Really indulgent with all these AUs but most of them are just for fun and ways to explore relationship threads that can't be explored in the OG #TangWIP . There's a lot of romantic potential with most of the characters Tang connects to, but who she ends up with is heavily based on circumstance.

Nothing from Succubus project for this, but #TangWIP is thriving with AU versions. Primarily a Fairytale AU and a University AU. Each AU considers a slightly different shape to the relationships in OG Tang. Each AU involves a little hint that they're connected in every universe.

When the king is so weak to toes/feet that just giving the cute knight a foot massage leads to an orgasm

Sorry Leto. Pathetic but adorable.

This post is mostly about Artemis from #TangWIP

she/her pronouns and calls herself a woman because it's easy but when you get her talking the truth is more complicated. "Not a boy like Apollo." And she's butch.
Listen sometimes my characters get to be just as confused about gender & sexuality as I am. & I love them for it.
But it also means sometimes my characters are "wrong" about who they are. Or intentionally don't reveal that self to other people. Or try their best with the words they have

#TangWIP : $11. Hardly anyone cis, het & male

#SailsWIP : $14? A teenager, an ignorable guy, the father figure to the MC, and a huge simp fanboy for MC

#FallWIP: $13. Two antagonists & an unfortunate guy stuck in the situation with MC.

At least how the current drafts stand
Your $10 book is assessed a tariff of 10% for every named cishet male character with a speaking role.

How much does it cost?

In the OG version of #TangWIP Birc & Tang become friends through school. And Birc gets to go on a little gender journey where gender neutral terms feel less and less fitting. Birc is still nonbinary but realizes that more masculine terms are preferred. Tilts things to he/they.
March 31, 2025 at 2:47 PM
Nothing published yet but a lot of my characters are trans! Or at least gender nonconforming. Or questioning.

My fave rn is Birc from #TangWIP. In Fairytale Edition they're the princeling (a pet name) who catches the attention of a handsome knight Tang. Synthesizes their own HRT with alchemy.
In honor of TDOV, tell me about your trans characters again! If you're a trans author specifically please also share your buy links below so people can find them 💖 #WritingPrompt

I know i don't have anything published yet, but I want everyone to know that you can't ship whoever the fuck you want (I do). Canon or not, taboo or not. Have fun. (I do). There's a reason I have several #TangWIP options. OG, Fairytale, University. A Tang multiverse, if you will.
March 18, 2025 at 4:17 PM
Another key trans character is Birc! Nonbinary trans man. In the OG edition of TangWIP, Birc uses pretty gender neutral terminology, but as Birc grows and changes as a character & gets helpful advice from family, Birc leans more into masculine terms.
March 15, 2025 at 6:23 PM
A lot of my characters are trans!
If I talk about all of them I'd be here all day 😅 so I'll focus on some from #TangWIP

Tang: trans masc. Part of the whole story (multiple arcs) is about Tang feeling safe and loved enough to start questioning gender instead of just sweeping it under the rug.
Tell me about the trans characters in your books! What are they like? What do they mean to you? #WritingPrompt

Periodic reminder that #TangWIP isn't meant to be a depiction of super normal healthy relationships.

Blah blah blah problematic age gap
Blah blah blah awkward guilt-ridden semi-accidental incest
Blah blah blah substance use (mostly in the first bit)

But they're happy (mostly). It's fiction

First dialogue between Leto & Tang in #TangWIP (OG Edition). They knew each other a bit prior to this interaction:

"It’s lovely to see you, Tang. Unfortunately, Artemis and Apollo are out right now and I’m unsure when they’ll be back... Would you like some tea?”

“Tea would be lovely, Lady Khan.”
What's the first line of dialogue spoken between your MC and their love interest/bestie? #WritingPrompt

Fantasy T-gel (alchemy trans-ing) as lube for a trans boy prince and a transmasc knight (who's also a princess)

Because of the episodes a side story, or a hint of something in one episode can become it's own episode at some point.
Another example is Artemis' difficulty in getting over her feelings for Tang. It's peppered into a lot of episode until eventually it gets it's own space.

What's fun about #TangWIP being written in "episodes" is that there's a lot more flexibility for side stories.
My fave example is a few mentions of Birc doing summer training & making friends. It'll become it's own episode focus later (one of these friends has a connection to Tang.)

Anyone in the #TangWIP is likely to have social media (except in the Fairytale Edition) but it isn't something I've thought of much.

Tang is wishy-washy about it. A love-hate relationship. Mostly uses it to look at stuff her friends send her.

Leto uses it for bookish stuff, research interests.
If your MC(s) had social media, how would they act? What kind of account would they run? What platform would be their favorite? #WritingPrompt

Featuring werewolf princess Artemis, and runaway princess-turned-knight Tang.
Staying away from anything too spicy for this one, just some cuddling.😂

I write #TangWIP to a bit of a break from the typical romantic plot to focus more on heartbreak/ unsatisfying relationships while reaching for joy.

I try to ask the question of how it feels to love somebody deeply while your broken heart still stings for a different love that you can't shake.

I've posted some old drafts of WIPs on Fictionpress & on AO3 I've got a couple chapters of an idea for a Greek Myth themed project #FuryWIP and chapters for #TangWIP (the university AU)

Super super rough drafts
March 3, 2025 at 7:28 PM
Leto reads but I haven't gotten to the point of assigning her a favorite anything, probably some universe-specific.
She enjoys nonfiction (in the university AU she's a history professor). But she probably also really like super complex epic fantasy & sci-fi. Books that make her think.
#TangWIP
Do any of your MCs have a favorite book? Is it a 'real' book or one that only exists in their world? What genre do they like? #WritingPrompt
February 28, 2025 at 5:24 PM
In some ways, yes, others, no. Tang has broken hearts but that's rarely been her intention. Close friends that become too close, a flirtation that expects more or gets complicated, and then at least one of them is a little bruised. Changes a bit with Leto & Cory

February 25, 2025 at 12:54 PM
Bit of a tricky one, since Tang is a natural flirt. When Tang likes someone her flirting gets shyer, not wholly reserved but the tone changes to uncertainty instead of confidence. And she's more willing to have conversations that don't involve flirtatious jokes.
