Tumblr media
🕷️- Miguel is your soulmate, but you are not his (Angst) (Actually my favorite bot in the list. I have never cried so much. In my role Miguel married his girlfriend, and User married Gabriel, but user and Mig always been in love with each other. It was terrible and I recommend it to everyone)
🕷️- Soulmate Au, but this time it's nice
🕷️- User's variant died during Miguel's canonical event. Now he's a little shocked to see User alive and well

🕷️- Silk Au. User and Miguel were bitten by the same spider (Technically nsfw, but can also be fluff)
🕷️- Black Cat User
🕷️- Miguel is pissed because User sucks at being a Spider-person (he's actually worried about safety but can't express himself in a normal way)
🕷️- FEM MIGUEL MY BELOVED (She Is so gnam)

🕷️- User is a multidimensional variant of Gabriella's mother

🕷️- Addams family Au (@ofherdesire is another creator with a lot of bots, and if I'm not mistaken she accepts requests on tiktok, i think?)
🕷️- User is Miguel's personal assistant
🕷️- User is babysitting their niece, when they meets single dad!Miguel at the park
🕷️- Hanahaki Au (@gyufairyz has a sizable bot list and accepts requests)
🕷️- Regency Au bc i'm a big fan of Pride and Prejudice

Writing Masterpost
I have a lot of ~feelings~ about having to shift my pinned post from my long fic after almost three months. I'm shocked that I've started writing other things, but here we are. 🫣✨
The OCs of My Stories
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
~If it isn't a one shot, it has its own masterpost in addition to being listed here~
Daisies | Nature's Gifts | Tandem
---------------------------------
~Messages~
AO3 | Writer's Discord
All BG3 related writing, summaries, and links below the cut!
Longfics
---------------------------------------------------
Daisies On My Nightstand (AO3)
Tumblr Masterpost
Tumblr media
(I stopped regularly updating chapters here since the fic has gotten so long, but there's background information/pictures of Ilara and some chapters were posted here originally!)
This is my longfic! It is so long. It is my baby. It is now longer than return of the king somehow. It has too many tropes, it has a slow burn romance, it has dark romance. There is Raphael and Gortash and Astarion and Shadowheart and. A lot. I mean a lot. I update chapters daily on a semi regular/consistent schedule. Please please be mindful of tags and chapter notes!
Summary:
The story of a Bhaal-Spawn who only ever wanted to be free.
Ilara would do anything for the people she loves, having never been freely allowed to do so before- including killing her past, denouncing her God, and damning 7,000 souls. Can she save herself, let alone anyone else?
---------------------------------------------
Nature's Gifts on AO3
Tumblr Masterpost
Tumblr media
Self indulgent filthy smut that was supposed to be a one shot and now isn't. Tadpole smut and something going on with both Astarion and Gale and the weird little druid they're hanging out with. 😌
Unlike my other long fic, this is unlikely to be updated DAILY but will be updated often.
Major tags (others on AO3): m/f, m/f/m, inappropriate use of tadpoles, smut that grew feelings and plot
Summary:
If you're all stuck with these tadpoles anyway, is there really any harm in seeing what they can do?
She let her mind wander, finding herself aggravated more than anything when those thoughts turned to Astarion, to the way his lips had brushed against her ear. She let out an agitated breath as she thought of how he felt laying on top of her, his mouth against her pulse a few nights ago. The way she felt him trying to still his hips against hers, it was just a taste after all. It was just one bite. It's not like any clothes came off. And it certainly hasn't happened again.
But what if it did?
------------------------------------------
Tandem on AO3
Tumblr Masterpost
Tumblr media
A series of one shots told in no specific order about my evil durge, Lili(th) and her sole companion, Astarion. Some will be fluff, some will be smut, some will just be unhinged probably. This won't update often but they'll be around 💕
Major tags (more to be added): blood drinking, canon typical violence, eventually there will be more.
----------------------------------------------
✨One Shots✨ (all nsfw)
----------------------------------------------
Ruin
Tumblr Post
Full story on AO3
One shot, single chapter; 3,859 Words. Reader x Astarion;
Important tags: major character death warning, sad smut, explicit, F/M
Summary:
Five years after walking away from The Vampire Ascendant and everything he offered to you, you've returned to stop him from wreaking havoc on Baldur's Gate. That turns out to be harder than you think.
------------------------------------------------
The End
Tumblr Post
Full Story on AO3
One shot, single chapter; 3,118 words
Tags: major character death warning, smut, F/F
Summary:
Second person Shadowheart POV.
After taking her place as Bhaal's chosen, your lover decided at the last moment to destroy the crown and give up her claim. You have one last night together.
-----------------------------------------
Weakness
One shot (so far, I might add more eventually); 1,286 words. Was done for a prompt, the prompt is revealed at the end.
Summary:
Astarion POV, first person.
Tav has come to find you in Baldur's Gate after disappearing years ago. Why?
"That would be showing a weakness, a vulnerability that I can longer afford. If it was ever something I could have afforded to begin with. Arguably, it hadn't been. She wormed her way between the cracks of my defenses, not even realizing what she was doing until it was too late. Until I was too far gone to stop her. "

