And we're BACK you sexy, sexy thangs! Woohoo! Welcome to Arc 8.2! We're going to be switching between Fight!Raika back in the Republic of Morae, and Nerd!Raika, with some peeks at the others in between! Maybe a few Interludes here and there, but I'm planning to keep arc 8 still very Raika-cen...

The real world is where the monsters are.
Alrighty, we've reached the end of the INTRAMUSCULAR arc! I feel like it's either skip a moment or let myself get ground down, so it's time to move ahead. We don't need to see Ilia's next day at work- we can dive straight into some more Divine Visions and some fucked up small town shenanigans...
2025-02-17 03:10:46 +0000 UTC View PostAnd back again! I'm getting faster about it! Training myself like a good student of Pavlov and it's actually helping me more easily decide / dictate when and how I write. It's becoming... not easy, but easier to engage, in a sense. I'll let you know how it t...
2025-02-14 04:08:47 +0000 UTC View PostAnd we're back! I'm kind of liking the alternating? Offers an organic point to take a day off (day between each story) while allowing me to build up a bit of feeling, I think, for each story as it goes. I think I'll keep it up for now!
And as proof, here's the new chapter! The ...
2025-02-13 06:09:05 +0000 UTC View PostI have got to start writing shorter chapters! It's not fair! I wanna get a backlog! I want to get 5+ more chapters ahead of the curve, instead, here I am gifting you all these juicy 3k+ word chapters on the regular! Very poor monetizing, me. Ah well. Gu...
2025-02-11 04:55:24 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a while since we saw Raika being politically clever! She's not exactly savvy I think, but clever? Well that's her to a T, ain't it? Didn't quite manage two chapters today, but got a head start on tomorrow's, which should be the last RfR chapter before we swap back to VISCERAE for a ...
2025-02-10 04:06:24 +0000 UTC View PostHaving fun with these titles, just as I'm having fun with this fight! It's nice to see just how tough Raika is, and this whole arc is kind of her coming back to her roots as a melee fighting regenerator, with all the weaknesses that entails. Can't wait to see how we apply this back to her ent...
2025-02-08 23:54:08 +0000 UTC View PostOh gods I missed her so much! I missed her so fucking much! Oh gods, my baby, my wubby, my precious murder monster beloved! Raika's back! Expect a good few days of Raika, mirroring the last few of Ilia, and I can't wait to explore why and how this part ...
2025-02-08 05:21:36 +0000 UTC View PostIt's so late! Aaah! But it's fine! I slept in real hard this morning! So here! Chapter!
We go from the world-shattering depths of eldritch horror to the far more mundane and infinitely more pervasive horrors of the threat of brutality from everyday authority figures! Yippee! Wo...
2025-02-06 07:24:25 +0000 UTC View PostChapter one of two for the day! I WILL achieve further backlog tonight, this I swear! In the meantime, enjoy Ilia's supremely fucked up day-to-day as she recovers from being dead and begins work on using her "powers" here in the real world!

2025-02-04 03:02:49 +0000 UTC View PostIt's quite late, and I will NOT be staying up to write a second one, but I'm glad I got the chapter out. The 21-ahead lead remains for now, and tomorrow we'll hop back to VISCERAE to try and push that backlog a bit further ahead!

2025-01-31 05:19:20 +0000 UTC View PostNot even young masters, but slapping down arrogant assholes high on their own supply is absolutely on the list of xianxia tropes that can be very fun to play with! Raika, even effectively disarmed from most of her arsenal, is not at a level that she can...

2025-01-30 01:26:12 +0000 UTC View PostWhat a milestone, babes. Chapter 300, and after a week-long hiatus! Woof. This felt good to write, but I did have to go back and read a few chapters to re-familiarize myself, even after such a short break! Had a lot of fun with it, and I think it's one of my favorites. Welcome to one of the t...
2025-01-27 04:36:40 +0000 UTC View PostFirst time in a while I've worked until this late, but I'm done! I wanted the chapter a bit longer, but I can decide later if I want to swap over to some detailed buildcraft shit or if I wanna do a lil timeskip, we'll see! Maybe both, who knows! Either way, toodles! See y'all soon.
Second day... second chapter... well. Me oh my. I suppose I might have one more chapter in me for today. Why not? Let's see. Let's find out.
I'm feeling... hungry. Antsy. Let's see what I can make of that.

I'm faaairly certain I repaired the issues with my medication, if the last few days of recovery are good indication, but... well, fingers crossed! This one came out a bit shorter than I'd like, but the original version was way too short, so I fe...

The Breach remains an ongoing issue for both sides, and while no one has yet committed proper war-ending forces to the struggle, that doesn't mean that there isn't a lot to experience there, and a lot to learn from. Welcome back aga...

I'm figuring out my routine some and having a really good time, I think I figured out some of what was distracting me and keeping me from focusing. We're going to have a few chapters dashin...

2025-01-16 02:10:13 +0000 UTC View PostFUCK IT! I feel like writing more Viscerae! I want to pull ahead! I want to have a backlog! Graaaah! This is the earliest I've put out a chapter in a while, and I intend to capitalize on that energy like a good lil american (ugh), which means it's time to push forward for more!
2025-01-15 20:00:08 +0000 UTC View Post
As promised, the second chapter! I... don't know why writing has been so slow. Sorry, y'all. I guess I'm still figuring some stuff out outside the writing as well. I'll keep aiming for a pick-me-up on the writing front, but wish me luck either way?

I'm excited for the title where I get to talk about breaking it.

2025-01-10 23:31:47 +0000 UTC View PostA bit of a play on the "frog in the well" type thing! Raika's a big girl, capable of causing big girl problems, but she's still years away from being a world-eater. At least, not when it's a world this big, full of so much stuff that can bite back. We're nearing the big leagues, approaching t...
2025-01-10 06:15:59 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, peeps, my lovelies- as it turns out, Raika did leave a good impression! Or a halfway decent one, anyways. Strong enough to be impressive, but able to talk- and annoy some of our younger Divine Beasts, lol. Love me this snake-baby whiner.
