For various reasons to do with real life, this journal will be going on hiatus. It's temporary, but I have no idea when the stress will let up, or when (if?) I'll feel inspired to write fanfic again. Maybe in a week, or a month, or a year. Who knows! There are, after all, various Silmarillion characters I've recently developed an interest in.
Works-in-progress are on hold. I may be slow answering comments, but will try to continue to do so.
[Tales of Symphonia] A Pawn in Exile, 3/?
May. 10th, 2019 02:38 pmA Pawn in Exile
Author: Myaru
Fandom: Tales of Symphonia
Rating: really doesn't need one
Notes: Divergent Timeline, no beta, fewer fucks to give than ever before.
More notes: Life is not treating us kindly. I need something to do.
It’s been so long since I visited Derris Kharlan in-game that I forgot what it looked like, and had to dredge up some screenshots. But that’s okay. You all know I’m in the habit of making shit up anyway if there are holes in the story, or world-building, or dungeon design, or--when I feel like it. I’m sure you’ll deal.
I’ve got a whooooole mythology worked out for this world, of course. Pre-”history” mythology, since, you know, Cruxis. I also have a batshit fangirly string of ideas for how to connect the world of ToS to the world of Berseria, but that’s another story.
I’m probably not the only one who reasoned something like that out, but whatever.
( Derris Kharlan is a really creepy place to live, but it has some awesome libraries. )

A Pawn in Exile - 2/?

Rating: really doesn't need one
Notes: Divergent Timeline, no beta, fewer fucks to give than usual
More notes: I do have a plan. It’s just a, uh, very general plan, and I’m basically flying by the seat of my pants when writing most chapters. That’s what I’ve always done, but now I feel slightly guilty every time I do it.
05.10.19: I'm eventually going to delete this, as it doesn't fit well with my rewritten timeline. My... very general rewritten timeline.
( All half-elves become Desians in the end. )

A Pawn in Exile - 1/?
Author: Myaru
Fandom: Tales of Symphonia
Rating: really doesn't need one
Notes: Divergent Timeline
More notes: I literally came up with this title two minutes before posting. This is obviously unfinished, but I do have more, and will probably add to it when I'm bored because I've got most of the plot written out (for once). Not a guarantee, just like... every two years or so I might add more. :P
I've wanted badly to answer the question "Why might Genis switch sides?" for years, and the answer is about what you'd expect. I started writing this some time last September, and figured I may as well put it up.
Do I even have to tell you it's unedited?
( What did friendship mean to the lord of Cruxis? )

[Tales of Berseria] In a Perfect World
Jun. 23rd, 2017 03:06 amIn a Perfect World
by: Myaru
Characters: Velvet, Innominat, appearances by others
Rating: uhhh PG I guess
Word Count: too many
Summary: The way he smiled always made Velvet's heart sink. Sometimes it was all she could see--his smile, when she raged; his smile, when she could barely see anything for the tears in her eyes. Always smiling.
Inspired by Rest in Peace by Misty_Reeyus and Chronesthesia by Angelic_Ascent, but because I'm a terrible person who just can't let people have nice things...
(Posted a while ago on LJ and Ao3, but uhhh I lost my DW password for the fic journal and I'm lazy. :P)

[Suikoden III] Turn Back Time, 2/?

Author: Myaru
Game: Suikoden III
Characters: Sarah, a bunch of OCs
Word count: 5036
Theme/Inspiration: my own guilt. >_>
Notes: I'm so sorry your lazy friend is writing this, Rey. She doesn't edit, she doesn't even bother to read over the entire thing when she's done... and she sure as hell didn't check her canon facts! I mean. Seriously.

Untitled (That Elrond Fic - 2/?)
By: Myaru
Canon: The Silmarillion
Characters: Elrond, Elros, Maglor, Maedhros, OCs
Word Count:
Notes: believe it or not, this is all I've got after... how many months? Comes of rewriting the same material five times, I guess, and ditching a whole lot of material that sucked. Or that I thought sucked. Who the hell even knows anymore? Also, even though I have further scenes written, they're hand written, and it isn't quite time yet to put them in.
Fair warning: this needs a lot of work. It's going to have consistency issues, canon issues, factual issues with regards to medicine and how ancient/stone buildings might've stood up to earthquakes, all sorts of things I stopped researching to make myself write more instead of worrying.

Untitled (That Elrond Fic - 1/?)
By: Myaru
Canon: The Silmarillion
Characters: Elrond, Elros, Maglor, Maedhros, OCs
Word Count:
Summary: none yet; this takes place a bit after the War of Wrath started, according to a timeline at the SWG which may or may not be precise. Fifty years is a long time for a war, but since I wrote or planned most of this before I saw other options, I'm just going with it.
That said, fair warning: this needs a lot of work. It's going to have consistency issues, canon issues, inaccuracies with say, medicine. I'm still undecided on a lot of elements like OCs, as well.

[The Silmarillion] Distant Promise

Author: Myaru
Rating: K
Word Count: 1323
Challenge: January 2013 potluck / May 2012: "Bunny Hutch" atlotr_community
Elements: 23) Fourth Age or later: Galadriel waits in Aman for Celeborn's return. Her Reborn brother(s) (depending on whether the author thinks more than Finrod have been returned to Life by then) offer their opinions on their Sindarin/Telerin cousin's reason(s) for preferring not to sail with her. (Kaylee Arafinwiel)
Author's Notes: I would like to speculate that all of Galadriel's brothers have been reborn by the fourth age, but for the sake of simplicity I decided I should only try writing one of them. Also, as usual: no beta, uncertain canon (how many possible timelines does Galadriel have again? I lost count), I'm new to these characters, and so forth.
Summary: Fourth Age. Galadriel has returned to Aman without her husband, and Finrod would like to know why.
( Galadriel looked up from a map of Tirion... )