I was tagged by @veloursdor (thank you 🥰) and I have a sore throat and am responding from the centre of a pile of blankets. I am cozy and my mouth tastes like chai (also teeth, probably).
1.) How many works do you have on ao3?
27 apparently! I should have a 30th birthday party for my account once we reach that point.
2.) What's your ao3 word count?
446,791. Definitely thought I was over 500k by now but that's writer's block for you. I've written half as much this year as I did last year. But if I really apply myself in the next two months...
3.) What fandoms do you write for?
Star Wars only at the moment. I've toyed with branching out but I've decided that any spare inspiration goes to original fiction instead.
4.) What are your top five fics by kudos?
à la carte - I think this is the fic I'm most known for? Inasmuch as I'm known for things anyway. Glad people are still enjoying it!
Aggressive Negotiations - I had no idea this one was second now. Good for it! This is one of my hornier Obi-Wans, which is saying something given how I write the guy.
as holy and enchanted - Only two chapters but it contains as much sex as a much longer work. Efficient!
nothing compares to you - hasn't been updated since February 2022 but I guess some people like seeing Anakin fling himself against the Force like an angry cat trying to break down a door.
Out of the Bag - catboy Anakin my beloved, my original poor little meow meow.
5.) Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I was good about it for a while because I like talking to people about my fics but then in like December of last year I burned out a little and stopped replying but kept posting fics and then the situation got out of control. I started replying again over the summer and have just decided that everything between like December 2022 and June 2023 exists in a weird little no-reply bubble.
6.) What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Probably my most recent fic, from a certain point of view. It ends okay for Obi-Wan and Anakin at least?
7.) What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
The fics that have endings are almost all happy endings 🤔 à la carte, maybe? There are a bunch of non-obikin characters who also have nice things happen to them so maybe it's extra happy.
8.) Do you get hate on fics?
I guess the closest I've gotten are snarky comments about my lack of updates but those people do seem to like the fic. They're just not crazy about the author.
9.) Do you write smut? If so what kind?
Yup! It's funny, I described my smut as vanilla but it's all relative isn't it? I think by many standards obikin itself is pretty kinky.
10.) Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
I do not. The closest is probably as holy and enchanted because I definitely borrowed Indiana Jones vibes for my Anakin, but nothing beyond that.
11.) Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I'm aware so if so, the thief made a clean getaway!
12.) Have you ever had a fic translated?
A few! Actually the funniest thing I did was immediately paste the text into google translate so I could see what was going on before realizing that, uh, I already know what it says in English...
13.) Have you ever cowritten a fic before?
Nope! I've talked about doing it a few times but I worry that I'd be a nightmare to work with since I'm not great at sticking by a project.
14.) What's your all time favorite ship?
At this point it has to be obikin. I've never maintained interest for this long in any fandom before. It's the combination of interesting and handsome characters with a setting ripe for fix-its. And then it's fun making weird AUs with them too? They're just excellent!
15.) What's a WIP you'd like to finish, but doubt you ever will?
I mean never say never but Murder at Theed Hall is extraordinarily unlikely. I write mystery original fiction (well, write is a strong word recently but like...I have a pile of disjointed paragraphs?) so I just don't feel the drive to resolve the story.
16.) What are your writing strengths?
I keep answering "dialogue" for the various iterations of this question but like, how embarrassing if everyone else thinks my dialogue sucks? I stand by it anyway but the idea weighs on me!
17.) What are your writing weaknesses?
I think my biggest weakness is all the time I spend beating myself up for clumsy phrasing or slow output so my new answer is I have no weaknesses and everything I'm doing is on purpose. Yay me!
18.) Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I've never had a reason to do this. The most I can imagine is a quick "Anakin said something to Artoo in binary" but otherwise I'd probably translate into English. Is that frowned upon???
19.) First fandom you wrote for?
Harry Potter. I was like 13 and it's exactly what you'd imagine.
20.) Favorite fic you've ever written?
It depends on my mood! In my current mood I'll pick my baseball fic The Bottom of the Ninth because I really wrote 40k about obikin playing baseball. I was my target audience and I had a great time. No regrets!
Tagging (does it say how many? I'll just do a few) and as always, no pressure: @renlyslittlerose, @treescape, @intermundia, @artemisthehuntress, @lilredghost

