Honest to go so good, it is unfinished and only at 3 chapters but it is 32k words and by god if it isnt one of the best books I have read over 5 times already, featuring mikey being a helpful little brother and managing to stress his big brothers out in the proccess.
Pretend That I Never Left by redstingraven (sirimiri)
2003 Mikey gets taken into the Horizon Zero Dawn universe rather than the superpowered turtle universe in the SAINW episode. Positively glorious, he gets bashed and bruised and comes out the other end with an arrow sticking out of him.

traveling so far to get there by taizi
different age turtles, 2012 universe, Mikey and Raph gets transported to a post-apocalypses time-line aptly called the after party, no one lives, but Mikey does manage to find himself a monkey companion and Raph really wishes his little brother and him would be back home. Little moment of Mikey and Donnie being twins that is positively adorable and I need more of it ASAP. Its 10k words but reads like 30 in the best way possible, like literally a must read!

Know the world in yourself by taizi
Donatello is an aspiring Egyptologist, and close friends with part-time thief and sometimes-scoundrel Casey Jones, who pickpockets an ancient map of the fabled City of the Dead off a young man he stumbles across in the Casbah—a young adventurer, it turns out, and none other than the little brother Donatello hasn't seen in almost eight years
Small spaces by Taizi

Sleepwalking by TheKeybladeMaster1994
Splinter wakes up in a cold sweat and notices that Mikey is missing, and it seems like a dark entity is after his littlest sons light, good thing its just a nightmare, right?

The Ultimate Weapon by TheKeybladeMaster1994
Mikey is pure of heart and just about everything knows it, including but not limited to an eldritch entity that he swears is just try to make his life hard no matter what it tells you.
Interrogation or Malpractice by Professor_Anxietree
2012 Mikey when he got captured by the triceritons, their mind reading machine doesn't do quite what was intended and it spells out pain and sufferings for the smallest of the Hamato clan. Its pretty much being over stimulated to the max, like your skin feels too tight and you can hear your nerons firing in your brain type stuff, beware if you have overstimulation.
Someone to Protect by Koalagriton
2012. Mikey's big bothers get captured by Hun and Mikey doesn't take it well, that's going to become Huns problem.

They need to address Bo’s trauma
Alright so this is going to be a super long essay about Bo’s trauma as I have been doing some research for the next chapters of my fic Mind Games. I went through her background and thought I would share with you my headcanons surrounding that. I especially realized that with her deaging came quite heavy consequences and thought we could discuss them.
There are of course going to be HUGE TRIGGER WARNINGS : Grief, Grooming, SA, anxiety, depression, s*ic*de. DISCLAIMER I am no therapist so this is just me drawing from some of my how experiences with trauma and doing some researches online.
Please know your limits and do not attempt to read this if you feel uneasy around those topics, I wouldn’t want to trigger anyone. Same goes with the potential comments that will be left under this post
So first, I’ll start with the implications of deaging Bo-Katan as they did. When we watch Clone Wars, we are led to understand that she is Satine’s younger sister but there are no indications on her age. If we think about it logically, there would probably be around an age gap of maximum 5 years between them. However, as many already pointed out, it would mean that she’d be around 60 years old in the third season of the Mandalorian. I watched a few of Katee Sackhof’s interview where she was saying that Bo-Katan was way younger that many thought she was. Indeed, with her being cast for Bo and Rosario Dawson for Ahsoka, I figured that it probably that the two were probably around the same age in CW, hence them becoming “friends” starting 7th season. It thus means that she probably was in her late teens or early twenties. However, the directors’ decision to deage her has quite huge implications :
Headcanons :
* First of all, it means that there was quite a huge age gap between Satine and her sister: 15 to 20 years approximately
· We figured from the first episodes of season 3 that Bo-Katan has known her Dad and that he fought and died in the Great Mandalorian civil war. There was no mention of her mom so I just assume she died in childbirth of during the civil war as well.
· When her dad died, Satine became duchess of Mandalore and probably didn’t have time to personally take care of such a young sister, especially considering that she went under Qui-Gon and Obi Wan’s protection. The latter never met her so it means that she probably stayed on Mandalore with her nannies or relatives, witnessing the horros of the Civil war. She probably felt abandoned by her sister. She probably wished the war to end as soon as possible (some have theorized that her dad probably taught her how to fight so she probably wasn’t scared of using violence to defend her planet), explaining why she never understood why her sister was a pacifist.
· I am a strong believer in Satine being Korkie’s mom (I mean there is no third sister). So it means that Bo-Katan was probably a child when her big sister got pregnant with Obi-Wan. Probably, she witnessed her sister going into hidding to have her baby to try and not become a pariah. I figure this would explain Bo-Katan’s resentment against Jedis and particularly Obi-Wan as he didn’t reach out to her sister nor stepped up for her nephew (with whom there isn’t such a big age gap)
· So, I have seen this theory going around the internet and read it in some fanfics. It makes sense to me and would explain many things in Bo-Katan’s behaviour. THIS IS WHERE THE TW BEGINS (Grooming) : I figured that Bo-Katan probably met Pre Vizsla after the civil war as he was part of the clan of the enemy. He probably quickly became her mentor, an authority figure that she felt like could replace her dad (she definitely has daddy issues). He probably made her feel understood and special, filling the whole of her parents and Satine’s absence. I honestly believe in the grooming theory saying that he manipulated her into a relationship and death watch to take over the throne of Mandalore taking advantage of her status as the duchess’ sister (as he knew it would humiliate the latter).
· TW (SA) Bo probably became very secretive and broke contact with her sister, probably experiencing quite a lot of anxiety : as groomed individuals cannot give consent she was victim of SA. One proof of that would be that “imfamous” butt slap she gave Ahsoka upon meeting her (which is also SA). This sexualized behaviour is not appropriate for a teen or young adult.
* Her exposure to this type of trauma probably made her feel like she felt invicible to danger and that is when she developed a violent, criminal behaviour (let’s not forget she participated in the burning of a village and the enslavement of its inhabitants).
· Then Pre Vizsla died by the hands of Darth Maul and she started feeling grief but also probably self doubt, being hit with what she had done and went back to her sister. She did horrible things while in DW and probably enjoyed them back then through her broken perception of things.
· Then Satine died and she felt guilty for her death because obviously she she betrayed her. This changed her deeply as she was bombarded with her overwhelming feelings of blame, regret, guilt and confusion, probably struggling with TW drug or alcohol abuse, self harm or suicidal thoughts.
· She ended up leading her people, most of them probably hating her for what happened to their planet, Pre Vizsla and her sister, for Maul and of course later, the Purge… She was not her sister and I don’t think that she had ever thought through becoming the duchess of Mandalore. She definitely wanted the power but probably was not ready for that responsibility. Her people respected her because she was royalty, nothing more. They did not have love for her, nor respect : hence why they all left her once she didn’t have the darksaber anymore.
· All those events had a huge impact on her adult life considering she had lost the majority of people she cared for and struggled to build strong and healthy relationships
She definitely struggles to be vulnerable around others tie that scene with Grogu where she asks him what he is looking at in episode 2)
· When it comes to romantic relationships, I picture her having an avoidant attachment style used her sex appeal as a tool to manipulate men AND women (we stan a bisexual queen), to feel in control. I feel like if she started feeling someone catching feelings for her, she would flee (that’s probably what happened with Axe as many of us assume that he was in love with her and was her ex FWB because of his bitterness and her reluctance when talking about him).
· When it comes to her relationship with Din (sorry I’m a Dinbo shipper) I feel like when she met him he struck her as really different to the other guys she met :
-first because she had been forced to reflect on her past and draw lessons from it while she was alone on Sundary for two years
-then because he wore a helmet : so she did not see his face and struggled to sexualize him which forced her to focus on who he is inside and really bond with him on an intimate level (here I speak of real emotional intimacy and not sex)
- because he, himself, did not consider her as a piece of meat (I picture Din as asexual or demi-sexual) and he quickly showed her he cared about her and not her title, showing true loyalty to her for the first time in forever (except from her relationship with Ursa Wren and Ahsoka, I assume she didn’t have very deep friendships, most of them probably being shallow)
-because of Grogu, Din is starting to shift from an avoidant attachment style to a secure one and is way less guarded than in the first season
-so I guess she is intriged by this new form of intimacy with him, the way she feels at ease with him and not feel like she need to be hypervigilant (the scene in the cave where they sit super close shows that). Both of them lost their parents quite young and I feel like it could be a shared experience they could bond over or already have unconsciously.
When it comes to her relationship with Ahsoka :
PLS WRITTERS I BEG OF YOU show me a real healthy female relationship without toxicity and where they support each other no matter what.

so now that I have finished the Aubrey-Maturin series (first time all the way through) I keep having Fic Ideas which I am not equipped to write and the main one that will not let me go is the “characters swapped with their kid selves” trope. I am actually not sure what this trope is called. deaging? where magic plot stuff causes the characters to be in their present role and location but suddenly with their younger body and mind. I’m thinking like ages 13-15 actually
(possibly this idea is because I once read one for Star Trek TOS that was very good and I persist in linking the two series quite strongly)
Mr Midshipman Aubrey is pretty confident that he can handle this. Skipping directly to captain overnight is basically what he dreams about anyway. It’s a slight problem that among the memories he hasn’t retained are things like “everybody’s names” or “where we are supposed to be going” or “who we are and aren’t at war with,” but he’ll catch up quickly and carry on! :)
Once convinced this really is the Captain, his subordinates are, shall we say, slightly more concerned. But the Doctor is sure to put it right! Just like the gunner’s brains.
…it appears the Doctor is also like 13 now.
Problems ensue.
I don’t think young Jack and young Stephen would actually get along very well. Which would be interesting. Young Jack speedruns The Problems of Command; young Stephen worries about what he’s doing in the Royal Navy at all, what all these coded papers are supposed to say, and (once he works it out) why his future self is apparently a spy for England what on earth….
(I don’t have a super clear concept of Stephen’s childhood and when he lived where doing what; possibly this actually works better if he’s only regressed to medical student. You know when he was Definitely Just Studying Medicine in Paris in 1789)
they probably end up confiding in each other/working together anyway; possibly this is what the plot magic mcguffin required of them to be brought back to their own correct ages in the first place.
but for a brief period Killick, who is always compared to a short-tempered nanny anyway, gets to live out his true destiny
anyway *holds vague plot idea* I just think it’s neat

