#and yes this is my first fic and fandom

[tea-of-destiny]

@101flavoursofweird tagged me to do this, thanks!

Post the last three lines your wrote for your current WIP:

Well, it's four lines, but I didn't feel right cutting away the tag sentence lol.

Far too gracious for his own good, Desmond still mustered a bittersweet smile at Mackintosh’s response. “No, I don’t blame you, my good man. You couldn’t have known before. This setting and time of year only makes me more susceptible to my own feelings about it all, I suppose.”

I'll tag @paopubell @tharkflark1 @alphascorpiixx and anyone else who wants to share!

#teaposts #teafics #tag games #yes this is an unrequited mackindes fic. i'm very excited about it bc i just came up with a banger ending to match the working title #but to execute it well i have to get there first lmao #also it's always so funny to tag people who aren't in the fandom you wrote for #i just want to give the game a chance to spread outside my fandom locale but it's still like hey. here's some words you won't understand

How had ryukitann got together? 🤔

sorry this is a little rushed, but in general i think this is the gist of how they’d get together

#persona 5 #ryuji sakamoto #yusuke kitagawa #ann takamaki #ryuann #ryukita #annkita #ryuannkita #PS SORRY IF IT SEEMS LIKE I POSTED TWICE. TUMBLR REALLY WOULD NOT LET ME INTO MY QUEUE I PROMISE #I remember trying to write fic for them and gave up #there are no non-E rated fics for these guys and that is so depressing man #I hold this ship so very close to my heart fr #it’s the only one that’s really survived from my first playthrough of p5 #bc before I was into Shu///ake I was huge on Shu///yuu and polythieves in general #then I kinda settled into what I like now as I got more into the fandom #aNYWAY THO THANK U FOR THE ASK #my brainworms are progressing #I can see some people thinking ryuji is problematic here and. yes<3 #I didnt have time or space really to like. make a bigger fallout before everything is resolved #so obviously intruding upon dates is not healthy but let’s just ignore that for my boi ryuji #long post #ask

Okay, I have to ask: Did anyone else get an extra laugh out of last night's Pokémon references because, by total coincidence, you JUST started playing Pocket Mortys again yesterday? 🤣🤣🤣 Because I did!!!

I haven't played in about a month. But last night it got to be around 9:30 and I was just like, "Today was long and I don't have enough braincells to work on my fic right now. But if I keep sitting here cuddled up with a kitty, not really doing anything, I won't stay awake for the new episode."

So Pocket Mortys was the perfect solution: required less braincells than working on fic, would help me stay awake & had added bonus of staying cuddled with kitty. ❤️ So I opened the game & played 'til new episode time... and laughed hysterically when Rick revealed he was keeping Bigfoot in a Pokéball. Don't even get me started on the "Popéball" , because I am cackling again typing that. 😂

#rick and morty #rick and morty season 7 #mort: ragnarick #pocket mortys #pokemon references #why yes i did not particularly subtly mention the fact that im working on my first! fic in this fandom #also if you would like to see the aforementioned cuddly kitty i will happily post her in the comments #tumblr tags are fun #rick and morty season 7 episode 9

there r fics that make u insane (so amazingly good it’s removed ur sanity) and then there’s fics that make u insane (you need to fistfight the author for how they did a specific thing that caused u to rant for hours)

#i know i just posted that other thing but ffs that is NOT how u handle someone in that situation everyone involved made everything 10x worse #yet it’s being treated like the right thing to do (which again ofc they’re cops they don’t understand harm reduction but still) like #seriously everything’s so forceful like u seriously think forcing ur friend to talk to u or forcing a patient to talk to a therapist under #the threat of being admitted to a psychiatric hospital is gonna make her feel comfortable talking to u? or anyone? she’s just gonna trust u #less and get better at hiding it and speaking of which the taking away all sharp objects thing makes sense in theory but like think abt it #for a minute she confirmed she isn’t suicidal and this is her only way of coping so do not just forcibly take away all her coping mechanism #like yes she is hurting herself but it’s a COPING MECHANISM. she’s coping with something. help her with that don’t just take away her penci #sharpers or whatever (which btw since she’s an adult she could easily buy more stuff and yk learn to hide it better) which again has to be #voluntary it isn’t gonna work if u force someone to do smthn they don’t want to like as ur friend u could’ve made it clear u care abt her #and wouldn’t judge her for anything and r here if she wants to talk don’t just say “you have to talk to me” and casually threaten #hospitalisation when she isn’t ready in the moment like seriously if this wasn’t a badly written fanfic she would completely stop trusting #bcz given that this wasn’t even done out of panic i would like ffs u are NOT doing any of this right #oops sorry ranted abt the bad fic in my tags- #it’s not where the author’ll see it and know it’s about them i don’t feel bad abt it #this was my first time even looking at stuff for this fandom so #cw self harm in tags #idk if i need to tag anything else for that 😭 #fanfic #ao3 #ryan shut the fuck up

