Wip Wednesday 🎄

I was tagged by the ever so lovely @daffi-990 @thewolvesof1998 @jamespearce9-1-1 @hippolotamus @exhuastedpigeon and @rainbow-nerdss mwuah 💛

Welp a little later than usual but here I am! And uh apparently I added another Christmas fic to the pile because why not lmao but it's just a real short one and I'm aiming for it to be posted this week. 🫡

He was just about to decide what kind of disgustingly greasy takeout food to order, when the door clicked open behind his back.

He turned to see— Eddie. Because of course it was Eddie.

“Hey,” he said gently, shutting the door behind himself and Buck knew it was a little irrational right now, but it still warmed his heart that Eddie came and went like this; that he knew no matter what, he was always welcome here.

“Hi.” Buck gave him a weak smile over the brim of his beer bottle, unsure of what to expect.

“I just wanted to see if you were okay.”

“Why, did uh did I not seem okay?” Buck scoffed, just falling short of casual.

Eddie averted his gaze almost guiltily before pinning Buck with a knowing look. “No.”

“Yeah, I guess that’s fair.” Buck took a long swig of his beer with a grimace.

“You know it doesn’t change anything, right?”

“Uh no, Eddie, I really don’t know that.” Buck drawled and put the bottle down on the counter top with a loud clink.

“Bu—”

“Eddie, you’re leaving the 118. That- that literally changes everything!” He spread his arms widely, as if he could indicate just how much of that everything covered.

What's the best comedy ever made and why is it Wooden Overcoats

#wooden overcoats #literally the people who created that show reached into my brain extracted the very essence of my sense of humour #and distilled it into a 4 season audio sitcom about undertakers #to this day it's the only podcast I've ever listened to in its entirety #(nothing personal I just find my attention wanders from podcasts a lot i lose the thread) #wooden overcoats though? have listened to it like 10 times in its entirety and am currently listening again #i should write more silly chapyard sometime #maybe even finish that spider au one of these days #mr. bees speaks #i tend to downplay how i sincerely think it's the Funniest Thing Ever Made when chatting to my brother #bc he was in an improv group with one of the producers/directors at uni and I think he would get legit weird and jealous about it sbshfhhdd

Shadow Puppets AU - Fairy Pie

There had been a few rough patches, but all in all this had been a fun night. More frun than Astrophel could remember having since Philip had been just a little boy.

"I hope we can do this again sometime..." he mumbled, taking his pies and leading Philip away. "They're... more wiggly than I was expecting!"

As tempting as it was to swipe both pies and swallow them down, Philip kept his self control and let Astrophel lead them away so they could eat in peace. The victory of overcoming his impulses was short-lived, as soon as they found a quiet place where he didn't have to pretend to be a mindless Abomination, Philip snatched one of the pies and examined it only for a moment before tossing the whole thing in his mouth.

The pie was something of a disappointment in the sense that the Fairies had been baked into the filling and their continued twitching was reflex only. No souls to consume. But otherwise it was full of incredible flavor that the Wendigo paused to savor for just a moment before the pie disappeared down his throat.

"Hmm, not wiggly enough." Philip complained, licking his lips, and finding himself disappointed once again to find he was still hungry. Did his emaciated form even have a stomach to process food, or what was the deal?

He yawned again and eyed Astrophel's pie longingly, but laid back and resisted the urge to ask if he could have it. Philip looked up at the sky, noting that it indeed seemed to be getting lighter. It was probably around 4:00 am, if Will hadn't already noticed they were gone and having an aneurysm over it, he was sure to by the time he came to wake the Emperor at 6:00.

"We should probably head back to the palace." He said after a moment, "There's one more thing I want to do with you before morning and we have to be there to do it." He said, starting to scrawl the glyph combo for teleportation into the ground.

Astrophel took his pie and climbed up onto Philip's back again, staring at it with distaste. He had honestly expected the fairy meat to be more ground up and unrecognizable. The fact that he could still see individual limbs twitching in the pie was a little bit of a turn off from eating it.

This is going to take some courage... he thought to himself. Astrophel opened and closed his mouth several times trying to convince himself to take a bite.

"Maybe if I just pick them off..."

So he did, barely paying much attention to what Philip was doing as he plucked out the most obvious arms and legs from the pie, feeling slightly better about eating it now that he could not see the fairy bits.

"What is it?" He asked, piling the limbs into one hand and reaching down from his perch to toss them into Philip's mouth, "Also open up, I don't want this part."

"A surprise. It's something I've wanted to do for a long time, though." Philip replied, and his eyes lit up as the fairy limbs were offered to him. He lapped them up gratefully, licking Astrophel's fingers while they were close and giving a delighted trill. "Hmmm, I think yours tastes better than mine did." He mumbled.

#shadow puppets au #philip wittebane #emperor belos #toh collector #RP scene #ugh I need a tag for this part of the timeline :p #for those that don't remember or weren't following; this is from a thread where Astrophel is free for the night #but the trade off is Belos is stuck in his Wendigo form and neither of them can use magic outside of being able to use glyphs #Belos has only been Emperor for about Twenty Years #Will is the name of the current Golden Guard #I really like the colors on this one

Ok I swear I'm gonna shut up and go to be bed and attempt to be even a little normal about this, but fuckin...special bonus episode adapting one of the most popular issues in the series and one of the most important, that drops out of nowhere, with uneven story lengths reflecting the needs of the stories, and with one of the two stories animated so as to do it justice properly, like. I could literally fucking cry, it's so exactly the avant-garde broken formalism I so desperately hoped for out of this show, so much willingness to take risks for the sake of the story they’re telling. I'm so happy. They did both 'Dream of a Thousand Cats' and 'Calliope' such great justice.

