MORE: Eggza Edition

Starting with two I made in previous sets:

When left to his own devices & off-duty as dad + not needed by any of the islanders for something serious, he let's loose. No more wise bad bitch crow man who's palpably emotionally damaged yet won't admit it. He's off the shits. You've seen Eggza. That's him de-stressing by fully indulging his favorite things: preparing necessities for survival & being an absolute wildcard.

When he heard someone on the island made up a rumor that Eggza is legit because Phil taste-tested a cookie out of curiosity, he took that and RAN. Yeah. He's egg sometimes. Who's his parent you ask? Well that's a secret (it's Rose).

Remember how I said he commits to bits super hard? Yeah. Eggza is his second biggest bit after the 4th Wall existentialism but it's quickly surpassing it to his biggest one

Genuinely he enjoys his Eggza time. Everyone knows they'll get nothing but task help out of him more or less, so they more or less leave him alone unless it's to say hi or a chance encounter.

Everyone finds him speaking with signs funny and endearing. Except Tubbo. But that's understandable, dyslexia go brr. Even though the fool sometimes forgets he can tts the signs. It's fine, he's most likely to derail Eggza's cookie grinding so it's better if Tubbo stays away doing Tubbo things

He's torn between the kids witnessing Eggza & never witnessing Eggza. He can't tell what's funnier or if he'd be embarrassed. They've heard stories from other eggs though

He has no interest in making himself Look like an egg. The sign usage is all he needs. And its funnier when you approach your grown ass man best friend Philza Minecraft only for him to look as wild as he did during Purgatory but without the Looks Like He's Dying Slowly part & refuse to talk to you verbally. The "what the fuck is happening here" is the best part of Eggza, if he starts LOOKING like an egg everyone will understand what's going on and that's lame

He bounces off everyone's energy. The more unhinged they are, the more unhinged he is. Unless he's harassing the baker. Then he fuels his own fuckery

The funny thing is he makes sure everyone thinks he's constantly this wild gremlin that only knows one thing: Grind. But really if no one's around while he's grinding, he's actually just straight up vibing. Got headphones in, blasting his jams, doin his work. In his lane, unbothered, flourishing.

I would sell my soul to see Eggza beat the ever-loving shit out of Purgatory workers it'd be so fucking funny holy shit

One of his favorite parts of going Eggza Mode is amusing his friends with the way he's just a nonverbal weirdo. Especially when he answers something they say by just dancing

If He's An Extra Silly Gremlin They'll Give Him Avocado Toast As A Treat

No one knows where he shoos his crows off to when he's Eggza. Or if it's some unspoken "ok time to scatter" rule as soon as he puts the gas mask on by the bakery. But they disperse and for a while, the other islanders can't shake the feeling of Phil seeming strangely bare for some reason. It's bc the murder is away

Tbh I bet even without the Hardcore dreams, he'd sleep a long time with how hard he works as Eggza

"Hard work," I say, as if most of the time Phil isn't just making mobs insatiable amounts of horny so everyone can give the baker what they're asking for (the awareness of this is half of why he's so unhinged as Eggza, it's too absurd & funny to him)

Calling back to another prev non-Eggza hc I made, he has less of a filter when he's not parenting or in peril. He has said some absolutely wild out of pocket shit on signs

If given the right kind of motivation, an islander could probably get Eggza to go feral and kill something or someone. Fit tosses him a stack of whatever arbitrary item Phil might find enticing enough atm & Phil is suddenly on a spree like he was with those bunnies that one time

good mooooorning the capitals are inexplicably in a wild card spot!! sending in j, u, & y for the ask meme hehe

good morning my friend!! they sure are!! that's the power of love baby!!!!! 💕💖✨🙏🦅

j. What’s your favorite fanfic trope?  Have you written it?

ohhhh i SURE have. futurefic is my favorite thing. just, everything about it — the mass of feelings that your characters thought they left in the past rearing up again! getting to slowly unravel whatever backstory you've concocted for your readers! all the complicated feelings that come with having grown up and built a life with imperfect pieces even when it was the best you could do at the time! also i love futurefic because it is almost always also second chance romance and i love second chances so much.

u. Is there a pairing you would like to write, but haven’t tried yet.

yes! so many!! i unfortunately only ever end up writing like 1/20th of the pairings i'm into because i am a SLOW writer but, i would love to get my grubby little fingers into whatever is going on in vancouver — probably elias/brock or elias/quinn. i feel like i would like to try my hand one day at connor/leon but i need to be gripped by the EXACT right scenario u know? i don't know if writing prompt fills on tumblr dot com counts as trying it but if it doesn't then i am absolutely adding eldest son disaster pairing matthew/quinn to this list. also i don't know if i want ME to write this but i do want a nice long tender unexpected feelings leon/bedsy fic to exist in the world because sometimes we all need a little problematic age gap in our lives. i feel like i have more but i am totally blanking. oh — gibby/trevor. i do want john to destroy that twink, preferably while he's deep in his jamie feelings. i want it to be MESSY.

y. What are your thoughts on your personal satisfaction with something you’ve written vs. the popularity of your stories?  Do you tend to be most satisfied with your most popular stories?  

this is pretty complicated tbh! like, i was NOT in a good headspace with haw when i posted it (i def should have done another editing pass but i was like fuck it i'm done lmao) but other people's love for it really and truly helped me get out of that headspace and remember why i loved the story and characters so much! so the popularity of the fic was a really lovely thing for me there. but also there's like, i wrote a band of brothers fic a couple years ago that's obviously never going to be super popular because it's for a tv show from 2001 but also i think that it's the best written thing on my ao3 page. by far the fic i'm the MOST satisfied with even though it only got a moderate amount of love due to the smaller fandom! then in the middle there's something like tnno, which a lot of people love but i was satisfied with it regardless because the two pals whose feelings about it mattered most to me also loved it. so i think this equation changes depending on my personal relationship to each fic!

The Lament Of BingLiu (Demonic Edition)

Summary: Demons really think Lord Luo should give Liu Qingge a chance. Bingqiu was kinda cringe.

Rating: T

Warnings: Mentions of violence and torture. This is mostly crack but it’s from the POV of demons, soooo....

Notes: This idea is based on a post by @yunmeng-jiang​ which was very, very funny so I wrote a short fic inspired by it. I guess it reads as anti-bingqiu?? I swear I love them, I just think it’s funny that in-universe others sure don’t.

***Alternate Ao3 Link*** Commission? Donate?

It was a huge relief when Lord Luo stole that corpse. But who would have thought it would unravel into a soap opera, the lengths of which demonkind would be endlessly enthralled and chomping at the bit as they bore witness to such…such shamelessly fruitless attempts of courtship?!

To some, it made sense. Lord Luo was undoubtedly powerful. Despite the undeniable stink of human, his gaze had the beauty of the Endless Abyss. Meaning, endlessly dark and terrifying, exuding such vicious demonic qi that writhed and beckoned like many a drowning soul looking to drag another down. His commanding presence and chilly stoicism drove many demonesses wild with the desire to attempt tearing him to shreds. That Mobei-Jun became his second-in-command was even more delightfully terrifying and captivating! And Lord Luo was exceedingly disinterested in any flirtation thrown at him, no matter how seductive the body or sensual the motions. The more untouchable, the more desirable!

But then others would point out one Peak Lord Shen Qingqiu, and the ones that didn’t groan would instead elect to ignore the name and existence entirely for the sake of their own sanity.

Yes, Lord Luo was undoubtedly powerful and his general demeanor was respectably detached.

But then there was Shen Qingqiu, the peak lord. The one blight on Lord Luo’s peerless record and reputation.

For, you see… There was no way around it. It was embarrassing. Lord Luo’s infatuation with Peak Lord Shen was so fucking embarrassing that many demons would rather die than be reminded of it.

There was some hope when rumors spread of Lord Luo’s failed assault attempt in the past, in which Shen Qingqiu cruelly threw him into the abyss. That, surely, maybe, Lord Luo was planning a delectably complex (if not convoluted) revenge against his old master, and hopefully, this would result in imprisonment and public humiliation via ravishing where Lord Luo could thoroughly assert his sexual dominance. Maybe demonkind would even be treated to a show of Peak Lord Shen being slowly de-limbed and bled out like a pig for hours if not days on end!

But. No. Demonkind got nothing of the sort.

At the same time that Lord Luo conquered lands and seized control across the realm, he also rose in the ranks of Huan Hua Palace as a ‘respected’ cultivator. This was great! Like a true parasite, Lord Luo infected the cultivation world and soon would have both humans and demons under his thumb. It would also serve as wonderful revenge against the master who rejected him for his demonic nature!

Until one praised Lord Luo for such diabolical thinking and would receive a chilling glare in return. More chilling was the realization that Lord Luo wasn’t doing this for revenge but to regain his master’s favor. To impress him.

