I have to say I am making this for me dksjksjdkjsdhjkhsjdskjdhkjsdks because I needed to compile some of my favourite fics in one place so it's easier for me to read them for 72983th time rather than fighting for my life scrolling down the blog...
BUT if you see this and decide to read them pretty please make sure to show them some love BECAUSE ALL OF THEM DESERVE IT! Some are 18+ so minors don't even think about it. Focus on school, kids. Non-minors, like I said please make sure to reblog/comment if you like anything you read it helps more than you know.❤️
Recs under the cut :
You deserve each other by @bimrwolf - Could not stop thinking about this AU for a few days. Literally PLAGUED my brain. (18+)
Fix it by @lovebugism - IT'S ABOUT THE KIND OF ANGST THAT KILLS YOU AND YOU LET IT🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
Don't call me baby by @katyswrites - this is actively ruining my life as we speak. Modern Steve and you add sugar daddy au to that KILL ME. (18+)
Nine facts, one lie by @stevebabey - the amount of times I have read this should be a record…but god I am IN LOVE with this!
Love as sweet as honey (and lover I’m hungry) by @stevebabey - when I tell you the praise kink in me was THRIVING! (18+)
She drives me crazy by @upsidedownwithsteve - I don’t think I can ever say in words how much I LOVE this AU so plz take this keysmash jskskskskskskskdkzjdjzhchxhxjchxhcnmdnxnxjsjdidieidisjcjsndmsnfndndkfj (18+)
Do you think I have forgotten (about you) by @keeryshouse - the exes to lovers buildup is fucking CRAZY! The slow falling in love again makes me dizzy (18+)
Not like this by @makeadealwithme - Friends to lovers but make it more complex and realistic and angsty jsksjsjzjsjcjdjfj I LOVEEEEEE
Of monsters and mistletoes by @ficsilike-reblogged - I am SUCH a sucker for 5+1 things but with Steve and Christmas and goddamn mistletoes I just 😭😭😭
Call it what you want & So it goes by @maelialuv - INSANITY! Absolutely fucking insane. (18+)
‘Tis the damn season by @katyswrites - The range of emotions this series put me through lmao because I DISTINCTLY remember going from horny to straight up bawling this is SO GOOD 🤌🏻 (18+)
I'll put us together back at heart by @sanguineterrain - Just...wow. The ex-friends angst was so DELICIOUS oml! LOVE LOVE LOVE
Lol I know I have already added my definitely not needed and incredibly incoherent keysmash thoughts in the reblogs but I couldn't just mention the fics and not talk a little about how they ruined my life! Thank YOU for keeping this fandom alive and blessing me with these fics <333333

20 Questions For Fic Writers
Tagged by @elder-flower <3 Thank you for tagging me! You're awesome and I really enjoyed reading all your answers. I hope that it helped remind you that you ARE a writer (and a good one at that) despite the creative slump at the moment.
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
205 (204 are currently visible, one is waiting for an exchange to reveal)
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
685,919
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Currently Stranger Things and The Babysitter and hoping to get back into more Free Guy after taking an anonymous comment a little too personally to the effect of no longer being able to write that fandom without shame
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
a place where I feel at home (Stranger Things) (34,455 words) Day Four: Green With Envy (Stranger Things) (2,825 words) it's (not) just food (Stranger Things) (3,016 words) didn't mean to be too much (Stranger Things) (3,663 words) Mystery Spot Misunderstanding (Supernatural) (23,850 words)
5. Do you respond to comments?
I try to! For one, I really do appreciate anyone taking the time to let me know they enjoyed my fic, however they choose to express that (keysmashes, emojis, "I liked this", etc all make me smile). For another, I know a lot of people won't comment at all if they see that the comments don't get replies. Alas, I am human and often forget. Recently I've replied to some comments years after they were left. I should do another replies sprint soon...
