#29th birthday last saturday

[anagram-for-mongo]

That was certainly a week

[grimaussiewitch]

I hope season 4 of the life series is long. Why? Because I want an episode to come out on my birthday.

[jerzwriter]

I do. Me too.

Ethan & Kaycee

Ainna strikes again! How we give her a few little pieces and an idea, and she just brings it to life will never cease to amaze me! In my HC, Ethan & Kaycee's wedding day was last week, July 29th. It's a simple, informal affair held at a beach house they had rented on the Cape. It's also a surprise wedding. With guests thinking they're coming to a surprise birthday/engagement party for Kaycee, but the guests are the ones in for the surprise. Here's a little more about their big day. I'll be adding to it over time.

I hope you enjoy this little fic about how they spent the morning of their big day!

Book: Open Heart (Post Series)

Pairing: Ethan Ramsey x F!MC (Kaycee MacClennan)

Rating: Teen

Words: 1,400

Summary: They didn't want a lot of fuss, so they planned their "surprise wedding" in less than a month. On the morning of the big day, they remember they forgot to iron out a couple of details, but it all works out in the end.

A/N: @choicesmonthlychallenge (Throwback to February, Day 12, Marriage).

Kaycee peered out the bedroom window, perplexed to see the beach nearly deserted on a perfect July day. The homes on this part of the Cape owned the beaches that served as their backyards. Still, she and Ethan had had rented this property before, and on a Saturday in July, the neighbors were usually out in force. She let the curtain fall from her hand and shook her head.

“Ethan, what did you do?” she laughed to herself.

July 29th had arrived. She couldn’t say finally, as she and Ethan picked this day less than a month before, but it was hard to believe it was here. In just over an hour, they’d greet their guests, who would learn they weren’t sitting in traffic on Route 6 for Kaycee’s surprise birthday party. No, the surprise was all for them because today was their wedding day.

With the exception of her parents, Alan and Naveen, no one knew. They only caved and told them the week before, and now, she was glad they did. The four of them were happily attending to last-minute details – which she was convinced included threatening the neighbors to stay inside until the ceremony ended – leaving her to quietly enjoy her last hours as a single woman.  

Also, she couldn’t have imagined getting ready for this day without her Mom. Rose had helped her into her wedding gown. Then she presented her with the pearl drop earrings she wore on her own wedding day, and Kaycee’s grandmother had worn on hers many years before. Even though Kaycee was going for a natural look, makeup still had to be reapplied after that. Now, with Rose off to ensure every flower was in its perfect place, Kaycee stood before the full-length mirror in her room, spinning in circles and watching the sheer, delicate lace of her gown dancing around her. Time spent planning be damned, she was allowed to say... the day was finally here!

A knock on the door startled her. She was pretty sure it was Rose making her way back, but just to be safe, she asked.

“Who is it?”

“It’s your future husband,” Ethan declared, a smile present in his voice. “I’m just checking to make sure you haven’t come to your senses and run away.”

“Hmmm, it was a close call,” she laughed through the door. “But Naveen stopped by and put this ankle monitor on me, so you’re safe.”

“Thank God for Naveen,” he chuckled. “You know, since Tobias still has no idea that he’s going to be my best man, I could change my mind and give the honor to Naveen.”

“Now, Ethan Ramsey! What has Tobias done for you to consider taking his title away?”

“Nothing. That’s just it; he’s done nothing, whereas Naveen prevented you from becoming a runaway bride.”

“Ethan,” she laughed. “If I was going to run away, it would have been long ago. You’re safe with me.”

Their conversation had all been in good fun, but those last four words left Ethan choked up. You’re safe with me.

“I know that,” he said with a cracked voice. “And I hope you know you’re safe with me, too.”

Kaycee leaned against the wooden door, a tender smile on her face. “Of course, I do, Ethan. Of course, I do.”

“Good,” he grinned. “And I heard two I do’s there. Excellent work, Rookie. Get practice in because I’m going to need you to say that one more time very soon.”  

“Oh, I plan on it,” she reassured.