Which…was pathetic?! So fucking pathetic, holy shit?! Any respectable demon would weep tears of blood if not throw up their innards on the spot! It meant that on the off chance this stupid fucking plan ever fucking worked then Lord Luo would happily give up any ambitions of destroying the cultivation world, and demons might just end up subjugated into getting along with humans or some other crap! No fucking thanks?!

Demons had to pray that their Saintly Ruler would get rejected again but harder, and that…was just so goddamn embarrassing. Many just wanted to die to escape the embarrassment!

So! It was! Just! A huge relief for so many reasons when Shen Qingqiu died! More so when Lord Luo stole his corpse! Not only did it crumble all possibility of a forced truce with the cultivation world, but like, stealing someone’s corpse?! Super hardcore and actually romantic! Sure, it was a little pitiful, but in a way that demons were culturally more understanding of, especially when it got out that Lord Luo was sleeping with it. Even better, this caused conflict with the cultivation world. Peace was never going to be an option, and it was all thanks to Peak Lord Shen dying! Truly, demonkind was grateful for his idiotic and pointless sacrifice!

Sure, Lord Luo was now even colder and far more erratic and cruel, but that was just how they liked him! This was a win for all of demonkind!

But…then the situation became a little peculiar.

Lord Luo was driven into insanity seeking a way to revive Shen Qingqiu. That was fine. The other peak lords wanted Shen Qingqiu’s corpse back in order to perform some stupid-ass funeral rites. That was understandable. Peak Lord Liu Qingge, in particular, was overzealous in challenging Lord Luo for the corpse.

The first ten times were entertaining and even cute. Liu Qingge was as stubborn as he was bloodthirsty, and Lord Luo countered and rebuked him with ease. Liu Qingge would make somewhat of a mess and then be beaten into submission, and then…

Lord Luo…would have him sent safely back to his peak rather than killed? Okay, one could see how that act of mercy was humiliating. So, that could be rationalized. Kind of.

Except then it kept happening. Day in, day out. Week after week. Month after month. Year after year.

Obviously, there would be whispers. Wasn’t Liu Qingge too overzealous? Too eager to fight? Too stubborn and yet reliable in his challenges? It was almost like…like…like…

Like Liu Qingge seriously had the hots for Lord Luo, right?! Oh sure, everyone knew that Liu Qingge was the bloodhound of Cang Qiong Mountain, the one always the first on the battlefield. But no reasonable person would go this far for a stupid fucking corpse. Perhaps Liu Qingge would do this for any of his fellow peak lords?

Except as the fights continued, demons began to doubt it was that simple.

Not to mention that Lord Luo continued to spare Liu Qingge’s life and continued to have him safely returned to his peak. Every single time. Every week. Of every month. Of every year.

There was no way around it.

This was a courtship.

Dutifully, devotedly, Liu Qingge would always come to duel Lord Luo. They would clash and exchange passionate blows. Liu Qingge would recklessly throw himself at Lord Luo until his body became unable to keep up with his virile spirit. Then, after he collapsed, Lord Luo would tenderly gather him up and have him oh so carefully sent off to safety.

A courtship. One that Lord Luo was not outright rejecting like all the others.

Sure, Lord Luo ending up with a different peak lord probably wouldn’t have great political results, but with how much of a brute he was, surely Liu Qingge could be persuaded down the demonic path? After all, he liked Lord Luo so much! Thus, a kind of tentative hope formed in demonkind. One where Lord Luo tossed that dumb corpse aside and took up Liu Qingge on his courtship.

It felt like a bit of a long shot, but when faced with such an onslaught of passion, demonesses couldn’t help but throw in their support for Liu Qingge’s efforts! No matter how fruitless it seemed, Liu Qingge had demonkind cheering him on! Surely someday Lord Luo would realize that they had something special!

Fucking! SURELY!

After all, it wasn’t like Shen Qingqiu could ever come back. That idiot was deader than dead. Like, super dead. The dead don’t come back to life.

That… That would be ridiculous…

–

Another day. Another fight. Another crushing defeat.

Luo Binghe sighed, waving his hand as he always did to signify that it was time to take Liu Qingge home. Mobei-Jun, lord of the northern desert and glorified xianxia-styled taxi service, plucked the peak lord off the shattered floor as he always did. With a soft sigh in sympathy to yet another one of Liu Qingge’s failed attempts at winning his lord’s heart, Mobei-Jun teleported them away.

Lord Luo just returned to his quarters where the stupid corpse and a whole bunch of paperwork awaited. Sha Hualing grumbled, knowing that he was likely going to have her deliver any completed documents soon. It was another mundane day for Lord Luo and his lackeys. The maids would clean up, comparing this previous destruction to the last and gossiping about Liu Qingge’s unwavering affections. They would continue to internally wish him best of luck for his next visit.

And Luo Binghe, oblivious if not uncaring, would continue to wish for his shizun to return.

[penguin--person]

silly question but: does wolf alík look any different from a regular wolf? when she's fully transformed, is there anything that sets her apart, or does she just look like an average, straight up wolf?

ty for asking this actually!!! i think about this a bunch, like, what human traits alík keeps, if she can bark/howl, if a pack of wolves would accept her, etc !!! ill talk about this under cut bc its like . idk? im not sure if this is body horror ? like its not just her being a wolf , its her being a messed up wolf .. uncanny wolf up ahead!! + some blood but not that much.. also warning ur getting a much longer answer than you were probs asking for lol

so i made a little image getting into details about her mutation just now, But i do first want to show off this art that my friend blazy (@/mothssmeat - go check his art out its super swag!!!) made of her for artfight last year !! He Gets Her he gets her wolfness he gets it

check out the speedpaint !! blazy's sooo niceys for drawing such an awesome alík art ... its So good . do you see how her nose is turning into one of a wolf? but so painfully ?? so slowly that its just !! how shes tearing up, blood around her ?? god . like God. oh my goddd . and her fur !! how its growing in patches around her body, starting like wild from her head, her eyebrows combined, just like !! its growing around like mold and i find that really cool .. hehe sorry just had to fangirl about this art ofher . i dont get the chance oftne . anyway. in a more professional manner: god sorry i cant yet . oh my fucking goddd . oh my GOD !!!! just look at that . what is that thing!!! dear god!!! ok. im normal now (lying ).

look at her hands and feet. human joints should not be like that, and wolf paws do not look like that. her claws.. god just look at them. blazys art explains alíks messed up wolf situation far better than i ever could. her ears, too, are just... god, look at them!! i have to move on from this art or ill just keep saying "look at it!!" but, well. Look at it.

some of my own alík wolf art:) the first one is when shes fully transformed, but also the first ever art i did of her like that, so take it with a grain of salt, but still take it. the second is her like... in her metamorphisis era - my internet connection is kinda MEAN and EVIL right now so i can't add them rn .. ill either rb with them later or edit them into the post. for now i just put links to the images :( sorry! plus the mentioned image from before. now Onto serious business

something that alík always has, no matter form, is her human eyes - but they're not really human! their colouration is one of a wolf's, and her eyesight is also almost as good as that of one. this is messed up when she's in full wolf mode, because its really.. just, weird. can you imagine looking at a dog with human eyes? a cat? a cow? no!! because its weird!!!! shes a FREAK!! (affectionate)

another weirdo thing about her face is her teeth. hes got canine teeth, no doubt about it, but i do think she has a bit more teeth than she should have.. maybe three more... ? two more? i think the amount of teeth is not equivalent with neither the amount humans should have nor the amount wolves should have.. like 38 or smth. this doesn't change in her transformation, but her jaw and gums do! it hurts! Ouchies! it also shifts her teeth around.. tbh i wouldnt be surprised if she lost a tooth or two transforming sometime.

as you may have noticed, alík has most of her fur on her head! this is because of hair! she has a big ol' tuft of fur on her head when she's in wolf mode and it makes her look silly. depending on how far along in transition they are, their fur is like... its in blotches over their body. a tuft here, a tuft there, no fur at all someplace else... her spine gets covered in fur first. bc its like !! hair to tail:)

her limbs are weird, too. her arms are more humanoid than her legs - my friend mikey @/monstertsunami shows this wonderfully in his art of alík and their gf idk who she is i heard shes some kind of loser? ermmm what the freak🔥

oh wow it let me add an image that time Awesome!!! anyway, you can see how her feet are pretty pawsome, huh?? shes got pawpads - is that what its called for wolves? i cant find info :( - and her joints are more.. like, look at how she's standing! her ankles! everybody say thank you mikey... !!! this stays in her wolf form, in a way

in the 'mentioned image' from before, you can see - ifyou can read my handwriting lol - that there's text around her feet/paws (peets...) that says 'human hands - fucked up paws'. in the linked image 'first one' , you can see her fucked up wolf hands more clearly! thats something that ive kept. i think she could grab you, even as a wolf. she keeps her thumbs. even if they dont work as well. this makes running as a wolf difficult for her, because her fingers are very much in the way !! herr back feet are more wolf-like in her wolf mode, even twisting her hips to work better !! opposite goes for her hands, though - her arms, like.. theyre not good for wolves ! her elbow is forced into a shitty position, her shoulders are.. bad...

