#supernatural — Public Fediverse posts

For the record, I will never ever ever forgive The CW for not picking up the SUPERNATURAL: WAYWARD SISTERS spinoff.

We were entirely robbed, y'all.

So someday, I'ma write my own story/ies of a couple of older women and their ragtag group of girls who fight otherworldly big bads. Just see if I don't!

#PennedPossibilities 1109: What question does your MC long to find an answer for? What answer do they hope for, and which one would they fear?

As we found out already in one of the previously posted chapters, Fenella enjoys researching vampires. She only knows bits and pieces of their lore. Alternatively, as she gets to know Hati, the woman reveals the origins of wolves (AKA werewolves) to her. Viking mythology isn’t just mythology. It’s history. It’s true. Fenella wishes she knew this much about her own people. Perhaps one day she’ll find the answers she seeks. Maybe the Eddas are a good place to start. I would go so far as to say that I’m not entirely sure what answer she’s hoping for and which one would frighten her, only because she doesn’t know where to begin.

(I had hoped to write more for this one, but I really don't feel well today. That’s okay, though.)

#PennedPossibilities 1108: Tell us something you like about your story. (Maybe something you find interesting, entertaining, or amusing.)

For me, this is something interesting and it verges on amusing (for Alistair, though). It also ties perfectly into tomorrow’s prompt and my answer, which you’ll learn. I really liked this snippet.

#PennedPossibilities 1107: Saturday Word Edition: Share something from your WIP pertaining to the word “anticipation.”

(For @thatwriterellie.)

I’ll share a tiny excerpt.

⬇️

“How long have you thought about this?” asked Fenella, her gaze bravely searching for his own. His thumb slid away her lips and he dragged it along her chin, inhaling sharply as he leant closer. Then his breath ghosted across her skin as he exhaled. It was almost an intimate caress, but she craved more.

“I’ve thought of little else since you left,” Alistair confessed. “It’s been torture.”

“Then show me what you’ve missed,” she begged, a hand falling to the small of his back. The anticipation was enough to swallow her whole. She pulled him into her, guiding him, and he groaned at the pressure, the closeness, and the intimacy behind it. His free hand settled on her hip, where he tightened his hold, and her knees went weak.

“Let’s try again,” she added. “I think we deserve a second chance.”

#WordWeavers 8/22: Which character would make the worst roommate?

Oof. Big oof. I can't choose between two of my antagonists, Isma or Duncan. I think Duncan would try to drain me dry and leave me to die on the floor. He would make a game of the hunt. Isma, however, would enthrall me and use me as a slave, maybe turning me into a fellow vampire later on, just to suffer as a life-long, immortal slave for him. I think, given the situation, Isma would be far worse.

#ScribesAndMakers 8/21: Link to or summarize yesterday's poll and reveal the answer.

I *do* have a character who's able to read minds. That would be Alistair.

I *also* have a character who sells antiques and art pieces. That would be Caden, and he's quite a businessman.

I don't have a character who was a spellcasting warlord at one time, though. That was a random answer I came up with in the moment.

#PennedPossibilities 1106: SC POV: When was a time where you had to make an impossible choice?

I talked about Caden last night, so let’s do it again.

Caden: It was when I left the cult. I hated every second of it, but I had to leave a friend behind. He needed my help to escape as well, but I couldn’t do anything for him in the moment. I had to run. He told me to go. I thought I could come back for him one day, so I ran, and ran, and ran.

Just had one hell of an idea for Book 2 of the Bloodbound Legacy Series. I knew it was going to be about Caden (who's a vampire), but I wasn't sure exactly what his story would be or where it would go. Imagine that he becomes enamored with a local Wraith, Phantom, or Spectre (I haven't decided yet on the lore or the creature's species name, but he'll be a more corporeal and tangible spirit). Since Caden was a character that was vaguely based on Crowley from Good Omens, just for a friend of mine, I could make said creature a good/light-hearted, fun, loving, caring one (a bit like Aziraphale). Maybe he even loves books and occupies a library in Moray, Scotland. Haunting a bit, making friends, etc. They could fall in love. Why not do a full dedication of sorts for a friend? We would be the only people who knew where the inspiration actually came from lol.

