[Observing Trifles]

⇀ About Trifles: Thirty-three years old, EST. Willing to write on forums or Discord servers. PM for my Discord tag.

⇀ Pairings: I write stories involving m/m, m/enby, and m/transfemme pairings.

⇀ Genres: The genres I most enjoy include, in order of preference - modern fantasy, supernatural, and horror.. Historical is a possibility, provided we are a bit loose with accuracy, as I am not an expert in any particular period. I'm less interested in slice-of-life. I fall most in love with fantastic, whimsical universes featuring figures and monsters of myth and folklore (think of Neil Gaiman, Andrzej Sapkowski, Guillermo del Toro, et al). I would strongly encourage the inclusion of romantic elements, but I prefer slow burns that are self-contained and not necessarily the focal points.

⇀ Post Length: I average four paragraphs with approximately ~400 words per post, and I would prefer something similar from my writing partners. I do, however, put an emphasis on quality over quantity, so I'll happily take two concise, tidy paragraphs over four paragraphs of meaningless fluff.

⇀ Response Rate: For the most part, I can promise to try and deliver an average of two posts per week, depending on my schedule. I have a full-time job and spend my weekends with my partner, so while I may be online for chatting or general socializing, I might not always have the energy to write or respond to lengthy messages. I will, however, almost always have time for cool Instagram reels or pictures of cute dogs.

⇀ Sexual Dynamics: I write all sorts, but I greatly prefer pairings that include switches and variants of the "traditional" top/bottom dynamic. I have no problem with folks who prefer to play submissive bottoms exclusively, but it's not usually my cup of tea. My favorite character type to play is a power bottom with a hard Dom lean or a true switch. My favorite character type to play against is a submissive service top (fave) or a true switch (runner-up). Hard Doms who strictly top are nice sometimes - I can/have/will play or play against them, but it's rare.

⇀ Sexual Content: All of my stories will involve smut to varying degrees. I enjoy writing adult content. I have very few limits regarding what I will and will not include, and I have been known to write stories involving fairly extreme content (note: nothing that violates site rules). That said, none of this means that I must have an ultra-kinky story or sex on every page in order to enjoy myself. I'm flexible on the ratios with which we include sexual elements, provided we discuss our expectations beforehand. I haven't yet made a "complete" list of sexual acts that I find acceptable in my stories, but I'm happy to discuss this privately.

⇀ A Note: If none of the following prompts/concepts/pairings appeal but you believe we're compatible writing partners, feel free to reach out with your own ideas.

I have a strong interest in stories involving pairings of humans and beasts.
Examples of the creatures I'm most interested in include wolves, lizardmen, naga, dragons, among many others.
Basically just give me a huge, brutish, nasty, snarling creature with a mouthful of sharp teeth and I'll jump at the opportunity.
Sentience is key. Sapience is... optional.

Side Note: I'm rubbish at playing monsters myself, so such roles will fall to my writing partners.

⇀ Summary: There are very few things smut/kink-related to which I'll say no. Very, very few. While I'm perfectly fine with leaving things in vanilla territory, my tastes can and do lean toward the extreme. With the exception of things involving watersports, feet, and outright rape (dub-con is okay, provided we discuss it), please assume I'm into it. But for the sake of clarity, below you'll find a list of things that I'm especially into.

D/s dynamics face-slapping pain play hair-pulling exotic cocks sounding/urethra play incest light degradation/humiliation

Draenai Male 73 years old Hex/ras; spider demon

Soundtrack for a Grumpy Monster Hunter

^{I'm on the last train to nowhere
And it's runnin' right on time
I'm in no rush to get there
Riding to the end of the line}

Among other things, Drae is a spirit trapper and monster hunter living in New Orleans' French Quarter. When he's not busy hunting ghouls and banishing ghosts, he can be found in a dusty little shop just off Jackson Square, where he sells an assortment of baubles and antiques as a means of explaining his cash income to the IRS.

He doesn't have much of a personal life, which is largely by design. While not malicious by nature, he is a reclusive spider demon, a solitary creature whose dominant traits render him ornery, cantankerous, defensive, and often dismissive of others. That said, he has a fairly tight inner circle of people for whom he'd lay down his life without a second thought - though he'd rather keep that to himself.

This grumpy boy's hobbies include reading, taxidermy, skeletal articulation, and piano (anything that doesn't involve talking). In a relationship, he works best with golden retriever/sunshine types who are willing to be submissive service tops.

You are the grand designer
