A huge thanks to everyone who participated in the Library Holiday Party and the Hangover Brunch! I hope you had as much fun as I did, and hope you enjoy your gifts! Here’s the final nice and naughty lists!
Naughty
Mistletoe: Christmas Is For Sex (and Love) So Give It To Me by @goldentruth813 (53,218 words, rated E)
Draco buys Harry an Advent House, intent on helping Harry create all new holiday memories, and have a lot of great sex in the process.
Bonus Mistletoe: Christmas Eve and the Kisses Four by @violetclarity (5,366 words, rated E)
Draco was determined to ignore Harry and have a good time at this Christmas Eve party, but with enchanted mistletoe in the mix, that was easier said than done.
Tree: Business As Usual by @thegertie (17,623 words, rated M)
Harry's Christmas isn't shaping up the way he'd imagined it would.
Sweets: My True Love Gave to Me (Six Jars of Chutney) by @goldentruth813 (12,311 words, rated M)
On his first post-divorce Christmas Eve without his children, Harry goes to Marks & Spencer hoping to find a bit of his past; what he finds instead is a future.
Party: This Time Next Year by @janieohio (5,310 words, rated E)
Their kids are friends, their friends are friends, and though Harry and Draco have floated through each other’s lives for decades, it’s never been like this. Tonight, at Neville and Pansy’s Christmas party, something clicks, and things will never be the same.
Nice
Mistletoe: Muggles, Mischief, Music and Mayhem by sesheta_66 (5,236 words, rated T)
Harry hadn't expected Malfoy to be working on Christmas Eve with him. What happened over the course of the evening was even less expected.
Present: Of Christmas Shopping and Surprising Gifts by @eva-eleanore (6,030 words, rated T)
Of course, Draco can help Harry with his Christmas shopping, no problem at all. He might be in love with the git, but feelings can be ignored. Or not?
Music: Stopping by the Messiah on a Snowy Evening by burglebezzlement (4,480 words, rated T)
When Harry Potter agreed to join Hermione’s Muggle-Wizarding Choir, he wasn’t expecting to be singing next to Draco Malfoy. Christmas, choir music, and the gaps in a Wizarding education.
Sweets: Kissing Santa Claus by @erebeus-roxy (1,532 words, rated G)
Scorpius sees Papa kissing Santa Claus. He’s not pleased.
Party: (Christmas)Time to Make a Move by ieroo (4,032 words, rated T)
For Harry Potter, the only bright part of the DMLE Christmas party is Draco Malfoy. When their evening moves onto Blaise's mansion Harry decides it is time to make his move, especially when he watches Draco and Pansy dancing to Muggle Christmas songs.
As always, if you find a fic you enjoy, please remember to leave the author a kudos or a comment!
💚❤️ Lots of Love and Happy Holidays! ❤️💚

Supernatural Fanfic Recommendations
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pancho, on a Tuesday by a_good_soldier
Words: 1.8k
Description: An angsty one-shot depicting one of the times Dean dies during 3x11 "Mystery Spot". Good hurt/comfort feels.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Above My Crumpled Life by IAmSorry_sendmeaprompt
Words: 1k
Description: A super angsty one-shot set in season 2. Dean realizes he's afraid to die.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Blood Brothers by expectingtofly
Words: 29.7k (in progress)
Description: An angsty Destiel Purgatory fic told in Castiel's POV. And when I say angsty I mean angsty. I am such a sucker for angst and pining, and expectingtofly doesn't stop giving it.
After Dean and Benny find Castiel, they begin their search for the portal out of Purgatory. However, Castiel isn't even sure he can make it out since he's an angel, not a human. On top of it all, his grace is becoming more and more unpredictable the longer he's in Purgatory. It also doesn't help that he's starting to suspect there is something going on between Dean and Benny.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
every lever you've pulled by wherechester
Words: 844
Description: A short, sweet one-shot in Dean's POV about how beautiful Castiel is.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stamp Me with Your Signature by MajorEnglishEsquire
Words: 47k
Description: Okay, hear me out. This is the fic for that one rare-pair you accidentally stumble upon and never imagine yourself shipping, but because of that fic, you're now unironically obsessed with that ship. So, I hope that helps explain the rest of this post.
