omg mace is yqhbr ian ever gonna tag mickey to do a picrew and then comment about on his cuteness when he reluctantly does it???? because...I would like to see it.

nay.

I would pay to see it. where do I send my cash?!?

howl my beloved, oh my god. you’ve gotta be a mind reader because i was ruminating on this all day yesterday 👀 i’m genuinely unsure about whether or not yqhbr mickey would make one and post it publicly for people to see — his anxieties about his identity & privacy are still going strong! though i do think if ian in particular asked him to or tagged him to do it, he would. because of course he would ajskskdj — and then of course ian would freak the fuck out because dark hair, blue eyes, surly expression ticks every one of his boxes 😌

if you’d like to make this happen, you can mail cash or a money order to Space Mace Industries, 6969 Tag Game Lane, Las Vegas, NV 💌

(and because i Am what i Am, i’ve included some lil yqhbr mickey picrews below the cut 🥰)

#howl ilysm it’s insane #i’m imagining yqhbr mickey sitting in his room grumbling while he makes his lil avatar bc ian asked him to 🥺 #‘it’s for ian just suck it up’ ahskajdkskfk #i love these boys 😭 #macy babbles #howlinchickhowl #yqhbr

Drinking a Flat White in honor of finally starting @howlinchickhowl's Ristretto and loving every word of it

#fic rec #howlinchickhowl #ristretto #i don't always vibe with a coffee shop au but I'm fucking giving with this one

[gallawitchxx]

hi i have come to be feral here is my proposal:

Ian works at the cowboy bar where they have the mechanical bull I don't know if those have specific names, the saloon? idk man i'm english.

Mickey is there for Mandy's bachelorette party under EXTREME duress. He does not want to be at a bachelorette party but he's just come out and all of her friends have adopted him and want him to come and get white girl wasted with them and cut loose and have some fun because he deserves it and you know them White Girls love a token gay.

He gets very drunk and decides he should ride the mechanical bull.

Ian, the health and safety conscious member of staff that he is, tries to stop him but they get into it a bit and Mickey's like try and stop me tough guy. And Ian doesn't want to get into a fight with him but he also doesn't want to hurt himself so he gets himself up on that rope and hovers for a bit. but Mickey's a big damn flirt and he keeps taunting Ian and being all sexy and stuff but also he is pretty drunk so he's a bit floppy while he's doing it and eventually Ian just gets down there with him and then...you know the rest.

Thoughts?!11?!?!

HOOOWWWWLLLLLLL

i had no idea that my day would include a cowboy bar au, but i do NOT HATE IT ONE BIT!

alright, for those who are highly confused, please see this scorcher or a video that howl shared & i melted over!

there are not enough words in the english language (your native tongue, after all) to tell you how into this idea i am.

mickey would hate the whole fucking thing, especially because the White Girls would be insufferable with gay "save a horse, ride a cowboy" jokes. but yeah, then he DRINKS. heavily. which obviously backfires because then he's just horny as hell & that bull looks GOOD ENOUGH.

plus, like, cocky mickey wanting to show off his skillz? YES PLEASE.

my question is: does mickey see ian earlier in the night? & is the bull kiiiind of to get his attention? OR is he already on the bull & then ian's all up in his business & throwing off his groove & mickey's like, i'll show you!!!!????

i would like to read this in full whenever you're ready to write! if only just the bull part.... i think you could do it real poetic justice with the way that you'd write the rolling of hips & the way that they just run their hands down & around each other? & switch the hat back & forth?????? PLEASE.

howl, it's too powerful. we need it.

I DIDN'T UNFOLLOW YOU THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN ANYONE WHO SAYS IT DID IS JUST TRYING TO DRIVE A WEDGE BETWEEN US AND FRANKLY THEY SHOULD DIE.

ahem.

my dear ellie I am very torn because upon reading your wip list I find myself desperate to know a little something about saiv chapter 3, but also...hatchet job? You have the hatchet? or the boys are goin' a-murderin'? enquiring minds want to know...

I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING MY OPTOMETRIST CAN VOUCH FOR ME EVERYTHING'S FINE PUT DOWN THAT SHOVEL HOWL

anyways, as i was going to say.

hatchet job, yes! the fancy title of my film critic ian / horror movie director mickey fic that i stole from mark kermode's memoir. or, you know, the idiomatic expression for "a work of criticism which aims to destroy a reputation" (courtesy of wiktionary)

the plan was to do four to five parts that would each jump forward a couple of years ahead in time (enemies to lovers stylez but make it snappy), and since that's most likely what it will forever be, just a plan, i can tell you what was going to happen in part one, the ever-so-eloquently titled fuck you, ian gallagher

ian is on top of the world. he's 25, finally doing alright after several not-really-worthy-of-mention years, working for his brother's growing online magazine where he makes good on both his english diploma and the years of consuming way too many horror movies (and real-life events) in the gallagher household by writing about anything spooky, scary or gory when it comes to pop culture

that's how he finds himself at horrorama, the biggest genre film festival on the east coast, filing a review on that year's most talked-about flick called sleep tight, daddy, where a young woman takes revenge on her father's years of abuse by locking him up in the basement and putting him through various kinds of torture. it's sick and twisted and there are people stomping out of the cinema in indignation, but to ian, it's just plain boring

he publishes his review, writing that the film "sure made him sleep tight in his seat" and that the debuting filmmaker lacked style and seemed unsure in his direction--and because everyone likes a good hatchet job, it goes viral and ian becomes the talk of the festival

the sudden onslaught of ego-stroking feels intoxicating and it makes ian do what he promised himself to never do again--take a guy to his room after striking a casual conversation with him over a couple of drinks at the hotel bar and proceeding to fuck both of their brains out

the guy's easily the best lay ian's had in years, maybe ever. muscly but soft, and a little on the shorter side, but with thick thighs and a beautiful cock that ian doesn't really get to pay much attention to before his own dick starts doing the thinking for them both and plunges itself into the presented sweet ass way too early

it's too good and it ends all too quickly. ian's lying in the tangled-up sheets, taking heavy breaths and already thinking about their second round, when the guy heaves himself up and starts putting his clothes back on. ian is confused

