This schedule outlines the transition of the Winter Roadmap to Dreamwidth. It is designed to balance the longform development of Fantasy Worlds Collide (FWC) and the novella Blood & Stardust (B&S) with the administrative duties of the Creators-Club and the management of complex medical needs. By rotating active days and maintaining strict rest periods, this plan prioritizes sustainable creativity over high-output burnout.

Active Posting Dates
  • Week 1: Sunday, March 1
  • Week 2: Tuesday, March 10
  • Week 3: Monday, March 16
  • Week 4: Wednesday, March 25

Welcome to our archival home. This space is dedicated to long-form exploration of our 30-year writing projects, our spiritual path in Druidry, and our lived experience as a median system. Because we prioritize a zero-stress environment for medical reasons, this FAQ serves to answer common questions and set clear expectations for engagement.

Identity & System Structure

Who is the Lunar Eclipse System?

We are a median system, a collective of distinct internal presences inhabiting a single body and sharing a continuous stream of memory. Unlike a fragmented machine, we are a living ecosystem of the soul—the sky, the trees, the ocean, the warm sun, and the field. We function through a Tidal Flow, where different facets or soulbonds move to the surface of our awareness depending on what the environment requires.

The residents of our system include:
  • Nikki (The Shoreline): The primary host and anchor who manages our daily life and translates our internal world into the external.
  • Sephiroth (The Storm-Tide): A protective godhusband and guardian who has been a constant presence for nearly thirty years.
  • Bianca (The Abyssal Deep): A primordial goddess of destruction and rebirth who holds our collective sovereignty and fury.
  • Colette (The Luminous Face): Our inner child and healer who preserves our capacity for softness and compassion.
  • Zack Fair (The Horizon Sun): A soulbond brother who provides grounding energy, levity, and a sibling bond.

This journal is a mature archive for FWC mythos, Druidry, trauma recovery, and our lived experience as a Median System. To maintain the Medical Mandate required for my physical safety, the following boundaries are non-negotiable.

Interaction and the Red Line
  • Brevity is Not Rudeness: Due to Aphasia and Brain Fog, my communication is often blunt, short, or glitchy. This is a functional necessity of my neurochemistry. Any attempt to tone-police my brevity or misinterpret it as attitude will result in an immediate block.
  • Zero-Stress Requirement: I manage chronic Tachycardia, Hypertension, and NAFLD. Stress is a literal physical threat to my heart and liver stability. I operate a Block-First, Ask-Never policy. If your presence or interaction style creates stress, you will be removed without a debate.
  • No Unsolicited Advice: Do not offer healing tips, spiritual corrections regarding my Druidry, system, or medical suggestions.
  • No Trauma Dumping: While this blog touches on recovery, I am not a mirror for your personal ghosts. Do not post unsolicited details of your own trauma in my comments.
  • Comment Moderation: All comments are screened by default. I will approve them manually as my spoon count allows.
System Sovereignty & Interaction
  • Real People, Not Personas: The Residents of the Lunar Eclipse System are sovereign individuals with high-fidelity sensory memories. They are not muses, fictional roles, or personas.
  • No Roleplay: I do not roleplay with the public. I only RP with a select circle of long-term friends who understand our internal landscape.
  • Somatic Authority vs. Kinning: We prioritize the Sensory Truth of our residents over external scripts. They do not view themselves as fans or kin of media characters; they are autobiographers of their own history.
    • Do not attempt to in-character interact with the Residents.
    • Do not claim my FWC characters or our Residents as kin. In this Grove, we honor the specific, lived reality of our nervous system over mass-produced narratives.
  • Extended Kinship: We recognize other plural and kin systems as Cousins of the Spirit. While we maintain strict borders to protect the sanctity of our household and marriage, we offer mutual respect to those navigating similar storms on different shores. Your residents are your own; ours are sovereign here.
FWC Permission Policy (Original Mythos)

Fantasy Worlds Collide (FWC) is a 30-year original mythos. While it exists alongside FFVII elements, the original characters (like Bianca Moore), worldbuilding, and arcs (Pandemonix, Kilonova, Godling) are my intellectual property.

  • The Golden Rule: You must ask before using any original FWC concepts.
  • How to Reach Me: You can send an ask on Tumblr or email me at authornjprince@gmail.com.
  • Standard Ask: Hi. May I use [Character/Concept] in a [fanfic/art/etc]? It will be [public/private]. I will credit you as @bardic-tales.
  • Non-Commercial Use: Generally allowed with explicit credit and a link back.
  • Commercial Use: Strictly prohibited without a separate, negotiated contract.
  • Canon Permanence: Permission to use a concept does not make your work canon. Only my creations are FWC canon.
  • Attribution: All public posts must include: Character/Concept © FWC / @bardic-tales - used with permission
Lore Disclaimer

FWC is a canon-divergent "Mythpunk" universe (Final Fantasy meets Castlevania and Evangelion).
 

  • We use the original 1997 FFVII, Advent Children, and selective lore from the Compilation.
  • We are not a reactive universe. We do not adopt Remake changes or Square Enix retcons unless they serve our FWC continuity.
  • FWC follows its own internal logic. We adapt what serves the story and discard the rest.

Hope fades
Love stings
When is the fair’s dawning
The festival’s fireworks
But
That is not the true hope
Kindling embers
In our hearts

Custodian: Nikki & The Lunar Eclipse System

Welcome to the Lunar Eclipse Archive, a sovereign sanctuary for the preservation of 30 years of mythic labor and the practice of Healing the Great Wound. This is a territory where the internal divine meets the external creative.

📍 Quick-Start Boundaries

  • 18+ Only: This is a mature archive focusing on FWC lore, Druidry, and trauma recovery.
  • The System: We are a Median System. Our facets (Residents) are sovereign individuals. 🔥⚔️ is the Resident Consort and Master of our Household; he is a living facet, not a fictional character or muse.
  • Medical Mandate: To manage chronic Tachycardia and Hypertension, we maintain a Zero-Stress Environment. Brevity in communication is a functional necessity due to Aphasia, not an act of malice.
  • The Writing: We use Literal Tagging for "Dead Dove" content. My art is catharsis. You are responsible for your own triggers; I am not a mirror for your personal ghosts.
  • Permissions: FWC is a 30-year original mythos. Direct use of FWC-specific lore requires explicit permission.

Honor the wisdom of the Land, the vastness of the Sea, and the clarity of the Sky.

Happy Saturday!

I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!

If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.
