#mix of one-shots / unfinished and finished fics

Top Ten (Or So): Bakugou Fanfics

I’m a multipshipper–especially, for some reason, when it comes to Bakugou from My Hero Academia. I just love to see him put in such an awkward and completely-out-of-his-comfort-zone situation like Romance.

So without further ado, here are fanfiction recommendations arranged by Bakugou couple:

(Edit: I added a reading break, because this was a very long post to scroll through on my mobile.)

Bakugou/Iida: Breakneck Speed by chiropterology. This is the fic that made me make this list. Because I never, ever would have considered BakuIida as a ship if I hadn’t read this fic. I thought it would be cool to help others discover the delight of a previously unconsidered ship, and decided to make this list. The story is unfinished, and looks like it never will be finished (the author hasn’t been active at all in more than two years), but for me it was worth it for how hilarious and awesome it was.

Bakugou/Momo: My favourite fic with these two isn’t romantic at all, but still has great interactions between the two of them. I’m not gonna write the whole fic name because it’s extremely long, but it’s You know that thing where an orchestra swaps instruments…? by Sif.

There’s not that many great fics that are romantic out there for this pairing, and the one I like best I actually put in the Poly section below (“Love like a common cold”). But Leaf Water by smol_bird is a sweet little one-shot for these two, and I liked it quite a lot.

Bakugou/Ochako: I used to be into this ship a lot, but not so much anymore. It makes it difficult to recommend fics properly, because I don’t reread them anymore. That said, there is one Kacchako fic I still read whenever it updates, and that’s Seeing Double by knifekirby. This is one of the best (*the* best?) fantasy AU I’ve read (but mixed with the original MHA world! And yes, at one point you get two Bakugous at once). The world building is fantastic, barbarian Bakugou is epic, and the dragons are so awesome. It’s unfinished, but updates keep coming after long breaks, so there’s lots of hope.

A runner up could be A Different Perspective by House_of_Pixels. I quite like mind-sharing and soul-bond type fics, and this is a really cool one of that genre.

Bakugou/Deku: I have the opposite problem as with Ochako here. I’m a big bakudeku shipper, and I’ve read so many and have so many favourites depending on my mood that it’s hard to pick only a couple to recommend. But still, if I had to pick one, I think I’d go with (may the bridges i have burned) light my way back home by Chrome. It’s slow burn (my favourite), and the romance is subtle and difficult. Quite beautiful, in my opinion. It’s unfinished, and I had thought it was going to remain so forever, but it recently updated after a long, long break this year, so there’s hope!

For a one-shot (and thus finished) fic, try Do Not Disturb by surveycorpsjean. I’m a manga reader, and there have been so many developments between Bakugou and Midoriya recently, but the fics haven’t caught up. This story takes place after Ch. 322, and Katsuki is SO in character–caring for Izuku in the way he does in recent manga chapters, while still retaining all his amazing strength and gruffness.

And finally, a runner up: for a long and finished fic that I don’t think is getting nearly enough love, try zero-sum game by roadtripwithlucifer. It’s dark and angsty and adult and there’s lots of sex (one of the tags is “Sex as a Coping Mechanism”), but it’s fantastically written, and man do you get all the feels with this one.

Bakugou/Todoroki: I tend not to seek out todobaku, but will enjoy it if it’s in the bookmarks or works of an author I really like. So I’m not aware of the full breadth of options for this pairing, but there are a few I’ve found that I really enjoy. cruel to be kind by shaekspeares would be the first one I’d recommend. It’s a very long, slow-burn one-shot, and the first section is devoted to Bakugou struggling with PTSD (something I personally really like reading fics about) and has almost no Todoroki at all (an indication of its slow-burn, and a point in its favour for me).

Another would be and even the cake is in tiers by supercrunch, which I also mention in the poly section below. It has multiple endings, one of which is todobaku, and it’s one of the funniest fics on this list.

And finally, as a runner up, I have to recommend A Real Fucking Problem by Ellessey. It has, um… a LOT of masturbation, lol. I read fanfiction more for the romance than the sex (not through lack of horniness, but lack of interest in written word to deal with horniness). But this fic has such good characterization for Bakugou, and is so, so funny, that I don’t even mind the mammoth amounts of sexual content.

Bakugou/Froppy: All the Same Broken Parts by Seeress. There’s not many fics for this ship–it’s quite a rarepair. But I happened on this one, and I'm very glad. It’s so sad (though happy in the end), but I found it quite lovely and excellently written.

Bakugou/Camie: The Freaky Friday sitch! by orphan_account. Like with Momo, my favourite fic with these two isn’t romantic, but it’s hilarious, and these two are a fantastic duo. Bodyswapped Camie in Bakugou’s body is just *chef’s kiss*.

For a runner up that is romantic, you could try our friendship goes beyond your average kind of bond (but not because we’re gay) by wonhaebunny. I could actually see it happening something like this in canon, plus there’s a lovely bit of Bakugou & Kirishima friendship on the side.

Bakugou/Kaminari: My favourite BakuKami is actually in a bakudeku fic, Permanent Ink by Maxime. Fortunately, the little bit of BakuKami in that fic was so delightful, that they wrote another pure BakuKami fic, Tango for Two, Electric Boogaloo.

Bakugou/Shinsou: letting it linger by Ramabear. Nosy classmates, early-morning Shinsou staring, demi-sexual Bakugou (my favourite kind of Bakugou). It’s super cute and I really enjoyed it.

Polyamorous: Love like a common cold by supercrunch. My two favourite Bakugou ships, BakuDeku and BakuMomo, with a side splash of Todoroki. It’s a fantastic and very funny bodyswapping fic that you should definitely try out. The same author also wrote and even the cake is in tiers, which has an ending with todobakudeku, and is hilarious.

Gen: I’m always on the lookout for good Gen Bakugou fics, but I find it surprisingly hard to find ones I like. Here’s a couple I really loved:

A Little Demonstration by AnonymousTwit. Bakugou’s epic fights are one of my favourite parts of his character, and this gets at that glorious feeling exactly. It’s like the Joint Training Arc, but *more epic*.

Social Media: 101 by WindsChild8178. If you’re ok with Mistuki being abusive and a whole lot of angst and PTSD for Bakugou, then you really should try this fic. WindsChild is a fantastic writer, and this is one of the few fics that I remember vividly no matter how far between updates. It’s unfinished, but WindsChild puts a lot of work into each chapter, so it tends to be a long time between updates. I still have lots of hope it will be finished.

Note on Bakugou/Jirou: I love this ship, it’s probably in my top 3 Bakugou ships, but I haven’t yet found any fics that really, really stand out–enough to put them on this list, at least. Feel free to recommend one!

Note on Bakugou/Kirishima: My shipping is a mystery even to me, and it always has been. Why do I not like KiriBaku when I like almost every other Bakugou ship under the sun? I have no frickin clue. I have no rational reasons against it–it’s cute and sweet and there’s more canon moments with them than almost anyone else besides Deku. I do not blame anyone for liking this couple, I just happen not to myself, so I have no recs. If you really like kiribaku, feel free to reply with some recs of your own. :)

[slytherin-paramour]

Ok. So because I'm never going to finish any of these fics, I thought I'd just post what I have as a mix of drabbles. Some of them I can't even remember what they were going to be, lol. Very unfinished, but I thought I'd better get them out there before I dissappear.

