It's my birthday month so time to unleash all the stories in the works. Both big and small.
I'm becoming more active on discord so anyone just a fan of fanfiction, any of my current or future works, or just wanna vibe, come on through.

Zelwinds. A continent known for its various landscapes from the dry deserts and volcanic land masses to the frozen tundra and windy plains. The landscape is well known for the legend regarding Furies. Omnipotent weapons that hold the power to grant wishes and more. Little else is known so many call into question what mysteries revolve around such sacred artifacts as well as how such weapons tie in with the Goddess and Vile God. Two divine beings said to have clashed once upon a time, long, long ago…
From beyond the sea, three figures amongst hundreds of others look to the nearing continent. As a deafening horn blares overhead, three figures peer toward the approaching landmass.
The first is a young male. Scruffy, black, hair and vermilion eyes, he wears a simple black jacket overtop a loose red shirt and black pants shoes a combination of the two colors.
Besides him, his younger sister. Like her brother, she too has the same shade of eyes with milky-blue hair. Much of it is hidden by the dress' hood she wears. The outfit itself is black with white accents, various studs, and buckles to match her large collar, fingerless gloves, and black boots.
The last, easily the oddest looking of the three. A pale girl with bright ice blue eyes and very long flowing white hair. On the top of her head are two big fox ears, both of which have blue and cyan-themed diamond-shaped earrings with white accents. She's donned in an oversized kimono-like dress with ruffles and blue ribbons.
"Missed this look, Karin." The sister mumbles.
"Awe, thanks Ethel! We've been away for so long, I didn't have a need to wear it! Now that we're back, however, I just had to for such a momentous occasion! But your new look is waaaaaaay cuter!"
Feigning a small blush by pulling her hoodie down, the male can only chuckle at their antics.
Before long, the ship docks for the three to grab the first taxi available.
"Where y'all headed?"
"Zelwinds City."

So many things to do, so little time to do them all. Research needed to be studied, ideas needed to be written. Where to start, where to start?
Wait. Where were her clothes again?
"Harley Harler! How many times must I remind you to pick up after yourself?!"
Oh yeah. That's where.
"I keep saying you don't have to do that. It's easier for me to find my outfits this way."
"Easier?! Have you no class?! Oh, why am I even…" He sighs, placing a pile of missing clothes neatly on an un-made bed. "Harley, at this rate you won't be able to find yourself any to wed."
"The only thing I wanna marry is my research because I know that'll keep my interest. Now, hand me my shirt."
"PUT ON A BRA FIRST FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY!"
Tossing some coins at the counter of the inn, both depart to be met with the bright, sunny, rays.
With practically perfect skin, bright green eyes and noticeable breasts not at all hidden, Harley sports shoulder length hair pulled into a low ponytail reaching her hips. Donned in a white top tied underneath an orange jacket with black pants where her left thigh is cut held only by straps, she wears black shoes with a single orange line on each one, a pair of brown and black gloves, and a black choker with a hoop dangling from it.
Walking in tandem with Harley likes Bahus. He's a middle-aged man with a shaved head, wearing suspenders over his naked body and a fur jacket.
"It sure is a scorcher, huh, Bahus?" Harley calls shielding herself from the brightness.
"The weather reports did note it would be fairly warm. I suppose that is good given your choice of attire."
"Are you badmouthing my fashion sense?" She gives a light scoff.
"You have that?" He wonders in amusement.
"Laugh it up all you want, Bahus. Our next destination is already in sight and I can just feel a breakthrough coming!"
"And pray tell, where might our next trip be?"
"Where else? The epicenter of Zelwind itself! Zelwinds City!"

Within a silent auditorium lies a young woman. Despite every seat being filled by a body, new and old alike, none dare utter even a whisper.
As a single light shines from above, the woman's fingers lift to the harp before her. Delicately, they move, manifesting a melody that sends waves of tranquility that decompresses the infinite souls within earshot.
To the young woman, this was a simple case of offering any a blissful moment. All things must come to an end. Whether one has experienced a dreadful occurrence or another has been blessed by the Goddess herself, she would ensure that for the time within her space, her domain, any and all would relish in this peace.
With the final chords strung, a lull of silence comes before the waves of applause answer to her work. Giving a small smile of comfort, she stands to bow. Looking to the children at the edge of the stage smiling and waving, she returns the gestures in kind before retreating backstage.
Exiting the building following business talk, she basks in the radiant star's warmth. A beautiful day like today was a good day and giving those her music must have made at least one person's day better. Surely…
"That was a beautiful performance, Milady!" A female voice sounds.
From a hiding place somewhere atop the building floats a white, rounded little creature with a manic, blank expression on its face. It has big silver horns with pink and gold markings on the top of its head. Its wings are pink with dark coloring inside matching its long thorny tail with a heart at the tip.
"Khalara, how many times must I remind you? Just Marianna is fine." She smiles. "Goodness, after all the years we've been together, why must you struggle with that?" She giggles nuzzling the creature.
"Hehe, I can't help it! You'll always-"
"Be Miliady." Marianna cuts off. "Yes, yes, I am aware."
Departing with her faithful at her side, it isn't long before Khalara speaks up once more.
"By the way, what made you wish to alter your outfit Milady?"
Rolling her eyes at the name, she inspected herself.
She was aware of her pale skin and hair along with her golden orbs so she wanted something that contrasted in a good way. Her last outfit had too many bright colors and the more she thought upon it, the more she realized it wasn't the best option per se.
What she held naturally was light so something dark was the best way to go about it. Given how often she's performing and on the move, she wanted an outfit that was comfortable to move a lot in while still retaining a form of elegance when needed. Thus, this dark-themed dress with white highlights became her answer. with white accenting and frills placed below the sleeves of each arm and at the skirt. With gloves, a string tied eloquently around her neck, a black rose, and a simple yet cute braid added to her hairstyle; Marianna found her new self quite the improvement.
"I just felt like a change was needed. That's all. I couldn't have done this alteration without your assistance, of course, Khalara."
"I aim to please, teehee! Where are we going for our next gig?"
"The place where opportunities lay awaiting any who dares to claim them."
"Like a boyfriend or girlfriend~. Wait, why not both!"
Stiffening, she has to force back the heat from rising to her cheeks.
"Ahem, Khalara, I can only handle so many jokes. Where we're going to next… is Zelwinds City."
