YELLING AT YOU OH SO AFFECTIONATELY i need to scream but I will spare you from the all caps

your fic!!!!! is!!!! beautiful!!!! it reminds me of EVRYRHING GOOD and it reminds me of such happy times in my past and it smells like this bakery but then again to me everything good smells like baked goods but YOUR FIC!!! CRADLES IT. it has become my comfort fic and gaHHkfhsjak. I’m sl normal about it I need to chew your writing. chews it. I’m chewing it.

I KEEP. LIKE. quoting it too!!! like a lot!!! its just too good and is the first fic in a while that has made me smile so many times and audibly giggle. the jokes are very very funny and you capture the turts so wonderfully and I am Going To Go Insane about how you write ninpo.

sorry for yelling jn your ask box I just finished ch30 and I saw the tumblr link and im like Aight. ANYWAY THANK YOU for this fic I am cradling you /pos /pos /pos eueueue

AAAA TY!!

i did my best to make the fic as funny and in character as possible! in make, the only reason i made it aside from wanitng that good ole crossover "hey wtf" was that the rise characters were always boiled down to things that they werent (and i could go onto a whole rant about how fandom characterization is so far removed from their actual characters that it is the sole reason i dont really interact much with the fandom and make my own content but thats not what this is about) so i am VERY glad that you enjoy how i write them!! i really wanted a chatfic that was in character as well as funny and im so glad i pulled it off!

and YES the ninpommmmm i could go Onnn but i already made a post about it so i shall refrain lmfaoo

dont be sorry about yelling in my ask box i loved to see it! thank YOU for sending it! cradles you back

#ask #tired-lamb #ok wait maybe i lied and have more to say about fandom characization #bc fandom twins are my Enemy #and like if i speak i am in trouble but i DO belive that its bc of how popular the hc of leo being gay is and the projection of fans #that his character has in some aspects gotten twisted (this goes also for non aroace ppl hcing donnie as aroace to a certain extent) #which is NOT to say that its a wrong or bad hc at all and i myself am queer and hc all the turtles as queer #but i do think that there are a lot of steryotypes in leo (and donnies) fandom portrayals #and this shows up pretty heavily in chatfics (which is to say almost entirely in them + certain fandom jokes) #wherein they make leo Very fashionista slay queen beyonce #which rise leo is - despite being fairly flamboyant and confident - just Not like At All #and futhermore donnie has MULTIPLE instances of showing care and affecion #and he is SO hyperexpressvie with his facial features #his tone just isnt Always The Best #and when hes concerned you KNOW hes concerned bc his brows scrunch up and his eyes get wide and his voice gets all soft #and he doesnt HATE physicall affectiom #and in fact in one ep he INITIATES a group hug #but he prefers it on his own terms #and its not RARE for him to say i love you or give affection in different ways #and to a lesser extent i see this also with raph and mikey #very heavily with mikey always havign a perfect handle on his emotions #and being this sweet innocent uwu bean #im really just not the biggest fan of how some ppl took the dr feelings bit and RAN with it ykno?? #and in gen raph is actually the most on point but there are still instances where some things are meh #and sometimes i fall victim to that too and OOCness isnt a death sentence ofc but it rubs me The Wrong Fucking Way with leo and donnie #they arent snarky sarcastic cool guys theyre Losers. leo is quippy and donnie is a doofus and no one gets them right

[hua-fei-hua]

normally chatfics never survive my extremely potent filter cocktail, even if they're not tagged as chatfics bc they're normally also tagged with one of the other 200 things i have automatically filtered, but last night one managed to escape unscathed, and it's like how like the 0.1% of germs that survive hand sanitizer are the most dangerous bc it's like literally the most cursed thing ever, and it has so little metadata it's almost impossible to filter out without getting rid of shit i want to keep

#bc i love suffering i read a part of it and it was by far the most mean-spirited shitty chatfic i've ever read #and it was also kind of racist which did frankly kind of shock me. like woah there this is a fantasy world why are we referencing #real countries in a frankly kind of racist thing to say. blorbo would never fucking say that what the fuck #i have work soon... boohoo #花話

