Selling Sunset? Nah, we're out here selling stories... to fund ill-advised shopping sprees! Shhh, you can't shame me for my pet hoarding/TC building addiction and general shenanigans.

Life has finally taken a chill pill and I'm raring to do some more writing, so it's time to reopen! Bring me your story ideas and let's make some magic happen.

If you'd like some examples of my writing, here are some examples of commission works and my own pets! They generally show the general vibe of my writing; I definitely thrive with more creative freedom and a more flexible word count to layer/build/elaborate :). I tend to write in these little vignettes/snapshots, but I can totally work with long-form stories as well--it just isn't something that ended up reflecting in the pets I worked on.

Completed stories: My pet: Gorgon My pet: Pantheon My pet: Nerite My pet: Catastrophe For beer: Xana For Paula: Orel For seraph: LINCOLNLOOKER For Paula: Zojja For seraph: Double Feature For Paula: Ulgrana/Empyria For Rula: Resheph For seraph: Aura For atempause: Brew For Chrysariel: Ordinemon For atempause: Mend For atempause: Dovahpug For Paula: Ti-ana

I'm generally pretty flexible with writing styles and happy to work with whatever you'd like to throw at me. I'm willing to do research on fandoms to work on fanpets, but that requires a disclaimer: I will try my best, but I unfortunately might not get everything perfect. Just let me know if there's anything that you are burnin' to see in the story and we'll work together to iron out any issues. I'm usually willing to take a crack at things if I think there's a constructively narrative way to present those ideas/issues, but I might turn down prompts that touch on sensitive issues or matters that I don't think I can do justice.

Life can (unfortunately) get pretty busy and hectic, but I will try to turn commissions around in a reasonably timely manner; my usual commission turnaround is a couple weeks. If anything falls through, please just give me a nudge/gentle reminder and I promise that I will do my very best to get my act together and get your story to you!

Current Shop Status Slate: 1. 2. 3.

How this process is going to work Alright, let's get this roast a-cooking, shall we?

  1. Send in your request: if there's other folks still waiting for their stories, you'll get slotted in after them
  2. Rough drafts: I can pretty comfortably write ~200-300 words of a strong early draft every few days in my busy schedule. Based on the length of story you're asking for, that should give you a projection of how quickly I can get the early brainstorms and drafts to you. However, I appreciate being given more time to work on them because I can get really busy with university/job/life things and can be kinda picky about the quality of my work. Rest assured, I want to present you a story that you'll love and be proud to put on your pet's profile!
  3. Revisions: It'll generally take me about 3 days to make whatever changes you'd like. As covered in the pricing sections, minor changes won't affect pricing, but more extensive edits (i.e. restructuring, rewriting) exceeding 500 words will affect prices. Feel free to let me know what you think about the early version and let me know if there's anything you're unsatisfied with. I want to make sure that you love the writing piece and feel that it represents your pet well.
  4. Once you're happy with where we've landed, I'll set up a lot where you can offer the payment. Once payment goes through, I'll sMail a link with a version with the appropriate coding for alignment/paragraphing/formatting/etc. I'm big on using certain formatting to draw emphasis to key ideas/phrasings, so there'll be two versions in the document I send: a plain text formatted version and one with some snazzy bells and whistles (like certain phrases in different colors/bolded/italtics/etc).
  5. Make sure your pet gets their shiny story! Please make sure to add credit where it's due :)
Pricing
Character Sketch (500 Words or less): 15 mil or 150 csc

Standard Story (501-1,200 Words): 35 mil or 350 csc

Long Story: 1,201-2,500 Words: 75 mil or 750 csc

Complex Story: 2,501+ Words: ... hmm give me a pitch and we'll chit chat

Minor edits will be covered by the overall cost, but larger restructuring changes and rewrites are subject to pricing adjustment.

