Currently brainrotting over an unfinished fic I wrote with a friend years ago. Like, I'm not joking. Why did the character motivations and actions have to be that good.
The protagonist is Grian, and you know what? He's not a good person. The antagonist is Doc, and you know what? He's not a good person.
You can see how they become that way. People always saw Grian as a hero. People always saw Doc as a villain. You can see why they did what they did. You can forgive their actions even... or well, understand them. They both pass the reasonable moral horizon. They both do mindless violence just for a point. There's so many parallels between them.
I'm half tempted to reread it and ask said friend if I could edit it and post it.
Edit: It's almost 13k words long. Holy shit. It cut off during the final battle between Grian and Doc too.
Edit again: I forgot it was in first person perspective. This is a conundrum.
Edit once more: Grian is losing it y'all. Just wanted to let you know, if you didn't already. He is also a wet rag of a man and it's amazing. Yes, Grian, bad things happened. Yes, Grian, they are bad. Yes, Grian, this was your fault. What did you think was happening?
Edit from Painville, Deckessee: Wow, that's some inaccurate brain damage right there.
Oh, what's this? Another edit: Alas, we've come to (one of) my favourite parts of the fic. "What is this, some story written by 12 year olds?"
UPDATE: It's available!! Mockingbird.

Not sure how I'm doing right now. I'm not able to write but I have gone back to AO3 and started answering the lovely comments from people who responded to my Sherlock pics of moons ago. I thought I'd never get into any fandom again and never thought I would write again, but it seems I needed to.
It's taking a while to respond and weirdly it's had me reading the fic I wrote and it's almost like I didn't write it. And some of it seems pretty good. I worried when I wrote Good Omens fanfic that I would repeat myself, that the dialogue would sound the same and I'm sure there's similarity in the style, but the dialogue is different. I'm quite proud. And enjoying it.
And I need some inspiration to write something new, some other way for Aziraphale and Crowley to get all entangled. I don't know if I can do fix it, or even want to. But a situation, something fun and fluffy and yeah, maybe smutty, I want that.
Any ideas?

Man my younger self was wilding with some of these Ninjago Fanfics
Having Maya cheat on Ray with Chen is not the plot twist I was expecting, let alone saying Nya was his daughter as a result making her the half sister of Skylor.
Like 14 year old me what in the world *wheezing*

Reminiscing about old RE fanfics from the very early 2000s that are likely lost to time and just remembered this one that was about Leon, Claire, Rebecca, and the book characters John and David all fantasizing about banging each other but doing nothing about it while on that plane in the fourth book.
Can't remember Rebecca's fantasy and I think John's was about a threesome with the girls... but Leon's was this innocent ass fantasy about Raccoon City not happening and meeting Claire somewhere else and they get caught in the rain and go back to his place and he's all nervous and drops his keys and then they have some really vanilla sex.
Claire, on the other hand, is fantasizing about getting railed by Leon on a table while he is holding AND FIRING a literal rocket launcher.
And then David is just sitting there like, "but... what if orgy?"

HELP, I FINALLY FOUND THE FANFIC CRACKSHIP I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR! It was deleted from ao3, but somebody uploaded nearly every fanfic published for years now up to a public folder to download. It was the only one ever written, and I got it now. The only one with that tag, and relationship.
P.S. if anybody of any fandom is looking for an old ao3 fanfic, lmk! It takes a while due to the fic folders being huge, the one I’m downloading after downloading a 6.3 gb file is now 34.8 gb, though it is the biggest sooo. IT WILL take a while, but I will find fics for people if anybody needs. Took me so long to understand.
I’m so happy.

Wanted for crimes (not really) against nostalgia.
This is such a longshot, but hey, you never know.
So, once more, as is yearly tradition for my brain, it's missing Magi: The Kingdom of Magic hours. And what does the goblin in me want this time? A VERY specific fanfic series I used to read in the ye olden days of 2015.
Naturally I go looking. Now, deviantart - where the series was - is actively an AI hellscape of doom and not much help, as the artist has apparently deleted their account for quite a while.
Next stop was the wayback machine and to my delight, most of the chapters were on there! Key word being: MOST.
Now, is it greed, is it hubris, is it the goblin in me gnawing at my synapses, I don't know. But I need the rest. My options though have very much dried up.
So, to anyone who has ever read the series A Thousand Lights by an artist named Kagamiaoi on Deviantart, if you know the artist, are the artist, or had the forethought I very much lacked to save the series, could you please reach out?
To anyone who read this ENTIRE tirade, thank you very much.

