trying to motivate myself to work on something by going through and posting some wips, including this rather short inktober attempt from last year, which i had completely forgotten about. not gonna reveal what the au inspo is (pls feel to guess tho c:), but the prompt was "dream."
another one i completely forgot about lmao. i do remember talking with Caro about this one a bit tho; couldn't decide if i wanted to continue it as a wintersberg au or just do something original instead. was heavily inspired by this song tho; big fan of the lyrics. had more planned out i didn't get to but it was gonna be gross! :D prompt for this one was "spider" and there sure is a gross spider in it, so warning for that.
anyway, don't get to any actual necromancy here, just another opening in media res.
MAN. i have a heck of a lot of unfinished kny fic that's never gonna get finished bc i now kinda hate the manga and definitely hate the fandom, but i also still really like a lot of what i was working on back in 2019 when i still liked the series.
anyway, here's 12 pages of what was supposed to be a tanjiro-is-a-demon au and ended up being more of a genya-centric character piece. there's a tense shift after the first scene that i haven't fixed, and then the second half becomes more half-scenes with no clear chronology, but it was fun for me to reread this bc it's basically just "remember how much you loved genya and mitsuri? bc it was a heck of a lot." i also left in a note 2019-me left to myself bc i think it's funny.
warnings for: cuts off abruptly; gore/dismemberment; what's close enough to count as cannibalism (lite)
having to cobble this one together from several different inktober prompts from back in 2019: freeze, ash, and overgrown. it's akaren, and a "what if akaza forcefully turned rengoku into a demon" au, but also, you guessed it, largely an akaza-centric piece. my interest in this pairing is so lopsided bc while rengoku is fine and i like him alright, i absolutely have zero interest in him beyond his relationship with akaza lmao.
there are two akaza pov sections and one rengoku pov. think i'll leave my notes for where the second part was going to go since i don't have plans to finish it. also leaving the epigraphs bc they were very important to me at the time.
warning for: gore; cannibalism
another akaren fic that spanned multiple inktober prompts: swing and wild. it's a modern au, but in the sense that literally everything is exactly the same it just takes place in modern day japan. some notes at the end for where i was going with it.
warning for: little bit of gore
so this one i am actually determined to finish at some point!! there are a few of the fics that i wrote for these inktober prompts that mean a heck of a lot to me and this is one of them. i have enough notes left for myself that i do think i can finish this one at some point.
anyway, it's very tangentially inspired by the film Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...And Spring, but like literally only in the sense of the frame and also uhhh the Buddhism i guess. (note not only for this fic but any fics i write involving Himejima: i'm not an expert on Buddhism by any means; doing my best here tho.)
the prompt for this one was "pattern."
warning for: grief (loss of a family member); suicidal ideation; also there's some gore bc after all it is kny
