i think the hardest thing for me to write is endings.... which makes sense since i've never written any 💀 

#one day hike the only thing i've ever finished loool #and that ending makes me cringe. the one in this first draft i just wrote also makes me cringe #and i've almost finished another project but. i dont know if im finished actually cus idk how i want it to end #im stuck on this chapter bc i Could just end it. but i cant tell if it feels right to end it there #or i could keep going. but then i dont really know what to do lmfao #and tnp isnt ending for like 500 years so that's a problem for future me #i just want it to hit right... i dont want it to feel disappointing or too abrupt #sigh. sigh sigh sigh #also trying to get inspiration is like pulling teeth lately nothing i watch or read is really hitting #read a novella that was super hyped up and it was SOOOO disappointing!! i wanted to like it so bad... rip #anyone with extreme horror recs (preferably written by women) pls... hmu im dying

[beelzzzebub]

sorry i reblogged ur post ten times, my ocd just really wanted me to

#with a joking tone but also seriously though #bc i'll go to reblog a post a couple times if i really like it or if it resonates with me #and sometimes that's alright #but then other times once i hit that button a couple times #the ocd gets a callin and i gotta finish it out with the right number in the right rhythm #so anyway #sorry if i've ever spam reblogged a post from anyone's blog #i probably number 1 really liked it and number 2 was being shaken by the compulsions lmfao #boink #ocd #also especially on my computer #that clicky track pad is a reeeal good recipe for tics #but that's a whole other story

[leonardcohenofficial]

i do not fancy myself a real playwright but every once in a while i find myself deeply possessed by a story that won’t escape my brain via any other form but theatrical script and then i don’t write it :D

#(this isn't entirely true; i find myself feeling deeply crazed and write eight pages at a time and THEN don't write for long stretches of #time because this is the way my brain works) #anyways; having three script drafts going now is an incredibly unusual scenario for me but we'll see if any of them ever get finished LMFAO

wip wednesday: slider is 95% not a wip anymore! coming saturday hopefully! wednesday if all hope fails

#definitely possible it’s Wednesday cause i have to work on a 5k lesbian wwii romance for class today & tmr #prove i CAN write women as their own characters & not just as objects to reflect men’s sexuality #(allegations i will not beat in this slider one shot btw. sorry.) #1. conveniently placed f-14 and f-18 models helping me edit #2. idk. im running out of excerpts to use. i just liked this paragraph it was fun to write. #3. again running out of excerpts to use. my main motivation for finishing it was that i didn’t know what to post for wip weds anymore #top gun #top gun maverick #pete maverick mitchell #tom iceman kazansky #icemav #top gun fanfiction #ron slider kerner #this one-shot contradicts many other things i have written but mostly my mediocre hangman one-shot so honestly just forget about that one #i might leave a note on this one on ao3: ‘forget that you ever read one-shot 3/4 please this directly contradicts it’ #im feeling okayish about slider. it drags in the middle. idk. i just want to stop thinking about it lmfao. get it OUT of my head

Home - Vash

hm are any of us surprised i churned this out at 1 am because i binged this show and couldn’t sleep? no? me neither

Anyway, *SPOILERS* ahead for Trigun Stampede (I’d say if you’ve seen episode 8 you’re safe), but nothing too crazy. This takes place in one of the random 150 years of Vash’s adventures. Enjoy Vash finding out he’s allergic to lavender and being the best boy ☺️

Also, sorry if some of these characters don’t act very canon. I’ve only seen Trigun Stampede and not the original or the manga and thus am kinda guesstimating how these characters would act in this scenario

Vash hasn’t visited Home in nearly twenty years. Even though time doesn't really have any meaning to him, it does to the people he cares about, so he can’t help but feel a little guilty as he approaches the ship. He knows he should come by more often to visit, and that Brad and Luida and the rest of the Home team would love to see him, but he can’t help but feel like a burden every time he does.

His cybernetic arm is hanging by little more than a thread, torn apart in a recent brawl over yet another plant that he’d only narrowly managed save. He’s exhausted. His arm hangs uselessly at his side, only jolting with the occasional shocking twitch.

To his luck, Brad and Luida are out of cryosleep and both wrap him up in a warm embrace as he walks through the ship’s doors, nearly sweeping him off his feet.

“Vash!” They both cry. Warmth spreads through Vash’s chest as Brad ruffles his hair and Luida buries her face in his shoulder. He remembers the days when he used to look up at them as a child, but now he towers over them.

“How have you been? Are you all right? We were hoping to see you this time when we woke up,” Luida says. She looks older, maybe in her late 40s now, and Brad looks about the same. Their hair is beginning to become streaked with white, and deep wrinkles have already set across their faces. It’s part of the reason he hates coming back here, to see them getting older while he stays eternally young.

“I’m okay, I missed you both. Have you been well?” Even though his arm is killing him, he doesn’t want to bring it up yet. He’s too wrapped up in the feeling of being welcomed home and seeing friendly faces, seeing the pride and affection and love in their eyes. If only he could bottle up this feeling and take it with him.

“Yes, we’ve been— Christ, Vash, what’ve you done to your arm this time?” Brad finally takes notice when a spark of electricity spikes off his arm. He gently picks up the appendage, turning it over in his hands with a practised grace.

“Ah-ha, well, about that…” He grins sheepishly, cheeks burning red as he scratches the back of his head. “I saved the hand this time, though!”

Brad rolls his eyes and starts walking towards his room, waving him along. “C’mon, I’ve got my tools in your room, as usual. Luida, we’ll be done in time for dinner.”

“Don’t take too long! I want to catch up with Vash too!” Luida calls after them. Vash turns to give her a beaming smile and a wave goodbye before following Brad down the hall.

It feels so good to be Home.

