COC Day 8 - "Sick"

Sorry this is late. I honestly forgot I'd doodled this tiny little text ficlet. Just some randomness that popped into my head with this @carryon-countdown prompt.

Simon POV:

“I’m not sick.”

I sigh as I eye a wall full of homeopathic teas. Surely there’s something here, out of like 500 different herbal blends, that will help Baz out. I pick one up and read the label (like that will help). “You’re malnourished,” I murmur into my mobile as I read, “which I could fix, but you don’t want to bite me.”

I can hear Baz roll his eyes. “I’m fine, Snow. And I don’t get sick, so you don’t have to cure me.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Maybe this one? Is echinacea beneficial to stubborn blood-starved vampires? Maybe something with more iron in it. Maybe I should be stuffing supplements down his throat.

“I don’t get sick. I’m a dark creature of the night.”

I love how he uses that excuse like it isn’t at least partly responsible for his current condition. Prat. “You fainted.”

There’s a pause, then Baz mutters, “I took a strategic break from consciousness.”

I snort. I’m going to stuff him with iron supplements, then kiss him stupid. “You like green tea, right?”

Baz lets out a beleaguered sigh, which has a sort of honking cadence to it over the phone. “I’m not sick.” A pause. Then, “But I do like green tea.”

Right. Into the basket with that blend. “If I ‘took a break’ the way you did this morning, you’d have had me at Dr. Wellbelove’s within the hour.”

“That’s different.”

Red meat. I could do steak. I’m pretty decent at grilling. And if all else fails, Baz needs practice putting out fires, right? “Really not,” I say after a second. “I’m getting you protein powder, too.”

“That’s barbaric, Snow.”

“Oh, I’ll show you barbaric, Pitch,” I say with a smile. “But only if you drink your tea, and your protein shake, and top it all off with twice as many rodents as usual. And if you ask nicely.”

A pause. “I’m still not biting you.”

Was that hesitation? My altruistic desire to help Baz suddenly seems like a potential opportunity. I dump three flavours of protein powder into my basket, including one I know has the consistency of ground chalk. “Promises, promises, Baz.”

[ebbpettier]

what do you mean with your hc that simon was always a dragon?

okay so this is one of my deepest most self indulgent headcanons because i'm gay and i think he deserves more and sharper teeth but it's extrapolated from a bunch of different details in the series: 1. we don't know what kind of blood davy used in the ritual. lucy couldn't identify it, but it almost definitely wasn't human. killing a dragon is one of the worst things you can do in the WoM and i really think davy isn't above that, at this point. (in terms of what i think the ritual entailed, i don't think he would have killed an adult dragon, either. a son for a son.) 2. simon's false feather wings dissolved in a bloody mess, but his dragon wings did not. iirc, he also had to wish for them, and penelope pointed out that this is fundamentally Not How Magic Works 3. penny also theorized that simon was actually turning INTO a dragon at the moment he got his wings, unless i'm misremembering again? its been a while since my last reread of the series and i have a memory disorder bear with me 4. "you don't kill a dragon unless you're trying to open a portal to hell" davy what did you do. DAVY, WHAT DID YOU DO. 5. once magic stops working on simon at all/after he loses his magic, the wings don't disappear, which makes me think they weren't powered by magic in the first place; they were just a part of his body. 6. margaret almost immediately (probably falsely but still) identifies him as a Kitten. she straight up thinks he's a baby dragon. maybe he smells like one, or feels like one, but i feel like she would be the most qualified to like ... tell? simon insists he isn't, but she seems confused and even a little put off when he tries to say he isn't just a lost dragon-kit. 7. when he's going off his magic is described as very blistery and prickly and black and red, and he glows and smokes and smells like a forest fire. dragon coded as fuuuuck 8. i think it would fucking rule I've never quite decided if i want it to be dragon ancestry, or if he's some kind of changeling via the ritual*, or something else, but the reason i draw the sword of mages with a fancy hilt shaped like a dragon is because i also headcanon that it looks different for everyone who wields it. (in my Baz Is The Heir AU: he summons it as a spada da lato, light as a feather with a handguard that curls like fire in a windstorm, inset with little sapphires) and simon's just ALWAYS been that dragony. i want him to grow more teeth, and they keep growing so he either has to accept them or have them pulled. i want his nails to be hard and sturdy as iron and he just never notices because he's always used them as tools, and he thought everyone's were like that. he bites them off because they break clippers. i want the red scales around the second set of deltoids (the ones on his wings) to start slowly creeping down his back and over his shoulders over time. because i think it would fucking rule. *i subscribe to this one the most, tho. makes sense. also i feel like the mage WouldTM.