and, as mentioned, her nose is fucked up. the smell of blood is an intimate friend of hers 💥it like.. god, her face goes through So Much. her skull gets absolutely , like ... goddd shes definetely broken bones transforming before... her nose is like, stretched out ? idk how to explain it .. its like if you used the 'free transform' tool on it

in short, id say theres a few main things that set alík apart from a regular wolf:

human eyes

human hands (sometimes covered in fur)

teeth

body isn't always fully covered in fur (its not easy for his body to bust out ten thousand fur strands all over his body, ya know? needs resources for that to happen)

movement (can't run as well, vocal cords arent probs in the best state after her neck fucking... look at it)

smell. she smells weird. oyou dont care about that but wolves would i think

then there's like, little basic anatomy stuff, like she will Never have the proper body of a wolf . maybe if she was like, for a year as a wolf, or two, or maybe even fine her body would be like Ok were wolf now . and her bones would settle ... but this is a question of years and time she does not have. her lifespan is also all kinds of fucked up. if she wasnt being experimented on evey day of her life ever, she'd probs live until her 40s? maybe late 40s if she had a HEALTHY LIFESTYLE filled with JOY and WHIMSY!!!! but i think now she'll die like, in her pafl au, i dont think she'll make it to 35.. sad! ouppy gone

also im working on an alík thing .. + the other two .. but also alík

CANINE GIRL coming to YOUR THEATRES in SOON!!!! hehe... im not making a song thats like too much for me. i can only make music that soundgs good to me idk how to make music that others would find tolerable .. my blessing .. teehee .. ill make alík like, a page, like the tptm girls have .. nina and nastya too:) nastyas mockup page is done.. but im not showing!!! you get a sneakpeak of the text tho . ty for the ask ❤️im surprised its letting me add images now . wifis been weird all day .. u also get to see a wip of her display sona

idk what her name would be . superlative girl ? unrivalled ? irrelevant ? victorious ? precious ? vote in the comments down below!!!Ninas will be some shit like. unknown girl. apathy girl. etc ... i havent gotten to alíks display sona yet but you KNOW shes ouppy!!!!

okieee‼️‼️‼️thats it . hope ur ok with me sharing the tptm stuff .... ❤️❤️💥💥💥ty again for the ask !!!

#ask #nonymous #alikcore #not gonna tag as nastyacore bc shes just at the end there . i dont awanna see this when scrolling through her tag #also go check out blazys and mikeys art i Mean it

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHORESS:

Welp, I started writing another Peter Steele FanFiction. Let me know down before in a comment if you want me to start posting it!

WORDS: 1210

I giggled as I kept an eye on little girl and the babies just having fun bopping all over the Chuck E Cheese. I couldn’t help but notice Christopher refusing to interact with any of the kids, instead moving away from his mom whenever she would try to talk to him.

“Hey, can I try?” I asked her, nudging her elbow. “Mom to mom, sometimes kids need someone else to talk to.”

“Yeah, would you please?”

I smiled at her before taking a seat next to Christopher, my mommy senses telling me that the pack of Ratajczyk children were safe and off having fun.

“Hihi, your name is Christopher, isn’t it?” I hummed gently, giving him the choice to interact with me or not.

“Yes.”

I smiled at his quiet meep, taking the chance to ask him about his book, a tattered edition of one of the Magic Treehouse books.

A quiet spark appeared in his eyes before he began to excitedly chatter my ear off about Shakespearean history and the Tudor dynasty.

“Have you ever been to a renaissance faire?” he asked me, wonder and amazement crossing over his face when I informed him that I worked as a player for two of the biggest faires on the east coast. “Wow, that’s so cool!”

“Do you know who Jaques Ze Whipper is?” I asked him, taking out my cell phone

“Are you ready, kids?” James yelled as he beat out a tempo using his trusty whips.

“AYE AYE CAPTAIN!”

“I can’t hear you!”

“AYE AYE CAPTAIN!”

“Oooooooooooooh…

Who draws on a mustache and acts like a clown?”

“Jaques Ze Whipper!”

“If you ever see him you won’t ever frown!”

“Jaques Ze Whipper!”

“Is French whipping something that you want to see?”

“Jaques Ze Whipper!”

“Then come on everyone and sing with me!”

“Jaques Ze Whipper!

Jaques Ze Whipper!

Jaques Ze Whipper!

Jaques Ze Whipper!

Jaques Ze Whipper!”

My friend since childhood finished up the song by miming playing a little horn.

“That’s Vanessa’s Papa Bear,” he pointed out.

“I know he is, but he also goes by Jaques Ze Whipper at faires and other such events,” I shrugged.

“Wowiee…” He broke off and peered around me, catching sight of Peter on his knee, allowing little girl access to kiss the sleeping triplet’s foreheads. “That’s Vanessa’s Papa Pete.”

“He is, yes,” I confirmed. “He is the best daddy in the world to the kids.” And he is also the best daddy to me, my mind told me, but I batted that away with a light blush tinging my befreckled cheeks.

“Can he be my daddy?” Christopher wondered. “My daddy went to heaven.”

My heart broke into clear pieces as his whole story was revealed to me. His father had died, leaving behind a wife and a son. I collected Cristopher as he leaned deeply into me, welcoming my arm to wrap around him.

“He had been living in the hospital, and one day, mommy told me that we wouldn’t be visiting him anymore,” he frowned, picking at his jeans.

Poor baby, I frowned, looking up as Christopher’s mother reapproached us, having nipped off to pay a visit to the bathroom to powder her nose.

“I haven’t seen Christopher this calm in a hot minute!” she said before picking up on the somber mood between the both of us. “He told you about his dad?” I could only nod- no child out there should lose a parent so suddenly. “What would you do?”

“Be honest- what else could I do?” I shrugged, reaching up to wipe at my leaking eyes. “When Baby Violet Marie passed, Peter had some of her ashes made into bracelets for the kids to wear. The both of us also welcome the kids to come to us and talk about their emotions, and we also heavily encourage them to follow their interests- dance and theater for Elizabeth, color guard and Chinese for Katie and the babies are coming into their own- Baby Tommy is keenly interested in ballet and cooking though.”

“Oh,” she hummed, and I realized that Christopher had fallen asleep leaning up against me, his itty bitty fingers entangled in my loose curls. “I follow you on Instagram, I really wish I was more like you, but I work as a nurse for mentally disabled kids, so at the end of the day when I get home from my job, I just want to crash in bed. But first, I have Christopher to take care of- homework, dinner, tucking him into bed…”

“Don’t you have any upcoming days off?” I asked her, my heart only cracking all the more at her head shake as a “No” answer.

“Not since before Henry died.” She rushed to explain herself. “It is sadly extremely expensive to live today, especially in New York. I am working to save for the both of us to move back to my hometown in Minnesota. My parents still live there and the schools are nice. Christopher will only prosper there.”

“Ah,” I hummed, understanding her reasoning. “May I offer you some advice?”

“Sure, go ahead,” she answered as Baby Tommy appeared in the doorway to the party room, worry written clear as day over his chubby face.

“Wait a little bit if you can before announcing that you’re moving due to your husband’s death,” I advised her, looking up as little girl began to race towards me. “Moving so soon after his passing might lead to him rebelling against you in more ways than you might like.”

“Mommy,” he wept. “A man pushed kicked liddle gurl and took Baby Noah!”

“What?” I gasped, looking up as Peter and Elizabeth herded the kids back over to me. “Oh no!”

[blinkaftermidnight]

i would love to hear more about some of the unfinished The Wilds fics

Buckle up. There's a lot of stuff dying in my hard drive. Maybe, when I get the time, I should try to finish some of it up/patch it up/post random snippets (if anyone would be interested?).

So here's the thing, I have my drive separated into two types of fics for The Wilds: there are fics I consider potentially still in play and fics I've scrapped altogether. Two different folders. I'll make you a list under the cut and tell you what I consider each to be. And I'll probably give too much commentary about each.

If you want to know more or get a snippet of any of them, please send follow up asks. I would love to share. Or I'd love to hear what, if I were to pick back up with writing, you'd want to read the most. No guarantees, but I'll think about it.

I posted the snippet for i'll be waiting on you forever from Fatin's POV in another ask. Not very far into that, but I also haven't moved it to the scrapped folder. I think my problem with that kind of fic is it doesn't feel fresh enough - it's hard to make it feel new when we already know where it's headed. I've done it before, but it's hard.

I started a second Star Wars AU that's unrelated to the first where Leah's a Jedi Padawan and Fatin is a senator - literally Anakin and Padme in Attack of the Clones. Didn't get very far but didn't scrap it.

I have one that I'm still hoping to finish that's placeholder titled "Leah loses her mind" rightfully or wrongfully, I don't know. It explores her season two on island hallucinations and how that affects her and the group. It's 6.5k and unfinished, but I'm planning to take a look at it and see what can be done.

