hello (:

for the fic trope thingy:

1. whump / hurt&comfort

2. enemies to lovers

3. soulmates

Whump or hurt/comfort

Give me a fanfiction trope and I’ll grade it:

A: Love it. Spend my time combing AO3 for it.

B: Like it. Not one of my bigger cravings, but it can scratch a certain itch if I’m in the right mood.

C: Neutral. A good author might be able to sell it, but a bad one will kill it deader than dead.

D: Not my favorite. I avoid it if I can, but it won’t necessarily put me off reading something.

F: Hate it. Will immediately make me nope out of a fic.

Literally my top trope LOLL, honestly you could get hella specific with hurt/comfort tropes and I am into that

2. Enemies to lovers

Give me a fanfiction trope and I’ll grade it:

A: Love it. Spend my time combing AO3 for it.

B: Like it. Not one of my bigger cravings, but it can scratch a certain itch if I’m in the right mood.

C: Neutral. A good author might be able to sell it, but a bad one will kill it deader than dead.

D: Not my favorite. I avoid it if I can, but it won’t necessarily put me off reading something.

F: Hate it. Will immediately make me nope out of a fic.

I think it depends on the ship. I love it as a story trope, but not as much in fic?

3. soulmates

Give me a fanfiction trope and I’ll grade it:

A: Love it. Spend my time combing AO3 for it.

B: Like it. Not one of my bigger cravings, but it can scratch a certain itch if I’m in the right mood.

C: Neutral. A good author might be able to sell it, but a bad one will kill it deader than dead.

D: Not my favorite. I avoid it if I can, but it won’t necessarily put me off reading something.

F: Hate it. Will immediately make me nope out of a fic.

I think soulmates is a trope that needs to be done right. I love a slightly angsty soulmates AU (read a really good one about scars that only your soulmate can see, *chefs kiss*), but I've also seen ones that just toe the line of too cheesy for my liking!

Send me an ask with a fanfic trope and I'll rate it!

[andthedaysthatnevercame]

do you have any tenmartha recs from ao3? thankss :)

i have so many recs from ao3 i feel uniquely qualified to answer this question

They pass me by, all of those great romances by smuggsy: modern au professer/student. martha drunkenly kisses her hot professor. short and sweet

Ice Cream Sunday by Topaz_Eyes: domestic 1969 fic

sometimes bodies by significantowl: post 42, introspective, a little sweet a little melancholy

Beneath A Burning Sun by FictionPenned: martha confesses her feelings to the doctor and it goes well

Nothing But Flowers by Vali: okay. this one fucked me up for days fair warning. ten and martha explore a deeper relationship and they talk a lot about previous relationships they've had. extremely bittersweet, lots of emotional sex

A Planet Near Arcturus by nostalgia: sort of a pre series au? ten picks up martha and gets quickly attached :)

Stages of Transplant by misscam: relationship introspection, good characterization

Memories of Blue by radiantbaby: long time followers will know i have a hard on for anything radiantbaby writes and i will always rec these fics. short but powerful! i think the characters feel very true to their core. martha reflects on the doctor's apperance

On Hunting and Being Hunted by otsos: shameless self promotion. my very own 1969 fic. domestic, introspective, a little sad and a lot of pining

Swear to Me by otsos: more of my stuff. post journey's end fixit. follows the doctor and martha's relationship from beginning to another beginning

collecting damages by thenorthernchild: this one is actually ninemartha and it's not complete yet, but i am obsessed with it, so i will be reccing it.

PROMPT MASTERPOST 

First masterpost of the 2023! We ran the challenge with three prompts this time -  character study, dreams, and first dance. Thank you to all who entered! Hope everyone enjoys x  (entries under the cut)

dreams | ShipperTrash140109

read on ao3

pairing/character: Alex/Tommy, Gibson/Tommy

word count: 3842

summary:   Ever since he was a boy he’s had trouble sleeping. He’d long ago resolved that he wasn’t insane, or mentally ill, or physically ill, for that matter. The latter two truths had only been verified after flushing thousands of pounds down the drain for a lab coat to tell him he’s just right-brained or some rubbish. He was as healthy as an underweight, sleep-deprived twentysomething with an addiction to smoking cheap cigarettes and consuming energy drinks could be. The only (small) hiccup was the other guy haunting his headspace for as long as he can remember, but like he said, that was only really very small.