Let me know what you guys think... Yay? Nay? I really like it, to be honest. 🤔

The writing for Dean Winchester and the acting of Jensen Ackles are just peak, ngl.
They truly created a believable character that's flawed and carries secrets and insecurities but also wishes and a deep love for his broken family.

#DeanWinchester #Supernatural #Shows #ShareYourShows

#PennedPossibilities 1105: What secret does one of your characters keep that is dangerous to them? Does anyone else know about it?

I’ll go with the safe option for this answer.

Caden is a Dreamcaster. Simply put, he can send individuals to sleep and induce a dreamstate. He’s even able to influence and affect the dream if he so chooses. This is precious information, of course, and it’s a skill that he doesn't dare tell others that he possesses. It’s highly sought after, and it’s too dangerous to risk. Years ago, he was in a vampire cult and managed to escape them. They would use him if they knew.

Towards the beginning of the novel, he chooses to tell Fenella and Alistair. Well, I say *tell,* but what I really mean to say is that he *shows* them — of course, by putting both of them to sleep and making them dream. He’s dramatic that way. Anyway, he trusts this secret with them. They’re all such close friends. But the fact that he hid this piece of himself for centuries is mind-boggling to Fen and Alistair…

#WordWeavers 8/20: If your story had a tagline, what would it be?

Steadfast loyalty, compassion, and care are what make you family, not blood.

#WordWeavers 8/19: Which character has changed the most since your first draft?

Hati has changed the most for me (and she's still changing). She has gone from what was supposed to be a friend to the MCs and merely a SC to almost a third MC at this point.

A quotation from Shakespeare

GLENDOWER: I can call spirits from the vasty deep.
HOTSPUR: Why, so can I, or so can any man;
   But will they come when you do call for them?

William Shakespeare (1564–1616) English dramatist and poet
Henry IV, Part 1, Act 3, sc. 1, l. 55ff (3.1.55-57) (1597)

#PennedPossibilities 1104: Where has your MC lived the longest? What kept them there for so long?

It’s Dorcha Castle in Moray, Scotland. In fact, he actually *still* resides there. Memories, loyalty, love, and friendship have all been the reasons why he stayed. It’s his home.

#WordWeavers 8/18: What's your favorite line you've written this year?

What a tough question. How about this one:

The pupils weren’t just black, they were midnight fields, starless and infinite that swallowed distance and sound, leaving a weighted, eternal silence.

#WordWeavers 8/17: Which scene made you laugh while writing it?

I'll share it. It still makes me giggle.

#PennedPossibilities 1101: What creature or monster would your MC or SC love to keep as an unconventional pet? Why is that?

The answer to this one is quite simple. It’s been mentioned enough in the story already. It would have to be moths. As a matter of fact, Alastair actually keeps them as pets, cares for them, and has done this for years.

Bats aren’t important to vampires. That’s only folklore. It’s complete nonsense. Moths, however, are *very* symbolic.

#Supernatural had at least 2 legend writers from #XFiles in its first season, Ben Edlund and John Shiban, as well as the prolific XFiles director, Kim Manners, who went on get super attached to the #SPN production in Vancouver and became known as the "Show Bible" re: universe consistency.

SPN's been likened to Buffy and other CW shows like Vampire Diaries, but its baseline XFiles DNA gets overlooked imo 🫶

#PennedPossibilities 1100: Who is the most challenging opponent your MC has ever faced? What did they learn from them?

Alistair and Fenella have the same answer. It’s Isma. Duncan could be another possible one, only on a much lower tier, of course. And it’s more about what they learned *not* to do, how not to treat others, than it is about anything else. They saw the rottenness of mortals and immortals alike from that man (and Duncan as well). After all, they were all once mortals (AKA humans), and they shed their humanity like a snake sheds its skin. It’s disgusting.

#WordWeavers 8/12: If your main character had a comfort food, what would it be?

The way I just laughed out loud.

Let's try warm, slightly tipsy, maybe blonde or brunette (he isn't picky), and dancing around the room with him.

In my universe, my vampire MC takes what he calls "sweet drinks" or "little sips," and his victims are none the wiser. They aren't injured at all and are only missing a few drops of blood.
