Cycle of Life

for this week's @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt!

word count: 604

In tribute to death, there is life. A cherry sapling, sprouted on top of the hill by the river.

In the immediate years after her mother’s death, Cheyoria paid little heed to it. Her mother wasn’t actually there, her father said, the link to her spirit would only be as strong as one wanted it to be.

Naturally, the meaning passed over her at five years old like birds would pass over anyone’s.

Only when the birds were free would her mother come back.

best trope is the one where the character’s godlike power is also killing them btw. they don’t even lift a hand to kill the monster but now they’re delirious with fever. they save a friend’s life and said friend immediately finds them emergency medical care. they raze the enemy to nothing and it takes far too long to find their pulse with all the bruising. their friends just constantly having to patch them up and worrying over which feat will be their last. et cetera

Fate's Fury

What is it?

This WIP has evolved over the past two years, and will continue to evolve. You can find the outdated intro post here.

Fate's Fury is a webcomic intended to be posted 1 page at a time on Tumblr. It is split into three arcs, represented by Dawn, Midday, and Dusk.

It is the story of Fate, the last witch left after the local vampire warlord killed the rest of them. Now on a mission for revenge, Fate must find a way to take down the entire vampire society from the foundations.

On a broken world full of magic and surrouded by otherworldly beings, she finds that the power of her fury may just cause the end of the world.

Characters

Fate, she/her

As a witch, her magical powers are entirely physical and manifest as ribbons, trackers, and occasionally bursts of light. She doesn't remember escaping the vampire's captivity, but she does remember what the warlord who took her family looked like. And she's determined to bring his empire to its knees.

Fate is associated with the midday sun, all heat and temper. Her magic is rough and firey, exhausting her when she uses it.

Dreamer, full name Daydreamer, he/they

A cat shapeshifter with additional psychic abilities. Dreamer can link people through their dreams, and manipulate their unconscious visions. He is Fate's ex-boyfriend, and the two of them are just starting to learn how to be friends again. Devoted to protecting his family, he joins Fate's mission in order to stop the vampires' insidious rise to power.

Dreamer is associated with dawn, dusk, and twilight. He is part of the in-between places, the point where one just falls asleep. His magic is liminal and difficult to define.

Destiny, he/him

The neglected son of the vampire warlord, Destiny is half vampire and half demon. Rather than make him more powerful, this combination of traits makes him weaker. Determined to win his father's approval, he fights back against Fate's attacks. But his crippling loneliness will become his downfall.

Destiny is associated with the void between stars, and the cold surface of the moon. He is the emptiness of shadowed places, deep caves and the bottom of the ocean. His magic is unable to function without outside input, just as the moon reflects the sun.

Intro art will be linked here.

Worldbuilding posts will be linked here.

The tag #development updates will contain any an all updates to the progress of the comic's development.

Character Intro: Fate

Image ID: Text on the left of the image reads, Fate: Red, flame-like magic. Swirling ‘tattoos’ that shift and move under the influence of magic. Painted wooden mask. Stolen Ceremonial dagger. The woman in the image has medium brown skin with darker, curving markings that peek out from her clothes. Her hair is a shoulder length, but cut choppily. She wears a tech wear inspired outfit with lots of pockets and buckles. She also wears a purple cape wit ha hood that extends past her knees. Her upturned palm produces bright red magic that looks like fire. Next to her is a oval shaped, evil looking blue mask that sports a devilish grin. Also next to her is a red dagger with a curled claw extending from the base of the hilt. End ID. 

  • Fate is 6 feet tall and built like a wrestler. 
  • She prefers to live a life of solitude, avoiding interaction with other people whenever possible. 
  • Her best friend Dreamer is also her ex-boyfriend. They broke up amicably when they decided that they worked better as friends. 
  • She has extensive memory loss due to her trauma, but what she does remember infuriates her. The vampire overlord basically enslaved her, and even though she escaped, there are still others like her suffering in the same ways. So Fate makes it her mission to free them. 
  • Fate uses she/her pronouns and is ambiguously queer. None of the characters in this story are straight but the plot also isn’t romance centric.   

