You can ignore this im just rambling about how cool this show is… if you’re anti Tommy just scroll

Tommy’s character arc on this show has become so meaningful and im pretty amazed and how they were able to turn bits and pieces of dialogue and action throughout his time on the show into something so complex and powerful. This person who was in survival mode in a line of work that can be so isolating. Someone who did everything to fit in, maybe hurting others in the process. Then we see that barrier slowly but surely come down until he’s there for his team, his friends and eventually himself. Someone so internally and externally isolated turned to someone so confident and sure of who he is. This person who can open his arms with empathy and care and kindness to someone else who just crawled out of an ever-present fog and is finally breathing fresh air. Tommy represents the hope of loving loud-loving yourself, those around you, the things you do and the difference that makes. I can confidently say there are a couple of obliviots who need that window of hope. Yes the Buckley-Diaz family will always be my endgame but right now Tommy is unbelievably important to their story, and no not just for Buck. He’s Eddie’s reflection. I do not want canon Buddie to be rushed. It becomes a cop out, and erases 5 years of such incredible development. Let them unravel a bit first. No cheating istfg. Appreciate the “oh” moments, and the obliviot moments, and let Buck have Tommy for now. Its sweet. It is going to make it so worth the wait. When Buck is happy for once and realizes he’s actually happiest with someone else who may or may not have been in front of his face for several years. SLOWBURNS ARE ELITE OKAY? I am going to enjoy the buddie angst and Tommy’s flirty bullying. Also… representation matters,, not just to us but maybe to a certain gay firefighter who is about to watch his best friend be happy with another man. That thats a possibility, and its okay.

jr is like. you are a straight man who is soooooo in love with this girl from your year at university and she is a lovely angel to you but oh no! you run into this extremely handsome man and then he makes you an employee. and then you have these feelings about him like he’s the most BEAUTIFUL man in the world the BEST person in the world and also you have a recurring dream about kissing him but probably in a straight way? (???) anyway then you keep telling your boss that you’re SOOO in love with this girl you’re gonna stop her arranged marriage she’s going along with… and your boss is like cool good luck! have fun! best wishes! and disappears off the face of the earth. causing you to have severe obsessive depression about it. meanwhile literally everyone (and I do mean everyone) from The Girl You Like to Every Customer of The Store to Random Person On the Street is like OBVIOUSLY HE’S IN LOVE WITH YOU and OBVIOUSLY YOU’RE IN LOVE WITH HIM. and you’re like naur.... couldn’t be. doesn’t compute. I like that girl, right? what is love anyway? anyway then the girl you like comes out as aroace to you and you go off and pretend to be your boss’ fiance in order to foil an extremely elaborate racist inheritance scheme. and then you are prepared to go to prison FOR LIFE just to protect your boss’ happiness.... then you basically exchange rings… and keep flirting with each other daily… anyway then you go back to japan and the absolute FARCE of this all is you and your boss both think neither of you is in love with the other. I (and every other secondary character in this story) want to kill myself btw

#this post for @andbuyspain. thanks for getting me #the case files of jeweller richard is 100% the most underrated fandom I am into #so slowburn it’s too slowburn for me. nothing else has given me that.#still haven’t kissed by vol. 11 or whatever but like. well. at least seigi knows what he’s about now #the books are licensed in english now so you too can have your very own digital and physical copies #sorry about this I finished vol. 5 and have nowhere to continue on to. life is very hard.#kira for ts

Teen Wolf is the type of show that I loved to death as a teenager but makes me cringe a little now…but I will forever be grateful for it ‘cause the music that I discovered through Teen Wolf to this day remains unbeaten!!!

I still unapologetically love teen wolf and will preach on S3 being genuinely good television, but yeah, every time I watch back anything in season one it’s a jumpscare. That was peak cringe. It’s so embarrassing when you recommend it to someone and then have to explain dhwnwnwnee.