five things you will find in my fics
tagged by @cosmictapestry to attempt self-reflection. i know my ao3 hasn't been updated in a hot second, but there ARE works-in-progress, i just spent the past few months finishing a dissertation. academia got ALL my words for the longest time so we're tiptoeing back into fic. i had to outsource a lot of this to the gf because i am incapable of finding positive things to say about my own writing unless it's a conference presentation (because i'm fucking good at those).
short AF. i ADORE long fics, 10k one-shots, and multi-chapter fics. apparently i am incapable of writing these. it's gonna be under 5k and it's most likely going to be self-contained (unless i'm playing in someone else's sandbox). ya notgirl is a chronic underwriter in all areas of life. at least i stay consistent.
snappy dialogue. this one is courtesy of the gf. i like punchy dialogue and my adolescence spent in writer chat forums means i have an eternal fear of monologues even if i'm good with them in other ppl's work.
background trauma. i don't imprint on characters unless they're Fucked Up, so this is just the natural consequence.
complicated relationships to authority/institutions (this one also courtesy of the gf). sometimes it's god, sometimes it's your boss, sometimes it's the weight of mythos. can you tell i went to grad school.
autism/adhd. it's almost never tagged but it's obviously there. i feel like this needs no explanation [peace sign].
tagging ppl scares the shit out of me, but here's my best shot: @hypokeimena, @persianflaw, @aboxthecolourofheartache, @onion-eyed (you might not know me but i love your fics!). also anyone else who wants to make a List because we love a list in this house.

HELLO???
masterlist masterlist 2 request list
Requests: Kalpas
if you would be ok with me writing your ideas for Kalpas, I'm open to asks!
update: I'm still fine with taking asks! but!! at this point I have a couple and it will take me more than a month to get to any new ones so please just be aware it'll take me some time!
I will always take asks about your headcannons or my own, but any longer works are written on a whim. I do not control the writing, I merely write until my wrist falls off and hope that the words make a complete sentence.
Genuinely my interests in a character will change overnight, you would not believe the wip pile I have because my brain suddenly decides it hates the character it was obsessed with 2 hours ago
A lot of my works are just a bunch of small hcs or scenarios I have thought of or seen smashed together so if you send me hcs or I post some in response to an ask I will always try to link those to the work. I want to make sure people get credit for their ideas, even if they're on anon.
Feel free to call me Zaria or Zari (or Tamale if you're coming from ao3)
Or whatever really, so long as I can tell you're referring to me
she/her/they doesn't bother me either way
I'm a college student who enjoys writing in my free time (I know this is like code for "I'm a bad writer with 2 stories and then I drop off the grid" but I promise I genuinely write for stress relief, and I am very stressed at school so we'll be good!)
I mostly write fluff and angst x reader
As of now, I don't think I'll be writing nsfw mostly because my ace ass hasn't even been in a relationship and I want to become more comfortable with writing in general first.
That being said! I'm 100% here for short nsfw headcannons or asks so please minors DNI. If I do end up writing any smut it'll probably end up on ao3, though I will post a link here.
Speaking of asks
Asks/not-requests
If you just wanna post something, that's chill
If you want my thoughts on something, that's chill
If you wanna ask questions or talk about something I've written, that's chill
I'm not comfortable writing for or talking about minors, though there are a few characters I am ok with writing for if they're aged up (Damian Wayne or certain Persona characters off the top of my head)
Non-con is a hard no. Yandere is almost always a no. Dub-con is on thin fucking ice and usually depends on a whole lot of things.
Sometimes Tumblr eats asks!! If you think you sent something that was totally reasonable and I don't respond to it in like a couple weeks, try sending it again!
(at the end of the day, if you send something I'm not comfortable with, I'll let you know, or in extreme cases I just won't respond, so don't stress about it too much!)
Honestly I'm going to be writing either way, and I really just want to get my stories out on the odd chance someone has the same interest. Some of these stories are kinda niche or the reader has traits that I personally have or want for them. If someone enjoys them, great! If it's not your cup of tea, that's fine too! They'll be here until Tumblr gets sold off for the 57th time and loses so much money the shoestring holding it together falls apart.
Sorry for the super long post, List of games I've played below, it's even longer don't even look at it.
Fire Emblem:
Sacred Stones (ask me about Boston Grandma)
Awakening (If Camilla is dragon mommy, Cherche is dragon mom and I love her more)
Fates (Oh please don't start a fight)
Three Houses (oh please don't start a fight)
Like half of Radiant Dawn (Thank you Vimm's lair)
Heroes (You can always tell when Cuboon draws the art)
Overwatch (I have yet to play 2 and I'm not sure I want to)
Honkai Impact (HoS has modified my mind and now she and the flame chasers own me)
I am also fine with writing for APHO! I actually have a story in the works for the MC (man's got like 20 names)
Genshin Impact (Ohhh I could make a bonfire from this wip pile)
Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild (I have like four other loz games and just haven't played them. Thank you Vimm's lair)
Kid Icarus (I used to have the biggest crush on Dark Pit when I was younger hhhh)
Borderlands 3 (2 makes me so motion sick)
Persona 4 Golden (now with graphics!)
Persona 5 (Not Royal, I'll play it when it comes to pc)
Hollow Knight (I'm not sure how comfortable I am writing this, but I love the game to bits)
Tekken 7 (I have-no joke-17 hours on this game but I am more than willing to read the wiki for some of these characters)
Valkyria Chronicles 4 (I might have to replay it)
Transistor (bought it for the ost, stayed for the gameplay)
Bastion (bought it because of Transistor, stayed for the gameplay and ost)
I love supergiant Darren Korb, I own Hades but have not played it because I know I'll be obsessed for like a month
Devil May Cry 5 (I haven't played the previous games, do with that what you will)
Anime:
In advance, I watched these like almost a decade ago so I might be a bit rusty. Most of them I really care for though, and I'll take recommendations!
Ouran High School Host Club (I'm so sorry)
Soul Eater (I can't remember if I ever finished this...uhhhh)
Fruits Basket (the like 90's version, not the more recent one. Hatsuharu ruined my life tho)
Sailor Moon (Sailor Jupiter my beloved)
Fullmetal Alchemist (Fu Hua killed Meas Hughes)
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (I get these two mixed up, I should rewatch them both, right?)
One Piece (I don't think I got past episode 200, I will be so inaccurate)
RWBY (If you count this, I think I'm behind by a season)
I am so terribly sorry if you read through all of that. If I have something that's not listed, feel free to ask anyway! I really like making horrible guesses about characters and then actually seeing them in their game or show and finding out how inaccurate I was (half the time my guess is just "oough ladie")