Pull Me Up From Down Below | nazgularepeopletoo

pairing/character: Highlander 3, OC

word count: 943

summary: There wasn’t always water. Most of the time it was just dark, nothing around him, nothing touching him. Those were better. Nicer. They were easier to forget. When there was water he remembered.

Resting Smirky Face

Let’s start off with a little verse from my BAME gt-granny:

Whatever ignorance men may show,

From none disdainful turn;

For everyone doth something know

Which you have yet to learn.

I've been thinking about this verse since the funeral. So much to learn from! The solemnity and dignity, and then the supposed tantrums about uniform; the grief-ravaged faces of many, and then the delicately-wiped crocodile tears of another -- plus a quick phone call to her PR, hyping up her worth on the US talk-show market; the quiet grace and beauty of your new P&PofWales and their amazing children, and then the Duchess of Resting Smirky McSmirkyface and her husband -- who appears to have a lot of pent up anger and resentment, most of it of his own making but goaded on by Smirkles.

Gt-granny died when I was about 10, so I remember her well, though I'd love to have known her for longer. Her point here was that no-one should ever stop learning, even from someone unlikeable, or that you are merely polite to in public, or otherwise try and avoid by crossing the road because what you'd really really really really like to do is slap the smirk off their face with a stinky piece of haddock.

Smuggsy has provided a lot of people with a lot of learning opportunities. For that, we should be thankful - a bit. A tiny little bit. But have Smuggsy and Muggsy learned anything back, these past couple of weeks? I got the impression that Muggsy has started to realise what he's given up, but Smuggsy? She thinks she knows everything already and has nothing left to learn. I get no sense of introspection or self-reflection from her; no idea that she understands that she might actually be the problem; and not the slightest hint that she realises she's just not important.

Psychologists (professional and amateur) can point out her vanity and narcissism and a few other personality problems, but I'm just happy to learn from her... while secretly retaining my fantasies about her attending a polo match and falling face-first off her high-heels into a big pile of steaming horse doo-doo.

Smuggsy can't learn. If she can't learn, she can't grow as a person. She'll always remain trapped inside the tiny mind of Herself.

I still hope Muggsy can dig deep and learn how to move forward with grace and a humble heart.

God gives gifts to the world, even small gifts like butterflies and birdsong and rainbows. He gives us the chance to learn to love and hug and cry and say "I'm sorry!". He's gives us the chance to make our own choices and mistakes and learn from them -- He's the little voice of conscience that stops Mad throwing kippers at traffic wardens and insurance salesmen. God gave us a particularly big and important gift but I'm pretty sure His name was Jesus, not Smuggsy. Jesus had loads that he could have been smug about; walking on water, raising the dead, being nice to taxmen... but what I see is a genuinely nice guy who tried to love everybody, even inherently smug smirky people.

Smug smirky people who can't to learn how to love anyone back.

PS:

Forgive me Lord for calling her Smirky McSmirkyface and for hoping she faceplants in horse poop, I admit I still have a lot of learning to do!

@jotarora tagged me for quarterly book recs! I’ve only finished three books so far this year, so instead I’ll be doing general book recs with two books that I’ve read this year

All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque, translated by A.W. Wheen (it’s in my top 5)

Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein (read for an adolescent literature class in college and I quickly fell in love with the characters and story structure)

Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut (read in 2022; I love the quietly sad tone and the fact that the central character almost never speaks)

American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin (finished in 2022; while I disagree with some of the authors’ opinions, the book as a whole is very thoroughly researched and very well-written)

The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin (read for school when I was in fourth grade; this book got me interested in the mystery genre, and it still holds up in adulthood)

Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer (my second favorite Foer novel after Everything Is Illuminated; this book had a stronger emotional effect on me)

Tagging @frodo-baggins, @lightpossession, @porgsinablanket, @smuggsy, @s-n-o-w-p-i-e-r-c-e-r, and anyone else who wants to do it. Feel free to do general book recs like I did :)