There are so many post island fics that are just snippets and doing nothing on my drive. I kept trying to experiment with writing all of the season two POVs post island and that shit is hard. Probably a sign not to expand too far away from Leatin because apparently I can only care so much lmao. But I haven't bothered to scrap them.

There's one where I attempted to write Leachel but that shit was also hard apparently. Really I was trying to write all different pairings and didn't get very far. Not scrapped and I have considered trying again more than once.

I started a no experiment AU where it was just an actual plane crash. I have 5k of that and no memory of writing it. Not scrapped. Not sure if I'd ever finish that.

The season 3 fic outline I mentioned in another ask but didn't link because I was on mobile, so that's here if you missed it. Not scrapped, but unfortunately I think outlining it made me feel like I told the entire story even though I never wrote more than 2-3 chapters. That's the problem with outlining, but only sometimes, because I outlined the exes fic/we're falling apart still we hold together, and that was fine.

I started a road trip AU back in 2021. Wrote 7k. Outlined the entire thing and same problem as above. Got stuck. I think I was trying to force word counts on myself for each chapter and it wasn't working. Not scrapped but very unlikely I'll touch it.

I have one just called "waterfall 5" that has five moments spent at the waterfall, and I almost finished it. I think I still have some hope of finishing it, since it's a quick thing.

I've talked about it before, probably two/three years ago at this point jfc, but I don't remember what I've disclosed about this fic. It's the one I mentioned in another ask about it not feeling right, so I didn't put it out, and it's something like 50k words and had a massive plot hole that I had to try to fix, and I was going to do a whole rewrite and maybe put it out. This one haunts me. There's a chance I'll throw the entire draft out one day without editing or fixing any issues. Or maybe I'll take another stab at it, since it's all there. Truly, this one haunts me. For once, I had a perfect title and nothing to show for it. There's probably snippets of it in asks on my blog somewhere from back when The Wilds wasn't cancelled and I was insane about it.

I scrapped the Grey's Anatomy AU. Just gave up on it.

I wrote 239 words of something vaguely Dotin and scrapped that too.

I have a first draft of the fake dating AU i don't belong to you (but you're wrong) that I scrapped. I took it in an entirely different direction and scrapped 10k of this other thing. I think I salvaged some of it for the posted fic, but it started going the wrong way.

Also have a scrapped draft of the last chapter of the soulmate AU i said i wouldn't let you in. That first draft of that chapter was BAD.

I scrapped 14k of everyone else's perception of what was happening with Leatin on the island. Like Leatin through every other character's eyes, and I don't remember why it didn't work or what I didn't like about it.

I'm not gonna lie, some of this stuff I'm looking at...even I don't know what it is anymore.

I scrapped a document called "untitled" and this is literally all that's in it:

"She sees her on the first day of school, sitting with the kid that supposedly led the FBI to Gretchen. Leah smiles slightly as Fatin crosses the lawn, and the kid – Ian – turns to look where Leah’s looking, and Fatin just tilts her head in acknowledgment and keeps walking. There’s nothing more for her to do."

I don't know what that is.

There's STILL a lot more documents I haven't touched on because I haven't bothered to open them and find out what they are (and my placeholder titles don't tell me much all the time). But I feel like this is a good start lmao.

Sorry for writing a novel, but you did ask. If you want more, let me know and I will make time over the weekend to post some stuff.

#Anonymous #the wilds #leatin #my fic #sorry for the length but you asked lol #and i would love to share more #it might just take me some time to get it out there #i've missed talking about writing even if i haven't been doing a whole lot of writing recently #i hope that'll change

was tagged by @princess-of-purple-prose to list five songs i actually listen to and tag ten mutuals. WAOG A CHANCE TO TALK ABT MUSIC THANKS KAY SURELY I WILL BE SO SO FUCKING NORMAL ABT THIS (no caps: woag a chance to talk abt music thanks kay surely i will be so so fucking normal abt this)

Hell’s Comin’ With Me by Poor Man’s Poison. this is one of my songs ever tbh. the depressing slow start that sounds like its going to be a normal depressing country song, but suddenly ramps up in fury and pace into something almost joyful in its violence. as soon as i hear the sharp cords to prep “there is a hill at the bottom of the valley” i am full screaming the lyrics. “i paid the devil twice as much to keep your soul” mph. chefs kiss. delicious. also its about killing a corrupt priest which i hoot and holler and bang the table for

the jester by ratz. hi ratz if you have any reason to see this post for whatever reason though i cannot imagine why. i love ur music. esp this song. i vibrate slightly when it plays. vocals outta this world. anyway. the parallel between the lyrics “Oh, I know / It’s a dangerous game i play with my soul / I know / It’s a dangerous game / But my self preservation is tepid at best” and “He knows / It’s a dangerous game he plays with his soul / I know / It’s a dangerous game / My morality is shaky at best” is so !!!!!!!! for me

Santa Fe by Autoheart. “and when i saw you i should have kept on going but i couldnt move the gods of justice spoke and i got what i deserve and when you saw me your hand became an angry fist i agree with everything that’s coming my way but forgive me if you can” oooooooo BABY i love angst i love self recrimination i love the knowledge you fucked up so bad and you have no way to protest that you Don’t deserve the pain the other party might choose to inflict back on you. Punch (Special Edition) is one of my favorite albums ever genuinely banger after banger

Pray by The Amazing Devil. oh man i LOVE this band i dont think theres a single damn song by them i don’t like or even feel ambivalent about but Pray is one that makes me want to start sprinting through the streets screaming my heart out. i can’t even give you some favorite lyrics from it bc everything feeds into everything else it’s so visceral and evocative of a desperation and determination and frustration and the thrum of something trapped inside you desperate for freedom. madeleine hyland fucking ROCKED it so hard. ma’am i am so in love with you. please listen to this song fr

The Hand That Feeds by The Crane Wives. another song by one of my bands ever. it’s been consistently at or near the top of my spotify most played artists for years u should check them out. this is truly a song of all time, it makes me feel the need to break capitalism’s spine over my knee, throw its corpse on a bonfire, and dance around the flames. the narrator is soooooo fucking bitter and determined to keep their autonomy and soul in a society where money is impossible to live without and nearly impossible to get without being treated cruelly and dehumanized for. “no man should get more of my time than me, than me, i may never be a rich man but i can make sure that i am free. the rich man can never have me” literally songs to gnaw your arm off to

so that was music corner with jellyfish thanks for tagging me kay ily <33 uhh i’ll go ahead and tag @gnomebud @whale-blanket @angelslant @tjuvmon @freijan @ragefear @frogliftcertified and anyone else who might want to just say i tagged u and go wild <33

#jellyfish txt #tag game #agonizing to only choose five songs do you know much i love music?

permanence; bakugou katsuki x reader (exes to lovers)

projected word count: 7-9k current status: nearly fully outlined and in the process of being written summary: after earning a year-long mission abroad, you and katsuki break up. there's no animosity, it's for the best and it's easy to ignore him while he's gone. it's only after he gets back that the affection bubbles up. and it's only after a massive villain attack that they break through.

with the tides; todoroki shouto x reader (selkie au)

projected word count: 8-10k current status: outlining summary: there's been something... different about the sea, some innate feeling, something tugging at you. it's only after a routine rescue, cutting a seal caught by a reckless fisherman's net, that that strangeness materializes. you just hadn't expected that something to materialize into a... someone.

untitled; hawks x reader (soulmate au)

projected word count: 7-9k current status: outlining summary: after your coffee shop is ruined by a villain attack nearby, you come face to face with the number one hero: winged hero hawks; who, frankly, thinks you're incredibly interesting. after your first meeting, he returns throughout the weeks under the guise of coffee and croissants. he's always loved the idea of soulmates, of someone destined to love him and he hopes you're it for him. he finds his answer after your shop suffers another attack.

eyes so green; midoriya izuku x reader (soulmate au)

projected word count: 6-8k current status: outlining summary: izuku has always loved the idea of soulmates, keeping track of the countdown on his wrist. but as he gets older and the weight of heroism presses closer, he forgets. so when he finally meets you, it's like everything has clicked into place. if only you shared his enthusiasm.

i like you a latte; kaminari denki x reader (coffee shop au)

projected word count: 3-5k current status: outlining summary: denki’s determined to make you fall in love with him, cheesy one-liners and all, even if he goes into debt from all the overpriced lattes and pastries in the process. little does he know he’s already one you over, you just like watching him fumble.

untitled; dabi x reader (grievances to lovers)

projected word count: 8-10k current status: not started, trying to outline summary: you've never gotten along with touya, he makes sure of it. but he always seems to be around, always there to prod his way under your skin. when you're paired with the (now rehabilitated) villain on a mission, you learn that he's not.. the worst person in the world. even if you'd rather die that tell him that.