Tell me what you want! The general request format is: Pet name: Personality: What's their point of view? What's their vibe? What parts of their character do you really want to shine in the writing piece? Character preferences: Are there any likes/dislikes to mention or highlight? Point of view: 1st (told as I did...), 2nd (told as you did...), 3rd (told as [name] did...) Setting(s): Where does the story start? Will it stay in one place or will it be moving between locations? Is there a specific era or time period that you want to be centered on? Other key characters: Is there anyone else in the story? What do you want interactions to look like? What are the other characters' significance? What are they like personality-wise? Key story events: What's happening? Here's where you can tell me where we start, where we're going, and the kind of ending you want. Is there something you specifically imagine for the climax of the story? Tell me right here! Key details: This is where you can let me know any other specifics you want. Do you want to highlight specific fashion in your story? Is there a specific genre you envision for it (i.e. sci-fi, historical fiction, fantasy, etc) Are there any key story beats you would really love to hit on in the story? Unload whatever--the more the better :p It gives me more to work off of. Preferred length: This is just so I have a good idea of how to pace the story and when to wrap it all up!

Hi ! It'll take me ages to actually hunker down and write this story, so I might as well pop in here and ask you to do it! I'll do a lil sketch of what I'd like and then fill out the form~

Ruse - Based on Ruskala, also my battle pet (and gourmand and everything else), a strong, scorned woman, heart of gold for animals/creatures of the lake/forest/etc, hatred for humans, namely men ofc. Everything else is open to whatever strikes your fancy, I tend to just word vomit on stories and go off on wild tangents, so feel free to do whatever works for you best. My starting point for the story would be "Fury burns, and then simmers," so work with that, if you'd like! She's going to be a graveyard/hydrus neela, and here is her human HA form by beer

Pet name: Ruse Personality: Warm to creatures of the world, cold to humans Character preferences: water/moon/foresty stuff Point of view: Whatever hits home for you Settings: In a forest with a lake/river/water feature Other key characters: A former lover maybe? Key story events: Literally whatever you'd like! Key details: -^ Preferred length: Sketch to standard story, based on however you feel the writing flows!

Hi :) Sorry to reply a bit late--I worked a 12 hour shift at the hospital yesterday when I saw on my phone that you'd requested a story. I wanted to fully sit down and respond from my laptop instead haha.

I'm currently in a process helping another user with a story, would it be alright if I start Ruse's story in a few days? I also might need some extra time to work on this because I am currently contending with an upcoming finals season at school ._.

Later edit: Ok I lied. I needed a break from public health frameworks so I pumped out 1000+ words in a night. We're making good progress over here.

Even later edit: the whole thing is just.. done. Almost 1200 words! Never underestimate a healthcare worker too emotionally exhausted for real work :p

Would you also mind shooting me an smail so I can send you a google docs link once I start working on the story?

That is great, I have no rush at all so please take your time <3 I'll be editing this in a few minutes with the request.

Pet name: Orel Personality: Nobody really does know what is going on behind the mask; Character preferences: Experimenting on things and beings, strange potions and science/discoveries; Point of view: 1st Settings: Inside a very dirty, dark and creepy laboratory; Other key characters: Key story events: I'd love if it was written as if Orel was thinking his life, rethinking his evil motives and cruel intents, but actually not expressing any emotions/guilt/regrets. Just how he likes or is good at creating "weird things" that come out of his test tubes; Key details: I'd love it if it could be a very creepy story, making the reader be like: "oh, ew, yikes!" if that's possible? I love cutesy stuff but I also delight in these creepy stories; :') Preferred length: 500 words (unless you actually find yourself entertained with the story and would like to go up to 1,200, as long as you take your time so I can have a bit more time to save up ♡) edit: I did manage to save up so if you feel inspired feel free to go all the way to 1,200 words, as long as it's a style you feel comfortable with of course)

In case you'd like to check the pet (he's an experiment) and/or treasure:

Orel

Also, English is not my first language so let me know if I didn't make any sense at any point in my explanation. Thanks a bunch!