“So, we never really discussed it.. but when do I get to see you? It won’t be when you’re walking down the aisle, will it?”

“Considering we’ll be greeting our guests together, I think that’s a no. See, these are the things we would have ironed out if we had gone a more traditional route.”

“Any regrets?” he asked.

“Not one.”

“Good. But that puts me right back where I started. When do I get to see you?”

“Well... nothing is stopping me from opening this door right now.”

“All right, but shouldn’t I go grab the photographer? I believe it’s called a first look shot or something like that.”

“You could,” she replied with a question in her voice. “But I’m not of the belief that every moment has to be shared or recorded. Some of them should just be lived, and I want to share this with you and you alone. Is that all right?”

“All right?” He enthused. “I think I just fell in love with you a little more.”

“All right,” she beamed, bouncing on the balls of her feet with excitement. “Let me step back, and I’ll tell you when to open the door so we can see each other at the same time.”

Ethan’s heart began to race with anticipation. “Sounds good, but don’t make it long.”

“The room isn’t that big, Ethan,” she teased as she fluffed her skirt and positioned her lace train around her. “OK,” she beamed. “You can come in.”

His hand was already on the knob, and the door opened before Kaycee could complete the words. A puff of air escaped him, and he visibly stepped back when his eyes fell upon her.

“Kaycee...”  he gasped, completely overwhelmed. “You look...” he wanted to say so much, but words truly escaped him.

“So, is it appropriate?” she giggled.

A bright smile spread on his lips, and he quickly closed the distance between them before taking his bride into his arms.

“You are breathtaking,” he breathed into her ear. “I knew you would be, but,” he stepped back with tears in his eyes. “Nothing could prepare me for this.”

“So... it’s definitely appropriate,” she grinned. 

“I’m glad to see that getting married will have no impact on you being the wiseass I fell in love with.”

“Oh, never!” she assured. Moving closer, she smoothed out his lapel as Ethan wrapped his arm around the small of her back, pulling her tightly against him. “You look gorgeous, too,” Kaycee whispered. “Remind me how I got this lucky?”

“You,” he asked, lifting her hand over her head and giving her a gentle spin. His eyes drinking in every inch of her. “The lucky one is me, and I won’t hear any arguments.”

“We’re both lucky,” she smiled.

“OK, I’ll accept that one!”

“So,” she questioned. “We have a little time to kill before guests begin to arrive. What would you like to do?”

Ethan smirked, leaving little to the imagination. “If I did what I want to do right now, I promise, we wouldn’t be in any condition to greet our guests anytime soon.”

“We will save that for tonight, dear.”

“Yes, and we’ll be kicking people out early! But what would you like to do now?” he asked.

“I know! Why don’t we take a quick walk along the beach? I know it’s a small guest list, but even so... once everyone arrives, I won’t have you to myself until the end of the day. So, want to take a quick walk, just you and me?”

“I’d love that,” he smiled. “But you need one thing before we go.”

“I do. What’s that?”

Ethan stepped back into the hall, returning with Kaycee’s bridal bouquet in his hand. 

“I think this will complete the picture.”

Kaycee held the bouquet to her nose, inhaling the beautiful fragrance of the soft pink and white roses and peonies in her bouquet. 

“It’s so beautiful,” she sang.

“It is, but it pales in comparison to you.”

Kaycee reached up and pulled him into a tender kiss. 

“Aren’t we supposed to wait until the officiant tells us to do that?” He asked.

“I won’t tell if you won’t.”

“Come on,” Ethan insisted as he took her hand. “Let’s take that walk so we’ll be back in time to greet everyone. Until then, I’m showing you off to everyone on the beach.”

“Speaking of that... who do you plan to show me off to? The starfish? Can you explain why none of the neighbors are on the beach on this gorgeous summer day?”

“Briberly,” he deadpanned. “Bribery may have had something to do with it. I also told them they could join us at the reception later.”

“I knew you were behind it!” she laughed as they approached the door.

But just before they reached it, Ethan stopped and turned to Kaycee, gently taking her face in his hands.

“I love you, Kaycee. I love you more than I could ever express, and I hope you know that.’

