#5+ year old fic

[closetfascination]

So I went back 5 or 6 years in the 13RW fandom and was intrigued by the summary "The criminal fic no one asked for or wanted" of Partners in Crime by HighGhostwriter21. I don't want to spoil it, but let's just say I was really shocked by the ending.

It is also cool to see which ships were trending back then because there are almost no Justlex fics anymore and Monty/Jeff was definitely a thing back in 2017 as well (although still a relative rarepair)

As a writer, I love going back through the comments I've gotten on AO3. I promise that the minute you take of your time has been appreciated for hours/months/years

#I still get comments on a fic I wrote about??? 5 years ago?? and it means so much to me #It's also genuinely such a nice boost of confidence #It's really easy as humans to dismiss anything old of yours as bad #But it makes me happy knowing I've improved #Your comment saying I'm a good writer based on that? Oh BAYBEE it's been constant practice since then

No, but this is definitely my most controversial opinion, but the whole thing with Buck and Eddie being the same age comes back to the fact that they are mirrors of each other. Down to the tattoos with mirrored placement, yes, but like, narratively speaking too. They've been running parallel to each other their whole lives and them being the same age makes that even more intense. Eddie had to grow up too fast and Buck didn't have to grow up at all. Eddie was forced to take care of more than he could and Buck was never allowed to care as much as he wanted. Both of them ran because their lives were overwhelming. Buck gives Eddie the tools to slow down for the first time in years while Eddie gives Buck something he's allowed to care about. They're two sides of the same coin. They complement each other. They're each other's missing piece. And that's so much better when they're the same age.

#'oh but that makes them boring :(' #can you give me a logical explanation as to why it makes them boring?????? #ugh #also i hate the old man joke. have been tapping out of fics about since forever. but they still work with just a few months? #'oh when i was your age' 'when? 2 months ago?' ' yeah you're old now' 'im 47 days older than you asshole' #like the 5 years thing NEVER made sense to me #and the way most people get mad about this particular development is so fascinating to me #anyway #controversial #911 #buddie thoughts #i still have thoughts but some of them dont need to be published

the way people care more about jason fighting tim than like any other rogue fighting tim during his robin run is...!

"they're brothers! jason is so horrible to attack his little brother."

aside from the obvious twinkification of tim, stop pushing the family narrative on two people who did not see each other as siblings at that moment.

#and also stop seeing tim as a 5 year old #jason fought him to prove a point #sometimes i wish he really did some serious damage to tim just so you guys would have something reasonable to complain about #gosh a 16-17yr old crime fighter who fights people like bane for a living definitely has trauma from a guy two years older than him #fighting him #yes jason todd the kid who was murdered for being robin would definitely go out and kill the next kid who is robin #because yessss his whole point is that he's jealous of the next robin and therefore needs to harm him worse than the joker harmed jason #like please i'm so tired of this discourse #why the fuck would jason- the child murder victim who died as robin and bc of batman taking on a child soldier- want to kill the next robin #you'd think the narrative that jason tried to kill tim would only be in like some fics #but nope! it's in every goddamn batfam fic i've ever read to this day #not even exaggerating #anti tim drake #anti batfam #jason todd #red hood #batman #dc

#gopher art #mortal kombat #kontradictions mk #mk subzero #mk smoke #kuai liang #bihan #tomas vrbada #genderbend #r63 #the sketch of baby kuai and bihan is based on a moment from ch14 of my fic (but the truth is worse) #at least i think its 14. its starting to blur together for me #kuai is 5 and bi-han is 9; almost 10. Kuai's shitty haircut is based on a haircut i gave myself around that same age #aka the reason my mom didn't let me use scissors for until i was legitimately 10 years old. no i am not kidding #in the second picture kuai is 15 and tomas is 17 almost 18. this is very shortly before kuai is scarred #i still have no fucking clue what the lin kuei uniforms are about. does everyone wear blue? just the bros? why do some of them get to wear #A Special Color and some dont? is it a rank thing? #anyway i think uniform is based on rank. and thats why the tiny cryosibs are wearing such different looking uniforms

fucked-up fic idea:

Y'know that one hannigram time travel au where they both travelled so far back in time that Will woke up as a 10 year old and Hannibal was able to rescue Mischa??

