✩ WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP ✩

All the fics I’ve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes. Please look at tags and warnings on ao3 before reading

DC

Do You Still Believe In Love I Wonder? by PrinceJakeFireCake

Tim Drake has always known he would die young. The how and why were vague, but it would be young. He’s prepared for that.

He’s a bit less prepared for how worried his family and friends are.

all these stars are silent by distracted_dragon

If there is one singular truth in the universe, it is this: Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne will never allow any harm to be inflicted on Conner Kent ever again.

Lord of the Rings

Endearment by smilebackwards

Legolas and Gimli refer to each other by elvish and dwarvish terms of endearment. They do not, however, translate these words for each other.

How to Train Your Dragon

Empirical by GalaxyThreads

Five times the riders realized they didn't know Hiccup as well as they thought, and the one time they knew him better than the rest of Berk. (Riders!Fam)(Gen, no smut) Whump! (One-shot)

Clone Wars

Foelu by MerlynBane

Foelu [fo.e.lu] v. Dai Bendu 1. To change.

As the only one of his kind in the Order and perhaps only the third in its history, almost all of what they know about Obi-Wan's people is limited what they've been able to observe as he's grown up. When his implant expires and wartime shortages make it impossible to get their hands on a replacement, Obi-Wan learns about something else his body can do--for better or worse.

SVSSS

flowers for my beloved by texturralize

Time travel, from the perspective of the man living in the past.

After seeing the other world's happy, good Shen Qingqiu, Bingge comes up with a plan: go back in time himself to when his Shen Qingqiu was younger and seduce him. And seducing him, it seems, is all too easy.

The Peak Lords of Cang Qiong are nonplussed, to say the least, when a mysterious man begins appearing around the sect, hounding Shen Qingqiu's steps. Flattering him, making him laugh, bringing out a side of him they've never seen before. And very blatantly trying to steal their Qing Jing Lord and make off with him.

i will NEVER not be pissed that most colleges cost about 40k A YEAR on average and that if YOUR PARENTS make over 120k AS A GROSS INCOME you're practically immediately disqualified for need-based aid???? like do you really believe anybody can afford to throw an entire third of their annual income to their kid's schooling, when they probably have several thousands of dollars in loan debt themselves??? in THIS economy??? eggs are fucking $7 a dozen where i am right now but GOD FUCKING FORBID i get any financial aid because "well your upper class" NEWS FLASH 120K IS THE NEW MIDDLE CLASS AND JUST BECAUSE MY PARENTS MAKE OKAY MONEY NOW DOESN'T MEAN FUCK ALL WHEN I CAN REMEMBER ALL THE NIGHTS THEY DIDN'T EAT WHEN I WAS GROWING UP BECAUSE THEY ONLY HAD ENOUGH FOOD TO FEED ME AND MY SISTERS I need to hold everyone involved at gunpoint because i really don't think a single fucking one of them understands "oh but you have money :/" there's literally a reason i work FULL FUCKING TIME while double majoring and it's because my parents can't even send me money for fucking groceries, let alone fork out FORTY FUCKING THOUSAND DOLLARS GOD DAMN YEAR for a degree that'll be FUCKING WORTHLESS in three years anyway i worked my ASS off and graduated with a 4.7 to get scholarships because i knew that's the only way i'd realistically be able to afford school. and then the fucking fafsa goes "oh but you have money in your savings! you can pay for your own school" bitch i have 4k and it's for my fucking rent!!!! my parents have like $600 in savings do YOU SEE THE ISSUE that's what being forced into credit card debt for 20 years fucking does it puts you in an unescapable hole so even when you're making good money YOU DON'T GET SHIT!!!!!! NOT TO MENTION THE ABYSMAL CREDIT SCORES MY PARENTS HAVE SO GOOD FUCKING LUCK TRYING TO GET LOANS FOR ME!!! COSIGNER? I'VE NEVER HEARD OF HER IM GOING TO KILL PEOPLE!!!!!!