untitled; hawks x reader (tangled au)

projected word count: 12-14k current status: not started, consuming my every thought summary: ever the opportunist, you take your unfortunate run in with the infamous hawks and twist it to your advantage. despite everything, he's your best shot at finding what you're looking for. even if it means you spend half your time hiding from the kings guard.

the horror and the wild; dabi x reader (mermaid au)

lost & found; bakugou katsuki x reader (zookeeper au)

during your tour, guided by an incredibly annoyed zookeeper, you both stumble across a lost child which forces you to work together to find their parents. and maybe bakugou gets a little a lot less annoyed with you.

wine & dine; dabi x reader (zookeeper au)

as the field trip comes to an end and you’re preparing to leave, it begins to rain, forcing you and the keeper in charge of the reptile house to huddle together under a small roof until it passes.

out of the rain; hawks x reader (bath fic)

hawks hates the rain, it’s uncomfortable and annoying, but he still always takes care of you. he still uses his wing as a makeshift umbrella when you’re out,despite the way it matts his down and fluffs his feathers. it’s only fair to return the care, the tenderness.

for kai’s the only truth is music collab; song fic based on susie save your love by allie x

love me as i am; bakugou katsuki x reader (bath fic)

the world has always been cruel to katsuki, rough and expecting. it weighs heavy on his shoulders–makes him hard to love, but you’ve never seem to care. you take him for what he is. when work has him ragged, you’re always there to take care of him–soft and tender and loving.

tenderness; bakugou katsuki x reader (sick fic)

you get sick before date night and katsuki spends the night looking after you.

[i-will-write]

Guess who have multiple wip waiting to be update but still choose to write a oneshot at 3am on a weekday?

New fic posted :)

It takes inspiration from this post i found yesterday. Yes I wrote the whole thing in half an hour before collapsing into bed. No I don't regret it. Whole fic under the cut