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Probably this one: Trust (Free Guy (2021)) (7,755 words) It's a non-con/abusive relationship fic and the end has Keys sort of realizing just how fucked up everything is and realizing he can't even really remember his old friends' faces and yeah. Angsty!
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Hmm, I've got quite a few happy endings under my belt despite how difficult they are... Wow this was so hard I had to consult a friend. I have fewer happy endings than originally thought. Going with this one, though! a place where I feel at home (Stranger Things) (34,455 words)
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Not on them, no, which sort of surprises me considering what I've posted the last year or more. But also I'm blocked by like half of the fandom so I imagine I wouldn't see much of it myself anyway
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I do! One of my goals a few years ago was to get more comfortable writing it and I like to think I've managed that. I've even joined the smut4smut exchange multiple times now! As for what kind, um... Non-con is where I'm most comfortable, so quite a bit of that. But also surprisingly some totally consensual stuff, too. A lot more m/f these days, which is NOT easy when you are squicked by basically all the words for lady parts but I do my best to work around it. There's a sprinkling of m/m in there as well, though less so recently!
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
I do! Not often, although I think of them a lot. It's not really "crazy", but I think it's a little more out there than my other posted one. can hardly feel the cold with you (1,808 words) It's a Stranger Things/Until Dawn crossover featuring Steve/Mike/Jessica because I hardcore ship Steve/Jessica and Jessica and Mike are soulmates so I couldn't leave him out.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
I'm pretty sure my fics ended up on that one... Idk was it a Russian site? Some site was stealing a bunch of fics and I think I found some of mine there
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Not that I can remember!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I started on one with @urisarang but never quite got past the first part. I'd still like to continue that fic someday but it's hard?? And I like to think our Free Guy series of fics set in the same universe should count!
14. What’s your all time favourite ship?
It's really hard to say. All time? I don't think I have one. Maybe a Harry Potter ship or two since that's the only fandom I go back to on a regular basis for reading. To write? I guess it's Stoncy. Feels hard to say for sure because I'm really bummed out about the fandom and season 4 and it's made it harder for me to enjoy writing them. But I still love them.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
More than I could list here. I have so many, I even found one I forgot existed at all the other day. But for this one, I'll say probably the WIP set after Steve and Nancy were stuck in the Entity's Realm (where they are in Dead by Daylight the game). They're home and safe but Steve is isolating himself because he and Nancy were sleeping together while trapped and he "knows" it never meant anything except finding comfort in the familiar so he needs to stay away so Nancy can be with Jonathan and her family. It also features them both having trouble remembering to eat bc eating wasn't necessary while they were trapped in the other universe. I just reread what I've got last night and love it. But I don't think I'll ever figure out how to continue or finish it :(
16. What are your writing strengths?
Introspection. I am most comfortable writing what's going on in someone's head and like to think I'm good at it.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Dialogue, plot, action, anything that requires thought and/or effort.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I don't have an opinion, I guess? I don't write anything where it's come up before.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Supernatural!
20. Favourite fic you’ve written?
Hmm, there are a couple that I really like. Favorite right this minute... Caught between two:
anything (anything) for you (Stranger Things (TV 2016)) (5,373 words)
It's a very self-indulgent stoncy fic where Steve is desperate enough to stay with Nancy that when he proposes that she date them both and she thinks he wants to also date Jonathan, he doesn't correct her. I know I wrote it but man, I love the angst of Steve forcing himself into situations he is super uncomfortable with. Dub-conning himself in a way both Nancy and Jonathan would be very upset about if they knew but for totally different reasons than Steve's convinced himself over.
the devil on my shoulder (The Babysitter (Movies - McG)) (2,740 words)
Years ago, I was determined to write as many words as possible for NaNo. I asked ppl on tumblr to send me prompts to write for them so I would have ideas to work from. This fic came from me taking the chance at tagging my plea with The Babysitter and I'm so glad they sent me the prompt because this might be the fic of mine that I have reread the most maybe aside from the one mentioned above. It started out as a fic where Bee encourages Cole to break the rules to manipulate him into being on her side, but it turned into something a little different than that. I don't know how to put it into words but I just really love it. (Too bad there is not much of a fandom out there for those movies haha)

🤡🎢✨⛔💖💌❌👀🤲
🤡 (What's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that made you laugh?)
