Sasori hesitates, staying silent as he casts one last look toward Deidara, backlit by rays of gold and new, unbroken sunshine, haloed beneath pink-flushed clouds and snow-tipped alps, and Sasori has that feeling again of wanting to take a photo, to capture this for posterity, immortalized beauty given life for longer than they will ever have.

-from chapter 2 of tell me about eternity (just one more time) Read it here!

Red Wine and Honey

He lets Romano grab at him, lets work-hardened fingers grip his shoulders as he takes Romano apart, as Spain makes love to him the way he would every morning if they were able, peaceful and languorous and heady like wine beneath the sun of Spanish summers, like Nero d'Avola sipped off the coast of sparkling Sicilian beaches. Spain wakes Romano in the best way he knows how. Oneshot, Spamano.

Beneath the Yellow Tiles

Romano is touch-starved, and Spain is lonely. Somehow, they meet in the middle. Oneshot, Spamano.

Additional Tags: Touch-Starved, Depression, Intimacy, Mutual Adoration, Angst with a happy ending, if this can be called angst?, it's more yearning than anything else but just to be on the safer side, the btt and vene are very minor players, spain’s house is a character in and of itself, everyone always gives romano depression, which is fine!, but im here to torture that green-eyed man, no one can have a fat ass AND be mentally stable, to me that man has a guilt complex wider than the equator, as he should!!!, it should also be noted that at one point i liken a blowjob to a baptism, so do with that what you will

i will stop romanticizing geography when it stops being romantic. until that day, catch my ass waxing poetic about coastlines and constellations and two fucked up mediterraneans being gay for each other.

(also this may be the work im most proud of in terms of writing style. so. go me! :D)

Ship of Theseus

Is a body still a body if it has been hand-carved, crafted by the wearer and replaced piece by piece, limb by limb, to house a soul too heavy to bear the burden of flesh? Who does a body belong to if the thing inhabiting it isn’t breathing, isn’t feeling, sentient only by technicality? Dead and alive are not the only two ways to be.  Oneshot, Sasori-centric.

the end of sasori week!! this is for the prompt of beauty/death, and ofc i had to end this week with mental spiraling, unhealthy coping mechanisms, and body horror. its what sasori would have wanted.

on a happier note, a quick thanks to those who have enjoyed what i posted and who left comments and kudos and wonderful messages. you are all so incredibly sweet, and i had so much fun this week. ♥️

you'll do it better, show me how

Lovino almost blames himself for this—he should have known his microscopic iota of luck had run out a long time ago, if it ever existed at all, and at this point the universe exists to mock him personally, so, really, he should have known this was coming. But still, Matthew doesn’t need to look so smug.  (or, alternatively, the one where Lovino is a TA and Antonio is determined to ruin his life) oneshot, spamano, prucan, so background it's not even worth tagging fruk.

tell me about eternity (just one more time) chapter two: noise | chapter one

Sasori keeps his memories close, a life of snapshots memorialized in film, and Deidara has never had a home. (or, sasori is a photographer, deidara is a street artist, and the world is just big enough for the both of them.) Multichapter, Sasodei.

Words: 6,568, Chapters: 2/8, Language: English

Sasori week day six! This primarily fits the prompt of criminals, but family fits in there, as well. See you tomorrow for the last day :)

Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, Photographer!Sasori, Streetartist!Deidara, Fluff, Fluff and Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Set primarily in Italy/EU, Constant bickering about art, I wouldn’t call this a slowburn since I don’t think it will be long enough, But it’s like a moderate-walk burn, A last-person-to-finish-the-mile-in-school burn (for my american readers), Essentially if yearning could be a fic this would be it, Contrary to the last few fics I posted this is not sad, I almost forgot I could write things that aren’t angsty and mean so three cheers for that, sasoriweek, sasoriweek2023

Sasori week day one! This is mostly meant to fit the prompt of preservation, but the entire thing can ultimately fit both preservation and fear.

Photographer!Sasori has been plaguing me endlessly for weeks now, and he demands to be heard, so here is chapter one of Sasori digging his creepy little puppet fingers into my brain and not letting go.

"There is a dinosaur outside my window. I'm watching it as I write this."

The early morning was a gentle thing, breakable in its serenity, soft in its newness, and Sasori knew that wherever he sat, wherever he was, others have sat before him, giants on a scale he would never know, and they looked at the same dawn he did, felt the rays of the same sun, and together they walked the same earth. Oneshot, Sasori-centric.

Sasori week day two for the prompts of truth/trapped. Don't ask me why I chose dinosaurs of all things. I read one (1) book on dinosaurs and suddenly I'm putting my blorbos in situations about it.

the lights we saw in each other were saying the same thing

an artist will create no matter the medium, style, or palette. an artist will create because it is all they know, because it is all they have. an artist will create because there is no other choice. deidara has spent his entire life seeing only in shades of gray. (or, that one soulmate!au where you only see color when you meet your soulmate.) oneshot, sasodei.

Repetition

Sasori will have memory enough for both of them, will remember how sands run red, will know the cracks and crevices that bleed beneath his feet. He will remember the time, will count the days and nights as they tip into each other, inseparable in the way Sasori is with immortality, and he will remember the landscape as it was.