I think I read a while ago on reddit that you had a madoka magica au for re zero, do you still think about it? I can Imagine Subaru taking the place of Homura but the rest of the cast is harder to place. It's a fun thought exercise though.
WAIT wow your ask sent me down memory lane wkdndn i forgot i even had a madoka magica au in the works for a while. i made it in like late 2020 and last worked on it in early-mid 2021 hah mostly bc my skill with writing and art didnt match with how big of an idea a multichap plotty crossover/fusion au was and i was still just dipping my toes into more ambitious ideas!! but id love to revisit it again now that i got more practice 👍
i like read your ask then went WAIT A MINUTE I DO HAVE A MADOKA MAGICA AU and then i skimmed through my old google doc plot outline for it in a frenzy. but also i used to write in yellow comic sans at the time so i wont subject you to my old terrible (affectionate) writing habits too much. but i think its funny how i had some notes on vague (and Dead Serious) ideas for witch form symbolism and i just found this yellow comic sans monstrosity:
2020/21 me was on some drugs probably LMAO 😭😭 but given madoka magica’s canon content that is probably a good thing if youre writing serious madoka magica fic.
also i did have a tiny bit of finished writing for it. here is the old synopsis past me came up with:
Stumbling across magic and witches, fourteen-year-old Natsuki Subaru follows his new friends and a mischievous cat spirit into a world where a single contract could grant you your greatest wish.
And at the end of it all, he really should’ve known this from the start: wishes always come with a cost.
i think that currently id probably change up this synopsis a bit if i worked on it again but it aint bad i think 👍 and yes youre right subaru would def be in homuras role for this fic… 😔 anyone whos seen both madoka magica and rezero would immediately make that connection i think hah they have. Similarities, as we know 😔
and i deaged some of the rezero cast as you can see hah. not sure if id keep that but i think an important aspect of madoka magica is that the main characters are that young. it helps add to some of their decisions and adds to the tragedy and whatnot. that and like. targeting vulnerable young girls, Literal Children, knowing that most would make a wish and sell their souls in a heartbeat and then easily be crushed by trauma without being able to fight back much, you know? :,) and then theyd make Lots and Lots of despair to harvest… and madoka was meant as a magical girl deconstruction and magical girls iirc tend to be arounddd early teens/preteens!! ill talk a bit more later on how id try to do this au with deaged rz cast hah.
also i did have a small drabble written for this au!!
The boy, no older than fourteen, stands there with an eerie sense of calm.
His frame is seemingly scrawny and lean, dawning dark clothing reminiscent of a mixture between a tracksuit and a school uniform - even if it’s adorned with golden ribbons and stripes - with a whip attached to the belt at his waist. Draped over that is a cloak, the hood of it casting a shadow over messy black hair and a cold expression. His keen eyes, emphasized by the deep bags underneath, narrow at the sight of Puck, mean and brimming with distaste.
With a steady hand, he raises a pistol to Puck’s head.
The moonlight shines dimly through the broken windows and onto the shards littered all over the floor. A beam illuminates a metal contraption, its appearance similar to a shield, strapped to the boy’s forearm.
“You know, I don’t quite recall making a contract with you,” Puck muses cheerily, though an undercurrent of a threat weaves itself into his tone. He stares down the barrel without fear, his sharp teeth revealed in his smile. “Who are you, really? And why are you so upset that I’ve been getting close with Lia? Jealous much?”
“Don’t you dare call her that,” the boy replies instead, bitterly spitting out each and every word. “Don’t you dare pretend that you only have her best interests at heart, or that you really care for her like a father figure would. It makes me sick.” He sneers as he digs the cool metal of the gun harder into Puck’s fur. “Because if you make even just one mention of creating a contract with her, or if you even come near her… I’ll definitely make sure that you regret it.”
yeah so. past me made puck kyubey apparently 😔👍 and if i revisited this au im not sure if i would keep subarus character development to be Exactly the same (ie it was very greedbaru/pridebaru/homura inspired) but this drabble was a fun exercise at the time!!
but anyway i will ramble about some more ideas i had for this au under the cut!! turned out past me had A Lot of ideas.
yes so this au was like. a fusion of sorts so yes i was assigning rz characters certain roles, blending worldbuilding together, etc etc but the general plot sort of followed the general story of the main madoka magica plot from the main show to rebellion!! it was like vaguely modernish too, but you know, madoka likes to be Creative with its backgrounds (see: the infinite amount of crazy chairs everywhere, which im still very fond of to this day) and also rz vainglory/school if has its fantasy world cast mixed in with subarus parents still being there iirc and a whole bunch of other details too (like beatrice being subarus adopted sister iirc?). so i was going the vainglory-ish route here in terms of “how modern is this world?” 👍
the main cast i was focusing on was gonna be subaru (homura), emilia (madoka), rem (sayaka), ram, beatrice, felt, and reinhard. also puck as kyubey haah and satella as walprugisnacht aka the giant witch at the end of the main show. i havent seen madoka in a bit wkdn i gotta rewatch. but anyway!! felt and reinhard got a mix of mami and kyokos roles narrative wise yeah.
quick rundown on their characters is that i wanted to stick to the rz cast’s canon characterization as much as possible while leaving room for fun experimentation!! and if theyre still younger than normal canon here—subarus still got his Big Ego/Im The Main Character mindset but in that way thats specific to his little kid self bc he hasnt gotten Completely Depressed yet (think like. arc 7-8 type stuff), reinhards still stuck in the middle of watching his dad gradually deteriorate, felts even Younger and still trying to find her footing a bit, rem is Guiltily and enviously trying to live up to ram’s Golden Childness (this is pre-Incident That Kills Their Whole Family). and emilia has lived a lonely life in the forest somewhere with no one for company :,) i cant remember if i had some Magic Mindfuckery ideas for her backstory here but ive definitely had ideas for modernizing her backstory for other aus like this!! but either way emilias family is still dead ;-; and i do consider like. the idea that modern emilia would have albinism, especially when there is discrimination in place against people with albinism that is a little similar to emilias canon struggle with her appearance so a modern take of emilia being that she is someone with albinism would be Very Relevant!! but!! not sure if id go all the way with that bc its a sensitive topic that needs to be treated with care and i dont personally have albinism 👍 or i could go the magic route and go “emilia looks like a previous magical girl thats become the most powerful witch yet….” ie satella ofc. so emilia would still be a bit of a “red flag” to other magical people.
but yes emilia wished for. im not sure but probably smth like “i wish not to be lonely anymore”…………. and then she got her wish granted via having magical girl/boy friends and puck!!!!! thisll totally end happily.
and quick note on reinhard is i didnt have much plot ideas for him yet but i considered different ideas for his backstory!! maybe theres some magic fuckery and theresia was a magical girl once? no clue how that works but it was an Idea i had for sure. also various ideas to modernize the Astrea Family Drama (dont worry the accidental indirectly/directly causing your family member’s death thing would still be there wkdndh this is an important detail to me.) but regardless of whats going on with reinhards backstory his wish was a naive little kid wish!! he wanted to be a hero who helps people ;-; good going reinhard ;-;
the entire plot of this au in general was divided in half, first half would be the first timeline where things go wrong. subarus gonna be the pov and hes the audience surrogate bc hes new to the world of magical girls/boys and no one in the group 100% knows the ugly truth yet!! and like in canon emilia/madoka has already become a magical girl here. emilia is also already close with puck—and emilia is the one person puck has genuine fondness for ;-; and i had a Lot of ideas for what exactly went wrong here—i had elsa and meili planned as witches? and i think i considered disemboweling felt :<<<< this is very sad bc her family gave her away to save her bc they were in danger (yes just like in canon rz) but then later felt had her life threatened or smth? and like mami, felt wished to keep living. but the wording felt used was wanting to “live strong”…………….. well she sure got it by fighting elsa valiantly but still losing 😔
also ok the first person to become a witch is beatrice. i had like wild ideas with beatrice—the possibility that echidna still made beatrice and puck and that beatrice couldve been a failed—whats the word for the creatures in madoka that collect/cause magical girls??? incubators i think?? yeah that. because whatre the two things a little kids gonna probably trust?? a cute cat creature and a tiny little girl offering free wishes, probably. and of course beatrice got assigned by her biomom echidna to look after echidnas library maybe. bc echidnas funny like that and beatrice didnt work out as an incubator so now shes gonna generate soooo much despair when she realizes that there is no That Person + the truth of magical girls/boys and what beatrice was meant to be used for….
yes more various shit hits the fan bc rem and rams canon witch cult backstory… i had plans to adjust it for this au and make it happen In Real Time. and also rem’s wish was probably something along the lines of wanted to be needed. and Better. so not just Like Ram. but rem wanted to be More than ram. which rem is guilty about but thats still what she wants so she wishes for it away from rams eyes. ofc rams feelings on this is that she just wants her sister to treasure herself and be safe and whatnot but rem is kinda in her pre-witch cult trauma mode and Oops now their town is destroyed in flames and their family is dead ;-;;; not sure how else id modernize rem and rams backstory but yes this is. this is how their plot went in that first timeline wkdnd. and ram is injured in some way ;-;;;
yes and then rem you know pulls a sayaka and goes a little crazy about everything bc beatrices whole ordeal already revealed how fucked they all are and then rem and rams Trauma just happened so rem feels like shit!! and then she becomes a witch too oops ;-; and then reinhard decides to be the hero and sacrifices himself so emisuba can escape ;-;; or at least that was my plan at the time. but yeah rem became better (a magical girl. bc ram didnt feel like making a wish bc her only wish would be wanting rems happiness but she didnt want to Cheat That. she wanted rem to find it on her terms. except rem became “better” and bigger than ram by being a witch also oops. also i think i still had vague plans to include rem being Obsessed with subaru to contrast what will later be subarus emilia obsession haha) and then reinhard. is the hero. </3
satella comes in somewhere at the end. she used to be a magical girl but she became a witch and shes Crazy Powerful for reasons i have forgotten now 👍 but i definitely wanted to have more shenanigans going on with her backstory to keep that sort of emilia-satella-subaru mystery connection. and theyre still connected anyway bc emisuba inevitably lose to satella bc shes too powerful ;-; emilia is gonna die and puck realizes OH SHIT I SHOULDNT BE FEELING LOVE BUT I DO GENUINELY LOVE EMILIA I CANT DEAL WITH THIS. WITH HER DYING. ID RATHER DESTROY EVERYTHING THAN LET THAT HAPPEN. and ofc subarus also in agreement bc oh god oh god—and yeah. subaru hasnt made a wish until this point but he makes a contract with puck to promise to save Everyone. like subarus promise in canon right before he dies for the first time you know? bc then he dies.
and wooooo the time loop officially begins!!! i had more ideas but i have typed lots on this post already akfnd maybe ill save it for another time if people are interested.
but yes thats all thats the au!!!! i am not familiar with stuff like magia record yet sadly ;-;; but if i ever wanted to expand the au thats def One option 👍 bc WOW the rz cast would be such a goddamn gold mine for those fucking incubators. little kid felix argyle would be a Top Tier candidate for them. like can you imagine???? thatd be the biggest disaster of all time ;-;;; and also theres Lots of possibilities for various witches the cast can fight!! very fun stuff its why i chose elsa and meili and satella :o !! but yes id consider exploring other candidates for magical girls and boys as well bc WOW felix would go insane here.
#rezero#re:zero#ask#ty for the ask yes this was fun to answer and i hope u liked reading all of this if u did!! :o#my writing#madoka magica au

Fic Finder
~*~
1. Hello, I was hoping that you lovely people can help me find an ao3 fic that I’ve been searching for. WWX is brought back the same way as canon but it wasn’t MXY who summoned him but an original character. WWX ends up in Cloud Recesses because he interacts with LXC AND LWJ a lot in the story. The twist is that the person who brought WWX back hated him so much that he wanted WWX to suffer really badly. WWX figures it out/knows. It does end up with a happy ending. Thank you!~
Hello, beautiful people. Im the anon who submitted #1 from the latest fic finder post. Unfortunately the fic I’m looking for is not Beauty and the Boot. The original character who summoned WWX was male and hated the Yiling Patriarch. The fic had a lot of angst as well if that helps🥲
NOT FOUND! ❤️Beauty and the Boot by PTchan (T, 44k, wangxian, summoned by f!oc, Canon Divergence, Romantic Comedy, Genderbending, Denial, Fem!WWX, WangXian kids, Crack-ish, WIP)
FOUND! A Storm of Laughter in the Stillness of the Jingshi by OnlyMeAndMyBones (T, 73k, WangXian, Angst with a Happy Ending, Hurt/Comfort, Injury, Recovery, Pain, Mental Illness, Depression, PTSD, Rehabilitation, slow burn but significantly less so than canon, miscommunication is still a thing tho, Empathy, Guilt, Forgiveness, it's not THAT dark actually)