"i dunno, man," the guy tells him as he zips up his jeans. "you kinda seemed unsure in your direction and lacked style. might wanna work on that."

he leaves ian with that--and a smirk around the cigarette he fishes out his back pocket

the next day, when sleep tight, daddy wins the festival prize for the best feature debut, it finally downs on ian who exactly he fucked last night. or maybe who fucked with him, more like

because mickey milkovich, the film's director, takes the stage, this muscly but soft guy with a metal band t-shirt on, arranges the microphone to his height and uses his dedicated speech time to say: "i only really have one thing i'd like to share and it's this: fuck you, ian gallagher." and the crowd roars with laughter and applause as he flips the camera

end of part one

Rita! You are just in time I am pulling into my station imminently. Here is your question, did you have a beloved stuffed animal as a child and where is it now?

(Also...well, you know my other question 😘)

yesss glad I made it!

yep it was an actual teddy bear that was wearing a sort of floral onesie that was stitched on? and I remember when I was about 5 I took him to my ballet recital because apparently we needed a stuffed toy for a ballet choreography? god this is bringing back so many memories.. it currently resides in my childhood bedroom on top of my wardrobe along with all my other stuffed animals from when I was a kid <3

thank youuuu

as for your other question, I'm waiting anxiously for you to come pick me up of course 😘

[y0itsbri]

You made it! And then I had to walk home so we're a little delayed, but we're here now, and we're doing question time! hooray! Now, let me pick your brain 🙃

Would you rather travel to the far reaches of outer space, or the deepest depths of the ocean? And why!

howl! i love YOUR brain! both options equally terrifying and fantastic??! both so dark and vast w creatures that could give me a heart attack. both so far from and so different than homeeee. but also both so mysterious and if i make it home, i could name my discoveries after me and things i love. both would be so taxing on my body bc of the pressure differences. hmmmm ya the answer is both but also neither bc i am scaredy cat LOL

Hi Macy I love you Macy!

I wanna know...do you wear a wedding ring? If yes, what is it like? If no, do you wear some other symbolic item?

howl my beloved 🥹💛 it’s always so lovely having you in my inbox 🥰 happy mini question friday! ✨

believe it or not, i don’t wear a wedding ring! i’ve been married for 5 years (and some change) and i’ve never had a ring! i don’t trust myself with expensive jewelry because i’m incredibly forgetful so diamonds are a no-no. if i ever wore one it would be a plain band or something super simple! my wife has hinted at getting me something for christmas so perhaps my answer will be different in 2023 👀

#howl you’re a treasure ✨ #macy babbles #howlinchickhowl

[purplemagpie]

Beloved! Happy question friday 💛 I've got some lovely little questions for you, here they are:

I always associate you with the colour yellow, because of the heart and the stars and your sunny personality 🙃 What colour do you think of yourself as most aligned with?

Have you ever been to a fan convention/fan event? Would you ever?

Do you have curly or straight hair? Do you wish you had the other type?

💫💛

howl! hi, hello, hope you have a nice weekend, my dear ✨

my sunny personality skdjfskljdkl pls 😂. well, my two favorite colors are purple and gray, so i think either could work? i asked my sister and she immediately said purple, so maybe we can trust her on this one and go with that (but also being associated with the color yellow feels so warm 🥺🌻☀️💛💫)

never been to a fandom event, nope! kinda hard to attend one over here tbh? not that many important artists are willing to come down to argentina, so it's usually not worth the $$$

i have wavy hair, actually! depending on the day, i'll wake up with completely straight hair or something closely resembling curls. i kinda like it that way? versatile. keeps things interesting lol

thank you for the questions, howl 🥰

Leigh! Thank you for your support! We just gotta move with the times, you know, and also make room for new projects 😉 So sporadic question fridays from now on, but here, today, for you, some questions!

How do you feel about authorial intent?

How many flannel shirts do you own?

Do you have a best friend outside of your husband and how long have you known that person?

🖤💫

howl you are so right, new projects fuel us ☺️😏

1. i think a reader’s interpretation of the text is really important! but the author’s intent is also a part of that interpretation too! i don’t always know my intent when i’m writing so i love to hear interpretations and sometimes i’m really surprised about it and i think that’s pretty cool, like i’m learning new things about who i am as a writer.

2. i don’t own any flannel at the moment! i don’t know why, cause i love flannel! but overall i’m pretty femme (not that it makes me immune from wearing flannel lol)

3. i have two best friends and one is passed 😭💔we were a trio so i can’t mention one without the other. my best friend- i love him to bits! he’s super fucking weird (affectionately) and i think people are surprised we’re besties when they meet him. we’ve known each other since college, so 15 years give or take? we don’t live in the same city but it doesn’t change our friendship at all. i have so much fun with him and he wants to join tumblr and i said he can’t add me because i don’t want him to read my porn 🥲 he was so sad 😞