Title: and when i'm back in chicago i feel it (another version of me)

Fandom: NCIS: Hawai'i

Relationship: Lucy Tara/Kate Whistler

Rating: General

Word Count: 7,002

Chapters: 1/5

Summary: “This is insane!” Kate blurts, snapping her head around to look at Lucy so quickly her neck must hurt. Her brown eyes are wide and terrified, darting around Lucy’s face, her jaw clenching and unclenching on a loop.

Lucy elects to go for humour to diffuse Kate’s anxiety. “We’re seven hours into a nine hour flight. It’s a little late to get cold feet, don’t ya think?” she asks with a chuckle. She supposes she should probably have expected this. They are travelling over eleven hours to Illinois to meet Kate’s family, which is a much bigger deal than meeting Kate’s FBI team at a BBQ picnic they could make a quick escape back to their apartment if need be. Especially because it’s more than just meeting Kate’s parents, it’s meeting her entire extended family at the annual Whistler-Johnston family reunion.

“It’s not the introducing you to my family part that I’m worried about,” Kate says quickly. “They’ll all adore you, just like I do. It’s just,” she drops her gaze, “The last time I was in Wordsworth was over eight years ago. And that trip didn’t exactly inspire me to ever go back.”

Or: Families and grief are complicated, but Lucy’s love for Kate is quite simple.

#kacy #kate whistler #lucy tara #ncis hawaii #ncis hawai'i #kate x lucy #lucy x kate #kacy fanfic #kacy fanfiction #my writing #don't mind me just posting for the first time in 5 months with a new fic for a new fandom lol #just an exploration of grief at a family reunion nbd #the team doesn't make an appearance in this fic but they are there in spirit as this is also a bit of a love letter to found families #yes this is an exploration of kate's grief over noah’s death and how her parents reacted to it #but more importantly it is an excuse to write kate and lucy being Very Soft

10 First Lines:

Rules: Share the first lines of your ten most recent fics and then tag ten people. If you have written fewer than ten, don’t be shy—share anyway! tagged by @aroace-moron (thank you!)

1 . On The Other Side of Mahal's Halls: They walked a-ways before Gimli noticed that Legolas's fingers were trembling in his grip.

2 . And In The Darkness To Unmake Them: Upon the ringing of the bell, Frodo fell into step beside Bilbo and together the two Hobbits followed Gandalf out to the porch where Frodo had spoken with his friends the evening before.

3 . Dead Faces In The Water; Dead Faces Everywhere: It started, at least in Mirkwood, when the king came home.

4 . To Live In Undying Lands: Gulls wheeled overhead and for once their cries did not pierce through Legolas’s heart like the blades of cold knives.

5 . The Last Temptation of Narvi of Khazad-dûm: Narvi flings the whole mess—sketches, gemstones, glittering metal bands, sheafs of scrap-paper covered in tiny terrible runes—down on the workbench and glowers.

6 . Within A Lonely Mountain Dark With Cold And Shadow: So this was how it ended.

7 . Will the Waves Carry Me Away? Thirty-five years, and Gimli still disliked riding horseback.

8. No Living Dwarf: When the Fellowship passed through the Doors of Durin, they found themselves walking in a tomb.

9 . Dream In Colors Borrowed From The Sea: My name is Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill.