Set in season 10, Sam accidentally runs into Chuck at a diner being attacked by demons. Sam soon realizes Chuck isn't a prophet anymore (the author came up with a great reason why), and they catch up a little. They maintain their friendship as Sam continues to Hunt and search for a cure for the Mark of Cain. Sam and Chuck fall for each other, but not without a lot of pining, angst, and whump along the way. MajorEnglishEsquire is an amazing writer, and I read this entire fic in one sitting. I highly recommend reading this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Elements of Style by MajorEnglishEsquire
Words: 11k
Description: If you don't want to read MajorEnglishEsquire's 47k word fic about Sam/Chuck, I recommend reading this one instead. While struggling to find a job, Chuck is dog-sitting for Sam--a man he's never met and only knows through his dogs and the books he has in his house. As Chuck reads through Sam's books and lives in his house, he begins to fall for Sam, despite reminding himself that he's never actually met him. This is another great story by MajorEnglishEsquire and is full of pining.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vorticity by burglebezzlement
Words: 14k
Description: Another fic about the Sam/Chuck rare-pair (I know, but I'm totally obsessed now). This storm-chaster AU centers around seasoned storm-chaser Sam and meterology professor Chuck. Chuck has never actually been on a real storm chase before and is terrified, but he needs someone to help him do it, so he asks Sam for help. The two chase tornadoes across the country and eventually catch feelings for each other. It's a nice, sweet fic full of pining and sharing the same bed.

Eleanor x Tahani fic rec - Third Edition
Here, have your needed Eleanor x Tahani during winter hiatus
My top picks
Imagine Us in Heaven by @lenathecoffeewriter – So, this fic healed my soul. If you’ve been wishing Tahani come to the realization that she’s a lesbian, this is the fic you’ve been waiting for. It has 10 chapters, each chapter is short and a light, lovely reading. It has lovely moments with Eleanor set in S4, in a totally plausible way (well, in a totally plausible reality where the show is not deadset in having Eleanor and Chidi being endgame, but you get what I mean). I’m always skeptical with fics where Eleanor and Tahani have feelings for each other rather than attraction, but ugh this is everything I’ve been wishing for. It’s honestly so good, so well written, loved how the author gave Tahani her personal journey to coming out, and loved the author’s scenarios for Eleanor and Tahani’s relationship to flourish.
Temptations of Infuriation by ao3 author bYeFeliciaah – this is the enemies-to-friends-to-lovers fic you want. It has 3 chapters, it’s so lovely, it’s set in S3 while on Earth, it’s the fic I wish I had written. Author says this fic was inspired by the scene in The Office where Pam has her art show and only Michael shows up, that’s the plot. Other than that, as I previously stated, it is the fic I wish I’d written. It’s so good.
Champagne Bonuses by ao3 author darlingargents – One chapter only, it’s an au/canon divergence where Eleanor is Tahani’s assistant, both alive on Earth. It has the right amount of hurt-comfort, flirting and cute moments. I go back to it often when I’m in the mood for something nice and light.
A couple of M/E rated ones which are nice
That Damn Blue Dress by ao3 author thesilvergoddex – What I love about this fic is that is has sexy scenes not written too explicitly, just smooth enough. Summary goes: “Eleanor spills some stuff on Tahani's least favorite dress, and they have a dressup party. And an undressing party.”
The Pleasure Principle by @iasmelaion – It has one chapter that feels like a few chapters put together in one long chapter. Friends to lovers set in S3 while the Soul Squad were in Australia (meaning there are sexy moments as well as plot). Summary goes: "When Eleanor makes the offer, she doesn’t expect Tahani to actually take her up on it. A woman like Tahani Al-Jamil is not going to stay at a tourist trap motel with Eleanor Shellstrop, Arizona trashbag. What happens when Tahani does, in fact, take Eleanor up on her offer to stay with her in her Sydney motel room.”  It’s what every Eleanor x Tahani shipper wanted S3 to make happen for us.
I’m a slut for fluff and you know it, so here are my picks
Going My Way by @thehummingbirdsound – We are left shivering with … anticipation, but it’s a lovely set up of a before-the-romance scenario. They’re both on Earth, Tahani’s flight is cancelled, she and Eleanor go to a bar and bond. It’s cute, I promise.