2. Hey. I've been looking for a fic that I read I while ago for so long. WWX accidentally sets off a talisman and gets deaged.? I remember that he is stuck in that form for a while and takes zidian from JC. Later when he finds out about LWJs scars on his back he threatens the lan elders with it and says something like this isn't even hia weapon and imagine if he dad one of his own.. thanks bye
FOUND? Silver & Gold by beeswaxing (E, 162k, wangxian, Mojo’s post)
~*~
3. Hi! I'm trying to find a wangxian fanfic I read long ago. It's where LWJ is engaged to JYL and WWX is engaged to JZX. I remember a specific part where JZX got jealous when he saw WWX and LWJ hanging out a lot and told WWX that he is his and not LWJs. WWX took offense to this and punched JZX telling him he cant control him. Endgame is ofc wangxian but yeah. I cant find it 😭 @journalsofagoddess
FOUND? Neatly Arranged by thunderwear (T, 45k, WangXian, Arranged Marriage, Angst with a Happy Ending, lwj’s mother is here but only briefly, RIP, Shenanigans, Fix-It, of sorts, Canonical Character Death, but not all, did i forget to tag pining, because this fic is like 90 percent pining, Hurt/Comfort)
~*~
4. Hello! Thank you for your hard work! I'm trying to find a fic there LWJ is a youtuber, and he does these 'day in the life of a college student' where he's just perfect at everything- meticulous, on top of his life and studies, and ultra competent. WWX, at the same college, then posts a response video where he shows what's it really like as a student and its just a troll/spoof of LWJ's vids where he cries like three times a day and eats junk food, etc. This goes on for months, with many videos and WWX accidentally becomes popular. Then wangxian meet and fall in love about it. NHS and JC help WWX with the vids, and i think the summary said something like 'three idiots make a youtube channel'. Anyway, hope someone can put together better search parameters than me. Thank you! @somevariationofgay
FOUND! like, comment, share & subscribe by detectorist (T, 22k, WangXian, Modern AU, College/University, YouTube, Social Media, Flirting, Humour, Banter, Getting Together, First Kiss, Texting, so much texting, Youtubers For Social Justice, The Gang Gets Political, Competitive Flirting Via The Medium Of Youtube, it's about the yearning, YouTube Rivals To Lovers)

5. Hi! I recently found this page and it looks amazing. I’ve been looking for the AO3 au fic. The premise is that in this world, people are able to essentially enter their minds kind of like a vr situation and create worlds. This has become a very lucrative business. Wei ying entered a simulation that was MDZS and as a result he entered a 13 month coma. Everyone thought he was dead. But he retired from the business. But then the juniors call him in for “one last mission” which is basically the yi city arc. and he and lan zhan work through some unspoken tension and then they get together. @awkwardly-cry-ing-in-the-corner
FOUND! some lovely, perilous thing by varnes (E, 24k, WangXian, Inception Fusion, Criminal Associates To Lovers, Heist Case Fic)
~*~
6. Hey, it's me again haha so I read this ff long time ago and it was soo good unfortunately i cant remember the title
So like, the cultivation world needs yiling laozu's help and they tried to summon him using mo xuanyu but they failed since yl lz appeared in his own original body and not in mxy. Anyway so history repeats itself, wwx knows everybody especially lan zhan cuz he his "friend" that time. They became curious about wwx, they found his journal and he kept talking about this certain friend eventually they found out the friend's name is lan zhan lan wangji. Time skip they found out that lwj reincarnated, he looks exactly the same as wwx's friend. Lxc said it was impossible cuz all their ancestors died because of an explosion that was caused by wwx bavk in the day.
There is this spefic scene, wwx kept blaming himself because he was the reasom why lz died, ok so lz married a woman (arranged marriage) and had child with her, wy was heartbroken and told lz that he has feelings for him, lz also has feelings for him, so when lz heard that the sects will have a siege in burial mounds he went there and protected wy then something happened and the surroundings explode.
Anyway, they have come to a conclusion that wy is an immortal, he took care of lz's child, lz reincarnated he fought really hard to keep his body and appearance the same
Thank you thank youuuuuuuu for all your hard work @hellothere9597

7. Hi hi, I hope y'all are doing well ^^ Ive recently been thinking about a fic i read in late 2019/early 2020 and I was hoping to get some help finding it? What I remember about it is that after Mo Manor, wwx doesnt go to Dafan mountain and instead travels until he finds a village and starts working there as a farmer. wn is also there after a while and he helps wwx. lwj visits the village but doesnt recognize wwx at first. If anyone knows what fic this is id be vv grateful! @storming-raumo
FOUND? focal, filler, and line by bosbie (T, 26k, wangxian, canon divergence, flower shop au, fluff, hurt/comfort, pining, falling in love, WWX is not recognized in Dafan mountain, slice of life, WIP) wwx is not a farmer but the rest checks out
~*~
8. Fic finder! I binged All Of The Yiling Wei Sect AUs recently and they all kind of blurred together in my brain, so I THINK all of this happens in the same fic but I could be wrong and if I am I'm so, so sorry. In the fic Wei Wuxian very briefly worked with the talisman scammer to sell actual Yiling Laozu talismans for a decent penny, then one of the Wen uncles convinced him they should set up their own stall. They made talisman paper out of the burial mounds bamboo and it was red. There was a scene when the Wen went on trial and Wen Ning was able to speak to the people in the room, proving that he's cognizant and not a mindless puppet. The Jiang ended up taking the Wei as a subordinate sect I believe? And WWX started to make friends with Jin Guangyao. @lewiscarrolatemybrain
FOUND! Grave dirt by esama (T, 92k, wangxian, canon divergence, necromancy, demonic cultivation, farming, found family, pre-slash, politics, Fix-it of sorts, yilingwei sect au)
~*~
9. I am looking for a fic, maybe it is part of the Amnesia rec list, or if not it should be! Wwx has lost about 2 months of memory. Turns out that in that time he and LZ got engaged. He tries to work out if this is a real engagement or not. There is also a discussion conference at CR and Jiang Cheng is there. I particularly remember the scene where Wwx finds out the engagement wasn't real, goes to JC and cries about it. Then JC storms to the Jingshi to shout at LZ for making WY cry. I love that scene, but who wrote it again? Thanks for helping me out! @kesterling
FOUND! put your heart where your mouth is by protos_metazu_ison (T, 20k, wangxian, JC & WWX, post-canon, misunderstanding, memory loss, pining & insecure WWX, happy ending, twin prides of yunmeng feels, fluff & angst, protective JC)
~*~
10. Hi, I'm looking for a fic where the sword goes through both JYL and JC at Nightless City. WWX takes them both back to Lotus Pier and essentially locks the place behind a barrier, but the sect itself doesn't really mind. I think it was one chapter in a collection but I can't be sure.
FOUND? Chapter 2 of Cosmic by apathyinreverie (T, 10k, wangxian, JC & WWX & JYL, everyone lives au, yunmeng sibling dynamics, protective yunmeng Jiang sect, romance, smitten LWJ, oblivious WWX, powerful WWX, possessive LWJ, soft WWX, streetkid WWX, time travel fix-it, modern setting)

11. Hi! Love the work you all do. Keep the good work. So for a fic finder... I've been looking for this fic I started reading a while ago but then had to stop. I'm pretty sure I bookmarked it but alas I haven't had any luck finding it. That's why I'm putting my faith in you guys and the readers. So this is what I remember: it was a WIP, it was post canon, wangxian, JC and JL are in CR, JC want a fight, WWX said a few truth and JL goes to WWX, it is said that JYL went to the battle to die on purpose. @multitudeofmes
FOUND! What Happens When The Self-Sacrifing Idiot Snaps by WiFi_Stalker (Not rated, 1k, wangxian, post-canon, not Jiang friendly, not YZY friendly, not JC friendly, not JYL friendly, WWX snaps, WIP)
~*~
12. I'm looking for a fic from 1-2 years ago, in English, was a WIP, where LWJ is Chief Cultivator and WWX is wandering on his own. WWX meets a nobleman who invites WWX to stay with him and encourages him to use his cultivation, to the benefit of the common people. The fic was from LWJ's perspective (I think?) and mostly took place in letters exchanged, with some exposition before or after a letter. Wangxian implied, not confirmed; fic author debating confirmation. Does the fic still exist? @acasualgeek
FOUND? To Start A Bridge From A Single Log by ChilianXianzi (T, 4k, wangxian, WWX & OMC, post-canon, chief cultivator LWJ, inventor WWX, politics, epistolary, pining, jealous LWJ, sugar baby WWX, WIP)
~*~
13. Hi! I need help finding this fic. It's a special agent (James bond style) Lan Wangji and Q Wei Wuxian. I tried looking everywhere and with every tag I could think of on AO3 but I could only find the one where Wei Wuxian is a 007. I remember it starts out with Lan Wangji in the car watching a house or something and then Wei Wuxian talks to him over an ear com. He had to take MianMian's place as she was busy/ on pregnancy leave? I can't remember. Also, Wei Wuxian gets shocked when he realizes Lan Wangji always brings back his kit in perfect condition. Thank you!!
FOUND? 💖 some life yet unspent by Fahye (E, 28k, wangxian, spies & secret agents au)
~*~
14. Is the one fic, where Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji dual cultivate a Yin core in Wei Wuxian still up on AO3? Wei Wuxian, before he knows he’s going to dual cultivate with Lan Wangji, has nightmares that he’s going to have to dial cultivate with Wen Qing. Lan Wangji has to rail him five times in a night.
FOUND! i had to abandon myself (you took all of me) by justdoityoufucker (E, 27k, WIP, WangXian, Canon Divergence, Burial Mounds Settlement Days, Novel Characterizations, Philosophy, Illnesses, Chronic Pain, Cultivation Sect Politics, Dual Cultivation, LWJ fucks a core into WWX, On Hiatus) might be this? Unfortunately it's on hiatus right now :[
~*~
15. Hello! I don’t know if this fic is still up. I couldn’t find it so… I can remember some details of this fic, but it’s basically a shameless Lan Wangji time-travel fanfic where he changes the whole story by saving Wei Wuxian from the beginning in Cloud Recesses. I forgot the name… I remember that part of the summary was the line; “If you give me a kiss, I’ll let you go.” Or something like that…
FOUND! could be the deleted "OOC!" by A_flower_in_the_snow. It was reuploaded on Wattpad
~*~
16. i read a fic a while ago where WWX survived the seige but lost most of his memory and ended up finding a shrine and moving in there. He stayed there with a-yuan for years taking care of the shrine. Eventually LWJ found him. thats really all i remember but if you could help me find it that would be amazing!! thank you!!! :)
FOUND? #16 was This House is Loved by Ribena but has been deleted

~*~
17. Hi first of all thank you for your womderful work i always find good fics to read because of this blog next please help me find this fic ive been serching all over. This fic is a role reversal instead of wwx its lwj who died. I remember that he died before the 33rd whip and a lan member got guilty and brought him back.

