Helena Bertinelli/Huntress Reading List/CompletionistGuide

Helena Bertinelli/Huntress Reading List/Completionist Guide

Helena Bertinelli is the Huntress of Prime Earth. She has existed as a character since 1989, and has appeared in her own series as well as multiple other series throughout the years. Most well known for being a Bird of Prey, she has a long history that tends to be hard to track. Instead of hunting down all of the issues, this guide has every one of her appearances in the attempt to follow her chronologically, but where her movements couldn’t be followed the natural passing of time was used to follow the story. 

This is both a reading list and a completionist guide. This means there will be times when the issue only has a cameo of Helena. For a casual reader this list may be a little much. If that is the case click [here] for a shorter list that can get you started on Helena. 

Moving onto Content Warnings. 

There will be mentions and depictions of Sexual Assault of Adults and Minors, Slavery, PTSD, and Murder. These are some of the big Content Warnings. That being said let’s get started.

To the Helena Bertinelli fans I hope you enjoy! 

@inkareds​ I finished the complete guide if you want to check it out. 

If I made any mistakes or forgot something leave a comment, or send me a message. I tried to include everything, but I could have messed up. I will also try to update this as new Huntress stuff comes out, so the list may grow. 

When will the new Love Among War and Connected Stories update be released?

[This is the best ff by Percethan].

Heyo!

I do have something in the drafts. It's the extended version that I had cut down when I originally posted it. It includes scenes that I removed, scenes I had cut down, and a bit more of a look into the story and the effects that it has on the story.

It also includes some more descriptions and an updated version of my writing style.

In fact the story on Ao3 is version 2. Version 1 had two parts. For Version 3 I am combining the two parts. It's taking way longer because I am not currently in the PJO fandom, and have kind of moved onto my main fixation.

[DC]

I am committed to finishing the story but I don't know when it will be out. It could be in the next couple of weeks or it could be in a couple of months. I work on the story when I don't have much going on, but I'm currently working on a complete read through of Helena Bertinelli which is my pinned post. It will take me awhile.

Adding on the three other WIPs I have at the moment, plus an almost full time job, and all the other obligations I have, and it gets hard to do things.

I promise I will finish the story and add more to it. I just need to take it slow or the story will be rushed.

very mecore to send like fifty different inspo dresses when asked which of them reminds you of a fictional character. very mecore indeed.

anyways

drew Talia in Elie Saab Fall 2023 Couture for @gretaghostgirl for no reason other than i have a desperate need to draw characters in couture and if no one’s gonna commission me then i’m gonna make them anyways for my friends and cas deserves it for being insane about fashion like me <3

Yeee haww

Ref Recs for Whump Writers

Violence: A Writer’s Guide:  This is not about writing technique. It is an introduction to the world of violence. To the parts that people don’t understand. The parts that books and movies get wrong. Not just the mechanics, but how people who live in a violent world think and feel about what they do and what they see done.

Hurting Your Characters: HURTING YOUR CHARACTERS discusses the immediate effect of trauma on the body, its physiologic response, including the types of nerve fibers and the sensations they convey, and how injuries feel to the character. This book also presents a simplified overview of the expected recovery times for the injuries discussed in young, otherwise healthy individuals.

Body Trauma: A writer’s guide to wounds and injuries. Body Trauma explains what happens to body organs and bones maimed by accident or intent and the small window of opportunity for emergency treatment. Research what happens in a hospital operating room and the personnel who initiate treatment. Use these facts to bring added realism to your stories and novels.

10 B.S. Medical Tropes that Need to Die TODAY…and What to Do Instead: Written by a paramedic and writer with a decade of experience, 10 BS Medical Tropes covers exactly that: clichéd and inaccurate tropes that not only ruin books, they have the potential to hurt real people in the real world. 

Maim Your Characters: How Injuries Work in Fiction: Increase Realism. Raise the Stakes. Tell Better Stories. Maim Your Characters is the definitive guide to using wounds and injuries to their greatest effect in your story. Learn not only the six critical parts of an injury plot, but more importantly, how to make sure that the injury you’re inflicting matters. 

Blood on the Page: This handy resource is a must-have guide for writers whose characters live on the edge of danger. If you like easy-to-follow tools, expert opinions from someone with firsthand knowledge, and you don’t mind a bit of fictional bodily harm, then you’ll love Samantha Keel’s invaluable handbook
