WIP game: Step Into The Daylight gives off all kinds of vibes.
Ah, my beloved concept, my beloathed story to actually write lmao
SITD is, at its core, about letting people love you. It's a Peterpatterlina fake dating au that kicks off with Reggie's mom getting remarried. Which is great! She deserves it.
The only issue is that Reggie doesn't have a date. And she's going to be worried about him the whole time instead of making the most of what should be her day.
(Mayyyybe they're a little codependent because she's always made too many sacrifices for him and his dad was an asshole. It's fine. Maybe he simply doesn't want her to sacrifice this, too.)
He's about to turn to Tinder or Craigslist for a fake date in a fit of desperation. Luke, with an admittedly-only-marginally-less-stupid idea, would rather have him take Julie (at least she's not a stranger who might murder him or--solocit him somehow, okay?!). He convinces her to go as Reggie’s fake girlfriend, and she agrees on the condition that they hash out any awkwardness up front, and that they all lay down rules as to what is and isn't okay.
Luke then convinces Reggie, but they hadn't counted on his mom remembering how solid of a couple Luke and Julie had always been. His mom thinks he didn't want to tell her who he was bringing because Julie's dating both of them, and gently chastises him ("I know what polyamory is Reginald, I'm hip.")
So then he's on the hook for bringing both Luke AND Julie.
The pining commences from there, with lots of hurt about how it's not actually real on all sides. Some rules are broken, and some hearts break with them. But then they actually talk like adults and put them back together and when the morning comes--
Luke and Julie are still there.
I do have some of it written, but it feels too--short? Rushed? Like I could definitely be exploring everything more and building it better. The opposite of what I'm having with the fearless fic, which is dragging. 😅

generated art is so ugly. it’s just so fucking ugly. and I don’t mean in a way that is technically displeasing to look at, because real breathing human people who pick up a stick and dip it in mud and smear it across some paper are also making things that are technically displeasing to look at, but it’s ugly because it is so unrelentingly soulless. it has no history, it has nothing to say. just gilded lips that open to vomit plastic shit. like even at its most juvenile and meaningless, art is still about peeling back the skin and being able to show a piece of the human alive underneath. generated art is feeding you microplastics when the heart craves raw meat, the connective tissue of me to you and you to me.

Thinking abt “combat I’m ready for combat” being directly followed by the lover house burning down and fearless. The lover house representing her whole life’s work and past selves. The implications

Imagine The Entity banned survivors having anything better than flashlights/flashbangs/pallets because she realized they'd probably fucking mob the killers during trials. She uses her stupid spidey-bs magic to prevent them from grabbing a fallen hook and just decking someone like Frank or Danny (especially Danny) in the skull with it.
Let's face it- we've all thought about it. The Entity's realm is literally a 1v4, but somehow nobody gets the idea to just pick up one of the various sharp or broken objects lying around and start whacking some psychos?
Nah.
I can easily see Bill or David being the first to try fighting with their fists, but unfortunately The Entity uses said bs-magic to buff the killers so they barely flinch and it only pisses them off.
But then they see the hook falls when a survivor is sacrificed, or the planks shatter into smaller, sharper sticks when a pallet is broken. All hell breaks loose.
Imagine the fucking surprise when someone from The Legion is interrupted mid-Frenzy because they got clotheslined by a fallen hook attached to its rope, stretched across a doorway at neck height. Frank left gasping for air on the ground while Meg mercilessly teabags him.
Imagine Ghostface being chased off from his usual routine of creeping around by David and Jake armed with sharpened sticks from the pallets. He actually gets nailed with one and is equally surprised and offended that he still can bleed.
It becomes such a problem that Tne Entity, an eldritch horror beyond comprehension, has to intervene because her pawns in her weird and sick sacrificial game are acting up in unexpected, unanticipated ways and physically wounding her magically buffed psychopaths.

James Potter loved Lily Evans from the moment he knew what it truly was to love anybody. But, in the end, it didn’t matter that James had declared that he would never love anyone else but Lily. Because he still lost her.
One year on from Halloween 1981, James is struggling to raise Harry alone whilst drowning in an impenetrable dark sea of grief, determined to never love again. Because, in his experience, to love, is to lose.
Luckily, Regulus Black knows quite a lot about loving and losing. And drowning, too, considering the fact that he survived the cave in 1979 and faked his death for two years, popping in to give Sirius the fright of his life on Halloween.
And, consequently, showing up just in time for the events that followed. The shattered remnants of people that the war left behind.
Maybe Regulus will be able to show James that it’s okay to extinguish the first love flame, whilst simultaneously giving him the parenting help he is too ashamed to ask for. And, in return, maybe James will manage to convince Regulus that love isn’t something you earn, something that always has a catch.
Maybe they just needed one another all along, to take that step into the daylight.

Fic asks: 7, 14, 19
7. How many ideas for fics do you have right now?
In terms of ideas that haven't made it to the WIP stage...there's the Reggie/Julie nostalgic pining story based on the 1, something where Eddie and Chrissy meet at the Halloween party in S2 of Stranger Things, maybe some sort of Reggie POV to round off the sunflower series, and a chaotic Modern Harringrove/Hellcheer story where Chrissy is tutoring Steve but he doesn't want anyone to know so everyone thinks they're together and Eddie and Billy decide to retaliate by pretending to date and make them jealous...so at least four! Including WIPS...it'd be eight (two of them are co-written so I'm focusing more on the other two atm)
14. If you could see one of your fics adapted into a visual medium, such as comic or film, which fan fic would you pick?
So the story that immediately comes to mind is This Moment Is Ours To Own, because it feels like something that could've happened in the show if they weren't shunning away from the OT3 vibes of Edge of Great/Peterpatterlina in general, and a few commenters told me they could picture it very clearly. Simply put, I'd like to see it, lol
19. Give us a small teaser from one of your WIPs.
From Step Into The Daylight, aka the Peterpatterlina Fake Dating AU that I seriously hope to actually write more of/finish someday:
"He's about to put an ad on Craigslist or Tinder for a fake date and he's going to get murdered or—or solicited, if he does that—" 
"And your solution is to solicit me?" she asks wryly, crossing her arms as Luke splutters. 
"No! No, of course not. It'd still be fake. You would just have to—pretend to date him for a few days. It'll be easy, since you're not a stranger, and it wouldn't give us genuine reasons to worry about him, you know? You'd never kill Reggie."
She arches her eyebrows even as she softens her stance. 
"What makes you so sure?" 
Luke levels her with a look that screams well, duh.
"You've always had a soft spot for him. Don't deny it, he's the only one of us who could ever get away with anything when we first met and your favorite word was boundaries. I remember." 
"That's because he's Reggie! Everyone has a soft spot for Reggie. If you don't have a soft spot for him, you're just an asshole."