Reaching up, she gently squeezed his hand.

“I do. And I love you every bit as much. I hope you know that.”

“I do,” he smiled.

“Thank goodness,” she grinned as they stepped outside. “I do...now you’re practicing, too!”

So as we all know, with the exception of last year, the Rayllum corner has a habit of having a Rayllum month in July, on account of both our kiddos’ birthdays falling within two weeks of each other (the 15th and 31st respectively). However, with S5 Ocean also dropping sometime in July, I thought it’d be prudent to schedule something more tentative. 

The technical dates I’m considering are June 17th to July 1st, featuring two weeks of Rayllum angst -- I mean goodness! However, I could see merit in pushing it back further if we get a later month release date. Like previous Rayllum month events, it’s two days for each prompt, giving you more of a chance to enjoy all the lovely fanworks as well as prepare your own! Fanart, fanfiction, headcanon lists, analysis, prediction posts, rewatches, playlists, and anything and everything else is more than welcome! I did my best to tailor the prompts to the specific post-S4, pre-S5 hype, but as always these are suggestions! Anything that fits the “s5 speculation” Rayllum vibe is 100% encouraged.

Sunday June 17th: Flowers 

Tuesday June 19th: Possession

Thursday June 21st: Reconciliation

Saturday June 23rd: Swords / Coins

Monday June 25th: First Kiss (Again)

Wednesday June 27th: End of the World

Friday June 29th: Water

NSFW and more explicit/violent content is definitely welcome so long as it is tagged accordingly. While there are lots of possible angst factors to explore in the upcoming season - TTM fallout, angsting over Runaan, dark magic, and possession - fluff is also very very welcome! Tags for the event will be #Rayllum week 2023 (with spaces) and #Rayllum’s bad vibes rodeo (with spaces).

If you have any questions my ask box is open and I hope we all have a lovely time creating, planning, and enjoying this final S5 hurrah!

2023 Wrap

Since there was no Tumblr year in review this time around, I made my own! Ok, full disclosure, I was already going to make my own.

Law’s End (See note below)

Word Warriors (see below)

Cordonian Royal Airlines (see below)

Law’s End: I call this a project, not just a new story because it was supposed to be a bit more far-reaching than just a story with character profiles, mock news articles, and multiple episodes. So far there are two character profiles (graphics for that by @harleybeaumont), one article, and many fabulous extras made by @secretaryunpaid. I am working on wrapping up episode one. Once the question of who killed Trent is answered, episode two will move on to a new mystery, while still focusing on the relationships between the main characters.

Word Warriors: Again, this is more than just a blog. It’s a Discord group, live discussions, a peer support group, and a critique group. The blog itself provides a list of writing resources and advice in addition to information about the Discord group, the live discussion schedule, and notes from past sessions.

Cordonia Royal Airlines: This is more of a collaborative project than a series. There will eventually be images posted as well as drabbles, one-shots, and chapters written by other contributors. (That’s the plan anyway.)

Personal Milestones Passed:

1,000 followers (now over 1,400 but waiting to hit 1,500 to post it)

1,000,000 words posted on Tumblr.

Published my first book in February.

Blog Shut Down:

Who could forget the infamous blog shutdown of 2023? It went down on July 25th and didn’t come back up until August 29th. Well, maybe everyone but me could forget it. I was in withdrawal lol. Five weeks of being mostly off Tumblr forced me to examine and reevaluate a lot of things. And even though I was thrilled to finally be unblocked, things aren’t the same. And that’s okay. Things change, life marches on.

I am by no means saying I’m out of here. Never fear. As long as I have fanfiction to write, I suppose I’ll be posting it here. I just feel less and less like working on my TRR stuff. I still want to finish the series I’ve started, and I’ve found I still have plenty of ideas for one-shots or short miniseries, but I’m not sure I have another epic, long TRR saga in me. Who knows, though? I’ve said that before and been proven wrong. I don’t control when inspiration happens or where the muse takes me.