Only now realising that most of them are Garreth based 😏

~~~~~~~~~♡♡~~~~~~~♡♡~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Quidditch Garreth Weasley x MC

The whole stadium erupted into a cacophony of wild cheers and screams as the quaffle was absolutely smashed through the centre hoop at the Ravenclaw side of the pitch. The blue and silver teams keeper had stood no chance at saving that one, your best friends speed and skill as a chaser making it impossible. Garreth manoeuvred his Ember broom back to the centre of the pitch, fist punching the air as he basked in the adoration from the crowds.

A green speck among a sea of red, you stood as well, cheering and waving, hoping that he might glance your way and know that you were there supporting him.

The roaring crowd began to simmer, and Natty pulled you back down to sit beside her. You did so, throat feeling a bit hoarse from overuse, but you couldn't keep the grin from your face as your eyes followed your red-haired friend, watching the team get back into position.

It was the last game of the seventh year season, and Gryffindor was leading 90 to 70. Close. Of all the points scored, it was Garreth who'd contributed the most, scoring six out of nine goals in one of the most spectacular displays of chasing that you'd witnessed in a long while. He'd been a blur of crimson and gold as he jetted across the pitch, determined to bring glory to his house before the end of his final year.

Your eyes softened as you watched him high-five a fellow chaser, grinning like a madman. Over the last month, you'd come to the terrifying realisation that you had feelings for Garreth that extended beyond the realms of a normal best friend relationship. You were in love with him. Plain and simple. The problem therein was that you absolutely, undoubtedly, did not have the courage to admit said feelings to the Gryffindor. The very idea of such a thing seemed inconceivable.

Natty's arm suddenly wrapping itself around your shoulder dragged your thoughts back to the present, and your attention returned to the game. The crowd around you were up on their feet, screaming and whistling and clapping madly, friends jumping onto each other and shaking with pure delight.

You shot out of your seat, Natty right beside you with her arms in the air, waving her little lion flag wildly.

Vampire AU- Garreth x MC TW Mentions of blood.

The screaming that permeated the room not minute's ago had reduced to pained whimpers as the blonde woman became weaker, her body hanging limply in the large arms of a lithe figure with crimson red hair. His face was pressed into the crook of her neck, holding her tightly against his solid form. In the corner of the dimly lit room, another figure stood motionless, hands in his pockets and trying to look anywhere but the spectacle that was occurring before him.

The music from the club could be heard reverberating around the room, muffled by the thick, fabric lined walls that decorated the place.

The red head lifted his face from the woman's neck with a satisfied groan, thick droplets of blood coating his smirking lips as his sharp blue eyes honed onto the other man in the room. His tongue darted out to lick away the remnants that lingered there, grinning as he did so.

"Fancy a taste, brother? She's still beating. It's not the best I've tasted but sufficient enough."

The other man, who also had firey coloured locks, rolled his eyes but stepped out of the shadows and took tentative steps towards him. His gaze flickered from his brother's and down to the bruised skin of the young woman who lay silently before him. He eyed the bleeding holes that decorated her neck, watching as a stray droplet of blood meandered down to her collar bone. He closed his eyes, the sweet scent emanating from the woman beckoning at something primal and ancient deep within him. His mouth became dry and parched, and he felt the familiar feeling of his fangs elongating against his tongue. He took a shaking inhale, trying and failing to temper his inner demon. His brother laughed from below him.

"There he is! Come now, Garreth, you haven't got much time." The man cradled the woman, angling her head to fully expose her abused throat to his brother.

Garreth stepped closer and dropped to his knees before his brother, reaching a hand out to brush away a sticky strand of hair from the womans neck, once golden and now stained crimson. His pupils dilated, and his ordinarily verdant hued irises melted into a deep scarlet. His senses were completely overcome by the scent of blood and the need to feed, and his fangs physically throbbed with pain.

Garreth Weasley- Hot

"There you go, you greedy little thing. It's a good job that you're so adorable, Archibald other wise you'd be getting the same rations as the others!" You ran your finger gently over the strikingly blue feathers of the little Jobberknoll, who sat on his perch, happily pecking away at the overly-filled bowl of beast nuggets beside him. The little bird gave you a chirp of appreciation as you flipped the latch closed on his large, golden aviary cage.

At the tender age of eighteen, not three months after you'd graduated from Hogwarts, Ellie Peck had approached you to see whether or not you'd be interested in joining the business and taking over the store for a while. The older woman was planning an excursion to South America, where she would get to work with rare beasts that could only be found there. With zero plans as to what you wanted to do, you pretty much jumped at the opportunity. Sebastian had been adamant that you join him on the Aurors recruitment program, but you had been reluctant. Tired of conflict and craving a bit of normality.

You strode over to the counter, dipping around it to reach for a little set of keys before making your way to the entrance of the shop. You took your forest green coat from its hook and wrapped it around your shoulders as you stepped out onto the cobbled street. With a quick turn of the key and a double check of the handle, you turned on your heel and made your way down to the heart of Hogsmeade.

Instead of going straight to your little rented room in Upper Hogsfield, you quite fancied a cheeky butterbeer this evening, and so merrily made your way to The Three Broomsticks, your boots clacking against the cobbles under your feet.

Upon entering the familiar old pub, you smiled, taking a deep inhale of the sweet scent of butterbeer and sharp tang of various liquors that filled the place. Taking a seat at the bar, you looked at the person behind the bar who had their back turned to you, wiping down one of the wooden shelves. You'd know her anywhere. "Good evening, Sirona."

The elder witch turned and gave you a huge grin upon realising that it was you. "Mc! How lovely to see you! Have you come alone or are you waiting for that handsome boyfriend of yours?"

She waved her wand towards the huge keg of butterbeer that sat behind the bar, a goblet of the delicious beverage filling up and moving to hover in front of you. You took the handle gratefully and took a big drink of the refreshing liquid, shifting uncomfortably on your seat at Sironas words.

"Oh, we... we actually aren't a couple anymore, Sirona. So it's just me all on my lonesome tonight, I'm afraid!"

Professor Garreth

Your back met one of the wooden supports that held up the storage area of the astronomy tower, the impact causing particles of dust to scatter about you in a wild flurry. Before you had a chance to think, a mouth was pressed firmly against yours, tongue already pushing past your lips to entangle itself with your own in a display of wild dominance. You hesitated for a moment, eyes glancing around the empty room and hands poised on his chest to push him away should the need arise in a given second. Sawyer Greenwood didn't seem to be thinking along the same lines as you, however. He gripped tightly at your hips, pulling you firmly against him as he continued to invade your mouth.

A small whimper fell from your lips as you felt your Slytherin boyfriend's thumb slip into the waistband of your skirt and push the fabric down an inch. You pulled your face away from his in a panic, grabbing his wrist and halting his advances.

"Sawyer... wait!" The platinum haired boy made a disgruntled sound but moved his mouth to your neck, sucking and kissing his way down in a hurry. You let out a gasp at a feeling that should probably feel more pleasurable than it did, were you not feeling exceedingly uncomfortable with the thought of being discovered in such an uncompromising state.

"I really...nn..don't think that..this is the right place to be doing this..haa!" Still ignoring your pleas, he bit down on your collarbone, a smirk erupting on his features. His fingers continued to rub rough circles over your hip bone, determined to continue on their journey south.

Millie Weasley

You rushed into the Great Hall, very nearly tripping over your own feet in the process, hurrying towards your house table that was swathed in various hues of verdant. The faculty always went overboard with the four founders branding at the yearly Sorting Ceremony, the Slytherin Serpent adorning the table cloth and even the goblets and cutlery that littered the long benches. You slotted yourself down in-between Sebastian and Ominis, taking a few much needed deep breaths.

"Why is it always YOU barging in here last? You've certainly made it a habit of yours, haven't you? You know you can't keep upstaging the poor little first years." The chestnut haired boy nudged your shoulder with a smirk, and from your other side, you could hear Ominis chuckling in amusement. You shoved his arm playfully and ran a hand through your hair, attempting to tame the unruly mess that it had become. The corner of your lips curled up regardless.

"Oh, be quiet and drink your pumpkin juice."

You turned your attention to your fair haired friend to your right, reaching out to give his hand a little squeeze.

"Good evening, Ominis. I do hope that you haven't had to endure Sebastians' hilarious quips for too long?"

Ominis laughed then, his slender fingers thrumming atop the wood as he took in the cacophony of noise that echoed all around the hall.

"Fortunately, Sebastian and I arrived separately. Would you believe that the Hogwarts Express was running on a late schedule this year? I honestly didn't believe it possible, but here we are."

Sebastian looked at his friends with fake indignation, placing a hand over his heart dramatically. "You wound me, Ominis. I think I shall have to offer our MC here the number one friend slot in your stead!"

Your head snapped in his direction, a challenging glint in your eyes. "I wasn't already number one?"

Your freckled friend simply grinned and ruffled your hair affectionately. "Absolutely not. Your wild ways are far too difficult to deal with on a daily basis! And besides, I think we both know exactly who YOUR number one has been for a while. Make sure to give my best to your favourite lion for me, won't you?" Sebastian gave you a sly smile, his gaze flickering to the crimson decked Gryffindor table across the way.

