marigold promises

— 31. "just" the lab report [☕︎ = 0.4k words]

As the hours tick by and the sun dips below the horizon, you find yourself still nestled on the worn couch in the cramped living room, poring over your textbooks. It's hardly an ideal study environment — the constant bickering between the seven-year-old you're babysitting and the sibling she likes to annoy hardly contributes to your concentration. Yet you stay anyway, driven by an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. You crave answers like a desert craves rain, and you won't rest until you've found them.

After all, it would be nice to see Rhinedottir again after all these years, wouldn’t it?

More time passes; the night sky unfurls. The clock marks the time 5:58 p.m., and a comfortable silence settles between the three of you. You and Albedo finally complete your lab report while Klee hunches over her worksheets, studying for an upcoming quiz.

“It’s getting pretty late, Cupcake,” Albedo starts. “Do you want to go ahead and head back to campus?”

You wave off his concern. “Curfew isn’t until a couple of hours from now. I can wait.”

The room falls silent again as you all return to your tasks. The only sounds are the scratch of Klee's pencil on paper and the faint hum of the AC. The stillness of the moment is interrupted only by the occasional rustle of pages or the tapping of keys on a keyboard. You feel a sense of calm wash over you, grateful for the respite from the chaos of the day.

You wish you could stay wrapped in this tranquility, even for just a moment longer.

But at last, the sound of the door unlocking rewards your hours of patience. Now that the moment is actually here, though, you find yourself frozen in place, all the words you’ve prepared escaping you.

Rhinedottir has always been strict with Albedo. She had never truly approved of your friendship with him, claiming that associating themselves with a competitor would only serve as a source of distraction.

That’s definitely one thing she has in common with your mother.

“Mom!” Klee gasps and runs to the door, laughing as she’s snatched into an embrace.

Their mother laughs in turn, “Klee, Albedo. How have you two been? Not too bored without me I hope.”

You recognize that voice. And it’s not the voice you expected to hear.

“Mhm! Albedo brought someone here and they’re super nice.” Klee rambles on about everything you did as she and her mother make their way into the living room.

You finally get a look at her.

"[Name]?" Alice greets, her look of surprise turning into one of joy, "It's been so long since I've last seen you! How have you been?"

— previous || masterlist || next

summary: you and albedo have finally reached a mutual understanding as your first year of college comes to a close. with a new school year comes a new beginning, and you start off strong with albedo asking you the oddest of arrangements: "would you like to be lab partners?"

author's notes:

idk how the college campus curfew works so shush suspend your disbelief. you’re sleeping in the same room as albedo ok

he also just bought you a shirt, undergarments, and some sweatpants. gotta make sure you’re comfy

Spider — ethan landry

Description: You worry Ethan for a moment, until he realizes it’s not that serious.

Pairing: Spider-Man!Ethan Landry x GN!Reader (no use of y/n)

Warnings: mentions of spiders but no actual description, mentions of kidnapping but no actual kidnapping, ethan is just an overthinker, use of ‘babe’ as pet name like three times, not proofread

Word Count: 688

Author’s Note: this is for all spider haters i hate spiders so bad. yes it’s in my url yes i hate spiders

The events of the past week made Ethan giddy, practically bouncing on his feet every time he was around you. He asked you out last week, and the dating stage had been progressing nicely despite his Spider-Man duties. He no longer had to worry about bothering you whenever he landed on your fire escape bruised and wounded as your best friend, because on your third date (which was interrupted by a giant green lizard—not cool), you told him that no matter what happened, you will always fix him up. It was the closest thing he’d gotten to a declaration of love, even if it was just the third date.

Long story short: It was a great week.

And here he was, cooking both of you dinner with a recipe he practiced the day before as to make sure he wouldn’t fuck it up, and you were getting something from your bedroom when—

A shriek—your shriek—reached his ears.

He dropped the wooden spoon on the floor, unable to think about cleaning the mess up later because what if somehow, some way, one of his enemies found out his identity and tracked him to you? And—oh god—you left your bedroom window open to let in the breeze, what if you were taken?

The door almost broke from its hinges at his entrance, and his eyes fell on your figure in the center of the room. He ran over to you, checking for any injuries, hugging you as close to him as possible because his web-shooters were back in the other room and he was an idiot for not thinking to bring it.

“What—what is it?” He tightened his hold on you while he looked around the room, not seeing any threat but he’d be a liar if the thought of an invisible nemesis didn’t cross his mind. “Are you okay?”

You nuzzled your head into the crook of his neck, letting out a too-quiet mumble, too quiet even for his spider senses to hear.

“You’re gonna have to say it louder, babe. I can’t hear you.” Where the hell did babe come from?

“There’s a spider—and—and it’s gone, and I don’t know where it went and—“

The biggest weight on his chest had just been lifted. “You scared me,” He breathed out, pulling back to see your worried face turn into bewilderment.

