Fic Title: Rain

Characters: Sister Beatrice, Ava Silva

Relationships: Sister Beatrice/Ava Silva

Tags: Angst, Angst with a Happy Ending, Character Study, Inspired by Fanart, Internalized Homophobia, Implied/Referenced Homophobia, Pining, First Kiss, Canon Compliant, Switzerland era, Blood mention, Mention of a canon character death

Summary:

After years of slowly breaking down, Beatrice starts to believe that this is just the way she's supposed to be. It isn't until she meets Ava that she realizes that healing–and maybe even love–are possibilities for her.

But how does someone so broken love someone so whole?

Notes:

This fic was inspired by one of my favorite pieces of Avatrice fanart by @blueeriver and the song they said inspired their art, "Neptune" by Sleeping At Last.

It IS true that being on here gives you a tumblr accent. This morning my mother asked me something and i replied "i don't know i've never heard these words in that order" and she nearly choked laughing. It wasn't even that funny

#tumblr

[wraithofwords]

“how dare you say we piss on the poor” is perhaps THEE best piece of vernacular to come out of tumblr dot com in the past decade. along with “what were you doing at the devils sacrament” (cheeky. inspired. relevant in every context) and “harold, they're lesbians” (timeless. funny as hell. gay)

Were you named after anyone? Nope, I picked my name just because I like it.

Do you have kids? No, and I don't plan to. I can barely take care of myself most days, much less a child.

What sports have you played/do you play? Did cross country running, cross country skiing, lacrosse, and track in high school. I still work out but I don't really have any sports as an adult. I'd like to get back into skiing, but it's expensive and time-consuming.

Do you use sarcasm? Frequently lol.

First thing you notice about people? Which pronouns they use for me and if they hesitate trying to guess.

What is your eye color? Blue.

Scary movies or happy endings? Happy endings!

Any talents? Writing and Excel spreadsheets.

To put it very bluntly.

You will always make a better impact helping people who need it than trying to hurt people you think deserve it.

The secret wish is to write a fanfic that someone loves so much they make fan art of it, or to create a drawing that someone creates an entire fic based off of it.

Hey btw, here's a piece of life advice:

If you know what you'd have to do to solve a problem, but you just don't want to do it, your main problem isn't the problem itself. Your problem is figuring out how to get yourself to do the solution.

If your problem is not eating enough vegetables, the problem you should be solving is "how do I make vegetables stop being yucky". If your problem is not getting enough exercise, the problem you should be solving is "how do I make exercise stop sucking ass". You're not supposed to just be doing things that are awful and suck all the time forever, you're supposed to figure out how to make it stop being so awful all the time.

I used to hate wearing sunscreen because it's sticky and slimy and disgusting and it feels bad and it smells bad, so I neglected to wear it even if I needed to. Then I found one that isn't like that, and doesn't smell and feel gross. Problem solved.

There is no correct way to live that's just supposed to suck and feel bad all the time. You're allowed to figure out how to make it not suck so bad.

I was debating pre- and post- smartphone existentialism with an older gentleman today and he stopped part way through and said “Why are you a security guard? Why aren’t you teaching this at some college somewhere?” And I didn’t know what to say so I went with “Well I used to make art but nobody pays an artist”

#human things #capitalism

[wraithofwords]

anyway the actual point of fandom is to inspire each other. reading each other's fics and admiring each other's art and saying wow i love this and i feel something and i want to invoke this in other people, i want to write a sentence that feels like a meteor shower, i want to paint a kiss with such tenderness it makes you ache, i want to create something that someone else somewhere will see it and think oh, i need to do that too, right now. i am embracing being a corny cunt on main to say inspiring each other is one of the things humanity is best at and one of the things fandom is built for and i think that's beautiful

#writing a narratively interesting story #often means being very VERY mean to your characters #'oh you have this terrible horrible deep seated fear that i gave you? #what if i made you face it in the most twisted heart wrenching way possible for someone else's entertainment' #writing

[wraithofwords]

i think one of the most important things you learn about making connections with others is that a significant portion of the time people just do not know theyre doing what theyre doing