In which Asgard do not teach basic math

Disclaimer: english is NOT my first language and I wrote this while sleep deprived so I have honestly no idea how coherent it is nor how many errors there are. I tried editing it but... not my first language, remember?

~~~~

Tony landed just slightly behind Thor. The two gods were locked into another one of their discussions slash screaming match, which meant that at least the humans on the team could take a little breather.

"Stop this foolish endeavor at once, brother!"

Loki laughed, high and wild and crazy, hands crossed on his stomach and head shaking.

"Madness? You call this madness?" his eyes glinted in the sun, lips uncovering his teeth, not unlike a feral animal "This is my right! My claim to a throne is not madness and you are the foolish one in thinking that simple mortals could ever stop me !"

Thor stepped forward, Mjolnir raised and pointed toward Loki.

"Your mind has been poisoned by madness and your evil doing is stopping here!"

In one, fluid motion the hammer left his palm and grazed Loki, making his cape flutter in the wind. Loki laughed again, mirth and anger mixing into an inebriating cocktail of emotions. The impact of Mjolnir with Thor's palm almost resonated in the following silence. Loki smirked, dark and furious.

"Is it?" one quick motion of his finger and the air glimmered blindingly with greens and gold and silvers. Once it dissipated three Loki standed in the place of one.

"What kind of trick is this!" bellowed Thor "Three Lokis? That's one too many!"

Loki stopped laughing.

Tony blinked.

Hard.

Any chance that Loki had a secret twin or something?

Thor ignored both of them opting for rising his arm ready to strike. Loki, on other hard, let his arms fall. He looked a little crestfallen and definitely disappointed.

"One too many, Thor?"

Thor face contorted.

"One? " Loki demanded rubbing - no, all the three Lokis rubbed their foreheads.

"Let's just … how many brothers do you have?"

Thor raised his chin proudly : "One."

"Right. And how many Lokis are there right now?"

Thor's brows furrowed and a long second of silence passed.

"Thor?"

"...three?"

"That's correct!"

Thor smiled.

"So how many are false Lokis?

Thor brows furrowed again.

Loki waited.

Thor's eyes squinted moving from one figure to the other.

Loki smiled encouragingly .

"One?"

Loki's shoulder dropped.

"One is the real one. There is only one Loki. How many do you see?"

"Three"

"Exactly. Three minus one is…?"

"Four."

Tony could clearly see Loki's heartbreak at the confident answer.

"Three plus one is four." and a new Loki appeared. "This is four, alright." the fouth Loki disappeared "And this is.."

"Three?"

"So four minus one is…"

Thor shifted on his feets, eyes darting from one figure to the other. One of the Loki raised one finger slowly pointing at each of them.

"...one…two…three…"

Thor mumbled for a little more before raising his head.

"Three!"

"Correct. Four minus one is three. Three plus one is four. Clear?"

Thor nodded.

"So three minus one is…?"

One of the figures disappeared.

"Two…?"

Loki clapped his hands.

"Correct. If there are three Lokis and one is real, how many are illusions?"

"...three?"

Yep, that was a facepalm alright.

"Three Lokis." and the figures waved "One is real" and only one Loki remained "So how many are false?"

Thor's eyes skirted his brother's boots, looking around the battlefield.

"One?"

"Two, Thor, two! The answer is two!" The two Lokis appeared again in a flurry of agitated desperation " Two illusion and one real. Three minus one is two! Two plus one is three!"

Thor's face contorted in a half snare: " It does not matter-"

"IS BASIC MATH, THOR. BASIC MATH! I TAUGHT YOU BEFORE I FELL! "

Loki was positively incensed, arm thrashing around and spark of magic flowing out of his mouth .

"One plus two equals three! Three minus two equals one!" Loki parroted " Basic! Math!!"

"He kind of has a point, pointbreak"

Thor scowl depened.

"I can't! I leave for… for what? A year? A single nornfosaken year? And you forget everything I taught you? Did you even try to solve the exercises I left you??"

"They are boring and useless."

"You can't count Thor!"

"Father agree-"

"Father is a moron!"

Mjolnir flew out of Thor's hand and smacked one of the Lokis into the ground. Prevedibly , said Loki disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"Next time!" Loki's voice was almost a shrill at this point "I expect you to have learned at least basic single digit additions and subtractions, am I clear ?"

Mjolnir returned in Thor's hand and the remaining two Loki's shimmered away.

Tony looked around at the empty battlefield and heard Clint snickering into the comms .

"You know pointbreak, we can definitely fix you up with a private teacher or some-"

Thor's cape fluttered into the wind as he flew away as Clint bursted out laughing. Thanks providence for never letting him give Thor a comm.

"Nha-ah! Let him! Let him!"

"Clint-"

"Well, this was less destructive than usual. Let's go home, boys."

And so they did.

Told you it was crack. Hope you enjoyed it! If so please reblog! It means a lot ❤

The discussion between Loki and Thor is 100% real and happened last month with one of the kids I tutor (needless to say we used fingers and not clones, but alas). Tutoring is fun (:

There’s nothing better than jumping onto Tumblr after a long day and seeing your username in my notifications.

Your tags that you leave after a reblog never fail to put a smile on my face 🥰 I’m glad that some of the content is able to put one on yours!

How are you love? Are you well? I hope so.

I love seeing everyone’s reactions to the chapters you upload 😆 it’s wild!

Plus your live reading is entertaining af 😎

Another month is coming to an end and soon my “balloon day” (as Twitter calls it) will be here. It falls on a Wednesday this year…so I’m thinking of doing something special…something participatory for Wretched & Divine Wednesday. I hope you’ll be able to partake 😉

Seems like I’m always planning something special for W&D 😂🙈 on that note tho I do have a selfish question for you.

A while back I had posted the Prologue of my story for the one year anniversary of W&D Wednesdays. I was wondering if you’ve had a chance to check it out?

I know you have been busy with your own stories (masterpieces really), work, reading, and life in general. There’s no rush!! I just value your opinion so I’m curious to hear your thoughts when and if ever you check it out 😊. It is a bit heavy and there are warnings so totally understandable if you end up being uncomfortable! I put warnings to make sure no one went in blind and ended up hurt.

Ok I think I have rambled on enough 🙈 I leave you with this ♥️

Emmmyyyyyy.

I love catching up with your content! I need that burst of energy to go through all my mentions and look at all the amazing work y'all tag me in and whenever I find the energy and look at yours, I always crave more!

I love seeing art and fics and edits which make me go 'holy shit a lot of thought and effort when into this'. You are amazing!

OMG BALLOON DAY? REALLY? Why not cake day 🙊

Of course I will partake and I'm very curious about what you're planning 👀😍

I don't think I've seen the prologue. It must have escaped me! You'll know if I have 🫢 I have a weird thing for prologues. I just feel like they have so much power in setting a story. Oddly enough, it's one of my favorite parts in a book.

Will you please send me the link if you can? I would LOVE to read it 😇

LOVE YOU TOO, GENTLE DOVE!

#emmy boo

[laximpulsion]

love the new chapter!! Can't wait for the next one, do u have any fave leatin fics i can check out in the meantime?

Why thank youuuu!! So glad you're liking it :) Lol, very good question! To give you a needlessly long answer with a lot of disclaimers...

It all starts with the kind of funny fact that i actually got into the wilds because of Shoni! But by the time i started writing I had done a HARD pivot to leatin. And now that I write, I do a lot less reading than I did before, so I don't actually have as many leatin fic recs as one might hope. (I definitely have more shoni fics bookmarked on my ao3 page than leatin ones lmao it's kind of funny)

ALSO, I tend to actively avoid fics that sound similar to what I'm writing now or what I plan on writing in the near future. So for that reason I have not read many S3 fics or post-island fics. And a side effect of this is that i DO read a lot of AUs, so this might be mostly AUs, sorry if thats not your jam!! maybe someone else can chime in with canon fics?

anyway. i KNOW im gonna be missing lots of good ones so sorry in advance but here's some ideas to get you started:

This feels like low hanging fruit but it's true - anything by lostresidentevilpotter is a good bet, the ex-girlfriends one was an instant classic for me and actually i think it was one of the first leatin fics i ever read! really you could spend a week making your way through the lostresidentevilpotter archives and it would be a week well spent.

I'm also a big JourEtNuit fan - this one where all the girls go into witness protection after the island was another instant classic, and another of the ones that I read really early on in my fandom journey so it has a special place in my heart. more recently i loved the The Last of Us AU !

Perhaps an unconventional pick because it's not my usual thing but this social media AU where the girls start a joint tiktok account after the island has TOTALLY charmed me and I adore it, always makes me smile.

I really enjoyed this series by tardexlanoche - think this is actually the only full-on s3 fic I've read, and I loved the premise set up by the first one in the series where Fatin and Leah were kind of almost friends before the island. Plus i believe there will be a sort of AU of itself that branches off after the first fic in the series about what would happen betw. them if they never went to the island, which I think is a super neat concept.

And one of the few other canon-adjacent fics I read and enjoyed a lot is The Fall by Ecrooked24 , where leah and fatin get stuck in a ravine and have to confront their feelings - with angst aplenty. (I've also been loving Polaroids!!)

And then there's a few others that only started recently but I'm keeping an eye on because they intrigued me -

tip the world on its side - leah sees gretchen in LA, i have no idea what's going on but i'm very into it so far

this compass tattoo soulmate au - i am not usually a soulmate AU kind of gal but this one has got me hooked!

this ghost hunter AU - had me at ghost honestly! and then had me again at ghost *hunter* lol

this one where Fatin leaves Leah annotated books - annotated books are such a cute concept and it was SO ruined by jeff doing it!

whew okay...sorry this was so long but if you follow me you should hopefully know by now that i write fucking NOVELS any chance i get hahaha. if anyone has anything else to add please feel free!! especially s3/canon-adjacent/post-island fics!

EDIT: suggestions from the comments - these are all great too, i've read a lot of them and started others!!

Mad Girl's Love Song by ThornedRose44 come home to my heart by scoutshonour, Sleepless in Sylvester by comicc_bookk_jawnss, pull you from the tide aka the tinder series au by overnights, did you win? aka the celeb au by lunchables, and can't forget the amnesia au i was dangerously tangled (the second time i met you) by rosymidnights.

#answered #again i am SO SORRY this is so long. #not my goofy ass saying i might not have many fic recs then throwing this monster of a post at you lol #added some suggestions from the comments btw!

[daydreamrry]

Before I’m called homophobic cuz that’s apparently your go-to on this blog if someone disagrees, have y’all ever stopped to consider the Bradrry jokes aren’t considered funny (anymore) cuz y’all been at it for literal months now? Wild thought huh? Go figure. I don’t give a rat’s ass who he sticks his dick into as long as he’s being safe; man, woman or alien. Just open your minds to the possibility it’s just stopped being funny or original after months. I’ve heard rational honest asks aren’t posted here but here it is nonetheless.