[pinkautist]

i recently re-read (and caught up with) a crossover fic for persoba 3 and persona 5, and it is. SO GOOD. once i'm done with playing persona 3 fes, i want to draw some stuff for the fic 😈

#hee hee hoo hoo #there were so many good scenes #the writing is SPECTACULAR #i think one of my favorite things is seeing how the writing style evolves with each update #and seeing the writer's passion in the parts that they were the most excited to write #they nailed all of the characters even when writing from each character's pov #and they also include some chatfic which i LOVE

[ajrainbows]

turns out the best way to start writing again is to stop caring about what others think and to just write whatever sounds fun

#chatfics my beloved <3 #i love writing dialog and thats literally all a chatfic is #trying to portray a charas personality thru the way they type.... i love it so much #just. AAAAA #so much fun #but also the lack of sleep might be making me a lil giddy

[coffeeflavored-tears]

new tici sequel chapter!!! going insane!!!! it is 4am!!!!

#if you don’t know tici is a fic i really like and it’s very important to me as a person #i know chatfics are looked down upon and all but holy shit it’s so good and also i don’t give a shit #it hasn’t been uploaded since like may?? so i’m like fucking stoked #update i read it :D i love them :D

[milimeters-morales]

video compilations of Spider-Man is one of my fav things to have in a fic. Like outsiders making threads on him on forums, and not necessarily chatfics but they talk about people tweeting/talking about Spidey online is genuinely something i wish there were more of!

#spider man #spiderman #not any spidey in particular bc i love them all for this #also i don’t really like chatfics bc anytime they try to have anything serious going on it just doesn’t land for me #and they’re usually ooc :/ but it’s whatever lol ill read what i can get #m&amp;m posts

fernando alonso (fa14)

the breakup and makeup series (pro wrestler!ofc)

time to rock and roll, fic: the first time beatrice staedtlander and fernando alonso had broken up. (hc) ♡

heaven, smau: back in 2000s, fernando alonso and beatrice anastasia 'trish' staedtlander were every racing and wrestling fans' couple. years after, trish alonso became a mother and a wife... and the grid's crush of the season. fernando was certainly not happy so what's a better way to remind everyone that he was hers? (f, g, h)

from the ground up, smau: tino and tiago alonso were the twins that trish had given birth to at the age of 40, and everyone understood now why she didn't make it to the 2024 canadian gp. (f)

look what god gave her, smau: beatrice 'trish' alonso survived fernando's messy image better than anybody did. (f, g, h)

bonnie and the fame

maneater, smau: bonnie catherine sutton was carlos sainz's ex-girlfriend who returned to the f1 scene as a different woman. turns out, she's fernando alonso's fiancée (f)

oliver bearman (ob8)

ice ice baby, smau: kimi raikkonen's daughter romania raikkonen debuted in formula one with her friends AND it's safe to say that the iceman doesn't like ollie that much.

jenson button (jb22)

pride and pettiness (x british!actress!ofc)

one, 2004: in which, ada and jenson met for the first time.

the mr. darcy type, smau: much like the popular love interest, jenson should have known better than to say things that wouldn't impress a woman he grew interested in. OR ada abbott made sure that he worked hard for her time and attention. (f) ♡

shunt the hell up! (x hunt!driver!ofc)

shunt your lovers, kiss your enemies. smau: it was funny how enemies can be your teammate AND your lover at the same time. OR jj hunt, the daughter of the late james hunt, was jenson's biggest rival until a certain baby predicament cost her her entire racing career. (g) ♡

other works

affection, blurb: in which, jenson learned that he should just say it without being a little too drunk.

pierre gasly (pg10)

newsflash, smau: ensley soleil doesn’t like playboys. too bad, pierre gasly’s down bad for her (attention and love). (f, g, h)

odds, fic: their timing was always wrong, maybe that's why pierre should consider making it even for the two of them as she writes songs about him and their courtship. ★

lowkey, smau: fans thought that pierre moved on from ensley four months after publicly declaring his (love?) for her. funnily enough... (f, g, h)

indigo, chatfic + smau: there's really no reason for pierre gasly to be jealous over some man that ensley wrote 'high school in jakarta' about. not when she wrote one or more songs about the frenchman. (f) ♡

high school in jakarta, fic: meeting ensley’s close friends would also mean that he’d have to meet her high school sweetheart, who he believed he couldn’t compete against until ensley ensured that his two-day attendance wouldn’t be spoiled by some guy who couldn’t let go of some memories she couldn’t even remember. ♡ 

dancing with the devil, smau: ensley soleil doesn't care about what people are saying about her relationship with pierre especially now that she's married to him. (f)

lewis hamilton (lh44)

where the bad girls are (kpop idol!ofc)

lifted, smau: lewis is married to a kpop idol who happened to be one of the girls to shape the image of female groups in the korean pop community.