#sponsored by me working on transfer applications and the fafsa telling me to go fuck myself ✨✨ #i need to strangle ever single fucking person in charge of uni pricing #give me ONE fucking reason your school costs 40k a year when you have thousands of undergrads #'non-profit' my FUCKING ASS lets do the math. #i currently go to a small school so 4500 undergrads (rounded down) #tuition ALONE is 43k. not to mention housing and food #but i'll be generous #so 4500 x 43000 = 193.500.000....which is ONE HUNDRED AND NINTY THREE AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS?????? #there's 315 full time faculty and 240 part time #i've talked to professors and the MOST tenured ones here make about 130k a year #so JUST FOR A MOMENT LETS ASSUME EACH FACULTY MAKES 130K.... (240+315)(130000) = 72.150.000 #OKAY SO 193M - 73M = 120 MILLION LEFT OVER AND I KNOW GOD DAMN WELL THAT NOT ALL OF THAT GETS PUT BACK INTO THE SCHOOL #THE DECREPIT FALLING APART DORMS AND CLASSROOMS??? THERE ARE FUCKING RATS IN THE ONE BUILDING LIKE HUH????? #NOT TO MENTION THAT YOU ONLY PROVIDE HOUSING FOR 2 YEARS AND ARE LOCATED IN THE SECOND MOST EXPENSIVE CITY FOR RENTERS IN THE US........... #'we're non-profit :)' MOTHERFUCKERS WHERE IS THAT 120 MILLION DOLLARS FUCKING GOING THEN. EAT MY DICK

Turo and Sada continue to wear their wedding rings despite their split in hopes to mend what they had one day. They try rationalize it to themselves that they continued wearing it out of habit.

#lakehouseshipping #I’m rotating these two in my brain like rotisserie #tbh I feel like they actually wouldn’t get married cause they are too busy #or their wedding is signing the papers before heading to work #OR it’s a ‘for later’ after arven is born plan #no matter why the reason one left (eebie deebied or genuinely walking out) the ring STAYS ON #and the cats go round and round #I’m a whole ass adult on a Pokémon trip since pla lmao #arven never questions it because it’s always been a thing ™ or just thinks it’s a fashion choice #claves says nothing when he sees

have just had the realisation that the akira tattoo is going on the same leg my star wars and tron tattoos are on and its also the same leg im planning on putting my hitchhiker's guide tattoo on at some point. why am i building a shrine to very specifically 70s and 80s sci fi on my leg. fuck i guess i have to put my eventual transformers tattoo on that leg

#axel grinds on #this is absolutely killing me for some reason #i think its esp funny bc the tattoos on both my arms are very like. unique aesthetique shit #my patchwork arm is mostly animals #one of my coworkers thinks my tats on that arm are hysterical bc ive got like #a dino skeleton a big ass crow and some creepy looking runes round my arm #and then on my bicep ive just got the CUTEST tattoo of a jackalope ever #shes like “its all so creepy and edgy and then theres the fuckin bunny” #the other arm im booked in for an abstract blackwork sleeve #so i look cool and edgy until i wear shorts #and then its BAM this guy is a GIGANTIC FUCKING GEEK #fantastic 10/10 no notes

Extra doodle because I hung a body shower sea horse on the bathroom (why did I do that) and it made me uncomfortable today while I showered. We kept staring at each other I had to get out of there I couldn't stand it...

Lou blocked HLD—we’re perplexed, And Platinum tix have us vexed: The real fans get bilked While Cash Cowrry gets milked; Kindness checks out when greed runs unchecked.

#larry #harry #harry styles #harry's house #love on tour 2022 #louis #louis tomlinson #hld #louis blocked the hld update account #there's confusion and speculation and that's where i'll leave it #the public sale for harry's 42 new love on tour dates happened today #i logged on hourly for each sale and never saw anything at face value #only platinum tickets at prices harry should be ashamed of #harry that's asshole money #people who can pay that much for a ticket to a 2-hour show are assholes #that's who you'll be playing to #i wish i could enjoy promo right now but i can't #harry and team are making the rounds trying to expand his audience and boost sales for the album and tour #meanwhile fans since 1d days can't get a reasonably priced ticket #and if olivia wilde were shoved any farther down my throat she'd pop out of my ass #so i either don't write #or i do write and i'm grumpy #hope this passes #i miss being unapologetically feral for them #limerick-hs #limerick-lt #may 26 #2022