Send me and ask if you want to be added to the taglist!

Beyond Aged Doors

For this week's @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt!

This is the moment that kickstarts everything, when Saoirse meets a guy on a night out and agrees to head to his place, only for there to be a catch.

Word count: 377

“Where are you taking me?” Saoirse asked, her hand interwoven with a lad who pressed his other hand to the wall and made it shimmer.

She wondered if this was how she’d meet her doom, dragged to some unknown spot like too many women and girls before her.

The lad brought her to a wooden hovel, the floorboards creaking under their footsteps. Dust coated the place for days, floating in the air illuminated by faint rays of sunlight. “I told you, we’re going to my place.”

“Right. How far is that, then?”

He stopped at the door, his hand gripping the loose handle. “Do you not trust me? Honest to God, I’m not one of those men.”

She baulked at the question, at the seriousness of his tone.

Beyond that door she could swear she heard voices, the exact words muffled by the walls. The sudden change of scenery made her hesitate. “Just answer my question.”

“If you’re having doubts about this, I’ll bring you back, no questions asked. But if I was one of those men, I would’ve done what I needed to by now.”

“Hmm…” Saoirse still had his hand in hers, the freckles on her skin highlighted by the faint slivers of light. Everything within her screamed to go back, head home and face the trouble from her parents for having stayed out in a random field past Athenry until the dark hours of the morning. But she didn’t fancy her parents’ ire right now.

“What do you mean by ‘go back?’, where are we exactly?”

He gave her a smirk and a wink, opening the door and pulling her towards him. “Let me show you.”

She got shoved out the door, having to readjust herself to the blast of sunlight. People bustled through the streets, wearing cotton dresses and loose pants, yet none of the men seemed to be topless. Gazing up at the buildings, she wondered if the pair went back in time. Only thing is, this lane didn’t resemble Shop Street. Or any street she knew, really.

She couldn’t take the awe off her face. “Ruadhán, what time period is this?”

He laughed at her interpretation, now beginning to walk down the cobbled path. “The present, obviously. Welcome to Arobyre, dear.”

Ranges from ships to character studies to little tales, this list has a lot. I’m hoping to be an avid participator because the prompts gives me the inspo and guts. Heed the TW in the A/N section, thanks. Basically, an organized list for me because tags aren’t helpful.

Note: I’ll reblog the list when I post something new.

An Invitation to the Afterlife

For this week's @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt!

Word count: 764

“Upon this pyre, you must burn.”

Her name was Ealide, a sweet young thing. Born of the flowers she tried to protect, she sought her life’s work in revival.

“Upon this pyre, you must burn.”

Michel would be a liar to suggest that he accepted his death. Acolytes of the Treaty wrapped him in ceremonial garb, a long cord of rope tying him to the pyre.

The crowd’s hallowed chants rang through the air. Some would say a pyre was too honourable for his crimes, that he should burn by pure magic of a fiery hand. Though of course, that would be doing Fate’s work.

“Upon this pyre, you must burn.”

A summer’s day in Nomet. Himself and the lady took to a spot by the riverside. Pleasurable banter made way for a curious glance, and furthermore, the wilting of a few leaves.

“These leaves form a trail.” He noticed, not hesitating to follow at her behest. What started as splutters of wilted leaves and spotted bark, degraded further. The trail absorbed the summer light, crowns and canopies crowding like squashed teeth. The ground festered with mulch and fungi, the flowers long wilted and without their fine petals.

Birdsong made way for silence, before the emergence of the atrium.

He held Ealide as she recoiled in horror. The trees enforced darkness here, masking from above the smell and ichor of death. The mushrooms in the centre spread out of their circular formation, some growing at the feet of the willow dryad.

She went up and took the dryad’s hand in hers, pleading for her not to be dead.

“Child of spring.” The dryad rasped, wrapping its long fingers over her hand and forearm. “A blight festers here. Blessed as I would be for your assistance, the blight makes you vulnerable.”

“I do not care. I wish to help you and your grove.” Michel admired her determination. He hoped only for her not to lose herself in the process.