“Ethan!” You lightly slapped his chest. “This is serious, what if it crawls on me while I sleep?!”

He laughed, much to your distress. “Babe, it’s just a spider. It can’t do that much damage.”

“I’m scared.” You whispered, and he pulled you back into an embrace.

The rumble of his laughter did make you feel better, though.

“Okay, how about this,” he rubbed your back in comfort. “We’ll eat here, then go back to my place, and you can sleep there. Is that okay? I can take the couch.”

“But there’s gonna be another spider there.” You rebutted.

“What—I’ll make sure—“ He stammered, until he realized. “Oh, you’re real funny.”

You pulled back just a tad to see his grin, mirroring yours. “I can’t believe you forgot.”

“I thought you were in danger.”

“I’m sorry, babe.” You enunciated the ‘babe’ which wasn’t lost on him. “When did we call each other that?”

“I—I didn’t—It just came out, okay?” He shrugged, hands intertwined behind your back. “Do you not want me to?”

“Well,” you pretended to think about it. “Since you’re my spider, I guess it’s okay.”

His heart fluttered at the possessive word, my. He was yours.

“You don’t have to take the couch,” you whispered, inching closer to him.

“I’m not letting you sleep on the couch,” he shook his head.

“That’s not what I meant.”

“Then what—oh,” He gaped like a fish out of water. He searched your eyes for any jokes, to find none. “Oh.”

You hummed, nodding. “Is that okay?”

“More than okay.”

Saw a screening of Red, White, and Royal Blue! Mild spoilers under the cut :)

Guys, it's adorable. Very much the book on fast forward; they were kind of boom-instantly-in-love. I missed the depth of the book and seeing their relationship slowly build up over hundreds of pages, and the book will always reign supreme for me, but this is both it's own thing and a truly lovely highlights reel of the book, and I don't think anyone will be disappointed if they approach it with that mindset. It didn't feel like two hours at all; the pacing was great and there were no dead spots. After seeing it, I agree with the decision to remove the characters they removed; there was barely any time even for Nora because things are pretty laser focused on the Henry/Alex relationship.

Matthew did a really cute thing to visually represent their early text flirting :) :) :)

The chemistry. Is. So. Stunning. It felt so real and I felt almost voyeuristic watching them together sometimes. They kissed maybe 11-12 times? I lost count after 8 :) Some of those were multiple kisses in the same scenes though. I'm so excited to watch everyone collectively lose their minds over it all. They were physically and emotionally gorgeous together. And I gotta say, they did Taylor dirty with the Alex clips they've released. He was beautifully subtle most of the time, but so many of the clips are him over-the-top annoyed with Henry or drunk at the wedding. I wasn't expecting to love movie Alex as much as I did.

Stay to the end, there's a tiiiiiiiiiiiiiny post-credit scene, you won't die if you miss it but it's a funny continuation of a previous scene.

PARTIAL NUDITY SPOILERS: Taylor's butt, for a good 5-10 seconds when Zahra busts into the room and is searching for whoever Alex slept with :)

Like other reviews have said, it absolutely captures the heart of the book, and I think everyone is going to really love it. Already excited to watch again and freak out with everyone tomorrow.

ALSO, belatedly adding this because it's been low key bothering me even though I get why they did it: they changed some of Henry's last names. It's written in this Buzzfeed article if you want to see it ahead of time. Someone is already squatting on the tumblr url, respect. As soon as they said it in the movie, I was like, "but his tumblr tags!!!".

Chinese LOTM Fic Recs

(@ihavenobigbrain)

I was asked about this, so here we go! (rubs hands together =D)

A few things to know:

I'll only separate by site (either AO3 or Lofter) and whether it's gen or has a ship. None of these recs have smut as far as I remember, as I rarely if ever read it.

I am not Chinese and know nothing about the Chinese language. I've read these fics through the browser translator. Likely there are errors in the translated English titles provided, please feel free to correct them.

For Lofter fics, I'm using the blog url (x in "x.lofter.com") as the writer's name, though idk if that's how it should be done.

Also for Lofter fics, I've linked the first chapter for multi-chapter stories. The rest can be found by going to the user's archive, or (with a bit more difficulty) by clicking on one of the tags at the bottom and going through that.

Recs under the cut because this became a longer post than I expected. Hope you find something to enjoy from this!

[kurolini909]

About me!

This might be sudden, but I'm working on a Master Post and thought to include this section. ^^

Who am I?

Hello everyone, I'm Kurolini909! An artist, character creator, aspiring designer, writer and storytelling enthusiast!

Nickname/URL;

My current URL (Kurolini909) is an extension of my former one (Kuro909), which was based on a cat character from an anime I enjoyed when younger!

