David is quitting.

He’s had enough of Sebastien’s bullshit. He’s had enough of getting forced into assignments at the last minute and then having to dash across the city, or occasionally the country, to decipher the client’s remit from the scant information Sebastien has seen fit to provide him with. He’s had enough of not getting assignments as a consequence of failing to find Sebastien’s innuendo amusing or his waffle unpretentious or his harassment charming. He’s had more than enough of Raine & Light’s off-the-books philosophy of “sleaze and cheese”, and he especially hates that it rhymes.

So. He’s quitting. This is, in fact, his last job. It could be worse.

Stumbled on this picture cleaning out my fic folder. Still remember the resignation in my partner's face when I announced this plan for our gingerbread project lol.

We went way overboard. We even made a template. We had a blast. We never made anything out of gingerbread again.

Patrick treats David to a moderately edible birthday dinner at Café Tropical and David attempts to give Patrick a memorable end to their evening. He definitely succeeds, although it might not be in the way he had hoped.

Or… The grad night kiss/Johnny & David awkward car hug mash-up that no one asked for.

New girl is a straight show for gays, Schitts Creek is a gay show for gays, Modern Family is a gay show for straights, Friends is a straight show for straights, Community is a homophobic show for gays, How I Met your Mother is a straightphobic show for straights

Hope this helps.

Under the cut because it’s a lot of words

a long winter of indifference

The gap between their bodies is maybe six inches at most, but to David, it feels like miles. That little sliver of Egyptian cotton might as well be the Marianas Trench for as impossible as it feels to traverse, and every night they don’t cross it, it gets a little wider.

The crack on David’s heart gets a little wider, too.

David isn’t sure when it all started, can’t pinpoint a moment when it all began to fall apart. It was insidious; by the time he noticed something was wrong, the chasm between them had already formed.

If pressed, David would probably say it started with Clint’s heart attack around Thanksgiving. Though it was relatively minor—thankfully—the recovery was still long, and Patrick put a lot of miles on his old Toyota driving between Schitt’s Creek and West Canthor. David tried his best to be supportive, but the stress of keeping the store running while Patrick was away, of sleeping alone more nights than not, of constantly worrying about the Brewers—all of them—was caustic and ate away at the soft parts of him. The strain caused Patrick to shut down and to shut David out.

By the time Patrick was able to return to their lives, the holiday rush was in full swing. Neither of them had the time or energy to deal with anything that wasn’t the store, let alone the ever expanding rift between them.

The resulting infinitesimal shift in their marriage grew and swelled with each little stressor—the anemic sales throughout December putting a strain on their savings, the damage the cottage sustained in an early January snowstorm, all the little swipes and jabs they’ve taken at each other in the intervening months—and now David is staring at the rigid line of his husband’s back, afraid that something’s been irreparably damaged.

It’s been a long time since things felt this hopeless.

tangle and stretch

Patrick is thirty-two years old when David asks him if he believes in soulmates, and this time, he’s prepared.

“Yes,” he answers without hesitation.

David turns to stare at him. “You do?”

“You seem surprised.”

“Well…yeah,” David replies, still staring at him with his mouth hanging open. “I mean, you are the numbers guy.”

“Ouch, David,” Patrick teases. David rolls his eyes. “Do you want to know why I believe in soulmates?” David looks hesitant, his still-ever-present fear that the other shoe is going to drop evident on his face. Patrick takes his hand gently. “I didn’t used to. But when I was ten, I saw a boy on the cover of a magazine.”

Patrick tells him about the magazine, about the Christmas cards, about watching A Little Bit Alexis. About losing him and finding him again years later at a moment that he sorely needed him. By the end, they’re both in tears.

“That’s why I believe in soulmates, David,” Patrick says, gingerly wiping a tear from David’s cheek with his thumb. “Because how else can I explain how I ended up here?”

your secret’s safe with me

Of all the Big Relationship Moments in all those rom-coms David made her watch, Stevie never expected that “picking your lover up at the airport after a long time apart” would be a thing that she’s into. There’s nothing romantic or sexy about airports in general; in fact, airports are probably the exact opposite of everything she finds attractive. But despite all of that, there’s butterflies in her stomach and a tingling at the base of her spine when she sees Ruth appear at the top of the escalator leading down to baggage claim. It only intensifies when Ruth spots her and breaks into a wide grin.

They don’t leap into each other’s arms, but it’s a close thing.

“Hi,” Ruth murmurs, her breath ghosting across Stevie’s neck as Ruth pulls her into a hug. Stevie inhales deeply, wrapping herself in the scent of Ruth–a strangely intoxicating mix of her fancy perfume and the scent of paper and ink. “I missed you.”