The running on all four will never not be insane. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

#also I KNOW it did have some great underrated music #find my way back is on so many of my playlists #they also somehow gave us a masterclass slowburn #obviously don’t forget that one #teen wolf #ask

Absolutely in love with that moment where a character goes “I could be in love with you very easily.” I LOVE IT, okay, because it’s like,, this moment where someone actually stops and makes falling in love a choice, like they realize the direction that they’re headed in and decide that they like it, that yes this is a person they would like to be in love with, so this is allowed to happen actually.

Give me this realization in soft moments between good friends. Give me this realization in intense moments between people who are no longer quite enemies, but aren’t sure what they are. Give me this realization with a tinge of panic, because it would be so easy to fall in love with them, and they don’t actually want to want this, but they do. I want all the variations of this, please and thank you

hello question. what is your opinion on the Homo with a capital H Homoerotic relationship of the f1 tps. why are they fruitier than the twink drivers

they commit to the bit and i love it

whatever the hell toto and christian have going on is so hilarious. the silly little jabs they make at eachother. that line about how “it’s all for wikipedia anyway” that toto said about max breaking records and winning races that christian responded to later with something like “i know people think it’s just for wikipedia” or something. they’re insane. enemies to worse enemies 500000k slowburn.

and then the fact that totos wife is like nah they’re actually besties. they’re so fucking goofy.

for those who don’t know, christian horner is the red bull racing f1 team principle. he’s incredibly disney villain and married to ginger spice. toto wolff the the team principle for mercedes. he’s obsessed with pumpernickel and looks like he could have been a Disney villain but the wires got crossed somewhere. they Hate eachother because mercedes was on a winning streak and then redbull came and ruined their winning streak and now mercedes can’t make a car that goes fast. there’s also this great scene where horner tells toto “if you’ve got a problem change you’re fucking car” and i don’t have the link to that particular moment right now but someone please reblog with it.

also underrated was christian and cyril hating eachother during the whole engine thing

any book recs? looking for something to hold me over inbetween your updates! anything you’ve found yourself pulling inspo from for your fic or that you think a fellow levi fan would love?

hi!!! ofc, i've got plently of fic recs, i'm pretty sure i've read 80% of all levi fics on ao3 atp😭 I sadly have not had the time to read as many fics nowadays like I used to, but here are some of my all time favs!!

(also i apologise, my summary skills are terrible and so it's just me gushing over the fics for a whole paragraph🧎‍♀️)

Death's Door by SongsOfApollo

one of the first fics I read, and a fic that has literally never left my brain since then. It's amazing. It's very popular so I'm sure you've heard about it already if not read it, but if you haven't, it's a must read!! levi x doctor reader!

Dust, Diamonds by maokitty

the best way i can describe this fic is that it drove an iron stake through my heart multiple times, pulled it out, then delicately rearranged the pieces and stitched it back together with gentle fingers. take it how you will but after a certain chapter i stopped reading it bc it was too painful, and then came back two months later to finish it off AND I AM SO GLAD I DID.

A River Of Three Crossings by maokitty

this fic literally ruined my life it was so fucking good but its incomplete and hasn't been updated since 2020 i am SO SAD. but please read this, it's so good, so heart crushing and sweet and amazing I love it sm

ALSO I JUST FUCKING REALISED ITS THE SAME AUTHOUR WHILE WRITING THIS LIST😭

reciprocal sin by captain-hawks (@captain-hawks)

SO UNDERRATED!??! must read, i cannot say anything else but READ THISSS. its a kinky smutty oneshot so make sure you read the content warnings, but its sooo good😭 amazing writing too!

silver soul by oi_levi

sadly this one is incomplete and hasn't been updated since 2021, but it's brilliantttt. if you're craving some good post-war levi fics, then this one's really good!!

