YQY/SY has been at the back of my mind these last few days and I keep coming back to the following as opening lines for a fic.
It's not that Shen Yuan set out with the intention to steal someone's husband, he came free with the transmigration!
With the premise being that upon waking up and seeing YQY by his side and (by the donghua's canon) sitting on the same bed as him, all concerned like, SY would assume qijiu were in a relationship. It would be, of course, really messy and miscommunication is a given but I feel like it could work out and binghe would end up with two father figures (that he still grows obsessed with-}

Fucking. Re-reading the comic for accuracy and Dave knows Bro's password for his computer account. I am bashing my head into a wall.
Imagine Dirk goes through all that trouble of tearing apart the house to find the passwords only for Dave to go "bro you know you could've just asked me for this shit right?" cause he knows every single one of them. Dirk definitely would've punched the wall. If not the monitor.
Not retconning this because one, I wanted Dirk to get to feel actually useful for once, and two, the implications are freaking hilarious. So Dave (most likely or at least for Appear) doesn't know all of Bro's passwords, just his main one. Perhaps I'll address it next chapter.

They're curled together in Rodney's bed, afterglow fading into something quiet and soft, when Rodney remembers the email he'd gotten from Jeannie earlier that day.
"Oh, you're going to like this," he says, grabbing his tablet and pulling up the image folder. "Jeannie sent over a bunch of digitized pictures from a half-decade of miserable family gatherings."
John grins, and Rodney knows he's hoping for material for teasing, but Rodney's already pre-screened the images, so he probably won't find—
"Jesus," John says, his eyes big, and Rodney panics, face heating up, before John continues, "you're always talking about how handsome you were when you were younger, but I thought you were just…" He licks his lips, swallows, and Rodney feels himself blushing for an entirely different reason, now. "Wow."
"Yeah, I know," Rodney mumbles, feeling somehow both flattered and annoyed, not to mention weirdly jealous of his younger self. "What happened, right?"
John shakes his head, eyes flicking from the tablet screen up to Rodney's face, then back again. "It's still you," he says, "just…different."
He seems, somehow, to be sincere, so Rodney just shrugs, lets John flip through the pictures, Rodney at fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen.
"Man, if I'd met you back then I totally would've tried to suck you off in a bathroom stall," John says, quiet and offhand, and Rodney shudders, swallows hard. John looks at him, half-smiling, and sets the tablet aside. "Think you would've…"

commentary please!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
one HUNDRED years later, an answer for the fic commentary meme: send 500 words or less of a fic, get rambles about it!
this is Teenage Dream, a fic about lost queer youth and the sexual power of star wars on VHS.
They're curled together in Rodney's bed, afterglow fading into something quiet and soft, when Rodney remembers the email he'd gotten from Jeannie earlier that day.
I initially kind of intended for this fic to just be the pillow talk part of it: I find the thought of John and Rodney affirming each other like this to be really sweet and I wanted to explore it a little bit.
"Oh, you're going to like this," he says, grabbing his tablet and pulling up the image folder. "Jeannie sent over a bunch of digitized pictures from a half-decade of miserable family gatherings." John grins, and Rodney knows he's hoping for material for teasing, but Rodney's already pre-screened the images, so he probably won't find— "Jesus," John says, his eyes big, and Rodney panics, face heating up, before John continues, "you're always talking about how handsome you were when you were younger, but I thought you were just…" He licks his lips, swallows, and Rodney feels himself blushing for an entirely different reason, now. "Wow."
every time i see images of young David Hewlett i feel like i am going insane. like i find him hot at every age but he was fucking. PRETTY when he was younger ok??? and it makes me crazy to think of Rodney McKay having looked like that. and of course he thinks John's going to make fun of him, still doesn't quite believe that someone like John would be attracted to him.
"Yeah, I know," Rodney mumbles, feeling somehow both flattered and annoyed, not to mention weirdly jealous of his younger self. "What happened, right?" John shakes his head, eyes flicking from the tablet screen up to Rodney's face, then back again. "It's still you," he says, "just…different."
like i said, i love them affirming each other like this!
He seems, somehow, to be sincere, so Rodney just shrugs, lets John flip through the pictures, Rodney at fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen. "Man, if I'd met you back then I totally would've tried to suck you off in a bathroom stall," John says, quiet and offhand, and Rodney shudders, swallows hard. John looks at him, half-smiling, and sets the tablet aside. "Think you would've…"
so the fic goes on to the two of them sort of falling into a little roleplay of what it would've been like if they'd met when they were teenagers, what it would've been like if John had tried something with Rodney way back then, how Rodney might've reacted. i think Rodney really wants for John to be the key for him, because he's used to John changing his life, John opening up new experiences for him. one of the things that i find so compelling about mcshep is how emotionally battered they both are when they find each other, how they clearly don't believe themselves to be worthy of love; as much as that aspect of them is important to me, it's also very healing to imagine the two of them having each other's backs in their youth the way they do as adults.