I decided to extend it so that it would be a bit less generic. The current one plays a little with the letters and sound of my actual name which I will not be revealing. The numeral does not have any particular meaning.

Former Online Presence;

I was originally better known as an Undertale content creator, though I'm attempting to deviate from that now. I still love the game and fandom, but I want to explore different medias and also develop a bit on original projects and pieces!

Undertale was the very first major fandom I actually joined - I had experience with the Warrior Cats fandom before that, but not in regards to actually producing content - back when I was a pre-teen. I immediately fell into the shipchildren, shipping and Alternate Universes corner of the community, and assumed that was just what you were supposed to do over there.

I sorta had no idea what I was doing with fandoms back then, so... Yeah. I recognize that this foundation ended up making a huge part of my online presence and there's not much point not acknowledging it whatever I'm into nowadays.

I created a few ship children, but no longer feel attracted by that niche in fandoms and am more inclined to make OCs within the universe unrelated at all to actual characters, or just Original Characters altogether. It is unlikely I'll create anything similar again. I very much love the personas I came up with and developed in that time though, and they might be repurposed into their own separate things at some point.

Additionally, the people I met through creating these characters and participating in that part of the fandom are all lovely and incredibly talented. I made a ton of remarkable friends I don't think I would have interacted with otherwise, so I'm quite fond of that period!

My Current Content;

Currently, I find that I'm happier not restraining myself to one specific content type anymore. I will post whatever I'm in the mood for, which I'm hoping will bring a lot more variety into the blog.

I'm prone to hyperfixations, and the likeability is that my content will come in waves of whatever media I'm inclined to at a time. I do not, however, make any commitments to stay posting that in the long term. As I said, my content will vary according to my current interest.

Interests;

When I enter a fandom, I rarely actually leave it.

I think everything I ever liked just sort of goes dormant for a while to give way to newer interests until nostalgia peeks my attention back to it, so I thought it was worth mentioning some of the media I enjoyed consuming and creating content for, and still do from time to time!

Transformers (several continuities, mostly Prime and MTMTE), Avatar: The Last Airbender, Pokémon, The Dragon Prince, Hazbin Hotel & Helluva Boss, Good Omens, Warrior Cats, Books (generalized), The Owl House, Five Nights At Freddy's, Hollow Knight, Animes and cartoons (generalized).

I believe that's it!

I'll be making a couple more text posts like this one to add to that Master Post I was talking about, but for this one, thanks for sticking around! ^^

#kurolini909 #text post #about me #for my masterpost

[shadowoffandoms]

CRACKED DOWN AND PULLED AN ALL-NIGHTER SEARCHING THE WELCOME HOME WEBSITE - analysis below!

Alright first off, love the little pixel guys they're adorable! Explored all the new pages, loved the voice acting, all that jazz! I thought at first it was a design choice, but I found these little creatures lying about. Clicking them leads you to a video called "answer" that centers around one of the many cast members. Wally is also there, it always cuts out right before his name though.

I didn't really focus on those (too tired), but I think there's a code in the URL? I'll come back to that tomorrow.

What I did notice was the drawings appearing out of thin air, and also being drawn in front of my eyes. Clicking on them leads to an audio recording of Wally, saying various things. The tab names are all one word, such as "I" "Understand" "Will"

I managed to sort them out and got this:

If you can't read that, it says "I Will understand. I will Help You find a way soon Neighbor." Why is it this way, you ask? Why dear reader, it's because of how the dialogue flows. And also repeated words were labeled 1 and 2 so...

ANYWAYS! Entire flow of speech/giant text bubble that Wally says is below!

“There you are. Welcome Home. Ha ha ha! You’re the most! Ha ha ha! ….You’re so still. What are you doing. Do you like Home? Home is my house. Do you have a Home too? Do you hear it too? You can hear mine. Do you like to draw? I do. Do you know how to draw an eye? First, you draw a circle. Next you draw a smaller circle inside. Then you color it in. That’s what an eye looks like. My eyes are black. What color are yours? What are you waiting for. To hear me again? Ha ha ha! I think… That means you can hear me. Can you see me? That’s okay if you can’t. Don’t worry, I know you’re there. You know I’m here too. I will talk to you. …I can’t hear you …Do you know who I am? We’ve looked into each other's eyes so many times. You’re looking at me now. I have more eyes than I did before. You know how to draw eyes. You draw mine many times. I know it is thanks to you, neighbor, that I can see. But it is still… I can’t… See. …Why won’t you answer me, neighbor. Why can’t I hear you. You know me. You do. Please open. Let me in. Let me in." [There is no dialogue. Only the sounds of Home creaking, groaning, banging, or squeaking. …Morse code?]

All of the above is directly taken from the website as a transcription for the audio.

So Wally is trapped, and that's all I got right now. I can't do morse code, and if you want to listen to the recording of that last part, go the secret "As Above So Below" part and wait for a spiral to appear. It leads you right to that audio.

