Writing, Whining, Inspiration, and Rambles

Okay off to comment on all the new Honor chapters ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

Hiiii!

So I haven’t had a bit of pain since day 2! I just cannot put any weight on my right foot for another week so I’m pretty much house/bedbound. I have a knee scooter and lots of help but getting around is HARD so what else am I gonna do but getting around some much needed writing time in! ❤️

I could have help on to the chapters and doled them out more slowly but taking in everyone’s reactions has been a lot of fun and encouraging. I’ve been really nervous in particular for the sex so I’m glad to have the consummation out and over!

So I cannot reassure you, anon, except to say that the scene will not be awful or traumatic and it’s something I’ve planned for a long time.

Also happy to report I only had pain for the first two days after surgery and none since. One more week until I’m allowed to walk on it.

Hmm this is interesting!

I try to keep in mind that the Crowns version of Neil has a different sort of trauma than canon Neil. He hasn’t grown up lying, fleeing, hiding, and lying some more; instead he’s been in the Nest and from the get-go there’s no ambiguity about what will happen to him if he feels to perform. He’s still a mouthy shit but he thinks he knows how to choose his battles - so he’s slightly more likely to follow orders and play along with Riko than canon!Neil is.

My babies.

Chapters: 24/? Fandom: Captive Prince - C. S.

The pain just feels like normal though? Just before the surgery it would let up sometimes and now it’s more constant.

Chapters: 18/? Fandom: All For The Game - Nora Sakavic Rating: Mature Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Relationships: Neil Josten/Andrew Minyard Characters: Neil Josten, Andrew Minyard, Riko Moriyama, Jean Moreau Additional Tags: Work in Progress, Tags to be added, another Raven fic, Slow Burn, backstory exploration, Character Analysis, canon-appropriate warnings apply, Underage Smoking, Underage Drinking, Reference to off-screen CSA, We are in for a Journey friends, Raven!Neil, Raven!Andrew Summary:

Wesninski was standing at the Home court door, impatient and annoyed. His weird blue eyes were the same as the boy's, but they looked every bit as merciless and dead as Riko's father's could be. Another shark, Riko realized, even if his runt of a son was nothing but a dog.

Or-

Mary fails to save her son. Nathaniel grows up in the Nest.

@allroadsleadtoromy I hope you don’t mind me answering this way but it comes up every once in a while and people are generally curious so…

I just feel like I connect better with the characters and story when I’m physically writing in a notebook with a good pen. When I type straight into the computer I’m never as happy with the finished product. Plus the act of typing it up gives me an extra chance to throw in any story edits.
