House and Wilson :3
I mean this in the most affectionate way possible but how dare you make me read your username with my own two eyes 😭
Apparently I have a lot of thoughts about these two, lol.
House, of course, doesn't hand out candy. He answers the door with a tube of mini M&Ms in hand, and tells the kids he's out of candy while he pops Vicodin out of the tube. (Alternatively, he just does a Eustace Bagg-style jumpscare and yells ""OOGA BOOGA BOOGA.")
At work, he continues the Vi-candy bit. There's a bowl of typical Halloween candy on his desk, but any time his team reaches for some, he gets onto them with either a buzzer-type sound or a whack to the fingers with his cane. To cause problems, in the clinic and/or the waiting room, he'll just toss out candy to the kids.
Wilson, on the other hand, loves trick-or-treaters, and gets the Good Shit every year. If he can't find small bags of the Good Candy, he settles for full bars of the regular stuff. He decorates his apartment door and puts out a jack-o'-lantern. (One year, a kid smashes the hell out of it. And steals his next one. And replaces his third with a different, more obscene one.)(It's House. The kid is House.)
He doesn't decorate his office much at work (he has vague concerns about ghosts being "morbid" in an oncologist's office) but he puts out an equally nice bowl of candy on his desk.
He and House are, of course, well-behaved grown adults who don't ever get into candy-related shenanigans and how dare you sully House's good name by insinuating that he stole all of Wilson's fancy candy and blaming it on Chase. Honestly he's hurt that you'd even think that.
If they're together, Wilson sends House out to pick up candy ("Yeah sure, send the cripple to go brave the busy streets in the cold at night--" "House, shut up and go get it."), and is both irritated and unsurprised when House shows up with the most old-lady candy imaginable. ("Where did you even get those? I thought they just... magically appeared in your house once you passed 65 or got grandchildren.")
Tumblr media
They are, inexplicably and to House's dismay, a huge hit with the trick-or-treaters.

writing patterns
Tagged by @rosieposiepuddingnpie! Thank you, beetlebug!
Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!
How to Get Married without a Single Date | Meg 2 | Jiuming/Jonas | 5.2k
The quake of a rough pocket of air is probably all that could’ve gotten Jonas to open his eyes after the day he’s had.
2. Odyssey of Memory | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 1.8k
The quip comes back to him as Derek steps out onto the porch, held together by wood glue and a collapsing, sliding sort of faith.
3. A Fine Foray into Fashionable Fellatio | Harry Potter | Ron/Draco | 31.6k
Shouts burst from an open door across the street.
4. He Speaks in Petals | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 4.7k
Light falls in soft swathes through the grimy, open windows of Derek’s loft, the scent of cold air mingling with stale coffee.
5. Reciprocal Determinism | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 4.2k
“We’re going to have to decide what to do,” Scott says, throaty, uncomfortable with what he’s potentially co-signing.
6. Sinking and Surfacing | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 9.5k
Derek scrapes a knuckle against the bristle on his jaw and waits out the light.
7. Anchor's Away | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 2.5k
The blood sticks.
8. Hibernation Station | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 72.9k
Stiles meets his future husband on a rather unspectacular Wednesday.
9. Sevens and Eights | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 10k
Stiles has a bandage slung under his chin like a disembodied helmet strap when Derek first meets him.
10. Stopgap | Teen Wolf | Stiles/Derek | 6k
The heavy rain from earlier in the afternoon has transformed the unspoiled banks of snow into an unappealing slush of gray and gravel, and left the sky unhelpfully darker than the hour would suggest.

