the gremlinHello! I'm GremlinSage (ty to Meph for the nickname). I also go by Grem, Gremmy, GremSage, or just Sage. I am active on both the forum itself and the chatroom. I have been writing for about 30 years in both forums, notebooks, and games (WoW/FFXIV). I'm a single parent and am always watching my nephew as well. Soon, I'll also be a student again!
Generally I mainly write MxM these days, but once in a while I'll open to play a female character. While my characters are always cisgendered, my partner and/or their characters genders/sexual identities don't matter.
I am big on Asian drama's and novels/manhuas. My favorite is absolutely MDZS which is why you'll always see my location in the Cloud Recesses. Aside from that, my music taste ranges depending on mood and which character is dominating my mind and I watch a lot of movies and sometimes binge watch TV shows.
You can search my post history for samples of my writing. There are plenty to look over!
- Open to short or long-term stories
- Para to Novella writer
- Always online and PMs are always open!
- I only write in third person - past tense
- No triggers.
- I work better on a whim but I can still plot OOC as well.
- I do not write fandoms
- I will not write furry

building worldsI love when both myself and my partner are actively taking a DM role back and forth. While I am god awful at plotting much OOC, I can absolutely do so on the go. I can't say where it'll go sometimes, but if I'm deep into it and the other is adding their own lore and reactions, it makes the world come alive.
On that note, I prefer controlling our own NPC's. It keeps the tone and personality of the character(s) consistent.
Posts need to move the plot forward, even if it's just a little. Surprise me with a twist, even if I'm the one running the plotline. Life is full of twists and turns, stories should be too.

preferencesI prefer partnering with members who have some time and post history under their belt. I'd like to see a track record of maintaining long-term stories. For this reason, I no longer will start stories with new members.
I don't mind doubling! I also love adding in all of the NPCs and lore to a world to make it come alive. However, I work 'on the fly'. I don't always know what my character's are going to say or do, let alone what is in their world. My characters are never OP, but they can range from shy and unsure to stubborn little shits. I love them.
I will not include cheating in a story. It isn't fun and adds absolutely nothing, nor do I believe in second chances in that matter.
When it comes to smut, I write submissive, bottom, or power bottom characters. Obviously this has nothing to do with their personality, this is just the preference when it comes to smut.
I do prefer erotica in my stories. Romance, however, is not required. Hard no's: scat, golden showers, vore, vomit, minors, sounding, age play.
I don't have any triggers! You can freely express what you're looking for or want to add into a story at any given time. Please also let me know what you won't write as well!

plot bunniesA Visit to the Surface The surface world is vast and to someone who only lives within the ocean, it holds so much more. A merman one evening happens upon a coastal village named Merrowdeep, crawling onto the empty shores and begins the painful process of shedding his tail, while a human comes across the scene.
The Rise and Fall of Gods One cultivator, known throughout the land as a prodigy, is nearing his peak to be considered an immortal. As he is about to ascend, an ancient cultivator who had long achieved immortality comes crashing down, destroying the ceremony and putting off the ascension.
Fallen Deities Two ancient rival deities are forced into a mortal form to stop their destructive war. Now they have to navigate life as mortal's, which include human emotions, including an inconvenient, growing affection for the other.
Breaking Bonds A warrior trained since childhood to exterminate magic users finds himself magically tethered to the last surviving warlock, and if one dies, the other does too. As they hunt for a way to break the bond, hatred turns into something much messier.
Godforged Weapons aren't made in this world, they're born. Living blades, whispering spears, armor that breathes. When a blacksmith discovers the lost art of creating new godforged weapons, every warlord, king, and immortal wants them on their side... or dead.
