not going to spoil anything properly but for 'hope for an endless sunset' (caimseys finale, sept 22nd) i've commissioned a few pieces for a few things and i'm genuinely so ecstatic to show you all
I was stunned and amazed to be shown this today. Someone liked my Merman Buck fic so much that they used it to practise learning how to book bind (for personal use and enjoyment only, no selling dw).
LOOK HOW PRETTY IT IS!!! omg. If you've read the fic you will know just how apt this cover is. I am so honoured and touched and just utterly gobsmacked that someone liked something I wrote enough to do this. Just... wow.
Here's a link to the fic if anyone is interested: Cherish
Summary:
After surviving the tsunami with Christopher, Buck found himself suffering the consequences of his actions during the lawsuit. Isolated from his loved ones, plagued by nightmares and a deep fear of water, once his most cherished element, he begins a solitary journey to conquer his water-based trauma. Months later, Buck has long ago reconciled with the 118, and he and Eddie have grown closer than they’d ever been.
Then Buck’s plans to unveil his new hobby to his fire family are abruptly thwarted by an unforeseen accident, leaving everyone in a state of shock – and the future of any relationship with Eddie uncertain.
4. favorite rarepair fic? i’m trying to rec fics i haven’t before so please allow me recommend off-season acquisition by @moregraceful a sharks goalie4goalie that is soooo tender (and tender-horny) that also hints at a morning kitchen scene at the end and honestly there’s nothing like extreme tenderness followed by a good morning kitchen scene to make me want to scream and cry and shake my fists at the heavens, which this did
10. a fic that made you laugh? go for lost in foreign lands (nate/ej) a fic which i am sure i have talked about before but hoping it was on the old deleted url, which has the most unhinged, well-executed, delightful premise
20. last fic you read? here are two, very different: who can grow me by @crosbyism (matthew & brady tkachuk and mind the ‘&’ if you’re hoping for sibcest), read it recently and have yet to properly recommend it so now i’m rectifying that injustice!! be prepared for feelings
and it would be a sin not to sin (dunn/larssen) by @tapedsleeves which was a delicious slice of established relationship D/s (light) which honestly i don’t see in combination that often
random thought but like people who make music are so fucking cool. like. you take 10+ tracks on an audio software of different notes with different instruments and pay attention to intervals and harmonics and all that shit?? you're able to take a couple of notes and turn that into a melody and create leitmotifs?? you're able to find a right balance of atmosphere and music and only end up being able to appreciate it as background music and CONTINUE to keep pumping banger after banger????
music creators/remixers are insane fr my heart goes out to them
This is for @sofwrites, who is one of the most talented writers I have had the pleasure of reading (not that I am any authority on the subject, but I do read a lot). This little tribute of mine does not make her work any justice whatsoever, but I wanted to show my appreciation for one of the most beautiful Polin fics I have had the pleasure of reading:
I swear to God the sofa legs are straight 🙄 The water just curls the paper, ahahah 😅 I hope you like it, sweetie, despite its childish charm.
Just keep up the good work, both in the Bridgerton world and out of it ❤️😉