crowned couple (x miss universe!ofc)

the couple of the universe, smau: lewis is a careless being this season and everyone's wondering why.

melody series (x performer!ofc)

summary: with her sharp eyes focused on her audience, a burlesque performer who went under the name of melody returned to rythme romantique, an entertainment lounge which exclusively caters to the wealthiest people of monaco — or in this case, to the people with a status that are recognized by all. her three exclusive performances were meant to be a closure for her connections in the principality. still, a certain formula one driver saw it as an opportunity to reconnect with his former flame after two years of her absence. felicity vos learned that this was a rich man’s world and that he could do whatever he wanted, but she also realized that the agreement they settled on years ago was corrupted the moment he expressed his love for her. 

one, million dollar man: monaco was a world of glitz and glamour that she left two years ago. returning to the principality clearly was a huge mistake as she found herself talking to the man who swore to nothing but his love for her.

two, this is what makes us girls: "decorum isn't something you can buy with money or fame." or what did lewis really want from her and why did he show up on the second night of her performance?

arthur leclerc (al12)

the scheming schumachers, smau: sunny schumacher is mick's cousin and what does a family do? they attract arthur leclerc to get him away from his best friend, who happens to be mick's girlfriend. thankfully, the schumacher cousin is something of a welcome distraction for the monegasque.

charles leclerc (cl16)

the leclerc boys series (x hearth sister!ofc)

debunking drama, smau: prequel to of long lines and names; aimee hearth, the mclaren media manager and one of the famous hearth sisters, was rumoured to be dating lando norris. a certain monegasque's baffled reaction became a trending topic in twitter as he counteracts the rumour with an instagram post of his lover. (f, h)

of long lines and names, fic: five kids with (almost) five names under six years. OR the three pregnancies that charles had witnessed told him how motherhood and memories could come in two sets of twins and a boy that looked so much like him. (f)

the leclerc daycare, fic: before his last set of twins were born, charles had to watch his boys on his own- not exactly by himself when he's got esteban and pierre acting as his right hand men. (f) (1/3 of daddy, debriefed!) ♡

about names, scenario fics

summary: extension to of long lines and names and the leclerc daycare; charles and aimee's boys and their names go hand in hand OR times when the couple had to tell their kids that their names were signs of love and respect for their namesakes.

one, an amazing boy with an amazing name: hervé's anger left his parents confused after he refused to be called by his first name. thankfully, his mamé pascale had an easy access to his heart that eventually led to an answer to his sadness.

two, the wingman of maranello: jules leclerc learned two things as he travelled to italy with his father: he had an uncle named uncle teague and uncle teague had a best friend that was once charles' godfather.

other pieces

"slut", smau: charles' ex trashed his new girlfriend a while ago, but too bad he wasn't really into the thought of making music with anyone but lou villar.

breaking curses not hearts, smau: frankie bardot atkinson was also known for her curse in the film industry. after breaking her long streaked curse and finally won an oscar, was it finally charles' time to break his curse at monza gp?

kevin magnussen (km20)

family ties, smau: lando norris forgot that his brother-in-law is in the grid with him and lola norris magnussen couldn't help but make of her brother for it.

lando norris (ln4)

lover era (x alessandro sister!writer!ofc)

london boy, smau: nicola 'cola' alessandro moved to britain and what's a better way to introduce yourself to england than taking a trip around with a certain mclaren driver? (f, g, h)

i think he knows, smau: grazia nichols published her debut novel based off formula one, and a fan could have sworn that the the book bf - nolan langford - was based off of lando's character as a driver altogether. (f, g, h)