also read In the Land of Gods and Monsters by them for a fun time😊

a sip of sunshine by taomyou (@taomyou)

speaking of post-war fics, this one is amazinggg. super cute and fluffy, angsty ending for part 1 (😭) but I know for sure their next part will be worth the wait. also they've got a complete modern au fic called The Romance Of Reimbursements which is so fucking beautiful, definitely read this!!! (also mchs, acoc... yeah just read all of them tbh)

silver underground. by tothestrongones (@amywritesthings)

this one's a recent read, but omfg i cannottt get enough of it. absolutely love this, it's levi x underground reader, amnesia trope done right. 10/10 must read!!!

we all bleed red by littlerequiem (@littlerequiem)

also a recent read, but omfg this fic is so good. it's vampire au, victorian era, slowburn brilliant writing, and healthy communication!?!? no way. checks all the boxes for me😫

Percolate by heichoe

modern coffee shop au, its so good omfg. it's such a cute fic, classic grumpy levi, friends w benefits, lots of smut and the DRAMA gosh. i was so invested, it was so good. (also ur gonna need an account on ao3 to read the fic!!)

this is a story of the sea by shinzouing

this one is levi x erwin x reader (i read it for the levi x reader bc erwin was gonna die anyways lmao) but i fell in loveeee with it!! wonderful writing, amazing story, 10/10 angst & slowburn, a definite must read! (also 20/10 smut, it was so fucking good)

(also literally every fic by wellitcouldbeworse3 on ao3 is amazinggg, check them out if you haven't already. which i'm sure you have, and that is the only reason i haven't listed out all of their fics here😭 The Feeling's Mutual is my fav modern au fic of all time no questions asked)

THIS IS A JUST A FEW!!! if you want more, then feel free to ask, i will gladly rec more <33 and ty for reading my fic btw!! LOVE U LOADS🤗

Aaaand we’re back again with another TSAMS AU, this time The Last Guardian themed because it’s my favorite game and I love it sm and y’all should really check it out cuz it’s horribly underrated even though it’s amazing-

*ahem* Anyways- I introduce to the TSAMS tumblr community: Trico!Eclipse AU

The basic concept of this au is that Eclipse is somehow cursed and turned into a trico and is now stuck with a lost child and forced to work together with them in order to escape the ruins they’ve been trapped in and find a cure for his curse (so basically just the plot of the game but it’s a slowburn one sided enemies to friends *COUGH* dad/big bro Eclipse *COUGH* on steroids)

I’m considering writing a fanfic for this au, or at least some one shots but it all depends on my motivation. Though I will definitely be making more art for this au in the future as it is rotting my brain and plaguing my every thought—boy I sure do love it when I can’t think of anything other than my interests!

(Also the child character is currently unnamed so I’ll be making a list of name ideas so anyone feel free to make suggestions, or ask questions about this au, my inbox is always open :) )

(To quote my friend regarding the last image: “Moon’s world is about to get rocked” )

Also bonus close ups:

HallowReads Celebration

I'm not much of a graphic maker and I'm not great at making playlists for other people, so I decided to contribute to this lovely celebration in the way I usually celebrate fic writers in this fandom: Recs!

And listen, I know I have uhhh quite a few mutuals here. I'm not trying to leave anyone out. I love you all very much. I'm only making one of these though and there's only 4 questions lol.

My favourite fanfic I read this year

Lavender by @justagalwhowrites Description: An age-gap grumpy/sunshine friends-to-lovers (and eventually friends-to-lovers-to-enemies-to-friends-to-lovers) fanfic that starts pre-outbreak. Series is now complete and spans from Spring, 2000, through Fall, 2029, in the HBO timeline. My thoughts: It's hard to pick a favorite fic. I have read a little over 500 fics since April of this year. But this one has stuck with me so hard. I keep coming back to it over and over. It is beautifully written, heart wrenching, absolutely wonderful. The no outbreak AU will heal you from the trauma of reading the original version, but listen... it's worth it. The characters, the plot, the imagery, everything is so incredible. If you haven't read this... what are you doing?

