Procrastination Station

AKA Bear tries new and exciting things, and is very proud of those things.

Bear back at it again with the large projects. Here's the second project I did for @mcytblraufest ! This one is a bit more experimental, but I'm really proud of it! A lot of new POVs, writing a lot of new characters, proper fleshed out OCs, working on characterizations that are character-but-to-the-left. We have everything: War! Found Family! Cheesy song lyrics! Its been a ton of fun! It also wouldn't be possible without all these people who have given me their time and help for the last two months! This fic is fully written and will be released in four parts, one chapter every day.

Poe, AKA @stellarfoam who edited this whole thing, who parallel locked-in with me and who cheered my on the whole way through

salem, aka @salemoleander , who is my AMAZING artist. Their webweaves will show up in Act Two and Act Three, Part Two in the next couple days

@redstonebug who cheered me on the whole time and entertained my rambling and 3am meltdowns around the six week mark

@itsrh0, who also chilled in the project discord and chimed in to help make the whole thing take for

Sumamry:

Seldom has Sausage seen all three of the guilds come together like this, but it's little surprise. The war in Summerhall has been going for as long as he can remember - which, honestly, isn't saying much. But it's been a long time! When Field Marshal Briarlight tells them they've been brought together to finally clear the castle of the dark wizards in residence and take down the dragon, he's more than ready. Its time for him to make his mark on the world, to make sure everyone from Newstar to Stagmouth knows the name Sausage the Mythical Paladin!

What he's not ready for is the true depths of depravity this quest will cause he and his party to come face to face with. Dark wizards don't get labeled as such for no reason, but none of them could have predicted what they would find, and the marks it would leave on them. Deep below the castle, the dragon is as much a victim as any of the citizens, and freeing it is only the first step.

How do you reintroduce a force of magic and nature into a world it hasn't seen in several centuries, when all it has known is the cruel hand of humanity?

Algae duo sketches!

Fairytale

Mentions of past injury, indirect but heavily implied mentions of trauma, crying.

She looked so small, so impossibly small, so fragile.

With her hands together and fidgeting, with her shoulders clenched, with her head bent towards the floor.

And maybe this was stupid, and probably this was stupid, and probably this was a mistake.

But what if it wasn't.

And words finally forced through his vocal chords then.

"Come here, it's okay, come here."

Open arms, just enough, just wide enough.

And hesitation, and tensing further, and that's okay, that's okay, he understands, he understands, and then.

And shaky steps, and shakier hands, and silent apologies, and touch, and gentle and gentle and gentle.

"I've got you. I've got you."

Holding him loose then tighter then tighter still.

And he didn't not expect it, really, he waited for the pin to drop, and this was it, he guessed.

She tried to stop it at first, he could tell, muffling into his shoulder and holding her breath, and cracking further and further and it's okay and he's got her and it's okay.

"I'm sorry, I'm, I'm so scared."

Gentle and gentle and gentle.

A ring under his collar was aching, was rubbed raw, was cold into his soul, into his spinning and spinning and spinning mind.

The back of her shirt in two lines was dry, was flaking, was warm to the touch.

And two faces in two shoulders softly muffled and gentle and gentle and gentle.

"It's okay, I know. I'm scared too. It's okay, it's okay."

He was here and he was here and she was here and she was here.

"Thank you for-"

And she was here and she was safe and he was her and he was safe.

"You're okay. Okay?"

"Okay. It's- it's okay."

And arms loosening but still touching and still there.

"I'm okay. I'm okay."

"Okay. It's okay. When you're ready to talk, I'm here to talk."

And arms loosening but still touching and still there.

"I might need to do that at some point."

"My room is still, and always, open. Okay?"

Let go, let her rest, let her breathe.

"Okay. I'm okay."

Wet faces and equally wet shoulders.

"You know it's okay to not be okay, too."

And gentle and gentle and gentle.

Graecie, Legs, Sausage, and Zam opened a coffee shop a year ago, and in all that time, Legs had only been on the opening shift twice.

Today was the third time, and it was…

Not at all what he had expected.

Unwanted Memories by the Campfire

So that intro cinematic for legs's return stream huh!

(alt vers. under the cut)

I think every character's reactions and opinions are justifiable and understandable from their point of view.

I think it's way more fun and interesting to now think about reactions of each of the characters because it's SO cool how much it makes sense when you take into account what they've been through and what kind of people they are. (Cough, Osteon, Cough, Tf!Legs)