ANNOUNCEMENT
It feels a bit silly to be making an announcement on an account that doesn't even have 50 followers, but here I am anyway. Anyone who has been looking at my account for the past few months might have noticed I haven't posted a new fanfic since October. Not only that, but I have been sharing a lot less about K-pop and a lot about Red, White, and Royal Blue. And no, the announcement is not that this blog will now be a RWRB blog.
This announcement mostly concerns my writing space here on Tumblr and what I think to do with my writing. The main reason why there hasn't been a new chapter for Fine Line is that this year (at the very last minute) I decided to participate in NaNoWriMo. My attention is currently on a Sapphic Novel I want to one day publish. I still intend to go back to Fine Line once November ends, however, it won't be here on Tumblr.
This is where I circle back to the point of this announcement. For a while now, I have been feeling like my fanfics do not align with the audience here. The K-pop fanfic community here is mostly interested in Y/N fanfics, and not only that, but the great majority are also extremely heterosexual. Not like there is nothing wrong with that, I have read many of these and have enjoyed them heavily. It only takes one look at my fanfic recommendation tag to see that. But as a writer who is not only queer but character-driven, those are not the types of stories I want to write. So I have decided to take my stories to another platform where they might have a bigger audience. It should be a surprise to no one that I am talking about AO3. After I finish NaNoWriMo I will be pushing all my attention on moving all my stories here to AO3. All with the exception of How To Love, it will still be taken out of Tumblr, but I have bigger plans for that story outside of both platforms.
I will still be sharing it here whenever I update Fine Line and an upcoming Spin-Off I've been planning.
However, my last announcement is about where this goes after I finish Fine Line and the Spin-Off. I have other ideas for other fanfics but for the past few months, I have become less and less active in the K-pop fandom. Part of it does have to do with my current RWRB hyperfixation, but also just want to focus more on queer media. I don't think I will stop writing fanfics, at least not now, but I am not sure if I will still be writing fanfics about K-pop idols. And who knows, I might not be as involved in the fandom, but still write fanfics for NCT and other groups.
I know not many people will care about this. I am a really tiny blog that most don't even look at. But if you're still here, thanks for reading and caring. I am not leaving Tumblr, and never will. I am one of those stubborn bitches who refuse to let this hell site die.

