I wanna talk big about Garrot here for a second
Garrot Vlad Impurita was a character created by my fiance for a TTRPG campaign that I ran for my homebrew system (based on the series when it was wildly different)
Garrot was a vampire who partly believed that he wasn't a vampire

My inspiration lately has come from music, video games, and other works that I started but never really completed.
Also my fiancé inspired the character of Garrot, as he was a concept brought over from a TTRPG campaign I ran once upon a time

I swear half the time spicy romances are like:
"He walked in the room, and I was immediately ravenous with need and about to climax" like bro they can't be in the same room without busting a nut there and then

#QueerPrompts even though it is based on a modern day setting, my world, including place names, I completely made up. Honestly, it's stuck since the early conception of the original concept (a warrior academy).
But then I can play around with my own customs and traditions!

Some of the characters literally have superpowers. But aside from the obvious, they are also empowered by the friendships (and romances) they made along the way.

I always used writing as a big 'fuck you' to those that kept saying that writing was stupid.
And being able to get something down that I'm excited for really does empower me to continue!

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open 'just to do quick research'
![You’ve got super fans pausing and zooming in on individuals frames of your documentary. One allegedly shows one of the Duffers with a ChatGPT tab open on their computer. In your presence, what did they use ChatGPT for?
I mean, are we even sure they had ChatGPT open?
I’m personally not, but the internet seems sure.
Well, there’s a lot of chatter where [social media users] are like, “We don’t really know, but we’re assuming.” But to me it’s like, doesn’t everybody have it open, to just do quick research?
I do.
How can you possibly write a storyline with 19 characters and use ChatGPT, I don’t even understand.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7t2urmt3i33jl6tjgiolio6g/bafkreidw2tmcr2ayq74oqmjm5pn2tdox6hlxnpqevhuqqj6oa7nsslx3oi@jpeg)