Hi! Do you think you could give this a go? c: I know this form is super long so feel free to just deny it. I really suck at writing anything so please feel free to ask anything you need. ;_;

Pet name: [pet not found] (checking out his profile aesthetic might help) Personality: Very political and opinionated person, will fist fight you for something ridiculous. He's an extremist against his president, Robert Kennedy. Not many people like him but he is very loyal to those very few, and most of the time it won't be reciprocate. Other than that, very entitled and arrogant, tends to be abusive. Character preferences: Big hater of the Democratic Party, those darn liberals have too much freedom. Family is part of a rich mob, his violent and abusive tendencies are taught and encouraged by his parents. Loves using protests as an excuse for vandalism. Point of view: 1st Settings: This is a fanpet, my original character belonging to the Monument Mythos series. If you're familiar with it, then this character is set in the Deanverse, before James Dean was elected. If you're not familiar I don't think there's need to look it up tbh. Just know that he lives in a different universe where the US Government hides massive distorted monsters under national monuments without people knowing. In his timeline Robert Kennedy is the president, and he is one of the most powerful activists against Robert. In that universe we know that presidents can have one person kidnapped and placed inside the Lincoln memorial to be tortured in very specific ways. Those people eventually become a monster themselves. However Robert is kidnapping multiple people, this character included. Key story events: Background of violence, hate for the president, kidnapping, torturing, transformation Key details: I want his name to not be brought up, you are free to set up any age you like. He was kidnapped and never understood what was going on, but had faith his supporters would look for him - they didn't. They just assumed he was executed and disposed of. The torture procedure has some specific points: people are made to use Abraham Lincoln plastic masks, fed a paste only often enough to keep them alive, and have their blood harvested periodically. Other than that you can go with as much or as little detail as you feel like! After some years (decades? would that be too much?) of that they become this singular amalgamation of flesh and blood, but we have only seen a small part of it - a tentacle that popped out the statue in the incident where I want this story to end. An open end, if you will. Preferred length: anything up to and including Long Story will do, I know I gave A LOT of detail but that was mostly so you don't feel too lost, you can compress or stretch that as you wish.

Thanks!

Thanks for stopping by and popping in a request! I’m currently working on Orel, but I’d be happy to start working on Lincolnlooker in the next week or so. I’m not totally sure how well I’d be able to make a hyperpolitical conservative voice work in writing, but I’m willing to give it a shot. I’m thinking that maybe I could try to do a sample (like 300 words or so) specifically focused on this aspect (think political rant or just monologue) that I’ll send your way and if you think it’s working then we can give this the overall green light. Does that sound okay to you?

Hey darling! I'm going to leave this request here for after you're finished with Seraph's request, no hurry at all. (:

Pet name: Zojja; Personality: Personality of a small and timid child, so too naive to realize what a poweful creature she is. Doesn't know many things about the world, she believes the laboratory and her cage is pretty much all there is to be seen; Character preferences: It's a beautiful day when her creator comes by and brings books with him (super heros, romances, fables, stories about magical worlds and fantastic lives, anything that her TC contains), and it's a very bad day when he bring his sharp and pointy instruments; Point of view: Pref 1st person, but any way you think is best works for me; Settings: Similar to Orel, I'm thinking Zojja has never put feet outside of the laboratory; Other key characters: Orel, he's the only other being she has ever seen or interacted with, as she remains locked in her cage. She loves him with all her heart, despite all he does to her, she knows it is for her own good (or so he says); Key story events: Despite being whatever being she is, she is very kind, and 100% emotions, differently from Orel. She doesn't make any sounds for she doesn't have a mouth, communication is only through telepathy. However she does know how to read, and because of the many pairs of eyes she has, she can read multiple books at the same time (bringing a lot of books for her is a very efficient way to make her enternained, so she won't acknowledge her own strenght and powers and will remain calm inside her own head); Key details: That's pretty much it, but some other random details here ->

Zojja! Pref lenght: 1200 words, no worries if a bit less or a bit more!