I don’t know the fate of all those side blogs yet. Since I recently reorganized my master list, (yet again), I don’t know that they are needed. For now, they will remain as basically parking lots. Just a different way to organize my content.

The Rest of Tumblr:

2023 was the year I finally figured out how Tumblr works! I now understand the phrase shitposting on main. I discovered the rest of Tumblr, not just this little corner of it. From Goncharov to other fandoms to the existence of entire communities that I belong wholeheartedly to: Queer, neurodivergent, polyamorous, writers, etc. I found my people on this hell site.

What’s Next:

The Choices fandom will always have a special place in my heart, and I have made real, lifelong friends here and for that, I’ll always be grateful. My just over two years here have had their ups and downs for sure, but the ups far outweigh the downs. (If they didn’t, I would have left long ago).

I’m still working on the following TRR series:

Heir Apparent

Savage Love

The De Facto Queen

Royal Retribution

Queen of Hearts

Unexpected

Law’s End

Insurrection

Dark Elf

The Dark Kingdom

American Girl

Bad Parenting

Leo and Liv

Some are closer to done than others and there are a few that I just haven’t had any inspiration or excitement for in a while. I also have many one-shots in process.

And @harleybeaumont got me to play Heaven's Secret (#romanceclub) and not going to lie, no choose your own adventure story has grabbed my attention like this since TRR. And yes, there is already a folder marked “Heaven’s Secret” on my laptop with three WIPs in it!

Then there’s my original fiction. Long before I found Tumblr and got bitten by the fanfic bug, I was posting flash fic on my own website, saving short stories for submission to anthologies, and working on a few different original novels. I want to get back to that. Not to mention a lifetime worth of poetry that needs to be sorted, organized, and published.

All of the above may have to be put on hold as I navigate life with constant volleyball tournaments, a continuing search for the right second career, and a burgeoning business to manage and contend with. Not to mention a five-year-old with high energy, high needs, and high sensory-seeking behaviors. Life is complex on the best days.

Meanwhile, I’ve found that I really enjoy running the discussions for Word Warriors, giving feedback on other people’s work, and helping other writers on their journey. I can’t wait to get back to that in January.

I don’t know what 2024 holds but I am wishing the best for each and every one of you. Let life’s adventures continue!

Happy New Year everyone!!

[allhalesterekstilinski]

For a show that revolves around the lunar cycle, no one did any research. It's easy to google. I know it's a fictional show where anything can happen and I think I'm the only person this really bothers, but I'm still going to complain about it.

Everything is so jumbled in this show, if I miss a full moon, let me know and I'll add my two cents.

Here is my source.

Season 1

According to TW (ATTW): The wolf moon is right after school starts for the semester. It's on a Friday.

Reality: The wolf moon was January 19th. It was a Wednesday.

ATTW: The snow moon was sometime after February 7th since that is when "Night School" took place and the full moon was in "Lunatic." February 7th was a Wednesday since the radio DJ said the school was closed Thursday and Friday and today is Monday, so the 12th.

Reality: The snow moon was February 18th. This was a Friday. February 7th was a Monday and the 12th would be Saturday.

Season 2

ATTW: There is a full moon in "Shape Shifted."

Reality: This would not be possible since there is very little space between the last and the next full moon.

ATTW: The worm moon is on Lydia's birthday.

Reality: This would make Lydia's birthday March 19th. It was a Saturday.

Season 3

ATTW: The sturgeon moon took place during "Chaos Rising" and "Fireflies."

Reality: This would have been August 13th and 14th. I have reason to believe it was August since California schools typically start then. The 13th and 14th was Saturday and Sunday, despite the fact there was school during both episodes.

ATTW: In "The Girl Who Knew Too Much" Allison says this, "So it's my fault that you've been lying to me for the past two months?" Placing the rest of 3A in October. And during "Lunar Ellipse" there was a lunar eclipse.

Reality: The hunter's moon was October 11th. The only total lunar eclipses in 2011 were in June and December. And no partial solar eclipses were in October, either.

ATTW: The news article about Malia says the accident took place on September 17, 2005.

Reality: The harvest moon was September 18th.