I'll share this WIP line that will probably never see the light of day. You kind of need to know to appreciate it, maybe, but it still kind of makes me laugh. **"Don't fucking touch me - filthy little - do you ever bathe?” 
"I try not to," Peep chirps, and then with a fresh grin they reach both hands out in Hazel's direction - making grabbing motions as if threatening to touch his face."** 🎢 (Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?) Had To Be You, hands down. Mostly because it would so wildly fluctuate from 'this part is so easy let me publish four chapters in a row' to 'I've taken two months to finish this chapter and I still hate it.' It was a good time over all but boy was it a ride to get through. ✨ (Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. 😉) I already did one do I have to do another...(jkjk) I think my long/run-on sentences are pretty well-crafted and tend to add exactly the sort of punch/affect I'm trying to manage. ⛔ (Do you have a fic you started, but scrapped?) Oh I have so many of these. I wouldn't even try to list them, but I'll highlight one of my personal favorites. I once had a fic planned that was essentially Addison being assigned Captain on this massive ship who's sole purpose was to transport "precious cargo." Spoiler alert, the cargo was an imprisoned Trep. It was very saucy, very much meant to highlight Trep's abilities as an Imp and was not necessarily destined for a good ending. It would have been fun, I think.
💖 (What made you start writing?) I couldn't tell you, honestly. I've been writing since I was a kid, since before I even remember doing it. We still have one of the first 'books' I ever wrote. What I can say is it's just...everything to me. It's a distraction. It's soothing. It's a way for me to connect with my partner and my friends. When I'm really sad, or really happy, or hell I'll say it even horny, writing is there, you know? I can do anything I want in there. I can write anything I want. I can bring these characters that mean everything to me to life in my own words. I can put them through hell, or get them comfort, or find them love. I can explore the world's brightest themes, and its darkest. I don't know. It's how I get all the things inside out. I don't really have any other creative pursuits that I feel like I'm good enough at to do that, so writing is the way. 💌 (How do you feel about comments and feedback?) I love comments. I love to know what I did right, what resonated, what people are thinking about what could happen next. I also love expressions of joy/enjoyment like keysmashes and such. I'm sensitive to criticism though, even well-meaning criticism, which is purely a me issue but can make getting feedback/comments kind of stressful sometimes. Especially when I'm nervous about a write to begin with.
❌ (What's a trope you will never write?) Never is a strong word because there have been times I've dabbled in things I thought I'd never dabble in. And I honestly can't think of any specific one right now that makes me thing 'ew no never.' I don't enjoy most things centering around pregnancy, though. Little cute moments with pregnant characters is one thing, but I don't like to focus on it much. 👀 (Tell me about an up and coming wip please!)
I have so many WIPs....a few fan favorites in the works are more chapters for the reincarnation AU for Hazing, Fable finally gets to meet Keet's pets, that one chapter for To The Left where these two finally get down, and a scattering of other hazing stuff. 🤲 (Would you please share a snippet of a wip?)
Okay...let me dig one up here. **Home, he thinks - spitting the word in his mind even as his feet turn in its direction. A tiny townhouse he doesn't know the first thing about fixing. A ratty bed, a shitty TV, a computer that barely connects most of the time. The self-inflicted bare minimum because it has never really been his home - only a place for his pets. A place to land when he wanted to rest because where the hell else was he supposed to go? 
It's not his home, he thinks - bitter, angry, aching. 
It's not his home, he thinks - paused outside, glaring up at the shingles and the brick. Humans pass around him - souls whispering at a distance, arching briefly in his direction until they're far enough away to snap free. Busy, loud, and something stings at his eyes. 