A couple of hours later and lots of admonishing from Brad, Vash’s arm is beginning to regain feeling again.

“You should go out into the garden and see the new flora that Luida has been working on,” Brad tells him as he’s bent over his forearm. He’s just putting on the last of the stabilising touches to make it “Vash-proof”, as he calls it.

“There’s this new one called lavender. It’s got a long, thin stem and purple bunches of petals at the top. The humans on Earth used to use it for its calming effects. Smells great too. Go check it out, but make sure you’re back in time for dinner.”

One more flourish with welding tool, and he’s done. Brad pushes himself out of the chair, swiping his palms together. “And take better care of that arm!”

Vash chuckles, flexing his left hand. The joints feel better already. “Thank you, Brad. I’ll go take a look.”

He slides into his coat and follows Brad out of the room before making his own way down to the garden. The path is so familiar to him, he could do it with his eyes closed.

The garden looks gorgeous as it always has. It’s sunset now, creating a golden, rose-tinted shadow across the flora. He walks down the stone path, taking note of the new blue flora popping up, a new tree that's grown, before he finds the lavender that Brad had been speaking about.

Huh, Vash hadn’t expected it to look like that. It looks more like a bush or a tumbleweed than an actual flower. He bends down to get a closer look.

The purple petals are so stunning that he almost doesn’t notice the itch blossoming in his nose. He reaches his hand out to touch the stem, then feels the soft petals with the pad of his finger. Ah, that’s the scent that Brad mentioned. He loves it. It smells light and clean.

He rubs at his nose as he bends closer to the plant. He doesn’t dare break off a stem to get it closer to his face, so instead he crouches into a squat to lean forward and smell it.

It does feel calming. Vash can see why the humans on Earth liked it so much. Craving more, he inhales deeply through his nose just as the itch becomes too much to bear—

“Hih’iTSHhh! Hh.. H’TSCHhh!” The two sneezes catch him by surprise. He has to catch himself on the ground to avoid losing his balance.

Shaking his head, he sniffles and paws at his nose, which is beginning to take on a pink flush. How strange, he thinks. Must be something in the air. Usually only dust and the desert sand makes him sneeze, but there’s none of that in here.

He wants to sniff the lavender again and reaches out to feel the petals, but the itch has buried itself deeper in his nose. His breath catches in his chest, his aquamarine eyes slipping shut as his lips draw back over his teeth—

“H’TSH’itsch! Hh.. hihh— h’ITSCHhh’ue! Hh’eHTSSHhh’iu!” The last sneeze is so forceful that it makes him lose his balance. He falls back on his ass and tumbles flat on his back. His glasses are askew on his pink, irritated nose. Allergic tears fill his eyes as he stares up at the rose sunset sky.

Can he be allergic to flora? Or perhaps it’s this one in particular? He’s never had such a reaction to flora before, even in Rem’s garden.

Vash sniffles and rubs at his nose, which has now started to run. Instead of abating the itch, it only serves to set him off again— “H’ITSHhhiew! Haah.. heh-hh! H’ihdTSShh!”

It must be the lavender that's causing this. He can’t help but feel a bit sad, because he had really liked the scent of the lavender. Maybe Luida will have some medicine to offset the symptoms.

He lays there on the ground for a while, staring up at the sky, feeling a swirl of melancholy and happiness in his chest. Those two emotions seem to be the familiar, funny feeling that he always carries with him, even when he's back on the ship.

He stays there, sneezing occasionally and sniffling, until Luida calls for him for dinner. She chides at him for laying on the ground and says he’ll catch a cold like that, which makes him grin. He lets her shoo him inside and down the corridor towards the dining hall. Vash can’t help but revel in the tenderness he feels at her gentle reprimands, the way she fixes his hair or dusts off his coat or gives him one last hug before they enter the dining hall, because it all feels like Home.

#how many times did you watch the clips of vash sneezing to get inspiration Finn? yes #I hope this is good but if it isn't well. this is all I got #im so tired lmfao but I wanted to do this bc if I do a fic like this when i' #when I'm fresh and not tired then it'll be too Long and we all know how I like to ramble in fics. this is the shortest fic I've ever #written and it feels wrong #anyway #my writing #snzfic #I hope I captured vash's sweetness but also his undeniable sadness bc that's what I fucking feel after finishing the show #can a plant be allergic to a plant? Idk! but he is! #I mean like lavender barely counts and anyway its so specific and fragrant that I figured why not right #I kinda feel like vash would like being allergic tho bc it means like.... idk I have this theory that he wants to be human in some way #or like wants to be more connected to humans #so being allergic to flowers would make him happy bc it means he'd be more alike humans if that makes sense? but idk I don't want to push #a million theories into a snzfic im just here for a good time #if I open this tomorrow morning and reread it and think it sucks im going to die #enjoy the one allergy fic I post a decade guys

I can count on one hand how many shows I’ve watched in their entirety that had Good Endings

#not good as in i like what happened. good as in narratively deserved #well written and well thought out. makes any fucking sense at all. isn’t the dumbest shit you’ve ever seen #I was trying to think of more and realized that I haven’t finished probably 80% of the shows I ever started #bc they got bad <3 so I stopped watching <333 #but my bf doesn’t like to leave things unfinished. so I get punished for it. lmfao

[orcelito]

[essektheylyss]

The real problem with doing rewrites and edits is that every time the pressure to Not Fuck It Up increases, and oh boy is it HARD.

#this is REALLY the struggle of editing ngl #how many times must I write something before it is GOOD #currently at 5k. thoughts and prayers pls. #anyway this book will be great if I ever manage to FUCKING FINISH IT TO MY LIKING #shitty wip summary like 'tfw your evil polycule unionizes' #honestly it gets worse from there lmfao