#simon snow #carry on #THIS IS LEVEL 2 TO ME BUT ALSO PURE HEADCANON #it doesn't really mean much for the story because simon would never learn of his true ancestry but #the slow-creeping changes that come with late-onset dragon puberty might freak him out and mess with his head a lot #no he doesn't breathe fire (but he's terrified that he'll sneeze and kill baz in his sleep for a while) #he has the sparkteeth but not the fire. the strikers but not the flint. #and he can GROWL and PURR #round 2 (nsfw) is ask me about the changes below the belt #spoilers: he does knot know whats happening AYYYYYY

In sfc Baz notes Simon hoarding all the pillows and then having to snatch one away as something common. Simon isn’t the type of bitch to do that to Baz because of a lack of consideration – the first thing I considered was Simon “conveniently” leaving himself as an option for Baz to use as a pillow (when Baz is resting on Simon’s chest/shoulder he notes “I’m always in the same place”) but then I noted this happens after Baz grabs a pillow for himself. So the process is: Baz snatches away a pillow, then he might or might not climb on Simon after a while to sleep half on top of him…

Then it hit me. The pillow Baz uses would smell the most like him (it would be one of the parts of the bed where his smell is the most concentrated). Simon has a huge thing for Baz’s smell. If Simon is hoarding all the pillows, it has to be because he’s already in bed and Baz isn’t yet (he’s not going to be taking a pillow away from Baz when he’s already in bed using it to hoard them).

So basically: when Baz is not in bed, Simon grabs Baz’s pillow to get Baz’s smell as close to his face as possible (to feel him as close as possible, when Baz himself is not there yet).

#simon snow #snowbaz #baz pitch #simon snow trilogy #baz x simon #baz grimm pitch #snow for christmas #I know hoarding has been noted as a dragon thing but I wanted to look at it more as a Simon thing #and doing things because he wants Baz (and wants to be close to him) is the most Simon thing in the world

Happy Sunday everyone! I’m quite shocked we’re 3/4 of the way through April. Where did this month go? On the other hand, it’s getting warmer and summer is around the corner, so bring it on!

I’ve got a snippet from Back and Back and Back, my time travel AU fic. Chapters 1 and 2 are written and half of 3 and 4 as well. It might be a while before I post, though, because I kind of want to have it all or mostly written first. It’s been a long time since I’ve written something not connected to a fest or event, so its nice having the luxury of time for this one. Here’s a bit of six year old Baz with his Dragon Man friend from Chapter 1 again:

“Jammie Dodgers? How’d you know those were my favorites?”

I smile proudly, even though I didn’t know that, but his bright smile and playful tone relaxes me.

“Would you like some?” I ask, stepping forward and holding the biscuits up to him.

“Thanks, Baz,” he says, reaching to take one and then wandering over to a fallen log to sit.

“It’s Basil,” I correct, following him over and sitting next to him on the log. He kicks his long legs out, crossing them at the ankle. I try to copy him and frown at how short my legs look compared to his. “Nobody calls me Baz.”

“Right, sorry,” he says, shaking his head with a smirk on his lips. “Keep forgetting.”

Wendy got an inspired recruitment, so she invited Connie's sister to join the colony! The only downside to this is that Emerald (formerly known as Wttkottyn) hasn't been converted to the Path of Animism yet. We'll get there, though.

The family resemblance is uncanny, though. I don't think I would have been able to differentiate between them if it weren't for the name tags.

Also, I managed to pawn Boomer off to the leader of the nominally friendly Viking faction. I don't think he'll be too thrilled (he's a straight, cold-blooded lizard being sent to marry a man on the ice sheet), but at least I don't have to deal with him anymore.

I'm-Not-Going-To-Count-These-Sentences Sunday

Thank you @aroace-genderfluid-sheep and @hushed-chorus for the tags! (Guess what hushed-chorus I did that thing we talked about.) Also thank you to everyone who has tagged me on other WIP-days! I really appreciate it <3

So... I'm not counting sentences this time. I write long sentences, and I make rabid use of sentence-extending punctuation. And I have this thing about posting excerpts that are semi-contained in some way. Plus it's going to take me forever to get this fic posted, so I gotta give ya'll something. THUSLY: Here have a bunch of words.

(I really should have pinned my bi-weekly updates on Wednesday, but OH WELL.)

Context: Baz POV, with Agatha in the chapel after midnight, being 17 year olds. Simon is out of the picture after Baz kinda sorta stole his voice with a tape recorder in fifth year.

“I never thanked you for saving me,” she said, with just a little too much effort at nonchalance. “You did, actually,” I said, not slowing, or sparing her so much as a glance. “You might recall how you resembled a hypothermic beached mermaid? You were quite free with your gratitude once you caught your breath. It was all very melodramatic.” There was a brief pause - possibly an attempt to work out whether my description of her was complimentary or not. Either way, it didn’t deter her. “I never got to thank you the way I wanted to,” she said, a hint of a whine working its way past her shoddily built facade. I didn’t answer right away as I fought down a sudden surge of irritation, one that threatened to trigger my more destructive tendencies - self-destructive, perhaps, but not exclusively so. The only thing worse than being considered a villain was being cast as a tragic hero - someone only misunderstood, just waiting to be saved. “Basil—“ she began, apparently ready to try something else. I stopped short, forcing her to halt both her forward movement and that regrettable demonstration of poor judgment. We were at the entrance to the chapel, now, and it was easy to crowd her against the cold statuary. “How exactly did you want to thank me, then, Wellbelove?”

