17 for the ask game please!
ps. can't wait for Tae's christmas fic!
Thank you! As for Tae's fic, I had to postpone it for now as previously mentioned, but I might share a short teaser and taglist to show you guys what to expect :')
17. fics you'll continue next year
Oh. Oh, God. Here we go...I'm so excited to answer this because I have sooooooo many things planned lol *rolls sleeves*
For starters, my main focus next year will be on The Bedroom Hymns, as the project itself wasn't originally planned to be this long *sobs* and I will need to finish it soon so the other writers in the collab can continue writing their parts asap.
For other fics that I will continue and hopefully complete are mostly the ones that I've neglected for so long *sobs again*
Since I've managed to (finally!) finish one of my oldest and longest series this year, which is In Motion, I can finally start focusing on the series that have been put into hiatus for so long and nearly reaching their final chapters, including:
About Time
Flux
28 Days
Blood Moon Rising
Chance Encounter
In short, you'll be seeing me releasing more chaptered series next year with the hope that I can finish them all so maybe I can start working on bigger things. I hope you'll be excited for this!
talk to me: fanfic end of the year asks

WIP Folder Game
RULES: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! and then tag as many people as you have WIPs.
Thanks for the tag, @nonsensicalsoliloquy!
So I distinguish between “active” WIPs and “probably abandoned” WIPs, where the first are ones that I may not be working on right now, but I still think there’s a good chance I’ll get around to them eventually. The second are really exactly what they sound like - maybe I’ll pick them up again at some point, but for the moment I’ve kinda accepted they probably won’t get done
So for the sake of this list, I’m using only the names of the “active” ones. If anyone is curious about the “probably abandoned” list, let me know and I’ll post those too, there’s just a lot more in there lmao as my active list is pretty short right now and I have stuff that dates back to 2016 in the other list lmao. There are some banger ideas there, though, if I do say so myself, so let me know if y’all want to see them
Star wars:
Bad Things
Braids
Renben 7
~*~*~
Plague doctor:
Lera + Serovolk
Lera meets the Rag
Soft Bottom Oleg
Not sure who to tag, so just gonna pick some people I know who write and I think like these, but no pressure to do this if you don’t want to! @kylosbreedingkink @aptenodykes @eldritchmochi @iwishtocountthestars @bunny--manders @bostarsky

I am drowning in half-planned fic right now because I made the mistake of rewatching Veronica Mars (and seeing the new season) and then there was very very little of the stuff I wanted to make me feel better, so I am now writing it myself all at once??? (Yes, juggling like six AUs at once is a bad idea, no I did not do it on purpose.) And I know better than to post unfinished stuff, so give me some feedback, guys:
What are people interested in?
(Relevant information: I am here for Weevil, and I am decidedly not here for Logan. Also, these are mostly not the actual titles, I just don’t have one yet.)
Finish the short ones first!
*The long, sad, bittersweet Weevil/Jade reunion, where she runs into trouble post S4 and has no one else to call. (Pros: As a (long) oneshot, will probably be finished in the next millennium! I’ve also not only started it but made some decent progress. Has a likely sequel which is… maaaybe less sad. Kind of. Jade POV, which is, uh, scarce. Cons: Sequel is less well-planned-out and kind of self-indulgent, this is a ship that like two people are on. Also it’s sad.)
*Five Children Veronica Mars Never Had (Pros: Short enough it might get finished before the heat-death of the universe! I’ve also already started it. Takes a bit of a turn from the typical children-as-a-ship-exploration/validation these things often have (most of these children are not biologically Veronica’s). Novel canon is relevant! Some very solid V/W friendship in at least one. Cons: Tremendously, horrifically depressing; I literally just keep killing people to make the premise work. Very little shipping.)
*The Jade/Eli Chronicles (Pros: Related oneshots so, again, will probably be finished in a semi-reasonable time. Fluffy if you block S4 from your memory. Jade gets, like, lines. Cons: Not a ton of substance, only happy if you block S4 from your memory, this is a ship that two people are on.)
*Five (Or Some Number) Worlds Veronica Didn’t Grow Up In (Pros: Fun crossovers/fusions! All the chapters will be more standalone, so I might even post it serially. A BtVS where Veronica isn’t the Slayer (Lilly was). Animorphs!!! Cons: Fusions are automatically disinteresting if you don’t know the other canon. Some of them are not super well-developed yet. Also, how do you make Veronica Mars more upsetting? Cross it with Animorphs!)
I want longfic, because the literal problem is not enough V/W longfic!
*Veronica Mars, Intrepid Reporter
A Lilly lives AU where canon splits whenever Lilly (doesn’t) begin her affair with Aaron. Veronica copes with Duncan’s sudden cold shoulder by becoming an investigative high school journalist.
