I feel wrong.
The doctor tells me that everything is ok and I am ok and that I am not really hurt and it’s all in my head and I had a nightmare but I feel wrong and she’s lying I think. I think I would like it more if she was lying because if she’s not lying then she...

Whassup you juicy thangs, it's ya girl back again with some sexy new words and some delicious new ideas! Loved the turn that this took, and what it says for Ilia as a character and the way conflicts can work here. Look forward to some more goodies tomorrow!

Unexpected fat fucking honker of a chapter! Sorry things have been so slow lately, folks- I think I've been doing a bit less than ideal! Working on it, but also trying to find a good balance. Don't want to hurt myself by pushing, don't want to hurt myself by falling behind and letting myself slip back into old mindsets / habits. Wish me luck on that front, and know that your support means ever so much to me, and that I'm going to continue providing beautiful enjoyable goodies however I ca...

Yippeee! Chapter! Earlier AGAIN! A shorter one to boot, but it was a fun challenge even writing from this POV in the first place, lol. This might be some slightly less traditional training, so to speak, but I wanted to keep the naming pattern up for now, and we can call this training for the larger factions in the world, hmm? Enjoy!

Alrighty! Revisiting some non-Raika POVs for the first time in a little while! Feels like it was the right time for it, and this'll help the flow a bit, I hope. Still not any Imperial POVs, not until arc 9, but hopefully Raika's current crew of fuckups, monsters and demigods will continue to offer us plenty of goodies!

At last, another 3k chapter! Took a while to build to, but I'm very, very happy with it, and it's early enough that I can at least start on another! Finally, we get some insight into why Raika's been pushing the way she has, why she's still unstable, and why she still has so much further left to go. Nevermind all these reality-altering world-ending superfoes, she'd probably explode from plain ol' Heart Demons if she ever got regular spiritual organs...

Sleepy! Glad for chapter tho! Enjoy! Having fun highlighting some of how Raika's flaws are laying down some cracks, while also expanding on some of that juicy Fallen Kingdom vibe-set. Not a lot happens plot-wise, but I felt that reinforcing character and some worldbuilding was more important for this one. Enjoy!

Aaaand we're back! Boy howdy what a JOY it is to introduce a fresh challenge for Raika, lol. As much as I enjoy hitting her with the large-scale super-powers and having her grow joyously, her roots very much remain "if I do this hard enough, it breaks or I do", lol.

Raaagh. Only one but I'm switching back to RfR. I love VISCERAE but I think the mental health, burnout, and sleep deprivation are triple-dipping on the unfun fucking, so to speak. Still glad I got this one out, and I think it turned out well, but we'll see.

A bit on the shorter side for this one, but it's late and my trip has been more of a bad time than expected, lol. Additionally, Patreon has decided to suck even harder, and has removed all formatting changes when I copy and paste, including shit like italics and bolding. I can stand not having other fonts, but that's a step too far for me. For this chapter, we'll officially be trying out a new format, and I'm going to do my best to see if I can set up an...

Whoof. This one took a WHILE. I wanted it to be an easy re-entry point to VISCERAE and instead it turned out heavier and harder than that.
But! Good news- I like it. Shit's poetic. Next chapter we're back to Ilia's POV, but enjoy this little prelude to the coming dangers, from the eyes of one which has none, but sees much.

In the words of the late great captain Holt- Boom! Did it! Ha Ha! Had it both ways! No regrets.
At laaaast! More Xianxia tropes to play with, more Raika-ness to bite and gnaw and change them with, all to the tune of "tee hee I'm gonna have some fun with this". We didn't quite get to an action scene this go-round, but she's coming, hold your horses! In the meantime, enjoy some of the savage joy I...

I'm trying to find a balance between infodumping and proper weaving, so I'm holding off on just disgorging the worldbuilding about the Republic all in one go, lol. Raika's decided that she's going to pour some accelerant on things though, so it'll be a fun chapter either way! This one's got info, good times, and plans to come, and next chapter (still aiming for tonight!) is gonna have just delightful payoffs I hope!

I have failed thee, and meself! No double-chapter for me, not when I'm already so tired. I shan't sacrifice waking up earlier for a desperate scramble for more chapter. We'll just have to see if I find the time / headspace to push the backlog a bit while doing RfR! Either way, I liked this chapter, and it's nice to end on a heftier, wordier note. I hope you enjoy, and that it leaves you wanting more! Next few of VISCERAE will be all about finding what this mill is all about, and what's li...

Another shorter one! I don't really know what's going on with that tbh! I think I might need to swap to RfR a few days early, or maybe take a day off and just brainstorm? Dunno! Excited for where this is going, but V needs a little more tlc than RfR did at the start!