A beloved fanfic with my comfort character

Celestial Navigation by @write-and-buried Description: dumped and drowning in a summer storm, you duck inside a coffee shop to hide from your broken heart. Covered in plants and hand drawn images over exposed brick, it seems like a slice of heaven. The owner brings you a blueberry muffin and a promise; you'll fall in love with him before the new year. My thoughts: Dieter is my comfort character, 100%. I love him with all my heart. This fic... It takes everything I love about the character of Dieter, puts him into an eccentric millionaire coffee shop AU, mixes in a little bit of that supernatural witchy vibe I love... and it stole my heart. I read this very very early on in my PPCU days and I have since read it 3 times. And I really don't do rereads often. This fic is absolutely beautiful. It's my fucking Roman Empire, man. I think about it at least daily.

A fanfic I wish more people knew about

Psychomanteum by @whatsnewalycat Description: You've recently taken on the customer-facing responsibilities of the small-scale cannabis bakery you and your late husband ran out of your apartment, which introduces you to occasional customer, Dieter Bravo. A friendship is sparked when you realize you have something in common: you've both died. What Dieter doesn't tell you about his near-death experience, though, is that it foretold his life with you. My thoughts: This is one of those fics you think would have 1000 notes and then you look and it has less than 200 on each chapter. This fic is criminally underrated. Psychomanteum is one of the main reasons I even started writing fanfic. I hadn't considered how deeply moving and beautiful a fic could be until I read this. I think I was originally drawn in by the spooky vibes and I was hooked immediately by the world building, the characters, the exploration of grief and trauma. I cannot sing this fic or aly's praises enough. Everyone should read this.

A fanfic with my favourite trope/AU

Be-All and Endor by @djarins-cyare Description: Languishing in a dull and lonely existence on the forest moon of Endor after travelling there to help salvage Death Star wreckage, a nearly fatal encounter with a mysterious bounty hunter out in the forest heralds an opportunity to utilise long-forgotten skills and develop something more profound than you ever thought possible. My thoughts: So my favorite trope is slow burn. This is... an exceptional slow burn. The tension is there pretty much right from the beginning, but it's like 25 whole chapters before the smut happens I think? Don't quote me on that but it's like nearly halfway in to a fic that is very, very long. On to why this is my favorite slowburn ever: The worldbuilding is beautiful. The characterization of Din is one of the best I've literally ever seen. Reader is incredible. Every choice made by the author is so smart and well-researched and planned out. The plot is fantastic, the characters are amazing, the imagery, the tension, the character development. If you love Din, you have to read this. It is beautiful.

A fanfic with my favourite trope/AU Part 2

I simply can't resist a M/M/F sex pollen fic

Of Gorgons and Gardens by @concussed-to-pieces

Description: a Death Watch-raised Mando that takes the Creed incredibly seriously and an Ezra that's well armed -- sex pollen in the form of a weird plant

My thoughts: I am a SLUT for sex pollen fics, so obviously that was excellent. I also love how it was like "oh the plant makes men want to fuck women" but hinted that neither of them would be particularly upset about fucking each other either. This fic is almost absurdly smutty (but also kinda sweet) in part one, and then part two was so sweet. Like yeah yeah horrible harrowing near death experience yada yada... the STUBBLE SCENE??? The PAIN KINK?? the TOUCHING?? I just about died. And then in part three we get my top all time kink PLUS Din and Ezra and Reader just being so sweet it hurts a little. I am feral for these boys UGH. If you like MMF, read all three parts. If you just like poor pining Din and some insane sex pollen that's a little more MFM than MMF, just read part one. Either way... this fic is insanely good man.

-------

I could and have recced so many fics. It was very difficult for me for to choose just these five, when the spreadsheet is well over 500 fics now. Check out my Fic Rec Masterlist for a comprehensive list of my recommendations.