Well what if: A) Hannibal was much younger when Mischa died (more like 12), and B) they had the same age-difference as Mads and Hugh?

That would mean Will waking up, potentially, trapped in his infant body rather than his child body?? and being stuck that way for years until he can grow up again? 😬 And what if Hannibal knew that would probably happen, but did it anyway??

#hannibal nbc #hannigram #murder husbands #ficbunny #au idea #hannibunny #amotm this is my design #dat's me #meta: hannibal #you can't kill the meta #will graham #hannibal lecter #hannibal & will's terrible adventure #how do I tag this?? body horror? is it body horror? age dysmorphia?? #I'm not stoned I swear #like I just thought what a mind-bending fic that would make #the logistics of will having to handle that #being SO UTTERLY FURIOUS with hannibal for doing it to him/them when he catches him #[ cue scene of 8 year old will trying to strangle 18 year old hannibal who is beaming at how adorable he is ] #day care providers and teachers being like 'this child is either gifted or possessed' #will being like 'this is a living nightmare' #but also 'pls don't trap me in a room full of toddlers for multiple hours 5 days a week I can't stand noise' #knowing him he'd probably turn it into some kind of Hard Candy AU #I can see de-ageing not being a problem for hannibal #because being with mischa again would make the time fly #and also he would see it as getting to spend his WHOLE life with will this time #and also probably he would be killing SO MANY child predators y'all #SO MANY

I dreamt I had drawn (something that looked like) this, so I made it happen.

Live your dreams, people 💜

how i feel trying to find a completed arthur x reader series or even one that was updated in the last 365 days so i can have the tiniest hope for it to not be abandoned

#the amount of times i’ve reread a thrill i’ve never known by porkchop on ao3 and prayed to god for an update is just sad #i have no problem reading a series in progress i love waiting for updates and interacting with authors even anonymously while they write #i guess i just don’t understand why a fandom that’s not even 5 years old is so dead already 😔 i yearn so badly for good arthur fics #arthur morgan smut #arthur morgan x reader

better coping mechanisms through fic?

Sifo-Dyas has my sunglasses on his face. He looks absolutely exhausted and ridiculous at the same time, wrapped up in three layers of robes and his hair held up out of his face in the messiest bun I’ve seen on someone not me. There’s an ink-stylus, a chopstick, and an actual hair-stick holding it in place. The lenses of my glasses are pressed right up against his eyeballs, the arms sticking out at greater angles than they really should be. The ends are tucked into his hair instead of over his ears. It’s been a tiring day, with a seizure, a migraine, a complete lack of appetite, and an almost-meltdown between the two of us. I’m sideways on his lap, my feet swinging freely in the air, pointedly ignoring the very bland plate of food on the refectory table. It contains two intact pastries, the crumbs of one, and the tattered remains of the one I pulled apart, methodically separated by the layers of lamination within. Qui-Gon Jinn goes to pull out a chair. It doesn’t move. He pulls harder. He can’t see that Master Si has his feet locked around the slats making up the back of the chair, keeping it in place. I can’t imagine why he would want to sit here. This is one of the refectories that keeps to strict food rules, barring animal-derived products for people who are allergic or intolerant. I put my face down on the table to smother my laughing as Jinn decides discretion is the better part of valour and ignores the immovable chair. Master Si places the end of one of his sleeves over my head.

#keeping up with the skywalkers #the star wars isekai fic #you can't sit with us. this is the dairy-intolerant seer table and you're neither. #he's just sitting there in 5 billion layers with an 8-year-old on his lap trying to convince both of them they should eat something #araithana is NOT buying it #they are THE TIREDEST #conspiracy theory 73: the dairy industry is controlled by the sith

If one was to get a simple tdau tattoo, what should the design be? Hypothetically. 

I CANNOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CONDINE THAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME????????

#ask #tdau #DO NOT GET A TATTOO TO REPRESENT A FANFIC THAT IS NOT EVEN 5 MONTHS OLD 😭😭😭 #if its a fic youve loved for years and years then you can go ahead! sure! #but what if 3 months after the tdaus over you regret that tattoo 😭😭😭

i love how starved for content we are as a fandom that we're screaming and crying over the port of a game that came out in 2007. effervescent.
