Welcome to the Abyss

I am the being that dwells herein! You can call me El, Eldin, Martin, Mayday, or something else that catches your fancy. Acceptable pronoun sets are ve/ven/ver/venself, they/them, or it/its.

How to use ve/ven pronouns for me.

I’m an undergrad student studying editing and publishing, and a nerd about linguistics, Beowulf, history of the English language, Redwall, writing, medical things (somewhat), and books in general. I appreciate combat arts greatly, though I have limited experience overall (a few years TKD, a few months HEMA, about a year and a half Belegarth). I currently work as a copy editor and typesetter at an ecology journal.

I have several sideblogs to keep things organized for my own sake. They are not particularly active rn because I have low energy a lot of the time.

@elrallin is my writing-related sideblog
@memberqueer-mormon is a sideblog for my religious commentary as a queer Mormon
@myswordshallwieldforme is a Redwall sideblog that’s still getting off the ground, oops

Also I frequently vanish without notice because of School Things. Don’t worry, I’m ok! Just tired!

i had a dream that time travel was invented and too many people choose to travel back in time to save the titanic from sinking (the question of whether unsinking of the titanic deserved so much attention in the face of human history was the subject of both heavy academic and online discourse), which caused a rift in the space-time-continuum that led to the titanic showing up indiscriminately all over the world’s oceans and sea in various states of sinking.

this caused a lot of issues both in terms of fixing said space-time-continuum and in terms of nautical navigation, and after a long and heavy battle in the international maritime organization it was decided that the bureaucratic burden of dealing with this was to be upon Ireland, much to their dismay. the Irish Government then released an app for all sailors and seafarers so they could report titanic sightings during their journeys, even though they heavily dissuaded you from reporting them given the paperwork it caused.

anyway i woke up with a clear image of the app in my head and needed to recreate it for all of you:

Pick a (hopefully) iconic villain death from my WIP steampunk fantasy trilogy

Struck by lightning during a rooftop duel

Drowned under a replica of their iconic printing press

Dropped from a disintegrating airship over the ocean

Eaten by the dragon they imprisoned

Stabbed with a fallen star fragment

*Dropped from a disintegrating airship by their abused ex

*stabbed with a fallen star fragment they betrayed family for

always a sucker for a printing press related accident
