Some stuff about me: I’m 28, Australian, high school English teacher by trade. Most of my work involves dark and/or questionable themes, though I am willing to sprinkle in a bit of lightness every now and then. At the moment, I am writing for House of the Dragon - you can expect me to tackle ANY and ALL dodgy themes from that series (non-con, incest, age gaps, medieval purity culture etc.).
I do not currently take requests outside my ‘Terms of Endearment’ series, though I do greatly enjoy discussing smut ideas with my readers!

Hey! Sorry, life’s gotten in the way as of late. I know I said I was returning, but I don’t think I’m in the position to fully commit yet. I am tentatively interested, though! But I want to actually do some writing behind the scenes before I make any sort of call on that.
I may occasionally pop in to add my two cents about this upcoming season—but I don’t think that frequent Tumblr use is in the cards for me anymore. I’ll post something every once in a while and dip, LOL.
I do think about my work on here a lot! I want to come back. But I have some life stuff to get out of the way before I can really settle in to any pattern of engagement with this space or fandom in general.
I hope you and everyone is doing well! I’m looking forward to Season 3! MORE DAEMON! Honestly, I’m in it for the vibes, haha 🎉🎉🎉
ARE YOU WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE BECAUSE I’VE JUST FINISHED YOUR DAEMON FANFIC AND OMG I HAVE NEVER READ A BETTER FIC YOU WROTE HIM AND ALL THE OTHER CHARACTERS SO ACCURATE LITERALLY MY FAV FANFIC 🤍 You’re so talented omg never be ashamed of your writing or fanfic because I’m just in awe of your talent give me some please 💕💕💕
Hello! This is incredibly flattering (thank you), and I really appreciate the kindness! I know I’ve quite a ways to go writing-wise before I consider myself technically good, but it is definitely nice to know that my work is being well-received. I try really hard to make sure my characterisation is reasonably accurate (though I think I’ve made Daemon a bit too OOC, or perhaps brought forward too many characteristics that only apply to pre-Episode 3 Daemon), so I’m glad this is a high point for you!
If you ever are interested/want another writer to touch base with, I’d be happy to lend an ear (well, metaphorically; basically, hit my DMs up bro)! I’m not super experienced but I’m enthusiastic!
"i don't comment on ao3 because i don't wanna be annoying or weird" skill issue + you greatly underestimate the power dynamic here, writing multi paragraph comments is like feeding a bunch of deeply insane and possibly starved ducks at the park and watch them go completely mad over having received a piece of bread

this is something impossible to articulate while lying in bed, but. at the risk of being misinterpreted as going "the curtains are blue", a lot of poor analysis and commentary and understanding on this site about theme and story comes, in part, out of this idea that a story has to Say Something. that the work is Making A Statement, that there's A Point. that every work is a fable and themes are the part at the end where The Takeaway is explained.
so, we end up with people trying to find instructional meaning in stories that aren't didactic. most narratives reveal political perspectives and work in ethical frames, yes, but there's this tendency these days to behave as if The True Point And Meaning of these works is political and ethical statements vis a vis these frameworks, and that other themes are ancillary to that, if worth consideration at all — and to many, it isn't.
in other, shorter words, many approach stories in the mindset of a story being about something is identical to making a statement. it's born of, among other things, this idea that works Say Something, thus people search for the Moral Of The Story, losing any perspective of storytelling as a craft and diminishing any sense of theme outside of ethical and political didactisism.
Who comes up with like, fanfiction concepts? I just spent AGES trying to figure out what a ‘munch’ was after seeing it in a smut post; I thought it referenced Munch from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.

