Okay, I know I just posted a status entry, but I mean it when I say I'm back. I'll probably post a few more as I continue writing this oneshot.
Now, the issue is that I've never written a historical fic before. Honest. Like, this isn't truly historical. It's in a fictional realm, set in a time where several different points in history are happening at once. So we got something as crazy as Changmin's father (the King) marrying off his sons (something that never really happened), sign language (though Yunho is mute, so it's kind of created for and mostly by him, so I guess it's okay???), the transition from Druidism to Christianity (I have no clue if Druidism even was the primary religion in the U.K. (the realm is in a fictional portion of the United Kingdom) before Christianity spread, but I guess I can say so for my fictional realm that's in a fan work???), assassins (I swear to god this is turning into gay Assassin's Creed against my will), homo-fucking-sexuality in the royalty (though that actually did happen a few times so… yeah), and like… other stuff.
And I suck at it. No joke. The pacing for this fic is out of fucking control. What's the climax of the story? Don't know? Neither do I! I think I can somehow tie it all up, but I seriously suck at this. I guess that's why it's an experiment. I hope you guys still like it a little bit, though. Those of you who read my HoMin, in any case. Yunho and his kingdom are pretty cool. They have wolves ad shit. They're also pretty… Spartan. That's the only way I can describe it.
Also there's a thing with the family crests. Like these animals are important. I wouldn't say spirit animals because that's offensive to Native American people, but like… patronuses. Anyway, 40,000 words. Shouldn't be more than 60,000, but if it is… Well, you'll know, because I'll post it.
