Blanket Box: Thorn

[emoslasher]

I see propergoffick do this and I, well, LOVE TALKING SO HAH. Thorn is the very wip title of a comick-y of my drow homebrew.

This Blanket Box was originally created by Pillowfort user XanthussMarduk and can be found here.

The Blankets

• Who are your main characters of your present WIP? Auuyur-Peikal, a former assassin turned bodyguard under the threat of blackmail from Auuko Okidya, a matron mother who has created alot of enemies for herself. Nalay, a very strange little drow with a taste for blood, and Toyur, a shy lower class girl who discovered she has magic and was promptly sent to the temple to train under Auuko...
• What genre is your story (get specific if you want)? Dark fantasy, probably. Idk what other genres it'd be. Was originally planning for it to be an erotica but Idk if I'll stick with that.
• Quick, you're stuck in an elevator with a stranger. Badly explain your WIP to them in one sentence Stupid elves having blood feuds with each other and a few snakes.
• When did you start writing and why? I started working on my drow a year ago now, because I originally wanted to change the drow from spiders to something else that doesn't trigger arachnophobia... and it spiralled. 
• What is your favourite book/author? Magic's pawn by Mercades Lackey. I like romantic fantasy and gay characters, ha.
• What quote from your WIP are you most proud of? Don't quite got one yet :< But a part of my story that I'm rather proud of would have to be how I manage to unknowingly write my feelings about mental illness stigma and the need to be 'strong' and independent. Alot of the characters are fucked beyond repair and they spiral  further as they deny needing help, such as Auyur as he declines more and more as he doesn't receive treatment for PTSD. 
• If you could see more fiction written about X, what would it be? More fantasy invovling transgender peoples
• What about your writing do you want to improve on most of all? Alllll of it but if I had to pick, probably the actual plot. I struggle with that a bit.

Can it involve drow and not be at least a bit erotical? I thought that was part of the point.

Also: with you on the project spiral. One thought and we're sat here a year later doing all... this...

Lol, true. I just figured I probably shouldn't attempt an erotic story. Seems harder (HA) then people might think at first. You either get a story with random, weird sex scenes or porn with some random, weird story thrown in. I can still have sex scenes, at least. I mostly just wish to write a story in which the transgender characters have sex and it's not abnormal or show in anyway that's like "LOOK, THEY'RE FUCKING?" just... normal. Please. Someone.

And yeeep, lol. Granted I did put it on pause over the year, but my mind always kept drifting back to it. I guess that's how you can tell a project's a winner, eh? 2019 IS THE YEAR OF THE DROW

I dunno either dude, I just write things and there's either some sex or some politics in pretty much every chapter. What genre's that when it's at home?

LET 2019 BE THE YEAR WE DO THAT STUFF WE WANTED TO DO