Look if you don't find it funny then why are you on this blog? We don't just joke about Harry and Brad, we joke about a lot of other things because Gossiprry is actually the only blog that I've come across who can take a joke and even the nonnies here too. We're not making conspiracy theories or stalking them or being larries we're just having fun. During the stunt none of you guys had a problem whenever we would joke about them two clowning around and how he was more interested in the yatch guy than #her. But I didn't see anyone coming here and lecturing us about that. You know why? Like another anon said it's very likely that Harry hasn't seen yatch guy since that day but because Brad is with Harry literally 24/7 you have a problem. Because deep down you know that it COULD happen. I'm not saying they're together. I (personally) definitely don't think they are but I am saying there is still a chance anything could happen or has happened between them and with the way some of you guys are reacting to us joking about them two and complaining about us on other blogs it does seem like you guys are scared of that so of course some us are going to think you're homophobic. If we were making conspiracy theories and making a huge timeline or pic edits / manips then yeah I would see why but we're literally just joking around. It hasn't even been going on for months. We literally found out about Brad after the stunt ended or not long before that. And so what if it has been going on for months? Why does it affect you so much? And if it does why are you still following this blog? If you can't take a joke then I'm sorry hun this blog isn't for you. And the same goes for the others too.

here is a kiss for you for being a lovely smart angel 😘

WIP Sunday

Okay....NGL I kinda full-on forgot it was Sunday so we're getting a very belated, nearly Monday posting.

From here on out, all WIP may contain spoilers and spoiler characters, so read at your own risk.

Today's scene is a rare scene with Jaster and Walon discussing things about certain characters. Not anything super exciting I"m afraid to say but eh, they can't all be super intense or fun scenes.

As always, it is super rough and not edited whatsoever etc. etc.

Unfortunately for him, he had to wait a couple of hours until Jaster returned from the latest session of peace talks. The older Mandalorian looked tired and had a frustrated look in his eyes which didn’t bode well for how well the talks had gone.

“You look like a man who needs a drink.”

“I need multiple drinks.” Jaster snorted and rubbed at his face tiredly.

“I’ll trade you a drink for five minutes of your time.”

That earned him a wary look from Jaster. “Now I”m worried.”

Amusement twitched at the corners of Walon’s mouth as he fetched a couple of bottles of black ale from the kitchen. It wasn’t his first choice but to those born and raised in the Mandalore system, they tended to go wild for it which was why they kept a stock of it.

“I want to talk to you about our house guest.” Walon assured him as he held out the bottle to Jaster.

“Stars…what did she do now?” Jaster asked tiredly and flopped down onto the couch bonelessly.

“Nothing so far but I suspect she might be plotting something. She’s been spending a lot of time with Almec’s brat.”

That had Jaster’s eyes narrowing slightly. “Has she threatened him or shown any sign of aggression towards the boy?” The last thing any of them needed was her hurting the New Mandalorian ambassador’s only child and putting their barely unified partyline at risk.

“No, nothing like that. It could be anything, it’s just…strange she would be so open to making friends with a New Mandalorian due to the amount of osik Vizsla probably filled her head with about them.”

“A fair point, but he also would have done the same for us. So far she hasn’t tried to hurt anyone. She’s angry and liable to lash out like a feral Nexu but she hasn’t demonstrated herself a threat in any way.”

“I’ve noticed,” Walon murmured ironically and took a long sip of his ale. “It could be nothing but I wanted to bring it to your attention. We also had a bit of an…enlightening discussion this afternoon.”

That earned him a cocked eyebrow from Jaster as the older man copied him and drank deeply from his bottle. “Enlightening in what way?”

“She made it abundantly clear to me that she is tired of other people thinking they have a right to have any say in her life and that she isn’t going to accept anything but a frank discussion regarding her potential freedom before she is willing to cooperate with us in any way.”

Jaster grimaced at that news and his brows knit together in a frown.

“We’re not keeping her prisoner here just for a lark, Walon. We need to make sure she’s even safe to unleash on the general population and I definitely don’t think we should unleash her on Coruscant. She might survive but I feel like she’d have a much better chance at a happier life if she returns with us to Mandalore where we have the resources to set her up for success.”

“I understand all of that. And I’m not arguing against any of that, either. I think it’s the wisest course of action myself, but I do think she needs to hear it from you.”

The older Mandalorian shot him a considering look and took another swig from his ale to give him a moment to ponder his reply.

“You really think it would be that simple?”

“Can it hurt to try? I imagine having this unknown and nebulous fate hanging over her head isn’t exactly helping matters or making her more inclined to trust you or any of us.”

“Alright, I’ll talk to her. Thank you for the suggestion, Walon. I…hope I can count on your insight going forward. I don’t ever want you to feel like you can’t bring something to my attention. The ale is appreciated but you don’t need to bribe me for my time, vod.”

“I’ve learned that with Mandalorians, alcohol is often a good peace offering or a social ice-breaker so I figured it couldn’t help.”

“I appreciate the thought and honestly? You weren’t wrong, I definitely needed a drink after today.”

“Is it going that poorly?” Walon asked curiously.

“It’s just….there’s a lot of paperwork and number crunching involved in trying to negotiate a trade agreement on top of pseudo-peace talks.”

“Have you considered you might be trying to push too much at once?”

“Of course but you know how much time and effort it took to get us this far. If I was to accomplish half and go back home, I don’t even know if I could rally the support enough to get everyone back to the same table a second time around. Not without this trade agreement being a rousing success.”

“Some people do this sort of thing for a living, don’t they? Deal with the extended legalese and finer details of negotiating a better deal for their clients? I know on my homeworld, we often went through the Trade Federation.”

“We tried that, actually, Adonai made that suggestion already, but thus far no one is willing to risk pissing off them. They are adamantly against this trade agreement because they don’t want this to succeed. ”

“The Jedi handle a lot of negotiations themselves, right? Even if they cannot directly intervene, I would imagine they could point you in the direction of people who wouldn’t mind putting the Trade Federation’s noses out of joint. A rival faction, perhaps? Maybe you should ask your Jedi?”

“My Jedi?” Jaster asked with a snort which only earned him a mild look from Vau. “So we’re just not even going to pretend anymore?”

“I thought you two have given up on that already within these walls. You were hardly being circumspect.”

Jaster rolled his eyes heavenward and climbed to his feet. “Mij’s penchant for mouthiness is infectious, I see.” He said, wry amusement coloring every word. “I guess I should go talk to Arla. Depending on how that talk goes, let’s try and get the lads together for a gaming night and let off some steam. I’m sure everyone is going a little stir-crazy by now.”

“I’ll arrange it.”

“See if Kryze or any of the other delegation members wish to join as well. Just make sure it’s clear it’s all for fun. “

“Probably wise considering Clan Ordo.”

“That was my thinking as well.” Jaster agreed and pat Walon on the shoulder before making his way towards his room to change out of his armor and into something less martial before he sought out Arla. Something told him he didn’t want to come at this meeting putting on an aggressive posture so hopefully if he approached dressed down in more casual attire, it wouldn’t immediately put her on her guard, and they could make it through this meeting without her lashing out at him.

It was probably pure foolish optimism on his part but he had to try.

Haikyuu Fics: The Classics™️

EDIT: pt 2!!

I wanted to make a post to archive what I would call “The Classics” as far as Haikyuu fanfic on ao3 goes. For anyone new to the daunting world of Haikyuu fanfiction, these works are probably the most popular, talked-about works throughout the fandom, so they are a good place to start! I haven’t read some of these, but the reason I included them is that I’ve seen so much hype around them. Comment the ones I missed, and I’m definitely going to be doing a part 2. Enjoy <3 :D

*contains nsfw fics* READ TAGS BEFORE U READ

⭑=my faves

BOKUAKA

Rules by ConesOfDunshire⭑

E, 120 k words

Accountant Akaashi. Pianist Bokuto. WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT??? This fic is seriously novel-worthy, and Bokuto having Asperger’s is a beautiful component to the story. I found that the characterization and the attention to detail the author put into the story is what made it a truly distinguishable and unique fic that allowed it to rise to the top. It is worth every kudos, comment, bookmark, and more. Highly recommend.

Behind Bricks by DeathBelle⭑

E, 60 k words, cw: prostitution, choking, and heavy content so READ THE TAGS

This darker fic follows Akaashi as he deals with his life as a prostitute, and how Bokuto comes in and is able to change it for the better. I feel sometimes that heavy topics such as the trauma from sex work are really misrepresenting in fanfiction, but the author does a great job of portraying it in a real way and not romanticizing it at all. I loved to watch love bloom for Akaashi in the cracks of his tumultuous life, because he deserves everything <333

In Another Life by LittleLuxray⭑

T, 22 k words, cw: terminal illness, hospitals, major character death

As the highest-rated Haikyuu fanfic on ao3, this work is a monument and will go down in Haikyuu history. That being said, it honestly did such a number on me that I think it deserves the hype. This hospital au revolving around Akaashi and Bokuto’s budding relationship is truly heartbreaking, to say the least. Read it at your own risk, and oh, you can find references to it under almost any Bokuaka related post.

IWAOI

Conquering the Great King by SuggestiveScribe

105 k words, E

This rollercoaster of a fic, set in a universe where Oikawa and Iwaizumi meet in a bar, is funny, profound, and awe-inspiring all in one. The relationship dynamic between the two is very cute and well-done. I highly recommend this one if you are a sucker for some good, old Iwaoi, and I also love the side pairings. Just, overall, a really nice and satisfying read.

the courtship ritual of the hercules beetle by kittebasu(chanyeol)

T, 66.3k words, cw: injury, homophobia

This fic is a favorite on tik tok, from what I’ve observed. I haven’t read it yet, but when people discuss it, they always commend the writing and the non-linear narrative. I have personally not read this one yet, but I have seen people rave about this one because of the emotional impact it had on them. It seems to me that the writing and emotions on this one are its claims to fame, so definitely check it out.

Desperado by Verbrennung

M, 82k words

Talk about raved about fics, I have seen this one mentioned countless times on various platforms. This Iwaoi fic is set in a Vegas/Japan fusion setting, which immediately caught my eye. The premise of a heist fic also is probably what caught people's attention the most, because what is better than an Iwaoi heist fic (nothing. nothing is better.) I recommend this if you want a bit of a longer fic that had a tumultuous plot and a wild romance.

SAKUATSU

Burden of Blame by DeathBelle⭑

E, 91k words, cw: graphic violence, guns, ptsd, panic attacks, murder, death, injury and more so READ TAGS

Burden of Blame is THE mafia au fic of the Haikyuu ao3 universe. I love this fic soooo much. From it’s wild plot to the flawless writing, I was constantly on my feet. I definitely recommend if you want something that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Also, the enemies to lovers is CHEFS FUCKING KISS.

A Liar’s Truth by internetpistol⭑

E, 49.6k words, cw: HOMOPHOBIA!! read tags pls

Oh. My. God. I simply cannot with this fic. It turned me inside out, upside down, and threw me into the void. Please, if you have one singular brain cell, you will read this fic. This narrative about Sakusa’s life and his relationship with his sexuality is a masterpiece. I cannot recommend this one enough. You do not want to miss out on this genuine piece of art. 

Stick With You by lettersinpetals

E, 99k words

This fic follows Sakusa and Atsumu as they get stuck in the Philippines over quarantine. Honestly, if you want an enemies to lovers that really goes in depth into the trope, this is the one for you. One of my favorite things about this fic is the inclusion of the Filipino language, and I found myself reading all of the translations at the end. I would recommend this if you want a longer, feel good Sakuatsu fic. Also, lettersinpetals is a Sakuatsu classic author.

the Terminal Curiosity series by favspacetwink and moonlumie

E, total 112k words, not finished, 8 works, READ TAGS

