Okay my writing brain is simultaneously extremely exhausted/borderline burnt-out and also working on several different ideas at once, so there’s a HOT chance I’ll never get to this concept, but I’m writing/rambling the (extended) idea here so it’s out there—
Consider: You’ve repeatedly had terrible luck with auto mechanics, to the point where you’re absolutely desperate for genuine help. You’re sick of having to fight through the hoards of lying salesmen who are trying to trick you into paying exorbitant prices just because they can tell you’re not car-savvy. You want someone who doesn’t even look at your face, someone who can just figure out what the fuck is going on with your vehicle and can fix it for a reasonable price. That’s it.
Cue your friend telling you that they’ve heard from a friend of a friend who’s heard of someone, a reliable source tho, that there’s a guy who can fix anything, and fix it fast. He’s just weird. And abrasive. And rude. He doesn’t sugar coat or extort, and he barely even pays attention to you if you bring him something. The problem is, he doesn’t have a phone, and he doesn’t work specific hours, or even specific days. Also, his shop is in the middle of nowhere. If you go there you’ll just have to hope you catch him, and if you don’t, sucks to be you.
So you take the address from your friend and drive your shitbox down increasingly abandoned looking country roads until you arrive at what looks like a very large, run down garage. Scrap metal litters the yard outside, everything from old iron bathtubs to what looks like the shell of an ancient military tank. Youre desperate enough at this point that you’re willing to risk the potential rabid serial killer who might live at such a place, and you knock on the door as instructed.
You’re in luck—someone grunts out a curse from inside and drops what sounds like a steel suitcase full of metal door knobs. More clattering, then you hear the mystery mechanic yell, “come in!” You contemplate turning back, but no such luck. Your car has been making the worst noises lately, and the entire last mile to this place it was screeching bloody murder.
So you go inside. It’s dark and there’s metal everywhere, including piled up on the wooden crates that look like they might be a makeshift front counter. The cash register balances precariously on top seems convincing enough.
You nervously say, “hello?” toward the darkness through the door in the ramshackle wall, but there’s no reply. Then, lights flick on in the back room, and you hear very heavy footsteps stomping toward you.
“Cash only,” a rasping voice snaps from behind a pile of scrap nearby. You flinch, but you came prepared, so you yank a wad of bills from your jacket and slap them down on the teetering crates. Be short and to the point, you remind yourself. He doesn’t like ramblers.
“My car is fucked,” you blurt out. “Heard you can fix it.”
Silence follows your words, then a figure emerges from behind the mountains of metal. It’s a man—an extremely tall and broad man with shaggy, disheveled gray hair. You’re struck for a moment by what he’s wearing, curious about the choices he’d made while picking out his work ensemble. Usually mechanics wore coveralls to keep the mess from staining their clothes, but this man is dressed in a plain white t-shirt and jeans, both carelessly smeared with oil, dirt, and rust. What really confuses you, though, is the pair of dark, round sunglasses settled on the bridge of his nose. How can he see in this shitty, dim lighting?
He really doesn’t look at you as he moves forward, his gaze apparently already trained on the part of your car that’s visible through the outside doorway. You’d forgotten to close the door. The man doesn’t seem to mind, though. He passes you without so much as a glance, then leans against the door frame and starts muttering to himself, still apparently focused on your vehicle.
“Haven’t seen you around before,” the man remarks suddenly, turning his shoulders slightly toward you without actually looking at you. You jump, having been convinced he’d forgotten you were standing there.
“I had no other choice,” you say, then you bite your lip. You’d been surprised into blunt honesty, something you would’ve preferred to avoid. Instead of seeming offended, however, the man lets out a raspy, barking laugh.
“Well aren’t you just the smartest little cookie that’s waltzed into my shop in ages,” he drawls, the words making you bristle with anger. He finally turns back toward you, taking a few steps closer, and—much to your rapidly rising displeasure—he looks you straight in the face. His gaze, while hidden behind the dark glasses, is almost tangible as it rakes over your features. Goosebumps ripple down your arms. You’re pinned under his invisible gaze, suddenly terrified. You really shouldn’t have come here.
The cash register behind you makes a very loud dinging sound, and you nearly start out of your skin.
“Alright. I’ll fix your car, little cookie crumb,” the man says, moving past you to pick up the stack of bills you’d put on the crate. “You can wait in here.” He doesn’t even count the money before shoving it into his back pocket. You’re frozen again, insulted beyond belief by the incredibly patronizing nickname he’s given you but relieved nearly to the point of tears that he’s willing to work on your vehicle. The man apparently doesn’t notice your conflicted state. He walks toward the back room, then pauses in the doorway to send you one final glance over his shoulder.
“Don’t bother me while I’m working,” he drawls, and you see a flash of a strangely silvery-green eye behind the dark glasses as he turns back around. “If you disrupt my process, you’ll regret it dearly.”
——————————
Cue shenanigans, you peek and see that he’s telekinetically manipulating metal, then he catches you and sexy shenanigans happen—extra plus if you’ve got a septum ring, which I do so I’m giving this reader one too lmao😂😂

Finally caught up to the latest chapter of the manga and I’m so happy to see all the movies’ character being brought to canon, all of them are too good to just appear in one movie.
Although I find it interesting that they showed Rody’s siblings but not Rody himself and it might be wishfully thinking, but I will gladly take it if its because he’s busy stealing a plane from his pilot academy and is in his way to Japan to support his boyfriend.