Later it's entirely likely these two are going to put special effort into trying to forget any of this ever happened, because teenage mistakes are brilliant like that. You're welcome, Bazatha.

Also, super stoked to be working on a couple @caught-on-tape-fest podfics as well as cowriting with @ileadacharmedlife for the @carryon-reverse-bang. Wheeeee I can totally do this all! >.>

#very interesting to me how it’s always Simon AND everybody else/the others #Simon is always set apart #for Jessica she’s scared for the rest of the world and for Simon #Hal questions how Jessica is going to tell the other lanterns AND how she’s going to tell Simon #because Simon’s not just ‘everyone else’ to Jessica #there’s the world in danger and there’s Simon in danger and somehow for Jessica #those have become separate things (with somehow equal importance) #if not more honestly since Jessica’s first thought is for SIMON #SIMON in danger. before she reflects on the rest of the world being in similar peril #Hal’s first thought is how is Jessica going to explain this to *simon* #like he recognizes that’s the person who comes first in the people Jessica will want/need to tell #and like could I write a whole thing abt Simon understanding bc Simon & Jess keep continuing somehow on parallel paths #and the significance that they BOTH become yellow lanterns in different timelines #like yeah but this is too long already #simon baz #jessica cruz #hal jordan #also one last note abt how Simon just pops into Jessica’s mind #‘wait till Simon hears abt this’ #makes you wonder if she wasn’t thinking the same thing the whole time she was alone on that station #makes you wonder if—without the ring for company—she just started talking to Simon instead #‘wait till Simon hears abt this’ ‘you’ll never believe this Simon’ ‘did you see what I just did Simon’ #hmmm #meta #simonjess #simon x jessica #green lantern annual #*panelsandpages

okay, okay but what if Simon becomes obsessed with his boyfriend's ex? and that ex is Baz? does that fic already exist? I'm kinda gnawing, snarling, drooling over this idea of snowbaz meeting thru an ex situation.

#this post brought to you by my sleep-deprived brain #it's so late #but like this would be juicy af yeah? #I wanna write it so bad #just...simon trying to find out every single detail about his bf's ex #not cuz he's jealous and insecure #but because he's obsessed and thirrrrrrsty #but ofc it takes him forever to figure that out #and like his bf and baz are still friends (or maybe similar social circles?) so simon meets him and runs into him on the regular #it'd be so messy #should I write this??? #I'm fixated y'all #but maybe that's the 1am talking #snowbaz #simon snow #baz pitch #carry on fanfiction

I have so many Simon thoughts and I can’t believe the one to lick them all off was this: but would he draw the line at pork?

Just saw this ask now so apologies if it's been sitting in my inbox for a while!

Quick mention here that I'm not Muslim myself and most of my (limited) knowledge comes from talking with friends irl and the internet

but i believe Simon wouldn't eat pork. I don't think it's something he's ever really tried, especially growing up and living in Dearborn, which has one of the highest Muslim populations in the US, there wouldn't be a super high presence of it (I'm assuming) or social pressures surrounding eating it from his peers, who im assuming are also predominantly Muslim from what we know of his friendships precanon.

To be honest, I think the religiously prohibited substance he'd be most inclined to/likely to have consumed at some point to be alcohol. I mean when we meet Simon, he's fallen on hard times, like he's lost his job and turned to stealing cars and feels like he's let down his family and community, especially at least after the events that follow with him getting the ring the way he did. I'm not saying here that I think he did drink before we meet him in canon, but I think it's more likely to have happened than him eating pork, especially with the social pressures and societal depiction of alcohol the way they are.

Simon and his relationship with religion is something very interesting to me (that I admittedly know very little about) as there definitely seems to be a contradiction in some of his actions, with Simon quoting the Quran at Guy and talking about how much his religion means to him one page, and then of course having a tattoo that also means a lot to him (but is banned by his religion) at the same time. I think this more complex relationship with religion is something very human about Simon as a character, as people and their relationships with religion are oftentimes complicated and not cut and dry. It does make it difficult for his fans though as theres a lot we dont know, as Simon's relationship with religion is one I think could really use more exploration on page, especially in regard to this contradiction and his relationship with the rules of Islam as a whole.

#pork in particular is something i don't really see simon having any relationship with at all to be honest growing up in a home and #surrounded by a community that laregely doesnt eat it #and of his own religion i dont see it in particular being some #thing he would feel inclined to eat at any point. especially with when he grew up and the abuse he recieved because of his religion that im #sure pork played a role in as one of the main things people know about like islam and dietary restrictions and rules. #but thats my take on it i suppose #coming of course from someone who isnt a member of the religion and is mainly going off of general knowledge his character background and a #bit of research ive done on the area #anyways as always if im off base here someone let me know but this is the impression i got in terms of this question #thanks for the ask though! #sorry if it was sitting there for a while i never got a notification #answered #simon baz #blah
