I Lived Above A Domino’s And I Can Confirm They Are Demons! The Back Entrance Of My House Was The Same

The real horror of The Magnus Archives is having to listen to your favorite characters breaking down live on tape and sobbing their eyes out. You can’t reach them. You can’t hug them. You can’t even make them tea. 

I was tagged by the lovely @create-and-procrastinate to answer some questions about me. Thank you!

Relationship Status: All by myself (cue dramatic music)

Chapstick or Lipstick: I like lipstick. I should wear it more often!

Favorite Colors: Soft, light blue, ocean blue and deep red. L

ast Movie I Saw: Palo Alto, based on stories by James Franco. It has a great atmosphere that completely pulled me into it.

Top 3 TV Shows: The last three I watched are Black Sails (all four seasons at once), The End of the F***ing World (this is so weird and so good) and Dark (not yet finished, but quite entranced).

Top 3 Bands/Artists: I can't choose all time favorites, but right now I'm listening to Death Cab for Cutie, The Bear's Den and Sleeping at Last.

Books I’m Currently Reading: I'm reading Wuthering Heights for university and I just finished The Picture of Dorian Grey (which I adored), so I'm into classics right now! 

Tagging @concealeddarkness13, @authorisada, @theimpossiblescheme and @siljehawthorne. Don’t do it if you don’t feel like it!

This one is to Ana, an alien queen with a dark past, by @lethalblizzard. I hope you can recognize her here! Requests for OC aesthetics are open.

I’m sorry this took so long! Here’s to the bard Hedorim Tolmish, by @hawkeyesout-punks. I hope it was worth the wait!

Requests for OC aesthetics are open.

I am writing a highly self-indulgent podcast like that, myself! More info at six. 

podcasts really struck gold when they tapped into the niche but highly enjoyable genre that is "eccentric gay person with an unusual occupation where a ton of weird shit happens narrates their adventures and personal life" and i just cannot get enough

Thanks for the invitation to ramble! Come drop by on my blog/in my inbox anytime, I’d love to hear about your projects. I’m writing a historical fantasy, set in England around 1800. It’s about a band of traveling artists/magicians, each of them having left their homes and joined the group for their own reasons. I follow a couple of them throughout the story as they slowely split up because 1) Tin, a girl with a gun named Charley and the temper of a wargod, gets someone in prison per accident and goes on to attemp jailbreak 2) Silver, a lad pretending to be arrogant, leaves after a extensive misunderstanding and is taken in by a guy he is totally not falling in love with (spoiler: romance is the least of his problems) 3) Copper (sort of an asshole, but Silvers best friend) and Phosphore (she’s a godess, I don’t even know) go to find Silver but find quite something else and 4) Tungsten, the newest member of the group, tries really hard to understand himself, the world, and just to not fuck this up (spoiler: someone else fuck it up for him) I use this story to work with very different and diverse characters and I get to do a lot of historical research, so I really feel like I’m out playing and exploring!

Tell me what you’re working on!

I’m realizing as I see other writeblrs talk about their characters that I really don’t know what most of you are writing. (Or I did at one point and it’s hard to keep straight.) I’d love to become more familiar with your projects! I’m unfortunately an anxious introvert who’s too afraid to initiate conversations and I’m pretty sure the times I’m on Tumblr aren’t when anyone else is so I miss a lot of posts.

So I’m wondering if I could get all you writers to reblog this post and ramble about your characters? Or link me to a bio page for them if you have one? Or a page about your stories in general if you have that? If you want to, of course!

Please help out a curious person who stinks at talking to people. Even if we haven’t talked, I would love to hear your ramblings! 💚

I was tagged by the lovely @dreamsofbooksandmonsters​, @authorisada​ and @wchwriter​ to post the last line I have written. Thanks for thinking of me! From Elementary: He might have chosen a new name, but he had been Silver for years now. These two syllables kept his roles together, had even touched what lay beneath the masks. I will tag @morrigans-ink-0124, @aceofspace, @fragrant-stars and @greenhousewriting. No pressure, though!