Hello Tumblr,
I've once again come crawling back to ask for help finding a fanfiction... about Hetalia..
I might have a problem, a nostalgia problem
ANYWAYS! does anyone here know the name of that one Gerita and USUK fanfic where Italy ends up in a mental asylum for being gay during the 1940s/50s. And like, America works there as a doctor but he's secretly just as insane as his patients if not worse. Because he and England are just straight up serial killers who call themselves the "Message Man". I think Italy loses an eye to them at some point?
OH! And France runs the damn place as a priest of all things.
I read it a couple years back during middle school/first two years of highschool. I want to reread it but i don't remember the name and can't find it. :( and with the whole, authors going scorched earth and deleting all of their fics recently, I'm worried that it might be gone forever. I can't be the only one that remembers this fic, I could have sworn that it was really popular at the time.

Reading fic on Livejournal feels like digging up some clay or stone tablet with chiseled words on it to read.
can't believe this used to be the norm. Now if only all ye fans of olde would back their shit up to AO3

hello,
like many of us tumblr veterans, i use to write fanfiction in 2016.....that feels like such a long time ago...
i have made posts before on my desires to finish those fics, some left hanging for 8 years.
my readers are likely long gone, the stories from all those years ago are written by a completely different person, but all that being said, i still want to finish off my work and even reprise some of my old completed fics like I've seen other writers do.
I'm not necessarily invested in half these fandom anymore, but as I get older i realize how you don't need to grow out of things, you can still love and honour things you loved in the past, and how much I love fandom culture.
I'm also a non-finisher. I desperately want to finish even one thing to prove to myself I can.
So let's see where this new era takes us.

Thinking about posting my old wattpad fics to AO3 (mostly for safe keeping, but they are really bad; wrote them around the age of 12-15. Also fics that wrote back in the day, but the person got canceled, which was well deserved, a couple years back). But I'm going to leave it up to you guys because I can't make a decision

Not art but I was scrolling thru my phone gallery and spotted THIS. HOLY GRAIL. It's highlights from my old (super problematic, tbh) undertale fanfics. I had to share. PEAK 2015. Art to come soon!! Promise! (NOT of the fanfic hahaha)
Half considering doing "professional" recordings of these (me doing dumb voices and little illustrations) but I dont know if there'd actually be any interest 💀💀
(And yes these were all written 100% unironically, which is awful considering there were multiple full, uninterrupted copyrighted songs shoved in some chapters;;)

I kind of hate how this is the longest story I’ve ever written, and also the longest one I’ve ever finished by a long shot 😂😂 I added in an extra “chapter” later on to give a little promo to a new fanfic I was working on at the time, but I finished the actual fanfic in 5 months. I basically wrote a MINIMUM of 1 chapter a day, and some days I wrote 2 or 3 chapters. I have no idea how I did it, but 16/17 year old me was just built different, I guess 😂

im laughing at this fanfic rough-draft i wrote almost a year ago. I wrote it for fun just to get my ideas out and its thus very messy. Heres the last page of it. It takes place when they are in middle school
Tumblr media
im sorry but wayne calling tony "b**** boy" "PLUS IM BORED" will never not be the funniest thing to me,. The story takes place when they are both in middle school and u cant tell me wayne wouldnt be swearing by that point and just being very insufferable, always ready to fight, lolol.
The context for the dialogue is: Tony goes to middle school and Lucien has a new friend group. They are a grade apart and don't share many classes as is. Tony slowly stops talking to Lucien, but its because of struggles he is having at home, not because of Lucien himself. But hey, its middle school and miscommunications and misunderstandings happen a lot during that time with friends. Lucien doesn't know Tony is struggling and assumes Tony is just mad at him for avoiding him the way he does.
Also theres this (not a fanfic, just rambles)
Tumblr media
Maybe i should draw agent X and Walter shaking hands like past-me wanted. Im not as crazy hyperfixated anymore where it consumes my brain 24/7, but I still do enjoy this cartoon. I always headcanoned that Walter Winkle had a rag to riches story line and that Seth feels abandoned by Mr. Winkle for leaving the Swamp to pursue a better life.
No wonder I had so many fanfic/AU ideas for this cartoon. It had a lot of interesting characters and mini subplots that I wish were explored more
