    Chapter 1

    WHAT! KAGE!?! !? ! WHAT! First btw—I have fulfilled my duties for 2024 and can rest in peace.
  2. Werewolf pool boys. I actually do have a boy-turned-werewolf—and thusly (I love that word) becoming a part of the cool people at school—story on the backburner! I have no idea how to work pool boys into it. What a convoluted sentence. I banish you, parentheticals!
  3. I’ll write about those next then! (Not really… 😫)
  4. Poolboys should be its own fiction category on GA.
  5. You love your Hello Fresh. All those dishes look nice!!! I would just skip making them every day until the ingredients went bad >< Maybe this is a good idea to try again for 2025 The Germans thank you by the way, they are from Berlin (where I live).
  6. You would be correct, sir.
  7. Ah, our youth. I think I was the only out (being outed vs. doing it on my own, so… "yay") gay guy there. Fun times!
  8. Hahahaha. That is so funny. But yes, you will now see the difference between those who know what a mailinglist/listserv pre-2000 is and those who don't. It's a generational thing. I grew up with dialup Internet. Kids these days think "Wi-Fi" is "The Internet". 🛜 😂
  9. My exploration today reminded me that the quality of writing on this site is just exceptional compared to other places. And the barrier to entry (going past the Moderation Team for the first few chapters/stories) is not even that high. I would never compare my writing to those people you listed or those here I help edit (Hi 🍑), but I'm proud of my assembly of words. Now even more so. Haha. Learning every day! And I had Latin in school! For 7 years. Catholic school…
  10. Oh Cassie… never again would I go back to that place, it was a dark moment in my day. There's something worse even called Tapas but I don't want to be reminded of it.
  11. Regarding poems from above, I really like them. But not as standalone things for me. I seem to be able to fit the voices (real voices) in my head into such a form. Doing it as an homage to a work I like? Sure! It looks like this in my head: But I do like to intersperse some poems in my writing, just to… mystically foreshadow things that are going to happen. It's a very blunt device, and I deserve no praise for it. But I fear people are not reading them properly. They basically reveal it all and prove I actually do have a coherent plot that is working towards an end. 😂
  12. Now with my rant over, I realize it's just a change in times… and maybe just not for me. 💜

    Chapter 1

    I'm dying here… hahaha. 😂
  15. I packed my bags to go on an adventure and … browsed the Internet. Everyone had been talking to me about Wattpad for stories, but I never really checked it out. So I went there, LGBTQ+ category… okay… Fantasy… alright… Werewolves (my thing I guess?). And now I feel old. Why are literally all famous stories there written in the weirdest first person PRESENT TENSE? Is that what (young?) people read nowadays? I don't like this timeline, can we please go back to liking actual quality? It's like the words don't even matter anymore. Please help me. Help. Thank you for participating in this rant. I'm baffled. I wish everyone a happy Monday. 💙
  16. I did that after chapter 4 Take care, my friend. This was a very pleasant read.
  17. That's very funny 😂
  18. I have paws and I can if it becomes necessary!
  19. And now there's a boat! You two should work in intelligence, your conversations are really hard to decipher 😁
  20. I binged this story this weekend. It doesn't happen often. Morningstar: The Malaise lives off of its incredibly charming and impeccably written characters. The pacing is on point, and the plot is very well rounded to just leave you wanting for more with each chapter. Are there tropes? Oh hell yeah, but this story does them justice. Like any good shifter story, this is about love and community. It's about cherishing the traditions that come with a bloodline just as much as the family we choose for ourselves. Blood can be strong, but love trumps all.
  21. I'm just very happy right now and I wrote this for you: Beneath the stars, where whispers heal, Kellar’s touch turns wounds to steel. Tobyn, his flame, fierce yet kind, Guides his heart, his soul aligned. A healer’s howl, a guardian’s light, Together they pierce the velvet night. Through shadowed trials, their spirits blend— Alpha and mate, no storm can end.
  22. It's a trope, it's predictable, and yet I was very much surprised, because it's all so believably written. Thanks
  23. BOOK 2 CONFIRMED.