“I missed you, too,” Stevie sighs, sinking into the embrace. She’s never been one for public displays of affection outside of making out in bars, but it’s been too long. She leans up and presses a kiss to Ruth’s soft lips, relishing the taste of her mango lip balm and the coffee she must have had on the plane. It’s a relatively chaste and quick kiss because, well, airports. But it still kindles a small fire low in Stevie’s belly, one that she hopes they’ll have plenty of time to tend to later.

let my love fix you up

He’s not able to finish the sentence but he doesn’t need to. Patrick already knows. He can’t say he hasn’t had the same feelings bubble up inside him, like when the store was robbed or when David was in a car accident last winter. It’s the price of loving someone, he supposes, the crushing fear of losing them.

with a hand on your side of the bed

Last night was a revelation, in more ways than one. Of course it was wonderful to have the privacy to finally connect, and he’s certainly keen to repeat the experience, preferably as soon as possible. But he was surprised to realize how nice it was just to be able to fall asleep together, and even nicer to wake to find Patrick still there. He hadn’t quite dared to hope for it—there were too many mornings back in his old life that he woke up alone and lonely in a bed far too big for one. But Patrick stayed. And despite the morning breath and the under-eye bags and whatever crime his hair was committing, Patrick still brushed a curl off his forehead and kissed him and told him he was beautiful.

And how, after all of that, is David expected to go back to sleeping alone?

Sighing again, he flips over on his side and picks up his phone. The glow of the screen lights up the room and he squints at it as his eyes adjust. He wants to text Patrick, but he’s likely already asleep. And anyway, what would he say? It seems too early in the relationship to say sleeping in your arms ruined me for ever being able to sleep without you, no matter how true it might be. (Actually, the truth of it scares David more than a little. It’s too soon to think like this, in always and forever but he can’t help it.) He could just say I miss you, because that’s just as true, but he doesn’t want to come across as too needy. They’re already past the point in a relationship when people usually get tired of him, so he feels like he’s living on borrowed time.

His phone vibrates in his hand and a notification from Patrick pops up.

Can’t sleep. Miss you. Thinking about last night.

Before he types out a response, David hides his smile behind his hand, even though there’s no one around to see it.

coming home to you

Stevie thought that if she ever got the chance, she’d put the town in her rearview mirror and never look back, but the chances did come, from David first, then from Mr. Rose, and both times she chose to stay. Somewhere along the line, sometime between when the Roses crash landed in her life and when they left again (some of them, anyway), the town grew on her.

It’s been years now, but every time they pull into the cottage’s driveway after she’s been away, she thinks back to that afternoon when she and David sat on the hood of her car and she told him he’d won. It’s been years now, but it’s still true. And maybe she won a little bit, too.

the lie between your teeth

David spent years meticulously building up walls, brick by brick, protecting the already charred exterior of his marshmallow heart. It only took Patrick a few minutes to find the tiniest chink in David’s armor, a few days to pull down the highest walls, flaying him bare in a way that so few people have been able to.

After that, David just gets angry. Angry at Patrick, angry at his parents for landing them in this situation, angry at Uncle Eli for the same, angry at everyone, but worst of all, he’s angry at himself. He should have had better self-preservation instincts than this, should have known that landing in a ridiculously-named tiny town in rural Ontario wasn’t going to fundamentally change the course of his relationships.

TWO WHOLE YEARS OF FARM WITCHES!

The coven cannot believe that it has somehow been two years! We thank you for every ask you’ve sent, every post you’ve reblogged, for the kudos and comments you leave for creators, and for allowing us to be part of this community.

Please enjoy these recs from the witches and click those hearts and kudos for the creators. 

We’ll be out celebrating until the cows come home. Or we fall off our brooms. Whichever comes first.

============================

allegedly incorrect Schitt's creek (@roseapothecary​) **GIF SET**  “We love a "this could have happened" moment and this allegedly incorrect set had us cracking up. Really, though, couldn't it have gone this way?”

Better latte than never (doingthemost/@sarahlevys​) “Absolutely charming AU where Patrick finds himself "accidentally" working at a Starbucks with David.”

Open arms and wide awake (sweetsirius/@wordthieve​)  “It's just so soft! David is a professional cuddler (ew, but he hates that word) and Patrick is a client looking for a new start after upheaving his entire life. They both have a chance to find something special they didn't even know they were looking for.”

Return me to private hunger (MoreHuman)  “This beautifully written fic explores all the queer feelings as it answers the question "What if David were asexual?"”

A splash quite unnoticed ( @middyblue) “This stunning introspective Patrick fic was inspired by The Fall of Icarus, one of this witch's favorite stories from Greek mythology”.

karfy!! I hope you're having a fantastic vacation!! I'm in the middle of a schitt's creek binge, and I can't stop thinking about a schitt's creek au. what do you think of the weasleys as roland and jocelyn and then mutt as bill? and who would ted be?? any other thoughts or hc's?? <333

HIIII LYNX!! <33 I'm sorry it's taken me so long to reply to this, my brain was broken again. But! I am back from vacation and ready to ponder the important things in life.

Schitt's Creek au is so important to me. I need to start my rewatch and let the crack simmer like a good soup.

I have been trying so hard to picture the perfect Ted and it is a struggle. I feel like if Alexis is Regulus, then maybe Ted should be Evan??? Genius casting of the Schitt's as the Weasley's. I also think it makes it even funnier that they ultimately become friends with the Blacks. I think you're right about Bill as Mutt. It feels right.

I keep thinking about Sirius and Lily sleeping together and then having the wine convo....also the whole musical situation. I'm still set on Regulus singing "A Little Bit Regulus". We could make it work, by god. Also Remus singing and dancing??? YES.