"Keet?" 
He starts, turns, and there's Fable. This silly little human who resists his pull but somehow keeps finding him anyway. Who'd held him at his worst, and called themself his friend, and who's here now, again. Standing near his apartment, watching him with a turned head and a curious stare. 
"Are you alright?" 
Keet opens his mouth to answer - closes it again - and then finally, after a second, he says instead,
"What are you doing here?"**

This other day I met with an online friend, who's from the US but talks only a little bit of Finnish. So we were talking in English, and it was pretty interesting. I haven't spent hours talking English too often, and I think the last time was 3 years ago.
I noticed so many things about my own English skills, one being that I really struggle with knowing which vowels or vowel sounds to use in words. So often I noticed making the wrong vowel, and I suspect that's because of vowel harmony being such an important thing in Finnish (my first language). So it's really hard to use front vowels (a, o and u) in the same word with back vowels (ä, ö and y), as in Finnish that happens only with some loan words but never with words that originate from Finnish. (Compound words are a different story, in those it works because it's several different words and the small pause between the words makes it possible to pronounce all the vowels normally.)
Then there was one word that I was constantly trying to slip into my sentences, and every single time my brain just forgot how it's pronounced: statue. I had to ask the others up to 5 times how is it pronounced again because I just couldn't remember, my mouth just automatically started it like the word "state" and I was unable to continue the word "statue" in my head nor mouth until I heard someone else say it, or somehow managed to dig it up from my memory.
I always feel like my English would be so poor. Especially when that happens where my tongue feels like it'd lose all the touch to the English language for a second. Like, I just can't find a single proper consonant nor vowel sound from my mouth, and everything sounds so horrible and becomes just this huge mess of weird sounds that make no sense.
But I try think that something similar happens to me with Finnish all the time too. If focusing on how I speak Finnish, I actually "stutter" a lot - it just doesn't look like what it does in movies, and I don't really notice it myself unless my tongue gets so "stiff" I have to pause and actually slow down and focus on what I'm trying to say in order to get it out. Otherwise it's mainly just me repeating syllables, because they came out wrong or the letters were in the wrong order, or because I thought I was using a wrong word and realized it was actually the correct one after all and use it again. Also my grammar is often really horrible, and I do notice it myself (others notice it too) but I simply just think too quickly and speak too slowly, so I'm basically thinking about two or more things at the same time and it SHOWS.
The latter is usually what has made my social anxiety even worse in the past, especially because the more nervous I am, the more weirdly I start to talk. One key for getting over that is to notice it yourself instead of just trying to hide and wish no one noticed. So nowadays, if and when I fuck up at something I say, I usually grab it and make it bigger than it actually is, make fun of it, and boom, suddenly it's not even nearly as bad! It's weird how something, that used to be my biggest fear, can actually reduce the anxiety. Another thing I sometimes do is the keysmash but with my mouth, if I can't get a word correct. Idk, maybe it somehow lets fresh air in into my brain, and it can also reduce anxiety if it sounds funny and makes others (and myself) laugh.
But yeah. Speaking English is hard. Like, literally SPEAKING it is hard because it feels like using different muscles with my mouth and tongue. Also there are so many things about those vowel and consonant sounds that we were never ever taught at school! Just this other day alone I learnt so many things that I did not even know exist, and I really need to start watching videos that describe and demonstrate how different consonant and vowel sounds in English are made because all we got at school was the phonetics, and they neither were properly explained, ever.

How would the twisted! boys react to their small human friend giving them a kiss on the cheek?
ohsdjfnek omg fluff moment
Twisted!Crowley: Happiest bird papa, he is loved by his baby ^w^ Be ready for lots of snuggles and affection, very little could sour his mood for the rest of the day after that
Twisted!Grim: Oh lord his ego. His (adopted) henchman likes him best! He is parading around with Yuu on his back all day being proud of himself.