#cats #not langblr #he is my most beloved little boy #he's growing!!! #soon to be round. eventually #scottish straight #orange #he fits the one orange braincell stereotype btw #the other day he jumped into a bath #for zero reason #he was rescued but he will not learn from this experience #i still love him #goofy lil orange ass

Someone make a Salmonid OC who's a hacker I think that'd be incredibly fitting (just got communication error 3 high egg games in a row) (Almost exclusively using H3 Nozzelnose, Bamboozler, Squiffer, and E liter these past few games)

#Splatoon 3 #Salmon Run #I'm having SO MANY DISCONNECTS #Not just me I had leavers three games in a row before I started to be the leaver #And then I quit because I didn't want to be the Ass that disconnects first/second round AGAIN #Plus if I DID make it through round 3 and hit gold but then DISCONNECTED so it didn't COUNT #I would have been piiiiiiiiiiiiissed #Paying $50 a year for Nintendo to Bless me with their Servers. #Salmonid who understand modern Squid Tech and hacks Grizzco to give the workers bad weapons #And sometimes shut down the servers and intercepts their egg deliveries causing the shift not to count in the system #This is my lore reason for why everything sucks so bad right now #I'm gonna break gold tonight if it fuckin kills me I REFUSE this Silver Orb I hate it #This wouldn't be such a big deal if I'd just stayed in Bronze I LIKED the Bronze egg #But no. now I need to get Gold.

birthday cake for me :)

#the lady at the Walmart bakery did the succulents and cactuses #then i added the mushrooms n shit afterwards #got them from the garden section of dollar tree #these are actually 2 separate cake but ive always wanted a 2 tier cake #so we got a sheet cake and a 6inch round cake and slapped em together #the reason i didn't just get one of their mini 2 tiers is cause i love marble cake and the round cakes don't come in marble #bless the Walmart lady for putting up with my socially awkward ass #also this is all whipped icing! #i hate buttercream but some places won't let you get the designs in whipped because its not as clean #i don't really care if its the cleanest and neatest design i need it to taste good but also #i would never know the difference it looks exactly like it did in the pictures #she was a very good cake decorator #the green gel icing she did not add i had to put it in a few spots to hide some mistakes when we put the second cake on top #and then i tried to make it look intentional 😆 #so those are not her messy lines

Every time I come across a 'Hindu mythology aesthetic moodboard' I go through the stages of grief.

#im talking about the ones w/ random pictures of some person in a suit and random sanskrit words and random close-ups of pendants #and you can just tell a heavily anglicised individual is to blame #like #bestie #please leave me and my gods and my RELIGION not mythology!!! out of your pinterest #and they all so heavily misunderstand the point of hinduism #it makes me sad #oh and #that accursed post that keeps making rounds on tumblr #the one where kali is basically artemis and lakshmi runs a casino and the whole thing is set in the usa for some fuckall reason #yeah dont do things like that because you clearly dont understand the gods or what they stand for #hinduism is not about looking at things ass they appear on the surface and going to town with it #sur and asur / dev and rakshas are all embodiments of much more complicated thoughts and emotions #every narrative has a message snd every story requires critical thought and introspection #i know i sound mean but can coloniser descendants people who think they can just play around with our gods because they think this active #religion is just mythology please stay away from them #pls #have some shraddha #but more importantly have some respect #hinduism

[congolese-kitty]

time to cry 💀💀💀

#mew #cat chat #straight up read that situation wrong #finally gave in and redownloaded like 4 dating apps #usually I’m popping on those but I’m having a slow start #realized I was still following my ex on my other IG bc we’re still matched on one of the apps and I clicked the link IG #saw the post with their new gf #god is not letting up on me for NO REASON omfggg #how many Ls can my gay ass take this weekend you gotta stoppppp #like she’s gonna be a dope friend but mannn I was so excited at the light that was lit in me being round her #I was excited to finally be in love again #sigh

I genuinely can never thank you enough for the past year. I can't express how much it's meant to me to be understood and have my energy reciprocated with someone on the same wavelength. Although I've been in the fandom for quite a bit longer than most people writing in, and longer than you, even, I can't remember the last time I felt this welcome and motivated. A TRULY embarrassing amount of my work's just been fueled by "oh Snap's gonna wanna see that," and of course that circle's expanded since then, but it probably wouldn't have had I not met stream chat through you, aaaaaand if I'm honest you're still up there... lol...