Anyways, I gotta sleep now but goddamn that was fun.

[paradoxcase]

Chapter 23 of Nona the Ninth

I have actually already read Chapter 24, because I got to the end of this one and was like "...what?", but they're both long chapters, so they get different posts

Right at the beginning of this chapter, we are back to referring to Ianthe with she/her pronouns, right after we were referring to her with he/him pronouns at the end of the last chapter. I'm not sure what we are meant to understand here in terms of what Nona's thoughts on Ianthe's gender are

So Ianthe also doubts that blindness would protect necromancers from the resurrection beast. Also, her referring to Naberius's body as "some old thing from last season" is hilarious

Wasn't it Pyrrha who told Ianthe that Harrow was around? Ianthe did ask We Suffer to send her Harrow before Corona ever mentioned her

Ianthe is just so mad that she did everything right and was the smartest girl who succeeded the best at the Canaan House trial and ascended to the highest position possible in this society for anyone who isn't John and she saved the Nine Houses from being destroyed by saving John from the Stoma, but I think she still feels like she's made less of an impact on the world/John's general temperament than Camilla did by stealing the Sixth House. And now she's stuck alone with John being cranky and Gideon, who probably also isn't a big fan of her, and she's been stuck in Babs' dead body for three days and it's just not fair

I mean, the last time Ianthe actually interacted with Harrow, Harrow didn't even remember who Gideon was. It's interesting that she's not even entertaining the possibility that that's still the case. Also, like, Ianthe showed Gideon's body on the broadcast, but she named her as "Kiriona Gaia" at that time and she's now under the impression that Harrow has been blind all this time. So I'm surprised that she doesn't also think that that gambit failed to work for that reason. There's really a very large number of reasons to be pretty confident that Harrow wouldn't be asking to see Gideon's body at this point

Interesting, so this method of FTL travel is limited based on mass, and more obelisks transport more mass. I'm not sure if the "compensation" referred to is compensating for needing more obelisks than could be safely used, or just a general compensation needed for transporting something so large, or what "compensation" means here. Did they have to sacrifice people for thanergy? Also, if they can go wherever using these obelisks, how are BOE keeping them captive?

Right, so that's the "break clause" courtesy the Lyctor who used to be a contract lawyer. But it doesn't sound like this was a contract she made with John, just something she set up within the Sixth House leadership

Also, I love finding like, the urls and blog titles and stuff of my Locked Tomb followers and other people I see in the tag in the book and going, oh, that's what that means, so shout out to @jods-duplicitous-sluts for this one

I mean, this sort of raises the question of how Ianthe was planning on bringing Corona and Pyrrha and the Sixth House back to John? They're not Lyctors, and therefore can't survive physically going through the River

So the absence of live soldiers is because of Pyrrha

Who does she think is in Harrow's body here? Originally I figured she thought it was Gideon, but she's got Gideon in the back, and I think these two chapters establish pretty well that Gideon is in fact still moving around and generally being Gideon. Does she think Gideon has somehow left her body and is now possessing Harrow for some reason? I think she would have expected Gideon to talk back to her, too, though, wouldn't she? Ianthe doesn't have any knowledge about how Harrow opened the Tomb and was being haunted by Alecto

I'm not sure what happened here beyond that Nona is probably Alecto and did something resurrection-beast-adjacent, and maybe Judith screaming was also resurrection-beast-related since her issues are caused by the resurrection beast? Also, it seems to have done something to the electricity, which reminds me of how the lights dimmed when Mayonnaise Uncle did his soul-summoning thing, but I don't think necromancy has ever been described as having an effect on electricity outside of those two events

I wonder if these instances of water coming out of Nona's orifices are symptoms of her impending death, or what

Does John actually have multiple Hands, plural, at this point? I think at last count it was just Ianthe, right?

I love that there's all this high-stakes drama going down and Corona is threatening to kill herself to get Ianthe duel Camilla, and this is the thing she's being dying to say to her this whole time, that Ianthe is disrespecting Babs' body by not styling his hair correctly

So Corona at least threatened to commit suicide multiple times as a teenager. It makes sense, she was under a lot of pressure to be something she wasn't. She does genuinely like Ianthe and is glad that Palamedes didn't kill her, but I imagine it was different from her side where she knew that her survival in her social context probably depended on Ianthe being with her and supporting her her whole life. Maybe that's part of why she became so good at being likeable

What does "none of us ever could" mean here? It's not like they have a long association with Camilla

Camilla's completely deadpan sass is off the charts. I hope she winds up keeping it

Is she giving verbal orders to a bunch of dead bodies that she's directly controlling using necromancy?