18. i'm sure i'll find it before this is answered, but just in case, i remembered a line from a fic but i don't remember what it's called. it's something like "wwx imagined sizhui's face on a series of progressively younger children. this is what he may have looked like at 13; at 9; at 6. this is how your child grew without you." thank you!!!!! @kisskissgotohell

~*~
19. Hello! Thank you so much to all of the mods for what you do! I’m hoping to find this post-canon mpreg fic that I read from a while back. WWX didn’t immediately tell LWJ about the pregnancy out of fear that it won’t push through or something. Some people were alive (like Wen Qing who secretly did WWX’s checkup and told him about the pregnancy) but not JYL. WWX also stopped drinking wine and started eating healthier to ensure the baby’s growth? Which kinda made LWJ suspicious? There was also a part where WWX visited JC in Lotus Pier, and JC was able to guess at WWX’s pregnancy and they had a really nice conversation and reconciliation. I’m sorry if some of these details might have been from other mpreg fics that I unknowingly confused with the one I’m looking for, but I hope the others are accurate enough to help! Thank you so much again! Y’all are a blessing!
FOUND? Unexpected Lullaby by SilverStark (T, 30k, WangXian, JC & WWX, Minor Original Character(s), Unplanned Pregnancy, Post-Canon, Mpreg, Non-ABO, Fluff, Established Relationship, Reconciliation, Family, Dual Cultivation Baby)
~*~
20. I'm looking for a fanfic that the modern Wei Wuxian ends up traveling to the past because of a book he found. I also remember that it turns out that all the characters that are dead come back to life
FOUND? Could be the deleted series by yareyarejojosan. Someone uploaded the author's works to Google Drive

20 questions!
thanks for the tags @gaeasun @saltsanford @purgetrooperfox <3 love you guys
How many works do you have on AO3?
75
What’s your total AO3 word count?
238,592 (ooh I'mma celebrate when I hit a quarter million)
What fandoms do you write for?
mostly Star Wars! I wrote fic for some other fandoms early on but we don't talk about those
What are your top five fics by kudos?
your heartbeat's a countdown - crack fic in which the Jedi know the clones are a trap and try to avoid them at all costs
Necessary - a whumpy Voltron Klance fic I wrote after the first season (before the show went to hell)
their days are darker - in which Wolffe doesn't know how to drop anything and Fox is having the worst two days of his life
the broken-hearted rang their steeple bells - tropey Witcher kinkmeme fill that for some baffling reason has tons of kudos
exploitation, hesitation - short oneshot in which Fox assumes General Kenobi is just like his natborn superior officers and reacts accordingly
Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I used to reply to every single one (unless it was just emojis) but then I fell off and now I feel bad :( I read them all though! and they are so treasured! one day I will make it through the backlog
What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
ooh see despite writing a lot of angst, I almost always write happy endings, so maybe I'll take no gold, I'll take no silver (please read the tags on that one). maybe spit some blood at the camera is pretty sad too, actually
What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
all of them!! yayyyy! even if it's not spelled out, I usually resolve things because that's the world I want to live in! every fic is a fix-it fic
Do you get hate on fics?
not really, mostly just people asking when I'm going to finish, although I have seen people complaining that my version of Fox/Corries is banal and overdone which like yeah. I agree. but my brain won't let me move on.
Do you write smut? If so what kind?
hell yeah I do! I don't know what "what kind" means - I write characters fucking, never x reader and rarely OCs; and it's usually somewhat kinky because I just can't not
Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
I've written a few fusions/AUs - elysium is as far as to is a Gladiator AU, everyone wants a double feature is a Pacific Rim AU, and more human than human is a Bladerunner AU. but I've never done a straight-up crossover, although there are a few bouncing around in my brain (namely, the GAR joins the Decepticons and another where Boromir meets Rex and falls in love)
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
yeah I've had real problems with people plagiarizing fics, from lifting whole sections of dialogue to copying really specific scenes
Have you ever had a fic translated?
nope, but one got a podfic
Have you ever cowritten a fic before?
yeah I cowrote hold me like a grudge and sometimes a parrot talks (unfinished) with the fabulous @postapocalyptic-cryptic!
What’s your all-time favourite ship?
oh man. I love Quinlan/Fox to death. but I will admit that I was Stucky trash from the very beginning.
What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
ooh there's a lot. Mace/Fox fic, sometimes a parrot talks, deaged Corries, chroma...
What are your writing strengths?
hm. I don't know. I think I'm good at characterization and dialogue?
What are your writing weaknesses?
fukcin plot beyond "there is hurt and then there is comfort". and also explaining more about people's emotions, like, I know what they're feeling but I need to tell other people
Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I just use google translate, I'm sorry
First fandom you wrote for?
oh boy oh fuck. The first fandom I ever wrote for was Phantom of the Opera when I was in eighth grade. go ahead and laugh
Favourite fic you’ve ever written?
uhhh. aaa? um. probably unexplain the unforgivable, but I also really liked how a once and future sun turned out
no pressure tags for @postapocalyptic-cryptic @meerlichtz @milfmisspiggy @catboydogma @jaigeye

omg Angie that was exactly what i meant and i loved it! I also adore Lebanon's favourite "are they?aren't they?" couple and imagining samdean co-parenting is such a delight. "If the baby looked like Sam, Dean would have like 12 disorders" got a laugh but it's so true i don't know how he'd handle it. It's similarly what makes me also like the idea of Dean having to deal with a deaged Sam just to see how gobsmacked he'd be. (Also those mommy recs? For a friend? 👀)
1. Oh good I’m glad it resonated! Truly, Dean would be against those baby chest carriers until the little guy was born, and then he’d not only constantly be wearing him strapped in, he’d also have one arm wrapped around at all times. Also that baby would not have a nursery, Dean would put the crib in their bedroom so he could be as close as possible, sit on the rocking chair at night just staring (Sam gets it, at least enough not to press the issue).
2. About A Boy with deaged Sammy: they’d have to end the show right there! Dean would run off into the night with itty Sammy, let some other hunter deal with the missing people. (/hj, I don’t actually remember what their relationship was like prior to that ep, all I know is it was VERY funny to me that they had a solution to the mark but Sam was like 🥺 “I am not baby?? no more Big Bro? Unacceptable.”
3. Fic Recs
Haha, well! So many flavors... I’m throwing a huge mixed bag here, read what sounds interesting, skip what doesn’t.
Vice and Wish by thatsakitkat (incomplete, ABO A!Sam/O!Dean, 42k)
One of my all time favorites. It’s a little OOC, but Sam’s uh, canonical entitlement toward Dean/Dean’s body and resources is so so sexy. Cockblocking him, spending his money, joining him in Dean’s subconscious against Dean’s protests. Spn was allergic to having a consistent stance on souls, but if you largely view soulless!Sam as Sam without empathy, then.. Yeah. I think the Sam in this fic/universe is realistically ruthless in getting what he wants (a baby in Dean).
(Taste Every Fruit by the same author doesn’t have pregnancy, but is a lactation fic and uhh. Quite good.)
Nesting orphan_account (ABO A!John/O!Dean, 12k)
It’s been a minute since I read this, but I remember it being sweet, in a conservative fantasy way. Stanford era. Forced retirement. Small town. Also slightly OOC but like above, comes with the universe.
homebody by hellhoundsprey (ABO A!Jared/O!Jensen (background Jared/Ruth and Jensen/Tahmoh, 18k)
Listen, if you’re hesitant about rpf, this author writes it very much “vaguely inspired by the PR personsona of X”. People have been fantasizing about celebrities forever, heck, the SPN cast joke about rpf at cons.
Anyway. Great fic. Darling sex kitten/tease and “Trying to be good” dynamic.
Share the Spoils Ch 2 by vintagedean (Fem!Dean/Sam, 2k)
Recently published, Deanna finding out if she’s pregnant and what she and Sam can do if that’s the case. Pushy teen Sam, distracted Deanna. "John's looming shadow" deserves its own character tag.
the need to choose by deadlybride (Hal!Dean/Sam, 3k)
Canon (post s7) divergence. The author has this halman universe which is similar to ABO but not quite; Dean’s something like an omega but not ✨feminine 👧🌷. Still, one of the things that the author does is realistic sex descriptions/pretty explicit naming of body parts: Dean has a clit, cervix, etc. Explores what having a baby would mean for them, in the context of SPN’s vessel plotlines. Sad, longing, open ended.
They Think I'm Possessed by deandatsgay (Dean/John, Dean/Sam 27k)
No pregnancy; Dean raised as Sam’s mom (thus inclusion in this list). Dark, dirty bad wrong porn. I love it.
#fic recs#deanjohn#wincest#...i am perhaps realizing i read a lot of nipple play that doesn't necessarily mean mommy!dean#I have an early morning but i KNOW there's more out there that i'll should try to add at some point#for now#have fun nonnie ;)

So right at the end it gets potentially skeevy. This is some of the actual fic so my agonised and irritating complaining makes more sense. But this what I mean about so much blether. There are many many words like this:
diligently opens the email Lorena sends. There’s an account of the court case from six years ago when the government was banned from putting the deaged into hotels for monitoring.
“Could be worse!” She has texted with three exclamation marks. “I’m glad you two can talk about football, and you can look out for him!”
He has never wanted to play football less. He wants to stay quietly here. Get to know this willowly new version of the man he thought he knew well.
There are a list of the tests that were done. Nothing major, blood tests, virus screening. Nothing was ever found. DNA was taken and compared. There is no difference between the samples. Lorena has noted that this journalists daughter was put in one of the hotels. ‘She drove so much if this!’ Lorena has written with more exclamation marks. ‘She should be an OBE!’
The courts insist that everything should be destroyed. The lawyers within the NHS had argued people were allowed to offer DNA, but they couldn’t insist. Plenty of people want to they say.
He types “deaged hotels” Into the search bar. There are first hand accounts where people have to admit they don’t actually remember anything. The staff working there saying it was a lot of video games, napping, and junk food.
The Spanish government site says five days is the longest reported case, but it’s often less than 48 hours.
The people who ran the hotels said they got used to a confused or angry adult, waking up somewhere strange, wanting it be away from all these kids.
The youngest reported case was 12. But this was from China and has an asterisk. The oldest reported case was 19. Uganda say they have never had cases.
It mostly occurs to people in their twenties. Psychologists wonder if it’s people wanting to escape pressure.
A report from the Ministry of Youth affairs suggests archly that younger people are just more welling to admit when they deage.
There rest of their reporting is stastical are very few cases in their 30 or 40’s. None reported from anyone in their sixties.
Helen Mirren was nominated for an Oscar playing a family living with the affects of a deageing, you can watch the movie for free on BBC plus.
It is more common in men. Less common with people with children or a partner.
He only skims the guardian articles. Boris Johnson photographed with his mouth open cuts funding to the special services. Scuttlebutt says this is to hide that the hotels that housed them were usually owned by his mates.
Jerermy Clarkson pens a lengthy screed about kids that won’t face up to their responsibilities that he doesn’t read. Princess Anne nods severly next to a group of nurses in one of the now decommissioned hotels.
There is a rumour site where people collect reports of celebrities who may have deaged. There are several footballers and he quickly posts a picture on Instagram of him and Win and the caption “protocols met! but I’m not alone!”
The seventh link down is high lighted becuase he has visited it before: “de-aged hotel- secret camera revals twinks caught getting…”
He clicks onto his homepage and clears his browsers history.

#if one of billy’s villians depowered him they come back to finish him off and billy has to get out of trouble as billy or expose his secret
My Top Posts in 2022:
#5
There had been many Champions before Billy Batson and each have left their mark on the being now known as Marvel. Each had something to give, something to share, their lives as complex and beautiful and tragic as any others.
Who are we if not a reflection of all we used to be?
Hey y'all! If you've read my story Split you know I have a lot of thoughts about Marvel and the Champions and how they worked, so this is a little taste of what is bouncing around my head for them.
This is the third of seven stories I've written for Billy Batson week 2022! Today's prompt was THE BOY AND THE MAN + “HENSHIN HERO”
I wanted to explore not just the duality of Billy and Marvel, but of Marvel and all his other hosts as well! Enjoy!

Summary:
In which Billy comes out to his teammates as transgender, attends his first Pride parade and ultimately decides it was worth the hassle
Hey y'all! Happy Pride month! Even though June is almost over, I wanted to write something for Pride. So this is a little cheesy, self indulgent one-shot of Billy getting some love and support from his teammates!
I'm also posting this for the following themes for the Pridewrite Challenge 2022: Parade (#pw8), Complicated (#pw25), Superheroes (#pw alt 28) Transmasc (#pw29)
I was going to do more stories for this challenge but June turned out to be a busy month and my fics always end up longer than I expect them to. But I'm happy to at least get something out for y'all!
This was partially inspired by all the wonderful trans Billy content I've been seeing on Tumblr recently, so thank you all for the lovely content!
I have so many queer Justice League headcannons if you want to hear them. And I'd love to hear your queer headcannons if you have them!

WAIT! there's a shazam lego movie!? what it about?
Yeah there is!
It's called Lego DC Shazam!: Magic and Monsters (2020). It was one of those direct to video releases so not a lot of people heard about it when it first came out.
It's about Shazam joining the Justice League and fighting the Monster Society of Evil! The whole League gets deaged and Shazam has to be the 'grown up'. It's really cute and wholesome with a lot of fun Easter eggs for DC fans that know the comics! And like all the DC Lego movies it pokes fun at the silly and weird things in comics. I definitely recommend it to Shazam fans!

