Spark In Darkness

See? Prolific

For the record I'm not sure what happened to Kyernath and I'm not sure I like it. The alien deformed and monstrous creature is what I envisaged - not this. I'm not sure I like what it has become. I'm also pretty certain it's not only been done before, but it's been done so often to the point of being tiresome.

But, I also know I don't care because it is now WRITTEN and I can now IGNORE it. And yes, I know this is why i could never be a professional writer

Pointless little drabble fic. Why? Because I'm blocked and it annoys - and I find the best way to break writer's block is to write some fiction. ANYTHING. Not politics or reality or standard blogging. Once I write one thing I can start writing again.

I also need something upbeat. Yesterday was moving but not exactly fun. And it's Samhain and ever since my coven broke up it's always been a little more depressed than it should be for me


So, random writing that makes me smile a little - but hopefully will get things ticking over in my brain. And it's been hanging around in my brain for a while now, making me smile.

Just a little drabble.

Originally this was the hawt sexing, in my head anyway. It just didn't work that way. One of the recurring tropes I hate in m/m fiction/slash and just about any genre with relationships is that when someone is depressed, upset or even outright traumatised, they have themselves some hot sexing and feel better.

I can see sex as a way to life out of a funk and maybe improve my mood - but if I'm really depressed and/or upset I'm not in the sexy mood. I also feel a little a little squicky by the non-upset partners a lot. I mean, if Richard came to me, upset, sad, confused and generally down I would think it's time for support, hugs, MAYBE cheering up (but I've ranted before about the idea of us having a DUTY to be happy). It's not a time to think "hey, he's feeling all sad and vulnerable now - time to get in his pants!" The times I've read this and felt that it's a little... predatory? Your partner's upset and vulnerable so it's time for sex?


Anyway, sexy time was called for cuddles instead :P I have more and I hope to post again today :)

This just goes to show how scatter shot my mind is at the moment. I can't stay on any project for any length of time and I am plagued by spin-offs and stupid little drabbles and endless world builders

At the minute my brain is being kicked by Seers. Well, seers, augurs, oracles and a big lot of "and there's a difference between these guys?" huh. Because I know there IS a difference but I have no clue what that is.

I'm also going to have to make a cast list and hammer down some familial relationships. I've had Caoimhe running around and she's Darren's mother and Ieuan who's Darren's father and Sian is Darren's half sister but I'm not sure if she's Caoimhe's daughter or Ieuan's (I think Caoimhe. It has a rather delicious irony). And I need to nail down what powers everyone actually HAS. I think Prisa has managed to be an Oracle, Seer, Visionary, Telekenetic AND a Telepath which officially makes her the Most Supreme Camaalis EVAH or it means I screwed up somewhere.

*pokes cast list* ah hell. This is going to be even more huge than the Huge Arse World Timeline

I had to split this up because can I hell as keep it going. Every word had to be hammered out - which is annoying because I can feel the shape of it.


Anyway, the sidekicks find a friend and look for trouble - as they do

Ahhhh inspiration at long last. This has been driving me nuts. You have no idea how often I stopped and started this

Still pushing this around, though I have a fair bit on my plate atm. Still, I shall splurge it down and poke it when I have the time

And probably a very bad spelling of anthropromorphism. Maybe if I spell it differently every time I will get it right some times.

Ok my stance:

1) Not all depictions of anthropromophic animals are linked to, involved with or in any way related to the furry community. This goes without saying. Assuming that they are is unwarrented.

2) There is a furry community and a furry identity. Some sections of this are concerned with sex. Some are not. There's diversity everywhere - but most things are misunderstood from the outside. We see things - especially different cultures, subcultures and communities - from the outside and may overemphasise a part of them misunderstand their complexity or internal diversity and generally make sweeping assumptions.

3) As to furry sex my opinion on that regards any and all sex. If all are consenting and capable of consenting then rock on and pass the whipped cream!


As to my dragony-folks:
The dragons CANNOT shapeshift except for Black Dragons (and that's more illusory than anything). The Earthmother and Skyfather created them to rule and guide the world and gave them a perfect shape for it - incognito (except for the Blacks) was never considered a part of this. Even if they could and even though they engender offspring with humans this is more through magic and ritual than hot sweaty nekkedness. Apart from anything else they are entirely different species - without magic they simply couldn't produce kids. Anyway, the dragons are the size of small planes - hot sexoring is just not thesable.

The Half-dragons can and do mate with humans - usually other members of the dragon houses - and do so in conventional fashion (nekked, sweaty, count-the-legs-and-divide-by-two fashion as Terry Pratchet would put it). Their children (quarter dragons, 1/8th dragons etc etc) gradually lose draconic characteristics with every passing generation.

In the beginning of the story, it has actually been several generations since a new Half-dragon has been born :)

One advantage of writing again? Even when I write something unrelated, it stimulates

This? Well, more drek - but it’s Spark in Darkness drek which I flung onto the page as soon as it was there because it meant it was MOVING again! PRAISE THE MUSES!

The descendents who fled to the Skyfang mountains and set up their own little nation are more properly split into 3 groups. This is grossly symplistic and needs to be fleshed out a LOT and will be majorly overhauled