You followed his line of sight, a light flush adorning your cheeks as your eyes scoured the red and gold benches, searching for your target. Your heart raced. There he was. Sitting between Natty and Leander. He appeared to be in an animated debate of sorts with Lucan Brattleby, who sat on the opposite side of the table, his firey hair just as flyaway and wild as you remembered it. Garreth was laughing heartily at something, and it warmed you to your soul, your gaze softening as you stared. Your mischievous Gryffindor with a heart of gold.

Garreth was motioning into the air above his head, spreading his arms dramatically as he described what was obviously a rather large explosion. You shook your head a little at the display, holding in a laugh. It was so very him that it felt endearing. And looking at him now, it suddenly hit you that he'd changed a bit over the summer. His skin seemed a tad darker, and he looked broarder than usual, the curve of his jaw just a tiny bit sharper.

As if the red head could sense he was being watched, his green eyes suddenly met your own, shining with affection from where he sat amongst his housemates. A cheeky wink was sent your way, and you rolled your eyes, giving him a little wave.

A sharp tap to the top of your head snapped you out of your little bubble of Garreth related thoughts. "Ow! What in Mer...Imelda! What was that for?" You rubbed at the sore spot on your skull, glaring at the scottish witch as she withdrew her wand and re-pocketed it with a smirk. "I've been TRYING to talk to you for the last few minutes, you absolute moonmind. If you could spare us the sickening lovey dovey face for a moment, that would be fan-bloody-tastic."

You frowned at the witch and rolled your eyes, trying to nonchalantly brush off the impending flush of heat to your face. It didn't help that you could practically feel Sebastians shit eating smirk boring in to you from your right. You ignored them all, grabbing a silver goblet from the set-up, and pulled out your pale wand, muttering aguamenti. The cup filled speedily, and you brought it to your lips for a much-needed gulp of fresh water. You raised your eyes to meet Imeldas dark ones. Sebastian had apparently quickly lost interest in your embarrassment, and he and Ominis were now engaged in a conversation that revolved around Herbology and whether or not they would be taking the subject at NEWT level.

"So why did you require my attention, Mel? It had better be worth the bump on my forehead, you evil little dugbog." You leaned backwards in your seat and glared at your best girl friend, trying not to smirk at the look of indignation at being compared to the slimy creatures that lurked in the marshland She sat down and folded her arms across her chest, hitting you with a hard look that you knew meant that she meant business. You probably could have guessed what she wanted to talk about.

"Quidditch. Black has FINALLY lifted the bloody ban. You'd better well be trying out for the Slytherin team this year. As much as it pains me to say it, and it does, you're a damned brilliant flyer, MC, and the team will flourish if you're on it." You relented in your smirking, a grateful smile replacing it as you absorbed your feisty friends compliment. You thought about her demand, and excitement flooded through your veins. Of course, you wanted to try out for the team. Ever since you first rode on a broom a couple of years prior, you knew that flying was in your blood. The way that Imelda always spoke with an intense passion for the sport had always made you wish that you could try Quidditch one day.

You felt the sudden jab of Sebastians irritating elbow into your ribs before his arm came to rest casually around your shoulder, apparently deciding to grace your conversation with his presence once more. "Of course she's going to try out! She'd be an idiot not to, make a hell of a beater I'd wager, an absolute brute!"

You shouldered him in the chest with a scowl, shoving his lithe arm away from you. "Hey! Watch it Sallow, or you might just become the next target for my 'brutish' ways." Ominis chuckled from your left, enjoying his friends playful banter. "Oh please, please keep aggrivating her, Sebastian. I'm sure we'd all love to see you suffer the repercussions."

You plastered your smirk back onto your face at the blind wizard's words before returning your attention to Imelda, intent on messing with the outspoken witch a little. "Is this you finally admitting that I'm the better flyer, Mel? That Slytherin would simply be a lost cause without my impeccable broom skills?"

Imelda scoffed, whipping her long, dark ponytail over her shoulder. "MC, everybody and their house elves know that I'm the best flyer this school has to offer. You can't goad me, Hero of Hogwarts. You're losing your touch!"

Once a coward, always a coward PT.2

Ominis Gaunt x MC

Ominis did not, in fact, gift you with his understanding. Like a petulant child, he'd refused to speak with you for the rest of the morning, opting to retire to your bedroom and sleep. Not that you particularly cared at this moment in time. You knew that you hadn't committed any wrongdoing, and you weren't about to succumb to your husbands stubborn attitude. You channelled your anger into some rigorous cleaning, muggle style, not caring in the slightest that you were being quite loud about it. Maybe it was petty of you, but Ominis had been twice as petty earlier, in your opinion.

In the late afternoon, you cooked yourself a quick lunch consisting of boiled vegetables and some paprika marinated chicken pieces. Still feeling resentful, you plated up a small portion for Ominis. He was still your husband, after all, even if he was an obstinate moonmind.

You placed his covered food on top of your small kitchen stove before taking a few steps into the hallway and making your way up the stairs to your bedroom to get changed for the evening.

Your husband still lay silent under the bed covers, you noted as your eyes traced over the bed. A pang of sadness went through you. You really did hate arguing with him, and you absolutely hated the fact that you hadn't spoken to him for pretty much twenty-four hours now. You sighed and opened the wardrobe door quietly, your attire for the evening already pressed and ready for you to slip into. A simple white button-up shirt and an ankle length sage green skirt.

You had just unbuttoned your trousers and slid them away from your legs when you heard a voice coming from behind you.

"You're going through with this then. Do you still refuse to see sense?" You turned sharply, watching with eyes narrowed as Ominis pushed himself up into a sitting position. The covers slipped away from him, revealing his pale, toned torso in the process. You licked your lips at the sight and leaned back against the bedroom wall, arms crossing at your chest.

"I'm not even going to dignify that comment with a response. I'm leaving soon, I'll be back before midnight." You turned to the wardrobe and moved to grab for your skirt. Before your fingers could wrap around the fabric, Ominis had climbed out of bed and strode to stand behind you.

One of his hands gripped you tightly at the hip, and the other snaked up to hold the base of your throat. You gasped at the feeling, his hard chest pressing against your back as he restrained you possessively. Against your better judgement, heat curled through your abdomen and dripped down to your core. His lips ghosted over the sensitive skin behind your ear, his hot breath causing you to shiver.

"Stay with me..." His voice reverberated deeply before you felt the light pull of teeth against your neck. His hand tightened around your throat at the same time you felt his fingers dip under the seam of your underwear, brushing tantalisingly over the junction of your thigh.

WIP Wednesday/Thursday

I was tagged by @pedroshotwifey and @theywhowriteandknowthings ❤️ ❤️

It was hard to decide which two WIPs I was going to do snippets of because I have so many. 👀 If I mention starting any more series and not just one shots, smack me. I should not have 11, I kid you not, 11 ongoing series. I went through my masterlist thinking it was like 5-6. 🤨 I was very wrong. Like Geez.... I gotta finish something. 🫣

Anyway, snippet one - from chapter 2 of Roc & Doc not finished yet:

Your face hardens at your friend’s joke and you start nervously pressing your hands together. At least it wasn’t the trenchcoat one she likes to make, thank goodness. Tim looked back at the door and stood up, shaking his head. “Hey Kim. Just knew Doc would want to hear how the case turned out. I’m going to head out Doc. I’m going to go make sure Stevenson isn’t still working on the homicide from last week. He makes fun of my chicken scratch, but he types slow as hell for someone fifteen years younger than me. Good night Doc, don’t steal anymore pens. I know she’ll be your accomplice.” Rockford nods, gives you a smile and once at the doorway, cuts his eyes at Kira before leaving.  

Kim plops down across from you and snickers. “Did the famed detective get a bit pissed at me because I came between him and his dear Doc? For shame and I guess I did know you were taking his pens. To be fair, I did tell you to stop several times.” She playfully tapped her own hand as if she was being reprimanded. You sat back in your chair and shook your head. She’s been teasing you about this for as long as you had stolen that man’s pens well after. Tim didn’t tease you as much anymore, well sometimes when you got in the car and he asked to see your hands to make sure you didn’t remove anything from his glove box or console.

Snippet two is from a series I plan to start in March. It's for a Pedro character I only recently started writing for. 🥸 (Is included in the 11 series - that number still freaks me out. like that many unfinished ideas. 😭)

A moonbeam. It’s the first thing he thought of when he saw her. She was wearing a white nightgown - if he had to guess cotton with a thin robe about her shoulders that she decided to slip off. That’s a good choice, it’s a bit warm out tonight. Her hair is under a purple bonnet which she removes as well and sets it on top of the robe, both are on the back of her rocking chair. Black voluminous hair fell around her shoulders, it looked pillowy to the touch like the rest of its owner.  Her substantial legs carried her to a small table beside her where she lit a candle. The minimal light makes her face glow. He can make out full lips, round cheeks and bright eyes behind her glasses. She eases down into her rocking chair and pours herself a brown liquid that looks similar to his and orange juice maybe? Well she could be one for mixed drinks. He wonders why she would be up at this ungodly hour drinking? She couldn’t have similar demons to him could she? Maybe some unknown fears or known fears? Could she be separating herself from someone inside the home? 