Those short sentences of your preview got me hooked, can you tell us more of your new billy fic please?
Sure thing!
So that little preview was from an idea I've had for a while but put on the back burner while I finished a few other stories. It's a lot darker than most of my stuff. I'm calling it Pretty Little Thing.
The premise is that homeless kids are going missing around Fawcett, but no one is investigating. Billy realizes the police aren't going to help find his missing friends so he investigates on his own, and ends up putting himself in the crosshairs of the serial killer who has been abducting kids that no one is going to miss.
When the killer kidnaps him, Captain Marvel vanishes and the Justice League have to try to figure out what happened to their teammate while trying to keep the public (especially the people of Fawcett) from panicking over his disappearance. But because they don't know about Billy they hit major roadblocks in their search. They have to come to terms with the fact that they don't really know him at all. They don't know it but they are racing against the clock to save Billy from a killer that only a handful of homeless people in Fawcett even know exist.
I really wanted to explore the discrepancy between Captain Marvel and Billy, especially a homeless Billy who doesn't have anyone looking out for him. It would also deal heavily with Billy’s history of abuse and abandonment as well as his struggles as a homeless kid.
Like I said it'd be pretty heavy but it would be interesting to write. It's been ruminating in the back of my mind for months so I'm sure I'll write it at some point.

My #1 post of 2022
Billy had heard stories about the old house on Willow Creek Lane, mostly from kids at school. They said the place was haunted. That people had died there. That no one survived a night inside. Kids would dare each other to go inside, but everyone would chicken out before they did. All pretty standard stuff.
Investigating it was supposed to be simple, easy. But he quickly realized he might need some help from an expert.
Hey y'all! This is the second of seven stories I've written for Billy Batson week 2022! Today's prompt was ICONIC TEAM-UPS + DREAM TEAMS!
I've wanted to write a Billy and Constantine team up ever since I started writing fanfic, so I was so excited for this one! The fandom knows these two would be iconic together even if DC hasn't gotten the memo yet.

Max’s Situation
This fic isn't supposed to mock anyone or anything and I've tried to research into it as much as possible, especially trying to find a repeat of the part where max did have to retire but no such luck so I'm trying to remember from the actual race or just making it up slightly so sorry for any inaccuracies. I have adapted it also to suit the story line better as well. Hope you enjoy!
Summary:
After silverstone, Dan just wanted kick back and get on with the next race, possibly seeing max here and there. However, when something went wrong on the track that causes max to lose 18 years, it gets that more weirder. Inspired by 'tiny drivers' by merlinspecter, which was really cute. Deaged!max. Don't like, don't read.
When Daniel found out his teammate, max, had retired from the race, he let out a sigh. Max had been keeping fairly consistent to a 3rd spot in silverstone, a promising sign to the team to gaining those points that himself could not match from being back in 5th. Letting his thoughts leave Verstappen, Ricciardo let his thoughts focus more on the race at hand.
The finish had been close, but Sebastian Vettel had finally reclaimed his top spot, with Hamilton coming second, much to his chagrin. Dan had managed to keep to fifth, earning some respectable points that would be appreciated.
Finally, getting freedom from his car, he stood up and headed into the garage. He wanted to get a shower and hopefully catch some zees; he wanted to make sure his teammate was okay after that spin out. Spotting Christian, he decided to walk over to find if he had seen max anywhere.
"Hey, Christian", dan said, famous smile presented on his face, showing none of his disheartened from his place in the race, even if it were to be expected from how the engine is.
"Hello, Daniel. Good race today. The engines aren't quite suited for straights as the other cars out there are but we will have better luck in future races", Christian said, smiling and raising his hand to Dan's shoulder in a supportive way, as if he could read his mind.
"Thanks mate. What happened with max?", Dan asked. He appreciated the talk but he really wanted to know what went wrong with max and if he was okay.
Christian's smile tightened into a grimace and gave a squeeze to Dan's shoulder before dropping his arm to his side.
"We really don't know, Dan. One minute he was driving along, to what could only end in fourth place at the rate and then it changed. Spun out into gravel and all hopes of continuing over. We've got a theory it could be to do with the brakes but it will need further investigation to confirm".
Daniel stood, nodding along to Christian's explaination, glad to have part of his questions answered.
"Is max good, though? No injuries?", Dan inquired, biting his lip when he finished and searching the principal's face for an answer as quickly as possible.
"Max was fine. He felt a little achy, but that can be expected from the crash and I'm surely grateful that's the only thing that seems wrong. He answered some interview questions about the race just after me", Christian responded, watching as Ricciardo's posture straightened out again as worry fled his body.
Dan nodded after a while. "Alright mate, I'll go shower and see you later", Christian nodded in return, "alright mate, see you and Verstappen later".
Daniel turned and left the garage and headed towards his motor home. He saw a few racers on the way and smiled and waved but no one was interested in talking after such a strenuous race and that didn't bother him one bit. He ambled around the many homes until he found his and climbed the steps up and unlocked his door, opened it, stepped in and shut and locked it again. He turned his back to the door and leant against it, sighing in relief at being in his home away from home. He took a cursory look around the room and pushed off from the door and headed to his bathroom, looking forward to his shower.
Once his shower was complete and he dried off and gotten changed into some fresh clothes, he left the room and aimed for his phone on a worktop in his kitchen, spinning around 270 degrees and leaning down against his work surface in a relaxed manner. Unlocking his phone, he went to his contacts and scrolled till he found Max's number. He pressed dial and wasn't surprised when it rang for a few moments and then reached voicemail. Max was probably in the shower still. Waiting for the woman to stop talking for his message to be left, he felt a feeling of nerves drop over him, like fog settling heavy over a sea on what was a bright sunny day. Gulping, he left his message.
"Alright Max? It's me mate. We have to go see Christian for some reason or other this evening but I wanted to know if we could hang out together before that and do something. Call me back when you get this message. See ya".
The feeling, however, the one that made him feel that something was really wrong, made him decide that he couldn't wait for a message from his teammate, who he saw as a little brother.
"Damn it", he huffed to himself. He grabbed his motor home keys and left to the door. He hoped Verstrappen hadn't done something irrationally stupid- a prayer that once thought of, made him move even quicker at the possibility.

20 Questions for Writers
The menace known as @halfagone tagged me in this one!
How many works do you have on AO3?
As of this minute 134. This will likely change later. I've been writing since 2018 so I don't think that's too bad a number.
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
AO3 says 242,623. Which I am pretty happy with. That is over double what I had before this year. Which is insane to me.
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Mainly DPxDC, Leverage, and The Librarians. But I have fics on AO3 for Star Wars, Quantum Leap, Star Trek, Die Hard, Elementary, Stargate, Warehouse 13, and MCU as well. Not posted yet I also have Haven, Mercy Thompson, and Eureka.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
Falling for you, again and again (adventures in getting kidnapped and meeting your soulmate) - DPxDC the insanity that started it all. Dick/Danny soulmate AU that has many more ships and somehow even more kidnappings.
Five Times Dick and Danny Met Their Soulmate and One Time They Realized What They Were at the Same Time - What it says on the tin
Summons of the Champion - The JL try to summon the ghost king. They get Jack Fenton instead. Oh Who Wrote That, what did you make me write
I’m Falling for you (Now we’re both Falling) - My Patrol Partners fic with @little-dreams-of-life! Another Dick/Danny soulmate fic. This time time with Pining
Uncle Danny - After the death of his many time removed niece Danny helps Alfred raise her son Bruce. The final in that time I said hey there's an event called Family Week? how about I make it MCD
5. Do you respond to comments?
Yes pretty much every single one of them.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
You ask me, a MCD author, this? How could I possibly? But I'm gonna go with Sunshine because man was killing a deaged Jazz brutal. Especially with how.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
This is somehow harder than the last one. But I am going to go with And the Ghost in the Thermos. Just because I love that everyone got home at the end.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
I haven't before. Just some odd comments.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
No, but I seem to be creeping ever closer to that direction. We'll see if I make it there or not.
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
So so so many. More than half my works are I think. Craziest might be Leverage x Librarians x Star Trek x Star Wars or Star Trek x Star Wars x Stargate
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No, but I have had a number of podfics made by people.
13. Have you ever co-written before?
Yes! With my amazing co-author I mentioned before, Milma! One of the single best writing experiences I've ever had.
14. What you're all time favorite ship?
Yeah, I'm gonna have to say multishipper me does not have a favorite. But I might get yelled at if I don't say Dick/Danny.
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
Does it have a ? on AO3? Then that. Only one I expect to ever finish is Falling Two with Milma.
16. What are your writing strengths?
Uh, short things and making people mad at me for MCD. And I guess off the walls crack fics. Oh and the fucking rarepairs. So many rarepairs.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Finishing multichapter fics.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I won't do it because I don't trust myself to get it right.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
The Librarians! It's on AO3 even. Though you can dig if you want to read it. I'm not doing it.
20. Favorite fic you've written?
Uh Five Times Dick and Danny Met Their Soulmate and One Time They Realized What They Were at the Same Time I guess. I have a fondness for it. It's either that or Falling One or Falling Two.
#tag games#things i blame halfa for#don't worry all the things i say are in jest#halfa knows i secretly love these

The Gal Who Runs The Show
The Gal Who Runs The Show
https://ift.tt/IKy7QRF
by chocobith
What makes Christmas special? Clint never had anything special as a kld. This year, he just might get his wish, at least if Mrs Claus has her way.
#36.
Clint gets deaged during battle in either Nov/Dec (depending on how long you want to keep him a kid for) As expected due to what we know of Clint's childhood his child self is very different to adult Clint which knocks everyone for 6. He's still young enough to believe in Santa but thinks he's never had any presents as he believes he is a naughty child and so on the naughty list. They all live at Stark Tower and Phil and The Avengers decide to give him (and in turn themselves) the best Christmas ever. Clint's very wary of everyone to begin with, apart from Coulson who he instantly absolutely adores.
Again, my fic for Flint Winter Festival 2022. I tweaked it, like I always seem to do, but I hope you like it.
There is a quick desription of child abuse, mainly the scar from the injury and how it happened. It can be skipped. Don't read the first paragraph after the first break mark.

Man I wish it was possible to search tumblr blogs cause I just remembered that a couple years back I made a rant post linking "permanently deaged" fics to suicide idealization and I want to to look that over while I'm not having a small breakdown. Seems like it be interesting.
#Know I just read all the endings of deaged fics#Miss me with that they were so traumatized and unhappy that it's better that we dont fix them plot#Accidentally read two fics back to back that went like that#I'm here for that they are too young to effectively mask their trauma shiz#I will show u how u should have been treated and hope u internalize it before ur old again n ur walls r back up kinda stuff#I like physically and mentally and child but w all there memories stuff#If they start out with their memories but they start fading that is a red flag that the author is gonna slowly kill this character#Instead of heal them#But idk I also dont read amnesia fics unless they have temporary amnesia tag so I guess I'm sensitive about that sorta thing#It's about the forced vulnerability offset by a sense of safety#It's about ur loved ones seeing u w ur walls down for the first time and immediately going Is anyone gonna protect that#And not waiting for an answer#Deaged fic#Maybe with a clear tag this wont vanish into the void

Anyway, they go on a night hunt, and WWX gets a curse that leaves a physical mark. The curse ends up being transferred to Sizhui. Throughout the story, LWJ fears WWX is gonna up and leave any day, while WWX fears he overstayed his welcome. Especially after the curse moves to Sizhui, WWX feels worse and actually considers leaving. On the night hunt, however, they met a rogue cultivator that follows them back to CR out of "concern", saying he wanted to help when in reality, he was the cause of the curse and was aiming for WWX out of revenge. Thank you in advance!

16. Hi, Mods! Thank you for all your hard work. I hope you all are well! I'd like to ask for help in looking for a fic where WWX and LWJ went to some town or village near the sea to investigate missing people that were lured to the sea by a sea demon.
As they were asking around, WWX flirted with a girl as usual. But It turns out that girl was the sea demon and she took LWJ. WWX was so terrified because once the morning came, none of the victims were ever found alive.
Main while, LWJ who was captured under the sea had to buy some time for his husband to come to rescue him, so he told the sea demon the most intrigued story: his love life. Which she was hooked. And he left it at a cliffhanger when she asked for more. The sea demon who unknowingly became a fan of Wangxian had no choice but delayed her meal. So LWJ managed to buy a few more nights by reciting the whole novel of MDZS.