Ngl. Kinda wished that Lockwood and Co was on BBC instead of Netflix. So atleast I wouldn't be this stressed over it being renewed or cancelled 😂 Oh just how relaxed I was watching His Dark Materials while not having to worry about a single thing. & we got 3 perfect seasons of it. That's also another super underrated series that deserves more love. Its another books to screen adaptation. Although I won't exactly recommend it to any Lockwood & Co viewers because they're completely different, pace-wise. But if you don't mind a more slower-paced story, why not give it a go? Will and Lyra is another slowburn ship that I love.

netflix’s defenders high school AU is coming so soon you guys 👁️ it’s more or less a breakdown of every possible dynamic / pairing in a high school setting but if enough people like it i’d be so game to specifically write fics while referencing lore.

i’ll say right now that matt foggy and karen DID become friends in a way similar to how they did in daredevil .. just without the dead man. i’ll also say underrated friendships like colleen and claire + colleen and jess have a lot of coverage because this fandom doesn’t talk about them enough. ironwing is also very canon ANDNANDAND kastle slowburn + frank and amy do in fact meet and maintain a similar bond:)

okay that’s all i’ll say for now. if you have any requests for duos you’d maybe wanna see featured, requests are so open.

52K! WHAT AN ACCOMPLISHMENT! ive been reading ttwww since it had 10 chapters and 2000 hits, i am so so proud of you. keep doing what you're doing, you are such an underrated writer on ao3 and i hope one day you get all the hype you deserve, which is the most ever.

my question is, why did you start writing fanfiction?

hey tennie! thank you so much, that means the world to me. your support >>>> everything. i am so grateful for the number of readers i have ALREADY, theyre literally the bestest - and considering the amount of talented writers on that website, im happy just to be considered as a semi-talented one <3

why i started writing fanfic... i feel like people start because they like a character or their relationship so much that it warrants personal exploration, rather than the exploration of the creators, and the same is probably true for me. i started with all jokes aside, a batjokes fic, and i cant even tell you how because i wasnt even that big of a batman fan - i just thought the tension between bruce's hatred for the joker and his no-killing policy was so gorgeously done, and wanted to see if he would still hate him if they met as civillians.

as for the tangled web we weave, my slowburn spideypool, that was done out of an admiration for peter's character and my emotional state at the time. i was thoroughly unhappy, and there was a line in into the spiderverse - "spiderman always gets back up" - that was uplifting when i first heard it, but upon a rewatch, it was just. SO ANNOYING. i thought it was the dumbest shit ive ever heard. what do you MEAN, he gets back up? its because he never felt the way i felt rn! when youre in that state of mind - unhappy, unhealthy, unenthused - you just project hatred and spite onto everything. the smallest things irritate you. the biggest things - happiness, recovery, redemption - annoy you too, because they seem so unattainable. and hateful, spiteful me decided that i would take that bitter, lonely, post-nwh peter and keep him trapped in that dark place until he suffocated. so i would have some company. i put him in that dark place. but he got up. then i put him in that dark place. and he still got up. after that, i put him in that dark place. he kept getting up. clones, heartbreak, ptsd, nightmares, he kept getting up. and after the billionth time that happened, i realized that i was following him. and tbh. one of the best decisions ive ever made was starting and finishing that 200k nightmare. my life is genuinely better because of it. and now me and peter are like, locked in bro.

there's sleeping with the enemy, too - succession au slowburn jegulus in a wizarding-business world, and bandit territory - fight club au with a politically radical wolfstar - and i would say those i started writing because im genuinely so interested in. its less of a character study and more of a character-in-the-environment study, and its a way for me to kind of practice writing, if you will, because swte has such an incredibly complex and intricate plot that its like pushing a rock uphill. ive literally never understood sisyphus more than when i was writing the 10,000 words divided into 10 portions of 1000 words of 10 different povs that chapter 17 of swte consists of. also personally, it is so incredibly difficult to establish chemistry between reg and james so its a good challenge!

