Good day, everyone. I am opening up my first literature commissions! I like to think that I can write pretty well, and I've received a lot of positive feedback on it, so I felt that this would be a good idea. Now, as this is my first go around, I'll only be opening up five slots this first time.

I accept cash (over PayPal), trades for art (if I like your style), and certain adoptables/closed species (mainly Shi'vali for now). I price things in USD, as that's the easiest for everyone (I live in Canada, however). For those wondering what Shi'vali I'm interested in, go to this journal entry here.

Can do 1k word stories within a few hours, depending on what information you give me up front - I strive to maintain quality above all else, so I will make any and all edits and rewrites necessary for customer satisfaction. If you want me to write one or more of your characters, please provide me with a link to their bio(s)/profile(s)/any applicable information. If the story is to be a fan story of a fandom I am not familiar with, please provide me with a link to the wiki and give me some time to do extensive research.

I reserve the right to refuse to do a commission I feel uncomfortable with, but I am generally very jaded when it comes to many things. I can, for example, do hardcore torture of most types, if that is what you want. However, I refuse to do hardcore porn, unrealistic fetish stories, and anything related to those two categories. Anything else, I will inform you of upfront if I feel I won't be able to write the story.

You can request that I include one or more of my own characters in a story if you wish, but keep in mind that I will hold true to my character(s). I will also do my best to hold true to the essence of yours, no matter what else the story contains.


Now that the massive infodump is over, you're probably wondering what my prices are. Well, given the nature of my writing, there's really only one:

$10 USD per 1k words. I know this probably seems like a bit much, but it is a reflection of the quality I strive for in my work and the effort I put into it. If I overshoot the word count you wanted, then you get the 'extra words' for free (though tips are very much appreciated).


As for how long you can expect the commission to be completed, please keep in mind that I do commissions in the order I got them. Each 1k words may take me anywhere from half an hour to several hours, depending on my muse, the information provided, and the plot of the story. Also keep in mind that RL may get in my way, so please do be patient.

Also, I am currently on a computer that often BSODs because of a failing harddrive. As such, I may be more delayed than my normal pace, due to the interruptions. I am also busy at times, as I have other obligations I must also fulfill. If I feel that I cannot complete your commission within a reasonable timeframe, I will send you a note to keep you updated.

If I feel I cannot complete your commission at all, then I will send what I have completed over to you for possible approval, and ask only $5 per 1k words instead.


If you approve my writing, completed or incomplete, then I shall post it up on my DA and give you the link to it. I will also give you permission to repost it anywhere, even on your own DA account, so long as you credit me as the writer - you can make minor alterations to it, but I ask that you make no major changes.


And last but not least, thank you for reading through this long splap of words. ^.^' I know it's pretty long, but I felt it best to bring up everything up front to minimize possible misunderstandings, and so you know exactly what you are getting into.


Available slots:

  1. Artha-Demon - Pending (part 1 and 2 of 3 completed)
  2. nocturnalowlet - Pending (part 1 of 2 completed)
  3. Jenndragon - Pending (part 0 of 14 completed)

8 min read
I was tagged by: Medral 

Rules:
1. Choose some of your OCs
2. Make your OCs answer these questions
3. Tag other people
4. Add one question of your own.


I choose...ah, I think I'll do Taeniel, Luxifer, and my newest character Akomre. Because I can't choose between them. X'D



-How old are you?

Luxifer: Thirty-five this August.
Taeniel: Twenty-two.
Akomre: Twenty-seven.

-Do you want a hug?

Luxifer: chuckling If you want to hug me, you can.
Taeniel: simply opens his arms invitingly and inclines his head
Akomre: I'd rather not.

-Have any bad habits?

Luxifer: Occasionally being annoying on purpose, trolling people. It's amusing.
Taeniel: Drinking waaay too much coffee, but it's not like it can hurt me.
Akomre: Getting up at an asinine hour of the morning, I've been told.

-You a virgin?

Luxifer: I am not, far from it.
Taeniel: Depends on if you count virtual reality 'training' in 'bedroom tactics.'
Akomre: No.

-Have any kids?