Trash Bag Heart by ao3 author burglebezzlement – Oof, this author is a constant in these ficrecs for a reason. This is a cute one chapter fic set in the beginning of S4, kind of what they don’t show you on screen type of Eleanor x Tahani content. I love this author’s writing, it’s always flawless, and perfectly balanced between flirty and romantic.
Recovery by ao3 author Merixcil – This is ficlet from a prompt, and it’s part of a big compilatory fic of multifandom ficlets. The fic explores what I gather is the author’s personal take of what should be the solution to the problem The Good Place presents, and Eleanor and Tahani are together in it. It’s really nice, I myself found it an interesting take of what should happen to the souls in their afterlife.
Soulmates by @ticklishraspberries – this is not a recent fic, it’s actually set in the very S2, it’s short and sweet, all audiences, and explores the first instants of Attempt 218.

Tumblr media
@momentofmemory tagged one of my fics in this (which made my day) and I looove reccing fics, so I figured I’d try to fill this whole card. Also, if you know any of these authors on tumblr, feel free to tag them so they know! 
A fic you love without knowing the source material
Some Are Silver by roque_classique 
Supernatural | PG | Sam Winchester & Dean Winchester 
Summary: Sam & Dean’s injuries have caught up to them, and it’s Christmas. Far more hopeful than you expect. 
Look, the potential for angst and h/c in spn fic has captured me even if I’ve only watched one season of the show. 
A fic with a premise that shouldn’t work but does 
Kittenface by cmere 
Arrested Development | T | Gob Bluth/Tony Wonder
Summary: In which Tony helps Gob adopt a kitten, and you wonder how on earth this kind of fluff can be so gloriously in character. 
I’ve recently fallen down an AD fanfiction hole. Why do I always want to take ridiculous characters seriously? Who knows?  
A fic you’ve reread several times 
Potential by psilent (heretherebefic)
Veronica Mars | Not Rated | Veronica Mars & Eli “Weevil” Navarro
Summary: Veronica and Weevil find themselves reminiscing on the anniversary of Lilly’s death and it’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a fic. 
If by several times you mean 25+ times. I still can’t believe this fic blessed me with bi Veronica and Weevil AND spot-on dialogue and characterization. 
A fic you still remember many years later 
Therapy Can Be Very Helpful by BlueSkye12
Sherlock | T | John Watson |
Summary: John Watson goes to therapy. 
I still think about this fic, even though I haven’t read Sherlock fic for like 5 years. 
A comfort fic 
The Spirit of Christmas by fiona d
Veronica Mars | K+ | Veronica Mars + ensemble
Summary: The ghosts of Christmas visit Veronica. 
Still the best “A Christmas Carol” trope I’ve read.
A cathartic fic 
Bid Farewell by @ladyroxie
Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries | T | Phryne Fisher/Jack Robinson
Summary: “Jack gets some bad news, and Phryne doesn't stay away.”) 
This fic is the definition of catharsis in my opinion. 
A fic you’d print and put on your bookshelf 
We are Nowhere, And It’s Now series by @petpluto 
Veronica Mars | M | Veronica Mars, Logan Echolls, Lilly Kane, Eli “Weevil” Navarro
Summary: Veronica is haunted by ghosts. 
A fic you associate with a song
all of @vernonfielding​ ‘s b99 season 7 countdown project, but I’ll give special mention to: 
She said that she wanted cuban babies by Estelle (Fielding) 
Brooklyn Nine Nine | G | Jake Peralta/Amy Santiago
Summary: “Jake comes to some conclusions after the bomb scare. Takes place during Casecation.”
This fic, and my conversations with fielding afterwards, helped me see casecation & Jake’s reaction in a whole new light. Plus I love The Lonely Island’s Bash Brothers album more than is necessary, so all the titles using lyrics from that album makes me so happy. 
A fic that inspires you
Advantage by @lodessa
Veronica Mars | T | Veronica Mars/Eli “Weevil” Navarro
Summary: “Weevil helps Veronica out with a case.”
Everything about lodessa’s characterization of Veronica and Weevil inspires me, but more so I’m inspired by her willingness to engage in the comments of her fics. It really encouraged me to be talkative in my own comment sections, which has been super fun and definitely helped me make new fandom friends. 
