Works update! Hi!
I'm up to 136 works on my main ao3 account (I have a second with a few more. It's not a secret account, it's called Fortunato if you want to look it up) and I'm pretty chuffed. I've started doing art as well as fic and here's the latest stuff I've really enjoyed that I did!
FIC:
The first is a f!Hades fic (Greek Mythology) and an adaptation of the myth of the time Theseus and Pirithous tried to kidnap Persephone. I had a lot of fun writing it and I used Ann, Morbane, and Vali as my betas for it because each has specific skills that really helped me polish the fic. I am so grateful for my friends. Another beta I've been using frequently is my friend Karios, who is a most excellent chap. I spent a lot of time thinking about my conception of the underworld for Roots and Serpents and exactly how much Hades actually interacts with the world above when everything comes to him eventually.
For the second choice, Meet Solve was a Columbo/Murder She Wrote crossover that I was very excited to write because I am so very fond of these shows. I spent a lot of research time watching until I could hear their voices in my head and I felt so rewarded when I got feedback that says I captured it. Ann was an integral beta for this as she helped me figure out how to improve the mystery, fill in characterization, and provided some very funny lines I totally ripped off without credit except I'm crediting now.
The third choice is a Night Vale fanfic about the Weird Scouts for a fic exchange I love that's about worldbuilding - I used my experience as a Brownie and Girl Guide to go through the process of badge acquisition. Did you know I had totally full sashes during my terms? Go me. Note: I was not a Scout, these are Canadian specific organizations, so I'm afraid Night Vale briefly became Canadian for this fic. I was so into Night Vale once, I've even gone to a bunch of the live shows, and while I've fallen out of touch with it to a degree I had a great time listening to the research episodes I chose. The Ghost Story live show one was heartbreaking.
I... am not sure who beta'd my last fic choice, Ben Reilly Gets Some Paperwork Done, because while I cite they existed I don't give their name. Sometimes a beta will ask you don't do that because they don't want other people to know they offer beta services but I hope I didn't just forget to put their name on. I'd feel pretty bad if I did. Okay, so this is another worldbuilding fic where I got to think hard on the fact that a lot of characters in the Marvel universe don't legally exist or have paperwork. Rogue probably has some by now as she like, was born to a real family and probably got a ride to her hometown to get her birth certificate, but Gambit's a baby stolen from a hospital by a cult, everything he has is a complete fake. So what about a clone like Ben Reilly? How would he do it? Two chats I was in gave me a ton of GREAT suggestions on how I could commit identity fraud that I used part of - halfway through plotting them I remembered that this was a superhero story and I should absolutely use what makes Ben Reilly Scarlet Spider so I had him do stuff that could only work in his universe. The rest of the fic heavily cites events from X-Men's Inferno storyline where Havoc spends a lot of the event in a shirt where the front has been ripped off for maximum summersnipple.

Fandom:
Spider-Man (Comicverse)Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Ben Reilly, Nathaniel Essex, Alex Summers
Additional Tags: Identity Issues, light crime, 90s era, X-Men References, Graphic Novel: Spider-Man: The Original Clone Saga
Summary:
Existing involves a lot of pieces, even if you bluff for most of them. Some of those pieces are external, some of them are internal. Ben needs both.
Described this fic to my beta as: Ben Reilly commits document fraud, then watches Mr. Sinister and Havoc have a flamewar on usenet. It's an angst fic about identity issues.
ART:
I've been doing art now! It's fun. The first is the first ever porn I've ever made and it's retro pixel style so feel free to let that measure how excited you get. I love Darkside Detective so much and I love that it's a regular feature in exchanges.
The second involved a lot of careful staring at David Marciano's hairline to draw this picture (and then doodlepilogue) of Vecchio, Fraser, Jessica Fletcher, and Dief. On one hand I think I should have used an actual outfit reference for Jessica's outfit, on the other I think the world is improved by my artistic impression of 90s fashion mores.
