#i bookmark every fic i read that i like

[baskeigh-ball]

AHHHH i’m literally foaming at the mouth screaming kicking my feet at your swap au because ahh!! AHHH!!! it’s just so so juicy and i love love love that it’s raph and mikey centric because they’re my faves too!! anyway thanks for making it!!! i screech when i see new posts about it haha

well you're in for a treat because 99% of the stuff i make is raph and mikey centric! i love those goobers so much, they deserve the world

there's stuff for leo and donnie too, especially in mutant manhunt! so they aren't completely sidelined, i just tend to have more ideas revolving around the sunset duo than the twins ^^

#another reason im wanting to branch out into writing has to do with how hard it is to find raph-focused fics and oneshots #i bookmark every single one i come across #having said that... i don't have many bookmarked raph fics. like at all. :( #and i have like five different things im working on #but they only exist because they scratch the itch in my brain unlike 90% of the fics i read :((( #rottmnt #asks open

Fav PaiSky fics of all time

(Update) Almost all of them are one chapter fics and easier to keep up with. - P.s dont forget to look at the tags of fics. Also this list is based on how many times i have reread all of them which is countless at this point and also these are my comfort fics.

[cal-cium-the-nerd]

me: oh i'm sure no one ever rereads any of my fics, ever :) haha why would anyone do that? lmao also me but about other people's fics:

#this is especifically about gallus' hearth god fic #its been over a year since i first read it and im still not sane about it #haunts my every thought (lovingly) #though in general i reread a lot of fics. if it's in my bookmarks i've likely read it more than once

[gentil-minou]

Back when I had no followers and didn't understand the tagging system I did this thing called Fic Recs Friday's that no one saw where I shared a fic from my bookmarks and just gushed abpit a fic i loved (the first one was Penumbra by @/heartfulselkie BTW. Every ML fan should read Penumbra by @/heartfulselkie thnx)

I've been thinking about doing it again cause there's sooooo many great fics and I just want to scream about them so would folks be interested? Right now would mostly be mdzs and mxtx cause that's just what I'm reading right now also I might not make every Friday adfghjkll

#i just love fics so much you guys i want to talk about the fics im reading soooooo bad #every day i open the fic rec blog like its my morning newspaper so i can rec my fave fics its almost obsessive tbh #but like goshhhh theres so much good fic out there and its not enough to just comment and bookmark it i need to shove it in peoples faces #and tell them lOOOOOK AT THISSSSSS #i cant remember if i deleted that first fic rec post i was so sad cause no one saw it #bushy you absolute bobble head no one saw it cause your paranoid 18 year old self checked off the hide yourself from the tahs option #and then frogot about it for 5 years 😭😭😭😭😭 like girl please

[rotisseries]

reading a fic and knowing just from the first few paragraphs that it's gonna be a mind blowing read like oh every word typed in here is a banger I'll be thinking of this for the rest of my life. and you're on scene 3

#like. a good portion of fics I'm not sure how much I like them until the end #I'm like oh this is fine this is fun whatever. and then the ending is good enough that it shoots up my enthusiasm and I bookmark it #but this one. oh my god. every single line. op you get it you get everything #everyone go read a bird in your teeth by rushvalleys on ao3 it's zelink

[h-doodles]

Since you have a lot of opinions about Sunflower fics, do you have any recommendations :p? I do generally agree with you about the derth of good works on them - kind of hoping for something I've maybe slept on.

Okay, I'll try,

First of all — I want everyone, and I mean everyone to read Coda for a Crestfallen Caitiff by MercuriallyApathetic, who also wrote The Strange Summer of Sunny Whatshisface (still one of my favorite longfics to this day but a lot more lighthearted). Coda is a masterpiece, it makes me insane, it is criminally underrated, I want to inhale its essence, and when I first read it it gave me a panic attack and a mental breakdown that lasted three straight days (/pos). Definitely read the tags and prepare yourself mentally but JESUS CHRIST I need everyone to read it. Please. You will regret it for a few hours but it is... an experience. To me at least. And to the two people I recommended it to who gave me feedback.

Then there's sunflower seeds in the rearview mirror by @andrewwtca which remains probably my favorite multichapter OMORI fic of all time (you might spot my essay-comments in the later chapters, I love this fic so much. I didn't end up writing one for the last chapter but man did it hit me hard). Very intriguing with a captivating style and an unreliable narrator mechanic that I am absolutely in love with. Everything by that author is excellent.

We have, of course, literally everything by BetweenDisorders. Arsenic is partly inspired by one of their fics ! (you know the one.) Their characterization of both Sunny and Basil (but especially Basil, because I'm gay) makes me froth at the mouth. Their style is very recognizable and honestly one of the best I've ever seen. But more generally, they have really original and intriguing ideas (like communication, in which Basil and Sunny are two computers... Did I mention how I'm a sucker for original/unique plots and premises enough yet) and everything they do is something you've never seen before. It's amazing.

