Hello! Sorry for the anon, I don't have a tumblr (castle_yonder on Insta). I was wondering if you have a policy around folks making physical binds of your fics? Strictly for personal use, or gifting to a friend.

Hello! I have no policy other than please show me pictures if you do it!

[likearecordbb]

Weird question, but do you have any inspiration pics for Andrew’s hairstyle and tattoos from like water? I’m having a hard time envisioning what the hair slicked back but short on the sides would look like.

Maybe like these?

Hello friends, I just had some surprise bills come up and will be needing funding, so I am opening up my commissions!

I know my pricing is a bit weird compared to how people usually do art commissions, but I wanted to make it a bit easier for people who are poor (like me) to actually commission something if they so desire. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions about my price brackets, my process, or to get a quote!

I can accept payment over venmo, google pay, or paypal. and you can contact me here (@nerdzewordart) or at sresnerart@gmail.com

I reserve the right to decline any commission, for any reason.

If you like a drawing I have already done, I do have a society6 page, and am more than happy to add art upon request.

(Please reblog to help a homie out!)

For the last time Neil is not oblivious he's just so busy playing 5d chess with everyone he meets that the concept of regular chess baffles and bores him. Matt what do you mean I should hook up with a cheerleader can't you see I'm busy waging psychological warfare on a Frenchman.

It's true that like once you start having ambiguous gender feelings it's a little bit of a free for all like yes I'm a woman but I'm also male and I like being called a boy but I'm not a man like sorry I'm on Advanced Gender nuance now but also my gender is that stuffed fox on a chair.

Just so y’all know: I can’t speak for every other fic author but I can say that I remember when people leave me kind comments. I recognize your urls and/or usernames on AO3. I remember you and sometimes in writing my fics I think to myself, “Oh, I hope this person sees this because they liked x in this other fic I did.”

Not only that—I go back and reread comments when I’m feeling low. I look at tags and reblogs and asks and wish I could hold them in my hand like a note from a friend on an old, torn piece of notebook paper.

Your comments have so much more impact than you know. So thanks to those who use the comment section to spread love and encouragement. We appreciate you.

By “several thousand words” he means 18,367 because I probably couldn’t come in under 5k if my life depended on it.

Look at how fucking adorable Neil is 🥺🥺.

*twirling hair around finger* So. there's this AU.

Andrew is a comedian at a club where Neil is a bartender.

aaaaaaaand @likearecordbb is already several thousand words into writing it so we can gush and whine together <3 i have maybe made a lot of🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 faces about Neil in it

andrew: he tells me he trusts me and that he doesn’t want to lose me

andrew: he’s real, not a hallucination

andrew: but then he forgets to mention the countdown he’s got until he’ll be killed by his father

andrew: and look, i know i’m not perfect but at least i’m not sending these mixed fucking signals, that infuriating little-

Hiii, I just read Quicksand and I’m completely fascinated by it, I had so much fun reading. Just checking, are u still writing it or is it unfinished?

Thankss💜

Hello and thank you!! I am 3400 words into Chapter 7! It’s proving to be a little trickier to write, but I anticipate posting it by Monday, or Tuesday depending on my beta!

[likearecordbb]

OMG I AM DIE MY NEW FAVORITE WRITER DREW MY BOY.

sooo..... Likearecord's fic quicksand has done me in.

Neil's prom bathroom selfie thirst pic..... psychic damage

A new one. It’s a mirror selfie: Neil in what is obviously a hotel bathroom, the clean blue tile and wall-mounted hair dryer a clear giveaway. His hair is disheveled, the tips visibly damp with sweat where they curl against his forehead. There’s high color on his cheeks, probably from the heat of all the bodies packed into whatever generic hotel ballroom they rented, and maybe from dancing, or from alcohol, or all three. Does Neil dance? If he does, Andrew wants to watch. A lot.
