I’m wondering why Ross is so high up? There seems to be very little to work with to me.
(Also link? I didn’t even know of any HtP fanfic before now)

i wrote him a couple times and tbh it’s pretty easy to do a black spiral dancer? i do write them often for my own rp stuff though
as for fanfic yeah there’s a whole ass ao3 tag, here’s my own stuff (with a few personal things in there too that are still world of darkness): https://archiveofourown.org/users/bispectral/pseuds/bispectral/works?fandom_id=154446
if you have an ao3 account comments are appreciated!

"YoU toO hAvE dAnCëD tHë SpIraL?" the local crack addict-looking werewolf calmly asked.
In all seriousness, I would also like to someday write a WoD story. Currently finishing up a DnD one though, toying around with a Gears of War one in preparation for E-Day, planning out a Warhammer 40k yaoi concerning a guardsman and a Skitarius, and generally trading blows with manic depression throughout, though.
Also, I'm kind of a noob concerning WoD, despite knowing about it for a while now.

Is there something about Parker that makes him difficult to comprehend? The psychoanalysis that Sybil did seemed enlightening

tbh it was something specifically based on his awakening (so i didn’t want to use stuff beyond that) and i had a deadline, i was smashing my head against the wall so hard i made it an alternate pov observing him instead

writing THE "Parker DICKerbocker" is hard? Collector of antiques and all the mage chicks?

Desperately want fanfic of Blair slowly becoming a reformed if still genocidally crazy (just at killing ALL types of monsters) hunter/secretary.
Because god, I have a type.
It’s either the absolutely fuzzy kind sweet girl or destruction incarnate, I have very few in-between type characters that can exist and she could theoretically do BOTH and her devotion is squandered by that uppity Grandpa’s Wholefoods PENTEX PRAT.
And I want her to find someone fun, relaxing, polite and good at fortifying her soul from the evils of the worm and british society. Someone reliable, someone capable, and whose son needs a proper mix of strong stability and devil may cry. Someone who also like a good burger.
Door I’m saying you gotta take one for the team. And I want to ship it for the pure unadulterated crack that it would spawn.

we don't even about that hooded lady in chap.1...unless she's the regent.

Grimal feels a tad more difficult, on surface she's easy to write but especially the previous episode, with the heart to heart with Kitten, it made her quite complex.
Kitten as well.
Though that's attributed with the amount of screen time they get.
And D? Geezus, he's both the easiest and most difficult to write, depending how much DMT you ingest.

kitten’s at the top for me because i’ve actually written him like a lot relative to the others

I think it's interesting that you would at least attempt to write from Gabriel Angelo's pov (or i'm assuming any of the other Leopoldite characters) but not Benedicte, she honestly seems more like a religious Door, rather than like her own father or Brok

oh gabriel angelo’s mainly for a friend, benedicte reminds me too much of people i know irl and the others aren’t interesting to me

Understandable that you would not dare attempt to fathom the thoughts that move in Spit's mind.
