#WIPSnips 5. “Mug”
Some gods are more sociable than others…
Also, my favourite mug is one that has the three live-action Spider-Men on it. It's old, so the art has faded a bit by now.

Made one for Askaly and Xiuying as well and aaaaaah, it's so cuuuuute! 🥺😭🥰

#WIPSnips 2. “Beach”
Alas, I don’t have any snippet of Ashrah enjoying her precious beach yet, so here’s one I find interesting: Kai explaining how the White Lotus aligns with Buddhism’s first precept: no killing.

#WIPSnips 30. “Film”
The monks (and Askaly) are getting ready to sail to the Island of the Lost Sea.

#SundaySnips 29. "Nourish"
Askaly finds an inspiring model for her first drawing!
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
Fresh from the editing trenches, Askaly judging Lord Raiden's hat choice makes me giggle x)
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WritingCommunity #SaturdaySnippet
#QueerWritersChat Q4. Ah, well, since Sareena's is [redacted], I must go with this snippet of Askaly talking a little about what she knows of her mother's childhood, the only piece I have so far, really 😅
#BattlemageAskaly #CaptainNitara
Ashrah is the opposite of "smoochable" 😅 Affection is reserved for those she truly loves and built a connection with, and even then, she's not the most affectionate demon out there.
The only one who does give out affection like candy is Askaly, really 😅
#SayaAshrah #BattlemageAskaly
#WIPSnips 21. “Wake”
Going with “waking” because this moment is just too perfect not to share today. (Stephen King would have a heart attack with all the adverbs here.)
Will be back to read others' snippets later!
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
#WIPSnips 16. “Repeat”
Nitara is not well…
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
#CaptainNitara #BattlemageAskaly
Violence has never been much present in the life of the twin princesses, Mileena and Kitana. But they do become, particularly for Mileena, as she begins to explore more of her tarkatan nature. Indeed, there's a rather... stomach-twirling scene related to (5/9)
... with lots of cream and sugar and fruits? Yes, she adores those! She's not a huge fan of chocolate, though, so chocolate pies are better left for others.
Mileena is disgusting and eats rhubarb pie 😅 (3/3)
#SayaAshrah #CaptainNitara #NetherTouchedSareena #BattlemageAskaly #MileenaSuêòng
#SFFChat Q4. Ok, I just put this little scene together because I WILL write it for this chapter I'll edit today, but I didn't get there yet, so the final version will probably have more details and such, but... I couldn't resist bringing beloved Bǐng back x)
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly
I made one for Ashrah and Nitara and one for Askaly and Xiuying 🥰✨
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #SayaAshrah #CaptainNitara #Ashtara #BattlemageAskaly #XiuyingCotR
Sareena, from Chronicles of the Realms, made in the Gothic Heroine character maker (link: https://www.dolldivine.com/gothic-heroine). She's inside a castle, wearing dark red and black clothes mixing a Gothic with an Indian style, holding a dagger in her left hand while black claws protrude from her right fingers. She has her usual mischievous expression. Behind her stands a hound of shadows with bright yellow eyes and muzzle.
Nitara, from Chronicles of the Realms, made in the Gothic Heroine character maker (link: https://www.dolldivine.com/gothic-heroine). She wears a suit surprisingly similar to her captain outfit, holding a sword in her left hand and downing a glass of blood with the other. Wisps of shadow magic drift around her.
Askaly, from Chronicles of the Realms, made in the Gothic Heroine character maker (link: https://www.dolldivine.com/gothic-heroine). She wears a very red dress and wields a sphere of blood magic in one hand.
Ashrah, from Chronicles of the Realms, made in the Gothic Heroine character maker (link: https://www.dolldivine.com/gothic-heroine). She wears a white dress with a golden pauldron-esque piece and vambraces. She carries a sword, and there are ghosts and ghostly energy floating around her.
Coliary family Gothic AU—Sareena (who just looks fantastic!), Nitara, Askaly, and yeah, even Ashrah! 🙌🏽🔥😈