Pros: This is my first-concieved AU, and maybe the project I’m most proud of? (Pending completion.) Heavy focus on the death of Marisol Reyes. Features a not-irredeemably-awful high school experience for Veronica. Lilly is still flawed as per canon but she’s not evil and she loves her brother and her friends. Eventual (very eventual) Veronica/Weevil. Meg lives. Lots of Keith and Veronica’s relationship. Probably the most optimistic of all my AUs.
Cons: Spans a long time and will probably be gigantic (these things always get bigger once I’m writing them), so will take approximately forever to finish. Planned out to some extent but not started yet. Somewhat critical take on Logan (I almost put that in the ‘pros’ column but I know how the fandom is about him).
*The Lawsuit Story
An AU where Weevil doesn’t settle as soon as in canon (or maybe Lamb just panics quicker), and an attempted attack on him kills Jade instead.
Pros: Hello to the novel canon! This is probably my favourite of all the universes I’m messing around with. The Weevil/Veronica friendship is so strong with this one that I am legitimately conflicted over whether to actually even have them get together. Valentina has an extremely strong presence and I love her. It's pretty charitable to Logan, considering I wrote it. Carmen makes a few appearances. Celeste Kane goes down.
Cons: This was originally just part of ‘Five Children…’ so the long version probably won’t be written until that’s finished. May or may not contain Weevil/Veronica, but if it does, it is a loooong wait. Does contain LoVe.
*High School Revenge Story
Another Lilly lives AU, where Lilly definitely IS having an affair with Aaron. And also Weevil, but not anymore. And also, Veronica’s (post-Troy) boyfriend. Anyway, Veronica finds out about the last point and decides to get revenge/prove she’s not some virginal innocent sidekick by hooking up with Lilly’s sidepiece, who she imagines wants to piss Lilly off as much as she does.
Pros: Not only is it Veronica/Weevil, but Veronica/Weevil is, like, eighty percent of the plot. There’s definitely smut (plot- and character-advancing, even!). There’s an unexpectedly touching strangers-with-benefits relationship even before the extremely unplanned pining. This one felt the most like the show when I was planning it out, especially with the nature and timing of the twists. Lilly is not evil, she’s just a teenager in over her head who doesn’t want to admit it and coping maladaptively.
Cons: I always feel weird touting porn as a selling point when I wrote it, because I have had zero sex in my entire life (although I am thirty, and I feel like life experience and general knowledgeableness about actual human anatomy count for something here). I have not started this one yet, although it’s more or less outlined. Logan also does not come off well (this is because he is a teenager having a Very Bad Time, but his actions are still not excusable). This was originally two different AUs before I realized they should probably be one (I cannot say what the other one was, because it’s a major spoiler), so there’s the possibility of disjointedness where they meet. Also, I’m not entirely sure I have the chops to pull this one off – there’s a lot of dark stuff going on under the surface (well, there’d have to be, for the plot to work, because otherwise it’s just very OOC), and it’s not the kind of thing that’s usually my forte, but I’m going to give it a shot anyway.
*Platonic Co-parents
AU where Veronica stays at Hearst. She and Weevil have a one-night stand in her third year and end up getting a child out of it.
Pros: It’s just a lot of fun! It’ll probably end up W/V but in the meantime they’ve got a solid, supportive friendship going on, to the aggravation of everyone either of them tries to date. (“What do you mean your daughter’s father is sleeping on your couch because the hot water broke in his apartment???”) I have a later scene planned out where they go to the high school reunion separately and deliberately show everyone the same picture of Mariana to see if anyone realizes it’s the same kid, which sums up the vibe pretty well. There is Keith+Weevil awkwardness and then probably some Keith+Weevil friendship later on. Lots of time given to Weevil’s family. Also, Veronica looks into Susan Knight’s suspicious drowning. I have also (technically) started it.
Cons: Listen, I know it’s a reach for Veronica to be willing to have a child at this point in her life, but I’ve done my best to justify it and I think I did okay. Plus, you know, the entire premise is a junk food trope – it’s not evil, but it’s trite. I love it anyway.
No, I want something else/FINISH YOUR OTHER STUFF
*[Earth’s Children] The story where an adult Durc and Brun’s former clan meet the post-Ayla Lion Camp!
Pros: Ambitious dual narrative I think I’m pulling off well (time divergent; one strand moving forward from the first encounter, one from Ayla’s departure), lots of screentime for supporting characters with wasted potential (Vorn, Frebec, Ura, Brac, not to mention Durc), several chapters already written.
Cons: Extremely ambitious so it will take me forever to finish, there’s basically no one in this fandom.
*[Earth’s Children] The Echozar/Joplaya fic
Pros: Actually develops their friendship into something that makes sense, development of Echozar’s childhood and of the Lanzadonii, I’ve got a rough outline and a few pages written.
Cons: Definitely chaptered so it will take some time, there are even less people in this part of the fandom.
