Baron tiered shorts for sale

Baron tiered shorts that have been commissioned for other people are for sale now. There are twelve shorts in total in this bundle. I would advise paying not through Apple if you can avoid it. Apple processing fees have been shot through the roof so anything related to Patreon that is sold through there, is going to be higher.

Milo and MC - Fluff and love declarations

The trinket market was in full swing. It was one of those events where everyone came out to sell, setting up blankets and tables under the eaves of towering trees and twinkle lights. Nothing bigger than the palm of a hand was allowed to be sold, thus creating piles and piles of jangling little bits that had no real purpose in life other than to appease the tender heart of a magpie. 

It was apparently one of Milo’s favorite events of the year.

I watched as he wove through st...

Gabriel and MC - Salsa Dancing

There was a subtlety to music within the Night Market. Somewhere, it was always playing. A distant band plucking out their tune, always three or four alleys over. Not even I understood how it came to be. There were worlds out there that had the background noise of high-pitched whirring. A buzz of electricity. The murmur of whispering souls. But here, there was music. Singing so frequently that when it stopped, an eerie feeling wove its way through the streets. That, I was used to. It was a ba...

Hazel - Fluff

The back door opened with a bang, the wind from outside blew a wave of snow across the apothecary floors. Hazel rushed in, wrapped head to toe in scarves and her warmest shawls. “Chickens secured,” she said, stomping out her shoes. “There are a few possums taking up residence with them. I told them in no uncertain terms that they would need to play nice or I was putting them in this weekend's stew. The possums. Not the chickens.”

I was putting the last of the wood on the fire, t...

Bella/MC/Gabe

“This needs to end, Gabriel.”

“It is not as if I have control over the weather.”

Outside, the ocean waves sprayed upwards in a perfect arc before freezing midair. Snow carried down from the skies a bitterness that the Night Market had not seen for some time, and the shell strewn beaches were a slab of ice that spectral crabs were now skittering across. 

I looked out the window with a worried expression, breathing deeply as I tried to recall any sort of spell or ...

Gabriel - Fluff

There was something strange about the streets when they were empty like this. Frost had crept down from the lanterns to cover the walls, coating the stone with an icy blue hue that cast the world in an eerie sort of silence. Frost cracked beneath booted feet as the Velvet Guard navigated their way through the passageways, helping those who had been trapped during the worst of the bitter wind. The ground was slick and patchy, and the air itself formed crystals before my eyes. It was the terrif...

Belladonna - Fluff

“Please tell me you have some news on when this is going to end.” 

I was shivering. A frigid chill to the air had taken over the entirety of the market as ice crystals formed and sliced through the streets on a bitter blue wind. The world as we knew it was frozen over. Water stood in beautiful, smooth arcs from where pipes had burst. The ocean’s waves looked like frozen glass. And no one, I mean no one, was daring to venture out into the cold in fear of their own feet freezin...

Vampires

Considered to have descended from the Ancients, vampires have been a part of the market since the birth of its society. In the beginning, they took more monstrous forms. Perching atop high cathedrals or buildings that stretched closer to the sky, they waited for their prey before diving down and taking their fill. Before the market walls, vampires were the deepest threat within the society, acting more like their monster counterparts as opposed to contributing members of a flourishing realm. ...

Soooooo....

I was doing so good, guys. So so good. And then everything came to a grinding hault.

My teenager started complaining of stomach pain last week while at her father and I's house. It was bad enough that we were concerned and took her to urgent care because she was throwing up. They sent her home with anti nausea meds. When it didn't get better, we took her back. At this point, she was doubled over in pain. They sent her home and told us to get her some over the counter g...

Milo/MC/Mal Fluff Piece

“I hate this.”

“Oh, come on, Mal, it’s not that bad.”

“Your foot is digging into my hip.”

“Yeah? Well your hip is digging into my foot. Two can play at that game.”

“I will toss you out of here, and you can freeze your balls off. I’ll gladly sit and watch.”

“Jokes on you. My balls are impervious to freezing.”

“I’d be willing to put that to the test.”

There was a splashing sound and the small grunt of a scuffle. Silentl...

July shorts

What kind of story would you like to see for the month of July?

Malcolm and the MC's sweater

My back cracked with a deep stretch as I stumbled out of the bedroom. I had been so tired the night before that after kicking off my shoes, I had fallen to the bed and not moved. It resulted in an awkward sleeping position, and strands of teal hair stuck to the sleep crust of my eyes. Not exactly what I had been hoping for when coming to Malcolm’s last night.

I stumbled into the kitchen, in search of something warm to wake me up. Malcolm was already up, per usual, going about his morn...

Belladonna Mini mart

“The territory has expanded in a way that is entirely unfeasible. Within weeks, it will fall and we garner to lose more in that time than we have gained today. I have certainly explained this to all of you more than once. The romanticized notion of vampires is nothing more than a written farce that was perpetuated in order to sell dime store novels. Please remember that most of those authors are dead. Because I ate them.”

I shook my head from my position on the settee. When I had co...