Every time I rewatch SAO abridged I resist the urge to write about the characters; I think this year is the year I break and write something.

Ron: Harry’s sulking, maybe he’s having a lover’s spat with Draco
Harry: No, there was no spat
Pansy: Oh, but something happened
Harry: I don’t want to talk about it
Ginny: But I sense you’re going to and I don’t want to hear about it. Excuse me
Pansy: What’d you do, Romeo? You pour maple syrup all over your body and ask Draco if he was in the mood for a short stack?
Ron: Did you think it would be funny to put on a pair of panties and jump around, but it wound up just creeping him out?
Harry: What? No
Ron: I’m just asking, mate...It happens
Pansy: Did you ask him to start waxing?
Harry: No
Ron: Did you start waxing?
Harry: No
Pansy: While making love, did you accidentally spank your own ass and cry out Mommy?
Harry: I’m walking away from you now
Pansy: That wasn’t a no
Ron: Yeah, I think we’re getting close

How do I EXPLAIN to you that once again I straight-baited myself. I did it with OFMD and now once more with GO2.
"So many queers! How delightful!" "Oh yes, you go Nina and Maggie! Uhh god, someone get me a girlfriend asap"
"Oh my, Lord Beelzebub and Gabriel are a thing?? Good for them!"
"So I guess they couldn't give us ineffable husbands so they are giving us more que-"
And then I screeched like a lunatic when Crowley kisses Aziraphale, because ONCE AGAIN, I did not see it coming.
How?? How do I keep missing the signs that they are not going to queer-bait me?? I should have had more faith in Neil. I've learnt my lesson.
Do I think they are super gay for each other? Yes, of course. Not even a question.
Did I dream of this happening? I mean, without the break-up, but yes, a million times yes.
Did I, and I can't emphasize this enough, ONCE AGAIN fail to read almost ALL of the gay-ass moments? You know I did.
Lord, have mercy on me, I do want a girlfriend, but I fear I'll be proposed to without knowing we were on a relationship 😭

Do you have an idea of how many chapters Stay With Me will be?
We're not completely certain yet! One of us (me) is notorious for over writing way more than planned (by at least double or more), so it's hard to predict exactly where it will end. But, I can tell you that right now we're writing in the mid-90s, and I think we'll hit 100 chapters, and not go too far over it.
Now, the sequel... 😘

I also do realize I’m ghost blogging, or whatever you can call this, but I’m just throwing out ideas on occasion because I think DA is tired of hearing me ramble.
I made an animation semi-recently, and while I’m not sure if I’ll post it here or not, I’m thinking of posting WIPs of future projects here... if I remember to, anyway. I hesitate to give away too much info because that kills my motivation for some reason, so we’ll just call it a potential thing for now-

Don't wanna make you feel uncomfortable, just really really wanna meet you, we've talked before but you couldn't really know who exactly am I while you are floating in a sea full of anons, nevertheless, I'll come by once in a while until I've peeked your interest enough to ask me about my identity
I have to inform you, you're getting closer day by day.

Hello!
I want to tell you that I actually learned a ton of new words from Rewind and your other fictions, when i was reading Rewind, I spent like 20% of the time on Google.
It is the first fiction I read in English that has over 200k word. :0
ps: Sorry if this looks a bit chaotic, I am just bad at writing in general, no matter what language I write in. (つД`)
I just want you to know thatI love your writings! I even wrote a long bookmark on ao3, tho it isn't in English.
By the way, surprisingly, your Vindictive Care got me back into UT Fandom again after leaving for 1 year.,xD
sorry this is a bit late but i'm glad i've managed to expand your vocabulary XD
the fact that rewind is 200k+ words is still a matter that i'm proud of. along w the fact i managed to end a story at all! granted there's an unfinished wip sequel in the making but i'm still so proud of myself :D
hey! it's all good, i think you did great. your only misspelling is 'thatl' so yeah!
awww, thank you!!! i'm pretty sure every writer loves it when there's a long bookmark about their story, no matter the language.
pfpfpt i'm glad?? sorry?? both?? it's been a while since i've been back into the ut fandom and i'm still a bit sorry for putting vindictive care in hiatus.