Hot Sauce is a cut the Gordian Knot kind of gal

Apparently:

So it's another joke. Also, something something Saint of Awe probably goes here, but I'm not clever enough for this right now

She never fought Babs, or witnessed Babs fighting anyone - she must be referring to Ianthe fighting Colum and Cytherea at the end of Gideon the Ninth, when she was having a lot of trouble fully integrating Babs. So yeah, there's multiple reasons why she would be much better now

GET TO KNOW THE MUN. || respond to the prompts out of character!

what made you pick up the current muse(s) you have?

oh my rodness it was hard ! because when you watch Moral Orel for the first time season 1 is very crude ! but I knew there was something to be desired by the end because I was first exposed to the episode 'Sacrifice' first and foremost which had me very curious.

[heroftruth]

behind the scenes character notes

'heroftruth' used to have two o's. It's been a constant user name/url/ present somewhere. While Hilda will not refer to herself as a hero so to speak, that position of Reshiram's chosen has been a constant central theme since the night I started writing her. It's a defining point in her story.

Expressing Hilda's trauma more properly has been a theme since I picked her back up in 2020. I've had this muse for a LONG time and while the heart of her (a small-town girl who had a strong belief in what was right and refused to back down) has stayed the same, she has definitely evolved.

I view her and N as two sides of the same coin, a foil to one another. N isn't a villain, he's an anti-hero. In older takes on Hilda I followed as her reasoning for leaving Unova was to look for N, because one she wanted to make sure he was okay and two it felt to her like he would be the only one to really understand what she went through. They both had the weight of the region on their shoulders. While she still does look for N and follows leads (same reasons still) I changed things in 2020 as her needing to get away because I didn't want it being viewed by others as the stereotypical "oh the protag dropped everything to find N". Because there is more to it than that.

Her Samurott's name, Percy, comes from Percy Jackson. I know, look I was 14 and couldn't think of another water-type male name, and it just STUCK.

Hilda having trauma from the events with plasma has been a constant. Having experienced that sort of intense fear and pressure is trauma and so is something that shouldn't have happened to you making you lose out on normal experiences. I've just progressively better at writing expressions of trauma as I've learned more about it.

One of my goals with Hilda has always been showing a female character with trauma not letting it own her. One of my favorite book series, Shatter Me, has a character like this (Juliette Ferrars) and that character has been a big inspiration since around 2015.

Katniss and Snow (hunger games) conversation scenes are inspo for writing involving Hilda and Ghetsis. That cold & calculated dynamic vs unwilling to give up because there are people you care about that need you to keep going.

Hilda was not the strongest protagonist in terms of pokemon team levels. If you play though BW without excessive training, only doing enough training to be up against what the game puts in front of you, you'll finish with your pokemon in the 50's. The strongest opponent pokemon is level 54. All of my other games main teams (without excessive training) have finished in the 70's. I see her strength coming from the way her and her pokemon work together and her determination. People are going to have a challenge facing her, even if their pokemon are higher level, but it may be more of a "she and her team are very much one" type thing. Her team is definitely higher levels now, around 70's-verging 90's maybe one or two is in low 90's but it's been years.

The levels you end in bw are the reason WHY I hc that the events of BW occurred at a FAST pace and within MONTHS. No later than ten months at the MOST.

my last thing is this muse is just, I love her okay? Hopefully that shows <3

Important Housekeeping Announcement for the AU In Which All The Marriages Are Arranged

Honestly I'm structuring this more as a letter because I'm a bit emotional about this entire situation.

With the current state of AI scraping the internet and stealing art and stories right and left, I have locked my AO3 to AO3 users only.

Yes, AO3 has already been scraped, but chances are high they will continue scraping and any level of protection available is something I want to take advantage of. I'd been putting it off because I had over 100 works and that was just...a lot. But I figured out how to lock them all at once so that's done now.

Given The State of Things, I honestly don't really trust that tumblr also will not/has not already been scraped so the chances not zero that I am not going to post the full fics on here, just links to the AO3 posts. I will keep posting snippets on here bc i crave validation, but the actual, full form fics themselves might be just on AO3. I really don’t know.

I hate doing this because I really want to keep my stories as accessible to as many people as possible and some of my earliest fandom memories are of so many fics I was following and loved disappearing, either deleted or friend locked, as Livejournal went dark in the aftermath of Strikethrough.

I really do encourage everyone who doesn't have an AO3 account to get one if you can. It is invite only but the waiting list does move at a fairly decent pace and if you know someone who does have an account already they might still have invites they can give you.

I've been on AO3 for a long time and am perfectly willing to answer any questions at all, about functionality or the controversies surrounding it. Both my DMs and my askbox (here and my main) are open, including for anonymous messages (though sending an anon message is risky because I am incredibly adhd and sometimes it takes me a bit to actually answer asks and you won't get an alert when I answer an anonymous one you sent, if you have a question you don't want your name on publicly, you can send a dm or just tell me in the ask you would rather stay anonymous and i can make a fresh post without your url on it or answer the ask privately as you are comfortable with.)

