Got to the part of the radiodust murder duet where I get to write Angel in combat, and every time I get that opportunity I remember how much I fucking LOVE playing w/ the speculative biology of a demonic humanoid spider. He's the pinkest, prettiest horror monster I ever did see and he terrifies me.

AotM!Al finds his concept of IT-ness deeply empowering, and while this doesn't help w/ his tendency to set himself apart rather than seek support from others, there IS something to be said for how it opens up a gender-null space for him to experience his identity in isolation.

(It also keeps him from having to examine some foundational traumas he could do to address, but...) Embracing monstrosity also frees Alastor from conventional beauty standards. He's under no obligation to be pleasant to look at - in fact, provoking visceral reactions just by existing is the POINT. +

Actually, I'm gonna pull this for a thread, bc I've talked before about AotM!Al's pronouns being he/it, + how identifying as a monster has soothed his lifelong neurodivergent difficulty identifying w/ humanity, but idk how deep I got into the gender aspect here, and I have THOUGHTS. +

Scenario, where Alastor loses both of his antlers due to the stress after his mental breakdown happens in fallen radio tower.
(That can happen to deer in the wild, that's basically where the inspiration came from.)

On one hand, I'm devastated for every artist who now has to rebuild the client base they spent years curating on twt, in a time when economic security is glass-fragile.
On the other, there are so many artists I've missed since I fled twt, and I can't say I'm not excited that I might see them again.

When I ship radiodust I want them to bring out the best and bloodiest in each other and work toward forging a better future for themselves w/o compromising their own monstrosity. When I ship radiostatic I want them to fuck up themselves and everything around them in fun and interesting new ways.

I think a lot of the appeal of radiostatic for me is that they're both likable enough to celebrate when things are going well for them, and despicable enough to celebrate when everything is going to shit, no matter which of them currently prevails.

Oh! What if one of his favorite mediums is reading screenplays? It would combine a love of cinema and prose, as well as incorporate his professional competencies. He genuinely could write way better films than Val or Travis, bc he's been studying the art & theory for years.

If Alastor had a tapeworm, it'd be one he voluntarily ingested in order to fatten it up over time and store as a cache of nutrients. Then on a lean day when the Horror Hunger is REALLY digging at him, he turns his digestive system on the worm and reclaims the stolen calories as a treat.

Think I'm going to start reblogging some of the fic preview posts I made earlier in this account for the benefit of new followers. Saw that AotM has over 700,000 words and not sure you want to invest that kind of time? No sweat, enjoy a charcuterie tray of the best bits when you pop by.

Hc that Alastor enjoys Christmas ironically, for the obnoxious over-the-top loudness of it, but he personally observes and cares about the Solstice. It's the night when you know every day from here forward is one step further from the winter bleak, & the chronic pain/seasonal depression it brings.

At the end of the day how Vox took Alastor‘s rejection and acted after it, was his decision and choice. Alastor didn’t owe Vox anything.
Was Alastor mean? Yes. Did Vox have to lash out and stalk him for over 60+ years because he got rejected? No.

Broke: Alastor is a hypocrite for calling X on XYZ thing he also does.
Woke: lmao, how do you think he knows how to make it sting? He knows what would rankle HIM & turns it on others.
Bespoke: He knows what he's doing, and he's doing it on purpose. Seeing him exposed for it will be half the fun.

Re: your last sentence, I've pondered before that if I want to cohabitate w/ a life companion, I could wait till I'm 50+ & find a divorcee w/ teen+ kids who need a safe, supportive addition to their family, & find a niche that doesn't require me to pay the sex tax to have someone to live with. 😂

Though I'm charmed by the idea, I don't have the experience to fully understand what a QPR would look or feel like, but writing radiodust is letting me explore it along with them, and I'm learning a little more about myself every chapter. And I think that's what seeing yourself in fiction is for.