✿ honey, honey! series masterlist - lando norris x ofc (honey-sue lewis) ft. sidemen ★

f1 drivers (general)

✿ 9 to 5 series masterlist - f1 grid x ofc (lester alessandro) ft. fictional wolff kids

not!aziraphale: it's lovely here. I can see why you enjoy it so much

crowley, looking around, distracted: yeah

aziraphale, walking with a companion who is just david tennant looking like peter vincent from fright night: ah, crowley, fancy seeing you here

crowley: ...

aziraphale, somewhat smug: as you can see, my friend and I were about to indulge in a picnic *holds up a basket*

not!crowley, gestures: this is the one you were telling me about?

aziraphale, dismissive: yes. we're no longer on speaking terms. are we crowley?

crowley, narrows his eyes: we were just gonna have a picnic actually

not!aziraphale, confused: I thought-

crowley, summons a picnic basket: yep. c'mon *takes not!aziraphale's arm and pulls him away*

not!crowley: ...

aziraphale, unfazed: shall we?

-10 minutes later*

crowley & aziraphale: *sitting just a few meters apart with their companions*

aziraphale, loudly: I am having a lovely time. thank you for joining me

crowley, also loudly: it's finally nice to have someone I can really talk to. we have so much in common

not crowley & not!aziraphale: *glance at each other awkwardly*

#aziraphale: can you believe they ran off together? what are the odds? / crowley: ... #aziracrow #ineffable husbands #good omens #good omens 3 #ineffable chatfics #originally I was gonna have aziraphale with mr brown but then someone mentioned a not!crowley and I couldn't resist

While I have a soft spot for queerplatonic!zolu, I love all forms of Zolu. They are soulmates, your honor. Give me all the Zolu out there. Also people need to write more Zolu fanfics and not just one shots. Give me a long slow burn Zolu with angst and fluff. Give me a chatfic with Zolu. Give me a timetravel fix it with Zolu (where they save ace). Just give me soulmate au Zolu where they don’t realize they are soulmates but everyone else realizes it. Give me all the Zolu. Enemies to lovers Zolu, forbidden romance Zolu, Romeo and Juliet Zolu (but they don’t die in the end because fuck that)

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE HOW YOU DRAW TINKY HE LOOKS SO ADORABLE AND JUST THE WAY YOU DRAW HIM MAKES ME VERY VERY HAPPY <333

Also very much thankful for all the tinkoffski content <333 there really should be more of it 🟨💛🐐

Awwwwww!!!! Thank you so muchhhh!!!!!

I'm glad you like how I draw the silly guy ♡♡♡ here's a silly doodle of him btw

Also, yeah, when it comes to crackships, if no one else is making the content, sometimes you gotta just take things into your own hands.

Side tangent:

I gotta say, I can't really do that fanfic-wise (i rarely ever finish what I try to write), and it saddens me that 2 of the 5 fics for the ship are rated E cuz I don't read E fics as a general rule. There's just so much untapped potential for insane shenanigans and sillyness, and I don't love the more serious(?) take on it. That could just be me, though. I'm very ace. Though ihavenoideamanokay's chatfic is absolute comedic gold, and I am thrilled to see that continue. I'm just rambling at this point, but tldr: I wish there were more tinkoffski fics in general, but especially ones with silly shenanigans.

Trying my hand at something different based off of a silly text post I made about a 90s/00s chatfic au. Not 100% sure if I'll continue it yet, so please let me know what you think! 💜❤️

Eddie couldn’t lie to himself that his heart skipped a beat when he got the notification. When he saw who the notification was for. The familiar bloop noise and the little pop up at the corner of the screen.

KingSteve85 is Online

Finally. Steve had moved away for college almost two weeks ago now, and Eddie had barely heard from him. Logically he knows that he and Robin needed the time to drive up, and set up in their cramped little dorms, and do other fancy college orientation things. But he missed them. Now that he had them, people who weren’t scared of him, people who weren’t afraid to call him out on his shit, people who got it. They talked almost every day after… everything.

Eddie would log on to the shitty old computer he and Wayne had fixed up and wedged in the corner of the trailer, scroll the internet, listen to music — and chat with Steve. He was a good fucking guy. And funny. And hot. And now it felt weird not chatting to him every day. Not logging on after a shift at Thatcher Tyre to find the little green Online dot next to his username. Not logging on at 2am after a nightmare to find Steve also online.