Self vs. non-self (and the integration of the Winter Soldier into Bucky Barnes)
As you pointed out in your question, my Bucky has incorporated the Winter Soldier into her self-identity. Whereas MCU!Bucky says, "I am not the Winter Soldier anymore," my Bucky, like 616!Bucky, has accepted that the Winter Soldier will always be a part of her. She's discussed this before with @invncibleiron's Tony -- that Bucky Barnes and the Winter Soldier aren't two separate personalities.
Bucky has come to the conclusion, looking back on her life, that the seeds of the Winter Soldier were always there. She's always had a certain ruthlessness to her, especially in defense of the people that she cares about. As a child in Brooklyn, that usually involved not being afraid to use her fists to teach someone who hurt her sisters or Steve or her friend Rosie Finn a lesson. She fought by trying to get the bullies on the ground or running away as quickly as possible, even if that meant breaking a nose or knocking out some teeth.
These people are mine. How dare you try to harm them?
Still, when she was young she did her best not to leave wounds that wouldn't heal. But the brutality of the war and the trauma from having been raped, tortured, and experimented on in the Red Skull's factory stripped away a lot of her younger self's qualms about that. She found that killing came easily to her, and also found that she didn't feel particularly bad about killing, either. It had to be done, so she did it -- competently, thoroughly, and without remorse. The Nazis and the Red Skull were murdering innocent people and causing untold suffering for those who survived. Bucky found that unconscionable, so she did everything she could to put a stop to it in the most permanent way possible. Dead Nazis can't kill again.
This world is mine. How dare you try to destroy it?
The pieces of Bucky that would comprise the Winter Soldier were already in place by the time she fell off that train. All that was left for Zola and Karpov to do was to strip away the parts of her that weren't the Winter Soldier. The Winter Soldier is just Bucky Barnes with her conscience, memory, and free will removed. The fact that she was already suffering from amnesia caused by the fall and her subsequent death made their job easier. It would have taken a lot more work to break a Bucky who could remember who she was and what she believed.
I think it's important to point out that, even as the Winter Soldier, she wasn't a bully. She was competent and brutally efficient, but when she was controlled by the Soviets she always made an effort to avoid collateral damage, and she clashed with her handlers over that tendency on more than one occasion. Alexander Pierce broke her of that habit, but even when she was under his control, she never took any joy in hurting people. She followed orders. She did the job that was assigned to her, because that was all she knew how to do, but she did it without passion or pleasure.
When she finally escaped from HYDRA and came back to herself, she had to come to terms with the fact that yes, she had been the Winter Soldier. More than that, she still was the Winter Soldier. So she decided to make use of that fact. Bucky has always been practical. She'll deploy any tool in her arsenal, and the Winter Soldier is now another tool that she can use. People are terrified of the Winter Soldier, so she'll use the name and the reputation to strike fear into the people she has to fight.
There's also one additional fact that Bucky knows but has never given voice to, which is this: She's seen some of the worst the world has to offer, humanity at its most wretched, cruelest, and most malicious. Based on those experiences, she's come to the conclusion that sometimes, to make the world better and to spare innocents from death and suffering, certain people have to die. And, that being the case, she'll take the responsibility for killing those people, because she can bear it. She knows some of her friends, particularly Steve, would cut themselves up inside over having to make that call. So she'll make it instead to protect them.

For the character meme, Cassian Andor!
omg, love of my life
First impression: oh my God, look at that face
Impression now: Truly one of the all-time Catey Characters. I love a lot of stories in which bad and painful things happen, but I really love when there's a real sense of the weight and the stakes of those things, and I REALLY love when the people most carrying that weight are like. Aware of the story they're in and resigned to being in it anyway, I guess. Not an optimism but a love you can't shake. Obviously by Rogue One my boy is literally dying to give strangers hope for a better world but even in Andor season 1 he's got that tragic hero thing. Doomed by the narrative! Doing what he has to to move through it anyway!
Favorite moment: Easy but nonetheless probably true answer is beach with Jyn. The holding each other up! His eyes open! Man, come on. Strong runner-up: "Is that the best you've got?" to Kino Loy in One Way Out
Idea for a story: Cassian/B2 normal fun adventure, Doctor Who filler fic-style
Unpopular opinion: idk how unpopular this is but I was not especially moved by any part of the sister storyline.
Favorite relationship: I know Jyn is maybe the right answer but my actual answer is his droid besties lmao. I was delighted by the Cassian/K2 dynamic in Rogue One and then EVEN MORE DELIGHTED by Cassian/B2 in Andor. God! They love each other!! They're real friends!! B2 exclaiming "Cassian!" when he sees him in the season 1 finale, murder me
Favorite headcanon: I am so bad at having headcanons as ur token #CanonComplicit friend but I do like to think Cassian always has an ear open for news about Kino. Like, he knows what happened to Kino, nothing else could have happened to Kino, not that he thinks about it or dwells on it. But still, just in case.

RANDOM WIP SENTENCE MEME.
“Guessed?” Roy repeats. “Hold on, who’s got head coach?” He suddenly thinks he might have missed an e-mail, a text, a clandestine meeting, or a message by pigeon because Rebecca looks at him with an expression somewhere between consternated and amused.  “You?” She replies, ‘obviously’ unspoken but very clear in her tone.  “Me?” Roy mirrors, intelligently. It’s not surprise bouncing around in his skull like a DVD menu gone to sleep mode, but he can’t seem to make anything else come out of his mouth. There’s something slithering in his gut that tightens like a vice at the idea of being the head coach. It should be everything he wants, a fantastic career for a retired footballer, and yet—  “It shouldn’t be fucking me.” Then, more decisively: “No, it shouldn’t be.”  “It shouldn’t be you?” Rebecca says, taken aback.  “It shouldn’t be me,” Roy says, firmly.