Spoiler for Across the Spiderverse under the cut!
I’m not exactly sure what exactly happened (for several reasons) with the universe that Miguel broke canon in as it seems Peter B. Parker was also there but fic idea that Miguel broke the canon of Reader’s universe where they were the hero as Miguel wasn’t the Spider-Man of that universe in the movie anyways. Miguel was able to take Reader with him.
This makes for some complications between the two of them as Reader now moves on to prevent it from happening to another Spider. It also leads to an absolute internal struggle for Reader during the events of the movie as if they had known they would have done something like Miles is trying to do, but the fact that breaking canon is what broke their universe in the first place and they’ve been dedicated to keeping canon since. They admire Miles’ determination though.
(I say Reader because that’s what I write and I intend to write this. I don’t know if I would include a romance because I don’t know who I would write it with. Any feedback or anything on this would be nice, honestly.)

Getting close to being able to work on Part 19 of the Herrmann/Halstead Production series and I can't decide if I should write and post as I'm able to (like I normally do) even if that means delays between chapters. (Possibly long ones because I did finish one project, but I still have another one to work on. 🙃) Or wait until I have a bunch done so I can possibly aim for a regular posting schedule? Or wait even longer and write the whole thing and post it in one go. Let's be real - I'll probably do what I always do, but we'll see how it goes, lol - I might get wild. (Or organized? Depending on how you look at it?) IN ANY CASE - I'm very excited and I have to stop myself from speeding through the plot just to get to the scene I've been waiting to write FOREVER.
(You know what it is.)

I love how Théodred is overthinking and trying to rationalise everything like "oh sure he's hot. I have a little crush. But it's no big deal because we're friends and it's normal to want to fuck your friends a little bit right?? anyone I'll just marry someone and forget about it and it will be fine. no anguish here at all haha :)))"
Meanwhile Boromir is just like: *oblivious oblivious oblivious* oh shit I'm in love

Let it be known that you should never hesitate to comment on older fics and/or tell the author how much you enjoy their work, because it might just motivate them to get back to an abandoned WIP, thus providing you with even more content.

I’ve been writing notes on my Pet Semetery Ghoap fic.
And listen the scene where Ghost helps dig Soap out of his grave.
I’m having a blast with that scene. Bc the comparisons this man is making in his own head.
He has absolutely lost it with grief. Gone completely mental trying to bring Soap back.

in the medically discharged soap au im working on i wanna make him have dysautonomia. like he loses his left leg below the knee thats gotta fuck with your ans somehow. plus i have dysautonomia and i think the way it interacts with the pns and sns would be cool to explore not cool but like good?? not good its bad but like i want to inflict pain and having a disorder that makes your autonomic nervous system suck paired with ptsd which makes your nervous system hyperactive theres gotta be something there. does this make sense? i probably need to write this down in a clear way before i actually implement it into the story

thinking about how to write people doing silent meaningless things to show they care. taking your three quarters full water bottle and filling it up. moving a chair over to sit next to you even though there was one open on the other side.
