2. The Port of Biscay

Birger was always the first to rise; then Sachie, then Avery. He enjoyed the quiet of the early morning—the tittering song of whatever local birds were in the area; the crisp air, and the slice of searing red light that rimmed the horizon as the sun crested. Today was no different. Birger rose and stretched with a soft grunt, and smiled down at Avery, who remained deeply asleep. He had kicked...

Updates and Musings

This is going to be a long and rambling post, so if you don't care to read my thoughts you can just skip ahead to the bolded UPDATE towards the end~

Happy April everyone, and thank you again for another month of support! I want to take a moment to talk about how I've been feeling lately. I usually don't like opening up, especially online. Anonymity has always been more my...

The Three of Them

Happy March!

Hullo patrons~!!

We have now officially entered Part Two of TToT! I’m stoked. Did I rush the ending of that last chapter? Yeah lol. But I’m pretty pleased with it too.

I don’t know if I can manage another chapter of TToT this month, even though I’ve started it. I’m stubborn as fuck, so I’ll try. But I have a gnarly chronic illness that’s been giving me a hard time as o...

1. Chance Encounters

There was no privacy granted to Birger as he peered down at Einar’s corpse. His nude frame was draped with gold-lamé and undyed linen, palms painted crimson, open and facing up to the heavens. He was still given the proper wake as an Acolyte, despite his multiple transgressions.

The council and the remaining Grímsson clan surrounded Birger, but they provided no comfort.

He knew ...

Pirates, anyone?

Blas Váez wants Renegast's ship, the Angel's Grave.

And in an attempt to commandeer the majestic vessel, Blas nearly dies by Renegast's blade. Given a second chance at life, Blas recklessly pursues Renegast, hungry for pride-fueled vengeance, but Renegast—on his own quest for vengeance—has other plans for Blas...

Filthy Impetuous Soul. An RP with horse! (lol) Updates o...

Update~!

Hullo! Hope all is well.

I'm in better spirits! I've decided to leave Twitter for the foreseeable future, and I must say that I feel like that was the right choice for me. As someone who didn't really engage with an online landscape or social media in my teens or twenties, I don't think I was ever properly equipped to navigate a perpetually online experience (due to the pandemic)...

Switch

Avery bottoms for Birger~

Porn for porn's sake.

Enjoy! <3

CHANGE OF PLANS LOL

Ok. I have no idea if anyone reads these or even cares, but as I was walking home from work I had a… I’m not sure how to describe it, but it’s something that I (and other writers, I’m sure) experience from time to time. It’s like an epiphany, a lightning bolt of inspiration, an understanding—where pieces of your story suddenly fit and make sense and work. It’s a real rush! With th...

11. The Hermit

Two nights and three days later, Birger and Sachie finally reached the largest town in the region: Burga, a bi-cultural (a little Ourensean, a little Urnian) settlement bounded by the Terranea mountains and the Still Sea. Birger’s brother was northeast of Burga, situated in a valley before the famed mud volcanoes, and living in a cottage that he had built himself.

Birger and Sachie stop...

Long time, no see~

Hullo everyone and happy new year! I hope all is well!

I've been dealing with a lot of things these past few weeks (past month, actually). Not bad things, just new things.

The first has been adapting to a full-time office job, very much different from my part-time warehouse/barista work, as well as just...getting used to a completely different state and weather system LOL. I think I...

Welp

I was aiming to have the final chapter of part one done before the end of this month but I'm still adjusting to a full-time work schedule and I've also been set back due to some unforeseen events thanks to my whacky brain. (*￣m￣)

If I were in my twenties, I'd just hunker down with some coffee and get it done tonight, but I can't do that anymore lol, and I want to give this chapter the...

Pausing for December

Hullo!

I will be posting one more chapter (the last chapter of Part One) sometime next week. After that I will be putting payments on hold again for the month of December. 

That will give me time to sort through my Part Two outline as well as go back and edit Part One. Y’all would be saving a few bucks for the holidays as well.

Thank you for the support. I can’t ...

10. Someone You Hardly Know

“Av?” Birger said. His brows furrowed and his mouth was a tight line.

Sachie crouched down. Her face wasn’t as severe, but her eyes went round with worry. “Avery?” She gently delivered a few smacks to his cheek, but the mage remained unresponsive, fixed in his position. Birger then scowled at Sachie, though his eyes were full of questioning and concern. She had no explanation fo...

I'm back!

Hullo!

I've returned!

October was one hell of a ride. I've moved from sunny Socal to the evergreen (and cold as shit) Pacific Northwest, and now that I'm more or less situated, we can carry on with TToT! Chapter 10 will be up this Saturday, and ch. 11 will be up later this month.

Thanks for sticking around!

October Billing Pause

This month has been pretty wild, what with me getting sick, going on vacation, getting sick again, haha… and now I’m dealing with my wisdom tooth making its long overdue (and painful) appearance. Time has escaped me, and here we are nearing the end of September, and I haven’t updated with…anything? I apologize. 🙇

I’ll be posting chapter 10 (parts I and II) soon, defi...

