Ten Random Lines
Rules: pick any ten of your fics, scroll to the midpoint, pick a line (or three) and share it. Then tag ten people. I was tagged by @scottxlogan Thank you for the tag!
I’m tagging: @mischief-and-tea-by-the-sea @scottxlogan (no pressure if you don't wanna do this again) and everyone else who wants to have a go
I lol-ed because I only have 12 fics up, and it wasn't much of a headache to pick. Here's a guide if you want to skip or zoom in on a particular ship/fandom-
1-4: VanDieter (Army of the Dead)
5: DigShot (Arrow)
6-7: FrostIron (The Avengers)
8-10: WolveSilver (X-Men)
Here goes under the cut!
Fifth time’s the charm (VanDieter)
Dieter knocks, taking an expectant step back as he stands outside Vanderohe’s room, smelling a little too fruity after his shower, beaming as he thinks back to the events of the past hour, where Vanderohe had most definitely kissed him, before instructing him to come over anytime he’s ready.
It was something he could do forever, Dieter contemplates while waiting. He never felt love quite like this before, and Dieter was sure that apart from Vanderohe, he might have really only been in love just once.
“Are you always this happy?” Vanderohe says with amusement, as he opens the door for Dieter.
2. On the edge of the precipice (VanDieter)
Guz and Chambers were menaces, honest to god— which was probably, and unfortunately, one of the many reasons why they got along with Diet like a house on fire.
3. A series of firsts (VanDieter)
“We could make this a thing,” Vanderohe says, drawing circles with this thumb around the inside of Dieter’s wrist.
“Are you a mind reader now?” Dieter catches himself smiling for what must be the thousandth time since the day started, “I would very much like for this to be a thing”.
4. How to stage an intervention: Chambers’ Edition (VanDieter)
Sometimes the muted resonance shatters and Dieter resonates. Feels everything from his heartbeat to the smell of rain, to the comfort and thrill of the night. Gives as much as he gets.
Somedays, like today, the endorphins consumed him. The space in his chest light like it was floating outside of him.
5. New Beginnings (DigShot)
A couple of weeks after Oliver and Felicity’s return to Star City found Diggle at the end of his wits. The entire Ghost situation was a clusterfuck; not that he expected any less, but he couldn’t say that he had expected, nor was he adequately equipped for, everything that the situation landed on his plate. Bloodlust. The dead coming back to life. Magic. Most of all, a brother he didn’t know anymore.
Oliver had encouraged him to try. Diggle didn’t know what to make of the unsolicited advice. It might have been more convincing had Oliver not felt like a bed of roses fresh out of his honeymoon. Lawton had conversely blessed him with an unimpressed look that said: he was stupid for even considering; a calculated, rational conclusion, the only one which the darker side of the assassin was capable of. But just because it was sound didn’t mean that Diggle had to like it. The deliberation had escalated into a heated exchange of words, a scuffle, and finally, to him getting the cold shoulder. Diggle pointedly chose not to spare any thought about why it affected him the way it did.
6. Controlled Chaos (FrostIron)
“Dum-E!” Tony’s indignant squawk thankfully derailed that train of commentary. Tilting his head, Loki notes that the said bot was now pressed against him following its close pursuit of them in their tour of its home. “Don’t antagonize Loki like that, god knows he’s more likely to actually dismantle you and use you for knife practice”
“Hardly,” Loki clarifies, unable to stop his right eye from twitching at the notion of using something so sentient for knife practice of all things. Such an exercise hardly bode any good results for the wielder— something he decided Tony strictly didn’t need to know.
7. Home is Where the Heart is (FrostIron)
“Please say you don’t wanna bail, Houdini,” the said menace was now looking at him with wide pleading eyes. “I was promised three days of you waltzing me around this place,” Likely the widest he could possibly manage.
Meddling, sentimental fool . Loki thinks with an affectionate huff.
“That insult had better not be meant for me,” his lover complains without missing a beat, nose scrunched up in mock offence.
Loki arches an eyebrow in confusion. He most certainly had not said that out loud.
“Oh c’mon Lokes,” the genius has the audacity to roll his eyes at Loki’s confusion, “every time you huff, there’s an insult to be found in there somewhere,”
The man made a fair point.
8. Two Halves of the Same Whole (WolveSilver)
Where Wolverine expects pain, there is nothing.
For a moment, Logan is confused. When the confusion clears, he notices the silver-haired mutant braced above him by the side of the remote temple that he’s been spending the better half of his day trying to reach.
Logan has only seen Quicksilver in passing. He’s only ever offered the younger mutant a nod of acknowledgment when they cross paths. He doesn’t know anything beyond the fact that Quicksilver has superspeed, talks way too much, and his father is a grade-A asshole. It somehow makes the current situation where Quicksilver is starting to slump over him, a gaping hole in his side, much, much worse.
9. Life in Technicolor (WolveSilver)
Not being able to catch a break proves itself to be a very much persistent sentiment when ‘lousy co-sleeper' turns out to be a gross understatement.
Quicksilver, the one that’s 50 years too young, mutters something in his sleep before flipping over with vigor and kicking him in the shin. Logan grunts in frustration, stirring for the umpteenth time since he’s said his goodnights to the speedster. It isn’t something he’d ordinarily do, but this Quicksilver is nothing if not insistent.
This Quicksilver is also much more fidgety compared to what Logan’s ordinarily used to, and he hasn’t caught a decent wink of sleep yet.
10. Ritalin (WolveSilver)
“Logan?”
“Yeah, Pete?”
“Are you tired of me?”
“What— no, of course not,” Logan says slowly, postcoital lull shattering as Peter’s question sends a wave of alarm spiking all the way up to his throat. So help him, because he had thought that they were doing well enough, and now it appears that Logan’s most certainly not doing something right. It can’t be the sex that’s lacking, so perhaps it’s the number of dates they’ve been on, or perhaps the type of attention that’s the problem. Logan decides that the easiest way to find out is to ask. “Elaborate. What brought this on?”

💕 self-love time! talk about which ones of YOUR creations (edits, artworks, fanfics) you like the most then send to other creators to do the same 💕
Thank you so much for the ask! @scottxlogan
First of, I just wanted to share that I've been trying to get back into doing fanart. Although I've been utterly bummed out by the hustle and bustle that is life, it's totally in my plans to create and share (more) fanart here :)
As for fanfics, I adore all my fics! I only have 12 since I started writing late last year, but I love all of them wholeheartedly. That said, VanDieter has always been special to me as it has been many things (i.e. the catalyst for me to jump headfirst into writing, and I channel so many things through Dieter that it hurts), so it makes total sense that I have a soft spot for them.
If you ever get the urge to read a fic that's an AOTD fix-it, with a whole lot of domestic fluff and a wee bit of adventure, feel free to try it:
I'm also REALLY REALLY invested in Wolverine x Quicksilver these days- a pair which I've been writing for as part of the Marvel Rare Pair Bingo- and it almost as though my old hyperfixation came back, smacked me in the face, and it's kind of, here to stay?
Anyway, somehow I've written a soulmate AU that's a unique blend of feelings, which also probably contains some of my most interesting lines and styles to date.
If you're dying for more WolveSilver content (like me), or you feel like reading something light with these two (how they fit together with their contrasting personalities and whatnot) feel free to try it as well!