[patching] -> for one muse to have just saved the other's life, and now on top of that they're sitting there patching up any injuries gained by either one of them, in the process
Life Savers
"That was reckless of you," Aguni said as he sat next to Caspian, patching up their wounds. He was an expert at it at this point, given what life had thrown at him. That didn't mean Aguni thought it was fine that Caspian through themselves into the line of fire for him.

for the halloween candy meme: chase, cameron, and foreman! :3
Okay so this is just a House MD blog now huh? I mean sure, I'm okay with that. 😭
Chase... bless his heart he tries. He doesn't have much of a sweet tooth, so his candy is either something like Dr. Peter's Bitter Drops or it's not candy at all. That's right. Dr. Robert Chase hands out raisins, old people candy, and baby apples. The man is constantly getting egged or TP'd. (He got dumpsack'd during the Raisin Catastrophe, but he's pretty sure that one was actually House.) One year he just gave up and bought a dollar-store bag of cheap-ass party favors--plastic fangs, spider rings, and so many Halloween stickers. He ran out after an hour, so that's what he sticks with now.
Cameron buys "teacher" candy. Nothing great, but nothing as bad as Chase, either. Three kinds of lollipop (Dum-dums, Blow-pops, and Tootsie-pops) and those chalky American smarties. She avoids the bad reviews that Chase tends to get, but nobody's telling the other kids to go ring her doorbell, either.
Foreman just puts out a big bowl of tiny Hershey bars with a sign saying "TAKE ONE AND LEAVE" and like... maybe an angry pumpkin drawing? Nobody invites him to their Halloween parties, which is fine because he's staying in and watching old Dracula movies.