Happy September!

It's the first and I just wanted to say thanks for the support y'all!

I'm feeling a lot better and Part One of TToT will be concluding this month with chapter 10 (I) and (II).

A few things on the horizon:

• Still aiming to do that editing bonus.
• Part Two will be commencing in October, expect more magic and "darker" themes.
• Think I might s...

9. Comatose

Things were weird after Birger and Avery had sex.

It was no one particular thing nor was anything said to prompt the uneasiness.

The two men had woken up the next morning, legs tangled and smelling of one another. After an awkward greeting and a thank you for the night before, Birger disentangled himself, dressed, and left without a word.

Avery took it as a slight.

Deter...

THE READING ROOM

I'm still sick (with something else now wompwomp) but I'm not here empty-handed!

I was inspired by Dorian's lovely art (here's their instagram) of my Knights of Fortune characters to write a little something. And even though I'm trying to keep this patreon strictly TToT for now, this takes place i...

Chapter 9 Delayed

Hullo~!

I seem to have food poisoning or caught a stomach bug of some sort and that’s thrown my writing sessions off. Chapter 9 will be posted this week and I think I’ll even have a short side story (same TToT universe but different characters) posted next week!

Sorry for the delay y’all. I’ll be back at it ASAP ✨

Take care!

Chapter 8 SFW pdf

Hullo~

Here's the safe for work (but still pretty suggestive) version of chapter eight!

This is shorter than the nsfw one, but I've added a few introspective passages to pad out the action and narrative. I like these inclusions and I'll definitely be adding them to the nsfw version during my second editing pass. Though I prefer explicit content, I don't mind a little mystery either,...

Regarding August~

Hullo!

After going over my outline for TToT, I've realized that chapter 9 & 10 will conclude Avery's part (YAY!!). 

But! Chapter 10 is very long, ahaa. Normally, this wouldn't be an issue, but I've decided to work on a personal project for the entirety of August, and I don't think I'll have the time (or brainpower) to release two full chapters. Si...

Lil' Update~

I wasn't planning on releasing chapter 8 this quickly, yet here we are! I'll be uploading a SFW version as well, for anyone that prefers a tamer fade to black sex scene. 

Chapter 8 will be the final update for July as we're nearing the end of Avery's part. I want to get a solid head start on Birger's part, which is action-heavy and thematically darker, so I'll be working on that in t...

8. Giving In (NSFW: explicit sex)

The thick clang of a wind chime roused Avery from his sleep. He blinked, eyes focusing on an unfamiliar ceiling. Unbeknownst to the mage it had been two days since the incident with Emery, and he could only recall fragments after his return from death. He remembered the night sky, strewn with so many stars, and the feeling of being cold then warm as Birger carried him into town. In fact, all Av...

7. Showdown (CW: graphic violence, death)

Avery wiped the tears from his eyes with his forearm and followed Birger, right hand motioning upwards as he exited, fixing the bell as if it had never fallen.

Sachie sighed. “Damn, that was awkward. Sorry about that.” She stood, grimacing. “Thank you so much for your hospitality, but I believe that’s our cue…”

Aalap nodded, still processing.

“Um…yeah, sorry,�...

5 months in~!

I wanted to take a moment to thank all of you for your support, it really means a lot to me and helps me stay motivated. Next chapter will be here on the 7th, but I'm also thinking of posting some bonus content as well. I think I might unearth an old/abandoned TToT vignette and show my editing process. I don't know if that'll be interesting, but if you're a writer or a budding writer it might b...

6. Dream Treading (II)

Sachie and Birger did indeed find some rabbits. They prepared them by the fire, discussing the best steel for knives while Avery lounged on a blanket, his nose tucked into a book of Galmian illusion spells.

He pilfered a few glances at Birger, watching as the knight skinned and gutted their dinner. He moved efficiently, casually talking while his hands worked. Sachie was just as practiced...

6. Dream Treading (I)

“Sachie… You’re making me sound shady,” Avery laughed, uncomfortable. “Anyways, we found our stuff and replenished our supplies. My summon was nowhere to be found, which was fine, there’s a time limit. He could only remain in this plane for so long, what with being an astral entity and all…”

Aalap was quiet.

Avery cleared his throat. “We purloined two horses and ro...

5. The Hat

“A prince!” Aalap gasped.

“Technically two,” Sachie corrected.

“Former,” said Avery and Birger in unison.

Aalap was dying to know the details and understand their stances. “I don’t think I could ever renounce that title,” he said, with no hint of prejudice. “To have two men who did though sitting before me, what a wonder.”

“It was never my mother�...

New Goals, Editing, and Updates

Hullo there.

I'm nearing the 20,000 word mark for TToT~! Not bad considering I started in March! With this pace, Part One will be completed and uploaded by August. I'm pretty chuffed, man.

I've been going back to the previous installments and editing them here and there, nothing crazy, just catching typos, adding details, and tightening sentences. I plan to give Part One a thorough ...
