So I did a thing... I sat with the idea for at least six months and it's taken me two to write the thing, so I'm happy to be able to put it out into the world now.

Doodle. Sweet memories hurt me so bad. But I still miss you, Hiccup……

I've been thinking about The Worst Witch and how much I miss the students causing mischief and how Hecate's first thought is to find Ada.

When Ada and Hecate become trapped in a magical blizzard, they're forced to seek shelter in a tiny hut on the edge of the forest. Rated M for implied sexual content.
For @cassiopeiasara, the world's latest birthday present. I hope you like it.

The first pic doesn't capture the shininess of the paint. This was my first time binding a fanfic or anything really and I made a lot of mistakes, but I learned a lot. The fic is a hicsqueak fic by @troiings and I've read it many times, it's sooooo good and in so glad they were cool with me binding it. Sorry it took so long, I took many breaks lol. Shout to @renegadepublishing and their discord server, everyone was super helpful and knowledgeable.
You can find the fic here:

Fandom: Still loving Miss Hardbroom?
I'm asking into the void of fandom - is the love for Miss Hardbroom still alive in 2024? Because I've been browsing Tumblr lately and don't see much new fan content about her... I'm not new to TWW but to Tumblr... Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places... Help, anyone?

RULES: Post the last sentence you wrote (fanfic / original / anything) and tag as many people as there are words in the sentence
Tagged by @fezwearingjellybananas so thank you very much! This is from the first part of my Aquafam AU - Orm is Going Through It because of a recent event and Arthur is trying to get him to open up.
“Because I don’t think you want to keep it all inside.”
Tagging @lady-of-the-spirit @dream-beyond-the-fantasy @ormymarius @mathiwrites @vexic929 @negative-speedforce @seek--rest @abcd-em @sonickedtrowel and @daughter-of-melpomene
thanks @goldheartedchaoticdisaster
"That is so fucked up." Gina playfully smacked Siv on the back of the head. "You're fucked up, do you know that?"
(I don't actually know that many people, so let's see...)
Thanks @negative-speedforce !
“Do you think he’s merciful enough to stop and listen to his older brother?”

@wayward-thrawn @shards-of-silver @jyou-no-sonoko19 @empress-violetlight @admiral-arelami @bluechissbrain @heathtrash @hovercraft79
Thank you @hydr0phius!
This is from the Stella Caeli, which should have been finished 6 months ago. 😬
“A silencing spell!”
I can’t tell you how happy I am that it was this sentence, and not the absolute run-on a few lines up.
I’ll tag @emiline-northeto @curlywitch14 and @bitchbrisket if they’d care to play. And anyone else that wants to.
Writer Asks
I love doing these! They hardly ever come around anymore and I miss these. Thank you @bitchbrisket for sending this my way.
- How many works do you have on AO3?
- 36
- What’s your total AO3 word count?
- 664,309
- What fandoms do you write for?
- Mostly The Worst Witch 2017, but there’s also a couple of Bletchley Circle fics on there, as well as an unpublished Xena and a Rosemary and Thyme wip.
- What are your top five fics by kudos?
- Divine
- Into the Great Wide Open
- One Thing Leads to Another
- Ghost
- Winter Song
- Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
- I try to always comment. Comments are a gift and I want to recognize the time someone took tell me they liked my work. Plus, I love talking about writing and stories and all that.
- What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
- Life has enough angst already, I don’t need to add to it with my fics. I much prefer a happy ending. That said, since I’ve left everyone hanging on Stella Caeli for 6 months (I’m so sorry!) and it’s at a disaster cliffhanger, it would be that. I am almost done with the next installment, though, so hopefully soon it won’t be angsty either.
- What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
- Maybe Divine? That’s the last part of Hecate’s Summer Playlist. Either that or An Uncertain Spring
- Do you get hate on fic?
- I haven’t yet.
- Do you write smut?
- It probably comes as a surprise to most of my readers, but yes. Just not in any of the stuff I’ve written for TWW or posted on AO3
- Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
- Not really, though I do enjoy letting Rosemary and Thyme make a cameo every now and then. I’m not against them, just haven’t done it.
- Have you ever had a fic stolen?
- I don’t think so.
- Have you ever had a fic translated?
- Not that I’m aware.
- Have you ever co-written a fic before?
- No, but Sparky probably deserves a co-writing credit for all of the work she’s put in to my fics.
- What’s your all-time favourite ship?
- This is a toughie. Certainly, Hecate Hardbroom and Pippa Pentangle – or Hecate and Ada Cackle – or Hecate and Julie Hubble. Honorable mentions include Jean McBride and Millie Harcourt, Xena and Gabrielle, Jenny Flint and Madame Vastra, Rosemary and Thyme, Lady Hardcastle and Flo, SuperCorp, Laventon and Cyllene… The list really could go on.
- What’s a WIP you want to finish but probably won’t?
- Probably my first fic – a massive crossover with characters from everywhere, a healthy dose of Mary Sue-manship, a bizarre premise that turned out to be not so bizarre when six months or a year after I started it, Galaxy Quest sort of had the main plot point.
- What are your writing strengths?
- I feel like dialogue is what I do best, followed by plotting.
- What are your writing weaknesses?
- Action sequences. They feel very stilted to me.
- Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
- Sure, write it. I've had bilingual characters.
- First fandom you wrote for?
- Not counting that first atrocity, Xena and Gabrielle – though technically it’s a Mel & Janice one.
- Favourite fic you’ve written?
- That is like picking a favorite child, isn’t it? Well, I shan’t be in denial about it. Hecate’s Summer Playlist holds a special place in my heart, closely followed by An Uncertain Spring and All Roads Lead to Home.
If you'd like to play, I'll tag @emiline-northeto @curlywitch14 @hydr0phius @cassiopeiasara and anyone else who'd like to join in.

Dammit cbbc now I need an episode or a fic of HB being finger wiggly adorable dork while dishing out advice on working hard and nails.
This old post randomly got a couple of likes out of the blue today. So shameless plug that I did indeed write said fic. With my own little astro boy

it absolutely is! tumblr is just a bit behind because it’s so easy to get burnt out in such a small fandom 🥹 but join us!!!
