SYNOPSIS: A YEARS-LONG ABUSE SCANDAL IS REVEALED AND ENDS IN DISASTER. AMONG THE COLLATERAL DAMAGE IS CONNER CLEMSON, YOUNGER BROTHER OF KATHERINE CLEMSON. THEY SHOULD’VE PICKED SOMEONE ELSE’S BROTHER TO KILL.
I. The news continued to blare on the television, but it had become nothing but background noise. All we could do was stare at Katherine. I couldn’t tell you why. For the same reason you can’t help but stare at a car crash when you drive by, I guess. She looked at us looking at her, and then finally, she said, “I want a drink. Or a cigarette. I don’t care which, and I know one of you’s got something.” She waited. None of us moved. “A drink,” she repeated. “Or a cigarette.” Finally, Lee pulled a flask out of the pocket of Russell’s jacket that was hanging off a chair. Nobody said anything as he gave it to her.
II. I blinked and the Katherine from moments ago who was sobbing uncontrollably had suddenly vanished, replaced with a different Katherine, one burning with hot, livid rage. “I want to burn the whole place to the fucking ground. That’s what I want.” Russell took a long drag from his cigarette. “Then let’s.”
III. “I… I can’t believe we just did that,” I said numbly. “It doesn’t even feel real.” But it was, of course. So, sickeningly real.
IV. “So,” Aria said, “what next? Who next?” A pit of dread opened up in my stomach. “What do you mean?” I asked, although I knew perfectly well.
V. “This is absolutely insane.” I looked at them, each of them–Russell, then Lee, then Aria, and finally, Katherine, who I barely recognized anymore–hoping to see anything that indicated any of them knew where I was coming from. “Hasn’t this gone too far? When do we stop?” “When do we stop?” Aria repeated. She pondered on the question for a moment, and then she looked right at me, staring at me with those cold eyes of hers. She gave me one of her airy, careless shrugs. “When this goes up in flames, so to speak.”

↝ WIP INTRODUCTION: MONSTRUM ↜
a prequel to my nano 2019 wip, [ the second moon! ]
genre | dark academia/fantasy, new adult
status | planning/first draft
setting | The Lord’s Sky Palace [ unfamiliar with it? ]
summary:
The Sky Palace was an ominous place to be.
In some ways, sure, it was very normal: The Lord attended to administrative matters, such as settling conflicts, taking court cases, planning buildings, etcetera; his Servants scurried around the palace attending to their lessons and projects; sports were played and crops were planted and holidays were celebrated.
But then again, it was also a palace full of ancient runes and spells and secrets hundreds of years old. So perhaps it wasn’t a surprise when people started dying.
Mangled human remains started appearing around the palace’s grounds, and funerals became a regularly scheduled activity (a hushed up activity, though, no reason to panic kopern’s citizens).
One night, Adian went to visit hisboyfriendfriend, Bane, hoping to meet Bane’s younger sister, Yttria, who was visiting for the summer. Instead what he found was a wolf monster shackled to Bane’s closet door.
“Instead” might be a strong word. The wolf monster was Yttria.
I don’t have a taglist, but if you’re interested, you can follow the WIP sideblog for this, @monstrumwip . Polished posts get stored there all by themselves, it’s essentially an archive of posts that people would otherwise be tagged in.

The Secret History by Donna Tartt
↪ “[Camilla] was the Queen who finished out our suit of dark Jacks, dark King, and Joker.”
