“Like most sensitive souls, you already know you’re sensitive. You soak up others’ moods and desires like a sponge. You absorb sensation the way a paintbrush grasps each color it touches on a palette.”

— Victoria Erickson

[fandomsforall]

imagine the most meanspirited, unlikeable, rude, bitter, self centered, negative person you can think of. not a rapist, not a murderer, not an abuser. just a charmless, tactless, dyed in the wool asshole you wouldn't want to spend two seconds with. now assume they get sick, not with the flu, but with a long term, serious illness that limits their ability to provide for themself. a society in which that person is left to die alone because nobody likes them on a personal level is a failed society.

“So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.”

saw an elderly woman walking around with a tote bag whose design were the four AO3 fic category squares and she very excitedly asked if i was a reader or a writer bcs nobody else at the con had recognized it, and after telling her that i've been writing fic since fanfic.net, she solemnly nodded and explained that she'd been reading fic since "the days of personal websites" but that she only started writing fanfic when she was 47 and oh my god when i tell you that i genuinely teared up on the spot!!!!! like!!! HELL YEAH???? LITERALLY NEVER TOO OLD TO START WRITING. NEVER TOO OLD TO WRITE AND SHARE YOUR FIC.

her enthusiastic "i'm a very nice and bubbly person, i swear! but i love writing angst and major character death :)" nearly took me the fuck out.

icon. legend. diva. i wish her nothing but a kajillion million comments and kudos. i hope her fic updates crash AO3. i hope she knows i'm promoting her to my personal patron saint of AO3.

Would You Fall In Love With Me Again (Warrior Penelope AU)

ODYSSEUS: If that's true, could you do me a favor?

Just a moment of labor,

That would bring me some peace?

See that wedding chest,

It was once filled with plenty—

Could you see that it's emptied,

And take it far away from here...?

PENELOPE: How could you say this...

I had filled that wedding chest with my blood and sweat.

Wove linen from the purple fields where we first met.

Provisions for the night of our wedding—

Royal clothes and swaddling and bedding—

(Angrily:) If you've no more use for them,

Then I'll rip them seam from seam!

(Opens the chest—to find it filled with garments grown thin with long use)

ODYSSEUS: (Quietly behind her) Twenty years and we've worn through them,

Waiting for Penelope...

PENELOPE: (Stops, and then turns, hoarse:) Odysseus...

[fandomsforall]

We would have no "only my wife knew that, I guess that makes you her" or anything in warrior penelope au because we all know Odysseus would be over here SOBBING onto her in an instant. She has no time to be like "I'm not the woman you married" because Odysseus is making out with her sloppy style.

The suitors are also less surprised about Penelope coming back because theyve spent the last 20 years hearing her talked about "like" she was alive day in day out. Odysseus is still pathetic as fuck for his wife yall we need this man doing that fucking slide on his knees to her through the suitors.

[fandomsforall]

oh to have someone grab me by the collar and scream I WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU OVER AND OVER AGAIN I DON'T CARE HOW WHEN OR WHERE straight to my face. oh to have someone say i'm theirs — not to own, but to love, to care for — no matter how long it's been. oh to be loved perservingly. odysseus, you have suffered greatly, and yet you are the envy of all.

Writing Prompt #3005

"I didn't do anything to you!"

"No, but you did plenty to my friends. And that is more than enough."

[fandomsforall]

"You're... back?"

"From the dead!"

"But how?"

"Turns out I'm distantly related to the goddess of death and she's got a soft-spot for family."

I've tasted employment. I've tasted unemployment. I suggest money should start growing on trees so I can buy whatever I want.