20 questions for fic writers
Tagged by @piratefalls! Yay, wasting time - I've been doing so much of that today and thank you for giving me another way to! (Seriously, I would've just been watching more Youtube compilations without you.) That's probably why these answers are so long. Procrastination? Wellllll don't mind if I do!
How many works do you have on ao3? 154
What's your total ao3 word count?
1,280,205
What fandoms do you write for?
Primarily Teen Wolf and Harry Potter. HP was my original homeslice and I kind of sharpened my teeth on fic-writing in general there, found what I liked and didn't like, how to engage with fandom, what I found attractive and what turned me off (for characters and plot beats), honed my craft and made my mistakes there and then with the advent of AO3 and the finding of Teen Wolf, I feel like I blossomed and built a home and am hopefully making fewer oopsiedoosles. Though I have also written a fic or so for: Hannibal, The Meg, Mr. Robot, X-Men, Star Trek, and Breaking Bad.
Top five fics by kudos:
There's Monsters at Home, Sterek, Teen Wolf. (15,285)
Time to Eternity, Drarry, Harry Potter. (8,416)
Option C) Some Bad Guys are Werewolves, but Not All Werewolves are Bad Guys, Sterek, Teen Wolf. (7,759)
Of Bananas, Babies and Buzzkills, Sterek, Teen Wolf. (5,134)
Instructions for Dancing, Sterek, Teen Wolf. (5,099)
Do you respond to comments?
Not anymore. Occasionally one that asks a direct question I'll answer, if that answer isn't already somewhere on or in the fic.
Though the last one I answered was someone who didn't read my tags or notes, telling me I didn't warn for something that was in the tags and notes, and I was so polite, like, "How can I make this clearer?" instead of saying, "#!@%^&$@$@#^$%&$^&^&$%^@#$%" like I fucking wanted to and they then said: "Oh yeah, I didn't read any of that, guess you don't need to change anything." Which was exactly what I expected would happen and I took the time to answer because I want more than anything to teach that person a lesson, even though I am absolutely certain they learned nothing from the interaction. But I tried, I did my part, and I wasn't even an asshole about it. (Please, please, please, the amount of times I've been told in the snarkiest damn fashion to tag for something that is already fucking tagged...... like, how do I have to say: read the tags before snidely chastising me for what isn't in them?? And it's not like.... I used different language or anything, they will ask me to tag for the EXACT DAMN TAG already on the fic. My collection of these comments is genuinely getting out of hand.)
And there is one I kind of want to answer that I got in the last month or so because it's one of the nicest and most vulnerable things I've ever been told but there aren't enough letters, or strong enough ones, or big enough ones to hold all the gratitude and care that wants to pour into them so I just... haven't.
What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Hrm, I think these are just the most obvious of those and if I actually had to sit with this and go through my catalogue of fic, I would come up with a way more off-center answer because the angst is much subtler but harder hitting but that sounds like it would take brain power and, wow, is it that late already *coughs*
Either I Smoke My Friends Down to the Filter or But the Mess Prevails. I think maybe the latter because it's kind of triumphant in ISMFDttF, Stiles stands up for himself, but in BtMP they both want to be together but it's just another way for Derek to punish himself if they are.
What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Similar caveat to the one above as I'm not really focusing on ending (because more brain power) as much as just happy overall. Either [Hilary Duff Lyric Redacted] or Instructions for Dancing - they are both just fluff bombs almost entirely from start to finish.
Do you get hate on fics?
Mostly no. There's one fic that I have comments turned off on (THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS FUNCTION, AO3, 10000000% THIS FIC WOULD NOT STILL EXIST IF NOT FOR YOU) because people would yell things at me I already explicitly stated I agreed with? Like I wrote a fic for a fest (back when I wrote in a lot fests, lol), it was a dark prompt and I can't remember if the prompter wanted a happy ending or if it was a stipulation of the fest that it couldn't end badly but it's a dark prompt so while I could get the two characters to the point of co-parenting, I did not get them back together. And the comments I mainly got were: how dare you get them the fuck back together? To which I was like: um, I didn't, also if I was forced to keep going with this fic, this character would end up with this one instead. And then I got a deluge of comments that were like: how dare you get them back together!? And for a while, I explained that you read into it, which is understandable as - to satisfy whomever's requirement - it is an impression I wanted you to walk away with, but as you'll notice at no point are they back together or romantically involved again, they're in the same room and have reached a ceasefire, that's it. And that's as friendly as I see that relationship getting, and no one read any of that and kept yelling at me for the same reason and mentally I was like: fuck all of you, either the fic goes or I do so I turned off the comments so I wouldn't delete it. I find since commenting is off (or "hidden" rather, I can still see it and have the option to approve or nuke it), people have to really engage with a) what I've already replied before and b) whether or not it's worth it to leave a review that will literally only be seen by me. Suddenly everyone has reading comprehension and no one is just yelling to yell because the only one you're engaging with is *jazz hands* me, and I am obviously not the audience for that.
Do you write smut?
Yep!
Craziest crossover:
I have a Hunger Games/TW one that is one of two unfinished fics on AO3 because every time I even think about it, it intimidates me. And since I don't read crossovers, I have no idea how you're supposed to do them or how much of the other IP you can take on without it seeming like you've just rewritten with different characters or how much you should change when everyone knows what you're working from anyway - it's all a mystery to me and I am flummoxed by it.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
People post my old HP shit that no longer exists on the internet to Wattpad quite a bit and I am not savvy enough to figure out how to get it down. The few times I've contacted people who posted it under my name to take it down, instead just remove my name and fully pretend it's theirs. On some, I've found the people on LJ who have saved the fic in question and are giving it out and quietly asked them to stop because they were ending up as stolen fic on Wattpad.
Have you ever had a fic translated?
Yes, many!
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Em and I have started one but never finished - it's me, I'm Mr. Ambrose: "I start, I don't finish things."
All time favorite ship?
I think it's Stiles and Derek, man??? I don't know, I have a lot of niche ones too that I feel like if there were more content/interest, they would be it but there isn't sooooo....
What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
That THG/TW fic - it scares me so much. Like, who was that confident girl who didn't understand things at all and was like: yeah, that's fine? Don't know her. PvW - I have a lot written in the future and for the next chapter, plus an outline, it's just a matter of getting my attention to stay on it and I have the next chapter of WDHGsGA written and an outline for the next two, I just don't want to post it until it's totally finished so I don't have to worry about losing the atmosphere/tone again and, again, I just have to get my focus back to it but the chances of me letting that writing go totally down the drain? Unlikely.
What are your writing strengths?
Um, I think I have a good understanding of how humans work. I think writing is definitely made a lot easier when you have a handle on the psychology and a gut sense for people. It's not hard to craft fake scenarios when you have a pretty decent understanding of how people would react in them.
What are your writing weaknesses?
Grammar-wise, commas throw me completely. I have no idea where they're supposed to go and I do my best, okay?! I really only got Florida public school education on this and it was: wherever you feel like you should have one, do that.
More generally, I also feel like I don't have the same needs to satisfy as a large percentage of readers - I need a relationship at the core of a fic to feel significant and weighty to want to write a story about it, but that doesn't mean it needs to survive to the end of said fic or that characters need to hit certain relationship milestones for it to feel worthwhile to me. I think this sometimes leads me to endings that some people feel are unsatisfying because I got what I needed but maybe some readers didn't?
Thoughts on dialogue in another language?
Totally neutral. Doesn't bother or thrill me to any extent.
First fandom you wrote in?
Harry Potter.
Favorite fic you've written?
Favorite? That's hard. I'm, as mentioned, super shitty at finishing things so the fact that TMaH is completed - even without going into any of its content (all of which is made to order, absolutely my favorite stuff) - makes it a top contender.
I also still really love A Fine Foray into Fashionable Fellatio, the last Harry Potter fic I wrote, which was Draco/Ron. I love that to kick my brain into gear, I would start mentally painting the scenes, from oranges and reds to beiges and cool winter blues - I don't know I've ever used color so much in anything. It hasn't worked since and I think it's because - having been away from those characters and that fandom for so long - I had such a crystal clear image of them and because Draco, especially, was so different from how he's usually pictured in fic/fanart (curly-haired, absolutely swank as fuck Muggle style) that the lines were so defined it was easy to paint within them.
And I think my favorite writing piece right now is He Speaks in Petals. It's such a short fic and I reread it in the last year or so and it's so much more lyrical than I remember. I knew that was what I was going for and I did not think I managed it but it's got some really soft, kind whimsy to it that I like a lot and find very calming and reaffirming.
No pressure tagging @kikiroo, @rosieposiepuddingnpie, @literaryoblivion, @yodas-yo-yo, @clotpolesonly, @callunavulgari, @andavs, @i-sveikata, @alocalband !

