flashback

chris and y/n have been best friends their entire lives. y/n had bad experiences with men before this.

one night y/n walks into chris’s room with tears.

“what’s wrong, sweetheart”

chris said with a frown.

“he cheated on me.. he’s had another relationship with a different girl the entire time.”

she said in tears.

“oh y/n.. c’mere.”

she walked over to his bed and sat down next to him. he put her into his arms to comfort her.

“why am i unlovable..”

“you’re not.. men just suck. no i take that back. boys suck. a real man wouldn’t treat you like that.”

“but this is the second time i’ve been cheated on. and that was my second relationship.”

she cried into his shoulder.

“you’ll find someone i promise.”

“i’m never dating anyone ever again..”

˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖ ౨ৎ ˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖

a month after that, chris has spent all of his free time with y/n to make her feel loved and safe. she needed it and chris wanted to be with her.

chris and y/n have both developed feeling for each other over the time.

chris took y/n to the spot they have been going to since they were around 16.

that’s where he asked her to be his girlfriend.

y/n was hesitant about it due to her past relationships, but she knew chris was a good person. he was the man, not boy, she needed.

˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖ ౨ৎ ˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖

5:49PM they aren’t together

chris and y/n were going to be together for exactly one year tomorrow at 7:32PM.

after y/n said yes, he was sure to look at the date and even the time to make sure when this time came, he could make the perfect post on instagram.

before chris went to y/ns house, he got the post set up and set an alarm on his phone.

˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖ ౨ৎ ˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖

chris arrived at y/ns apartment.

y/n buzzed him in and waited at the door for him to walk in. she was really excited to see him. this has been the only real relationship she has been in and she really loved chris.

chris opened the door and received a tight hug the minute he walked in.

he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her head.

they eventually pulled away and chris handed her a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

y/n smiled and took them.

“awww chris.. i never knew you were such a romantic.”

she said in a slight teasing tone.

neither chris nor y/n were very romantic, they were just happy to spend time together and been themselves.

“yeah but this day is important. we have to be a least a little romantic.”

he said smiling at her.

“also.. happy almost one year, ma.”

“almost?”

she looked at in confusion.

“well whenever you said yes i looked at the time so i would know the exact time when this day came.”

she smiled at him and looked down.

“and what time was that?”

“exactly 7:32PM”

“aww chris i love you..”

she hugged him tightly once again nuzzling her head in the crock of his neck.

“i love you more baby..”

he kissed the top of her head once again.

˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖ ౨ৎ ˖ ݁𖥔 ݁˖

the time came and chris pulled out his phone.

*christophersturniolo posted for the first time in a while*

“go look at what i posted”

chris said excitedly.

i grabbed my phone curiously and opened instagram.

Fic Writer Questions

Tagged by @liesmyth 💜💜💜

how many works do you have on AO3?

252 works in total!

what's your total ao3 word count?

Just over 412k!

what are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Still at the top is Untitled Zuko and the Goose Fic, my crack crossover between Avatar: the Last Airbender and Untitled Goose Game. What You're Made Of, my crossover between Batman: WFA and Percy Jackson, where Steph is a daughter of Hermes, is in second place, which really makes me happy-- that story isn't perfect but I really like it. Then Ample Opportunity (Star Wars x Dreaming of Sunshine crossover) and til you find what you're hunting for (Harry Potter x Dreaming of Sunshine crossover), and finally as you are, as you were (Captain Marvel, Carol/Maria).

do you respond to comments? why or why not?

Yes!!! I try to respond to all of my comments, although I know there's a batch I just let go in the middle of a major depressive episode. I like to encourage people to comment more and to try to connect to people who like my work! It really makes me happy when I see the same people showing up in my comments (or even kudos) regularly.

what's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

I tend toward hopeful endings, but I think my angstiest ending would probably be Between Moments, a canon-compliant Star Wars: ST Poe Dameron/Paige Tico fic. It's incredibly short (like a lot of my fics, especially my older fics), but I think it packs a punch.

what's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

Most of my fics have pretty happy endings! But the one that immediately comes to mind is Back Here for Trouble Again, my MCU time travel fic in which Darcy Lewis accidentally goes back in time and tries to avert the events of Infinity War and Endgame. It's a somewhat open ending, but it's hopeful. I'd probably also have to say fake it til you make it (til it's true), my Protector of the Small fic set post-Lady Knight in which Kel and Neal are fake dating. It's very sweet and fluffy and there's lots of appearances from all of my favorite characters from the PotS quartet (my favorite Tamora Pierce series).

do you write crossovers?