Season 4

ATTW: The wolf moon takes place shortly after Liam is bitten ("Muted" and "The Benefactor"). The full moon is also seen in "117" when Kate loses control at the gas station.

Reality: The wolf moon was January 9th. It was a Monday, which doesn't make sense since the previous episode (when Liam was bit) they had been at school. It could not have been in "117" and "The Benefactor." You could argue "117" wasn't the full moon and Kate was just struggling, but she has no problem shifting into the werejaguar at will in "The Divine Move."

Season 5

ATTW: Scott chains up Liam because he's having trouble with the full moon. This is also the day right before school starts.

Reality: There were two full moons in August 2012. The sturgeon moon was August 1st and was a Wednesday. Perhaps a little early for school to start, but not totally impossible. The blue moon was August 31st and was a Friday. We can likely rule this one out as the beginning of season five.

ATTW: At the end of 5A, they reference the super moon.

Reality: The only super moon in 2012 was in May.

I'm not sure when the end of 5A is, but the following full moons include Saturday September 29th, Monday October 29th, Wednesday November 28th, and Friday December 28th. I doubt 5A lasted from early August to anything later than October.

Season 6

ATTW: In "After Images" Brett and Lori die and Liam is exposed as a werewolf on the full moon.

Reality: This date is likely Tuesday August 20th.

hi maggy!!

I was wondering how old the MC and the boys are in Lovesick since it was never mentioned.

I was curious to know since JK doesn't call the MC noona like how he does in I think all of the works that you made. I know it shouldn't be a rule or a policy for JK to call the MC noona in every work of yours but I was really curious to know the answer to how old she is or the year she was born!

Sending love and also a good job for yet another beautiful chapter 😭❤️

(I am also super sad that Lovesick is ending since it's my favorite work from you and I've been following since you, fortunately, continued Lovesick again back in Sept I believe.) Back then I knew NOTHING about bts and I had to open pinterest and type in their name to remember their faces 👽 I was like "Ooh yeah that x, I REMEMBER NOW"

My bday is March 30th and the fact that you said that Lovesick is ending on March 29th kinda makes it like I have a bday present from my all-time favorite author 🥹

I love you girl and pls take care 😭😭😭😭😭

hi lovely anon 🥺 i'm so sorry it's taken me so long to reply to this ask aaaa forgive me!!

i tried to leave their ages ambiguous so that it would be easier for people to see themselves in the MC, but i usually default to making the MC an 96-liner just because that's what i am lol 😭 i'm so used to jk being younger and than me and the rest being older that i tend to just roll with it. i went back to check and it seems that i decided that the MC is 23! she got her soulmark when she turned 18 and there's this line in ch 1, "There’s no job out there that would warrant the amount of injuries you’ve experienced over the last five years", so that would make her 23!

thank you so much 🥺💖 omg sdjks, thank you for giving LS a try even if you didn't know much about the boys at the time! 🤧 hopefully i can write some stories in the future that you'll enjoy just as much!

life has been a mess over the last couple of weeks and i've realized that i won't be able to meet that deadline, so i'm sorry that there will be no update in time for you b-day 😭 but i do want to wish you a early happy birthday and i hope you have a lovely day on saturday!! 💖💖 ily too!!

11/29/2023

Kept meaning to post after my 50k race, but got busy and just had some stuff going on. So this is my recap I guess/update of what im working towards now.

So my Ultra marathon was October 21st which happened to be on my 29th birthday, which was so fun! Longest training run i did was 25 miles 2 weeks before the race. We found out we were expecting baby #3 which we were so excited about! I wanted to talk with my ob to make sure they thought it was ok to do. I had trained all summer, so they gave the ok but hubby and I decided it would be safer to not do the whole distance. I did 18 miles, as it was a 5k loop that you just do as many times as you can in 6 hrs. It rained the whole time but it was SO much fun! Met 2 amazing strong ladies who I had the pleasure to run with till i was done. Beautiful trails and just a wonderful experience! Definitely would love to do it again!

