This is embarrassing. Can’t even remember how long it’s been since I last updated a fic, probably almost a year. I admit I’ve been lazy and unproductive and kind of focused on other things, but, as usual, I’m not dead. I guess I’m a zombie?

So, here’s a double update. I’ve re-written the first chapter of Fondness; the plan was to just adapt it to make it less sucky, but it turned out something completely different. Hopefully it’s better.

And I’ve also updated Dragons. Not sure there’s anything in particular to say about that, except some necessary “plothole-ish” parts are now out of the way, so anything after this will be mostly character interactions and pregnancy stuff and fluff/drama/etc. 

Enjoy, feel free to comment/criticize/what have you, and, as always, thank you very much for the attention and for your time! It’s late and I’m tired, so I’ll probably fix potential mess-ups sometime later; I apologize for those in advance. 

See ya! o/

Hello, hello, everyone! It’s been a while! I apologize for my absence, but lots of stuff happened and I got lazy!

Anyway, here’s what I promised last time we met: the first chapter of a new Alutegra fic, “Dragons”: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13032986/1/Dragons

It’s kind of a weird chapter, but that’s because I was at a loss on how to introduce this new story... So I took a bunch of unfinished, independent texts and tied them together with a singular motif. As you read through, you’ll probably figure out what the story’s about, but if you don’t, well, you’re going to have to wait for chapter 2, hehe.

Yo, everyone! Chapter 7 is right here!

I remember saying in my last post that it wouldn’t take me too long to post this chapter, but... I kinda got addicted to Yo-Kai Watch (Fleshy Souls for Kyubi power), and ended up postponing both the writting and release of Dubious.

Regardless, there you go! It’s not the most creative; I suppose I lost the “weirdness” I wanted to develop with The Nest (chapter 2), but, still, it’s Alutegra and a little awkward, so there’s that.

Like I said in the author’s notes, Dubious will be the last chapter I’ll upload to Fondness for a while. Not only because I want to focus on a more proper Alutegra story, but because I also want to engage on another creative endeavor (which I hope will benefit my love for the couple). 

I’m thinking about eventually releasing the real bad and unfinished stuff I wrote, but I keep changing my mind because I get embarrassed by all the terribleness. If these scraps do get some sort of polishing, though, they’ll be posted, rest assured.

It’s right here: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11066640/6/Fondness

I wasn’t very creative with this chapter, I’ll admit. I just wanted a way to turn headcanons into something “narrative-y”. 

Apologies for making Alucard wimpy. It’s just an idea I had for his reaction concerning the things he cares about. Or rather, the prospect of losing them. You know when Windows pops up that FATAL ERROR blue screen? That’s how I see it.

Yeah, it’s pretty fucking weak, but there you go. Also, I don’t think I’ll take too long (not my usual interval, at least) to post the next chapter.

No, seriously, it does, of no one’s fault but mine.

It’s always the same, really. I go AWOL for God knows how long, spend the entire time involved in other stuff BESIDES writing, and then I suddenly realize I haven’t updated in a long while, and I panic. So, of course, I scramble around and pretty much force myself to sit down and actually write something (because there’s no other way I’ll ever produce anything), so I feel less shitty about being online-useless.

And it hardly ever comes out the way I originally planned. 

(Warning: I ramble a lot beyond this point).

Hello!

A new chapter for Fondness was uploaded. Link is right here. [Click]

Also, this will be my last update in a couple (or so) of months. It’s probably not very different from the usual time I take to upload (ouch), but this is kind of an actual, official hiatus. Something came up IRL (nothing serious, really) that demands my full attention, so I won’t be able to write anything until I sort it out.

Hopefully, it will be resolved in two months or so. When I get back, I’ll most likely work on a new chapter for Fondness, rather than of any other sort of creative work.

As far as this new chapter is concerned, it’s my first time writing something like that and it felt kind of weird, I’ll admit. The Alutegra moments weren’t as prominent, but I guess I’m reasonably satisfied with how it came out. It’s really frustrating that I have not been able to come up with quirky behavior for Alucard (or Integra) like I did in the second chapter (The Nest), so I want to work on that. :/