I know the mcyt fan community in general skews young, though I'm not sure about the demographics of my little corner here specifically, I myself am ~30 (which is still young in fandom in general) and I have seen destruction of fandom spaces before. We have survived it, we will continue to, but some things; art, fic, original stories, will be lost forever. AO3 is one of if not the most secure place to share your fic. It is an archive designed to last.

I'm getting rambly so I'll sign off here, thanks for reading.

#im linking my ao3 in the notes too #if anyone wants that #ao3 #rain rambles #this also applies to my life series fics #like elements of an interdimensional prison break #and #avatar the legend of jimmy #im not taking down what i already have on here #but i probably won't be posting any new full fics on here #god i hate this so much #marriage of state au

PEOPLE I'D LIKE TO GET TO KNOW BETTER !

alias / name : nix birthday : march 13th zodiac sign : pisces height : 5'10" / 178 cm hobbies : writing, gaming, coding, building lego & model kits favourite colour : purples & blues favourite book : oh man, i've got a few! gonna give it to uprising / the cross duology by scott g. mariani, this time. a good ol' vampire tale! last song : match made in hell by benny mayne & dutch melrose - quickly becoming a new fave of mine, too! last film / show : oh man, last film, probably... dune part 2? and last tv show, i'm at the tail end of watching the night shift's 4th season ... soon i'll be needing something new to binge 😔 recent reads : i started reading eyes like mine by sheena kamal. supposedly it's for fans of the girl with the dragon tattoo, which i read a long while back... so we'll see! inspiration : *hand wave* a bit o' everything, these days! lately i've just been drawing from bits and pieces of stuff, that's not necessarily scifi / dystopian. and even though my miguel is atsv based, i still kinda love drawing inspiration from the comics, and just kinda mashing things together! it's been so much fun! 😁 story behind url : to quote atsv!miguel, 'Being Spider-Man is a sacrifice. That’s the job. That’s what you signed up for' ... and well, this had me thinking, even to this day, that well, miguel puts his all into monitoring the multiverse, trying to keep it intact, to the point that it's consumed him 😢 hence, íobartach ( EE-uh-bur-tukh ) , which, when translated to english, can mean, sacrificial / sacrificing / victim (of sacrifice) , seemed fitting! fun fact about me : dragons have always been my favourite fictional creatures! if you tell me there's a dragon in something, there's a stronggg chance i'll check out that piece of media, be it a book / game / tv / movie, etc!

GET TO KNOW THE MUN.

respond to the prompts out of character!

what made you pick up the current muse(s) you have? oh man. uh. i guess, following my url's general meaning, i choose to write muses on here that have defied their fates/expectations in some shape or form. this is true for more of my older muses on here, as i've definitely added some recently where i have to kinda twist that a bit. aside from that, i really just write muses that i can connect with on some level. my apparent calling is sad men who are prone to violence and are also incredibly sad/lonely. the mains i have floating in my head are usually there because it's the current media i'm consuming (i.e. star wars: the old republic). i could write long metas on why i adore all of my muses though. c':

is there anything you don’t like to write? uhh, you know. i'm actually pretty open to most things. i need some sort of action going on, regardless of the type, to keep interested i suppose. like, if there's a lot of conversation, i tend to get stuck. that's just because i struggle with it and i don't want to bore my partner, though. aside from that, pretty much any genre you throw at me, i'll be interested in writing.

is there anything you really enjoy writing? I'm a sucker for redemption au's, even if it takes thirty threads to get there. i enjoy writing the aftermath of a character's worst arc, and all of the guilt, pain, and sorrow that comes with it. so do i want to write arcann's redemption? yes. do i want to write about nihilus somehow healing from being a literal wound in the force? yes. (or even, writing who he was before malachor.) ragnar going back to being a farmer? please. all of it, yes. aside from that, i really, really enjoy hurt/comfort, violent/gore threads, general sci-fi adventure, and general fantasy adventure (the campfires, the fights, the enemies in between destinations, etc.)

how do you come up with headcanons?  it's kind of a mix between being inspired by outside sources, such as media, music, mututals, and things that pop into my head after hyperfixating about a muse for three straight hours or something. i do adopt headcanons/partial headcanons from other people, but like sparingly and if it's appropriate/i know them/have asked. most of the time i really just get hit in the face with them though.

do you write in silence or do you play music? i am someone that requires music to write. i need to drown out distractions however i can. i really struggle with being easily distracted (getting tested for adhd soon lol) because i can very easily lose a thought before i'm able to write it down. i find that with music i can focus better, and i have playlists that help with whatever mood i'm going for in the reply.