Twisted!Riddle: At first he's surprised, then he goes full bloom mode. Yuu thought they made him mad, but he is desperately trying to keep his composure and not just devolve into verbal keysmash from being flustered. May very lightly scold Yuu for making him embarrassed, but it's definitely not a serious reprimand. Yuu could tell from how vibrant his petals were for a while that he was actually very happy.
Twisted!Ace: Ah, yes, a kiss between homies. Will tease Yuu a little bit before giving them a little kiss on the head like a kitten in return
Twisted!Deuce: He will cry. Yknow those edits where someone is crying and there's hearts with motion blur on them all over the screen? That's him rn. SHAMBLES. No chance at recovery. Kiss attack at Night Raven College, 1 dead.
Twisted!Trey: Just goes "aww <3" before also giving kisses, a little bit embarrassed by it, but is still a happy boi
Twisted!Cater: Will definitely ask Yuu to do it again for a selfie, but is very happy about it. Definitely becoming his screen saver #LoveIsStoredInTheYuu❤️❤️❤️
Twisted!Leona: Yuu has awakened him, and now he shall make them pay for it by being his plushie. It's just to hide the way he smiled, but he certainly couldn't hide his big rumbly purr.
Twisted!Ruggie: Shishishishi!! He'd definitely tease Yuu for being soft or just trying to bribe him for snacks, but that smile is genuine. Maybe try the other cheek if they're trying to ask him for something? >;3c
Twisted!Jack: Hurricane Jack's Tail is entering your vicinity, take shelter immediately. All he can do against the kisses is hide behind his hands and grumble about how it wasn't fair of Yuu to do that. Poor doggo, too much cute for him.
Twisted!Azul: One-way trip to the octopus pot for this poor boy, he is returning never. Yuu will be signing a non-disclosure agreement about this very soon. Also, please don't use this to get out of shifts, he wouldn't be able to say no.
Twisted!Jade: You feel no fear and I am deeply afraid of you. He is surprised at first, but his smile is much less dark and menacing afterwards. More teasing, but will also try to coax Yuu into giving him more kisses.
Twisted!Floyd: You fool. Yuu is getting kissed all over now, there is no escaping it. Floyd is now aware that kisses are on the table, and will often chase Yuu down to not only squeeze them, but completely smother them in kisses from here on out.
Twisted!Jamil: You get exactly one (1) shy noise out of him before he hides in his hood. Will definitely ask Yuu what it was for, but he isn't complaining. He's too shy to ask for more kisses, even though he really wants them. Give him a kiss when he does something well or as a thank you for a good hypno-sleep ^w^ he deserves it
Twisted!Kalim: Once again, you fool. The boy essentially becomes a flashbang and there's rainbows and sparkles everywhere good lord Yuu will go BLIND. He is literally so bright help
Twisted!Vil: Oop there's a dent in his face- but still he's quite happy. Yuu gets headpats from potato dad, maybe a boop as well? 😳
Twisted!Rook: Do you have no sense of self preservation sir/ma'am/m'theydy?? HELLO? You have seconds to start running, please commence immediately. But Yuu does receive kisses of their own once they're caught.
Twisted!Epel: how could you. There's flowers blooming everywhere on him and his leaves are super green and oh lord there's bees all over the place, this is far from a sturdy, manly look. What in tarnation, sugar pea. This is not darn tootin. Yeehaw.
Twisted!Idia: Samurai.EXE has stopped working. Complete verbal keysmash, head in hands, it's a complete critical hit. He will never ever live it down. You have broken the poor boy, and he will stay in his room until this error code is sorted out.
Twisted!Ortho: Definitely surprised, but oh my god he's so happy look at him. Just pure, absolute sunshine from this little machine. This memory is going into his most secure file, it's precious to him.
Twisted!Malleus: ahem, BE NOT AFRAI- Im not making that joke again lmao. He applauds your bravery, little one ^w^ Malleus was definitely stunned for a while. He's so happy to have Yuu around, and he wishes he could give his own kisses. He only has his one eye, sadly. No mouth.