I wonder which character it is? ☺️

Honorable mentions: Dave/Santi, Pero/Jack, Weddings 101 with Dieter, Jake Lockley fic, Santiago angst/fluff, Disco Dieter.

These aren't any less important, my motivation waxes and wanes, very often. 🤔

Interview With a Writer

I know I usually do Ewanverse or HotD, but I fell in love with this story. Thank you @bhxrdy for indulging me and answering my questions. 💜 As always, Interview With a Writer is my ongoing series of the talented souls on Tumblr and ao3, and their brilliant writing!

Dividers by @saradika

Name: bhxrdy

Story: timeless

Paring: modern Finan x original female character

Warnings: Explicit/18+, be mindful of chapter warnings!

So, when did you start writing?

I started really writing, like 10 years ago now - right into 2013. I had discovered and gotten very into (I'm shy to say) k-pop, and at the time, social media was new to me. I had joined a couple of forums here and there, but really got into the thick of it once I joined Twitter and Tumblr. It was also then - for the 1st time - that I found out about fanfiction, which was an unfamiliar concept to me.

Its a bit blurry, but I remember I started reading a few stories here and there about my fave group at the time and - I don't remember the specifics but - I had eventually started coming up with wild scenarios, small ideas here and there, that I wanted to put down on paper.

Writing in general was relatively new to me (a few years before, when I was in high school, I was writing "poems" and other notes in a massive emo-like notebook - all because of a boy of course), so the idea of creating something substantial, like the fics I had read so far, was a bit terrifying but also kind of exciting because I stumbled on something brand new to me and was dying to be part of it along with some new online friends I had made (which I unfortunately lost touch with over the years).

Within the span of 2013-2015, I wrote 28 stories (on a 3rd party site) - a mix of one shots and multi-chaptered fics, which includes 2 unfinished stories - which were left to die by 2017-2018. I had finished school and started working, which totally changed my routine. The lack of interactions in the fandom didn't help either as by then, it was pretty much dying from the band's moving on and eventually disbanding. The stories are still there, my account is still there, as I don't have the heart to take it down. I've spent so much time on them, and loved every genre I wrote. I either went fluffly fluff or super angst and dark, all of them fun to write.

After that I moved away from the fandom as well and just the k-pop scene in general. I took a hiatus from writing altogether too - the will of it had died so I mostly focused on editing. And then, I started back again in 2020, wrote a couple of stuff on Tumblr (for the 1st time) until I stopped again a few months later. The inspiration stopped and I just couldn't bring myself to write anymore. So I moved away.

And then this year, TLK happened and I just had the inspiration back on the tip of my fingers, just swirling in my brain and was dying to write it down, so I gave it another shot and wrote my first Finan fanfic. It was very rusty getting back into it after so long but I'm glad I did because I got to meet amazing people which I'm grateful for.

I have a tendency of daydreaming a lot, I can easily get lost it my own head. Finding out I could actually just write them down, liberating everything I held up and see them face to face vs. just thinking about them, became a whole new ball game.

Where did the plot for timeless come from?

It hit me out of nowhere and happened when I was re-watching The Originals (TVD spin off). I'm not sure how, but it physically/literally stopped me in my tracks (mind you I wasn't doing anything special, just going to the kitchen to get a snack) as if I was hit on the head with it, like, "Yes! omg! shit! this is it!!"

I immediately picked up my phone and started typing random thoughts and notes down for the story. It was very rough, just generalized ideas of what could happen. Some of those ideas did change trajectory from where they started, but I'm hoping they were good changes and worth the story telling 😊

Watching The Originals helped with the inspiration. I knew Finan was always meant to be cursed, I just had to figure out the best way to present it. I also drew inspiration from other witch shows like Charmed, A Discovery of Witches, and BTVS. I love anything related to the supernatural and witchcraft, so it was fun coming up with the initial layout of the story.

At the beginning, I debated if it should be a one-shot or multi-chapter based on how much I had come up with. I was 99% sure I would stick with the one-shot, but eventually the 1% took over and I just went from there...the lines took a life of their own.

Explain your interpretation of Finan. What drives him? Why is he the way he is in timeless?

I was mostly trying to stay true to how his character was built on the show and transport that in writing within the concept of the story (I'm sure I've strayed, but hopefully that's alright).

When we first meet Finan, he's infiltrated modern day life as if he was part of that world, always. Then he meets a woman on a random night and everything changes for him.

Thinking of it this way, the man has been by himself for a thousand years - the life he knew, his family, his friends - everything from his past has disappeared and he is all alone, and so he was just at this point in his existence where he was done with everything, partly discouraged from being immortal, partly begrudgingly accepting of his fate as a man who will never die.

But then he meets Rebecca, a woman who has no inkling whatsoever of who Finan is, i.e. their meet up was random passing of time in the(ir) universe. Once they meet, his life alters. She was the light at the end of a tunnel, she was a beacon of hope. Meeting her, befriending her - he found purpose again. He was ready to fight again, to live like a normal man again.

Throughout the story, I tried to focus on this aspect specifically - on the basis that he is hopeful to become a free man again. And though, there is conflict within himself, to the point he was ready to give up again, I'd like to think that Rebecca was simply someone he needed in his life. Not because of what she could do for him, but because of who she was, as a character, as a person to him. She put her life on hold for him and in return, the universe gave them something that everyone wants - to love and be loved and not be so alone in the world.

Finan, having been alone for a century, found his drive through Rebecca - through her presence, always standing by his side and fighting for him. Them falling in love was an added bonus.

Do you feel Rebecca/Bex complement Finan in this?

I would like to think that she does, because she gave him a new spark into his life, allowing him to feel truly alive again - which was something he had been deprived off since his original lifetime (i.e. since the TLK era).

With Bex's stubbornness driving him insane at times, I think it also helped him on the hope aspect - she was willing to go to the ends of the earth for him, for someone she had just met all because she wanted to make things right, to help him (a stranger, when they met) find peace. She wasn't reluctant about it nor did he even ask for help (he was the apprehensive/suspicious one). And I believe, at the end of the day, it all came down to how they felt about each other from the night they met. They unintentionally nurtured a connection they created until it became so immense, they ended up wearing it naturally, like a second skin.

Not only was she his anchor to the world of the living, Bex had become the part of him that died a long time ago. This makes me believe - in a some kind of weird way - that she was his soulmate. That, despite the heaviness of the curse, Finan was meant to cross path with her, that the(ir) universe gave him a break in the form of a kind-hearted and stubborn as a mule witch. A woman who would end up gifting him a second chance, and the opportunity to experience the good aspect of life again (as well as love).

Where did the dreams and the curse lore come from?

The dreams part of the story was inspired by The Originals, as there is the concept of the “other side” where non-resting souls are (the cemetery/graveyard scene description was inspired by the one they have on the show) - so I leveraged it and made it so Bex was forced into contact with another witch while sleeping instead of through a spell (as she had no reason to contact the dead while awake).

For the curse, I knew what I wanted out of it as it was already part of the original draft when I first came up with this story idea. I knew where it was taking me and how I would want it built - the reasoning behind it though was a bit if the tough part which I had also integrated into the storyline with Bex losing her shit over it.

Any chance of a sequel? Or do have anything else you are working on next?

So, unfortunately no sequel. But it does not mean I haven't thought of an epilogue - or kind of. Just random scenes with Bex of what life is after the ending that randomly play out in my head. I don't think I'll want to write them mostly because I want to keep the ending as is.

I'm working through a few other stories at the moment. The priority ones are for Osferth (a one-chaptered drabble for your 1k celebration, and a multi-chaptered fic which will also tap into the supernatural concept), which I am hoping to get started - officially - very soon!

I have some others dangling as well, which should eventually come soon as well - this includes Finan, Sihtric and Aemond.

Do you have a personal favorite story you'd like to share?

There are so many to choose from! We Were Something, Don't You Think? by Maggie (@inthedayswhenlandswerefew), as well as Comet Donati and Have You No Idea That You’re In Deep?

Some other favorites include Wolf-Heart by @gemini-mama, Crimes of Passion by @itbmojojoejo, Sanctuary by @st-eve-barnes, and Winterwood by @lonnson

There is also a myriad of Finan x Aisling (OFC) fics by @persephones-journey which are heart-wrenching and good.

And Fire in Her Eyes by @emilyhufflepufftlk is another amazing one for Finan fans.

Fic Writing Review 2023

thanks for the tags @kiwiana-writes @stereopticons 💚

Rules: Feel free to show whatever stats you have. Only want to show Ao3 stats? Rock on. Want to include some quantitative info instead of stats? Please do this. Want to change how yours is presented? Absolutely do that. Would rather eat glass than do this? Please don’t eat glass but don’t feel like you have to do this either.

Words and Fics

New fics on ao3: 12

Words published on ao3: 220,095

