Jaskier thought after being unceremoniously dumped at the top of a monster infested mountain by his muse, protector and believed friend of the past couple of decades, that that was the end of it really. It wasn’t. Not by a long shot it turns out. Now he’s smuggling non-humans to safety in the midst of a continent wide war, whilst trying to find a permanent safe home for them. Then destiny drops yet another Witcher in his lap and Jaskier’s life goes from ‘complicated mess’ to ‘consequences beyond your comprehension’ quite quickly and shows no sign of slowing down. aka this time it’s the bard’s turn to be the accidental warlord.

fic focused on the most: blood and whiskey

posting is going well, writing is...not. the depression fairy has visited once again so i've just flatlined with my joy of writing. i had intended to finish my quinobi prompts for quinobi week but i wound up doing the first draft of like 3 and then loosing all desire to continue. same with a lot of projects, i'm just in the trenches right now, battling my way out again. send warm vibes, ya boi is in it again.

crafting

see above the depression fairy is kicking my ass. i've done some stitches here and there but nothing substantial.

death stranding volume one α₯«α­‘. paused α₯«α­‘.
for some unknown reason a game i have never played captured me mind and soul for a brief hyper-fixation, so i got into the book, which was going fairly well until the hyper-fixation passed and now it's on pause like many others. thanks autism/adhd for my fickle hyper-fixations (sarcasm, so much sarcasm). i have no idea what to read now, the depression fairy has killed my desire for much beyond fanfic and though i have happily dug myself into the hiccup/jack pairing (again why? i dunno, the stars were aligned or something...) i don't really have any desire towards reading the books those two fandoms originally came from, even with david tennant reading the how to train your dragon series but i've picked them up to see if they keep my attention, so far we're trundling along but i can't really tell if its the depression making it a chore or the stories themselves. i definitely have a desire to read more books based in fandoms going forward but the problem is i'm not currently into any particular fandom that has a book or series of books i'm particularly interested in sooooo yeah, we are at the edge of the void just waiting for the next lightening strike of hyper-fixations to hit. fingers crossed there's a book series involved in the next whim.

fanfic recommend

Of the Northmost Winds and Skies by xxiiyu and under my skin by planetary_no

both are hiccup/jack from how to train your dragons/rise of the guardians, a crossover ship that had me in its clutches nearly a decade ago for a brief time but has somehow grabbed me again? don't know how but i'm enjoying the ride.

of the northmost winds is a massive but absolutely spectacular fic that i whole heartedly recommend even if you're not super big into the fandoms or the pairing, its just that good it transcends fandom boundaries trust me. under my skin is more for those in the fandom and is brilliant and hot in equal measure, i never turn my nose up when it comes to a good au and this is a fantastic one, hunter/vampire is just *chef's kiss* the perfect mix. give them both a look in, you won't be disappointed!

fic focused on the most: quinobi week prompts

getting back into the swing of things after effectively taking two months off writing. the posting of blood and whiskey is going great! i've had so much feedback, far more than i was expecting given its a bit of rare pair but its been fantastic to see people enjoying it! i haven't been working on the remaining chapters just yet, got a little sidetracked with upcoming pairing weeks, quinobi and merwaine to be specific. i'm feeling pretty good about my writing and enjoying the ride. 

crafting

i finally got a floor frame so i've put my 'the legend of zelda cross stitched tapestry' onto it, makes it easier for me and should encourage me to work on it more. other than that i've been meandering through a little side project flowers from the breath of the wild era. a chill wee project to do while i'm watching something. i've still got azune to work on for my critical role portraits and the hades map as well, though i'm saving that for when my crafting group restarts at the beginning of september.

artemis α₯«α­‘. DNF α₯«α­‘. review: 0 ⋆
i finally gave up on this, i wanted to like it so badly but it was so damn slow and boring! i adore the martian and project hail mary and i really think weir's strengths are getting straight into the action (and probably not writing woman), nearly 100 pages into this and we still hadn't hit the plot and i was just finding reading this to be an absolute chore so i've sadly put it in the 'charity shop' pile. 

 

stargate and stargate sg-1 the price you pay α₯«α­‘. paused α₯«α­‘. 
last month i got back into stargate and i have dived deep into the additional media including the audios and the books. the hyperfixation is waning again so we'll see if i pick these back up again. so far the movie novelisation is really good and goes into a fair bit of detail which i'm enjoying. however the price you pay suffers from being one of the first books of the at the time new series, the characterisation and the terminology is just a little off so i don't think it'll be one of my faves. 