I hate how bot comments on ao3 are making more and more writers disable their comments and lock their works so that only people with registered accounts can access their works (because while some of these bots are from registered accounts and therefore locking your fics won’t guarantee that you will be safe from them, a lot of them are commenting as guest users so locking fics helps a little), because there are so many genuine readers who read and comment on fics without having their own registered accounts.
these bots are not only annoying and harmful (if you fell for their lies and gave them money, an access to your personal informations), they’re also keeping artists and art from genuine audiences and destroying the community artists built with their audiences.
this is a post to say fuck you every bot out there.
WITH EVERY REBLOG THIS POST GETS, A BOT WILL DIE
also here’s how to spot and deal with bot comments
AO3 has recently seen a rise in guest spambot comments making false accusations about work creators or other users. For example, they may claim that a particular user is discriminating against minorities, trying to hide the fact that they use AI, or are at risk of having their works stolen or deleted.
These comments often copy existing AO3 usernames in order to make their accusations seem more legitimate. They may also try to lure people onto other platforms (similar to the art commission scam), or use fake links that actually lead to pornographic images.
As always, we recommend that you do not click on any suspicious links or give your contact information to scammers. Instead, simply mark the comments as spam or report them so that the Policy & Abuse committee can remove comments left by these spambots.
Learn how to recognize them and what to do below the cut!
How to recognize this kind of spam:
The comments come from guests, not logged-in users.
The comments may start with praise for you and your writing, trying to lull you into a false sense of security. Or they may claim that you are a bad writer, trying to make you too upset to realize that the comments are fake.
The comments may accuse you or another user of promoting discriminatory beliefs, deceiving fans, or similar behaviors that might cause other people to shun or harass the accused individual. They may claim that they checked social media to find that the accused user is "brazenly sharing hateful content" or "bragging about using AI".
The comments are often pleading or angry, asking you to "stop lying to your readers", "don't remove the AI prompts from your work", or suggesting that you "consider adding more diverse characters" to "repair the trust you've lost with your audience".
So far, these comments have all been from guests. Our advice is to flag them as spam to better filter them out.
To help train our automated spam-checker to block similar guest comments in the future:
If the comment is on your own work:
Go directly to the comment on your work, either by clicking on the link in your email or in your AO3 inbox.
Click on the "Spam" button to mark the guest comment as spam and remove it from your work.
Note: The "Spam" button only appears when viewing a guest comment directly on your work. This is because the AO3 comment inbox is merely a copy of the work's comments – deleting a comment from your AO3 inbox does not delete the comment from the work itself.
If you see comments like these on someone else's work:
Feel free to let the creator know the comment is from a bot, and that they should mark it as spam.
You can also report the comments as botspam via the Policy Questions & Abuse Reports form linked at the bottom of every page on AO3.
If you are reporting multiple guest comments, please submit only one report, and include all comment links in your report description. (You can get the direct link to any comment by clicking the "Thread" button on the comment, and then copying the URL of that page.)
As of December 2025, bots have also left guest comments harassing users by:
threatening to report you/your fic to the authorities or your employers
alleging security concerns like your email being compromised or spyware on your computer
claiming that they know your address and are going to visit you at your house
saying that you will die alone and unemployed over the holidays
What these bots claim is not true. These accusations do not mean your work will be deleted or that your accounts are insecure. We recommend that you mark these comments as spam following the instructions in our previous post.
These examples also do not represent the full range of harassment comments that you may receive. We will continue to try and keep you updated about trends; however, please note that the exact wording the bots use will continue to evolve.
If you're not sure if something is a spambot comment, you're welcome to contact Policy & Abuse for assistance. Refer to the original post for more information!
As of January 2026, bots impersonating legitimate users have increasingly left guest comments harassing other users by:
claiming that they know where you live
alleging to have seen you in person
threatening to meet you face-to-face
saying that they posted your personal information (name, address, etc) online
What these bots claim is not true. These comments are likely intended to alarm you into replying.We recommend that you mark these comments as spam following the instructions in our previous post.

I cannot recommend enough making friends with the fan fic writers that you admire because #1. They're probably great people and you'll like them #2. And more importantly, YOU CAN SCREAM AT THEM VIA DMS ABOUT THEIR WORK and it's just a great use of everyone's time.
awesome that Daemon is being haunted by demons and spirits for being a kinslayer who should not be around children and the second he wakes up and sees a child he’s like you boy, why don’t you fucking murder your grandfather because the way to fix unbearable psychological torment from the gods themselves is of course, doubling down

I’ve been watching this video about Daenerys’s cool red cape thingy from Season 7 of Game of Thrones (context: I have a Daenerys figure that I’m trying to add missing parts of the costume to), and I’m just blown away by how cool.