BONUS STAT 120,433 UNPUBLISHED words (holy fuck, I went to add this up because I was curious, but I was not prepared for this... No wonder I hate having all these WIPs hanging over my head right now. They are A LOT)

Fandoms: just RWRB

Most recent fic: "Please, I need you to." (also the shortest fic!)

Longest fic: Deep Blue, 76,031 words

Longest one shot: Love and War, 11,430

Top fics by kudos

(WELL, I wanted to do a mix of stats, but Deep Blue is my top fic in all the metrics--and we don't fuck with ratios in this house--so instead I'm doing by kudos)

Deep Blue (well, well, well. I love this baby so much)

Just Like That. (shocking outlier! It started as smutty crack in my mind!)

In His Wildest Dreams (love this with my whole entire heart)

Oxford Days (look here, kids! the things you can achieve with sleep deprivation and crazy hyperfocus!)

Tumbled Down and Tangled Up (with thanks to whoever it was who shared it on twitter that one time and led to me spending one very confused day--nine months after this fic was first published--watching all the ao3 emails coming in like, WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING)

Every single number on this list blows my mind.

Fandom/Fic events

Doing events is a new thing for me this year! I've just finished my @rwrbnygiftexchange fic and am super excited to put it out there (Jan 1st feels so far away!)

And I did a quick thing for Smutsgiving 2023

Just for fun

Most amusing stat: the fact that THIS has more kudos than actual words in it. Love you all 😘

Highest proportion of private bookmarks: just edging this, it's Happy NY! I was sure it would be In His Wildest Dreams lol. It only just lost out by 0.3%

Leader by POV: Alex, with 6 fics to his name. Then it's 3 for Henry and 3 in split POV, though Henry would lead this if I was doing it by word count lol

Things that moved me beyond words: everything Deep Blue related, but especially the comments (and I'd never done this before, but last week I sorted all fics in the RWRB tag by comments and there it was... on the first page 😱 *Of course almost half of those comments are from me, replying to people. Timely reminder of how all these metrics are not necessarily a true reflection of a work or a writer’s value). Anyway, whether it's people relating to Alex's confusion when working out his sexuality (hi 🙋‍♀️), or people who see themselves in Henry and his paralysing fear of being hurt again (hi again 🙋‍♀️), and everyone who dropped into the comments to commiserate about wanting to quit their jobs and fuck off to the coast to write full time (🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️), they all mean so much.

New Year's resolutions:

to finish a bunch of WIPs

to work on fewer things at once and not stress myself out by having a bunch of unfinished things

to crack on with my original writing

This post ran a lot longer than I was expecting! I'm not tagging anyone because I don't want anyone to feel pressured to share numbers and compare themselves to others. The last four months have been CRAZY in the RWRB fandom, and to be honest looking at numbers and stats is a surefire way to feel small or slow or just plain not enough when you start comparing yourself to others.

But if you feel proud of something you've done (the first thing you've ever written! the first fic you've ever shared! some sort of stat breakthrough! your first ao3 subscribers!), whatever it is, please share. And tag me! Doing all of this online stuff can be fun, but it can sometimes feel lonely too. The best thing about it is talking to people, whether it be in discord or ao3 comments or on tumblr posts and messages or getting tagged on WIP posts just because people think I might like to see what they're writing, or because they want to see what I'm working on.

Anyway, my point is: don't be lonely. Bang on that tag. 😉❤️

Now, who's going to teach me how to use code and shit so I can have a nice spreadsheet with all these stats on? I did it all by hand and now I need a nap.

Adrenaline Crush - Rosé x Female Reader, Amusement Park (unfinished) FLUFF

Author’s note: This is a fic that I started writing back in 2020. I never got around to finishing it and I don’t think I will so I’ve decided to just post what I have. If there’s enough interest, maybe I’ll continue! Enjoy.

—

It’s the end of your spring semester at university; final exams are over, dorm rooms have been cleared out, and summer vacation has officially begun, which means you and your friends would finally be able to set off on your road trip to your favorite amusement park. You’ve been anticipating this trip for weeks, planning out whose car you’d all be taking, who’d be driving, which coasters you’d hit first. To your despair, at the last second, your friend and seat partner had to back out to visit family she hadn’t seen in a while, leaving your group with an odd number of 3 instead of an even number of 4. She apologized profusely and insisted that you all still go since she knows you’ve been excited about this plan since it was first brought up. You all wished her and her family well and set off at 8am just as you planned.

—

“Are you sure, Y/N?” Jennie asked, “I don’t mind sitting alone for a couple rounds. You can sit with Lisa.”

It’s been about 2 hours since you’ve all arrived to the park. So far, you were able to knock out 3 rides and were currently on line waiting for the fourth. Unfortunately, the park had a lot more visitors than expected, causing the wait times to be around half an hour or longer.

Your eyes darted behind Jennie towards Lisa, her eyes pleading to you and her lips forming into a pout. Her facial expression was enough for you to understand what she was asking of you, “Say no. Please say no. I’ll die if you don’t. Say no. Say no. Say no.” Jennie may not mind, but Lisa surely would, considering her massive crush on the older girl. You also knew that, even though Jennie says she doesn’t mind, she definitely does deep down; she just doesn’t know it yet.

You gave Jennie a small smile and shook your head, “Nah, don’t worry about it, Jen. I’ll be fine.” You walked up and into one of the dividing sections as the next group of riders got into their seats, “Maybe I’ll be a solo rider again like last ride.”

The two girls were now situated in the section next to yours. Lisa hummed, sitting back on the railing, “Or maybe you’ll partner up with a cute girl.”

You rolled your eyes as the dispatcher counted down to 1 and sent the coaster off, blowing everyone’s hair in all directions. You combed a hand through yours to put it back in place and sighed, “With my luck so far, I doubt it.”

You’d much rather ride solo like the last round than press your luck partnering up with someone random. During your first ride, you got partnered up with a guy around your age who immediately tried hitting on you and was entirely too touchy. Luckily for you, Jennie and Lisa caught on to what was happening and turned around to glare at him until he took the hint and stopped. Your partner for the second ride was slightly better, but that wasn’t saying much. It was a kid in damp clothing who you assumed just got back from the connected waterpark. The hot sun and sweat mixed with the damp clothes caused a certain stench to emit from the kid, forcing you to hold your breath the entire time you waited for the ride to take off.

You looked over to your friends and watched as Jennie fixed her blown-out hair before helping Lisa with hers. You could see Lisa’s ears turn a bit red as Jennie tucked her hair behind them. Lisa smiled and thanked her as Jennie returned her smile. When they turned their attention back to you, you had an eyebrow raised and your arms crossed over your chest. Jennie looked away, clearly embarrassed that you saw their little interaction.

Lisa shot you a look. “What? Did you need help with your hair too?” she teased, trying to diffuse the awkward tension you just created. She grabbed your wrist and pulled you closer to her. As she moved her hand toward your face, you lightly pushed her off.

“Gross,” you said, sending her a disgusted look. You backed away from the railing separating you from the two and saw Jennie looking off into the distance, presumably watching the coaster to forget about her embarrassment. You started to feel a bit guilty and decided to help her move past it by asking, “What do you guys think Jisoo’s up to?”

You mentally let out a sigh of relief when Jennie turned back to you and shrugged, “I think she said she was going to have lunch with her family.”

You looked at the time on your phone lock screen and saw that it was indeed around lunchtime. “I’ll shoot her a text,” you said, while unlocking your phone.

“Tell her we miss her!” Lisa exclaimed.

Y/N: unnie :-( we miss you

Y/N: but rn i miss you most. i’m feeling like a third wheel with these two. TT

Y/N: how’s everything so far? how’s your family?

Jisoo: kekekeke i’m sorry y/n. i had a feeling that would happen.

Jisoo: are they being gross?

Jisoo: my family’s good! everyone’s healthy and doing well :) we’re heading to get some food now

Jisoo: have you guys eaten yet? make sure to eat!!!

Y/N: sickeningly sweet. makes me wanna vomit tbh

Y/N: i’m glad everyone’s well!! eat lots of good food

Y/N: we’ll eat soon too

Y/N: ah it’s our turn to ride now. talk to you later!

You sent off the last text right as the gates opened to let you in to find your seat. You sat yourself down in the farthest of the two seats, leaving the other open for easy access to anyone who may join you. You buckled yourself in and tightened the seatbelt around your waist. “Solo rider?” you heard the worker ask. You nodded in reply, which was all the response needed for them to proceed to push the safety bar down on you alone.

Jennie and Lisa turned around and smiled at you. “Hey, another solo ride,” Jennie noted. “Lucky you,” Lisa added, “You didn’t get a random.”

You gave them a small smile as they turned back around. “Yeah,” you sighed, slightly saddened by the thought of having to enjoy a ride alone again, “Lucky me.”

You shook your head to rid yourself of whatever loneliness you were feeling and hyped yourself up for the ride. You wouldn’t let a lack of a partner get you down. A solo ride was the better option when put up against being matched with someone random. When the dispatcher began counting down from 10, you reached your arms out toward the two in front of you, placing a hand on each of their shoulders.

“Let’s go!!!” you yelled out, shaking them back and forth. They laughed and shouted along with you as the dispatcher reached 1 and sent you off at a speed that stole the sound right out of your throat.

—

After getting off the last ride, Lisa suggested taking a break and grabbing some food to gain back some of the energy lost from walking far distances and waiting in long lines. You all ended up grabbing some burgers and fries and eating at an outdoors table, hiding from the sun underneath its umbrella top.

“We probably shouldn’t go on a rollercoaster yet,” Jennie advised, “Maybe something slower-paced.”

