My perfectionist self, still on her first (Perfectly-crafted) paragraph after two hours: I am a horrible writer, how could I even possibly think this could ever be good enough to show to other people, why am I such a failure–
My feral self who doesn’t give a shit anymore, on her twelfth page of literal garbage in thirty minutes that she can always come back and edit later: *Removing earbud* wat

Hey, everyone! Due to the sudden influx of viewers on AO3, the site has had to modify some things, including the experience of guest users and how hits are counted on the site. This is not the fault of AO3 (they’re doing their best to keep things up and running for all of us), but if you’re a guest user following stories on AO3, PLEASE make sure to leave kudos for your authors to see. We understand it can be difficult to get an account on AO3 (probably more now with COVID-19 leaving people in their homes), but sudden drops in statistics can be inexplicable and disheartening.
Keep your heads up, people. We’re gonna get through this.

I've had this happen a couple of times on Wattpad and it made my entire day brighter ❤
the most flattering thing in the world is when you get the "you got kudos!" email from ao3 and then you look at it and you got kudos from the same person on all your works because it means they read the first thing and thought it was good enough that they read everything else you've written and liked that too.

Portal Oneshots - Detroit (Crossover)
The rain was was warm on her shoulders, a welcome occurrence after so long in a place without a sky.
Chell shut her eyes, tilted her head back, and imagined all the dirt and grime and gel residue that had accumulated on her clothes and person all washing away, left behind to be (hopefully) forgotten on the streets of the city.
She still wore her boots and jumpsuit, now tattered and scuffed from the road, as she hadn’t been able to procure suitable replacements. She had no money, no identification, and people were (understandably, if inconveniently) leery of the stranger with the spring-heeled boots. It didn’t help that orange was a prison colour, though the dirt and tears probably screamed “homeless” (which, she supposed, she was, at least until she could reconnect with someone—anyone she knew, or who knew her, perhaps a friend or relative).
Her pace was slow, no destination in mind, at least for the moment. She took the time to observe her surroundings, though a part of her—long-buried but undeniably present, perhaps from her forgotten childhood—knew she should have been more wary of walking alone through an urban neighbourhood at night.
Too late she noticed the footsteps, heavy and deliberate, felt an arm around her neck and something cold in her back.
A gun, her brain supplied.
“Alright, you know the drill…” Said a male voice, mockingly, and she stumbled backward as its owner maneuvered her into an alleyway.
“I don’t have anything.” It was the truth—and the first time she’d truly spoken to another human being since her escape, though she’d encountered many on her hike from the upper peninsula. Most of them had ignored her, or regarded her with apprehension, even annoyance as she’d tried to flag someone—anyone down on the road.
Her captor scoffed and let out a laugh. “Oh, you wanna do this the hard way? Huh?!” The gun jabbed harder as the volume and pitch of his voice went up. Ice cold panic rushed through Chell’s veins. Her limbs were unresponsive, as if someone else had wrestled away control of her mainframe, and she felt like a spectator in her own body. She’d gotten the best of a homicidal supercomputer! Why would she suddenly freeze up now?!
“Please, I-I really don’t have anything. I—”
She was on the ground, stunned, when out of nowhere a loud whoop-whoop drew an expletive from her assailant, who scrambled away into the night. Two car doors slammed, and a second voice yelled, “Stop! Detroit Police!”
Chell blacked out.
———————
So uh… Hank is in this too he boops the siren. Connor runs after the guy. If there’s any interest I kinda wanna continue this.

Portal Oneshots: Attempt #1
(For Valentines Day)
Rick pinched the bridge of his nose and let out a long sigh. “Explain it to me one more time.”
“R-right…” Wheatley put his hands together and tried to regain his composure. “So, I did everything we talked about…”
“Right…”
“I booked us a table…”
“Okay…”
“The waiter came with the desserts…”
“Okay…”
“She thought the chocolate cake was absolutely delicious, by the way…”
Rick tried not to roll his eyes. “Okay…”
“…a-and I waited for her to find the ring in it, but she didn’t. She completely finished it off. The whole piece. Just…” He snapped his fingers, “…gone!”
“Okay…”
“I thought, shit, what if she’s swallowed it? And I was panicking because how am I supposed to tell her that? ‘I’m so sorry, but I was trying to propose to you and you probably just ate the ring’…”
“Okay?”
“…so anyway, I played it cool and took a bite of my cake…”
“Okay?”
“…and I swallowed it.”
“You swallowed it?”
“I swallowed it.”
Rick blinked, incredulous. “You swallowed the ring?”
Wheatley nodded, suddenly looking like he was about to cry. “I g-guess they got the cakes mixed up…”
Rick barely hid a guffaw, then scrambled to look serious before he turned back to his friend. “I think we’d better go to the emergency room.”

💐 Does your OC like flowers? What are their favourites? Do they keep a garden of some sort? What flowers would they use in a flower crown? (and if you like, research the meanings behind those flowers!)
🌼 Write a short drabble from your OCs POV meeting their LI (or if they don’t have a love interest, their best friend. If you don’t want to do a drabble, describe their first meeting instead!)
🥀 Has your OC ever been hurt by someone they love? Ever been betrayed? Abused? Attacked? Give me the angst! (if you’d like, write a short drabble about it!)

Thank you to everyone who’s shown support—and is still showing support, even in 2019! I love all of you! ❤️