This fic is probably the notorious BDSM fic, which I’m glad because it portrays it in a very consensual and safe way. I’m personally not into that stuff, but I still was able to enjoy it for the plot and the amazing writing. I definitely recommend it if you are looking for something with BDSM components with some focus on their relationship dynamics too. I actually did really enjoy this fic, and I think the way their relationship kind of progressed backward was really, really good. Even if BDSM isn’t your cup of tea, I still recommend checking this one out and reading the tags to see if it is something you’re willing to give a chance too, because, for me, it paid off.  

KUROKEN

the galaxy is endless (i thought we were, too) by cosmogony

T, 30.9k words, cw: illness, DEATH

I have yet to read this fic. I am genuinely too afraid. Similarly to In Another Life, I constantly see people discussing to the degree in which this fic destroyed them, and honestly after In Another Life, I don’t think I could handle another one. This soulmates au has crushed so many people throughout the fandom that if you want someone to give you more detail on why it’s the saddest thing ever, you probably wouldn’t have to look very far.

Of Monsters and Men by shions_heart

M, 220k words, cw: violence, temporary character death

This longer fic follows Kuroo, Kenma, and many others through a demon hunter/buffy the vampire-style universe, with magic, drama, and much more. If you are looking for a fantasy, action-packed, beautifully written fic, this is definitely one you should check out. The romance and action combination will always be chefs kiss, superb.

alright all that’s left now is to hit post and

*record scratch*

oh wait, what? whats that? i can't reblog with more content on the main post? it’s technically too big?!

oh well well well then okay. hey :leans in close: did i… ever crash your app with the op post? i wanted to apologize for that. truly sorry. the truth is, the original post also crashes my app! wild! yes, well, as big of a fan of push media as i am i’m going to have to break away from the original post to get the job done this year but if you’re new here and don’t know about the eye theory please for the love of god click the below link to read through the original. it’s required reading.

(click for the op)

…

…

yes ok. welcome back! did i make you dizzy? jeepers my eyes do hurt, just after putting together this update! but i come bearing gifts…! frankincense, myrrh, gold, and a *plump* 2021 eye theory update for the remaining bakers dozen or so of us left hanging in this manger… because apparently that’s just the way things will be 😘 again, i’m far past proving this thing and more into sharing, yeah, sharing the fun memories over the past year living with this theory so that’s what i’ll do. and this requires more than the ten picture limit so in lieu of that i will be updating only once but with links to each finding. my demarcation is the same as last year:

so without further ado, here comes our…

2021 year in review

JANUARY

★ kimby posting the eye mirror thing at the beginning of the year (which i posted about at the end of the last update)

★karlie liked a tweet (a rarity at the time) from henry hall promoting his new album… that had an eye and the number 13 on the album cover.

-we found another great photo match example

☆ we noticed something up with a new carolina herrera ad that ended up showing up again later in the year

☆ we noticed taylor covering her eye during rep tour while singing even in my worst lies you saw the truth in me

-we noticed an oft forgotten appearance of the evil eye ring in the rep promo material, photos of her on the beach

FEBRUARY

☆ we found a potential easter egg in the end game mv

★ one of the lyric videos for fearless TV had a fun synching moment ..that taylor then put in her instagram stories

★ taylor posted a bleachella era pic of her and the haim sisters that had the sisters covering eyes with their hoodies, and then honest to god this is just one of those thing i can’t quite conscionably explain but there are two boxes of pizzas being held and the cheese only pizza looks like the “blank” of the two pizzas and it’s to the right of the picture

★ kayda and kai did some eye funny business

MARCH

★ the grammys… so, taylor’s performance included choreography that covers her right side eye along with the line “guess i should have known from the look on your face” and i know this is one of the things people particularly do not like but i’m such a sucker for prop comedy: i think the shape of the lean-to cabin itself is the shape of an eye and also the belted waist part of her dress looks like an eye, i said what i said

-and this can’t help but feel like chance, but, we got this red carpet press photo of her grammy covering her eye

-something also feeling serendipitous, karlie got papped by some eye graffiti

APRIL

-The Vault reveal left me wanting to get my eyes checked 😂

☆ we realized one could make the argument that there’s a eye isolated by the mask on her male counterpart in willow, and that the mask has a drooping daisy embroidered on it

-i got the chance to talk a little bit more about my thoughts on the editing that went on with the mert and marcus rep photoshoot photos, and my thoughts on computer graphic manipulation as it relates to other things, in particular lead time

★ taylor seemed to have more fun with synching up the fearless tv clip to music 🙈

★ taylor’s mother’s day merch included a postcard with a daisy and the lyric “i love you for giving me your eyes”

MAY

-not for nothing, austin posted a picture of him at the Oculus building in NYC (oculus being a word that means eye, austin being someone who rarely updates his instagram these days)

★ karlie got back in the saddle with posting an eye out of frame

★ some preview photos of karlie’s green adidas collection were released, and they included this amazing shot

and wouldnt ya know it she made it her profile pic after the collection release

JUNE

★ more kayda funny business (i feel like there were a lot more of these but i wasn’t able to keep track)

★ karlie got papped wearing a prada jacket with a print of a one eyed beach babe

-taylor mixed up her words during a thank you speech while accepting an award and said “she helped me to edit my eyes” which i mean i don’t think it was intentional but it certainly made my year 🙈

★ karlie wore this versace blazer that inexplicably has a hole cut out of it to the right?? which was made even more meaningful given the fact that i had been spiraling over the tie with the hole in it in the lwymmd video a few months prior idk 😆

★ the how long do you think it’s gonna last album was announced with an… eye collage… 🙈🙈 and kept the promo coming into july with eye cutout moments like this

JULY

★ then the Renegade music video was released and it was just chock a block with eye manipulation! singled out eyes, taylor covering her right side eye with her hands, with her hair, the eyes on her face cut out and zoomed in on. like, i’m sorry, it’s 2021 and we are really doing this ladies???

-and i came up with a funny (/emotional)

-karlie met with schiaparelli in paris, who had just come out with a collection full of gilded eyes among other body parts

★ karlie blocked an eye for estée lauder —a true pastime— and thus began the formalization of the tradition of me waking up to karlie having posted something ocular to instagram

AUGUST

☆ adam rippon posted a little ode to karlie’s “looking camp right in the eye 👁 ” moment, which normally id just chalk up to it having become a meme but at the same time, bobby berk liked the post and they were both in the yntcd mv, so it’s sorta amusing

★ karlie posts “filed under baking inspo” moodboard which included a pic of a face made of food with one eye 🥴🥴🥴 like i’m sorry, is this not proof of acknowledgement 😆

★ karlie posts a photoset of her in workout clothes and she’s covering the left side eye in a lot of the pics

★ karlie wore some eye-like rain and sunshine earrings from two jewelers that also make custom lover’s eye jewelry

SEPTEMBER

★ taylor covered an eye on the tiktok

-i noticed that each of karlie’s adidas collections had their own moments

-also like this is simply an act of god but somehow taylor and karlie got a photo taken at the 2014 met gala where karlie is standing to the right next to a woman with an eye purse…?

☆we noticed two things about the UPS commercial she did during rep era

★ karlie hid an eye while getting ready for the met gala which was the start to a crazy crazy day here on kaylor tumblr

☆ someone kindly pointed out to me that birch feat. taylor swift just as names of trees goes is also sus 🥴

-we listed up some of the possibly eye theory -aligned taymoji

★ karlie posted a promo clip of her designing her met dress at carolina herrera and it had an eye moment

-taylor has sort of established winks as a Taylor’s Version easter egg gesture so i don’t really count things like this in the grand scheme of things but i can’t help but feel this wink was exaggerated in post which would mean the eye could have been edited, and for that i’ll mention it

-this is just an it’s a small world moment having to do with researching the band of outsiders brand

★ taylor using an eye covered pic of shania twain on her tiktok

★ karlie blocking eyes again in a photoshoot make that two

OCTOBER

✦★✶ karlie went to mert alas’ gin release party in paris I REPEAT she went to the party being held by the guy who took the rep album photoshoot photos aka the guy who took the actual eye theory photo and not only did she get a pic with him, she drank out of the gin glasses that had an eye like pattern cut into them???

★ karlie woke me up again and chose violence

-i forget how i ran into this but it’s this old photoshoot of karlie in a daisy full body suit with her arms and head in the shape of an eye idk lol

★ karlie posted a photoset with some eye blocking moments going on

NOVEMBER

-in a moment of meta, karlie got the chance to post a pic of bert and ernie to her instagram stories as she was also a part of the WSJ innovators issue

☆ taylor’s grammy dresses went on display and the waist fabric looked even more like an eye so sue me!

★ karlie really made it christmas morning every morning 🥴

★ RED TV lyric videos also got a moment

★ the IBYTAM video had us all reeling for plenty of reasons but i made sure to have my fun …kinda cool how it fits though 😂 this stood out to a lot of us and this too

-it’s the little things

-blame it on the vault crest and red dresses but i allowed myself to lean in to the crazy a bit more than usual and tbh i had the best time with it

☆ i had a thought about So It Goes as it relates to rep tour

-The Missing Eye Puzzle Piece it turned out that the missing capital one red bundle puzzle piece was simply missing, and it has been found, **but** i had an amazing couple of weeks imagining the ARG possibilities. oh and i still love that the right side eye is the 11th puzzle piece across, 8 rows down (karlie numbers)

DECEMBER

★ karlie posted again blockin an eye 😂

★ shes so good at finding an opportunity

★ karlie wearing a sweatshirt with an eye on it because why not i guess 🙈

-surely coincidental but i did laugh at where her music choice in this post led me

★ and it turned out the eye glassware at the mert alas gin release party ended up being used in the promo photos for the stuff

★karlie did a ‘comeback’ -esque spread for WSJ and she delivered

-add this to the list of potential cross-media tie in opportunities that surely weren’t intentional but i would point to in terms of what she could potentially do should she want to bring back this level of easter egging for reputation TV

★ waking up again to some uncanny carolina herrera hijinks

★ karlie blocking an eye again 🙈

-i talked a little bit about the evil eye ring making it’s appearances with the angel wing ring

★ like i said, this karlie post waiting for me when i woke up thing, it became a morning ritual

-there was a red tv album print mishap… istg the way i moved (is this what the kids say)

★ taylor blocked an eye in her new years reel

so there you have it, folks! 2021, a kaylor year that had me throwing my hands up and deciding to bend with the wind and roll with the punches… paid dividends?! i included the ephemera (the winks and out of frames) just because i see them as a sustainable avenue for the dreary new parent, but all these aside it still blows my mind how many distinctly significant things happened in conjunction with the theory this year and i hope very very deeply and earnestly that each and every one of you may have had the chance to crack a smile or two as well 😌

its weird… seeing karlie and mert photographed gave me this lavish sense of… coming full circle! but 🥰 who knows what next year will bring. what can i say, as if it was my greco-roman destiny, i know i will always beat the drum for this theory if they will have me. eye can’t help myself!

have a happy new year🥳