You hummed in agreement and opened up the park map to see what ride you could go on next. You spotted a haunted house ride not too far from where you currently were and pointed at it on the map, “How about this?” You tap Lisa to look at where you’re pointing. You might find her and Jennie’s sweet interactions to be vomit-inducing, but what kind of best friend would you be if you didn’t help Lisa out every now and then?

“A haunted house?” Lisa questioned, “You want to go on that?" She looked back up at you and saw you widen your eyes a bit, trying to signal to her your intentions. You nudged her leg under the table and gave a discrete nod toward Jennie who was busy looking at the map. She quirked an eyebrow, still confused as to what you were trying to tell her.

You rolled your eyes, “Jennie, what do you think? Want to go on it?” You looked down at the girl sitting across from you and next to Lisa, pursing her lips in thought.

“I don’t know,” she replied, sitting back up straight, “I scare kind of easily.”

“Lisa doesn’t,” you informed her with a smug smile, “You can grab onto her if you find it to be too much for you.”

Jennie’s cheeks grew pink as she blinked blankly at you before she nodded and simply said, “Okay.” Your suggestion and her response made Lisa blush a similar shade to hers.

You chuckled and nodded back, “Okay, that’s settled then. Let’s clean up and go.” All three of you got up, grabbed your garbage and threw it all out before heading off. —

Standing next in line for the haunted house, you started to feel the loneliness you’d felt during the last ride seep back in again. You were about to get on a ride that was infinitely better with a partner but a random partner on this ride would just be weird. You let out a sigh. Lisa looked over and noticed your lowered mood. She pouted and mouthed, “Are you okay?”

This made you genuinely smile and laugh to yourself. You nodded and mouthed back, “I’m okay.” You nodded your head toward Jennie, who was keeping herself occupied with her phone, and wiggled your eyebrows teasingly at Lisa. She shook her head, smiling now, and mouthed, “Shut up,” before adding, “Thank you.”

The last group of riders returned and got out of their seats as the gate in front of you opened up. Just as you did last time, you sat in the farthest of the two seats available to you, leaving the other open. As you buckled yourself in, a worker came over and noticed the empty seat next to you. You expected him to just lower the safety bar as the last worker did, but instead, he called out to the line and asked if there were any solo riders that wanted to ride.

You looked over to the line and saw a hand shoot up from the middle of the crowd. The worker waved them over toward the front and it wasn’t until they reached close enough to the gate that you truly saw your new seat partner. A girl with blond hair wearing a black cropped t-shirt and baggy denim jeans squeezed through the line and crossed the gate, walking towards you. She smiled at the worker and thanked him before sitting down in the empty seat.

She turned her head toward you and sent you a smile as well. “Hi,” she greeted as she clipped in her seatbelt, “I hope it’s okay that I join you. The lines are pretty long today, even for this ride for some reason.”

Pretty. That’s your immediate thought when you look over and smile back at her. The nameless girl’s hair was tied back in a ponytail with loose strands framing the sides of her face. You watched as she tucked one of them behind her ear. Fuck. Say something.

Lisa saves you by speaking up instead. “Oh, she’s definitely okay with it. Trust me,” she says turned around in her seat, facing you and your partner. You don’t miss the way she stressed “definitely.”

Jennie was turned around as well. “Yeah, she’s been feeling a bit lonely anyway,” she added with a smug grin, “You’re doing her a favor.”

Your jaw dropped slightly at their comments. You may have already embarrassed yourself with your delayed response, but now they were just adding onto it. You nervously laughed as you turned your head toward the girl seated next to you, who was already looking right back.

“Really?” she asked with a seemingly coy smile, “I’m happy to keep you company then.”

“I’m going to just...” Lisa trails off, turning back around to face the front, tugging on Jennie’s arm for her to do the same. Jennie gives you a wink before following suit.

“My name’s Rosé by the way,” she says to you while offering her hand to shake.

You happily take it into yours and do just that, “I’m y/n. Thanks for keeping me company, Rosé.”

“My pleasure, y/n,” she replies as you both continue to slowly shake hands and smile at one another.

It’s almost as if you both subconsciously agreed to take the time to fully look at each other and observe each other’s facial features. For instance, now that you were looking at Rosé up close, you couldn’t help but notice how pretty her eyes are. Your gaze shifts lower and now you’re thinking about how beautiful her smile is and taking note of the small beauty mark below her bottom lip.

Wait. I’m staring at her lips. You panic and quickly dart your eyes back up to hers, praying she didn’t notice. Unfortunately, your eyes meet instantly and you know you’ve been caught. You find her smirking at you with one of her eyebrows quirked upwards.

You open your mouth to explain yourself but you’re cut off by a deep echoey voice that begins to play along with the eery background music, notifying you that the ride is about to start. You turn your attention to the front as the ride jolts forward and you feel Rosé’s hand disappear from yours.

You feel a nudge against your right arm and a whispered, “Feel free to reach for my hand if you need it,” as the coaster rolls a few feet into the dark. You feel your throat go dry at the feeling of her breath dancing on your ear. You can’t properly see her in the dark, but you can imagine the close proximity she had to have been in to whisper to you; that image is enough to make you flush.

Suddenly, there’s a flash of light and a roar of loud thunder, causing the confident girl next to you to flinch towards you and grab hold of your sleeve.

You laugh at her reaction and the 180 change in her that just occurred. The darkness surrounding you gives you the boost of confidence you need to grab onto Rosé’s hand. “I think you need my hand more than I need yours right now,” you joke and give her hand a slight squeeze.

You hear her laugh in response, “Maybe you’re right.” Her hand doesn’t leave yours for the rest of the ride.

[dreamsy990]

here's a short reclist of multip-chapter/longform ((mostly) joker-centric, alternate universe, angsty, sometimes hurt/comfort) persona 5 fics that i greatly enjoyed

ships may include: goro akechi/joker, (minor hints of yusuke kitagawa/joker in one, i'll mention it in that fics description)

-Oh Alice, There's no Reflection in the Looking Glass. by intothefrisson

An angsty new game plus au that made me cry several times, with some palace ruler Joker mixed in for flavor. It's unfinished but still is a satisfying conclusion where it's left off. This fic ripped my heart out, stomped on it, set it on fire and threw it to a lake full of pirahanas and I'm thanking it. There's some akeshu shipping, but it's pretty tame and not really the main focus. Also the chapter names are gold. Also also there's a bunch of P4 references I didn't really understand, but if you've played that game you might like it. On top of that all is some amazing art that's so good I had some of it as my lock screen for months. I pulled 2 all nighters to finish reading this fic as soon as possible and so if you do that and die uh. I am not responsible.

-It's Showtime by HoneyCirrus

A palace ruler!Joker au that once again stomped on my heart like it was a spider and im still not over it. It's set right between Haru's introduction as Beauty Thief and the actual start of Okumura's palace. It's very fun and Haru breaks a table to get everyone to shut up. I loved every second of this disaster and you will too. This one's the one with minor hints of unrequited Yusuke/Joker so if you're not into that beware, but as someone who's not a big fan of that ship I barely noticed it so don't worry too much.

-Ducks Out by Ren_Saxon (UNFINISHED; ACTIVELY UPDATED)

It may be an elaborate shitpost but this fic has me in a goddamn stranglehold. It's a more Akechi-centric duck soulmate au that has no right to be so good. I'm not a fan of soulmate aus normally but damnit this one broke me. It's the embodiment of crack treated seriously and if you like that then you'll love this, and if you don't give it a shot anyway. Akechi's inner monologue is hilarious and Arsene being terrible at directions is a thing. Arsene is here and he is a disaster.

-a heartbeat without harmony by pana (panaceaa) (UNFINISHED; ACTIVELY UPDATED)

This one's not really angsty I just think it's funny. Akechi and Joker get into a fake dating competition and become menaces upon society. It's only 2 chapters in out of 5 but I liked it enough to share. If you like slamming your face into a wall wanting to strangle your blorbo because they can't see obvious signs then congrats, this is the one for you. Do beware of the eventual smut tag though.

5, 13, and 74 for the fanfic ask game!

5) How many wips do you have?  What fandoms/pairings are they for?

Too many! lol Ok, there's WIPs I have that I am currently working on and in my head and hope to actually write out. There's about 4 of them at the moment. There are WIPS that I have written in my notebook but still need to type out and edit..there are 9 of those, but they are all one shots. Then I have Strangers in the Night and Christmas with The Formans the two multi chapter stories I'm more likely to work on and post. (CWTF not till the Holiday season tho) And then there are some WIPs of unfinished fics that I would love to finish one day...some day...I have 6 of those.

Most of the fics are That '70s Show but the ones in my notebook are mostly related to That '90s Show. There are 5 that take place directly in that universe (not including my upcoming Red and Ozzie one)

13) Do you listen to music while you write?  If yes, what have you been listening to recently?

I do! I usually have those daily mix playlist on Spotify playing when I'm writing and they can range from 90s country to 70s love songs. I do have a playlist I've created for Strangers in the Night that I love listening to. And @70s-show-diary I've listened to your Red/Kitty Taylor Swift playlists a few times when working on some Red/Kitty focused one shots :D

74) Do you have a fic you wish got a bit more love?

So I mentioned Strangers in the Night yesterday, but like I said it's been getting some really sweet love from you, @tht70sblog and @70s-show-diary lately, thank you al again SO much for that!

