"Average investigative journalist shot at 3 times per week" factoid actually just statistical error. Average investigative journalist shot at 0 times per week. Derek Hale, who's shot at over 10,000 times each day and wishes he lived in a cave, is an outlier and should not have been counted.

OR: That one where Deucalion is still a scary motherfucker, the Stilinskis retrieve antiquities, Derek is an investigative journalist, and they're all looking for a Mayan codex.

Title: Missed Deadlines

Stiles Stilinski never imagined he’d be 21 and have a three book deal with a decently respected science fiction publisher. He just had a knack for writing science fiction stories about aliens and the worlds they live in. So when he somehow finds himself with an agent and a book option, Stiles has to find a way to balance writing the last book in the series with finishing his junior year of college. He was doing pretty well, if he did say so himself.

Title: A Modern Manservant
Artist: mithborien
Writer: mamalaz

A modern magical comedy very loosely based on Ugly Betty. Publishing king Uther Pendragon has had enough of his playboy son seducing every female assistant he has ever had so he hires Merlin, a man he is sure Arthur will never sleep with. Merlin would be more insulted by this fact if he wasn’t so busy trying to juggle his duties, save Arthur's skin from ruthless fashionistas and keep his magic a secret at the same time. Expect appearances by oil-lathered knights, the occasional mad druid, a perverted Will and a mental caretaker who lives in the basement and keeps harping on about coins and destiny.

Title: Together like the Devil and Sin
Artist: mithborien
Writer: riyku



A few nights a week, Jared lights a candle in the window and opens the doors to his speakeasy, welcoming one and all, so long as they know the password and how to keep their mouths shut. When the liquor starts to dry up and the revenuers start closing in, Jared is forced to hang all of his fortunes on Jensen, a bootlegger who offers him a lot of pretty promises and an even prettier smile.

So I have started posting more on tumblr, a lot of graphics and picspams but instead of spamming you with them all on here I am going to do a monthly round up of everything I have done.

The "winning graphic" for the month with the most notes was this graphic of Sinqua Walls from Teen Wolf. It's currently sitting on about 740 notes and since I totally wasn't expecting any of my graphics to get notes in the hundreds, this is pretty cool.



I also posted two picspams for theaviary for the books Coraline and Good Omens. I posted two Merlin AUs: a Modern AU and a 1930s AU.

I posted a lot of picspams of the Teen Wolf cast including Keahu Kahuanui (who was a close runner up for the biggest number of notes, people really like him getting his geek on), Tyler Posey, Dylan O'Brien and two of Tyler Hoechlin. I also recced via picspam Cross my soul by ecarian, a Teen Wolf Derek/Stiles Dark Materials!AU.

And finally there was a picspam of Adrienne Palicki and the book covers from Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Legacy series.

I am Mithborien on Tumblr as well so come follow me if you want to be spammed with pretty pictures and GIFs that describe my social awkward soul. Tell me your own Tumblr username so I can follow you as well! I haven't exactly been diligent on keeping track of who of my friendslist is on Tumblr as well.

My entry for the Rainbow Icon Challenge @ theaviary. All icons are up for grabs.

Title: A prince from another world
Artist: mithborien
Writer: van_maniac



Merlin lives in current times and has always felt like he didn't quite belong, an outcast of sorts. One day, he finds out that the lake in the new park the city built is far from ordinary and holds a dangerous secret. Unable to stay away from the lake, Merlin finds himself in an unexplained situation and trying to make sense of it all.

One minute is enough.

Notes: So it's Big Bang time again and despite reading many hundreds and thousands of words of Big Bang fic I've managed to get my own art ready. But I find Big Bang to be an enormous amount of fun so thank you to the Mods for setting it up. It is a giant challenge you run but you always manage to pull it off so thanks again. And thank you to jacyevans for writing her story. If you haven't read it you should go do that first because my art probably gives stuff away. I wouldn't have been able to make the art I did if I wasn't first inspired by the story so congratulations jacyevans, it is a great story :)

You know, I should probably post this before the season premiere.

Title: New Year’s Day

Author: mithborien

Rating: PG-13

Word Count: 2967

Summary: It wasn’t running away.

Disclaimer: This story is based on characters, settings and situations created and owned by JK Rowling, various publishers including but not limited to Bloomsbury Books, Scholastic Books and Raincoast Books, and Warner Bros., Inc. No money is being made and no copyright or trademark infringement is intended.

Author's Notes: Let it be stated that I am not H/D shipper. I don’t know where the idea for this came from. In my mind, this was not meant to be seen as shippy but god knows it probably will be so let’s just say I hope you all enjoy it no matter which way you want to take it and write your own addendums in your minds.

Written for jamie2109 and nocturnali’s AWDT prompt of “I saw the way he/she looked at you” of which I promptly (pun maybe was intended) mangled to fit this story that had already been half written.

This fic also comes with a soundtrack because I pretty much listened to only these two songs while writing it.
New year’s day – U2
Fall to pieces – Velvet Revolver
And don't say a word about how those two songs are shippy either...

ETA: This fic now also comes with complimentary *cough* art by myself. Scroll to the end to see it.