Twisted!Lilia: Awww, little baby bat is such a sweetheart! Many nuzzles and some fawning is in order, and maybe a story as well? Ole peepaw bat hasn't felt this much love in his heart since Silver was little.
Twisted!Silver: A kiss of true baby has woken him up. He'll ask Yuu if they wanted anything from him, and if they say they just wanted to say hi he'll give them the softest older brother smile they've ever seen. Will definitely be open to snuggling.
Twisted!Sebek: AH! AFFECTION FROM THE TINY CREATURE! HOW UNBEFITTING OF A GUARD! In all seriousness, he looks downright scandalized, but he looks downright scandalized about everything. Croco boi is just loud and embarrassed.

That husband prank was 🤌
Could we also have a part two with Mirio, Tamaki, and others?
💍husband prank pt 2. (bnha) 💍
find pt one (bnha) here || find pt three (naruto) here
summary: referring to them as your husband even though you’re still only dating.
characters: mirio togata, tamaki amajiki, denki kaminari, tomura shigaraki
tags: pro hero!au,  fluff, domestic prank, marriage talk, very very mild possessive talk in shiggy's but I promise it was supposed to be fluffy
💖reblogs > likes💖
Tumblr media
Mirio: "HELL YEAH BABE, KICK HIS ASS, THATS MY HUSBAND, THATS MY HUSBAND RIGHT THERE!" Your screams were almost drowned out by the roaring crowd, everyone watching as Lemillion was taking down an especially dangerous criminal. The opponent was putting up a fight but you knew Mirio was stronger. Sure, the blond hero was struggling, but that one word from you pushed him to go further. Your husband? Well that had a nice ring to it. A punch to the face knocked him out of distractions. He quickly diffused the situation in front of him and rushed over to you. He's now going to refer to you as his spouse to everyone everywhere. Low-key he's going to forget to propose to you because in his mind he's already married to you now. 😌
Tamaki: *Hubby is so cute when he's sleeping🥺💜* The less than appealing picture above the caption was a fleeting thought in Tamaki's mind. He was far too focused on the words you wrote. Hubby? His brain did a mental keysmash. It was almost shameful how much he craved domesticity. And when he got it he could barely handle it. His imagination always wandered to what he'd be like as a husband, but now he's thinking about being your husband more often than not. It's even beginning to effect his hero work. "Do you think they'd mind if i made them breakfast every morning? Nnn... Or is that too clingy?" To which Fatgum and Kirishima quickly tell him no, breakfast in the morning is never a clingy thing, all the while they're happily taking care of the criminal as Tamaki stands there self conscious. He definitely starts thinking about proposing to you. Seriously that is. He day dreamed about proposing after your first date. It might still take a while for him to follow through, but he's slowly planning it out and slowly warming his nerves up to the idea.
Denki: Jokes on you he probably started calling you (wifey/hubby/spousey) before you did. You're the couple everyone assumes got married already but low key isn't sure because no one heard anything about a wedding. Still, when Denki hears you call him husband he feels so proud like, "You're god damn right i am!" absolutely gets you two matching spouse things like mugs and shirts.
Shigaraki: "My husband is more attentive than I could ever ask for. And our relationship is none of your business." Some old lady once again chastising you for dating a criminal. The comments you made about the lady's less than ideal husband amused Shigaraki. But by the expression of the lady, you were right. Referring to Shigaraki as your husband though, that caught him off guard. He supposed it made your relationship come off as more serious than just dating. But he couldn't ignore the way the comment made him feel. Unsure of your actual logic behind the comment, he knew that marriage would solidify your relationship more. And in that moment he knew that's what he wanted. If you agreed to marry him that meant you'd actually really want to be with him forever... And Shigaraki already knew he wanted to be with you forever... So perhaps it was about time to make it come true...