I think though the other fic that I wish got more love was 'Christmas with the Formans', I love writing that one but it's been tough to find an audience for it, could be the lack of romance in it but it's a fun Red/Kitty focused fic with Christmas playing a major role in it. It's two of my favorite things, I love it and hope to finish it someday soon!

Thank you so much for these questions @thatseventiesbitch I loved answering them!

Fic Author Self Rec

Fic authors self-rec! ✨ When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you’ve written, then pass on to at least five other writers ❤️

Thank you for the tag @annabtg

In no real order below you'll find 5 stories that I'm proud of writing.

But first, I want to let you know how much fun it is to receive these kinds of questions that make you think about what you're writing/have written... so thanks for that!! Also, to anyone who takes the time to read any of my stories, I want to apologise for all my writing errors (if you see any feel free to point them out to me;-) If you did enjoy something it's an absolute high for me to hear about that as well. I've learned so much in the past year just by starting to write and post and getting hearts & comments. I've met some amazing people online through this that have become friends I hope, and I've learned a lot from their feedback. I also want to thank anyone who ever wrote me kind comments. You have no idea how much that has encouraged me to try new things (I'd never in a million years thought I'd be writing an alternative Animages story or anything actually smutty, let alone more than just one or two things.), and this encouragement has made writing even more fun! It's something else when someone tells you they like the world or story you've created. (another thing about going back and picking 5 works, is that it made me see some sort of growth in my writing, but also it makes me want to hide a bit under a rock somewhere or edit the hell out of my earlier posted things) Self-esteem is a fickle thing. so again thanks for this ask/tag. 1) It Was a Clear Black Night, a Clear White Moon Jily, 7k. Hogwarts jily-challenge One shot.

Lily Evans, Head Girl, sees Jame Potter, Head Boy, sneak out of the castle on a full moon. She decides to follow him, perhaps not the best idea she ever had.

I'm proud of how this story turned out quite thrilling and not slap-stick (or at least I don't think so- lol) and also has some sweetness, and humour mixed with seriousness. Werewolves & full moons are serious business after all.

2) Beggin' Jily, 7k. One-shot. A tale of Jily moments seen through the eyes of Peter Pettigrew. He tries to make sense of his life, the war and the big things in the world such as love, friendship and how to survive after Hogwarts. He also wants very much to apologise. (see the end notes for spoilers). This idea wouldn't let me go and that's why it's here. Don't read this if you don't like sad things. I feel this is bittersweet and personally, that's something I enjoy reading myself.

3) Head over Handlebars For You Jily, multichapter Muggle AU unfinished 11/15, currently 39k. My first ever Jily Challenge prompt was the following: I hit you with my car/broom and was the only one to visit you in the hospital. Because I ride a carrier bike (with kids, a dog, or groceries in;-) almost every day, I wanted very much to have this crash happen with a carrier bike. As I feel the stigma is very much a family/mother bicycle I wanted James to be riding it. This story also has evolved into something I didn't expect (It's still the general idea I once had but I severely underestimated how much more to the story there was, and I've learnt a whole lot, just from writing this. I think this story is fun, a bit sexy, has some excitement, humour and has some serious moments. And there will be romance. because it's a jily modern fairy tale after all. I'm hoping to finish up the last 3-4 chapters and post them in April/May. 4) Revelation 1,3 K One shot - microfic. I like Lily's thoughts in this, I loved to try to write something short but still have something big happen. And I'm very much in awe of all the people who do that (say a lot in little words) much much better than me! Difficult to pick the last one, as much as I want to hide under a rock, and how much I'd like to improve all of them, there was a lot of love and time put into writing them ;-) but rules are rules... 5) Not the Doctor this is a crazy texting fic that is very much based on real life facts ;-) the hilariousness of having a James Potter Face claim actually work in the gynaecology department, and the horrors of said visit were impossible to ignore and then the story basically wrote itself. It's not deep. I'm sure it's not very good either, but it was fun *to write*. Not to worry, it all ends well (both in this fic as IRL ;-)

Multichapter Fic masterpost

So since I have like 16 one-shots, I thought it’d be useless to make a masterpost for every single fic. So instead, I’ll just do it for every fic that’s more than one chapter long.

Up The Wolves (Finished): A Whisper/Tangle band AU! Tangle’s favourite band, the diamond cutters, visit Spiral Hill Village.

Workshopping (Finished): After Whisper’s fight with Surge in Central City, she pays a visit to Tails to make sure her wispon still works.

A Cut Above The Rest (On indefinite hiatus) A Whisper/Tangle AU where the Diamond cutters are still alive, which results in Tangle and Whisper meeting under different circumstances. I plan on returning to this idea someday, but I’ll probably just delete this fic and make a new one altogether if that happens.

Transcendental Youth (Finished): Whisper/Tangle futurefic. Twenty years in the future, Tangle and Whisper have a son named Whistle. After he turns fourteen, however, things change, and the family needs to face an old enemy.

Hast thou considered the tetrapod (Ongoing): Clove the pronghorn decides that it’s time to leave the Eggman empire, and save her sister. A continuation of an unfinished storyline from reboot Archie. Mixes elements from the Archie reboot universe and the IDW universe.

And what the hell, might as well throw in this too.

Tangle and Whisper’s adventure shenanigans (Ongoing): Basically a bunch of Whisper/Tangle fics I've made. The first 4 fics are one overarching story, but after that, they’re mostly standalone with some loose ties to each other.

2022 Roundup - Writing

It was a mixed writing year for me - on the one hand I picked up some old projects, on the other hand I didn't actually finish the fics I intended to complete by the end of the year, and didn't meet or exceed my 2021 output.

I also didn't actually get much of my poor neglected novel written, however I have joined a writer's group irl and gotten some great feedback on what I've done so far, as well as some editing and have really thought through some of the plot/character issues that were blocking me.

So now 2023 is the year I complete this thing and start making a genuine effort to get it published!

2023 is also the year of finishing unfinished wips, including all of the below (except ttbw which was a one shot) and some I have in my docs that I didn't get any significant work done on this year.

Turn Your Face to the Sun - 8,518

Here I Go Again - 24,664

Nottingham Quintet - 5,146

Take these broken wings (and learn to fly) - 4,092

Novel - 3,140

Total: 45,440

🥺🤡😈✨💋⛔👀🎉🤯 For those fanfic asks!! <3

🥺 Is there a certain type of moment or common interaction between your characters that never fails to put you in your feels?

the inherent tenderness of cleaning the blood off another… of caring for them after they’ve gone on a murder spree… of tending to their wounds…. OH, also comforting someone after they’ve been possessed. THE POWER OF LOVE OVERCOMING CURSES AND SPELLS ALSO, BUT IT’S EXTREMELY DRAINING AND IT ENDS WITH BOTH CHARACTERS CLINGING TO EACH OTHER FOR DEAR LIFE, TAKING SOLACE IN EACH OTHER!!!

🤡 What's a line, scene, or exchange you've written that made you laugh?

she would shoot jacks for her own entertainment btw

😈 Has there been a point in a story where you did something just to be playfully mean to your readers?

oh, for sure. pretty much any sort of angsty foreshadowing is playfully mean, but the most recent example is probably the way i kept hinting at azure never drinking / eating in the october fic. initially it seems it’s out of his stress for chrysi, but obviously that’s not the whole truth…

also, whenever chrysi ignores jacks’s advances before she realizes he has feelings for her… it’s so mean! it hurts him! it’s very fun to watch everyone yell at her for not acknowledging his feelings :)

basically, everything is playfully mean when you enjoy writing painful scenarios 🖤

✨ Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. 😉

hmm, my writing is the exact kind of heartbreaking that i adore, mixed with a wry sense of humor 😌

💋 First kiss fics. Love em or hate em?

i personally love writing first kiss fics w chrysi in particular, since she will have a first kiss with someone and then take about six more months to admit her feelings for them. she’s so fascinating in that regard.

chrysijacks first kiss fics are esp hilarious since it’s like. jacks going “oh my god… i’ve found my one true love…” and chrysi’s like “alright so back to business, since i felt absolutely nothing when we kissed 🖤” guys…

⛔ Do you have a fic you started, but scrapped?

it’s not that i’ve scrapped them, it’s jst more of the fact that i don’t know if i’ll ever have the time to write all of them, buuut i think most notably would be my ella enchanted chrysijacks au… i’ll probably jst post the scene where she almost stabs him and leave it at that. all the other snippets i’ve written will go in my unfinished folder 🤧

👀 Tell me about an up and coming wip please!

obviously i’ve said this before, but i’m working on the jacks origin story fic as of right now. it’s about jacks and his friendship with chrysi and the way it all devolves as she hides her disease from him + as she falls in love with azure. i also explore the deal he made with the fallen star after azure and chrysi both die and how that correlates with his fear of being unimportant and his fear of dying.

basically, i’m character-studying jacks and writing yet another angst soulmates story with chryzure.

🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?

if it makes me want to wail into my pillow as i write it (affectionate), and if it gives me a clear mental image of the scenes playing out, AND IF I ACTUALLY FINISH IT… it is a success 🖤

🤯 What's a genre you struggle with as a writer (ex. romance, action, etc.)?

hmm… i think action might be the hardest for me to write? i’m a very visual writer (everything is like a movie in my head), and it’s hard to get camera angles / shot-editing / a visual medium to explain disorientation across in a written medium instead.

in the same vein, i find adventure to be a bit difficult too… i can’t explain it, but action-adventure has never been my niche. i like a slower pace in my writing. lots of character moments rather than scenario moments!