And again, feel free to ask any questions, as my English is a bit rusty!

hi again c: I'd love to claim a slot if possible

Pet name: [pet not found] Personality: selfish, unreliable, individualist, coward, avoidant, antisocial Character preferences: has a strong preference for even numbers, almost obsessed Point of view: 3rd Settings: the pair of heads that form the experiment 4423 known as "Double Feature" started life as any other experiment in the lab of Euclid, under his care (think of a dog kennel for experiments). Not long after their creation there was a fire that burned down the vast majority of that part of the lab, which was a sign of the "curse" they carry of bringing misfortune to those they grow attached to. After that they lived in the streets, where they grew an admiration for Maleria for her great powers. They eventually joined a freakshow and were taught how to lie, cheat and steal. A fortune teller was specially fond of them, but quit the show after learning about the "curse" during a card reading. Eventually the show was destroyed by a fire as well, but now they knew how to put up their own show and would never starve or be homeless again. They now present a show under the pier at Delphi Beach with a big sign saying "presenting... Double Feature", no schedule, they just show up and gather people around with their charisma, promising to offer cheats to make you win at carnival games or magic pills that will grant you good luck. However every time they show up some disaster struck, and the only way they manage to always gather more costumers is by using memory-altering poison inside the lucky pills, so no one can ever tie the disasters to them, even though it's obvious. Key details: visual ref - inspired by this song Preferred length: Standard

Here I am again because I'm a fan of your work! 😍

Pet name: Ulgrana

Ulgrana Personality: Despite looking like she doesn't care about anything, she has a very high sense of justice and a heavy heart for the burden she carries (her own fate of killing her kind). You may say she's caring or has empathy, but she won't admit it, she's tough as a rock; Character preferences: She just wants to enjoy good things around the planet, such as fast food, fast cars, partying and not having to think or worry about anything; Point of view: 1st or 3rd person, or in form of a diary on three parts:

  1. When they created her on the laboratory, how strong/powerful she is, her habilities to bend fire to her will and what an amazing killing machine she is;
  2. When they let her out on missions and she successfully kills experiments here and there with no second thoughts; then she starts to question or seem hesitant about killing her own kind (she realizes they are all like her and she is playing in the wrong team);
  3. She ran away and forces sent to look for her, seen her here or there doing what she likes but no successfull attempt to catch her yet. Feel free to work with this as you think will be best tho!
    Settings: If you prefer to do is as 1st person, just Ulgrana enjoying a beer at the rooftop of some sloppy bar and thinking to herself about her choice and her journey up to that moment; Other key characters:Key story events: Ulgrana is perfect – and in a literal way. She was born in a laboratory, every bit of her was very well thought and developed to achieve perfection. She was created to put an end to the atrocities that spread from experimental labs, and that’s because her creator, the mastermind behind Ulgrana’s whole being, lost his family to a vagrant experiment. And the creator was only spared because he wasn’t home that day – he was inside the laboratory developing more strands of erratic DNA to inject on subjects and, ironically, bring life to other possible viable experiments. So, as a form of revenge, he dedicated his whole life to create a being more powerful than anything ever seen, to put an end to the aberrations the science was creating in name of research and scientific knowledge/pharmacy/power or chaos; Key details: Runnaway, wanted by the whole science team because she is pricey and a masterpiece on its own. She changed her name to 'Empyria' after she was free to be herself; Preferred length: I'm not sure if the story has what it takes to go to 1,200 words, 500 will do just fine, unless you think there's a lot to work upon? Let me know, I'm very flexible with the lenght as long as the story is there to be told! ^_^

Hello my beautiful! I have a request for you...but only if you think you can work with the character...