A fic that brought you aboard a new ship 
London Calling by Shadowcast 
Buffy the Vampire Slayer | M | Spike/Xander
Summary: “ After Buffy receives a mysterious telephone call from Spike, she sends Xander to London to find out what's going on.”
I still can’t believe that I seriously ship Spike and Xander because of this fic. I always liked them as a crackship, but this fic really sold me on them in a more serious manner. 
A fic you wish could be a movie 
Sacrificial Mages by burglebezzlement
Carry On Series | T | Simon Snow/Baz Pitch 
Summary: A mystery & a romance. Post Carry-On. 
A fic that led you to making friends with the author 
languages, mac & cheese, and love by @exploding-snapple
Brooklyn Nine Nine | G | Jake Peralta/Amy Santiago
Summary: Jake notices something about Amy and the Spanish language. 
I’m pretty sure this fic is the reason exploding-snapple & I started following each other on tumblr, and now I get her to beta-read my fic! And it’s such a good fic. 
Free Space 
End of Part One by GoldStarGrl
Arrested Development | T | Gob Bluth & Michael Bluth 
Summary: “Post-series, the Bluth Boys are having a tough time.”
Why do I have so many feelings about these truly ridiculous characters? 
A fic you’ve gushed about IRL
Lydia Chalmers’ Thesis on William the Bloody by Barb Cummings (Rahirah), Ceallaigh, cindergal, Dori, dutchbuffy, Klytaimnestra, matcha taf (macha), mintwitch, shipperx, Sylviavolk2000
Buffy the Vampire Slayer | T | Spike 
Summary: What it says on the tin. Watcher Lydia Chalmers’ thesis on William the Bloody aka Spike. 
People! Actually! Wrote! A whole! Thesis! 40k words. This is glorious and so so funny. The footnotes and citations kill me every time. 
A fic you associate with a place
the most important meal of the day by disastersauras
Brooklyn Nine Nine | T | Jake Peralta
Summary: “Jake + 10 breakfasts.”
The author says that they’ve never been to New York, but they could’ve fooled me with this wonderful sense of place. 
A fic that made you gasp out loud 
Entrenched by Scratch_Pad 
Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries | G | Jack Robinson
Summary: “Jack and the War, an exploration.”
The Beethoven scene broke me. I love this fic more than I can express. 
A fic you found at the right time 
Sick Leave by @winnietherpooh
Brooklyn Nine Nine | Not Rated | Jake Peralta/Amy Santiago
Summary: Jake & Amy take a vacation, post-prison. 
Harry Potter is to Jake’s process of healing as Brooklyn Nine Nine is to mine. And this fic captures it perfectly.
A fic that you would read fic of
This Colder Air by annakovsky & kyra
The Office | T | Ensemble
Summary: “This is the best apocalypse Mose has ever had.” Apocalypse AU, naturally. 
This fic is also up there on my list of very favourites. I frequently think about it and the world that the authors created. 
A fic that made you laugh
oh my love, it was a funny little thing by philthestone
Brooklyn Nine Nine | G | Jake Peralta/Amy Santiago
Summary: Jake & Amy are called in for a parent’s meeting, but it’s not for the reason anyone may think. 
This fic still makes me laugh every time I reread. 
A fic with a line (or two) that you’ve memorised by heart
Worthy by bigsciencybrain
Veronica Mars | T | Eli “Weevil” Navarro & Felix Toombs
Summary: “It’s Felix who gets Eli home.” 
One of my favourite fics ever, it’s so angsty yet Felix-the-maybe-ghost somehow never fails to make me laugh, too. I have that opening line memorized.
A fic that gave you butterflies
you made it through, you finally moved - that's good for you by swimthewholeriogrande
Brooklyn Nine Nine | Not Rated | Jake Peralta
Summary: Post-prison, something goes awry for Jake during a routine day on the job. (hurt!Jake). 
Look I’m sure they meant romantic butterflies, but I’m taking this to mean whumpy, h/c butterflies because that’s the kind of girl I am. 
A fic that embodies something you value in life
Broken Prayers and Empty Hallways by @shealynn88​
Veronica Mars | T | Veronica Mars/Eli “Weevil” Navarro
Summary: “Eli had always tried to save her from his problems. Even though she'd never asked to be saved.”
Learning to be vulnerable and supporting and caring for each other? That’s definitely something I value. Plus I just adore this fic. 