18. Hello! I don’t really know how this works but I am looking for a fic so I was wondering if you guys could help?
It’s a wangxian centered post canon fic where they have adopted some children and in the beginning of the story most of their children have grown up already and sizhui has a family. I remember the story including wangxian going on a nighthunt and they both die unfortunately. But i think they got transported back into the past? I’m not quite sure but they’re definitely still alive somewhere just not in their present time. There was a really sad chapter where their children hold the funeral for both of them and Sizhui breaks down in front of his adopted brother.
Idk if it makes sense but I hope you can help me find it! It was such a good read and I really want to read it again. Thank you so much and have a lovely day!

Hey all. This is a piece for @pastelpaperplanes. I love their OC Crusade and I really wanted to write something for them. This fic is based off THIS idea, where Prowl is a Seeker. Just a heads up, I’ve deaged him in this AU. He would have been created around the time Arachna-7 happened, so he never met Yoketron and also never joined the space bridge crew. For those who don’t want to read the post I linked too, there’s a quick rundown of how Prowl got to where he is in this fic at the very end to avoid spoilers, but if you want to go in without surprises I suggest skipping down to read the rundown then coming back up to read the fic.
And now that the necessary background is out of the way, on to the story!
———————————————————————————————————
(Everyone knew the story of the Space Bridge Repair Crew that defeated Megatron and his top lieutenants. Of Bulkhead, the gentle, bumbling giant whose space bridge knowledge proved critical in corning the Decepticons. Of Ratchet, whose age and experience helped the tiny team form the strategy that won them the battle. Of Bumblebee, whose quick thinking and even quicker pedes kept Blitzwing and Starscream busy while the rest of his team dealt with Lugnut Supreme. Of Sari, the tiny techno-organic whose mastery of the All-Spark allowed her to use it to keep her comrades going strong even as the Decepticons flagged and tired. Of Optimus Prime, the young Academy washout who single-handedly defeated Megaton not just once, but twice. Yes, every Cybertronian knew the story.
But they didn’t know everything.
They didn’t know about the bond that the young Prime had forged with the Warlord. They didn’t know that the reason he and his soldiers had been able to escape on the trip back to Cybertron was because Optimus had hesitated when General Strika attacked the Steelhaven to free her Lord. They didn’t know about the nights the two shared on the tiny little organic mudball they’d called home for a time.
And no Autobot, not even the Prime, knew that Megatron had been carrying the day he’d made his bold escape.
The team returned to Cybertron as heroes, and Optimus was immediately taken under Ultra Magnus’s wing to be be sucessor. His team were given the highest honor, inducted into the ranks of the Elite Guard to serve directly under Optimus himself.
Meanwhile, Megatron had his heir, and tried not to think of the Sire his Sparkling would never get to know. Time moved on, Earth was forgotten, and the Deceptions grew quiet. Megatron’s sparkling, who he named Crusade, grew. Things…settled.)
(And on the other side of the galaxy, another heir, the lost sparkling of Winglord Starscream, looked to the stars and tried not to think of the way his clipped wings ached.)
——————————
Oh, Crusade was going to die when Carrier got his hands on them. Of that, they were sure. It would be a gruesome death, too. Very painful. Worse yet, he’d give them that look. The “I’m disappointed in you but also very sad to have to punish you in this way” look. Crusade hated that look. Not as much as they hated Starscream’s look, though. Whenever they messed up, the Seeker gave them a look like he was asking “really?”, only they hated it because there was always something deeply pained in that look. Crusade had asked carrier once, why Starscream always seemed so pained when they acted in a certain way. Megatron had been very quiet, and then had said that Crusade merely reminded the Winglord of a precious treasure he’d lost vorns ago. Yeah. They had no idea what that was supposed to mean.
But! Crusade was getting distracted. Very distracted. They were supposed to be fleeing for their life, not musing on Carrier’s disappointment and Starscream’s mystery. Though, in their defense, they would much rather be doing that than trying to outrun the giant, weird organic beast chasing them. It was a rather horrifying thing. Six legs, dry, rough skin, and two heads. A rather intimidating underbite and wicked horns matched the four eyes per head and the acidic spit completed the terrifying image. Oh yeah. If that thing caught them, Crusade would be very, very dead. Which, if they were being honest with themselves, might be preferable to facing Carrier when they inevitably got back to New Kaon.
That was a worry for Future Crusade though. Present Crusade needed to keep themselves concerned with not dying, please and thank you. They gunned their engine, putting on one more burst of speed as they drove across the ground of the strange, outer rim planet. And then, disaster struck. Because of course it would. Crusade was convinced Primus wanted them dead, at this point.
The ground gave way beneath them, and they only had time to transform before they fell into a freezing underground river and were swept away. Before they could even think to swim for freedom, their helm hit a rock, and everything went black.
——————————
There was a soft crackling sound filling the air as Crusade woke, and they could feel their frame resting on something soft. They sighed, relaxing back into the comfortable bedding. Oh, that nasty little adventure had been a dream. They were back in their berth on New Kaon. Granted, that didn’t explain the crackling noise, but they were content to go back to sleep. They turned and curled up to do just that, processor slowing to slip back into recharge.
“I know you’re awake.”
The unexpected voice made their optics snap open, their battle protocols going online all at once as they leapt up and turned their attention to its origin.
There was a bot there, sitting in front of a crackling fire. They were small and lithe, their plating a dull, scratched black and gold. They had what Crusade quickly recognized as doorwings high on their back. But, the young Heir also quickly noticed two key things missing. The first: the bot didn’t have wheels. Which, while odd, combined with the lack of wings or rotors suggested they were a momoformer. The second: they weren’t wearing a faction badge. This was a Neutral.
“Oh, stop with the useless posturing.” The bot spoke again.
“What?” Crusade said, very intelligently.
The bot snorted, gesturing to a spot on the other side of the fire. Crusade noticed a container filled with…was that energon?
“Fuel.” The bot said shortly.
Crusade relaxed, battle protocols coming down slowly, and walked over to the container, steps cautious. They sat down, picking up the container and taking a small sip before staring at the bot. Said bot seemed annoyed with the staring.
“Oh, will you just drink and leave?”
“What your name?” Crusade asked, ignoring the question.
“What.” The bot said, toneless.
“Nice to meet you, What!” Crusade said with a smirk. Yes, they were being a brat. But the bot was being rude, thank you very much.
The young ‘Con deliberately ignored that they were probably intruding on this bot’s home.
“My name is not what. It’s Prowl.” the bot hissed. “Now fuel and leave!"
“So Prowl, where are we?” Once again, Crusade ignored the demand.
“Underground. A cavern system.” Prowl deadpanned.
“Cool. Also, I don’t know how to get to the surface.”
“Not my problem.”
“Then I guess I’ll just stay here!” Crusade said brightly, taking another drink of fuel.
Prowl was silent for a moment, then hissed and glared. “Fine. I will take you to the surface tomorrow. It’s night now.” They said shortly.
“How can you tell?”
“The cave crystals glow a different color at night.” Prowl said, gesturing.
And indeed, the walls of the cave were pocketed with faintly glowing crystals, their light a soft, deep purple. Hm. Crusade would prefer to leave now, but they’d take what they could get. No need to antagonize their host too much.
“So, how’d I get here?”
“I found you drowning in the river. I pulled you out. Your carcass would have attracted unwanted attention from predators down here.”
Okay, now that was just rude.
Crusade sniffed, turning their nose up and taking another sip of fuel. “Great. Thanks, I guess.”
“You’re welcome.” Prowl deadpanned.
There was silence as Prowl did…something. Crusade couldn’t tell what. In the silence, they finished their fuel and set the container aside.
“Thanks for the fuel.” They said cheerfully. “So. You a mech, a femme, or what?” They felt that was very important to know.
Generally a bot’s physical frame could tell you, but there were exceptions. Like General Strika. She did not look like the typical femme. And Oil Slick didn’t look like the typical mech. He was very willowy. Plus, Crusade themself was proof enough that physical appearance wasn’t a good indicator of that sort of thing.
“What.” Again, that toneless deadpan. Prowl really wanted Crusade to shut up, didn’t they? Well, too bad for them. They weren’t going to.
“Are you a mech, a femme, or something else? I’m kinda not anything. You can call me “they” or “them.” I don’t like the standard binary much.” They said cheerfully, optics looking around the odd little cave.
It was small. There was that makeshift berth in the corner, piled with…was that animals furs? Huh. There was some fuel in another corner, obviously handmade weapons and packs by a wall that made to what they assumed was the entrance, and..that was it. Well, aside from the fire pit in the middle. Huh. Pretty bare.
“Hello, They. I am a mech.” Prowl’s dry tone stole Crusade’s attention again.
They snapped their attention to the bot, gaping in infuriated disbelief. “You-“ His smirk made them stop and scowl. “You’re an aft.” They announced. “My name is Crusade.”
Prowl snorted, returning to…whatever was in his lap. “So I see. I suggest you rest. The trek to the surface is a long one.”
Crusade paused, blinking. “Isn’t it your berth?”
“I’ll recharge on the ground.”
“Uh, no. We can share.” They decided. They refused to steal a bot’s berth. They weren’t rude, unlike some mechanisms.
Prowl paused, then slipped whatever he’d been working on into his subspace and scowled. “There’s no need.”
“Sure there is. You aren’t taking the ground. The berth is big enough. We’re both pretty small.” They eyed the mech. “Especially you.”
Prowl made a growling noise that Crusade recognized as coming from his engine. Which…that was odd. He shouldn’t have an engine, if he was a monoformer. And it hadn’t sounded like a ground vehicle engine either. But those were definitely doorwings on his back. Huh.
“If I agree will you shut up and recharge?” Prowl demanded.
Ha. Victory.
“Sure.” Crusade agreed. They stood, making their way to the berth and hearing soft pede steps behind them.
Good. Prowl was following. The mech strode past him, sliding into the side closest to the wall and turning his back to Crusade. Rude. It was almost like no one had ever bothered to reach the mech manners. They glanced at the fire, realizing it’d probably die down on its own and there was no way for it to spread here. Assured of their safety for the night, Crusade got into the berth on the unoccupied side and lay down, relaxing their frame and closing their optics.
As strange as it felt to sleep next to a stranger, Prowl was right. Crusade would need all the energy they could get for tomorrow. They had to make it to the surface to Carrier could find them.
Resolve steeled, it didn’t take long for the young Heir to slip into a peaceful recharge, processor soothed by the warmth of the cave and the crackling of the fire.
——————————
Crusade woke when they fell face first to the floor from the berth. They blinked against the dirt, trying to understand how they’d gotten here. Also, why it felt like they’d been kicked. Movement from above them quickly brought back the memories of the day before, and they groaned. They had been kicked. By Prowl. The fragger. They pushed themselves up, glaring at the stoic mech.
“You’re an aft.”
Prowl scoffed, standing from the berth and heading to the corner where some random things were stored. He rifled around, then pulled out what looked alike a handmade sack made of more organic skin and dumped…wait, was that crystallized energon? The frag?
He went to the other corner, where Crusade saw a few small stacked cubes of energon. He tossed one over, then picked up another and downed it in a few swallowed before shoving a few more into his pack before heading to the entrance. Crusade was quick to drink their own share then follow.
“Let’s go.” the mech said shortly. “I don’t want you in my home any longer than you have to be.” He hurried ahead, through a winding tunnel, and Crusade followed.
“Rude.” They snarked. “Did your carrier never teach you manners?”
