exciting: first snow of the season!
annoying: everyone on the roads entirely forgetting how to act even though it's above freezing and not remotely icy

here's my preview for @oe-jayvikzine.bsky.social!! preorders are open now so if you want to read the happy conclusion to this angsty snippet... you know what to do ;D

oureternityzine.bigcartel.com

A text box on a cosmic background. The top says "OUR ETERNITY" and the bottom says "JAYVIK ZINE" and "PREVIEW! PREORDERS OPEN NOV 1ST to DEC 1ST!"

The snippet in the center says:
Perhaps it was for the best that he could not die, otherwise the guilt flooding through him would have killed him on the spot.
He adjusted his spatial coordinates to set himself in front of Jayce, still kneeling, and rocked back onto his heels so that his eyes were even with Jayce’s stone face.
Viktor had no idea where to start but desperation guided his hand. He closed his eyes and sank into the arcane realm, staring out at the constellations of golden souls before him. A faint thread trailed off into the distance, anchored weakly to the physical form in front of him. Viktor grasped at the thread and yanked, hard, feeling the force travel down the line like that of a fault in the earth.
He isn’t dead. He can’t be. I’ll get him back.
Jayce’s words echoed in Viktor’s ears. For all he knew, Viktor had heard Jayce whisper them as he wrote during Viktor’s time in the chrysalis. They repeated until Viktor realized the voice speaking them was his own, layered over with his old human tone.
I can’t live in a world where he’s gone.

Colours of the Gate, Pre-order Sept 12-Oct 10
Quote from a fic below:
“It is true that with many aspects of self-discovery, the path is not always revealed to us at first. It can only come through extensive training. To improve one’s mental fortitude, the physical must be improved, as well,” Lae’zel said sagely.

Gale blinked. “Why, Lae’zel, that’s surprisingly nonviolent advice from you.”

“Alternatively, one may capture a member of the local populace and interrogate them mercilessly for information as to get the lay of the surrounding land,” Lae’zel added. Gale ran a hand down his face and sighed.

The Dark Urge almost wished it could all be revealed with a little light torture, but that was the old them.

it's my turn to post a preview of what I've written for @galefanzine.bsky.social! i've had a great time working on this NSFW piece between Gale and the Dark Urge and can't wait for everyone to read the rest.

a small donation to charity and the full zine can be yours - preorders are open now!

Text on a purple backdrop bordered in gold. The top says "One with the Weave" followed by the following text excerpt:
“Do we truly trust the word of an unnamed wizard who couldn’t even get published?”
“That’s a little elitist, don’t you think? Very wizardly, thinking someone isn’t worth listening to unless they’re published,” the Dark Urge drawled. “The lady says we need to fuck. Seems harmless enough, we may as well try it.”
Gale sputtered. “That’s not- We can’t just-”
Pre-orders open July 7th - August 31st.

Screenshot of a work on AO3. The ship is Jayvik from arcane but the work is a dragonriders of pern au. One shot.
Title: affectation
Summary: Rioth was going to rise to mate soon, which meant Viktor was fucked.
Well, if he’d been home at the crafthold, there would certainly have been other dragons from the nearby Weyr for Rioth to mate with and then both they and Viktor would be getting fucked, the back of his mind supplied helpfully. Viktor groaned and ran a shaking hand down his face. Here he was, trapped in the middle of nowhere with a dragon that had decided to go into heat eight Turns late with no other sapient beings around to do anything about it.

or: Viktor's dragon, Rioth, had never risen to mate in all the Turns they'd been bonded. It wasn't the only unusual thing about them, but neither minded. One morning, something was different...
