went down the rabbit hole of my own ao3 today and decided to reflect upon my works ye mighty and despair as an exercise in self understanding:
it chapter two time travel fic - this one has problems in that i was nineteen and a shut-in at the time and didnt know how real life worked and wasnt funny. but it also has some very good things such as the theme is good. good bev stuff. i was so MAD at this movie lolllz... overly sappy and sentimental.. gets real weird and fantastical for no good reason but i dont mind that. STOP SWEARING SO MUCH.. not "well" written but not poorly written either + has its moments 7.4/10
the fool - unfortunately i will never in my life be able to top this due to it being a product of an early pandemic induced fugue state and i just have to accept that. it fucks so severely hard i't's difficult to comprehend. fully formed like athena. deserves 10 million billion hits. sometimes ill have bad self esteem and then i'll chance back upon this and be like Nvm im a genius...... there are like two bits that could use some revision but honestly thats it. "me being stupid is a foundational literary lens" - i remember saying this at some point. 9.5/10 i was so real for all of this
noli me tangere - i dont like this anymore. it really suffers from following the timeline so closely and retelling a bunch of boring administrative shit and has too many threads. the writing is not very good either frankly apart from the beginning. bland. too long. i had a lot of Ideas but.... 6.1/10
the body is a blade - honestly the thing about this one is that it should be 800x more fucked up and evil about everything. i should have let it be scary and fraught and less overtly romantic. i think i struggle with that in fic tbh i always come at it with too much of a wish fulfillment lens stfu bitch i want them to drink each others blood and throw up everywhere. writing is mostly good though and the structure works even tho there is no plot. 7.8/10
random ass stranger things fic from last year i dont want to talk about - i was having a bad 6 months when i wrote this but you cant tell because it does hold up mostly. i mean it's completely bonkers and has major plot conveniences but it's trying to emulate stranger things so you must allow it. i think the duffers could learn a lot from me personally (insane). dusty my best friend dusty. one thing about me is thtat there's gonna be a damn road trip. the writing? IS GOOD. i love BANTER. will also never get recognition due to rarepair problems.. im used to that. i like that i was basically like And fuck found family too btw. theres nuance in this and hard complicated feelings! neat! why was i doing all that for this? i didnt have to. REAAALLLLY didnt have to. 8/10

We'll get humiliated globally (again) when people learn we call the Indians (Asians) "Indi" (Ινδοί) and the the US Native Americans "Indiani" (Ινδιάνοι) 😂 I love how our linguists TRIED to separate the two in good will but... stopped midway??? Yeah dude congratulations, you added an -áni in the end, I am sure that doesn't allude at all to the indigenous American population being mistaken for Indians 😂
(we also use the "Native American" identification but the Indiani remains as a description)

do you ever just have an accident that's SO comical you can't even get upset about it
specifically—i was having soup and i had the bowl perched on the arm of my chair, which honestly is usually a pretty stable configuration, i do it all the time, but idk, i turned to get my tea and maybe i knocked it, maybe the movement just shifted the cushions, but anyway the bowl fully upended across the rug and—into my waiting slippers
and honestly i would have liked to be very sulkily annoyed—that had been my dinner! and suddenly most of my dinner was gone, and in its place: an enormous mess to clean up!—but. what can you do but laugh, in the face of: slipperfuls of soup

cant lie i think seeing someone give an excellent performance and then look me dead in the eyes when i did my followup and go "wow you really are a screen actor huh" may have given me way too much confidence vis a vis selling a narrative by being on a screen