do you plan your replies or wing them? i usually just sort of write what comes to mind first and then, if i have questions about something, i'll either approach the other mun or write things in the tags. sort of referring to the previous question, i try to write my ideas down as soon as i see a reply, or i'll be prone to forgetting them.

do you enjoy shipping? yes, 1000% yes. i love all sorts of relationships, not only the romantic ones. i don't really get to write about platonic/friendships too often, but i really enjoy the times i can. that said, re: romantic ships, i'm usually on board if there's chemistry between muses. i also encourage other muns to approach me if they think they might want to ship because chances are, i'm already on board.

what’s your alias/name?  Lee

age?  old

birthday?  December 25th

favorite color?  silver, purple, black

favorite song?  i... don't think i can choose? there are all sorts of songs that hit me in the right way. i can tell you a song i'm listening to on repeat right now is The Wind Weeps Eleanor by American Murder Song.

last movie you watched?  Hagazussa: A Heathen's Curse, but I hope to go see Dune 2 this week.

last show you watched?  just started Shōgun and it's wonderful.

last song you listened to?  Dwamn by Tech N9ne 🫣 

favorite food?  fry bread! or a step further: navajo tacos.

favorite season?  winter

do you have a tumblr best friend? um i think i'm close to a few people on here, but the only one i know i can tag for sure is @vuulpecula starbuck has put up with my nonsense on here for years and somehow still talks to me lmfao we have the greatest and the worst ships and honestly i am always always always excited to write with her❤️❤️❤️

alias / name:  Rabbit / Rory, or Ro for short

pronouns: he / him

birthday: 15 December

zodiac sign:  Sagittarius

height:   5'7"

hobbies:  Scale miniature + Gunpla, fibrecraft - really I just have nervous hands and need to be making something or else I start breaking something. I also collect curios and oddities - with a preference for glass and antique medical equipment. I have a fairly big prosthetic eye collection. 👁

favorite color: all of them, preferably all together

favorite book: I reread Watership Down every year, it's my comfort story and I fall in love with it all over again even though I looked at it exhaustively during my thesis. Otherwise I'm mostly a biography and nonfiction boy - Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach is fun if you like that sort of thing.

last song:   ' Ask for Nothing ' - Lemon Demon on my Cora Playlist :x

last film / show:   This series where an Anthropologist takes apart a Netflix series

recent reads:  The Radium Girls by Kate Moore, All Bleeding Stops: Life and Death in the Trauma Unit by Stephen M. Cohn, MD

inspiration:  Beyond the source material, lots of random things rattling around in my day to day remind me of Cora and feed into my writing: trauma visible and invisible, how an overwhelming sense of guilt shapes a person, silence as a protective behaviour, nifty spycraft things, loving others with your whole heart, how an anxious dog looks like an aggressive dog

story behind url: Cora's an overgrown bird a character that is so deeply loved by those whose lives he affected, even though he never lived to know the effects his actions had. Likewise, coming back to write him after even a short break feels like the warmest, safest hug.

fun fact about me: Not working in academia any more, but some of my work is floating around out there published in really niche books.

rec list part 2! (last updated: 10/22/23)

this time it's one shots! here's the link to the multi chapter rec list

and again, if you know the tumblr url of anyone i missed, let me know!

One shots

awake to eyes like your eyes (to hands that fit in your hands)

Leo has a tough time after a nightmare, but Raph will always be there for him.

starting off with a good one! god i care them so much. raph and leo hours post movie it is EVERYTHING i needed

Chiquitita (Or, The Complicated Art Of Forgiving Yourself)

Future Leo and Leo have a conversation about repentance.

oooohhhh my god this is like. so satisfying somehow. self forgiveness is a bitch but sometimes you look at the version of you who fucked everything up and realize just how small he is and it's. yeah. yeah

entangled, inseparable (the dark and the light; the sun and the night)

The twins get cursed by a body-swap spell.

i mean. yeah. yeah. body swap is one of my all time fave things and this one is REAL good. they are So Twins my god the BULLYING. AND there's mind meld which is another big time fave of mine it Does Not get better than this

Fibonacci (me again)

Leo is six when he (and his brothers) finally get their birthdays.

yeah yeah another one of my own fics But Anyway more twin hours (surprising absolutely no one) it's literally just fluff

I bend the definition of faith (@siliconforbrains)

In which Michelangelo refuses to leave his brother to die, and Leonardo somehow ends up in the body of his 16-year-old self. This changes everything and nothing at the same time.

god. god. this fic is incredible. wailing on the floor. super interesting take on the 'future leo goes back in time' idea too tbh

in my hour of weakness, you were there to see my courage fail (@stardustcoral)

Leo has a certified Bad Time™. His brothers help.

mostly focused on leo and raph but the others are there too at the end and Good God my heart. i can't explain why it's just so like . cathartic?? augh. legit made me cry which, let me tell you, does Not happen that often with fics

the carol that you sing (right within your heart) (@stardustcoral)

Donnie gives Leo quite the shocking gift: emotional vulnerability! Oh, and a battle-shell. Amongst other things.

disaster twins fluff my BELOVED. absolutely adorable post movie christmas fic i love them so much

The Kindness of Collision

One by one, in the timeline that ended the world, the Hamato family dies--and wakes up, somewhere kinder. One by one, in a timeline that saved the world, the Hamato family wakes up and remembers exactly how much they could have lost.

augh. UAGHH. i am SUCH a sucker for 'present turtles get memories from future turtles' in ANY form good god. them. the them

The 'KYS' Incident

Raph doesn't know how to use acronyms. This causes issues.