Note to Self: Don't Be Gay in Faraway Town by witheredahlia is also very, very good. It's a lot lighter, but it still made my gay little heart ache, because I'm a sucker for misunderstandings done correctly (fight me).

Detective Sunny by Det_Sun is genuinely one of the most creative, fascinating OMORI fics I've seen, and also way too underrated. It's an excellent read, and there's a bunch of ideas in it that you know go deeper than what is shown, and it makes my brain go at the speed of lights. Many many thoughts about this one. (Side note: I fucking love it when there's unexplored ideas in fics. Makes my brain go brrr. Not everything has to be shown and when I see hints of "behind the scene" thoughts and character background that isn't discussed much but still implied, my brain becomes a feral animal. I don't know if that makes sense...)

#im recommending fics that can be morally be read by/recommended to everyone because i know my demographic #but i literally just went through my bookmarks and ooh'ed and ahh'ed at every other fic so i linked them lol. #i'm not linking 'the telltale of a recovering megalomaniac' by shootingstarlightt because im trying to link underrated things #but it's also very good. #there's also Drying on the Steps by DeepFriedBasil but i can't recommend it because i haven't finished reading it !! #but it's so intriguing and unique and you can spot me in the comments of the first few chapters trying to make sense of it all. #I didn't link Culinary Conversations for the same reason (I have yet to catch up on it unfortunately) but it's MAGICAL it's INCREDIBLE #I NEED MORE FICS THAT WRITE STRANGER LIKE THIS. PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE #on the topic of characterization: Sunny & Mari Edition™ we also have Mari Doesn't Die At The End by CoreyWW #and The Very Best by nullmeh. both are very very good. #Deep Down We're Still The Same Kids by witheredahlia is also great from what I remember but I... don't remember much #there's some fics in my bookmarks i just... don't remember. oops. #...i hope this post isn't too long. i'm leaving some stuff in the tags because linking them in the post would've made it 3ft long #and also because when i give fic recs I feel like I have to arguments it and for some of those I don't really know what to say except Good #please read Coda for a Crestfallen Caitiff. please. #rant #omori #ask #ephemeralspirit-blog #fic recs #most if not all of these are sunflower btw ! i basically only read sunflower. #sorry to my fellow ze[...]ae lovers btw. i'd recommend them but. again. i know my demographic #arsenic #<- i tag every single mention of him for someone who had it blocked sorry

Cale and kids go flower viewing and end up be dazzled flowered. He gets found by Ron when he is makes flower crowns, bookmarks something and Ron is thinking about the past or something. Dunno c:

With spring brought the delicate blossoms that decorated the tops of trees, their loose petals carried away by the warm breeze. The forest surrounding their villa was slowly painted over by soft shades of pinks and whites.

The sunlight streamed through the glass panes of Cale's balcony door, settling onto the red haired man where he laid, basking in the welcoming heat. His face partially covered where he buried it in the white linens.

"OOF--" his eyes snapped open as three familiar weights pounced onto his stomach.

"Human!" Raon's voice was filled with wonder, "Wake up!!"

"Yeah! Cale-nya, wake up!" Hong joined in.

His eyes met the bright, sparkling ones that belonged to his three children, where they laid on his front.

"The trees are in full bloom," On spoke softly, "Come look at them with us!"

The younger two began to whine, begging him from the start so that he had no room to try to wiggle out of going out. He wouldn't have rejected their offer anyways, but... they knew how weak he was to their bright.. sparkling... pleading eyes....

"Alright, get off me then," he sighed.

The two boys hooted with joy, and the eldest, although not as loud, had the same amount of joy visible on her face.

-

The three children sped through the grassy field as the blossoms rained down around them. Their hands reached out towards the clear sky as they created a game out of catching the fluttering petals.

Cale felt a familiar pressure behind his eyes as he activated record, his body barely heating up a notch, but easily cooled down by a gust of wind. The fluttering bliss in his chest, the children's laughter, the beautiful weather... they were all things that he wanted to remember forever.

Soon enough, though, the sunlight and the children's tittering laugher lulled him into a comfortable nap. Delicate blades of grass tickled against his arm with every sweep of the wind.

(the wind elementals dance around him, singing songs of spring as the blossoms follow their lead, cascading down around the human).

-

"-oung master..." a voice calls out to him, pulling him back out from his slumber, "Young master, I've brought refreshments."

Cale's eyes fluttered open at the sound of Ron's voice and he was immediately greeted by the sight of flowers surrounding him. He reached up to scratch at the ticklish feeling in his hair to find a flower crown.

He blearily looked at his old butler, who somehow knew exactly what he was thinking, and told him that the trio had returned to the villa, leaving Ron to wake him when they heard that there were freshly baked cookies waiting for them.

wow, betrayal.

Flowers and petals dropped into his lap as he sat up. He pinched the stem of one between his fingers, twirling it back and forth as he thought.

"Get me some albums"

"Yes, young master," Ron's dutifully responded. Even without looking up, Cale could practically see the way the butler's lips probably curled into a smile with just his tone of voice.