Pet name: Resheph Personality: Resheph is a god of the Underworld, specifically of the Plague. He is strong and powerful and very sweet. He is kind and prefers not to have to start plagues but will start them if he deems it necessary. He is very much in charge of everything in his life and hates being out of control. He has a small army at his disposal at all times, specifically of mice and roaches and other similar bugs. He is able to manifest wherever he likes and mostly seems to appear on the Freyalise Trading Co. Ship. Character preferences: Specifically dislikes Angrybeard because Angrybeard likes to kill/get rid of the mice and roaches on the ship. Dislikes a lot of the other pirates for the same reasons...Likes mice/rats/roaches...and also likes "the biggest plague of any planet - people" Point of view: 1st or 3rd...depending on how it feels when it is being written...honestly happy with either. Settings: Port Plunder, specifically on the Freyalise Trading Co ship...but also maybe some little bits in Port Plunder at the Rathskeller Inn? Other key characters: Only Angrybeard as a guaranteed character... Key story events: I would love it to be a couple of different run ins with Angrybeard (and maybe even Babette or Carl if you fancy adding them in...) So like, the first time he meets Angrybeard...and then the second time when Angrybeard watches him disappear with another rescued mouse and says something like "all without a touch of rum" because the first time he thought he was drunk to see this giant mouse appear in front of him...and then how their interactions change to be maybe Angrybeard calling Resheph to have a game of poker or something? Key details: Angrybeard likes Resheph. Resheph does not like Angrybeard...although as the story goes on maybe Resheph begins to almost tolerate him? Preferred length: Long enough? LOL...I will leave that to you. I will be paying CSC

Thank you SO much - you are awesome and I love youuu

Pet name: [pet not found] Personality: bubbly, innocent, curious, naive, oblivious, the basics of a child Character preferences: loves to spend time observing and thinking about what he has observed Point of view: 3rd but 1st can work too if you prefer Settings: Aura (the pet) is the inner child of a galactic entity. This entity lives inside and around the Sun and watches over all the planets, but specially earth, for all the life in it. She protects us from spacial threats, anything you can come up with! From asteroids to wandering eldritch creatures. Aura lives inside of her, and she's unaware of him. He exists in a state that I like to describe as a "fetus state". He's inside, he can't move or act on his own, but can watch and have feelings as mentioned above, he loves life; he doesn't feel anything negative as he is "unborn" and untainted by malice. He is the physical manifestation of her love for us (humans and anything alive), but she can't let herself feel it as she must be fearless and aggressive at all time, so it manifested as Aura unconsciously.

I would really like for the entity to be unnamed, but she was once a human named Dr. Leighann, a cosmologist working on a project called "Apollonia" at the military facilities of an unknown country. The project was about the construction of weaponry to protect earth in the case of any spacial threat. She had a very high position, only answering to one other doctor. During the project she sneaked out and started her own research with things that would not be taking seriously by the other researches, such as thaumatology (study of miracles) and spells. Using funds she would basically steal from the project, she eventually discovered a spell that is essentially a code that let her access the "database" or her own brain, like as if someone hacked Facebook and could edit their source code. She used this power to stripe herself of her humanity and start over as the entity, completely fulfilling the work of her life. She remembers nothing of her past before the ascension. No one was aware of this, and Leighann is considered missing. Key story events: doctor accepted in the project -> steals money and does her own research -> ascends and forgets about her life -> still loves us and life, so Aura manifests inside her Key details: The entity is inspired by SCP-179 from the SCP Foundation Tales. You don't even need to read about that if you don't want to, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Aura is inspired by the homonym Lady Gaga's song "Aura". Preferred length: Do you think you can keep all this at Standard length please? 👉🏻👈🏻 And I would be happy to pay extra since there are 2 main characters in that, just let me know.

Hmm I'm going to be honest, this sounds like it would be a big struggle to keep this to 1200 words--you're asking for a lot of content and exposition (especially with two characters that are going to need to be fleshed out/explained) with this prompt. I'm willing to try to keep it within the word limit, but I want to warn you that a shorter story might have serious pacing issues--and there's a very real chance I might not be able to build out a draft that I'm personally satisfied with within that story length.
