finally remembered to post this here lol. the bulk of this wip was written earlier this year & then i added an additional scene for like...i think it was day three of inktober? prompt was 'boots.' the original inspo for this AU is...not something anyone will ever guess lmao, not unless i were to tell you outright; there's really not much in common beyond uhhhh swords.

the fun thing about writing this one has been the worldbuilding, which i honestly wasn't expecting to have to do much of and then i ended up 1) writing poetry and 2) coming up with a folktale on the fly. was having fun with it tho :p

quick warning for: gross bugs (parasites)

written for the April 20th prompt "a lot of boxes" for

spring_renewal. takes place during 'all i need is some sunshine' sometime after ch12 and before ch18. listened to my own fanmix on repeat while writing this, and the title does in fact come from the Pina Colada song lmao.

the prompt of course reminded me of Karl cleaning out the shed in ch12, and Karl harassing Ethan with mixed tapes he found there is something i'd been wanting to write for a while c:

Title: nobody's poet
Fandom: Resident Evil Village
Character(s)/Pairing(s): Ethan Winters/Karl Heisenberg
Content Notes: none (spoilers for the rest of 'all i need is some sunshine')
Prompt Being Filled: Any, Any, a lot of boxes [April 20th]

also available here on squidgeworld

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.

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."

aight so this one is super self-indulgent. it comes from me thinking about how the relationship that karl and ethan end up with at the end of my fic "in the spirit that i crave" would only be possible as long as ethan lost his memory, that if their roles were flipped and ethan found a karl with memory loss in a karl megamycete brain construct he'd basically go thru the whole thing all press X to doubt. he'd never trust him.

so then i thought "well, what would get him to trust/help karl?" and then thought "if he didn't recognize it was karl," which meant kid!karl, which meant i was then seriously thinking about a reverse au for my own fic. self-indulgent, as i said.

anyway here's what i have of that c:

i unfortunately have like 4 time loop fic ideas for wintersberg alone but here's the only one i've written anything for. the first bit is from inktober 2021 (the prompt was "crystal") and the second is from inktober 2022 (prompt was "bat").

Current Music: fin - Ship in a Bottle

sometime between middle and high school i read Dave Duncan's Sky of Swords and the concept of the king's blades have lived rent free in my head ever since. if you've never read any of the books it's basically a magically bound group of swordsmen sworn to protect their lord with their lives. the bond makes them want to stick very, very close, it's a compulsion, and though it will gradually wear off in time blades who have lost their lord will still sometimes go insane due to the bond/compulsion freaking out. the ritual binding blades to their lord is also pretty rad tbqh.

so anyway of course i wanted to do a knight/lord wintersberg au using blades. i have a very extensive outline for this fic but only a few excerpts; two from inktobers (2021, 2022) and one that i churned out as if possessed. they're all below the cut, in chronological order as they would appear in the fic. heisenberg's characterization in this is very much not what i typically go with. ethan's isn't really either for that matter. some dubcon elements that are not explicit/emphasized in the excerpts below but which would become very much so in the fic itself.

so the actual 2022 inktober prompt was "scallop" but i didn't like it so i grabbed "radio" from the 2020 prompt list instead. it's just a coincidence that it perfectly works with another au idea i had which was based off an article i read about re8 A BILLION YEARS AGO. don't have it on hand but it was pure speculation based on trailers/game footage released before the game itself was out and it posited that heisenberg might be an ally, and furthermore than he might be the one to have brought ethan to the village for help (this was before there was knowledge of rose i believe).

anyway that stuck with me for obvious reasons and i've wanted to do a "heisenberg pulls a castiel and harasses ethan thru electronics in order to get him to ~~be his vessel~~ the village" au and used this prompt as an excuse to write the opening.

this au is set very early after ethan and mia arrive in romania, before rose was born. eventual wintersberg.

( The first time he could distinctly remember it happening... )

another inktober prompt, this one "scurry," and i was pretty shamelessly using it to write a scene from a reverse AU i'd like to do. the premise being: entirely human/unMiranda'd karl heisenberg tracks the signal of a robot he loaned the connections out to the middle-of-nowhere louisiana and the baker house. mostly though i just like writing about swamps :V

eventual wintersberg.

( The signal was still coming through strong... )

Current Mood: busy

WIP from inktober 2022. prompt was "gargoyle" so i decided to lean into the story of St Romaine and Rouen a little bit. just a bit. i took a tremendous amount of liberties. intended to be eventual wintersberg or potentially chris/ethan/heisenberg, i haven't decided yet.

( Ethan stood right where Chris had left him... )