Long story short we found out we had a missed miscarriage a couple weeks ago. I was over 10 weeks but found out baby had passed weeks before. Very rough thing to go through, makes my heart break so much for everyone who has had to go through any loss. We are moving forward and are just grateful for our 2 beautiful girls! I was afraid maybe it was because of my running. But my ob reassured me that running can not cause a miscarriage. So i am just trying to move forward.

I am running again, trying to get back into more of a routine. Running brings such joy and peace to me. Im sure other runners can relate, its my happy place to think. I did a turkey trot on Thanksgiving and have a fun Christmas 10k this Saturday.

Im back at trying to lose the last bit of weight. I am 177lbs, my goal for right now is 172 but ultimately i would love to be 165-167 or just more toned and to fit into my clothes pre kids 😅. Just trying to make an exercise routine and having a calorie deficit works really nice for me. My brother and I are doing a challenge losing 10lbs by Christmas. Im half way there!

I want to find another running goal to work towards as I enoy the schedule and just look forward to having something to work for. Though with the time of year here in Michigan im not sure im brave enough to run a race in the snowy months 😂. Maybe i should focus on toning up more and do more strength for the winter months and just do 3-5 miles when I can. Maybe work on getting faster 5 and 10k times.

If anyone has suggestions for a plan of how to just tone up/build muscle I would be very interested. I do strength workouts on youtube but i am sucker for cardio and typically choose that over strength 😝. But i think i could use some toning up lol.

[writingallthetimee]

okay so here's my timeline :) i got a little tired near the end so let's pretend it's finished (i promise i have a life)

Ep 1

Sunday 18th September - she arrives at Nevermore - this would only make it mid-September, which I’d say makes sense because even though Weems says it’s “mid-term” (9:05), she could just mean they don’t usually accept students once a term has already started 

Monday 19th Sep - she goes to therapy, meets Tyler, plays the cello- I’m assuming this is the next day bc that makes the most sense 

Saturday 24th Sep - fair we know this is the weekend because Wednesday says there's the fair this weekend, plus it has to be Saturday because there's a whole day of no lessons right after in EP2 

Ep 2

Still Saturday 24th Sep - searching for the body after fair

Sunday 25th Sep - rowan shows up again 

Monday 26th Sep - Poe cup - Bianca says “I can’t wait to wait to crush Ophelia Hall tomorrow” in Xavier’s room at 29:34 

Ep 3

Still Monday 26th Sep - nightshades kidnap

Tuesday 27th Sep - Outreach day

Ep 4

Thursday 29th Sep - Wed goes to the morgue - she says it’s Thursday at 1:24  

Friday 30th Sep - Wednesday shows enid her board, class, people plan dates

Saturday 1st October - rave’n - Thornhill says “I know you’re all excited about Saturday at 6:06 

Ep 5

Next Saturday 8th Oct - parent-teacher, grave digging - Bianca says “I thought you were gonna apologise for acting like a complete jerk last week” 

Sunday 9th Oct - Gomez innocent 

Ep 6

Next Saturday night 15th Oct - Wednesday’s party

Sunday 16th Oct - Wednesday gets snood (enid says, ‘they asked me to give it to you on parents' evening’, Lucas was grounded since parents' evening) then they break into Gates Mansion

I’m going to assume this is the 16th of October, I also like the idea of her birthday being in the month of Halloween

So October 13th 2006 falls on a Friday, making it line up that she’s born on Friday the 13th (8:20 EP1). We know the show takes place in 2022 because the flashback to her parents’ rave’n banner shows the date 1990 and Wednesday says “32 years ago”.

So I’m saying that her birthday was on Thursday the 13th of October 2022, but her friends didn’t celebrate until the weekend when they had the time to throw the party etc. 