10 . Blows Uncounted: Legolas lost count.

feel your burning look pairing: sid/geno rating: M length: 6.2k tags: alpha/beta/omega dynamics, getting together, pining, alpha sid, omega geno, mating bites

Omega necks are extremely private, especially for unmated omegas, never to be shown in public and the NHL has long required all players to wear scruff guards on the ice. This causes lots of unexpected problems for Zhenya.

boys when they cant read some of the most popular and interesting looking fics of their ship because the author who wrote them supports incest shipping and that feels genuinely uncomfortable/unsafe

#its like PLEASE JUST TAKE IT BACKKK. im being fucking gatekept from cool fics #it’s like every other popular davekat artist too #like fuck guys i want to support your work so bad Why do we have to make it unsafe for traumatized individuals #you don’t even ship it you just want to pretend that kind of stuff doesn’t hurt people and invalidate a lot of peoples trauma like PLEASE. #it’s not my fault that shit makes me feel unsafe as hell please just say sike so i can read the cool davekat fics #negative #partial KK post #YES I’M VERY AWARE THIS IS FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS; BUT IS IT REALLY SUCH A BIG ASK FOR ME TO HOPE THAT MOST OF MY FANDOM DOESNT HATE VICTIMS

i think we as a fandom don't talk about dan and renee enough aftg hitlist anon. i understand that renison and mattdan (?) prevail but we need to look at the sheer potential in that one short story about dan's recruitment alone. the sports rivalry turned hatred. dan only getting recruited because wymack came to watch renee. the strip club. having to unite in the face of misogynists. do you see the vision. do u see the vision aftg hitlist anon.

#i'm sorry i know i always go against mainstream fanon #but are u seeing this #more unpopular fanon sorry: #bi renee. ive been a jeanee truther for 3 years i cant put it down. their canon interactions r really cute theyre just got the vibes sorry #at least some of the foxes have gotta be a little ugly im sorry guys they cant all be hot #i hate reading aus unless its like nearly exactly canon backstories but they meet differently #that ones just like a general thing all the time i'm not an au person #i LAY MY LIFE DOWN for people who write like ridiculously long pre canon or post canon fics #um #u might be able to guess what fandom i very recently got into based on that #if u r thinking “Is it that one?” the answer is probably yes. its a big one. #have never read or watched source material nor do i plan to who cares they're all dead anyway & authors a pos #also missing scene canon compliant fics. anyone whose ever written andrew pov baltimore.... i come to you humbly #and with love #aftg hitlist anon #i hope u know that my replies to these asks r genuinely the first thing i think of in response thats the philosophy im going with here #today i have dan and renee on the brain. it happens.

The Arrangement (3/ 4)

——————

Summary: Cruz and Aaliyah were always destined to meet by bumping into each other. This time, Aaliyah is the one that instigates their meeting because she needs a protector and a friend. Little did she know, she would find more than that in a young marine.

AKA

The Fake Marriage AU

——————

...Aaliyah pressed her nose against Cruz’s neck and breathes in the way their shared bodywash smells different on Cruz’s skin than it does on her own.

Although she misses the products she used on her hair, the spa days, and general pampering, there is something more comforting about this.

About the shared intimacy she’s built with the woman in her arms...

sometimes it’s sad that the default fanon for McCoy is grumpy, annoyed, no fun allowed, old, and done with the world

when this guy also enjoys the life so much and to the fullest - he loves food, drinks, he loves good times (he’d go bar hopping with you if you asked), he likes sex, he loves research, he’s curious, he likes jokes, he likes to tease and “prank” others

#mccoy doesn't consider himself old - the only time he used 'old country doctor' that the fandom likes to quote so much was when he was #literally 100 years old in deadly years (probably not 100 but you know what i mean) #i know i said this while watching twok but the gif reminded me again lol #also people will be like aos and tos mccoys are the same and then they'll proceed to write aos mccoy annoyed at jim's bar visits #when tos mccoy would be the first one to go with jim #i'm not criticizing i'm just musing lol #i know where the aos outgoing jim versus grumpy mccoy comes from #but it's not true for tos #in tos at some times it's more like no fun allowed jim versus i wanna have fun mccoy tbh #but i also understand why people tweak kirk in order to be 'better suited' to work with spock #but kirk isn't the energetic one vs spock's stoic one #i think that was nicely seen in snw actually #and a reason I guess why i saw people being like why is kirk so serious lol #since they probably didn't watch early tos in a long time #don't pay me any mind #tos nonsense #also yes i'm also leaning more toward serious-ish mccoy in my fics but i'm trying to change that