#batjokes #bruce wayne #the joker #asks 🍡#asks #spideypool #spiderpool #peter parker #wade wilson #YES i compared writing indulgent fanfic to sisyphus' eternal punishment.. and what?#the tangled web we weave #all jokes aside #sleeping with the enemy #james potter #regulus black #sirius black #remus lupin #wolfstar #jegulus

Name the WIP that's been rotting in your drafts the longest.

Name the WIP that you want to share the most.

What character do you think is really underrated in the fandom?

congrats on 2k ‼️‼️💗💗

TY FOR THE ASK AND THE CONGRATS <3333 I APPRECIATE IT A LOT !!

As for your asksss, for my WIP that's been rotting the longest, it's a Jing Yuan fic inspired by that one manwha where the MC isekais as a crow! TLDR, reader reincarnates as a finch and it just goes into Jing Yuan and reader forming a bond (not romantic !!) and then trying to figure out how to turn reader back <33 honestly, i've been wondering whether or not to scrap this idea bc LORD IS IT GOING TO BE A LONG ONE

For WIP I want to share the most, I have an Aventurine oneshot coming up called "A Dangerous Game Called Love", where it's basically like a workplace romance where you're one of Aventurine's new subordinates and he slowly finds himself getting attached to you and before he knows it, he fell <3 it's a slowburn and honestly, i have NO idea when it's coming out because I. Am a slow writer unfortunately

and FINALLY !!! for the character i think is really underrated in the fandom ... IS IT ANY SURPRISE THAT I THINK LUOCHA IS HEAVILY UNDERRATED LIKE THE CONTENT FOR HIM IS SO LITTLE IT MAKES ME SAD :((( but other than him i'd say welt. like not even a romantic sense can we just say that welt as a character and the potential he has ???? LIKE THIS 80 YR OLD HONKAI IMPACT THE 3RD MAN IS BEING SLEPT ON IM TELLING YALL

2k follower event if you want to participate !!!

Hi!!

Um, so abt Louis/Moniepenny: tbh the idea came to me outta the blue! I was thinking of drawing Louis and Moniepenny together since they’re the only characters who wear glasses LOL but then my thoughts spiralled from there 😅

I know Moniepenny doesn’t show up all that much, but I love her sm, she’s one of my underrated favs 💗 also since Louis now heads MI6, I imagine he and Moniepenny would interact a lot more, and maybe fall in love slowly 👉👈💗 maybe Louis occasionally feels inadequate about his own skills compared to his brothers, and slowly opens up to Moniepenny about it. And maybe she knows what that feels like too (especially since she’s a woman and ppl would’ve underestimated her a lot, which may have made her question herself on more than one occasion). They then begin hyping each other up!! They work together more often, and we could maybe even have the classic “one of them gets injured in a mission and the other goes feral” 👀 and BOOM at that moment they realise they’re in love

With regard to Sherlouis, it could be considered enemies to lovers, right? I keep thinking of that one scene from Princess Mononoke where she holds a knife to Ashitaka’s throat and he falls for her lol. Louis holding a knife to Sherly’s throat, and Sherly is all puppy eyes. It could be a case of Sherly falls first, Louis falls harder? *puts on rose-tinted glasses fabulously* 🌹🕶️

Sorry I rambled, I was kinda excited to talk abt this 😅🌻🪻

Oh I love that like a slowburn coworkers to in love for them.

I'm imagining her venting her frustrations about how the mission to get Moran back went, and Louis gently reminding her that she's herself and not Bonde, and that there's nothing wrong with having different styles of working as an agent.

I'm also imagining Moran being super jealous of Louis when he gets back and he realizes 😂 Not because I see Moran as specifically caring about being with Moniepenny I sort of read those canon interactions as just general machismo on his part, but because I think he'd be sort of affronted that it was Louis lmao.