(Cale spends a few more minutes carefully placing the flowers in between parchment paper in books before pressing them shut).

#tcf #lcf #trash of the count’s family #lout of the count's family #cale henituse #raon miru #tcf on #tcf hong #asks #salaapaoo fic ideas #thank you so much for asking !!!!!!! #big brain thoughts #am so soft #he totally has a bookmark with their flowers that he uses every time he reads #which is like #everyday #I think he would probably have a picture frame of them all together and have some of the flowers in the frame as well??

[la-florecita]

the amount of fics in my marked for later is crazy. Amazing how quickly it fills up by scrolling thru people’s bookmarks

#i read someone’s fic. If i like it i look thru more of their fics #and then i look thru their bookmarks #it gets wild when it’s in the thousands #before I only had like 7 fics in my marked for later #now there’s easily over 200 and counting #for every fic i read 10+ replace it

[nathaniacolver]

oh supercorp fic writers & their love of mangling the "gift horse" idiom

actual idiom: "don't look a gift horse in the mouth"

meaning: don't complain about the help/favors/good luck that comes your way

fics:

"on leading the gift-horse to water (and other mangled metaphors)" by @the-ominous-owl

"A Discovery of Denial (The Road to Romance is Riddled with Realizations)", Ch. 3, by @wr8tur

"i've just seen a face (i can't forget the time or place where we just met)" by @karalovesallthegirls

"they don't love you like i love you" by @searidings

go show these authors & these fics some love btw while you're at it. all FANTASTIC. (all authors are their same users here on tumblr except owly's uses hyphens, not underscores)

#is this like a thing? that i don't know about #like imagine i've just collected all these observations of a 'phenomenon' for it to have been intentional all along #btw i DID NOT SCRAPE i literally manually went to all my bookmarked sc fics and did ctrl+f on every single chapter for the word 'horse' #Y'ALL I JUST ACCIDENTALLY ERASED ALL MY WORK I AM GOING TO DIE. now i have to search them all again smh #well i got them all back. so now what #anyway these were all in my bookmarks bc they are GOOD! go read them #supercorp fanfic #supercorp #fic writing #idioms #supergirl #searidings #karalovesallthegirls #wr8tur #the-ominous-owl #ngl i had to gas myself up to actually @ them here haha 😅

[greenbergsays]

I wrote 700-ish words of new Wesper and then dutifully went to add some more lines to the FAC rewrite, so I think we can mark down today as a Good Writing Day

#writing #every time i feel like just giving up on the fac rewrite #i go to the bookmarks / comments on the fic and read the ones that are like WHY IS THIS ABANDONED I LOVE IT #and it gives me the boost i need to keep trudging on #in case you ever wondered if your comments mattered to a fic writer #sometimes you're all that stands between a writer and their fic being Officially Abandoned

[tciddaemina]

sort of hate people who leave negative stuff in the bookmarks of a fic tbh. like sure yeah you have no obligation to write anything, but if you are going to write something why the fuck would you make it a bland as list of all the things you disliked about the work

like bro, you could just keep it in your head. say it out loud even. write it on a post it note if you must. but like damn why the fuck would you ever write a laundry of your shitty little peeves somewhere that the author is able to see it. authors can and do browse peoples comments in the bookmarks of their works bc people sometimes leave really touching heartwarming stuff there

just like. jesus fuck. if you have nothing nice to say then youre honestly free to shut the fuck up and move on

#short #oh i suppose it was maybe alright #just fucking salty bc some asshole was like #*sips wine snootily* oh i suppose ot was fine but certainly nothing mindblowing of course #*squints at 110k of pure acts of service and glowing devotion* i see no romance here but maybe later #hmm i feel no connectoon between the characters at their first meeting i suppose the author cannot match canon #can you guess which fic im talking about? #bro why the fuck would you write this and leave it out there for me to see #also like fuck you a lot do you know how much fucking time goes into writing? #100k+ is not #bitch people call a 50k fic long #i just #urg #can you block people on ao3? #i literally just never want this person to be able to read one of my fics again #of if they do not be able to comment or write anything in their fucking bookmarks #like man i dont expect every person who reads a story to like it or to fall over themselves with compliments #but insulting a fic in a smarmy backhanded way of is just shitty #fuck that guy in particular #or girl #fuck them #no more fic for you #note in a box

[calsvoid]

can glee stop invading my life for one moment thanks

#glee #sebastian smythe #me but with specifically seblaine fics #i went through the entire tag #like obviously i did not read every single one of the fics #but still #my bookmark folder for seblaine fics is longer than any other bookmark folder i have #this is on one of thesequelnobodywanted’s posts btw

[cornerihaunt]

lmao counted how many words the works i have bookmarked in 2023 and it’s. a big number

#boohoo i am not reading anymore!!!! GIRLLLLLLLL #anyways it’s. 3550049 words #three and a half million words #and this is the stuff i have bookmarked. like i feel like every… 5 fics i bookmark one? so the actual amount of words i have read this - #- year is probably like. insane #rambles
