My ongoing fantasy series about an aspiring blacksmith and her misadventures with giant bear people as she journeys to find out what happened to her father who’s been missing for many years.
Overall, it’s your typical “two people from very different backgrounds at first clash, but come to an understanding and venture forth on an epic journey together to find the people they’ve lost, slowly growing closer” type of slow-burn fantasy adventure story, only one person is a young blacksmith and the other is an actual giant monster.
The story features my original species of giants called “Kanai” and takes place in a fictional place called Kellabor. Basically picture late-medieval fantasy Russia and giant bear-sphinxes.

I wanted to kill my friends with kindness by drawing themselves with their rightful “villainous” Pokemon husbandos (including my own hehee) in a Modern AU.
“I pledge that I’ll be number one,” says sixteen-year-old Bakugou, his hands in his pockets as he brazenly regards the whole world on camera.
Twenty-three-year-old Bakugou Katsuki stares at Kirishima’s phone with a haunted look on his face. His cheeks are hollowed, his lips quivering. There’s something vulnerable about his expression, the video affecting him much, much worse than previous scandals have. You’ve never heard much about his school days in detail, only knowing that he as a first-year student at Yuuei isn’t the Bakugou you’d recognize now.
You and everyone in this room knows that he is far from that sixteen-year-old.
The rest of the world doesn’t know how much he has changed.
They only see thisand nothing else.
Or: what starts out as one little scandal and tumbles into one after the other until he can’t take it anymore.

AUTHOR’S NOTE. this was written over the course of one year—admittedly, the longest i’ve ever spent on a one-shot, because this fic is very close to me. i really, really hope that you enjoy this because i put my whole soul into this. it’s my gift from myself to you all. a HUGE thank you to @phasmwrites & @meliorist-midoriya & @cellotonin for looking @ this for me :’)) i love you all so much <33
this was such a treat and honor to read over, and i adore how it all came to fruition.
the look into how harmful the herd mentality of cancel culture is and how much can be taken out of context to supplement it. the effects on others because of these scandals, the reader and bakugou’s healthy and supportive dynamic, and overall the beautiful flow and storytelling that obviously went into this piece.