 

stargate sg-1: an eye for an eye α₯«α­‘ completed: 17/08/26  α₯«α­‘ ⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆
  • having a bigger cast for these has absolutely raised them up. this one especially was perfectly tense and surprisingly emotional especially regarding ba'al's host. i thought it was a really good story.

stargate sg-1: infiltration α₯«α­‘ completed: 28/08/26  α₯«α­‘ ⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆
  • honestly wished we'd had more of the dinosaur planet but i did also quite enjoy this. it wasn't as good as its previous two but was still quite fun and kept me on the edge of my seat. 
jaskofalltrades: (Default)

i've deep dived and begged for recs since i began my rewatch of this ol' fave and now i've decided to share in that bounty! here's some of my faves, mostly jack/daniel with a wonderful gen fic thrown in there. enjoy and send some love to these fine people and their works!

these are all my 5/5 reads btw, so imagine i'm frothing at the mouth screaming and throwing up about each of these as my review! this is also not a 'finalised list' so much as these are the ones that snagged me recently, im still digging, check out my public bookmarks for more and i might do another of these further down the line.

special shout out to @velvetwar and @this-is-meaning-of-life-stuff for pointing me towards some fics and authors when i put out the bat signal a couple of weeks back, im still slowly but surely working my way through everybodies suggestions and willingly sacrificing sleep for the goal!

Daniel has been keeping Jack at a careful distance for years. He's very good at it.

One bruise that somehow leads into something neither of them were quite prepared to name.

it's been like 2/3 years in the works and yeah its not finished-finished, i've got 9 chaps absolutely completed and the rest still need polished and perfected but if i don't start posting soon, i'm just gonna wind up hating it and putting it back on the wip shelf forever so we're doing this! aug 3rd we begin with weekly uploads until i either run out of perfected chapters or we finish! im excited, i hope others are too! i smushed together some pics on pinterest in a quick wee sheesh in photopea for the cover so its a wee bit rough around the edges, been a hot second since i stretched the photoshop skills but i had fun throwing it together and its nice to have something a lil visual to go with the link, spruce it up a bit. anyway for the potentially three other people into this ship, i hope you're excited as i am!

 witch hat atelier volume 7 α₯«α­‘. completed: 03/07/26 α₯«α­‘. review: ⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆
witch hat atelier volume 8 α₯«α­‘. completed: 10/07/26 α₯«α­‘. review: ⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆

still on my reread of the witch hat atelier series with no sign of slowing down, seriously this series isn't only just beautiful but its well written and hits every note consistently and the reread just makes it even better. i deliberately slowed myself down to a chapter a night so that i could spend a lot of time just admiring each individual page and all the background art and lore that i might have just skipped over previously. its been great. i only paused because of trips. 

my nephew's first birthday party was a hoot, i took my old poloroid camera down for some family pictures that are now up in the collage i'm building. i don't often take the camera much as i want those physical photos, its a chunky wee thing but we were stationary and weren't off anywhere so that worked out. he's gotten so big, up and moving and he even smiled at me a handful of times. the year has just flown by. it was good to see my brother and sis-in-law as well, they're doing well and its nice to catch up in person rather than just over the phone. 

the following weekend saw me in edinburgh for critical role live! i stayed in my very first hostel, the hotel prices were fucking extortionate! still i had so much fun and really enjoyed the show. i went to the real mary king's close which was really good, felt short even though it was about an hour cause it was interesting and well put together, i also saw the famous location for the first episode of the magnus archives too! so that on top of a truly fantastic show was a spectacular weekend!

because of my recent rewatch into stargate, i dived into the audio dramas during the weekend rather continue my wha reread, also i'm still recovering from back to back weekends of socialising

 stargate sg-1 pathogen α₯«α­‘. completed: 17/07/26 α₯«α­‘. review: ⋆⋆⋆⋆

i've found the dramas to be really good so far, chris' took a second to get into it, you could tell it was his first audio but he got the hang of it, shame about clarke being in it but thems the times for you. besides that, each of the dramas could have been their own episode on the show, they're very good and quick wee stories. have to say michael's first is my fave so far, i love a good bit of existential horror in my sci-fi and this was perfect!

i'm really enjoying my rewatch as well, i've missed 20 odd episode long seasons of a show. the filler episodes, the ability to stretch a narrative and actually build on characters and their relationships, its sadly missing in these 10 or less episode seasons. i do miss the early seasons of stargate mostly for the level of camp, the absolutely off the wall stories and daniel's pre-00's floppy hair (i will never forgive them for cutting it, nor for the party city wig they bring in to replace it in the flashback/past version episodes they have in later seasons). i'm nearing the end of season 3 and i'm sad cause yes some of my fave episodes are in later seasons but also TPTB basically freaked out over the slash community and went on to gut the relationship between jack and daniel which sucks. not looking forward to that. 

anyway, still figuring out what i'm doing with this but here we go! 

jaskofalltrades: (Default)
but now i do! yey! just have to figure out exactly what i'm actually gonna use this for. updates on my fics, bts stuff, life updates what im watching??? i dunno, ill figure it out, but for now here we go!