Gabriel and the romance novel

A/N: This is a commissioned short with the MC of Lyra

“What are you doing?”

I shrieked at the sudden sound of Gabriel’s voice. So near after an afternoon of silence. I hadn't heard the way the door had clicked. Or the telling sound of his boots across the floor. Nor had I heard him take his sword off to hang on the wall. All ritualistic moments he did religiously upon getting home. My cheeks flamed red with the knowledge that I had been so absorbed in my own story that I had...

Malcolm - Mini Mart

“Daddy, look!”

The door burst open as Little Light came barreling in. He nearly tripped over his own feet, both his shoes untied. A piece of paper was clutched in his hand, waved around like a trophy of sorts. 

“Daddy, look,” he shouted again. “Look, look, look!”

Malcolm rose from where we were both sitting on the sofa, arms out as our son ran straight into him. He lifted him up with ease, rearing back as the paper was shoved in his face. It crinkled at the ...

Gabriel - Mini Mart

A/N: I named the son Adam in it because... well, it's Gabriel. But, the name is not cannon. I just could not come up with a clever way to address him.

“Warden, I think you need to see this.”

Gabriel glanced at me. The two of us were in his office, getting ready to end the day. For once, Gabriel was going to come home early. I was looking forward to standing in the kitchen with him, preparing a good meal, and then going to sleep together at a decent time. It was domestic...

Bella's route is available!!

Belladonna's route in chapter eight is now available on the Courtesan tier. Here is a little snippet of what it contains.

My blood coated her lips crimson and her cheeks were flushed with my life. “What have you done?” she whispered. My body was jostled as she pulled me flush to her. I could feel the warmth of her skin. The way her heart almost beat against my own.

“The ritual might have worked,” I said. “Not in the way I expected, but it might have worked....

Chapter Eight - Belladonna

The chapter eight Belladonna route is now up and ready to go!!!!

I know there are some confusing passages in chapter seven when Bella first arrives in the market. I will be taking a look at those next week. Currently, I will be heading out to Seattle for a few days.

Hazel - Minimarts

Flour coated the walls. The ceiling. The wisps were even covered in the dusty dregs. I stood, looking at it all, and wondering how one would get a glob of dough to hang from the ceiling above like a chandelier. Was it the chandelier? A loud shriek kept me from answering my own question.  

We were raising wild hens. That’s what Hazel and I claimed. When we had our son, we had vowed that other than rules to help keep him safe, we would let him roam. Explore. Less than a year l...

ABC Prompt - Hair

Belladonna-  Her thighs clenched around me as her body bowed and a gush of warmth coated my chin. I didn’t stop. My tongue flicked across the bundle of nerves, finger relentlessly pushing in and out as I brought her to peek. Her hand threaded through the locks of my hair, pulling. Tugging at the loose strands. I tipped my gaze upwards, rewarded with the curve of her body bent backwards. The way her breast were pert, nipples hard against the cool night air. But most of ...

Hello lovelies!

Update on Chapter Eight. Bella's route is pretty much done. There is a NSFW scene that has yet to be written due to my mother being in town, but the entirety of her route during that chapter is now finished. I will be having that out in the next day or two. :) I think the next route I will be writing is Gabriel's, which should be an interesting route, giving that his mental state is not great.

Also working on starting up with lore posts yet again. This month will b...

Milo and Minimart

“You cannot do that!”

“Yes you can.”

“No, you cannot. It is against the rules, daddy.”

“We’re making up the game. We make the rules.”

The standoff was a daily occurrence between the two of them. Most mornings, I awoke to find Milo and one of the twins, sitting in the living room and glaring at each other. This morning, was no different. Our daughter, who we affectionately called Min, sat with her arms crossed, hair wild around her shoulders, glaring a...

Milo - Fluff

“Well, hello, darlin’. Fancy meetin’ you here.” 

Milo looped his arm within my own, navigating us haphazardly down the three steps into the bar. The old skate rink had been repurposed into a sprawling tavern with individualized barrels set up throughout the establishment, all containing their own bartender specializing in brews from around the realms. There was a small hobbe that sold only fae spirits. A selkie that sold most of the ghost wine that could be seen floating th...

Hazel - Fluff

Never in my life had I figured that I would be in a position to be surrounded by so many feathers or low sounding clucks. Chickens were alien to me. They were practically alien to the market. Yet, Hazel had purchased several of them and had forced everyone she knew to build her a state-of-the-art coop where she proceeded to carve sigils to keep the chickens safe from wisps that presumed the form of foxes. It had been a long couple of days of figuring out how to build the structure. Of hearing...

Cooking with Gabriel - Commissioned short

A/N: Written for the Baron tiered person shorts

The bags were set on the counter, the earthy smell of basil and oregano filling the kitchen. I was shifting nervously near the stove, my hands reaching out as if I should turn it on. Pre-heating was a thing, right?

“We are going to start with something simple,” Gabriel said. He was dressed down today in a pair of black slacks and a soft blue sweater. The sleeves were rolled up to his elbows and his hair was out of the gel cast he...
