More Than Royalty Masterlist:

I love being a writer because it forces me to understand and build the mind of someone who grew up, thinks, and acts so much differently from me

I keep wondering if making headcanons of my own ocs just makes them canon or not since I'm the writer. Or is it only canon if demonstrated in the story?

Masterlist

I'm incredibly bad at writing summaries, so bear with me.

Summary:

Sols follow two teen boys; a siren, Hesperus, and a human, Salem. Salem was raised to think sirens are dangerous liars, but after their initial encounter, curiosity leads him to secret meetings with Hesperus. Over time they grow to like one another, but they cant openly be together due to the human society's toxicity towards merfolk; putting Salem at risk if the word gets out. Salem also has to deal with the decision to pursue his mothers dreams or to stay in Khirgurum with his family, best friend, lover, and home. Their secret encounters strain Salem's relationships, thus testing his priorities as well as his honesty. Nasira, another siren, has dissaproved from the start; doing all she can to stop them from seeing one another.

This will be updated as I see fit, and character profiles will be linked once posted.

specific tropes in romance that always heal something in me that it never broke

like, forehead kisses, soft love confessions, peppering kisses all over the lover's face. promises that are kept, hands those are held with a gentle love, and hugs that engulf the heart too.

or when they rest their head on your chest, or lean on you for support.

"your tears kill me," kinda thing. or when a sunshine character finally cries and bawls their entire life's hurt out into their comfort grumpy character (plus point, if the grump feels guilty thinking if they had done something to trigger this emotional outburst)

communication. no matter hard the topic is, how big your differences are.

listening to the other person yap

admiring their facial features and seeing not just the outer structure but the person that they really are.

them getting angry on ur behalf

cradling each other in hugs basically

feeling emotional walls break when you're with that one person particularly

gentle communication. yearning to do more for your lover (!!!!)

affectionate smiles and eyes crinkling with a smile that's directed specially at you.

finding their laugh contagious.

the feeling of being accepted, despite flaws and all

silent domestic acts like being in the kitchen together, dressing up together, them drying ur hair while u sit between their legs

occasionally stolen kisses

or one deep kiss that just lights your world and fulfills your soul and heart.

sleepily nuzzling into each other!!

reaching for each other despite being asleep, with mumbled endearments and whispers of need!!!

laughter coming easily by their side, like happiness is just another day to day thing (this can also be about self love. when u truly love urself and prioritize your own rights and cherish the fact that you're you. happiness becomes beautiful even in solitude)

their fingers buried deep in yo- OOPS.?! :)

hey when you make posts, i just want you to know, thou/thee/thy/thine/ye are like he/you(object)/your/yours/you(subject) okay? "thou art wearing shoes," "i will wear shoes for thee," okay?

you say thine if the next word starts with a vowel and thy if the next word starts with a consonant and they both mean "your" so "thine own shoes," "thy shoes," okay?

and ye means you and refers to the subject of a sentence, "ye members of the brotherhood of shoes," okay? you need this information to create better knight yaoi. i'm personally more interested in nun yuri but we are a community

"Are you drunk? Again?"

"I don't judge you for your coping mechanisms."

"It's not a coping mechanism if you're not coping."

My favourite pieces of dialogue from Sols so far,

except I don't tell you who said it.

"Then look at me like you used to! If you love me so much you'd look at me like you did when Mom was around!" "Oh my god. It's a boy?! I knew you were weird for [redacted] but you never said it was a fucking boy."

"He's dead obviously, but i see 'em. I see bits and pieces of his soul scattered about." "He didn't come back 'ere?" "No... no I haven't seen him since [redacted]." "No, no no. It's not right. We must keep tradition! We have to. I have to make sure of it." "I know what your people think of me, but I wont sit here and play pretend.”

im autistic, thus i have a strange speech pattern, so my 'poems' may not make sense aside from in my own voice. It also means i really struggle with telling tone (ironic as a writer, i know.)

ive enjoyed writing since i learned how, and never really stopped.

idk how to write straight couples as ive never experienced it, so I do it very rarely.

i really like "The tell tale heart"; i think it solidified my want to pursue writing as a career.

i lovee jeff buckley

i own a remginton 2 typewriter, though it doesnt work rn..