The mech went rigid, his engine making an odd hissing noise. Huh. Crusade had heard Starscream make that noise before.
“No.” The mech growled. “I’ve been on my own.” He didn’t say anything else, but Crusade wasn’t stupid. They could fill in the blanks.
“Oh.” They said, subdued. “I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine.” His answer was short and curt. Crusade didn’t push further.
They came out of the tunnel them, into the bottom of a deep ravine. Crusade winced, lifting an arm as their optics adjusted to the light of the sun then lowering it once the brightness wasn’t quite so painful. Prowl was already striding ahead, and Crusade rushed to catch up.
As they came up behind him, they noticed something off about his doorwings. The ends were…oddly damaged at the ends. Like they’d been cut or hacked into. It was strange. And it looked painful. Doorwings may not be as finely attuned as Seeker wigs, but he knew they were still extremely sensitive. Doorwinged mecha had most of their sensors in their wings, after all.
“Hey, are your wings okay?” They asked, concerned.
Again, Prowl tensed. “They’re fine.” he snapped harshly.
Well, that was a lie if Crusade had ever heard one. Still, they didn’t force the issue. Instead, they lifted their servos in surrender. “Hey, alright. Dropping it.” They said.
Prowl nodded stiffly, continuing on. They followed him in silence, not wanting to push the boundaries any further. After some time, they came to a narrower part of the ravine and a ledge a short ways up. Prowl didn’t even hesitate. He ran at the ravine wall, leaping up and latching onto it, then using it to leap to the opposite wall and land on the ledge. Crusade gaped, then shook themselves and hurried to follow suit. They refused to be upstaged by a civilian!
They squawked when they fell short, chest hitting the ledge and claws scrabbling on he dirt. Before they could fall, a slim servo dove and snatched his wrist, hauling him up. In the sun, Crusade noticed how the fingers curled around his arm were tipped in claws.
Odd.
Civilian frames didn’t have claws…and for that matter, most civilian frames couldn’t leapt across a ravine like Prowl had. Was it a mod in his pedes, perhaps?
Crusade glanced down, and that was when they noticed the strange damage to the his pedes, concentrated around his heels.
The frag?
Prowl obviously noticed their attentions, because he tensed and released their wrists then stepped away.
“Let’s go. We’ve still got a long trek.” He snapped, then spun and stalked off before Crusade could get a word in.
Now that was just rude.
The Decepticon followed regardless, walking after the mech as he led them along a narrow path built into the wall of the ravine. Prowl was obviously comfortable here. It spoke of long exposure and experience.
“So how long have you been on this rock?” They asked curiously.
Prowl glanced over his shoulder at them. “What?” He asked, sounding only mildly irritated this time. Progress!
“How long have you been on this planet?” They clarified.
He hummed, returning his focus to the path ahead. “Vorns. I snuck aboard a shuttle headed off Cybertron when I was young and ended up here when they dumped their scrap. I hadn’t realized I’d been hiding in the disposal pod until it had been released.”
“Oh.” Crusade was subdued. “Sorry”
He shrugged. “It’s fine. I prefer this place.”
“You do?”
“Yes. I did not like Cybertron.”
"Why?"
Their question was met with those doorwinngs hiking up as Prowl tensed, his field filling with anger before it blossomed to pain and one of his servos flew back to his doorwings.
Crusade was on him in the next moment, concerned. “Primus, Prowl, are you okay?”
“They…hurt, sometimes.” He gritted out.
“Cause of the damage.” They guessed.
“…yes”
“I’m sorry.”
The pain was fading from his field, and he straightened and relaxed his doorwings. “It’s not your fault.” He said, then kept walking.
Crusade hesitated, but followed again after a moment, staying silent. They came to the end of the path, and it dipped back into a new tunnel. The pair went though in silence, and Crusade was admiring the glow of the crystals when Prowl spoke again.
“And how did you get here?”
“Huh?” Crusade looked over at him, and it took a moment to register the question. Then they blinked and chuckled, rubbing the back of their helm sheepishly. “Oh. That.”
“Yes. That.” He said dryly.
“Would you believe me if I said that I’m here on a mission?”
Prowl sent him a look that suggested he very much would not.
Eh.
It had been worth a shot.
“Right. Well, I just want to preface this by saying it’s not my fault.”
“Of course it’s not.” Was that sarcasm? That was definitely sarcasm. Primus, how rude.
“Oh shut up. It wasn’t! It was Wildrider’s fault.” The other youngling had been the one who’d accidentally destroyed the space bridge control panel.
“Oh?”
“Yeah! I mean, we shouldn’t have been roughhousing in the space bridge control room, but it was still his fault!”
“And you have absolutely none of the blame, despite doing something you admit you shouldn’t have been doing.” Prowl said in a drawl.
Crusade threw their servos up. “Okay, fine! So we were playing a prank on Motormaster cause he’s a slagheap and when we were running from him we ducked into the control room and started arguing and then started fighting.” They huffed. “It’s not all my fault.” they said petulantly.
They looked up to see Prowl cast them an amused glance. “So you say.” He said serenely.
Ugh. Aft.
They scowled and turned their nose away, staying silent until they came out of the tunnel and onto another ledge. There was a second ledge across the ravine. Prowl took a running start, then jumped and landed on it neatly. Crusade followed suit, managing to stick the landing this time.
Once again, the mech turned and the way along a small, narrow path. Crusade stuck close behind him, and enjoyed the sun shining down on them. And that was when they noticed it.
A scruff bar, between his shoulders at the base of his neck.
A scruff bar, a feature that only sparklings and younglings had. A feature which allowed creators to pick up and carry their young painlessly and easily if said young got rowdy or disobedient or just needed to be carried somewhere else. Adults didn’t have scruff bars. Theirs merged with the rest of their frame when they became adults. Yet, Prowl had one.
Prowl was a youngling.
“Hey!” Crusade sputtered. “You never said you were a youngling!”
The mech scowled over his shoulder. “I’m not!”
“You have a scruff bar.” They said smugly.
Prowl was silent, but his scowl grew. “So do you.”
“Sure.” Crusade agreed cheerily. “I’m not denying I’m a youngling, though.”
Prowl tilted his face up to the sky like he was asking Primus for mercy. Ha. The idiot. Didn’t he know Primus had forsaken Crusade?
“Fine. I’m a youngling. Are you happy?”
“Very.” Crusade said cheerfully.
Prowl made a noise of disgust and continued on. Crusade was delighted to see that the two of them were finally coming to the top of the ravine. The end of the path came up to the surface, and soon enough both bots were there.
“So, this is it.” Prowl stated, then spun as if to leave.
“Wait! You can’t leave yet! I haven’t been rescued!”
“Not my problem.”
“I’ll just lead the predators back to your cave.”
The mech froze, then turned to face him. “You,” he said slowly. “Are incredibly annoying.”
Crusade beamed. “Thanks! I try.” They said smugly. “So how what?”
“This way.” Prowl said, stalking off.
They followed him, and soon they came to a stone overhang, there the mech sat down and set up the items from his pack which turned out to be a small fire kit and some fuel. Crusade sat opposite him, smirking. The two sat in silence until Crusade got bored, and then they were up and padding off the explore the area around the outcropping.
They hadn’t gone far before they heard an scuttling noise, and then some sort of furry, scraggly, three legged organic thing as large as their torso was leaping at their face.
And then Prowl was there. He surged from the shadows, and Crusade didn’t even register he was there until the organic was dead and Prowl was standing over it. He crouched, pressing a servo to its fur.
“I’m sorry you lost your life so we could live.” he murmured.
Crusade…was confused. Very impressed, because the odd little mech had skills, but also confused.
“What are you doing?” they asked.
As they watched, Prowl lifted the organic and turned to face them. “This planet is theirs. The organic life here has protected and sustained me for vorns. It’s only right to respect it, even if I cannot understand it.” he said smoothly. “You go back. This one attacked because you stepped into its territory. I'm putting the corpse far enough away where it won’t attract predators to us.”
They nodded. “How long will we have to stay up here?”
“Until your own come for you. To that end, I suggest you activate your long-range comms, if you have them.” And then he was turning and walking away.
Crusade watched him go, then returned to the outcropping and sat. Prowl was right. They needed to try and make contact with home.
They just hoped it wouldn’t take Carrier longer than an orn or two to arrive.
——————————
Crusade onlined the next morning to the roaring of a familiar space shuttle. They were up on their pedes in the next beat, temporarily forgetting Prowl, who had returned after dark fell the previous night, as the young mech roused and stood. The shuttle landed, and Crusade shut off the distress signal they’d been broadcasting just as the door in the side of the ship opened.
Carrier stepped out, and they launched themselves at him with a delighted laugh. Megatron caught his sparkling easily, tugging them against his chest and rumbling.
“You had me worried, little one.” He scolded.
Crusade had the decency to look sheepish. “Sorry, Carrier.” They perked up. “But I wasn’t alone. They turned to Prowl, and Megatron followed their gaze. “I found a friend! Prowl helped me!”
“Prowl.” Megatron said the name strangely, an odd quality in his voice and optics as he gazed at the stiff mech a few paces away.
“Yes.” Prowl said, then shot Crusade a look. “You never said your Carrier is Megatron.”
“Is that a problem?” The warlord interrupted, voice low and dangerous.
Prowl scoffed. “Hardly.” he sneered. He packed his things, then jerked his helm at Crusade. “There. I helped you. Not I’m returning home.” He turned to leave, and Crusade wanted to call him back but Carrier’s grip on their shoulder stopped them.
They turned to question him, but then the ground by the ship exploded up and the beast who had chased them upon their arrival to this planet was lunging from the debris. Megatron reacted, but Crusade could already tell he wouldn’t be able to stop the second head from sinking teeth into their arm.
And then, just like the night before, Prowl was there.
The slim mech slid in front of the pair of Decepticons, then lunged at the on coming beast. As he did, Crusade caught a glimpse of his face, his lips pulled back, and saw fangs.
Then he was impacting the creature, and he was a flurry of movement. It shrieked and bucked and twisted, but he held on and dug in and as Crusade watched he tore open both its throats and held on until it went limp and still. Then he stepped off it, uncaring of the organic blood staining his claws and…and his mouth. Okay, wow. Apparently he’d straight up bitten the creature’s throat out.
He shot an irritated look at Crusade and their Carrier. “You should go. These beasts don’t eat organic matter. They eat minerals and metal. You two are just going to attract more of them.”
Megatron ignored him, and Crusade was confused by the serious look in his optics. “You said your name is Prowl, yes? Where did you come from, youngling?”
“I’m not a youngling!” he snapped.
Megatron was unimpressed. He stepped forward, and in one movement a large servo was plucking Prowl up by his scruff bar. “No? This says differently. I’ll ask again. Where did you come from?”
Prowl growled, swiping his claws at the warlord, to no effect. “Put me down!”
“Answer the question.”
“I don’t know! The only memories I have are of Cybertron but they’re fragmented!”
Megatron hummed, optics narrowed, then lifted his other servo and pinched a delicate cluster of wires in Prowl’s neck. The youngling jerked, and then went limp with unconsciousness. The large warframe turned and headed back to the shuttle. “Come, Crusade. This won’t keep him out for long. It’s time for us to return home.”
Crusade gaped, then hurried after them. “Carrier? I don’t understand. What’s going on?”
“Later, little one. You go wash up. I’m locking your friend in the spare berthroom so you’ll have to share a room with me on the way back.” He said.
“But-“
“Go.” Megatron said firmly. “I promise, no harm will come to him. But we need to get back to New Kaon.”
Crusade hesitated, then as Megatron went to set Prowl in the berthroom, they turned and headed to the washracks. Maybe Carrier would explain it all when they were closer to home. They’d ask him later.
——————————
“Later”, as it turned out, did not come for another orn. In that time, Crusade had washed up, refueled, and recharged. Carrier had told him fuel had also been slipped into the spare berthroom for Prowl. But now, they were clean and refreshed and wanted answers. They went to where Carrier was piloting the ship, then sat in the copilots seat and stared.
