April Drabbles!

Testing out a second thing this month, which is an open form to submit ideas for DRABBLES! https://forms.gle/3vZqRbnaG88Qgdmt8 Drabbles here means very short stories, about 50 to 200 words max, as opposed to the Omega Ficlets which are usually 1k+. Please keep this in mind if you submit ideas! If you submit something too complex or that I can't do in about 100 or so words, I will skip it! Want to have little drabbles to post on tumblr and to fill in my daily word count. Thank you!

Listen sometimes I fantasize about being a huge mega hit amazing international author and being wildly famous and have a bajillion fans, but I know that’s not healthy so I need to work on it and I am

But anyway been following the drama happening with my old favorite YouTubers (Watcher/Buzzfeed Unsolved) and let me tell you it’s doing wonders for bringing me down to earth and realizing maybe I don’t and shouldn’t want that lmao

#literally if being pretend famous in a fanfiction website did me so much damage #can u imagine the DAMAGE being actually fr famous would do???

One of the small joys of uploading all my stuff onto Ao3 is I’ll get really excited comments on TEL saying they’re so happy I picked the story back up again and can’t wait for the rest

And it’s like very nice to have that feedback from a location that’s not my usual audience

And also I have to stand there like “do I make this person’s entire month by linking them to the finished TEL and then TEK” or “do I milk this for all it’s worth”

The Enchanted Era prologue is available on the website for kofi and Patreon supporters!

The Enchanted Era

This story is a sequel to The Enchanted Kingdom Once upon a time, there was a mare who did not believe in fairytales, and a very different m

It’ll be available to the public next week.

Ma'am?? 'Rarity's WIFE'??? HER WIFE?????

you heard me

i mean read me

#will making this impulse choice have consequences?#maybe #but that's future Mono's problem

finishing The Enchanted Era's prologue which is a North Ridge flash-forward, and wanted to show this little snippet/spoiler bc it's a nice paragraph about North describing Rarity after having earlier seen Twilight

#this is incredibly indulgent #which is fine because TEra mono is here to be indulgent

show, don't tell:

anticipation - bouncing legs - darting eyes - breathing deeply - useless / mindless tasks - eyes on the clock - checking and re-checking

frustration - grumbling - heavy footsteps - hot flush - narrowed eyes - pointing fingers - pacing / stomping

sadness - eyes filling up with tears - blinking quickly - hiccuped breaths - face turned away - red / burning cheeks - short sentences with gulps

happiness - smiling / cheeks hurting - animated - chest hurts from laughing - rapid movements - eye contact - quick speaking

boredom - complaining - sighing - grumbling - pacing - leg bouncing - picking at nails

fear - quick heartbeat - shaking / clammy hands - pinching self - tuck away - closing eyes - clenched hands

disappointment - no eye contact - hard swallow - clenched hands - tears, occasionally - mhm-hmm

tiredness - spacing out - eyes closing - nodding head absently - long sighs - no eye contact - grim smile

confidence - prolonged eye contact - appreciates instead of apologizing - active listening - shoulders back - micro reactions

man in the span of a few days i've - started coming up with new raritwi content - actually been so engaged in writing I wrote on my phone while out for the first time in literal years - started pacing to think about stories lowkey lowkey highkey I don't know exactly what happened but TEra and all the changes I've done on myself are finally paying off and for the first time I feel like I'm actually realistically headed straight back to who I was as a writer during my TEL era lmao

I can't tell what you're saying in your most recent post, and it makes me feel like I'm 1000 years old. I am so out of touch.

ahahahaha! to explain, North Ridge and Incantation are OCs that feature in my Enchanted Library series, specifically Enchanted Kingdom. I'm currently working on the sequel, The Enchanted Era, which is just me completely restarting the sequel I'd already started posting about a year ago called The Enchanted Carousel.

working on the prologue again tonight which is protagonized by North Ridge and it is amazing and also a mistake because idk how I can make rarity and twilight seem interesting as a follow up act to him he's too GOOD

oh also for any incantation Stan out there, I decided to respectfully say no to whatever TEC!Mono was planning and she will now be a more permanent traveling companion

#I’m sorry I love my OCs a lot

#also offer is still up for anyone who wants the gdoc links and read along #anyway yeah north ridge… my son

Starting the first chapter of TEra with

Rarity: do you think my poor cat even remembers me?

Twi: you have a cat????

#I’m SORRY OPAL #I’m SURE YOU LOVE LIVING WITH SWEETIE BELLE ANYWAY

hello is anyone here caught up on tek and is mildly not busy right now, would you be interested in prereading the TEra update/prologue with commenting rights open and be willing to write cheerleading comments as I finish writing it tonight because my DEMONS are eating me alive like restarting the story was absolutely the right decision and I'm excited but yea

#i feel like some horrific validation addict #BUT I AM #AND IM WORKING ON IT #BUT yea

as a heads up to anyone reading it, TEC will be deleted today and cancelled. I just don't feel like I can continue it, and it was written by a wholly different person.

To that, I hope you're all looking forward to The Enchanted Era, a new story that will begin publishing starting next week, and that is absolutely me just restarting TEC and doing it the way I want which is how it should have always been

as an additional note, the officially decreed nickname/acronym will be TEra and not TEE bc it makes me think of tee hee and that's unbearable
