Hello!

I'm uselesscalciumsticks, but you can call me Bones or Eli. Because that's what bones are. Useless calcium sticks.

Anyway!

Been doing creative writing for... a while? I guess? But I've never actually published anything (or shown anyone my work) till recently. Finishing my final year at school so I won't be the most active person here, but I'll try my best.

Most of my fic will be Cave Story. Love that game. Figured I'd add some stuff to the tag that isn't QuotexCurly or really weird porn. Though there's some good, inspiring stuff in there as well, don't get me wrong!

I also write some Kirby stuff, though at the time of writing there's only one I've posted, and I don't have any stories planned. Maybe I'll do some Psychonauts fic, if I ever escape Cave Story hell. Or whatever my latest obsession is.

I've got a Tumblr, (@empressofsquids) where I reblog art or post my own! Also have an AO3 account, same name as this one.

CURRENT PROJECTS

- Plan B

Multi-chapter fic that I'm writing fuelled entirely by insomnia, Running Hell and a very bad pun I made once. Mom-orin. Hah.

Updates... I'd like to say semi-regularly, but I've got school and uh, crappy focus. It's mostly planned out, though, so hopefully updates won't be too far apart.

EDIT: Cancelled and deleted due to lack of motivation. Sorry.

PLANNED PROJECTS

- Shards [placeholder name]

I am an absolute sucker for post-best ending Misery hanging out with the Sakamotos, whether reluctantly or willingly. So hey! Gonna write this, maybe. Plot is still a bit up in the air, but after the Undead Core and Ballos' death, is the red crystal truly gone? Or does a piece remain, fuelled by hate...?

- Dust and Machines

Hoooh. This one's a Kirby one. I've actually written a fair chunk out, but I want it to be Long(tm). Also, I completely forgot about it until recently. Maybe I'll pick it up after Plan B.

Basic plot summary: Susie and Adeleine go to Shiver Star together for different reasons. There is sadness, assumptions and I'm hoping at least a little bit of Meta Knight sassiness.

Alright, enough of this. Gonna go eat something.
