    just beat the radiance two days ago so i started scouring hollow knight fics and wow i think im in love. the character voices are so pronounced and feel so accurate for characters who barely speak much due to the nature of hollow knight as a game not having much dialogue. this is the kind of writing i strive to even come close to matching. the comedy, the angst, and everything in between just flows so smoothly its baffling

    Summary

    "Clark. What the hell is this," Lois asks, staring at Clark's Bruceman WIP folder. Clark's first instinct is to fly away, but that would still leave his fic on display for her to see. His second instinct is to blast a hole straight through his laptop screen with his heat vision, which isn't much better.


    Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead.

    Summary

    Children, sometimes, are a means to an end. Reinhard hates to be anything but kind, but this is what being a Sword Saint means. They will be born to pass on that blessing to them or their own children. They will be born, Reinhard will shake off the worry that he will be like his father and his father’s father, and they will serve their family as Reinhard has. Children are meant for this, no matter how nicely Reinhard tries to treat his own children in the future. He can never run from this. This is love, and perhaps one can be loved back if they do enough for another.

    Or: five moments throughout Reinhard’s life where he loves his father, and one moment where his father absolutely loves him back. (Right?)

    Summary

    “The concept is simple, however. Two artifacts that complement each other in origin, magic type, and usage may, when combined, temporarily produce something greater than the sum of their parts. It’s a “hit or miss” phenomenon, as Link likes to call things. Artifacts are rarely built to be companionable, and when they are, it is often a matter of chance. But it is fun to think about, is it not? For example, a magical lens and, say, perhaps a portal, if companionable, may create a portal to a dimension between dimensions -- to a place that is both hypothetical and real at the same time. A lucid, living vision of the most sincere kind of lies.”

    + + + +

    Legend had always been far more curious, intelligent, and mature than any of his reincarnations give him credit for. But when he finds that his Magic Mirror and Time's Lens of Truth fuse into an artifact that reveals each hero's worst nightmares and deepest traumas, one of Legend's defining characteristics overpowers the others.

    AKA: Where Legend can't keep his nose out of everyone else's nightmares and ends up creating a real-world nightmare for himself.

    i would reread to catch all the small details and the foreshadowing, but i think that might actually break me emotionally. 20/10 would sleep-deprivation over again.