#.asks #m.filly✨ #jacks is a character i like to put under a microscope at all times #tbh i feel like i understand his driving motivations and fears the best 🖤 i’m jst right abt everything wrt him….

@hedgewyse @hedgewyse ... i think tumblr fucked up w the tagging again ... thank you! i finally got around to do this bc i’m on my laptop.. i loved ur color answer bruh pop off!!

Favourite colour: Purple! Lavender to be specific and becuase i'm completely predictable my favourite scent is Lavender too and if you'd ask me about my favourite flower

it would be a tie between lavender and sunflowers. also i used to have blue as my fave and i used  to hate hate hate pink so i think accepting pink as a color

and growing out of my blue phase naturally leads to purple, it all makes sense

Currently reading: Nothing really though i need to finally finish Mister Impossible before Greywaren comes out.also i am actually reading a WIP fic on ao3 for once

it's Somewhere Only We Know by CynicalSinister; i liked the concept idea so i guess i'll keep up to date with that one

Next in my tbr tab group in chrome are WaiKorn fics and two unfinished Kinnporsche social media AUs

Last song: Currently playing on Spotify is Numb Little Bug by Em Beihold (I'm listening to the new 'Friends-Mix' i love seeing the different

songs all my Spotify friends have in common it's great)

My top song last week was Why Don't You Stay world tour ver. bc they finally put it on spotify and i discovered a song today!! i think it's gonna be my new obsession i love the vocals

it's Run Away To Mars by TALK

Last series: To My Star S1; i'm showing it to my friend and it's so much fun rewatching it after having watched S2!!

((gonna go watch the new Vice Versa ep with a diff friend now hehe)))

Last movie: Went to a cinema Sneak Preview with a few friends and they showed a movie called "(the?) Chase". it was bad. like really really bad. There's worse movies out there but...

it's just a dude trying to find his kidnapped wife and going on a rampage, killing two drug dealers, kidnapping another drug dealer, not even getting shot or stabbed or otherwise hurt once

and then getting applauded by the police for finding his wife on his own instead of sharing his intel.

he didn't even get a fine for killing multiple people lol nothing '

also the wife was about to divorce him but now she's traumatised and he's her hero so i guess they live happily ever after :)

Currently working on: NOTHING it's horrible i want to use tomorrow to start new video edits tho... i've got 0 motivation tho idk i'm completely drained i just wanna watch tiktoks all day

#once again not gonna tag anyone bc im lazy #im sorry but im such a dead end for tag games recently #i love participating tho #tag game #rambles

[emmithar-blog]

I was tagged by ,@whyyouacknsocraycray

How many works do you have on AO3?

81 currently. 77 completed, which means I have a lot more WIP than previously thought...

2. What is your AO3 wordcount?

987,989 words

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Red Dead Redemption. I don't have many obsessions...

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Forsaken (730)

Tears of Ice (372)

Silver and Gold (347)

Brotherhood (340)

Evanescence (328)

5. Do you respond to comments?

I do! Though sometimes I've been late on replying (Currently have 14 I haven't responded to yet, but plan on getting to them eventually...)

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I have a entire series of Whumptober fics that have some not so happy endings. Though I think Balancing the Scales might take that award.

7. What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Happy? What is this 'Happy' you speak of?

In all seriousness, there's a couple I feel that end on a higher note. Forsaken, Silver and Gold both come to mind. I have a few one shots floating around that lighter in humor as well.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I don't think I have on Ao3, no.

9. Do you write smut? If so, which kind?

That's a hard no, seeing as I'm ace. Sorry folks.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest crossover you’ve ever written?

I haven't no. I'm not a huge fan of them.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not on Ao3 no, but back on FF I have. Woke up one morning to a flood of emails from concerned readers flagging a fic that matched one of mine word for word in some areas. Issue was resolved quite quickly though. Bless my readers who kept an eye out for that.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

I had some older Robin Hood fic that were translated into Finnish actually! That was a pretty cool experience. So long ago now I don't remember where it was posted (FF I think, and one other site), but it was big thing at that time, esp since I was still in high school.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Several times yes! It can be quite a bit of fun, esp when working to match styles of the other writer(s).

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Once again – Ace, so I'm not too invested in such a thing. That being said, for RDR2, other than canon ships, I do see the appeal of Sadie/Arthur as well as Charles/Arthur, though I write (nor read) either really.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

We're not going to talk about my four unfinished fics, because I'm going to finish them eventually.

When I have time.

And brain power.

And zero other distractions...

Moving on....

16. What are your writing strengths?

I've been told I tend to capture the likeness of certain characters, including dialogue and inner thoughts. I feel like I keep good pacing over longer stories, and that I have the ability to paint vivid scenes to help readers immerse themselves in the story.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I have the inability to write a short fic. Anytime I tell myself 'Oh yeah, that'll only be x words/chapters, it nearly triples in length. Looking at you, Silver and Gold, (aka minibang fic)

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I've done this before with some Spanish when characters were in appropriate situations, where they weren't supposed to know/understand what was being said. I think I've done it once with German, but I could be wrong. I feel it add flavor when done a sparse amount, and not have it be too overbearing for the reader to muddle through.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Lord of the Rings was the first fandom I wrote and actually posted for, though Jedi Apprentice from Star Wars was what got the fanfic train rolling. I rewrote an ending to something that really annoyed me and I felt like I could write it better so I did. That was in the pre-internet era though, so it never made it online. (FF didn't even exist yet!)

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

I'm fairly partial to Learning Hurts. It has a mix of what I enjoy (Hurt, comfort, reassurance, growth) and I love the play of the title. Several characters end up learning something over the course of the story, and as implied, those lessons all come with a bit of hurting.

I'm tagging @darling-jack @sentanixiv @danger-r-98-5 . Share if you feel up to it!

[harryissuchalittleshit]

👶 if your fics were children what order/age would they be (ie. youngest, middle, oldest, the weird kid who's always at your house but just isn't your child)?

Oldest to youngest and then the weird kid at the end:

Oldest

Broken by You - the first fic I ever published on Ao3, I can’t even make myself read it anymore

I feel pretty - the first non one-shot I put on Ao3, needs to be rewritten/revamp, probably won’t be

Kiddies and Kittens - the first 50k fic I put on Ao3, I love the story, need to revamp with my new hcs

it's always raining (whenever we're together) - the first fic I ever put real edits on and changed since published, also my first real rarepair

Don’t Stop - my first smut fic, I can not read it because of the embarrassment, but I still love the concept/idea of it

Middle

The Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw series - a group of one-shots surrounding different students in the Trio’s year and how the faired after the war

For the Dancing and the Dreaming - this is the first fic I completely rewrote from a different fic. I always had written Molly and Lucy in this turmoil, but I wanted to explore more of Percy and Audrey’s dynamic, so this is what came of it.

One Night - the sequel to For the Dancing and the Dreaming, following Molly a few years later through the beginning of a rocky marriage and falling back in love with her husband. It brings back all the favorites from the first fic, but is told in Molly and Artie’s pov.

Reflections - the fic I’m never going to finish but constantly go back to as I write more of the Nott family into fics. I love this family and their story, but it’s going to sit on Ao3 unfinished and in the Slytherin series.

Youngest

Invisible String - the first Nano fic where I actually won the prize by 23k words even though I wasn’t done with the story 😂 but this was the first real fic of the album verse, even though I still have to assign folklore songs to each chapter

Time’s Always Leaving - a fic I didn’t know I was writing until I was. I do love writing George and Angelina, they are amazing and have quickly become favorites of mine in the last two years

Lungs - the second fic that year I didn’t know I was writing until I was. Basically an almost sequel to Invisible String, as it follows the mains from that story over their last school year, but with Louis and Anamika being the stars this time around. It was so much fun diving into Louis’s head and exploring his character.

Evermore - my second Nano story that I won by 20k words. I love to hate this story and I hate to love this story, it has some of my favorite scenes that I have ever written, but at what cost??? This story was such a weird exploration into a toxic relationship that I will never go that far into again if I can help it.

august - the last full fic I wrote and have posted. This was the story I wrote while finally grieving my grandfather, who passed while I was writing Time’s Always Leaving. I haven’t really written anything other than one-shots since, but this fic helped me get through so much and it was nice to write about first love in such young people again.

The Weird Kid

Tumblr prompts - I have a whole list of random one-shots I wrote because of prompts given to me on tumblr!

Jily series - the mix/mash of stories I wrote about our favorite dead parents!

Anything Twilight or PJO related! - I don’t write for those fandoms anymore, but I want the stories I wrote for them to live somewhere. Though I am still fond of some of the Twilight fics, it got me through the beginning of the pandemic and I still have some wips I go back too when I’m bored.