I'll get back to you with more....

I Am Not A Cat Burglar

T | 8K | David/Patrick | Coffee Shop AU | Alternate First Meeting | Fluff & Crack

After reading his text conversation with Cute Cat Guy aloud, Stevie hands David back his phone with her mouth agape.

“David! You're the one being obnoxious. He was so flirting with you. You have a date!”

“I do not have a date. We’ve set a time to exchange the cat.”

“And he asked if you’d like to go for coffee… that's a date.”

“It's a gratitude coffee.”

“It's a date.”

“It's one beverage, Stevie. Don't get excited.”

Or, David's been missing his lost cat for weeks. Her return a few days later brings something unexpected he didn't know he was looking for.

20 Questions for Fic Writers

thank you @catknives for tagging me (even though i’m responding 2 months later 😅)

First, my AO3

How many works do you have on AO3?

107!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

223, 678 words, counting co-writing and co-podding works!

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Currently Stranger Things, but I do have some Fargo s5 fic in the works. Back in the day it was a lot of Supernatural, Doctor Who, Check Please!, Schitt’s Creek, (regrettably) The Big Bang Theory, Marvel, The Mortal Instruments, and The Infernal Devices

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Familiar to Me (Supernatural), Intervention (Supernatural), felled by you (Stranger Things), Avenging Barbarian (Stranger Things), and A Truth Universally Acknowledged (Stranger Things)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I do! Mainly because I like the interaction (especially when readers have predictions/ world-building thoughts). I also screenshot my favorite ones for when I need motivation or a pick me up.

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

Probably Happy Springtime Cas (Supernatural) because it’s Main Character Death

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

This Ken Has a Boyfriend! (Stranger Things) because it is pure crack and delight ❤️

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not so much hate, but I could always tell when someone hasn’t seen You’ve Got Mail based on how critical they are of Cas in A Truth Universally Acknowledged. Which, at that point, please discuss it with your friends and not me. I decided to follow the plot of You’ve Got Mail pretty close, and for some people it was too much that Dean lost his store like Kathleen. (And I only cried about it twice, which is a win for me).

9. Do you write smut?

yes, primarily omegaverse and kink. oh if 15 year old sweetpea could see me now skdlfjsdjf

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

Gonna show my age here, but for my 100th fanfic on FF.net I wrote a SuperWhoLock fic. I’ve also written a Supernatural/Check Please! crossover, and I’m in the middle of writing a Fargo/Stranger things crossover (Gator with older Steve/Eddie, anyone?).

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

No, thank god!

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! Birthday Wish (Stranger Things) was translated by Azalea_Violetta

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

I’m currently working on a co-written fic for a ST Femslash Server I’m in (not sure how much I can say publicly!). But I’ve been apart of many multi-voice podfic (podfic voiced with a whole cast instead of one person).

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Currently gripped by Steddie.

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

The bio-bdsm destiel fic. I might get back to it some day, but my Stranger Things fascination gripped me about the same time I was noodling with it. Also, I’m so bad about finishing long fics 🤦‍♀️

16. What are your writing strengths?

Description, sentence fragments as poetic license

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Plot v. cool scene, anxiety editing

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

I’d like to apologize for 16 year old me for slapping Google Translate lines in fic. I’m sure there were many cringy translations. Otherwise, I don’t think too hard when I see them in fic.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Unposted: American Girl; Posted: Doctor Who

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

pinkie swear (Stranger Things). It was my last fill for Stobin Month and it was so cathartic and enjoyable to write. I just love Steve and Robin’s friendship ❤️

HELLO MJ happy nice ask day!!

What would you say your favorite kind of ic to write is? Feel free to use any criteria, genre/vibe/length/etc. And does that match what readers respond to most strongly?

You would think, after publishing 220 fanworks in 3.5 years, I would have a good handle on the things I most enjoy. However I seem to have forgotten everything I’ve ever written and also the process of writing it 😅

I love a challenge. So, like, drabbles or other strict wordcount requirements are something I get a lot of satisfaction out of—some of my favourite comments are “how dare you make me cry in 100 words”. I once wrote a sonnet that was also a true drabble; that might have been where this particular quirk of mine peaked 😂 But that liking a challenge thing is also why I really enjoy writing pairings no one’s written (especially when they’re characters that haven’t met in canon); I remain eternally smug about how many people I dragged onto the Jake/Rachel train in Schitt’s Creek. The classic “crack concept tender execution” falls under this banner as well.

But the thing I enjoy writing most that readers also react most strongly to, and I feel like I’ve overused this phrase in the last few weeks in the wake of the Much Ado actor AU, is queer joy. Unapologetic explorations and celebrations of queerness (as well as other facets of sexuality like kink and non-monogamy/polyamory) are incredibly, deeply important to me. Probably the most incredible comment section of anything I’ve ever written is the fic about Patrick wondering if he’s entitled to use the word queer—it’s probably not an exaggeration to say I’ve reread those comments more than any of my other fics combined, usually when I’m in a funk and wondering what the point of me writing at all is lol.
