@bogeymanviz.bsky.social"Eh, I don't know, my mental archive of pop-culture references developed over teenage years spent trying to prove I was one of the nerds? More seriously, tough, I'd say that I never give up, I am a fast learner, and I'm pretty observant. Why I went into law school, after all!"
@bogeymanviz.bsky.social"You want my driver's license while you're at it? Hah, I kid. 24 years old, cis woman, 5'4", dad's Scottish, mom's Métis, blue eyes, grey hair, blood type terror-positive because when I died I came back as a closet monster. Should've probably lead with that fact, eh?"
@bogeymanviz.bsky.social"Much less complicated, this one. I'm bi, figured that out in high school. I mean, I'm a forever DM who played bass guitar in an indie rock band. Embrace the steriotype."
"As for my author, she knew she was bi when she started writing me. Didn't know she was a "she," though, hah!"
@bogeymanviz.bsky.social"Oh jeeze, *that* depends on who's asking. I guess my business cards say 'Mackenzie Bedford, Champion,' friends and family call me Mac, the Powers-that-Be call me Fringe of the Dark Below, my last target called me 'THE FUCKING SHADOW WITH RED EYES AND CLAWS.' It's complicated."
@bogeymanviz.bsky.socialI've been wanting to do this all month, but I've been putting it off 'cause of, well, back-to-school season stress et al.
But let's see if I can't knock a few of these out and get back into the vibe of writing my OG occult detective, Fringe!
@isaacxisaac.bsky.social"I do not have many disputes with my author, actually. I do not care about morality, victory, or if I suffer. I care about aesthetic and narrative—so I accept his doings as long as the story is good.
One exception: is it TRULY necessary to give me such trouble finding a hunk!? 😩"

"Yo, what the shit man? You like, consciously decided give me a shitty high school life? What the fuck is wrong with you!? You think it's like, edgy or whatever? Deliberately tormenting a fucking pre-teen?"
@wreybies.bsky.socialTourr'di: There are lots of other characters in this story. Why is all the drama landing in my lap?
Me: You used to be a side character, and then you asked for a better part, and I agreed you should have a better part. Better parts come with lots of drama.

“EL.”
*gulp* yes Cole
“Stalking is bad. How could you let Amon just get away with that with no consequences?”
It wasn’t planned, it just kind of happened.
“Tsk, youd better send him to therapy at least. He fucking needs it.”
🫡 If I do will you finally let me write again?
“…”

Tiferet snaps out a manic laugh. "Oh, please - what could I POSSIBLY be upset about? Surely not the death of my beloved - or the quite painful breakup! No, those added DRAMA. And I certainly wouldn't have preferred to live my life quietly as a seamstress - no, the 300 years of

Micah: (folds arms, swallows hard. His voice cracks as he speaks) “The chapter called The Fire. Why?”
@theeldervampire.bsky.social#QueerCharChat Avery: "Excuse me, Gabe? Can I call you Gabe? I think it was very mean that you kept Tristan away from Eden Hollow for so long. You had me worrying that he didn't love me anymore for so long. 🥺 Why would you do that?"
@rhysackhurst.bsky.socialLu: Um...I don't know, what made you decide to focus on us specifically?
Sid: Hey, follow-up question. Is this "Distant Observer" or "I'm a Sadist" situation here with this whole thing? Because just writing what you see is *very* different than making it up for--⬇️

Well, I don't know that I'm mad at her for anything since she's essentially just writing what I tell her to write, metaphorically .. but, maybe I'd ask why the twins and my Dad knew that I was Omega and didn't tell me, but ... 🧵
@annavernerauthor.bsky.socialWilken: I went through so much already, did I really need an arrow? It would have been nice to have met Ilak without the pain. You are a horrible person!
Anna: That wasn't me.
Wilken: who's to blame then if not you?
Anna: they thought you needed a push.
Wilken: I can guess. Sigh
@sainiku.northsky.social“Any plot point of my choosing?”
Jane spends a long time thinking about what to say.
“In the future, at… the end of Book 3… Why-… W-Wait! Come back! Please! We can talk about this!“
@glwalkerauthor.bsky.socialBetti: I mean, any that really hurt Handsome, which was a lot. But also those things probably wouldn't have made us close at all, so a little conflicted there. She did at least not make me so much of a monster as I was. But I'd also like to talk about my backstory...
Me: which one?

@wildkitfox.bsky.socialWhy would you create a world with so much suffering?
