construction workers were a superstitious organization who thought orange objects could ward off vehicles, or even control people.

#yea it’s to ward off the tarmac demons

“You never see unicorns anymore,” Crawly grumbles, watching another collection of dusty donkeys trudge into town.

“Well, obviously not,” Aziraphale replies, rolling his eyes.

Crawly directs a frown at him.

“Obviously?” he repeats, eyebrows raised in a question.

“You were there, Crawly, you know perfectly well why not.”

Crawly blinks, which doesn’t happen very often.

“You’ve lost me.”

“The Ark?” Aziraphale tries, hoping to jog Crawly’s memory. “You remember, one of Noah’s ran off, they didn’t have time to find another before the rain started…”

Crawly frowns.

“What does that have to do with anything?”

Aziraphale peers at his face, looking for the trick, the joke, the setup. All he sees is honest confusion. It’s his turn to blink.

“Crawly,” he says, somewhere between disbelief and a rather unangelic delight, “you do know why he had two of everything, don’t you?”

Crawly shifts defensively in his seat.

“Assumed it was one of those daft instructions sent down from on high, you know, one Ark, two of each animal, three of each kind of fruit, whatever—”

Aziraphale starts to laugh. He can’t help himself. Crawly scowls at him and hunches his shoulders.

“What? What’s so funny, angel?”

Angel. Crawly called him that in Eden, before Aziraphale thought to give him his name. He doesn’t know why he’s doing it now. Perhaps it’s supposed to be an insult. It doesn’t really have a lot of bite to it, if so.

“You’ve really never— all right, all right, don’t look so cross, I’ll tell you, I’m just— surprised, that’s all.” Aziraphale takes a sip of the fermented beverage the humans in this village have invented. It’s got potential, he thinks. “It takes two of them to breed, Crawly. Male and female.”

Crawly stares at him so blankly that Aziraphale has to bite his lip against more laughter.

“Please tell me you’ve at least noticed the physiological differences between the sexes—”

“Yes, yes, I know about that,” Crawly interrupts. “And what they get up to with those bits. You mean they’re not just for leisure activities?”

“No, they’re rather fundamental to the whole reproduction thing, in fact. The, ah, recreational applications are just a side-effect.”

“What, really?”

“Mm-hmm.”

“But humans are always—”

“Well, that’s why there’s so many of them these days.”

Crawly looks absolutely dumbfounded by this revelation, and more than a little outraged.

“What about birds?” he demands. “They just lay eggs whenever they want to, don’t they?”

“I believe mating is still required beforehand.”

“What about fish?”

“I’m fairly certain that the same rule applies.”

Crawly stares into his clay cup, lips moving slightly as he tries to come to terms with this whole concept. His expression tilts suddenly into something that unexpectedly yanks on Aziraphale’s heartstrings.

“Oh,” he says quietly. “So no more unicorns, then.”

“No,” Aziraphale replies, no longer laughing.

“I’d have got it back for them, if I’d known,” Crawly mumbles.

Yes, Aziraphale thinks, surprised by his own certainty, you would have, wouldn’t you?

life advice: if ur cishet male friends dont let u call them babygirl theyre not worth it. but also this is dangerous bc then u’ll buy them a coffee at starbucks and they’ll say thank u daddy and u will automatically respond ur welcome babygirl and then the entire starbucks will be staring at u bc it is 2:45pm on a wednesday. this may happen multiple times. do with this what u will

I'm probably gonna get yelled at for saying this but sometimes something isn't a real problem in fandom, you just learned a Japanese word describing a general fandom practice and got scared and decided it meant "The Bad Ones" of that practice

Truly love the number of people I've met that have been like "Well I went to a Catholic school as a kid, which is to say I'm not Catholic" like damn Catholic schools really out here doing the exact opposite of missionary work.

#FR #always say that from our school you either turned out hyper religious or atheist or queer or a combination of the above

20 Questions for Writers

1. How many works do you have on AO3? I have two accounts, which combined would make 195 works total. For this game I'll stick to my wickersnap account to make it easier for me to answer - 66.

2. What's your total AO3 word count? Again in combination that's 917,549 words. wickersnap makes up 620,800 of those exactly.

3. What fandoms do you write for? Primarily Star Wars. I've also written >1 work for the wizard school fandom, x-men, detroit: become human. I plan to write more Star Trek in future

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos? fizzing sours Pastel Drawstrings Relinquish We Were Younger in Our Daydreams Twin Blasters

5. Do you respond to comments? Yes! Even if they've been sitting there forever, I believe it's polite to. However if you're rude or just asking for more I am not above ignoring you.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? Aureate, maybe. I don't remember most of what I've posted man it's too much, and I don't do a lot of angsty endings.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? I think I'd suggest Counting on your Fingers because of the build up to get to that point, but then again it's been a while since I looked at that fic.

8. Do you get hate on fics? I've had some interesting comments before lol yeah

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Yes, anything I feel like. I can't speak for realism but I've covered an array of kinks for better or worse

10. Do you write crossovers? No

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Don't think so

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? No

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? Not quite

14. What’s your all time favorite ship? This is a trap

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I don't want to say any of them because it's sad and makes me feel guilty

16. What are your writing strengths? I've been told I'm very good at creating atmosphere, specifically something comforting or nostalgic. Ah also that I was skilled in juggling the large cast of fizzing sours while keeping it coherent and cohesive and giving most everyone time to develop and be relevant.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Takes me fucking forever and I refuse to draft. If the drive isn't there I will not write.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? If the perspective character is meant to know what it means please translate it. I also don't like when it's in italics, it's still dialogue.

19. First fandom you wrote for? Voltron Legendary Defender. The first fic I ever wrote though was for a niche oneshot manga I don't remember the name of and on a slip of paper I kept in the breast pocket of my school blazer.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written? This also feels like a trap. Effloresence, because AOS Spock was really really fun to write