I think they could have a really sweet relationship; there could also be some point where Louis starts wanting to protect her and she has to remind him of the frustration he feels when was being coddled and not allowed to participate in anything so that she's allowed to have normal assignments 😂

Sherlouis:

YES I definitely consider it enemies to lovers. I'm ... pretty sure I haven't seen Princess Mononoke, because that does not at all sound familiar but also YES. Sherlock is great because while sherliam works well, I think he could fall just as hard for any of the brothers if the one to pay attention to him wasn't William. He just likes the Lord of Crime. He thinks Liam is the Lord of Crime... and he is, but he's not everything the Lord of Crime is, they all very much share in that role, and I think Sherlock would appreciate the aspects any brother brings to the role.

The only thing with Louis is that Sherlock is seen and then disregarded so often that I feel like he's sort of insecure about it. Something I've seen said on my sherlouis writing is that Louis ends up liking Sherlock despite himself in a way that just is not true for Sherliam, and I can't imagine Sherlock not seeing it. My Sherlock keeps causing problems in Poison Paradise because of that -- Louis is far to tsundere to openly admit to liking Sherlock, and Sherlock can tell there is conflict in Louis' interest.

But there is a lot of physical tension between them, partially because Louis has such extreme reactions to everything Sherlock does. There's this kind of unhealthiness about it that makes for a really interesting dynamic and a good story.

And I'm so glad you also see the beauty of masochist!Sherlock Holmes xD

speaking of cdnf fics do u have any recs…. i feel like ive read them all😔

OFCC!! my entire cdnf rec list is pretty short so even though i made one earlier this year ill probably repeat them all rn but here's my gospel:

when the king sleeps by lovedaze - Fairytale AU that i will campaign for until im dead SERIOUSLY

oxeye daisy by angelbride - this is a cdnf fic for people who care Way too much about cdnf. i am so deeply in love with this fic -- and considering its the ONLY cdnf longfic ive read that i loved, it has a very very special place in my slowburn heart..... no fic does what this fic does. PLOT. ROMANCE. DEPENDENCY !

The Worm King's Lullaby by realfriends - this one is hot off the presses and so satisfyingly placed/characterized. and we're all gonna flood the comments until realfriends writes more cdnf ok?

geyser by moobloom - SUCH a fucking classic, like an absolutely cdnf pillar. heartbreaking and does george's dream-scapes perfectly. the ending traumatized me for life

sleepwalking by yellow_sleeping_bag - LOVE THIS CONCEPT SOOOO MUCH forever and always thinking about this headcanon

greet my broken face by k_152 - this fic requires a smidgen of context so read the author's note but its the coolest prequel fic ive EVERRRR read like they introduced some ideas that i wish more ppl would adopt into their dsmp-verse lore interpretations

hypnotic. by NukaRapture - i tthink this might be the only happy cdnf fic and if its pwp well thats not my concern. also its good pwp. and it has amazing characterization IDGAFFF !

shards of glass and bone by bearold - this fic is viciously underrated IDC IF IM BIASED

Desiderium by Emilaa - ITS ABOUT THE CHESS METAPHORS.

and for posterity: my fics

#and when i tell you thats everything i MEWAN IT #a very good friend of mine recommended last breath of a dying world but i havent read that one yet ..... so maybe that one too #recs #dreamnotfound #long post #Im sorry i cant read more this post .... Mobile problems 😒#ask #and well if youvee already read all of these then welcome to my fucking hell

An uzugiyuu wip you say 👀

I have big plans for a slowburn (emphasis on slow) post-canon UzuGiyu fic! Like the most awkward courting you’ve ever seen while Giyu enchants Tengen with his complete lack of social skill. Because of course Tengen is going to fall first. I just love them so much, it’s an underrated ship!

Right now it’s mostly in the planning stage, but I do have some scenes mapped out, and some others kinda partially written.
