It’s time to share my piece for the @zarkonzine, which you can still download over there for free if you want quality Zarkon content (which you do, obviously).

It’s a mob boss au, which was just an excuse to draw him and Sendak in suits.

Since it is months since the zine was made available I am now posting this here. I crammed so much symbolism into this and some would probably find it blasphemous(I don’t care. I went to a catholic school for 3 years, you must suffer with me).

Title: Cat Person Word Count: 4,949 Pairing: Zarkon/Honerva Also featuring: King Alfor, Kova, various Alteans

Summary: Zarkon has come to Altea on a very important mission: to meet Honerva’s family. He is eager to carry out tradition and make a good impression. He is certainly not nervous. At all. Only one small obstacle stands in the way of his mission’s certain success: the cat.

Originally published in the Zarkon Zine Long Live the Emperor, which you can find here. [Sorry for not being around much lately; I’ve been having health problems that limit my time at the computer.]

Sorry that it’s been nothing but grumbling and signal boosts here for a while. Here’s my whole piece from the Zarkon zine as a small penance.

Baby Steps || Preview for @zarkonzine

here’s a snippet of my piece for the zarkon zine: long live the emperor. keep an eye out for this free downloadable zine available on february 1st !! ❤︎

The sudden shakiness caught everyone off guard when they entered the moon’s atmosphere. Blaytz had fallen sideways into Alfor’s lap, who was thrown back into his seat. Zarkon, having been sitting on the very edge of his seat, had slid off and his face made contact into the back of the pilot’s seat, before he fell onto the cold metal ground. 

Grunting at the impact, Zarkon gently rubbed the side of his face to sooth the soft tinge of pain that lingered. The sounds of laughter overriding the spacecrafts hum. Looking over to Blaytz and Alfor, who were working themselves free from each other, he whined under his breath; ears angled down as he sulked. Hurt that he was being laughed for falling from his seat. 

With a final lurch, the ship came to a stop, and everyone turned their attention to the Galran guard, who pushed himself upright and moved to stand in the aisle between the front seats. “Alright, all communication devices and weaponry are forbidden. You will remain with one guard at all times, and please, Prince Alfor, Prince Zarkon, and Prince Blaytz, don’t cause any mischief or draw too much attention.”

While I’m excited about this(ZARKON), there’s something I find vaguely…idk. Insulting?

Why is that last part Artist only? Do you think Neil’s not going to want to read the stories too? I don’t quite follow the logic here.

it's because the crew (mostly writers, but we want to be safe here) legally cannot read fanfiction. i can't explain this fully but please read this article for more details.