Ep 7

Saturday 22nd Oct - Mayor’s funeral, Fester arrives, date with Tyler - fully assuming this since there isn’t any evidence of when the funeral took place but usually, funerals take place a week after deaths so this probably makes the most sense 

Sunday 23rd Oct - Kinbott dies, Wednesday finds out about the real Hyde

Ep 8

Still Sunday 23rd Oct - Torturing Tyler, “To lose”

first line tag game!

thank you to @hergrandplan @piebingo and @gulliblelemon for the tag💘💘💘 hello three of my most favorite writers

rules: post the first lines of your last 10 fics/chapters posted on AO3 (if you have less than 10 fics posted, post the first lines of all your fics) and try to draw some conclusions.

i’ve only got 9 works on ao3, so i did the first line of the last chapter posted for each of them, from most to least recent

9. Label reads, in scratchy, all caps: SIMON’S 1ST BIRTHDAY! JULY 2005

8. The rest of September and the first week of October pass in a blur of work and wedding planning and video calls with Gabriele, and soon enough, it’s time to pack up and leave for Miami.

7. It was due to a sort of self-inflicted quarter-life crisis that Wilhelm found himself standing outside a pottery studio at 6pm on a Saturday night. 

6. “Holy shit,” Wille gasped as he draped himself across Simon.

5. “Simon, my back really hurts after rowing practice. You think you can give me a massage?”

4. This night seemed to be all about repeats, because the elevator ride and the walk down the hallway were both just as tense and torturous, but now for a different reason.

3. He sat in front of a warm fire.

2. Things had ended on relatively amicable terms between them.

1. Simon’s phone. March 29th, 2027, 4:29pm.

conclusions: the only conclusion i can draw from these right now is that i do not pay nearly as much attention to the first line as i probably should! but, then again, we are our own worst critic and i am just doing this for funsies. but going back and reading my own writing always makes me want to change everything so im gonna leave this hear and try not to rewrite every first line ive ever posted! 💘

i have not had much time to catch up on the tl lately but if you would like to do this and haven’t been tagged , pls do it and tag me so i can see!! i love lil fic games!! ok luv u bye!

AUGUST 27TH - SEPTEMBER 9TH

THE INVESTIGATION

With the burning of the commons and THE POLLYANNA arrested - and implied to be G - it seems as if Ogden College is trying to enter this year acting as if nothing is wrong. Despite THE TEACHER'S PET and THE SIREN both meeting their untimely demises, and THE GOLDEN GIRL no closer to being found than she was a year ago, the faculty and investigation seem to be trying their best to act as if that chapter is behind them. Plenty of students know that's not the case, G having texted them even after THE POLLYANNA had been carted off in cuffs, proving just how easy it is for them to be blamed for something they didn't do, leaving them with no answers and wondering two very serious things.... If they speak up....will they be next ?? And what did G have in store for them ??

ooc; if your character wishes to report something, they may do so in an ask to the main.

CAMPUS NEWS

Birthday Sex (2) Masterlist

Links last checked: August 7th, 2024

part one

27 Somethings (ao3) - analester

Summary: based off a prompt i received on tumblr where dan and phil joke about dan getting spanked for his birthday, but they accidentally find out that they have a spanking kink

A Blip In the Existence of a Structure Vast and Great (ao3) - dizzy

Summary: It's Dan's birthday. (There is sex.)

a different kind of birthday present (ao3) - Lizzyboo

Summary: “Just sit back and relax, birthday boy, I got you,”

(birthday sex, lots and lots of birthday sex)

Birthdays in Poland (ao3) - developerdaniel

Summary: Phil nodded as he pulled Dan down, connecting their lips in a long awaited kiss. It was messy, it was needy, and it was exactly what both boys needed from each other. Phil didn't hesitate to slip his tongue into Dan's mouth, deepening the kiss as he ran his hands up and down the younger's bare torso.

~*~*~

aka the fic where it's dan's 27th birthday while they're on tour and phil makes sure to still go above and beyond for the love of his life.

Birthday Sex (ao3) - danfanciesphil (thejigsawtimess)

Summary: The rules are pretty simple.

Whoever's birthday it is gets whatever they want, no questions asked.

A bi-annual sex treaty.

It's the perfect answer to getting rid of all of that pent up angst, leftover desire and sexual frustration they feel for each other. And seriously, it'll be fine. There's no way anyone can be manipulated or end up with their feelings hurt or anything like that. Granted, friends-with-benefits has a bad rep, but how could this possibly go wrong?