#WIPSnips 8. “Beam”
First time seeing Askaly *truly* in action!
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
Full-body commission of Nitara Coliary (pronounced nee-tsa-rah soh-lee-ah-roo), from Chronicles of the Realms, by Sasha (@sashthesloth.bsky.social). Nitara is a tall, broad-shouldered, muscular nensii (kind of a vampire) with large red wings. She wears a fur-lined red coat over a blue waistcoat (with a belt across it), and below that, a white shirt. The tattoo of a winged spear is half-visible below the shirt's v-shaped neckline. She also wears a red sash, trousers, and a pair of blue knee-high boots. She has green eyes, red hair crowned by her blue captain hat, and her fangs peek out from her mouth. In one of her hands, she holds her arylipa (ah-roo-lee-pa), a spear with three points, and in the other, she summons shadow magic.
Digital art of Captain Nitara by Red Hunter (@redhunter94.bsky.social). It's a low-angle drawing of Nitara, her hands propped against the railing of her ship, the Vermilion Star, her eyes closed and a smile on her face in an expression of pleasure, her red hair dancing with the wind. Above her, the night sky shines with Niumbra and Oroni, the two moons of the realm of Vaeternus, the former large and purple, and the latter small and blue. Nitara wears only her "pirate shirt" and waistcoat, leaving aside her heavy, fur-lined coat. On her chest, we can partially see the tattoo of her House, a winged spear.
Digital painting of Askaly (pronounced ash-kah-loo) Coliary, from Chronicles of the Realms, by Disc (@disco4ia.bsky.social). It depicts her in three-quarter view, her lovely smile and red eyes directed at the viewer, her hair tucked behind her ear.
Here's the captain, my captain, Nitara, and her (and later Ashrah's as well) adopted daughter, Askaly 💜 (5/9)
#CaptainNitara #BattlemageAskaly
#WIPSnips 6. “Pursue”
As they say, “the show must go on.” (Yes, the “she” here is Askaly. Also getting an itch to draw Bi-Han now that I have his real-life reference, but... beard 😫)
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
For #BattlemageAskaly, I'm actually not sure, either, but I'm going with this. Askaly is that sweetheart who's always hoping for the best and trying to be friendly, so I think this fits. But again, if anyone has better ideas, do send them my way! (5/9)
#SapphicLineShare 27. Here's the meet-cute of the grumpy/sunshine couple of #ChroniclesOfTheRealms, Askaly and Xiuying 🥰💙
#BattlemageAskaly #XiuyingCotR #LesFic #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
“So, what tattoo would you like?” “A flower.” “A… flower?” Out of all the things Askaly had expected to hear, a simple, delicate flower had not been among them. Xiuying swept her hands across the blanket stretched over her bed, repeating the movement twice before she stopped, her arms outstretched. “Xiuying. It means ‘beautiful flower’ or ‘elegant hero’. It is the name my mother gave me.” Not a name Askaly would associate with Outworld, at least not with Shao Kahn’s empire. Indeed, after spending some time among the monks and hearing them talking among themselves in their language, it sounded more like Chinese. “I thought your parents were from Outworld.” Xiuying frowned and, without answering, sat down on the bed, her long legs spread across the floor. Then she pulled her left arm out through the short sleeve of her robe, and Askaly had to blink to stop staring. “Uh, I’m assuming you want the tattoo on your shoulder?” “Yes.”
#LesFicFri 20. "Delicate"
Askaly learns something curious about the usually tough Xiuying.

#WIPSnips 20. “Corner”
Lots of “corner of her eye/mouth” in this book 😂 In this one, we have an angry Askaly making a bitter promise…
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
#WIPSnips 18. “Laser”
This is a funny one. The only character who could’ve given me “laser” doesn’t have those same powers in CotR 😅 Yet, Kano still shoots a kind of “beam” from his "cursed eye!"
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
#WIPSnips 16. "Hurt"
A little while ago, I shared a snippet where Baraka was being forced to fight a wounded Johnny. If you were wondering why he was so hurt, well...
CW for burning flesh.

#SundaySnips 15. "Sizzle"
Bending the rules carefully so they won't break. Probably not "sizzle" the prompt was most interested in, but oh well... x)
#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #BattlemageAskaly #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters
#WIPSnips 14. “Sweetheart”
It just has to be a romantic one, right? This is from one of the short stories I had planned for Kinktober but never finished 😅 Nothing shocking, just some kisses and a sneaky hand.

The games aren’t always fair, are they?

#SundaySnips 8. "Yearn"
Askaly's desires today are rather simple.