Sk8qing 👀 tell me more pls 👀
That one is absolutely the matchablossom + fengqing fic that I threatened to write last year and someday I will finish it, but here's an excerpt in the meantime:
...
“—read the fucking reviews on the fucking internet, you’d see the fucking comment section said that other place is shit, so get the fuck inside before I throw you back in the ocean,” one of the tourists who enters is saying. 
There’s two of them, dead equal in height, expression, and choice of black clothes, and maybe also in the broadness of their shoulders. Not that Kaoru is especially attuned to that; Kojiro’s are wider anyway. (That, too, is a detail that Kaoru is not attuned to. He’s simply aware. He notices things. His glasses prescription is perfect, thank you.) 
Next to him, Kojiro stands up from his seat at his own bar, jolting into action as he goes to grab a set of menus and play the good host. “Hey, there. Welcome.” 
The non-swearing man of the pair, whose arms are folded in front of his chest and whose dark eyes have returned from their dramatic backwards roll, is the first to respond in a thin and sort of sneering voice. “I apologize for my coworker. He’s… unused to the language.” 
“Fuck off,” his friend returns. “I’ve known it longer than you, so I’ll swear as much as I fucking want. Listen, uh—we just want a table and some pasta.” 
Kaoru watches as Kojiro bites the inside of his cheek, evidently because he finds something amusing about the pair’s bickering. Foul language aside, it’s not hard to guess why he’d find it funny enough to flash his raised eyebrows and a thumbs up at Kaoru after showing them to their table. 
Kaoru leans in conspiratorially over the bar as Kojiro goes to prepare their drinks. “Do you think they…?” 
Kojiro narrows his eyes as he begins to twist a corkscrew into a bottle of pinot gris. His voice is carefully low. “You’re going to have to be more specific, you gossipy old hag. Are we talking about fucking or skateboarding?” 
“Do you know anything else?” Kaoru wrinkles his nose, a gesture that makes his glasses rise and fall in a tiny movement across his face. 
“Cooking,” Kojiro adds after a second’s consideration. “But that didn’t seem to fit here.”

(@sinnerxroulette​)( Byron to Paolo) ✉ - push my muse back down when they try to get out of bed
Manhandling symbol starters
Tumblr media
He had been keeping watch over Byron after the attack that left many gone, but Byron was a few of the surviving ones, having taken care of Paolo himself as he had decided to not let them die. A soft spot perhaps as he’d hoped never to see someone like them in the business, he felt they would have been more fitting in another place than in the mob.
“Stay down Byron, you’re not able to get back to work, not with your injuries.” His hand was gentler than normal as he pressed them back against the bed, now starting to look them over as they were awake. “Got you patched up, but you took a beating... How do you feel?”