Luxifer: None yet, though I would not mind one or two in the future.
Taeniel: No, and I'm not sure I can even have any. My fertility is questionable, given what I am.
Akomre: No. I don't think I'd want to bring any into this world, either.

-Favourite food or drink?

Luxifer: Chocolate and red wine.
Taeniel: Chocolate and coffee.
Akomre: Very rare steak, just this side of bloody. I also like milk and water.

-Killed anyone?

Luxifer: I am a highly trained assassin. You can draw the right conclusion from there.
Taeniel: A few people, many, many more in virtual reality training.
Akomre: Joined an assassin and theives' den for a while, killing people was unavoidable.

- Hate anyone?

Luxifer: Some.
Taeniel: An entire group called the Yvende. My creators.
Akomre: Not sure anymore whether I love or hate my twin brother.

-Any secrets?

Luxifer: Plenty, none of which I'm telling you.
Taeniel: A few, like everyone else.
Akomre: Who doesn't have secrets?

-Love anyone?

Luxifer: I love my family. That is all I need.
Taeniel: Haven't really found anyone yet aside from myself. I can still care about others, I've just not had reason to of late.
Akomre: Used to love my twin for certain, now I'm not so sure. I also loved my parents with all my heart. There've been some girlfriends and boyfriends along the way, but nothing's really turned out and the relationships were brief. The only one I really have now is Chiasa, my partner, protector, and closest friend. Wouldn't consider her a romantic prospect, though.

-What is your job?

Luxifer: Assassination, political spy work, double agent... Used to volunteer for environmental cleanup as well.
Taeniel: Ace pilot and highly trained bodyguard...and military shocktrooper if necessary.
Akomre: Sorceror, thief, occasionally hitman or hired mercenary.

-Favourite season?

Luxifer: Spring and autumn.
Taeniel: Spring.
Akomre: Autumn.

-Who's your best friend?

Luxifer: My brother, Áedán.
Taeniel: Used to have one, then was betrayed and learned he was just a programmed shell. Haven't had one since.
Akomre: Chiasa.

-Hobbies?

Luxifer: Swimming, reading, for the most part.
Taeniel: Flying, reading, watching the news.
Akomre: Whittling, nighttime strolls.

-What are you going to do when this tag is over?

Luxifer: Are you referring to this abrupt and odd querying? In any case, I will be going back to what I was doing previously, as I am on-mission.
Taeniel: Fly, read, or nap, probably. Or I might work on my plans, but I like what leisure time I allow myself.
Akomre: Patrol the forest nearby or hunt.

-What is your eye colour?

Luxifer: I have central heterochromia, so amber around the pupil, and teal and blue around that. smiles If you'll look closely, you'll see the amber almost looks like a starburst.
Taeniel: Deep purple with silver flecks - I am not natural.
Akomre: Golden amber.

-Are you good? Or bad?

Luxifer: Morally ambiguous, really.
Taeniel: I follow my own path. Whether it is good or bad is a matter of perspective and philosophy.
Akomre: I really don't know, and can't bring myself to care too much anymore.

-If you could do anything right now what would it be?

Luxifer: Make it so that my family can relax without fear.
Taeniel: Knowledge and absolute certainty that I do, indeed, possess a soul of my own.
Akomre: The family that I remember back, just with Chiasa as a new addition.

-What is your biggest fear?

Luxifer: seems to consider something for a while Being ignored and alone for a very long time.
Taeniel: Being made a mindless slave.
Akomre: I...I don't know...

-Does your name have a special meaning?

Luxifer: smirks My first name means 'light-bringer' or 'light-bearer' depending on interpretation. My full name means 'radiant, glorious light-bearer of the flaming sword.'
Taeniel: Not particularly. pauses Yet.
Akomre: It's Infernal, and hard to translate directly, but refers to the core of a brilliant blast of light and fire.

-Any siblings?

Luxifer: Four sisters, one older and three younger, and one younger brother.
Taeniel: None that I'm aware of.
Akomre: A twin brother and two younger sisters.