It's always, always a highlight of my day to see your your work, your posts, and your responses, whether they're to me or to others, and it's always a highlight of my week to be able to make it to streams! You're a huge inspiration for me, particularly in terms of your work ethic across the board. I always come out of streams energized and feeling like I can actually finish things, and usually this is hubris, but it's gotta count for something.

Not to be dramatic, but you kinda changed my life, no exaggeration. I still really can't see myself the way I was two or three years ago not just calling it quits after some of my Gaiden experiences... lol... but I'm still around, and like always, I wanna be able to write in and interact as much as I used to sometime soon. Thanks for everything! I hope RGGS continues to deliver so we can stay in touch :3

i cant thank YOOOOU enough for the past Xsome months or so. feelins ABSOLUTELY mutual in that i wasnt sure anyone else would really be into talkin bout rgg as you and i have (or would be willing to read my. miles-long scrolls of bullshit LMAO) so it's been real fun gettin to know you an everyone and chattin !!

most bafflin thin to ever to think i have good work ethic, i feel like ive been behind everyone for the past couple weeks and even with the things i do make it's really not up to snuff. it's always nice to hear that's not supposedly exactly the case :) I Suppose :^)

rgg community (like any community lbr) can be. An Experience, esp for someone with a position like yours. so im glad i can make it worth to hang around somewhat LOL

regardless, i always look forward to you next ask or the next time you leave tags on a post i make. if i ever bother making a post again ☠️☠️

#fave #snap chats #I DID SIT ON THIS ALL DAY OOPS #i got a bit busy with some stuff...... also i always try my best to write a sufficient response cause ill feel bad if i dont </3 #mad funny youre stoked for me to see stuff And I Am Always Stoked To See Stuff cause i got a similar sentiment towards you #i mean i TRYYYY not to get too in my head bout it since then i get paranoid but i always do hope on the downlow like #'ah man. hope this is funny. hope masu likes it. hope im shot for this one' VERY NORMAL things to want :) #so funny tho. funny timin of this ask i feel like ive been disappointin people an particularly yous #which 'snap that doesnt make sense please be happy with yourself for three seconds' which. NO?? no. impossible #but i do get worried im disappointing or being too annoying or yk. just being a pest or not being adequate #so it's fun/ny gettin this ask today all that considered LOL #I MEAN I KNOW EVERYONE BEEN NICE THE PAST DAY OR SO YK SO NO REASON TO THINK IT #i cant avoid thinkin a it... my number one bully is myself he Will Not leave me alone no matter how hard i try to complain to the board #the board also bein myself. i cant excommunicate myself from myself-- #REGARDLESS. very cool that i give you motivation :) esp after streams :) #every time i finish a stream i feel like i made an ass out of myself. ALWAYS HAVE FUN. but i feel at the cost of bein obnoxious #tho i guess theres no point stayin round if i was. lest its like Last Resort kinda deal then TRULY i am sorry im The Last Resort #ILL STOP WHINING FOR FIVE SECONDS TO SAY thank you :) for everythin :) both just chattin with me an all the work you do for the community #it truly is a lot and indescribable and its very cool i have someone like that who likes what i do. you do be the beyonce in walmart to me #to reference that post i rb'd last night LOL its still hard for me to understand but ig i dont have to understand it #i think i mentioned this before but i remember when id draw for persona (cringe ik) id mostly draw adachi (this is relevant Trust) #and this one mate one day was just 'snap its really nice how much. love you bring to the adachi community' #which is a hilarious thing to say since adachi sucks but POINT IS im glad i. i THINK im kinda doing the same thing now still #thats the consensus ive gotten the past couple asks.. lol.. its nice bringin people together and havin a fun and welcomin space :) #ILL WRAP IT UP HERE THO before i make people throw up. i kept this ask hoarded long nuff.. ill just hoard it in my chest cavity instead #once more thank you forever and always :) when we inevitability branch off to other things i'll always treasure all you've done for me
