What are your plans (if any) for Langlocked Lurid?

stare longingly at it until i figure out how i was planning to continue with the plot...,,, hiatus until then i guess. u_u i wanted to do an alma arc but i'm starting to think i overshot myself trying to stretch the plot across the full school years. i might revisit some time in the future but no guarantee and no idea when

1, 3, 9, 11, 23, 24?

aaaaaah welcome!! Thank you for the asks :’)

1: favorite fic you wrote this year

Definitely Petunias and Black Lilies! It was the longest oneshot I’ve written all year, and aside from the somewhat weak ending, I’m pretty proud of it.

2: favorite line/scene you wrote this year

Hnnnnnngh this was a toughie but here

Aria meets back up with Xanxus after Don Vongola finishes introducing his new son. It’s a pity that they couldn’t nab the cake, but that’s alright. They’re only children. They can learn from this, and grow, and besides, Aria already has a contingency plan prepared, though Xanxus doesn’t know it. Plus, no one’s died. This is a children’s game, after all. It’s alright.

Xanxus doesn’t seem to think so, though. He looks angry and frustrated, teeth gritted and fists clenched as he walks over, and now Aria’s worried because again, it’s a game.

(Granted, so is Monopoly, but that’s another story she really doesn’t want to get into right now.)

”What’s wrong?” she asks immediately, catching his hands in hers and sending pulses of her Flames through them. She’s nowhere near the effectiveness of a Rain, but the atmosphere is languid and relaxed, and she’s keeping herself calm, so maybe the Sky’s harmony will work. But his Flames fight back, they don’t want to be tamed, and Aria is forced along for the ride and finds herself facing a tidal wave of self-loathing. Um. Wow.

“We didn’t get it,” he hisses, still furious, and now Aria knows it’s at himself. “I didn’t factor in the old man. And now we’ve lost our chance.” He looks on the very verge of berating himself, too; Aria recognizes the signs from one anxious Sun in her famiglia, and this is all wrong, so her hands move from his hands to his face and slap his cheeks lightly.

“Hey,” she says, slightly reprimanding, fixing him with a stern glare. “It’s okay. This isn’t a raid on an enemy family, and we aren’t grown-ups. It’s okay to mess up. This is a game, you know? A game.” He doesn’t look at all assured, but he does look very confused, and he opens his mouth again to speak but she squishes his cheeks and cuts him off. “Besides, this is a… a whatchamacallit… a learning experience. It’s harder for us to move around because we’re important, right? And there are people who know we are. We’re constricted because of our place in society.” A different kind of constriction than his previous place, she doesn’t say, but it looks like it’s dawning on him and he’s listening now, and putting together the puzzle. She’s trying to teach him, he knows now, she can see it in the way his eyes are no longer defensive, but still slightly hostile, and curious. Good, so he’s a quick study. This will make assimilating him into society much faster.

“You’re like Carlotta,” he notes, and she’s caught off guard partially because she wasn’t expecting him to say anything, partially because it takes her a beat to recognize that Carlotta is the name of Don Vongola’s wife. So Xanxus doesn’t call her mother, but also doesn’t call her an ‘old lady.’ Interesting. “You’re making me fit in. In a real sneaky, underhanded way.”

“I guess,” Aria allows. He’s not exactly wrong. “So what are you going to do about it?”

Xanxus stares at her for a moment before saying, “The old man is always talking about how it’s important to make allies.”

And just like that, they’re friends.

——It’s a passage from Petunias and Black Lilies.

9: longest wip of the year

Uh *sweats* Maybe my DGM Harry Potter AU?

11: fandom you enjoyed writing for the most this year

KHR!! I’ve barely posted anything for it, but I have a ton of unfinished oneshots piled up!!

23: fics you wanted to write but didn’t

*chuckles* Buddy my dude all the ideas I had that I liked were either drawn, had passages written to languish for eternity, or jotted down with some details in a document I keep for the exact purpose of keeping my ideas. Nothing is ever left to hang around my head.Unless you’re talking about those things in which case HOO BOY—

24: favorite fic you read this year

Probably Langlocked Lurid by @esquitor or Beginnings and Middles With No Ends In Sight by Ourliazo. I’m pretty sure both are on ao3 and ff.net. Special mentions go to @sawadoot’s domestic evil AU and the saga of @katya-khrabrets by @autumn-roses.

Thanks for the asks buddy!! I love you!!

Summary:

The week after Gryffindor's rematch with Hufflepuff was a gloomy Sunday, both literally and metaphorically.

It was also the day Harry spotted a strange person walking down the halls on his way to the Great Hall for lunch.

"Harry," Hermione hissed, pulling on his arm before he could wander off.

"Hermione—"

Ron realized they'd stopped walking and turned around. "What is it? What's going on?"

"There's someone—"

"Nothing, Ronald, Harry's trying to go and play hero again—"

"—someone weird in the castle! What do you mean playing hero? I don't play hero."

"Basilisk? Sorcerer's Stone?"

"I have a fatal sense of curiosity," Harry defended himself.

allen, who isn't allowed to go to hogsmeade anyway: accrue interest for the rest of your life bitch

#you are two hours ahead of me!! outlook says i got this at 1am #langlocked lurid

[esquitor]

official reason why langlocked and belief are both on semi-permanent hiatus:

i’ve been swapping between desktop and laptop for writing and i use cloud service to access the scrivener files between the two but somehow didn’t realize until recently that if i dont’ give one platform time to actually Update To THe Most Recent File Version and just open up scrivener it will literally just overwrite the most recent file version with whatever is current on the device i’m using which is how i managed to lose the latest 2 chapters of both fics from their respective scrivener files and any plotting and drafting and planning i may have done for future chapters while writing those two chapters so i’m like

fuck. i’ll think about re-plotting everything i dont’ remember losing later. and that’s where we are now.

#scarlet rambles #cloud storage is great guys..... if you let your files sync properly #if not then you're fuckin fucked #:( #langlocked lurid #not love but worship

[esquitor]

"Stay put, Mister Potter," his rescuer said. It was muffled, but Harry recognized the voice. It didn't bring much reassurance.

At least until he craned his head around and saw why he was being told to stay put.

The dementors were crowded around them, trying to come closer but being kept at bay by that same inky-black smoke. The rain had no effect on either— dementors did not get wet, the water simply rolled off of their robe-like skins, and the smoke... it didn't dissipate like smoke normally did in the rain. In fact, the rain didn't even seem to touch it, simply passing through as though it weren't really there.

"I apologize for the noise," Campbell said, cool and smooth and far too void. "It's quite unavoidable with this spell."

Harry didn't now what he meant.

Then he said, "Tuono," and Harry shielded his eyes and ears from the crack of lightning that descended on them.

guess WHO;;

"What did my uncle want?" he asked as soon as the door was open.

"He didn't," Glenmoor said smoothly, practically barging into the room. Allen swerved aside. "I lied."

"You wouldn't have let us in otherwise, would you?" Malinda smiled apologetically.

"I would have!" Allen complained, though he didn't make any attempts to look affronted at all. "Probably. Maybe!"

"Very reassuring, Allen."

"I try to be."

the snippet is a lie. prepare to have plot dropped in your lap and murder you.

bcack on my bullshit!!!

kind of bare bones atm but i have some brief chapter summaries you won’t be seeing in the fic itself (what’s a summary, is it edible), and a glossary of terms for folks who are interested or who just straight up forget what things mean (like me).

working on the character page. i need to find a layout that works for lots of characters but also doesn’t take 10 millino years to load.