because of your last matthias and theo post i wanna ask: are your ocs like parties?
Tumblr media
i believe you're asking what mattodore are like when they're at parties, right? or if they like them? i'll answer both just in case
cw for mentions of drug use and child abuse
well... both theo and matthias are frequent partiers. matthias actually throws these very large and extravagant private parties every fortnight. they're not, like... publicized, but if you know about them, then you know about them. theo on the other hand goes to a lot of gay bars and parties that get talked about at his college. theo goes to yale, so... as you can imagine, the college parties he goes to are um. a special brand of theatrical. he's been to matthias's parties before officially meeting him, actually. he went with a um... friend <3
neither of them actually like parties, though. theo uses parties to numb his mind (well... along with the drugs) and fill the void left from a childhood of neglect. the attention he gets while partying makes him feel good for a short while, but the come down from the intoxication and the high of attention is always very rough for him. and matthias throws them for the bodies — as in, all those people in his home, all the life... he saps at it like it's proof he's a Real Boy and... in a way, it makes him feel wanted. he does actually enjoy defiling his old family homes by throwing debaucherous orgies in them, though. lmao.
at parties, theo is always covered in glitter. he's phantasmal, barely even there in all the purples and blues. theo goes all out at parties, in bars, and he'll take anything he's given. he's addicted to ecstasy more than anything, and he's given it most often from his dance partners. theo really likes getting lost in the crowd while dancing. it makes him feel free. as a child, theo wasn't allowed to move around much, to fidget, to breathe too loud, or be otherwise unsightly and unrefined... so in a way he treats dancing like an act of rebellion. he also feels the most attuned with his own body while dancing. he gets... very melancholic at parties. outwardly, he gives no sign of distress, but if he hasn't taken something to really get him out of his head then he'll begin to feel the insidious loneliness seeping back in. he dissociates a lot at parties, especially when he's touched without expecting it. theo can get very talkative while partying, partly from the effects of whatever it is he's on aiding his honesty, but also partly from the electric feel of all that attention... he just starts speaking whatever's on his mind and stops holding himself back. theo is naturally magnetic... people want to be around him and with the way he talks... well, his voice is very hypnotizing. he draws everyone's attention. unfortunately for theo, he's more attracted to what's not good for him than what is. he always ends up going along with some........ relatively horrible people. he can recognize it too, he's not unaware... in fact, theo is exceptionally observant. he's smart and insightful and can read people very, very easily. it's a self-defense mechanism he had to learn from a childhood of physical abuse... even small micro expressions are fed through a megaphone to his brain. so he knows who the people he hooks up with are... even when he's intoxicated, he can still sense it... but he's self-destructive. he's trying to harm himself, subconsciously of course, but... well... a slap in the face will always feel more normal to theo than a kiss on the cheek.
at parties, matthias is always at the center of it all, wine in hand, shirt undone, hair thoroughly run through by multiple sets of hands. matthias is a hedonist, so he's uninhibited and unashamed and trying and doing whatever makes him feel good. he's charming, but snaps on occasion before covering it with a smile and a flirtatious slip of his hand down the back of a neck, along the shell of an ear. matthias is surrounded by people all the time, but they're obsequious and pawing. his money, his body, the masquerade of his character... all lapped at greedily, but no one ever really wants him when the party's over; he shows too much of who he really is for that. he puts on an act, of course... but there's a sort of gap between how matthias talks to people vs. how other people talk to people. matthias spent his childhood learning how to behave from his father's library of books. academic, stuffy, verbose, violent... some banned books. he hadn't interacted with another child until he was eleven or so... and by then he'd developed a very nasty personality. his best friend, imani, definitely helped aid a slight change in personality as he aged (not intentionally, btw. just in the way that all friends do), but your teen years can only reshape your childhood development by so much... so. there's something off about him, though he does put on a good show. if you're around matthias when he's silent for long enough, you'll feel a creeping sensation along the back of your neck and a little on edge. prey vs. predator. even when he's gone away from one of the parties with a sexual partner(s) and he's taking very good care of them, the moment the act is done... yeah. the men he sleeps with will want to leave. even the men who come back to him do so cautiously. parties leave matthias feeling just as hollow as he was before plying himself full of wine and lust. he can't find what he's looking for in them.
when they're together at parties... hm. it depends on whether or not they're dating. if it's early in the story, then theo doesn't pay any attention to matthias. theo doesn't actually, um... like men like matthias very much. the leader of the herd types, you know... theo is generally avoidant of anyone who seems to have any amount of authority. so he'd be as far away from matthias as possible. matthias, on the other hand... theo is exactly his type. soft cheeked, eye makeup, morose, and very intelligent and interesting... matthias is watching him like a hawk the second theo enters the room. but he wouldn't approach for a while. he likes to take his time.
if it's when they're already together, then matthias would've been the one to escort theo to the party. theo goes where he wants and matthias will follow after him, or, if theo tells him to give him some space, matthias will stay nearby but find other things to occupy himself with... until he eventually drifts back to watching theo. he's very obsessive. it's actually something theo has a hard time managing, like... sometimes he just needs matthias to step back kdjdhkh but theo is very into pda, so he never sends matthias away for too long unless he's with his party friends (who all dislike matthias on principle <3). with matthias, theo craves the comfort of physical touch. so they're very wrapped up in each other, even if they're surrounded by people. matthias will generally stay sober because he's very rigid about never losing control of himself... he does drink some, but never too much. at most he'll get tipsy, but he gets uh... very intense and weird when tipsy. so. best to avoid it. again, teenage friendships can only do so much in the face of childhood development. theo on the other hand actually feels more comfortable losing himself when matthias is with him, so... he gets messy frequently. he doesn't do drugs around matthias (or... not when matthias can see it, at least), but he'll drink like a sailor in lieu of his favored self-destructive habit. matthias likes to dance with theo. he and imani had to go to/through cotillions and etiquette lessons in their boarding school, so matthias likes to teach theo ball dances and show off. theo enjoys playing drinking games, the more childish they are the more enjoyment he gets from them. he's also very competitive and really good at beating matthias. he gloats and matthias finds it very endearing... he likes losing to theo.

