Hi. Things are bleak, I know that. I know that we paid for Trump's last term with blood and it is likely the price will be blood again.

But listen to me. LISTEN.

You do not have to force yourself to witness horrors as an act of activism. It is not a form of activism. You can put your phone down, you can block that horrific video. We cannot win if you cannot fight and you will not be able to fight if you are hopeless.

Do not let them guilt you into this. People who are exhausted are easier to walk over. Take care of yourself, find community where you find joy.

x files studies but this time I tired to achieve that VHS feeling. I very vaguely remember watching some episodes as a kid, and I think this is as close as I've ever got to recreating that memory of a small, grainy tv in a dark room

hi Sara! No. 8 (the back hug) for Alex/Henry please <3

(Hey there! Thanks for this one, I have a bit of post-canon domestic fluff for you! hug ficlet prompts; read all the hug ficlets)

8. The back hug.

Alex is in the kitchen, standing over a pot of sauce with Otis Redding playing on his bluetooth speakers, so he doesn’t hear the front door open. David, however, leaps up from where he’s been sitting hopefully at Alex’s feet and skitters away. A moment later, a loud groan echoes down the hall, and Alex smiles to himself.

It’s become a routine, on Henry’s long days at the shelter—Alex takes the time to make something a little more involved for dinner, the process itself as much as an indulgence as the meal at the end. Henry will come home and kick off his shoes, groaning as he stretches, then bend down and give David a scratch behind the ears. Alex has only seen this part a couple of times, because usually he remains in the kitchen and waits for Henry to join him. Two wine glasses wait on the kitchen island, and Henry will take his time to peruse their slightly-embarrassing wine collection before he selects a bottle to open.

Alex doesn’t turn at the sound of footsteps behind him, or the pop of the bottle. The anticipation has become part of the pleasure. The click of the wine glasses as Henry sets one next to him by the stove. And then—

Arms slide around his waist and broad shoulders cover his as Henry plasters himself against Alex’s back. A trio of soft kisses pressed from his collar to the tender spot behind his ear, warm breath washing against his skin. Then Henry’s chin hooks over his shoulder and a contented hum rumbles through his body, so low that Alex feels it more than hears it.

“Welcome home, baby,” Alex says as he glances over at his boyfriend. “How was your day?”

“Good. Tiring. Better, now,” Henry murmurs back.

He won’t move this position until he’s forced to do so, usually because Alex has to do something in the dinner prep that’ll be impeded by having a limpet attached to his back. Then he’ll take a stool with his glass of wine, remaining in the kitchen so they can chat about their respective days until dinner is ready.

It’s routine. Almost boring.

Alex wouldn’t change a thing.

A shy and faltering Alex, lost for words for once and a besotted Henry... what a sweet scene!🥰😍💖

knee deep in the cushion of your couch and we're making out, is it casual now?

it was, in fact, not casual.

fic bind of the full spectrum of human emotion by me :)

hello friends! i have been slowly learning how to bind, a real journey! after binding False Dichotomy by chamel, i took the leap and bound my longfic, proposal au!

it has been very satisfying to immortalize something i wrote!!! i had a lot of fun making the typeset and becoming ungovernable in Canva, from the covers to the endpapers to the bookmarks. canva pro...dangerous game...

the cover may be minimalist...but inside i am hiding many Secrets...mechanical bulls...copious amounts of introspection...riding jokes...a marriage of convenience...snarky henry...😏

big thank you to @sanvcnblvd for letting me include the inside cover art (here!), @seanchaidh7 for the cowboy alex art (here!), and @smugvillanelle for the lovely blurb on the front <3 love y'all!!!

the chapter headers were so fun to make, it was my first time getting a bit more creative with the design of the typeset and i really like how it turned out.

also love an exposed spine and getting to see the stitching! a bit different compared to the hardcover binds, but i am a fan! MAJOR respect for people who can make hardcovers, i absolutely cannot. the amount of detail and glue involved...i know my limits fjaksldjflkasdf.

i made two bookmarks, double sided. this is one, the other is secret and will be sent with the binds as a fun surprise for my betas :)

anyway. it feels like the end of a very long, cathartic journey. this fic was the first thing i started writing in this fandom, and i continue to be very proud of it and incredibly happy that people enjoy it :) this fandom and writing and putting myself out there has gotten me through a rough year, and i am so so grateful for everyone i have met in my wonderful community!!! thank you for reading, engaging, and supporting. much love!!!!

xoxo roop
