Huh, people seem to like this idea. Might do a one-shot based off of this. I need something to clear my writers block anyways. Thoughts?
The Underland Chronicles, and everything is the same except people refer to the Underland as "down under", and everyone from the Underland has really strong Australia accents.
Gregor: *Falls into the Underland*
Multiple 5ft cockroaches: G'day mate!
Gregor: *Terrified screaming*
Although already quite amazing, Kaiser Impact Magnus is still imperfect. Kaiser can also only do it with a static ball and not a moving one. And even with the static one, Loki was able to easily shut it down.
Kaiser has a lot to go.
And I’m racking my head trying to figure out how he can get stronger when his aim (love) and means (malice/restriction) do not align. Love is supposed to be freeing, and malice can never yield love.
He knows this.
He knows that love = freedom.
He knows this, and yet
...he rejects it.
By yearning for love while forging ahead with malice, he dooms himself to never actually reach love. And he does this on purpose, all for the sake of creating a restrictive environment where he, allegedly, is stronger.
Does it have to be like this?
Is there really no other way for him to grow while allowing love into his life?
...And is Kaiser actually stronger without love? Is restriction truly the answer?
Much to think about.
Gregor still hungover from raging (idk if he actually does that but something similar just sounds like a cool headcanon to me), when a random kid comes up to him and asks him if he's the child of his dead bond:
Suddenly overcome with the need for a Gregor the overlander and Percy Jackson crossover that takes place post hero of olympus and post the underland chronicles yes I could be the change I want to see in the world but that would require me nailing down this nebulous cloud of "WHAT IF???" All I got so far is some demigod seeing Gregor in his rager mode and asking if he's a child of ares and then my brain starts screaming ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Have created a new novel-writing approach for myself that I am calling Very Gentle Writing. Very Gentle Writing is an approach for people who live nearly every waking second in self-castigation and actually need peaceful slowness to unleash their creativity.
Very Gentle Writing does not set staggering word count goals and then feel bad about it. No! Very Gentle Writing for me sets an extremely low word count and then feels magnificently productive when the low bar is exceeded (which is easy…it’s a low bar, I mean really low).
Very Gentle Writing is about saying hey yo maybe I just want to listen to a chill playlist for a while and feel one sentence spill out. Go me!
Very Gentle Writing is kind of about realizing I have a really limited amount of time to write in between work, and adulting, and taking care of a thousand life responsibilities, and trying to heal&deal from trauma in 2020. So I want that writing time to be….just…..nice.
Very Gentle Writing means I have a goal of enjoying every single time I sit down to write. Really. I use all the fun words first.
Very Gentle Writing came to me as an idea when I started to think about how as someone actively trying to recover from a lot of lifelong trauma, the usual word harder!! Work harder!! mantras in the world of “people doing hard things” didn’t motivate me at all, they only hurt me. I truly need a voice saying work less hard, personally.
Like from a year ago but I never finished so I’m posting it now! Based on that one classical painting where the guy is getting enchanted by the faerie princess. I don’t remember it now, she’s on a horse.
damn wish I could cancel my breathing subscription

WAIT A MINUTE
You're walking around on Sunday the 7th cuz that's when ur uncle's boyfriend got hit by a runaway jet ski or whatever, when you some weird kid with even weirder just chilling outside his house.
Little do you f*cking know, he's an echolocating rager who will not let you anywhere near his family, and you are about the experience what all your victims have felt, only a lot less humiliating.
He may go overboard, but something about seeing him go fucking ballistic on people when he gets sick of their shit will always be the funniest thing in the series, and the fact it only happens like once every book makes it funnier.
I love that Gregor is the sweetest kid but he realistically has his moments, wears down, and gets sick of people and situations.
With literally everyone he’s such a kind and open minded little gentleman but Ripred can fuck himself because he’s a meanie.
