Description:

cockatrice = a mythological creature hatched from an egg laid by a rooster and incubated by a snake
Each story is different in tone... pretty much different genres
"Negotiation" is a farce (although it does address some serious topics)
"First Kiss" is pretty much straight-up feels
"Filling in Some Blanks" edges into hurt/comfort territory
"Adult Business" is smut, with a chaser of family feels
"Glory Box" is dystopian / angst

Notes:

Announcement in light of "Big Reveal" (OK KO episode aired July 26)...

I will continue to write this fic series as I envisioned it before.

I gave it some thought, and there is just no way that I can accommodate *that* twist into the plot and characterizations that I have been writing and that I planned for the series.

But I still have a story to tell... thanks to the compelling characters and themes that Ian JQ and and the crew built in the first two seasons. (I mean no disrespect to the new plot! It's just not what I envisioned.) And so, moving forward, this fic is AU.
(Well... even more AU than it already was. I also just learned that, while a major plot point in "Glory Box" is Boxman being left-handed, the show actually depicts him as ambidextrous... oops.)

So, moving forward with the "Cockatrice" series, expect... More Voxman! More Boxman-centered stories! More Venomous being a good dad to Fink!
And while I may not have foreseen the relationship and lineage twists and drama that Ian JQ & co. intended... I've got a couple of gut-punch twists of my own in store. :)

I ask your patience. Between a full-time job and a side job (both involving editing)... plus just being a very distractable multi-fandom fan... I'm slow at getting chapters out. But this show really touched me and grabbed my imagination, and I want to build on that feeling.

If you are reading -- thank you! I absolutely treasure every story hit, kudos or comment. And remember, you can always reach me through Tumblr or Discord.