But Steve’s at college now, and his PC is currently boxed up in Robin’s childhood bedroom. Didn’t trust his new roommate, he said. Or his parents, after he moved out.

Without hesitating, ignoring the flip of his stomach and beat of his heart — he sends Steve a message.

c0rr0d3d_3dd13: soooooo how was ur 1st wk of college? :D

Steve replies immediately.

KingSteve85: so crazy haha KingSteve85: sorry i haven’t been online haha c0rr0d3d_3dd13: lol allgud. i know ur a big college boy now C0rr0d3d_3dd13: don’t have time 4 me anymor lol ;_;

Eddie cringes as soon as he says it, as soon as he hears the click of the enter key sending the message. Recoiling into a ball, hands over his face, curling up on the wheeled office chair, he lets himself spin as he watches the screen. Waits for the KingSteve85 is typing… message to pop up. God, Steve’s barely left and Eddie’s already a needy, self deprecating, mess.

Fuck his life. Crushes are stupid.

Because that’s what that is. He can admit that to himself now. Now that Steve’s left. He’s got a big, fat, gay crush on Steve Harrington. Him and all the other repressed queer kids at Hawkins High. What a cliché.

The computer pings with a new message, and his gaze is ripped towards the screen.

KingSteve85: never! there was just a lot of events and stuff this first week KingSteve85: did not have time to go to the library and log on lol KingSteve85: haven’t even called Dustin yet c0rr0d3d_3dd13: ur messaging me b4 dusty? Ur gonna make a girl blush harrington

Hunched over on the office chair with the broken wheel, at the computer he helped fix, with the shoddy speakers him and Wayne haven’t gotten around to yet — Eddie felt special. Dustin was Steve’s brother, one of his best friends. And yet Steve chose to message him first.

He tries to humble himself, hold back the blush with the knowledge that if Robin went to a different college than Steve (which was highly unlikely), he would have messaged her first. But Robin isn’t at a different college. And Eddie got the message first.

c0rr0d3d_3dd13: wot sort of events were there? music and drinking? Rotfl KingSteve85: literally yes haha KingSteve85: during the day there were like,,, tours and stalls advertising clubs and stuff KingSteve85: but as soon as it was night it all popped off haha c0rr0d3d_3dd13: u go 2 any? KingSteve85: some! not a lot haha. Robs wasn’t super excited and i didn’t want to leave her alone

It warmed his cynical heart, how much Steve cared for Robin. And how much she cared for him in return. They cared, and they love each other so much. Eddie thinks they’d still be close, even without all the debilitating trauma that glued them together. Robin had mentioned wanting to merge her and Steve into one being before, so they could always be close and balance each other out. Steve had immediately agreed.

Eddie had friends in the Corroded Coffin boys, but he wasn’t sure if they were at the ‘merge into one mega being’ stage of their friendship yet. Maybe Jeff. Jeff had gone off to college this year with Frank — to a different place than Steve and Robin — and Eddie had already received a postcard from him. It was nice to not be forgotten. A part of him wondered if he would be, when everyone went off to college.

But Jeff didn’t. Steve didn’t.

c0rr0d3d_3dd13: wot a gentleman lol c0rr0d3d_3dd13: wots ur timetable lik now? KingSteve85: fucking crazy dude KingSteve85: got lectures & tutorials & work & been thinking about doing a sport again c0rr0d3d_3dd13: which sport lol? u’ve got like… 3 to pick from c0rr0d3d_3dd13: ALSO DAMN DUDE THATS BUSY KingSteve85: i guess haha KingSteve85: been thinking either basketball or swimming. maybe baseball lol KingSteve85: which’ll add practices and meets and games and stuff haha

Before he left, Steve had quietly admitted that he wasn’t sure if he’d try out for a sport or not. During his senior year Billy Hargrove gave him a concussion so bad it benched him for months, and he’d spent ages trying to work back up to it again. So he could play without wanting to puke. And then he didn’t get into college when he applied to the fancy schools his dad made him apply for, and he missed out on any possible scholarships he would’ve gotten.

