and the summers sweltering. He was raised on the myths and legends of old, taught traditions thought long gone. He knows that what is holy isn’t mortal, and that it will never be. 

He’s sent away the week he turns of age. The marshlands are dying, he’s told. It’s people and nature becoming one, there is no future for him here, for a boy who belongs to the sea. So he goes, to the bustling cities, where life is said to be easy, without nature’s danger looming over vulnerable bodies and fragile hearts. 

There is battle brewing. People are growing sick of bending beneath the heavy yoke of the elite. Sick of living poorly, in filthy houses, bordering filthy streets. Unsure where he stands, Vos would rather return to the humid marshlands, where the only things hungering for mortal blood are the leeches and mosquitoes.

But with the sea so close, with Vos nearly in her grasp, she won’t let go, pulls him closer. Until there’s nothing left of the man from the marshes, still water no longer. All that rests him is the thrashing waves of the northern seas.

hello hello, and welcome to my little writblr. my name is megan, but feel free to call me megs or meg! i’m sixteen, (turning seventeen on monday!!) and love to read and write. i also play piano, and am dipping my toes into learning violin and flute! if you ever want to talk music, hit me up, i’d love to chat :)

some of my favorite books include caraval by stephanie garber, the book thief by marcus zuzak, lovely war by julie berry, and anything written by marissa meyer! you can find out more about my taste in literature on my main blog @scarlett-dragna but of course, this is a writblr, and you’re here to learn about my writing, so here we go!

i write a lot of short little stories, (some of which i plan on posting soon!) usually around 1k words or so, and occasionally some piece of prose or poetry! with my writblr, i’m hoping to finally get started on a novel idea i’ve had in my head for ages, so look forward to that! i’m working on creating a formal introduction to that wip very soon, but for now here’s a short snippet!

NAME UNDECIDED: a dark academia murder mystery, set at a prestigious academy in europe. one night, a student is poisoned, and every student is a suspect. the story will follow four main protagonists—adryan barlowe, soleil locelle, aimi suzuki, and leonidas chevrolet. (names very subject to change.)

that was a very crappy way of explaining what this wip will entail, but if it intrigues you at all, maybe...stick around? anyways, i’m always up for a chat, so if you want to talk writing or books or music or anything really, i’d love to talk! i’m very excited to meet some new writers here!