2018 in fanfic
As the year has officially come to a close, I thought I'd share the goings-on in the fanfic department in the last twelve months because from what I've seeing, it's been grand. It sure felt that way at the time, too.
Tumblr media
120 subscribers! I've never expected this and I'm honestly so grateful, as much for that as for the individual story subscriptions. This year's stories make up for quite a big portion of the overall count (about 800 since 2012, so 522 just this year feels amazing to me) and it's just!! wonderful to look at! And the kudos, comments and bookmarks too! The kudos function often goes ignored because a lot of writers see it as a like button, but those daily emails are sometimes the highlight of a bad day and, well. Thank you, everyone, whether we talk on here too or if it's only on AO3, for any and every form of appreciation you've given to a writer. You're a treasure. Same goes for everyone on FFN too - I don't have clear stats for that but the PM function has given an opportunity to many a wonderful conversation and the start of at least a few friendships.
As for the stories who ended up being the big stars of the year, I preset to you my pride and joy:
Tumblr media
1. deeper than time (Doctor Who, Doctor/River, WIP). It was posted in November and just hit 3000 hits this morning. I'm in love with writing this one.
Summary: The Doctor ends up stuck on Earth without her TARDIS and companions and is directed to a mysterious detective who specialises in the supernatural. At roughly the same point, River Song meets her second wife for the first time.
2. burning alive (Star Wars, Rey/Ben, one-shot). Got far more popular than expected, likely because of the ship, lbr. Not adding a summary because it's a PWP and therefore slightly out of place on a celebratory post.
3. calling for your head and calling for your name (Game of Thrones, Jon/Daenerys, one-shot). Likely got popular because it's got a puppy. Valid and understandable. A joy to write.
Summary: "Ghost. Jon had mentioned the name before. So this is what a direwolf looks like."
4. black flowers blossom (Game of Thrones, Jon/Daenerys, one-shot). I was in love with writing this fic! A first for this ship and my favourite one for it to this day, probably.
Summary: There's something wrong. Jon isn't sure what it is - not since all that's happened is a short conversation between Bran and Daenerys - but he's determined to find out.
5. let me watch the moon (rise up and turn to silver) (Game of Thrones, Jon/Daenerys, WIP). This one hasn't been updated in a decade, but I swear that it's coming soon. I have so many thoughts about the direction of this story. Role swaps are a goldmine.
Summary: The chances of a Targaryen finding safety in Westeros under King Robert's rule are slim to none; Jon has known that his entire life. The only hope seems to come in the form of the Warden of the North - the man who, as it so happens, is also the guardian of the only living member of his family; the one he's been searching for his entire life.
...and that wraps it up nicely, I think! Thank you guys so much once again for the wonderful year! Already looking forward to what comes next. ✨✒

As a writer, I feel like you'll empathize with going to AO3, finding a delightful (but unfinished) Bellarke story you're totally engaged in, reaching the end of it, and realizing it hasn't been updated in a year and a half!! It's like...WHY??? It was truly the most interesting and dark story I've read, and I'm desperate to know how it ends - and all the comments on it are so positive and likewise desperate to have an ending - but there's been nothing for months. I feel such a sense of loss.
2/2 So this is just a general shoutout to all the writers out there: If the comments tell you you’re awesome, it’s because you are!! Please finish your stories and don’t break our Bellarke hearts with unfinished endings like the show. Please and thank you! Much writing love xoxo
Aw. That’s so sweet. I do empathize with you, as a reader. I’ve read those stories I was dying to get to the end of only to have them be unfinished. It’s frustrating.
As a writer I have a few stories like that which I never finished. Some of them I intended to go back to. Some of them got to be too big and I didn’t feel like I could tell the story. Some of them I just lost my momentum on.
But I’ve actually gone back to finish a last chapter in a couple of my unfinished fics this year, because someone asked me about it, or in one case, because someone asked for it when I opened up writing prompts.
One of my unfinished stories, though, is unfinished because I’m turning it into an original novel, in fact, I’m taking a break from writing it right now. I have 96k words. It’s not bellarke anymore, but you can see the roots. I loved the story, but felt like it was veering to far from the source material and feeling the need to keep in character and tied to The 100 was hobbling my story. So I went full novel.
You know, fan fiction is a risky business. It’s a hobby for everyone and it has to be fit in around their lives and their confidence and their inspiration and their writing process. I’m not really the kind of person who writes for the kudos and comments, but a lot of people are. The reinforcement that they’re doing a good job helps encourage them to keep writing. And knowing that people are reading it and waiting for the next installment is even more of an incentive for me.