A favourite AU
The Long and Winding Road by MediumSizedEvil
Brooklyn Nine Nine | M | Jake Peralta/Amy Santiago
Summary: “After completing his military service in the IDF Jake goes on a backpacking trip to South America, where he meets an Art History student from New York.”
A fic you stayed up too late to finish reading
you can tell me when it’s over if the high was worth the pain by @elsaclack
Brooklyn Nine Nine | T | Jake Peralta/Amy Santiago
Summary: “Post s4 finale fic, in 4 movements.” Amy gets Jake out of prison. 
One of my favourite takes on the s4 finale. 35k words that I read in one go, late into the night. 
A fic that made you feel seen
No Way Out by heeroluva
Buffy the Vampire Slayer | G | Oz Osbourne 
Summary: “Oz had thought there was something wrong with him.” Asexual Oz. 
and a big kudos to anyone who made it to the end of this list :)

FEMSLASHREVIEWFEST DAY 3
A recent fic from one of your current fandoms
Title: Bloody Mabel
Author: burglebezzlement
Fandom/Pairing: Mabel/Pacifica (Gravity Falls)
Summary: When Pacifica decides to prove that Bloody Mabel is just an urban legend, she summons a creature she couldn’t have imagined: Mabel Pines.
Rating: T
Warning: Canon-level abusive parents
Submitter’s notes: I love supernatural AUs! I love how, although their interaction at the beginning is almost the same, Mabel being a cryptid makes Pacifica being all weirded out and agressive and not wanting to be friends at first far more natural, far less a bullying thing. And I love a lot the little touches of Pacifica freeing herself of her parents.

do you know any good lyatt fan fictions?
Agh I actually haven’t read any in way too long, so I’m not at all up to date on what’s been posted. Instead I just went through my bookmarked Lyatt fics on tumblr. 
So apologies if it’s nothing new! 
One Time That Wyatt Almost Buckled Lucy In, Three Times He Did, And One Time He Didn’t by ShipperWriterWyatt slides his seatbelt on easily enough; he’s been in enough military vehicles where the big buckles come easily to him.Lucy, on the other hand, spends a full ten, maybe fifteen seconds trying to figure out how the jigsaw puzzle works.{The titles of the first four chapters are the episode names where each chapter occurs.}
open to possibilities by TolkienGirlThe kiss, it meant nothing.
nobody said it was easy by surreyLucy Preston has never been sure what to think of her soul mark, but she thinks that if her soulmate calls her “ma'am” when she’s anything less than 40 she might be annoyed. Then Wyatt Logan won’t stop calling her “ma'am” and she decides she hadn’t been annoyed enough. Wyatt Logan doesn’t want to like his soulmate because he still feels guilty about not having Jessica’s words when she had his. Lucy Preston might change his mind. (AKA the slightly-angsty soulmate AU nobody asked for)
The sequel for that one is also amazing.
when you’re in the darkness, only the blind can see by aredburnSometimes you need to redo history to change who you will become. Sometimes history is the present.
Wyatt, Out Of Time by burglebezzlementThere is no timeline in which Wyatt can accept Jessica’s death.
(Fast)Forward by OnceUponAWhimLucy makes a visit later that night. Post-ep for “The Lost Generation”.
Timing by OnceUponAWhim They’ve come back to many slightly altered realities by now. This is not one they’ve seen before. [Wyatt/Lucy]
Actually, anything by OnceUponAWhim. I haven’t read it all, but everything I have read I’ve loved so I have no reason to believe they’d let you down! 
Inevitable by ArgylePirateWDAfter years of working together, Lucy and Wyatt finally share their first real kiss.
Repetition by RavensWingLucy is willing to do anything to get Amy back, to get that journal out of Garcia Flynn’s hands, even if that anything includes sleeping with her teammate.Hopefully this gets you started? Any a recommendation: if there is an author that you like, look through THEIR bookmarks; odds are, they’re going be bookmarking fics with similar concepts/characterisation.

Eleanor x Tahani fic rec - First Edition
So these are the ones I’ve liked so far.