And he would’ve gotten them. Eddie’s not much of a sports guy, but he knows Steve was good. Great. One of the best.

Eddie quietly believed in Steve. He wouldn’t be himself unless he was exercising or playing a sport. You could see it in his face when he watched a game with Robin, when he played pick-up basketball with Lucas. It made him happy. So Eddie wanted Steve to try out. He was at the sappy stage where the thought of Steve being happy made his heart swell. He was happy he was happy.

(A part of Eddie just wondered if maybe Steve could be happy with him.)

c0rr0d3d_3dd13: do it!! i’ll cheer 4 u from here c0rr0d3d_3dd13: but leave som time free lol or u’ll go mad KingSteve85: enough free time i can chat w you? Haha

His hear clenches at the fact that it was Steve who bought it up. Their chatting. Maybe he thinks of it as often as Eddie does.

c0rr0d3d_3dd13: obvs??? c0rr0d3d_3dd13: if u 4get ab me im gonna cry dude KingSteve85: of course i won’t haha KingSteve85: gotta chat w you so you won’t go crazy back in Hawkins c0rr0d3d_3dd13: and i’ll make sure u don’t go crazy over there with your full ass schedule KingSteve85: its not that bad haha KingSteve85: but thank u c0rr0d3d_3dd13: i’d argue it *is* that bad c0rr0d3d_3dd13: i hav a full time job and the thought of ur schedule makes me cry

Wayne had managed to get him a job at Thatcher Tyre, through a few mutual acquaintances and a favour he had yet to cash in. It made him feel like one of those rich shit kids who go to college on daddy’s money and get a job in his company without having to work for it. The type of kid Steve was.

But Eddie can’t be picky now, and he and Wayne need the money. He’s good at cars, doesn’t completely hate it, and it pays. So he bit his lip, and now he has a full time job with a schedule of his own.

It is not as busy as Steve’s. He knows if he asks Robin, hers will be the same. Filled with band practices and sports games. Birds of a feather.

KingSteve85: i’m used to it haha KingSteve85: at least i’m only planning on one sport and not two lol c0rr0d3d_3dd13: u better stick to that harrington c0rr0d3d_3dd13: or i’ll drive up there and kick ur ass until you take care of urself

There’s a pause. The KingSteve85 is typing… message flickered on the screen, loading whatever message Steve was typing.

It eventually came through.

KingSteve85: i promise. but maybe i should break that rule so you can come visit c0rr0d3d_3dd13: u dont have 2 con me into visiting stevie. just say the word

Another pause.

KingSteve85: i will

crows fic recs 🐦‍⬛

put this list together for a friend a few weeks ago and thought i may as well share it here. it's mostly wesper :)

without a mouth i can swear your name by @kvothes - 32k - the only hogwarts au i've ever read that was genuinely great. wylan goes missing and the others go on a mission to find him.

the pugilist's creed by bardelow - 123k - post book canon. wylan and matthias are kidnapped and the other have to get them back. this is whump and angst and ahh but i swear it is also comfort.

if you love her by heavenlyshadows - 3.9k - modern au. kanej take their relationship at their own pace. this is just so sweet

dance with me, darling by @demigodbeautiies - 3.8k - a cute and fun and messy wesper propsal fic

somewhere full of bright colors and beautiful sounds by @demigodbeautiies - 15k - an absolutely beautiful marya hendriks character study

the handmaid by maudeelise - 78k - the crows run a con where jesper is to pose as wylan's handmaid. it goes predictably awry. this one is so so slay and has an amazing plot twist and just ?? reading it as it was updating was insane

keep you safe by @aphroditestummyrolls - 42k - in a post-canon au which has elements from the show and where jesper took the parem (it makes perfect sense when you read it i swear) colm shows up in ketterdam looking for jesper. complicated but heartwarming family reunion

big reputations by @downn-in-flames - 61k - the college au chatfic that has become such a core in this fandom for all the right reasons. so so much fun

#i havent read crows fics in a hot minute #so this is not as recent as it could be #but i had it together all ready so i might as well share it here in case anyone is interested #fic recs #six of crows #tortle recs fics #six of crows fic
