NullNoMoreXenotober 2025, 31 stories in 31 days, all set on the planet Mira in Xenoblade X. Wish me luck. #Xenotober
Day 1: two soldiers versus an overpowered bird.

I'm using #Cringetober prompts.
Day 2: weird colors. Two soldiers (Irina and Gwin), facing a temporary injury, find a novel solution. (Yes, the left skell is in prairie green.)

Day 3, Chibi: Irina phones a friend to get help fixing her mech.

Day 4: fursona. Plenty of fuzzy aliens on the planet to choose from.

Day 5: favorite trope. Mia wishes she could have amnesia. Joking. Mostly.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/187346326
Day 6: musical/monster. Lucky the OC hits a sour note while making coffee (an attempt at horror). (No, really.)

Xenotober day 7: anime. I know very little about anime but my Xenoblade XDE avatar knows even less.

Xenotober day 8: The Cringetober prompt was "-core aestheic." Let the giant robot fangirl decorate her room up nice.

Xenotober day 9: indie game. Two guys fight giant crabs and discuss story versus gameplay.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/188014841
Cringetober day 10: Unnecessarily complex. How to move a dinosaur. Milesaur. Really big alien creature.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/188130156
Day 11 of Cringetober prompt was crossover. I looked at all of the Xeno franchises, where characters bounce around like bouncy things, and did not bite. Instead, I started to mutter "heels, nails, BLADE, mascara..."

#Cringetober #XenobladeX #kpdh you deserve better but here we are
Xenotober/Cringetober day 12: Vocaloid. A continuation from day 6. Lucky the OC needs to sing with his band.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/188464966
Cringetober day 13: animal traits.
I'm exhausted so I slapped a tail on a mech and called it good.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/188673611
Cringetober day 16: First OC. Doesn't everyone have a gas station as an OC?

Cringetober/Xenotober day 15: First attempt. The prompt encourages us to try a new kind of art. I wrote a Y/N story and used a wet paintbrush on my ink doodle. I'm rather pleased with both.
Showing off my favorite ink: Pilot Shin-kai. So lovely, so calm, zero water resistance.

Cringetober day 16: reclaimed insecurity. We all know Alexa can yap about mechs. What if that's one of her super powers?
She really does deserve a cape.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/189138056
Cringetober/Xenotober day 17. OC x Canon Character. H.B. is the most exacting man on the planet. Veena the OC continues to surprise him, even when he's paying attention. Especially when he's paying attention. Lower your expectations.

I did Cringetober but didn't have the oomph to draw a picture. Tomorrow, I promise.
Day 18 & 19: the mech refueling station team in an alternate universe, and a meme redraw. I survived day 19, but not without damage.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/189599756
Cringetober days 20 and 21. Picrew and animatic. Visual based prompts aren't a breeze for fanfic but I used my secret weapon: writing from a bratty 13-year-old's perspective. Been there, watched it from the outside, have it on tap. Lin and Alexa and skells, Lin and Tatsu and (surprise) more skells.

Cringetober: Art style experiment and [unhinged screeching] soulmates [screeching intensifies].
I wrote in-game dialogue for my Cross, and then [unhinged screeching crescendo] my original couple gets soulmate treatment [absolute yodeling] ... and they don't notice [screaming so much screaming]. I had fun.

Xenotober 26: not from a prompt list today. In honor of Pelikan Hub fountain pen events, let us consider journaling in New Los Angeles, hosted by Hope Alanzi.
The character, not my TWSBI 580. Same name though.

Xenotober 2025: still ignoring prompts, using the 5 times +1 format. Five times Wolf and Duna Valdileo went out to dinner, and one time they did not.
They may not meet in game but they are my OTP.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/190543971
Xenotober 26 and 27: Still ignoring the prompts. Good experiences with skells, bad experiences (cw injury, Irina will be fine).
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/190884281
Xenotober day 28 and 29. A young man longing for more responsibility, and a team versus a millesaur (again).
No drawings, enjoy emoji. 🦀 🙀 🦕 ❄

Day 30 for Xenotober. Kamehameha. It was supposed to be about silly weaponry in X, but a tinge of sorrow slipped in.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/71678411/chapters/191357781
Happy Halloween!!! And happy Xenotober and Cringetober!! Littlepon are in jeopardy but Elma is on the case!!