An Analysis of Attempt 218 and Why It Failed, Or Human Feelings are Stupid and Annoying and Surprisingly Unpredictable. by ao3 author Amazing_E_ko - OMG if you haven’t read this, you haven’t read eleanor x tahani fics yet. THIS IS FOR REAL LIKE A LOST TGP EPISODE. It is so good, I sometimes feel like this actually happened in the show, and it’s so well-written, you can tell the writer studies characters and the show neatly. I’m not even gonna spoil the set up or the plot, just go read it if you haven’t, period.
Enough by ao3 user grumpyhedgehogs - one of the best, simply put. The plot is that everyone is alive and Tahani saves Eleanor’s life in a parking lot. 1 chapter, but not a oneshot, very original story-telling by connecting flashbacks of Tahani’s life to her present now that she’s met Eleanor. It’s so good and lovely, it really sold me a beliveably scenario in which Tahani is the one with a crush first, and it warmed my chest, go read it.
Sleepless in Sydney by kesdax - UGH listen, everything that’s written by kesdax is good. This is a oneshot set in S3 when the brainy bunch is in Australia, the plot is simple, it’s cute, it’s sexy, if that’s what you’re looking for, just go for it.
Hotter Than Hell by @terapsina - One of those short ones that leave you wanting for more, according to the author themself, it was written... for reasons. Rated T.
Soulmate, Shmolmate? by ao3 author donutsweeper - This one’s the definition of meet-cute, and for someone who ADORES first kiss fics, this one does a marvelous job in its few lines. 10/10 adorable.
Down in the Undergrowth by ao3 author burglebezzlement - how to describe this fic... the plot is very original (author’s summary + notes: “Michael sends Eleanor into the wilderness to search for a door. Tahani volunteers to join her. Because Eleanor’s a bad person. She’ll need Tahani’s help. Won’t she?”; “Can be read as either canon-departure just after S1E9, or alternatively, as something that takes place in The Good Place 2.0 after things have played out for a bit and Eleanor's secret has been exposed.”) , it’s a slowburn, it’s lovely how Eleanor x Tahani connect and bond, it made me feel warm and fuzzy. 1 Chapter. GOOD AUTHOR ALERT, these are more works that I loved by the same author, which are all 1 chapter and with a plot that is cool and lovely moments between Eleanor and Tahani: True Love Is What Janet and Jianyu Have, Strange as Angels, and Hell Takes All the Credit.
loathing, unadulterated loathing by @toast-the-unknowing - 1 chapter au where they’re roommates, I wasn’t very game when I read it was, but trust me, it’s cool. The set up of the universe is beliveable and on point to the characters and I just enjoyed it so much. I hadn’t felt so entertained by a fic in a while til I found this one.
it’s a little thing by ao3 author allthingsgo (they have a tumblr i think, but it has no posts, so i don’t know if it’s migrated or...?) - this author will have you believe Tahani is a lesbian, for real. I hadn’t smiled so much while reading a fic in a while. I was in awe of author’s skills to write something so adorable in such an organic fashion which goals tbh. Oneshot, where Tahani and Eleanor decorate the place for christmas, in the author’s words: this is about Tahani unabashedly finding Eleanor adorable.
Want What You Wish For by @intosnarkness - this was one of the first M rated fics that I read and liked, it’s very well-written. Rather than being about reboot #218, it’s set up in reboot #333 when everybody’s soulmate is a pet. It’s just 1 chapter, but it’s not exactly a oneshot in the way it’s written. 
Good Enough for You by ao3 author JeremyBearimy - It’s chaptered, it’s not finished, and I wasn’t keen on how it sets the mood up in the first chapter, but if you want a shameless smut, it’s good, let’s just say that.
One Hundred Percent Seems Excesive by ao3 author grumpyhedgehogs - this author blessed me for a good few weeks, cause they wrote 100 drabbles. That’s right. 100 drabbles of Eleanor x Tahani mostly established relationship that has quite a variety to offer.
I...uh... I wrote a fic too, 1 chapter, rated T, I’m kind of embarrased to link it here after all of these wonderful ones, cause it’s not as good and I really can’t write for the excentricities of the filthy rich like Tahani, and I don’t completely grasp the essence of Eleanor Shellstrop, BUT I wrote something I wanted to read, it was fun to write, so maybe read it? It’s called Let us be wrong and let’s being, inspired by one Shakira song that’s gay af, the fic is set in S3 when they’re all alive and being annoyed by Trevor, and I plan to write a sequel.
