Heya all! MercyArt was kind enough to do a funny little sketch of 'Bunny-Ben' for the Year of the Rabbit, and I just had to share. I hope y'all enjoy it as much as I do.

I hate myself for this.
Never again will I allow my mouth to make cheques my brain can't cash.
Ugh.
A year ago, just for a little bit, we hit the big goal of me embarrassing the hell out of myself by singing the Fire Emblem Heroes opening.
Now. I cannot sing. I am very self-conscious of this fact. ...

Yeah! We did it! We survived! Fuck this year, man!
Also, new preview! I don’t actually know if this is gonna stick in the final chapter, because it was an idea I had separately from the usual flow and wrote down so I didn’t forget it, but it’s cute and funny either way. I was also debating having SI!Ben ask “So, so I get to kick y...
2022-12-31 11:56:17 +0000 UTC View PostOkay. Okay, I know it's been a while, and that's absolutely on me. I had no intention of going dark for so long, but good lord, I swear to god November was trying to kill me.
I'm gonna start by saying that no, this will not be my final 'update' of 2022. I'm finishing this year on a high note... I was gonna say 'if it kills me', but l...

Hello, all! Happy Belated Halloween! Sorry for the radio-silence during October. My bad. No, this preview is not canon, but it made me laugh so I couldn't help myself.
So! Yeah. October was not so fun for me. I wrote out a big long paragraph about what's going on, but it just felt like whining, so I'll stick to the main points. Turns...

Howdy, all! I guess I owe y'all an explanation for my radio-silence over the last month. Have a gander at a little comedy I wrote earlier this week as a palate cleanser.
So, I'll start by saying that I'm happy to report I do not have cancer in my ass. XD
Long-time supporters may recall me being unwell quite often over the last ...
2022-09-26 18:42:38 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for the delay on this chapter, but it's finally done! I actually ended up adding more than I thought I would, nearly 2k extra words! Blame TheRealOG and their historical knowledge for that. So much extra content... So! If you did end up reading the draft of the previous version, I urge you to check out this one as well.
Anyway,...

Howdy all! I’m sorry for the long radio-silence again, but life has a way of kicking me in the nuts. I’ve taken to calling it the ‘Metallover Curse’.
Basically, last month myself, MinuteRice and TheRealOG all got sick. And I mean sick. Rice caught the dreaded ‘rona, and while it’s not my place to say what was...
2022-08-01 22:08:33 +0000 UTC View PostWellp, I did say I needed to get something done by the end of the month. I managed to get this draft done, but MinuteRice has been sick and TheRealOG is in the middle of their exams, so... have a draft lol.
I'm pretty sure it won't take us much longer to get a final version done, but just in case... have a gander at the first draft I...

Ha ha! I am happy to report that the next Self Insert chapter is done! Woo! The chapter is with Rice and OG and will be with y’all before the end of the month! Have one last fresh look at the chapter before it drops!
Next on the chopping block is the Three Houses Self Insert short, then Dark. Progress!
I haven’t really got a lot ...

Morning all! Long time no see, huh? Sorry, that’s my bad, but have some new Self Insert preview goodness, fresh off the press!
So I have news. I have neutral, good, and bad news.
Neutral news is that I’ve decided that if I can’t get something substantial done by the end of June, I’m putting a temporary hold on Patreon so no ...

Morning, all! Take a gander at the next Self Insert chapter. Hopefully it’s not too lewd for y’all.
So! The plan is thus: finish this Self Insert chapter, then the Self Insert Three Houses thing, then Dark, and then we’ll see. I’m getting back into the swing of things now, slowly but surely, and am actually getting back into writi...

Morning, all! Sorry for the long radio silence. And hello to all new Patrons! Sorry that Dark is inaccessible at the moment; all the current Dark chapters are attached to this post, so feel free to binge to your heart's content. Hopefully this stupid ZIP file works and I don't have to attach all thirty-odd chapters individually... Let me know if...
2022-03-29 16:18:45 +0000 UTC View PostHello, all! How we doing?
I've included a little short piece I wrote between SI!Ben and Su'ko as a little feel-good thing. I may use this as an opener for the chapter after the next, but felt it was good timing for something a little wholesome. I'm also working on a dumb little Three Houses Self Insert short cross over thing. If I can get ...

Hello, all! Good morning! ... I'm pretty sure it's morning everywhere in the world. Anyway! I'm sorry for the long radio silence, but I didn't want to post again unless I had news or something good to preview. But I have both!
Firstly, attached and as seen above, MercyArt has once again gone above and beyond and created some stunning artwo...

I really don't know why this took the better part of two freakin' months. But, it's done, we're done, it's here, and I hope y'all enjoy. Not a lot actually changed, just a few minor dialogue adjustments and some little tweaks here and there. Nothing major, but enough to make me go "ugh" every time I thou...
2022-01-24 01:03:17 +0000 UTC View PostOkay! We’re back! How we all doing? Good, I hope.
Sorry for the long radio silence. Working hospitality at this time of year is rough at the best of times, but with the rona finally spreading around my city (and my workplace, holy shit I’m amazed I haven’t caught it myself yet) it’s been made so much worse than usual. But! The Chr...

So. Writing update. Yeah, things aren’t going great on that front. I’ll have SI chapter whatever final...

Morning, all! Sorry for the radio silence last week. I was kinda preoccupied with… well, one of the worst hangovers I’ve had since I was a teenager. I’m getting too old for binge sessions. Apparently, though, I was quite the riot on the discord voice chat. Aaaaaaand then I aggressively came onto my editor MinuteRice. It was a wild ride, an...
2021-12-13 01:26:17 +0000 UTC View PostOh my god, that took so much longer than I intended it to. But! It's done. The draft is with Rice and OG, and they've been given rush orders.
I am literally uploading this the second I finished it, as promised. So it's probably rough, especially towards the end because I am running on fumes right now. But, it's done. The contents pro...
2021-12-04 03:13:17 +0000 UTC View PostSorry to spam y'all with these updates, but it was suggested on the Discord server (which is open to the public, by all means, come check it out) that we have a 'battle royale' between Ben's three 'servants' to see who is the Helper Prime between Elle, Su'ko and Gaila. I fucking loved the idea, so this is happening next chapter. Now, there's a f...

Morning, all! I am so sorry for the radio silence over the last week. I took a couple days at the start of the week to just decompress, then by the time I remembered that I needed to do an update it was already Friday. Whoops. Unprofessional, I know, I suck.

I will freely admit I am struggling with this Dark chapter. There’s three perspective shifts in it, which might be a mistake given Dark’s comparative short word count, and it’s tripping me up. I’m trying to write from...