*[The Old Guard] Give An Inch Fall A Mile (Joe and Nicky friendship-with-benefits their way into being Joe and Nicky)
Pros: Lots of sex scenes (obviously) on which I have had positive feedback, several chapters written (probably half-finished), I'm very proud of the writing quality on this one, and I absolutely should be writing this first.
Cons: I have been stalled out on it for more than a year, it may not be finished before the new movie comes out and possibly makes it incompatible with canon.
*[Veronica Mars] The Firebird AU… crossover… fusion… thing
Post-S4, Veronica travels through alternate universes and learns that she needs to get her shit together and apologize to Weevil.
Pros: Um, the Firebird Trilogy is cool but is not required knowledge for entry, alternate universes are neat, and even though this idea is probably dumb I can’t stop thinking about it. It would probably even technically comply with canon.
Cons: Half of the universes I have up my sleeve are from the AUs mentioned above, so it probably won’t get written (if it does) until they’re finished in like ten to twenty years. The actual plot is thin; I mostly have a bunch of scenes. There is a decent chance this idea is self-gratifying and pointless, but I also just cannot stop thinking about it.
*[Veronica Mars] Zombie Apocalypse
Post-S4 zombie apocalypse lands Veronica and Keith on a stolen yacht with a bunch of Weevil’s gang, Jade and her new boyfriend, and this one other guy.
Pros: There’s a lot of compelling (I think) personal drama, which is largely not rooted in anyone being an asshole (except Veronica, but that’s canon and I can’t do anything about it except try to fix it with zombies). Weevil finds out his kid is trans and does his best to speed-run the acceptance ladder despite his personal doubts because he’s extremely concerned about being killed by zombies (and thinks he's dying for a minute) and knows this is his only chance to make them feel supported. Eventual W/V, probably.
Cons: I do not know where I’m going with this. Author is not trans herself and might fuck up.
*[Veronica Mars] The Babysitter Effect
Valentina’s babysitter is still in the truck when Weevil stops to help Celeste, and she witnesses everything.
Pros: Teenage awkwardness, but in a fun way. Weevil gets the justice he fucking deserves. Beginning already written.
Cons: I have no plans at all for what happens after the inciting incident, and even if I did I don’t know how long this would be.
Soooo... if you're not in the Silm fandom you've probably never seen my writing before, but I'm happy to back it up with excerpts! Please ask me for excerpts.
If I keep up the volume of writing I've been doing I can probably get something substantial finished by the end of the year but I need input, please weigh in even if we're complete strangers and you found this post two years from now, best-case scenario I can link you to the completed fic. :)

omg concept y’know that one fic where himeru accidently starts dating mayoi to fuck with tatsumi (y'know the angsty one) except niki's also there as another interloper
i dont even know if hes after mayoi, himeru, tatsumi or all of their hands but hes going for it i think
niki: i know you dont even like mayoi. but I DO. you dont deserve him. you dont love him. but I DO.
himeru: you fantasize about gnawing on his bones
niki: that means i LIKE him. thats how you LOVE people
tatsumi: can both of you get the fuck out of this room
akjflandsflansdjfa the mayoip within me is pleased
mayoi dying over being tugged in three different directions
the mayoip within me also says that mayoi's inability to say no will land him in relationships with all of them simultainiously
EXCELLENT
AS IT SHOULD BE
:subaruagree: needs love
dhdjfbfall of them having to set different days and times for dates
they get together every wednesday for tea, timetable discussions, and flexing their various relationship status and how much better they are at dating mayoi with each other
GhadbjffnSNFKFNF
they always do this in mayois dorm. in front of him. while tomoya is not around.
tomoya casually reveals that hes seen mayoi fresh out the shower before (on accident, of course) and all three of them turn to stare him down murderously, having never seen mayoi even take off his gloves
oaknfkladsfklansdklfnalksdnfklansdkfadskjfaklsdnfknaskdfnkasdfknaksdnfkasdnfknasdkfnaksdfjknasdkfaldfkasdbfkvacsssfd
tomoya fears for his life, actually
he (briefly) wonders if nii-chan would let him crash at his dorm for the night to hide
niki: this is so UNFAIR i want to see mayoi chan with his hair down
tomoya (nervous): i-its not like youre missing much anyway
tatsumi: are you INSULTING mayoi?
tomoya: NO, I,
himeru: himeru has recorded this exchange and intends to release it on holdhands unless you swap dorms with himeru
tomoya (in tears): DEAL please dont hurt me
niki: AW CMON
tatsumi: THIS IS FOUL PLAY
eichi teshouin, the one the idols were told to go to abt dorm stuff: i feel a disturbance in the force
shbsjddKsndkfbSKDNKFJF
the only solution,
is to schedule who gets to be mayoi’s roommate each week,
there are now four(4) discussion topics for weekly tea
actually at this point they are semi-jokingly contemplating get registered as an official circle in es
HAHAHHSHDDKFBFJ
The Mayoi Ayase Boyfriend Circle (tm)
mab circle for short
mayoi love is strong tonight ♡