#the sandman #netflix sandman #sandman netflix #neil gaiman #dream of a thousand cats #not to mention the fucking complexity and nuance and humanity and monstrosity of 'Calliope' #like jesus christ the needle to thread there #the way it only gains more significance in the current day #the weight of the dark mirror held up to real life and I would imagine some deep ambivalence on Gneil's part #Calliope's rage and fear and outrage #the two women who briefly try to intervene and help madoc despite the horror he’s spewing #like damn the actor who played the woman who went to madoc's house was barely in it but just fucking phenomenal at that subtle dread #ye gods I think this is my favorite episode so far #megan whines into the empty abyss of cyberspace

You ever learn something new about one of your hyperfixations and your brain just explodes with disconnected threads of creative energy?

@jonquilclegane, you have blessed me with that this weekend!

#i know ive been thanking you on the thread to the point that it might be getting weird but like #i’m suddenly obsessed with thinking about how to integrate Sigyn into the modern comics or the mcu #in a MUCH BETTER way #whereas before i realized she existed as anything more than a cameo in one of the Pride comics #i was indifferent to her showing up in the comics at this point #and even somewhat against it in the mcu with all the other potential love interests running around #but now not only have you changed my mind #(and given me more reasons to be pissed with vintage (and current) marvel) #i have IDEAS #loki #sigyn #loki’s love interests #seriously if you have not seen their additions to the love interests post please go read it

[pastafossa]

Pasta I’m just wondering if you have downloaded Red Thread? I was in the middle of a reread since it’s been a while since I checked up on the story when Ao3 went down and I am DESPERATE. Love your writing and story 🩷🩷

Sincerely a Matt Murdock whore

THANK YOU SO MUCH ANON, AND FELLOW MATT MURDOCK WHORE. You have my solidarity. 😎

I do in fact have them all in my google docs BUT ironically I've made so many little editing changes in the chapters themselves (my editing round 3 of chapters is actually the preview format on AO3 because it looks different enough to my brain that I catch more errors) that the google docs chapters are at least one editing round out of date. And after AO3 went down, I've realized that, oh, hey, I probably should A. update them and B. back them up in a third place. Like sure, I have google docs and AO3 buuuuuut I'm no longer feeling as confident as I was that it'll be enough should something go wrong.

I'm currently looking at other places I can set up all the chapters (I'm not sure if tumblr is really meant for fics that length) but until then I'm absolutely fine with any readers using the download option on AO3 now that the site's back up!

#the red thread #i *do* have the fic downloaded but i definitely need to update all the chapters to their current form since they're all out of date #unfortunately they are only currently available to readers on ao3 #i'm looking at other places i might put them #whether that's an actual blog or something idk but i'm definitely looking! #like i said i'm fine if you use the download function on ao3 though! #i consider it a little like people who want to bookbind #as long as it's just for you to read personally then i'm cool with it <3

Imagine if you can see strings in memory scroll people. Imagine wukong and later macaque seeing how beautiful their string used to be in past shadowpeach

oooooooooooh i like your brain, anon 👀 such a fun little detail to add to the au’s world ✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️ thanks :)

#yeah bc both were never aware of the red strings until after everything #even with SWK’s golden eyes of truth the monkey would only be able to see a person’s true form #(so like a demon pretending to be a human or celestial as a human and all that jazz. idk if the golden eyes are said to see more) #but then you have swk in the scroll and he can see it all. he watched old memories replay and the threads are so blinding and bright #he even watched as the thread gradually dims in color as the years close in to swk & Macky’s eventual confrontation #and when Macky joins MK the threads are everywhere and MK is asking questions and Mac doesn’t even know how to feel bc #he watches a younger version of himself be tied with swk and then sees the unkept d version held between the current swk and himself #yes this is good #this is very good #lmk #shadowpeach #red string au #asks

i think a lot about how calm ren seems on the surface and not only how quickly, but how DRAMATICALLY that can change in an instant.

the meeting point is rather exposed despite the tall buildings narrowing in on them ─ not ideal for a rendezvous with someone they hardly know. so mi leans closer into v's vicinity, tilting her head towards the sky, illuminated by long strands of advertisement. what if they have walked right into a trap? a muffled metallic click erupts from the familiar sounds of night city's barking streets and in a sudden wave of all-consuming anxiety, so mi grabs v's arm and pulls him into the darkness of a small alley. however, before he can react, she extinguishes any grunts of wonder and surprise as she clasps her hand over v's mouth.

her eyes are locked on the spot where they have stood merely a minute ago. there are no signs of odd movement, yet she decides it is better when they remain tucked away between the concrete for at least a while. the mission failing is a small price to pay to ensure that v is unharmed. if anything were to happen to him...

hitches of damp heat pulse against her palm, right, her hand was still shutting v's lips. she cannot remember the last time life was slipping past her fingers in a tender caress as an excited tingle poured through her skin and body. v used to feel cold and hard beneath her touch but with the new layer of skin stretching over so mi's limbs, she could even feel the crisp prickle of v's beard. her hand slips to his shoulder, curious about what other areas can make her heart swell.