We wanna be more open about system and fictive stuff so hi! Its Riella and I am jamming <3 we've got a bit of a rotating front right now but I'm hoping to stick around long enough to write some stuff! Debating between getting down some backstory, using the stored-up writing prompts, or just making some fluff <3
The Crane Wives has some certain things on my brain, so... some backstory for my source character might be in order.
As always, freely open to asks about myself, the system, my source character, anything! (I know we've been asking that a fair bit lately but we always feel it's better to clarify that we're happy to answer than not to! <3)

hi! so I had an early seasons spencer reid request. it's his first day at the BAU and the reader is so taken by him, she has constant puppy eyes and he mentions about needing a coffee and the reader simply gives him her coffee cup and then morgan and emily are like 'you're whipped'
You've only just sat down at your desk with the heated cup, warmth seeping through the cardboard walls and tingling your palms. Emily, JJ, and Garcia all have matching cups, courtesy of the coffee bar three floors down.
As fate would have it, you're excruciatingly close to taking your first sip of the sugary brew when you hear the new recruit, Spencer Reid, pipe up from his own desk just across from yours.
"Agent Y/L/N," He calls respectfully, and you pause in raising the cup to your lips. There's steam escaping the drinking slot in the lid of the cup, but that's not why your cheeks are flushed.
"Hm?"
"Where'd you get that coffee? I didn't see any in the kitchen. Is there a cafe nearby, or...?"
"There's a coffee bar on the fifth floor," You're internally grateful that you're not stumbling and stuttering over your words like a bashful teen, even if there's butterflies running rampant around your stomach, "But we got the last of this batch, it takes them a while to clean the machine and start brewing more."
His face falls, only slightly, but it's noticeable to you as you study his face with rapt attention. Immediately you feel your stomach plummet, and you ramble to remedy his disappointment, "But- uh, here! You can just- have mine." You stand abruptly, reaching over to place the cup on his desk, "I haven't had any yet. And I probably shouldn't, I, uh, I had some earlier and if I have more I won't sleep tonight."
Spencer blinks bewilderedly at the coffee cup now sitting on his desk, and you notice with a different kind of sinking feeling in your stomach that you've attracted the attention of both Prentiss and Morgan.
"Oh. Thank you," Spencer murmurs, clearly taken aback, but grateful all the same, "Are you sure? I- I can wait, if you want it."
"No, take it," You sit back down, trying desperately to retain some grace despite your rather hasty and forward display, "We'll call it a welcoming present."
His cheeks tinge slightly pink, and his lips flatten into an endearingly awkward grin.
"Thanks," He repeats, reaching for the coffee and surely feeling the same warmth you'd felt, "Is there sugar in here?"
"Lots," You nod, and he raises it eagerly to his lips.
"This is exactly how I make it," He decides after evaluating the sip, and you have to clench your fingers tightly to your palm in order to contain a rather large grin.
Once the conversation dies down between the two of you you turn your head back to your desk, even if you'd rather gaze at the new hire all day. It's with shaking fingers that you begin typing on your keyboard again, but an email notification at the lower right corner of the screen catches your eye.
Sender: SSA Emily Prentiss
Subject: Whipped
You click on it with furrowed brows, the term whipped meaning something grotesque in your line of work. Instead of a case file, however, you find a simple message, 'Next time, why don't you just take a sip and kiss it into his mouth? That might be less obvious.'
