random q but do you have any fic recs?
Ooh, this is a good question! Well, I'm the first to admit I'm a snob when it comes to writing. Years as an English teacher made me rather prickly about what I like to read, and now that I'm older than most fic readers/writers, I like even less lol.
Y'all know I'm not into second person, but I'm obviously in the tiniest minority in kpop fic writing, so the author has to really sell me on their talent for me to buy into 2nd POV. That said, I have a few favorite writers on Tumblr (almost all of whom I've commissioned OC fics from lol), so if you haven't read their stuff, you should.
I also find a really great collection of talented, unique writers on Ao3, so without further ado...
Tumblr authors:
@taetaesbaebaepsae - Really, really talented author--one of the few who really gets me into a moment like I'm there. "Stone" in particular messed me up in the best way along with "Residue". Can't wait for the two fics I've commissioned to drop!
@smileysuh - "Tease" had me fanning my face, but I've enjoyed all her stories, including her many NCT fics. She also wrote a very long and lovely Jooheon fic for me called "Accidentally in Love."
@jinjikook - She's not really active anymore, which is a damn shame, but she's probably my favorite MX tumblr writer. You may have read her stuff before. It's very original, avoids many clichés, and has some incredibly spicy, authentic smut. She never published the Wonho fic I commissioned, but trust me, it was HOT. I hope she comes back some day. "I Dare You" (a fave I have read many times), "Lights, Camera, Action", "Affaires Douees", and the classic "Sugar Sweet" are all faves.
@onlylovekpop - Ugh, "Rhythm" and "Troublemaker" were FIRE. She writes on a different blog now for NCT, but these will always have a very, very special place in my heart.
In case you've read any and all of those, I will rec a few on Ao3 that I really enjoyed.
joopremacyy - "Inconspicuous Hungers" and "Slow Rider" are SOMETHING. Definitely worth a read. She's a great writer all around!
sweet_alien - "Shin Hoseok is a Mooching Asshole" is one fic I've read dozens of times. It's just really sexy and sweet and surprisingly deep.
dark_muse_iris - "Buff Buffet" isn't really a smut, but I loved the story so much. She's a REALLY talented writer who writes with originality and honesty. Her I.M fic is also spicy. Great stuff.
sadhungryghost - "Poolside" is a really wonderful chapter fic where you get to fall in love with the main character. She's also created a complicated character, which doesn't happen much for many writers. The character has some growing to do, and that's amazing.
No doubt I'm missing a bunch of fics (there was one I read with two foxes, and they can change into human forms--Wonho and Ki, I think [it's been a while], but I can't find it on Ao3). I read a LOT before creating both a tumblr and ao3 account, so I didn't keep bookmarks anywhere, but these authors and fics have all stuck around in my mind for various reasons.
Hey, if any of you guys have recs for me, please share! Especially if you ever come across something with an OC! They're so hard to find!!!

68 Funny Times People Did Exactly What Was Asked Of Them
We all fail to communicate things to each other on a daily basis. And you may think it comes down to cultural or personality differences, but it doesn't. Family members, couples, school friends, and colleagues fail to communicate their intentions as if they met yesterday.
So when you tell your sibling it’s OK to eat half of your grapes, don’t be surprised to find their other halves chilling in the fridge. Sometimes it’s intentional and results in "malicious compliance," other times it’s purely accidental.
Bored Panda has put up a compilation of the most absurd and hilarious incidents of people taking stuff too literally. Maybe those who gave these instructions will watch their words next time—better clear than sorry!