“Carrier.”
Megatron’s optics turned to them, then he sighed and switched the ship to autopilot before turning to face his creation. “Yes. I believe I promised you a talk, my little one.”
Crusade nodded. “Why…why did you take Prowl?”
Megatron hummed. “He does not belong on that rock. He is too young to be on his own.”
“He’s managed this long.” They pointed out. “It’s more than that, isn’t it? Do you…do you know something about him?”
A soft chuckle left the warlord. “Hm, I often forget how perceptive you are. Yes. Or rather, perhaps.”
“Perhaps?”
“I am unsure if I know who he is. I believe I do. I have a strong suspicion, but I cannot confirm it until we are back in New Kaon. All of us.”
“And you won’t tell me until you know for sure.”
Megatron dipped his helm. “Yes. I apologize, Crusade. But I don’t want to give you a false impression of your friend. He may not be who I suspect he is.”
Crusade sagged against the seat, crossing their arms. “I don’t like it.”
“I know.”
“Can’t you tell me anything? Anything at all.”
“Crusade…” Megatron groaned.
“Please, Carrier? It’s not like he’s an Autobot in disguise.” They joked. "I mean, you'd know if he was. You're old as dirt so it's a trick you would've seen before."
Megatron shot them a look, reaching out to tweak one of their finials in reprimand, making them squeal. "Manners, bitlet." he scolded, then sighed and leaned back “You’re not going to let this go, are you?”
“Absolutely not.” They said brightly.
It wasn’t like it was that bad right? Maybe Megatron had known Prowl as a sparkling? No, that was silly. Maybe there was a bot on New Kaon who looked like him and they were secretly family? Unlikely.
Crusade opened their mouth to make another joke, when their Carrier’s next words made their voice die on their glossa.
“He fights like a grounded Seeker.”
——————————
When the shuttle landed in the hangar of the stronghold Crusade called home, they were the first out. The building, a massive one that housed the whole of Decepticon High Command, stood in the middle of the ‘Cons’ city on New Kaon. They stepped out, surprised to see Starscream.
“What are you doing here?” They asked.
He scoffed. “Megatron still hasn’t taught you manners, I see.” he crossed his arms. “If you must know, your oaf of a Carrier messaged me when you breached the atmosphere. He said he was bringing something back he needed me to see.”
“Uh huh. You don’t usually obey him so easily. What are you planning?”
The Seeker rolled his optics. “Nothing. I’m merely curious about what is so urgent I have to come see it.” he sniffed.
Crusade didn’t get it. The only thing they’d brought back was…
Before they could finish that thought, pedesteps and the sounds of a struggle drew their attention. Megatron stepped from the shuttle, trying to wrangle a wildly struggling Prowl. He obviously noticed Starscream, because he grunted and finally managed to pin the smaller bot’s arms to his sides and hold him securely.
“Starscream.” He drawled, sounding slightly strained. “So glad you could make it.”
Oddly, Crusade realized, Prowl had gone stiff and still, staring at the Winglord with a strange look on his face.
“Quite.” The Seeker sneered. “Is this what you wanted me to see, Lord Megatron? A half feral grounder youngling?”
“Hm.” The warlord narrowed his optics. “Look closer, Starscream. Perhaps remove that visor?”
Starscream snorted, but seemed willing to indulge because he stepped forward to do just that. Crusade expected Prowl to fight, but to their surprise he remained still and frozen, his doorwings quivering faintly. A clawed servo was lifted, and Crusade found the air stolen from his vents when he saw the optics that were revealed under that blue visor.
Red.
Prowl had red optics.
Starscream went still, his own optics blowing wide. Crusade couldn’t help but notice that Prowl had the exact same shade of red optics as the Winglord.
“Crusade tells me his name is Prowl.” Megatron said, voice oddly soft.
Starscream shot him a look, mouth dropping slightly before he returned his attention to the youngling. Megatron set Prowl down, and he made no attempt to run, simply standing and tilting his face up to stare as the Seeker lifted a claw and delicately traced his cheek.
Crusade had no idea what was going on. They looked to their Carrier to ask, but Megatron put a finger to his lips and they kept quiet.
“Prowl.” Starscream said, an odd accent to his voice. That…that was a Vosnian accent. Starscream never let his accent show anymore. Crusade had only ever heard it once, and that had been an accident.
“Prowler?” The Winglord said. A soft, sharp sound came from the frozen youngling. Starscream visibly swallowed, and then, voice shaking, spoke again. “Nightprowler?” His voice was little more than a whisper, but every bot present heard him.
Prowl jerked as if struck, a sharp noise leaving his vocalizer that Crusade didn’t recognize was Starscream clearly did. His doorwings shook, trembling madly. Starscream lifted his gaze to them, his free servo rising as he crooned, sounding almost physically pained.
“Oh, little one.” He said. “What did they do to you?”
This was getting to be too much. Crusade had no idea what was going on, and was about to ask their Carrier in a whisper, when Prowl spoke and every thought in their processor came to a screeching halt.
“Carrier?”
——————————
Prowl crouched on the roof of the stronghold, optics narrowed behind his new red visor. He stared out over the Decepticon city, his new paint job making him blend in to the shadows cast by the rising sun. He was still black and gold, but his black was darker and deeper, and his gold had become a deeper tone with hints of bronze to darken it. In the low light, he was hardly visible, only the glow of his visor drawing attention to his presence.
He shifted on his pedes, looking down to see his newly repaired thrusters. He almost couldn’t believe it. At his back, his wings ticked up. They too, had been repaired. They stood tall and proud, each one long and slim. He was built for speed and agility, his whole frame returned to the state it should be.
“Excited to fly again, flitterling?” His Carrier’s voice came from behind him.
He turned, helm tilting. “Yes.” He said.
Starscream hummed and approached, one servo lifting to stroke down his closest wing. “Good. As you should be.”
Prowl looked up, then stood and looked up at the older Seeker. Starscream tittered a laugh, his servo moving to stroke his youngling’s back.
“You’re so small, flitterling.” He said softly, voice a little said. He knew why his creation was undersized. Hook had said he was severely malnourished. Then he smiled. “Don’t you worry. We’ll get you to your proper size yet.”
“And if you can’t?”
He shrugged. “Then the Seekers’ Heir shall be small.” He said simply. “You’ll have to prove yourself worthy of your position, but you’d have had to do that regardless.”
Prowl nodded, then looked up and frowned. He didn’t remember much, from before. The Decepticon medic had said it was mnemosurgery. Apparently he’d found the scars. But…but he did remember that Starscream wasn’t supposed to be alone. He remembered he’d called the two other mechs “Sire”.
“Carrier?”
“Hm?”
“Where are Sires?”
Starscream tensed, then sighed. “Captured by the Autobots.”
“We’ll get them back.” Prowl said decidedly.
Starscream looked down, smiling. “Yes. We will. Skywarp and Thundercracker will be thrilled to know you’ve returned to us.” He crooned, dipping his helm. Prowl stood on his toes to meet him, and they pressed their forhelms together.
Then the Winglord stood back. “You wait here, flitterling. I will gather the rest of the Seekers.”
“Why?”
“It Is only right that they come watch their returned princeling’s first flight.” He smirked. “You are to lead them one day, after all.”
Prowl nodded, and Starscream turned. As he walked past his creation, he dropped one wing to flutter against Prowl’s before he took to the air and disappeared off the edge of the roof.
The youngling returned his attention to the city sprawled before him, frame relaxing under the light of the rising sun. Home. He’d finally come home. This was the place from his few, fragmented memories. This was what his spark had been crying for for so long. He closed his optics under his visor, wings relaxing as he hummed softly.
“Not getting scared there, are you Prowl?” Crusade’s voice made him jump, and he spun to glare.
Crusade grinned, sauntering forward to tap the Deceptibrand on his chest. “This suits you.” They said.
Prowl scoffed. “Yes. I know.”
“So, not up to flying?”
“Carrier is going to get the other Seekers. Apparently, my first flight is to be watched.”
“Ooh, can I watch? I bet you’re going to fly into a building.” They smirked.
Prowl stared. “This coming from a bot who got knocked out by a rock.”
Crusade sputtered. “The river was moving fast!”
“Yes. So fast. It’s not like you fell into a shallow point and could have just stood up.”
“Oh, shut up!”
“Why should I?”
“Because—because—“ they sputtered. “You haven’t flown in vorns, I bet you’ll plow into the ground!”
Prowl stared at the other youngling, face impassive. Then he reached out and, expression remaining unchanged, shoved Crusade of the roof. The Decepticon heir shrieked, then fell.
Their yell abruptly cut off in time with the sound of thrusters meeting his audials. A moment later, Starscream flew up, holding Crusade by their scruff bar.
“Flitterling,” The Winglord drawled, tone half-way between scolding and amused. “Can you, perhaps, not offline the one good thing Megatron has created?”
“Yeah, Prowl. Don’t try to kill your future leader.” Crusade sniggered.
Prowl stared, then looked up at his carrier. “Are you certain we can’t find the nearest cliff and drop them off it? No one would ever know.”
“I’m sure.” Starscream set Crusade down and looked up. Prowl followed his gaze in time to see a myriad of other Seekers start taking to the skies from various parts of the city and stronghold, circling high above.
He looked to Starscream, gaze fixed on the Winglord. “So, Nightprowler.” The older Seeker purred. “Are you ready to command the winds once more?”
Prowl simply nodded at his Carrier, then tensed and leapt off the roof of the tower. He plummeted, the wind shrieking past him as he got ever closer to the ground. Above him, Starscream hovered in the sky and watched. On the roof he’d left, Crusade watched with rapt attention. The ground drew closer, and mere seconds before he struck it he activated his thrusters.
He shot straight back up into the sky, and for the first time in vorns, Prowl flew.
———————————————————————————————————
RUNDOWN:
Prowl was created by Starscream and his trine, because I like the idea of trines being romantically involved and all that good stuff. (I headcanon that Seeker trines can create sparklings that are a little bit of all of them. One carries the sparkling, one provides the physical contribution, and one provides the spark energy. So he has one carrier and two sires, basically). Prowl got separated from Starscream when he was a sparkling and captured by the Autobots. (The ‘Cons think he was killed). They cut down his wings and intended to experiment on him/raise him as an Autobot but he escaped and basically survived on his own from there, until he stowed away on as ship headed off Cybertron and ended up on a planet no one goes to in the far reaches of the galaxy. Age wise, this AU of my AU could make him older than Crusade but not an adult just yet. (Also, he doesn’t remember much of what happened before his wings were clipped-also cause of Autobot High Command. He mostly just had fragments of memory.)
Also, in this AU Starscream didn’t betray Megatron in the beginning of the series like he did in canon. Mainly cause after losing Prowl, he hates the Autobots more than he hates Megatron.
Also also. I didn't mention this, but I like to imagine that the CNA for the Jettwins came from Prowl in this AU, not Starscream. make of that way you will.
———————————————————————————————————
They're friends. :)
But that was that! What did y'all think? I hoped you liked it. I had fun writing Crusade. Pastel, I dearly hope I did them justice. They're lovely and bring me such genuine joy. (Also, sorry for the funky formatting this time, it was the only way I could think to squeeze everything in.)
But, yeah! Prowl is home! Also, he and Sadie are gonna take over Megatron and Starscream one day. Just with less attempted murder on Prowl's part. Mostly. I like to imagine they'll just forever be the snarky best friends. Also, Prowl is going to be an absolute terror on the battlefield, make so mistake.
And yes, I gave Prowl a "Seeker" name because (most) Seekers in canon have compound names relating to the sky or flight so I thought it'd fit. His friends/family still call him Prowl, or Prowler, but everyone else calls him Nightprowler because it's only fitting to call the Seeker princeling by his proper designation. But yeah. I think that's it.
Until next time, folks!
Also, yes. This fic, like my others for Pastel, does have a song. I thought it fit, so. Anyway, its Coming Home - Part II, by Skylar Grey.
youtube
And, as a special treat, have one more song. This one is Heirloom by Sleeping At Last, and I like to Imagine it's Starscream's song to Prowl throughout this whole AU/this fic.