SORRY THIS ONE IS JUST. SO FUNNY. literally just what it says on the tin. if you know you know

Though the Truth May Vary (@kattythingz)

April is a big sister first and foremost, and copes with the End of the World™ accordingly. Leo is a little brother two-point-five-fourths of sometimes, and copes with his sister's coping accordingly.

THE RARE AND ELUSIVE APRIL + LEO DUO MY BELOVED... this bitch has it all - sibling bonding! post movie healing! april kicking ass and taking names! leo being his usual incredibly stubborn self until he gets through to her about how amazing she is! magical girl transformation! other spoilery things! what more could you want?

Trinkets

“Thanks, Donnie!” He said brightly, his other brothers chiming in with their own thanks after him. Donnie flapped his hands and giggled, making Leo clutch his new present tighter. Donnie did love them, and this was the proof.

YESSSS DONNIE GIFT GIVING LOVE LANGUAGE REAL!!! super sweet and in character i love it so much

Twins Don't Need to Have Logic

Leo stopped calling them 'twins' years ago and thought Donnie would've been grateful for that... Little does he know how his brother actually feels.

look i know i KNOW a lot of these are disaster twins focused but i'm just. so soft for them. anyway donnie secretly referring to leo as his twin my beloved

Worth it for the Laughter

Leo is absolutely certain that Donnie stole his teeth to use for science. Or maybe that's just the post-surgery painkillers talking.

leo gets his wisdom teeth out and says absolutely nothing embarrassing or incriminating whatsoever i prommy <3

your fears are all true (@remedyturtles)

'Donnie bring me toast.' A long pause. Leo felt an impression of confusion, then comprehension. Donnie sent back, 'Did you seriously just mind meld with me to request breakfast in bed?'

this fic has EVERYTHING. disaster twins? check. mind melding? check. existential dread? check. i love it here

#talk tag #once again i am Not a professional reviewer or whatever LMAO can u tell #fic recs #not fic related #probably will Also update this later but

Whumpmas in July #1

Introduce yourself.

hi! i'm mill and i'm a whump writer. i've been writing since march of last year, and this is my second year participating in WIJ!

my writing masterlist is here! the main thing to check out is my main series, Kane & Jim, about a vampire whumper-turned-whumpee whose former victim takes care of him after he's tortured by vampire hunters.

i really like nonhuman whumpees (especially vampire whumpees). for this event, i will be devoting 5 of the writing prompts to my main series, and the others will apply to 5 whumpees of varied species: a borrower (tiny whump), a vampire unrelated to my main series, a fairy, an alien, and an immortal.

i also have a g/t (giant/tiny) sideblog @smallsday, where i blog about characters with size differences. there is a g/t event going on this july too, GT July, and while i won't be completing GT July like i will with WIJ, i'm going to combine a few prompts and some of my WIJ pieces will also function as GTJ entries. yay for tiny whump!

here are my answers to the WIJ introduction questions! i filled these out last year too, but some of them have changed:

❤️ Name: mill

💛 Gender: bigender (man/woman), though i'm leaning more masculine as of late

💙 Favorite season: fall

❤️ Average amount of sleep: LOL (barely better than when i gave this answer last year)

💛 Dream job: retiree so i can focus on writing as a hobby. however, my current job of teaching kids to read is also very fun :)

💙 Blog established: february 2022

❤️ Reason for URL: had dinner at friday’s that night and based it on their slogan "gere, it's always friday." my blog title used to be "here, it's always whumpsday."

💛 Fave Whump Tropes: immortal whumpees, nonhuman whumpees (especially vampires or demons), whumper turned whumpee, tiny whump, deprivation of basic needs (food, water, sleep, touch, air. especially air), claustrophobia, gore, captivity, recovery / comfort / sweet sweet caretaking

💙 Projects you’re working on: mainly just my main series, Kane & Jim! tried adding other stuff before and stretched myself too thin, so just that for now, plus some one-shots.

❤️ Favorite color: red

💛 Anything else you’d like to add: this is my favorite seasonal whump event, bar none. i love the little activities and how the writing prompts leave breathing room by being spread out.