-Where do you live?-

Luxifer: Terra. I move around a lot, so that's the best you're getting.
Taeniel: I don't really have a home, so it's really just place to place.
Akomre: Shimora, currently, though I was born to a different world entirely. Specifically Alluani.

-Do you find yourself attractive?

Luxifer: smirks But of course.
Taeniel: grins I'd have to be blind not to, look at these wings!
Akomre: I've never given it any thought, really. I just know that I'm an unclean.

-What's the stupidest thing you've ever pulled off?

Luxifer: A prank on my superior officer, which I did with my brother while seriously drunk.
Taeniel: Pulling up from the ground at the last possible second, in a deliberate dive to skim the ground.
Akomre: Trying to tightwalk across a clothes line when I was six. I'm lucky I have wings.

-What is your Dream Job?

Luxifer: Anything political, but detective work is also good.
Taeniel: Anything involving freedom and flying.
Akomre: I had one, but I've since forgotten.

-What do you consider your greatest talent or strength?

Luxifer: My clairvoyance.
Taeniel: My flying ability, whether in a plane or under my own power.
Akomre: My flexibility.

-Do you believe in god(s)?

Luxifer: Yes.
Taeniel: I'm agnostic.
Akomre: I'm aware that they exist, but not really religious myself.

-Have you ever wanted to fly?

Luxifer: I don't mind taking plane trips, but I'm neutral towards it.

Chirun's Art Raffle by SoulCrystal214
Art is (c) chirun and posted in this journal at the artist's written behest in his Art Raffle rules.



A wonderful artist I've been watching is hosting an art raffle! It's mainly for watchers, but new watchers can participate just fine. :) Chirun does good work, you just need to go here, post a comment after reading the rules in the description, and then you're set.

I'd get all eloquent and fancy with advertising, but unfortunately I'm not terribly good with that. X'D

Good day~ I am currently looking for a few Shi'vali genos, though I'm afraid I can only pay in literature right now. I'm willing to also look at imports, if they have what I am looking for.

Genos I am interested in:

Male/female ivory or ivory creme, preferably Hinshu or Feral. Willing to accept inbred if blind only. Pangare is a bonus, but so is plain.

Male/female plain ivory Ko'kumai.

Male/female lavender, preferably Hinshu or Feral. Willing to accept inbred with blind, infertile, or spinal deformities, will consider brachycephalic depending on the rest of the genos.

Male/female ivory russian, with overo underside and either brindle or lashed. Cherubian mutation a bonus. Willing to accept blind inbred, but no other inbred traits (must be fertile).


General things I'm looking for:

Siamese
Stripe
Stardust
Ombré
Silver Frosted
Thylacine
Brush
Nebula
Tabby
Blossom
Strawberry cream
Albino
Fractured
Desert
Cherubian
Crested ears/mane
Crested tails (Hinshu and Ko'kumai only)
Lamb ears
Foo ears
Silken mane
Cloud tails (on Rag'oran only)
Umbre
Ivory
Galaxy
Onyx
Blind
Lavender
Russian
Creme


Things I might consider if the geno is highly desirable:

Blush (nothing against it personally, just doesn't really fit what I am looking for).
Overo (same as Blush)
Appaloosa (same as Blush)
Shaded (same as Blush)
Obsidian (bit torn on this one).
Rabbit tails (depends on the rest of the genos).
Short tails (same as rabbit tails).
Brachycephalic (same as Blush)
Crested tails (on Ferals)


Things I will NOT consider:

Sooty (just isn't my thing)
Baboon ears (really doesn't look right on cats to me, and bothers me when I look at it - if you like it, great, but it's not my thing).
Crested tails (on Rag'oran).
Cloud tails (on any but Rag'oran)


Anything not mentioned in one of these three categories does not influence my decisions either way. I have a thing for Ferals specifically, but am willing to look at all builds/breeds.

Elementals.

1 min read
A friend of mine and I are creating some original fiction together. Thus far, though, the best name we've come up with for it is The Elementals. XD Just commenting here as some kind of update, as I don't really have much to say right now.

On an unrelated sidenote: I just passed my grade 11 university-prep English course. ^.^