They've got it all planned out.

Birthday Surprise (ao3) - MaeTaurus

Summary: Phil buys Dan a new toy for his birthday and throws him an extra special birthday party.

Birthday Surprises (ao3) - binchmarner

Summary: Phil turns 29 and Dan surprises him with a wonderful rendition of Happy Birthday.

~~~~~

"It’s too early," Phil moaned softly.

"It's eleven a.m., Philip. Do you know what day it is?” Dan cocked his head to the side, resting his chin on Phil’s chest.

“Saturday?” Phil cracked an eye open.

“And your birthday, you old man." Dan giggled.

Breakfast in Bed (ao3) - hunter_from_221b_gallifrey

Summary: It's Phil's birthday, and Dan has brought him breakfast in bed. Except, this breakfast has a few surprises.

Famous Last Words (ao3) - enbyishimaru

Summary: N/A

Favorite Paths (ao3) - TearDrop1234

Summary: It's Phil's birthday. Sex, love, and happiness ensue.

For Your Eyes Only (ao3) - felixandtae

Summary: It's Phil's 29th birthday and Dan surprises him in a very erotic way that includes something naughty.

Happy Birthday, Dan. (ao3) - wincestjel

Summary: as a birthday gift phil lets dan dom & he powerbottoms and just m yes,,,, pretty self explanatory

I Need You Like Cake on My Birthday (ao3) - analester

Summary: It’s pathetic, Dan thinks, spending his birthday alone at the club.

Midnight Chimes (ao3) - intoapuddle

Summary: Five times Dan was scared of the doorbell and one time he wasn’t.

Never Stop (You Still Get My Heart Racing) (ao3) - phantasticworks

Summary: Dan and Phil celebrate Dan's 29th birthday at home.

A cute, fluffy engagement fic that somehow took me two days and turned out to be 10k words.

Role Reversal (ao3) - Spanieltoweldjh

Summary: Happy 31st Birthday to Phil! To celebrate, the two boys have an exciting round of "Birthday Sex"

since we came here together (ao3) - kay_okay

Summary: "Happy birthday, Dan."

Dan feels the words come out of Phil’s mouth, and he reaches to pull it against his own again, and again, and again. He loses track of time and vaguely, in some far-away, rational corner of his muddled mind thinks they’ve both been away from the group too long.

“Get me out of here,” he breaks apart and begs, warm and insistent into Phil’s open mouth.

slice of cake (ao3) - Tarredion

Summary: Dan's promised to celebrate Phil with nothing but the best this year.

Naturally, he buys himself a new skirt - but it's not just to wear.

take your cock in hand before anything or anyone stops me (ao3) - kitkattaylor

Summary: birthday sex?

the birthday (fucking) present (ao3) - 2amskype (AngelaLives)

Summary: it's phil's birthday! what did dan get him? (hint: it starts with s and rhymes with chex)

Thirty, Flirty (ao3) - intoapuddle

Summary: "Thirty, flirty, and ready for a daddy to hurt me."

Wellness Wednesday:

Plotting - Planning

Plotting/Planning on what?

I am plotting, planning, prepping for a Family Road Trip, a Bro Trip - In General PTO/Vacation, a Short Term Meal/Diet Challenge, Next Year's Challenge (52 in 24), Possible Birthday Party for Myself, and What my First Real Cheat Meal is going to look like January 1st, 2024...

That's what's rolling through my head - helps me pass the time.

Beyond that - I don't feel like much is going on - Feel like I am in a limbo. I definitely feel better than I did last week - teetering back to neutral - hopefully moving towards the "positive".

Found a new respect/passion for reading comics... I've enjoyed them in the past but found some nice trades recently that have increased the flame.

Movie-wise - I am fizzling out. Nothing looking good - sitting good lately. Hopefully Barbie can rekindle my love.

In other news I've been taking naps during my work lunch. They have been greatly needed and cherished but haven't cured my sleep pains.

Had another plateau in weightloss - no sweat - been feeling good about my body lately.

Basically... been just a chill week.
