CHAPTER DROP: Leaking Spark, Ch 8

CHAPTER DROP: Leaking Spark, Ch 8

I might be rushing just a tiny bit but I finished an editing pass and a chapter cut today, so boop, here's a new release!

aaaaAAAA: Author Struggle Bus

(If you don't want to see my personal posts, my tag for these is "#dat rambles")

Not me pulling at my hair smacking my forehead on the desk because I am well into the next chapters of Gladiators of Kaon; and I am unsure if my representations of the Precious Beans are accurate enough because confession I haven't actually watched all of G1 yet I've seen like 1 episode and a half and then I got distracted writing fanfiction and reading o o p s but the story floooooows

(author ramblings continue after the cut)

and now here I am with many chapters and it's adorable and I love it but also p a n i c because it's my first time writing them. I hope ya'll don't have specific expectations for characters because OPE I SORRY I AM JUST WRITING WHAT I SEE. And reading a lot of wiki pages. (Whoever does the captiosn for images on that site, oh my goodness, they are SO WITTY. I LOVE IT. Sarcasm, puns, sattire, my sides are hurting from how much i've laughed while reading up on transformers i've never actually heard of or met before and researching lore ideas to yoink for the world building of this story's universe and setting)

I have read a stupid amount of wiki pages.

still though

it's like

my favorite chapter rn because ADORABLE SPARKLINGS UGH EEEEEEE and it's so friggin' cute I can't stand it (comfy chair and blanket acquired, one parrot loose and one happily eating noms \o/). I hope it goes over well but if not oh well

writing Soundwave when he's not in Perfect Composure Mode is an entertaining and endearing experience.

Out For a Walk

HAMMER (NAP)TIME

(if you don't want to see my personal posts, my tag for them is "Dat Rambles")

I'm not saying that I'm ridiculous and goofy enough i gave the very special hammer a very special storage place for while not in use

But it now has its home to stay and i figured out what to do with my tiny beaver pelt.

But i giggle like the dork i am because i realized it's also a symbolic pun and it's perfect.

The blade tucked there with it was a gift from a friend, it reminds me of fun stories and pleasant memories.

Some pictures of my tiny little old af forge below the cut.

i am so excited to (carefully) drag this thing outside and hammer some metal. I've got a modest pile of a range of scrap metal grades to practice with and some good steel knife blanks to pound out once I've found my rhythm

Eeeee

I am so stoked. Made sure to call my friend and thank him for helping make this possible.

That unassuming looking railroad tie is my anvil \o/ it makes the most lovely harmonic when you tap it. Just. Mmmmm. Music of the forge bby.

Maaaan that coal pile is dusty. Been a while since I've lit the coal.

I feel the hammer needs a name and so help me I'm struggling not to settle on "THIS HAMMER" help

Skull Paintings & Bones

Was this the best background i could take photos on? No. Am i sharing these semi candid project pictures anyways?

You betcha. Enjoy my silly laptop cover chaos.

(artist rambling below the cut)

I've been painting on skulls and bones for years now. They seem to find their way to me, and eventually, to the painting table.

Each one feels short of like a gift to me; i don't really think up the designs so much as i look at the skulls and just kinda... Idk how better to explain it, but it's like they tell me what colors to use. Sometimes , i don't have the right paint, so they sit for a while until i do.

I'm quite rusty, it's been a while since I've had my painting this all set up to work; life has been busy with moving and medical stuff and all kinds of life things. I'm happy with how they're turning out in light of that. My hands shake a bit sometimes, so doing the fine precise lines I want to do can be a challenge.

I have painted more than i can count.... And I have very few photos to share because i am TERRIBLE at remembering to document them.

So consider this my efforts towards that.

CHAPTER DROP: Star of the Show ch 1

HERE IT IS, BABES.

Book one is done. Mostly. I will probably be editing it until my dying days but fuck it I am posting what's written!

This is a 500+ page fic of kinks and plot and wholesome feels.

It's Starscream and Mirage centric, romance wise, but there's simping for many bots because I cannot be contained and why gods why are Transformers all so hot???

Follows the journey of a woman (AFAB) named Clara, who was born with an affliction that causes her no end of troubles... because she emits Energon radiation :3

Anyhow... here's my humble contribution to the fanfiction soup of Starscream (and Mirage) lovers. Enjoy this spicy Soulmate / Reverse-Harem journey.

@ss-shitstorm I DID I DID THE THING SENPAI