Glances up at top 5 fics by kudos. Yeah, all the time. I think my favorites would have to be Flux (Narnia x X-Men, Susan/Magneto), Barnes and Noble (Doctor Who x MCU, Bucky Barnes & Donna Noble), and Sink or Swim (Narnia x Pirates of the Caribbean, Susan/Elizabeth). If we're counting fusions and not just straight crossovers, I'd also include other things alive, my Secret Garden TLT fusion fic in which Mary Lennox and Colin Craven are a necromancer and cavalier of the Seventh House, and The Worthwhile Fight, my Star Wars: ST Pacific Rim fusion fic in which Poe Dameron and Rey are jaeger pilots.

have you ever received hate on a fic?

Not really. I don't know if it's my pairings or my lack of popularity or what, but I've been lucky enough to escape getting hate. (I did once get a comment on FFN asking "but why did they kiss?" but that was just funny to me, especially since the summary had said it was a shipfic.)

do you write smut? if so, what kind?

I do!!! I don't know how to classify it... I think when it's good it manages to be character/relationship study, sometimes with kink?

have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I'm aware of

have you ever had a fic translated?

A couple of times! I have a blanket permission statement on my ao3 profile letting people know that they can remix, podfic, translate, create art, or create secondary fanwork of any of my fanworks; I just want them to link back to my work.

have you ever co-written a fic before?

I have not; I don't think I would enjoy it. I like bouncing ideas off of people, but I'm very possessive of my actual work.

what's your all-time favorite ship?

Oh God, where do I even begin. If we're talking about the ships that I imprinted on and that changed my psyche forever: Rikki/Zane from H2O and Veronica/Logan from Veronica Mars both set the blueprint for het ships I tend to enjoy: class differences, snarky banter, asshole dude who tries to do better (sometimes)... When it comes to femslash it's a lot harder to pick a favorite or a definitive ship; I'm all over the board with femslash ships.

what's a wip that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?

Most of my old MCU ideas. I was just looking at one the other day about post-Endgame Natasha ending up in a different world with the Avengers right after they defeated Loki, and it's a fun idea, but I just don't want to revisit the MCU these days.

what are your writing strengths?

I think I'm pretty good at dialogue! I think I'm also pretty good at what I call "high concept crack treated seriously"-- you know, a goose adopting Zuko or Matt Damon finding himself with an acting gig on Asgard. I also like to think I'm funny.

what are your writing weaknesses?

Description. I'm very bad at picturing things in my head, so I have to go back and do another pass (or two or three) on every fic to make sure I've described at least a few things.

what are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

It depends; why are you using it? Does it make sense if the reader can't read the language? Does it make sense if the reader can read the language (did you just Google translate this shit?) If the POV characters doesn't understand what's being said and you don't know the language the characters are speaking and there's no narrative reason to include it, it's perfectly fine to just say "They spoke to each other in French" or something.

what was the first fandom you wrote for?

First I ever wrote was for Nickelodeon's Victorious. First I posted to Ao3 was for CW's Arrow. (No matter how far I go, I always end up back in DC superhero fandom.)

what's a fandom/ship you haven't written for yet but want to?

There's SO many ships I still haven't written for, even in my current main fandom. But the next big idea that isn't currently on the docket is a Xena/Percy Jackson crossover.

what's your favourite fic you've written?

Oh God, so many. I've already named some of them above, but as for some others... In Memoriam is a Star Wars: PT fic focused on Padme and her handmaidens with lots of Naboo worldbuilding and epistolary and other elements. Thaw is a Zorii Bliss backstory and character study with lots of worldbuilding. same set of questions, all different answers is a Reylo dimension travel fic in which Rey and Kylo meet counterparts that are married. it's not what you've lost but it's what you find is a DC comics fic about Mia Dearden and Emiko Queen about them getting stranded and travelling through time and space. tried to wash you away but you just won't leave is a Dinah Lance/Lady Shiva enemies-to-lovers fic that I think manages to capture just a little bit of their twisty, complex obsession with each other.

Spent an hour or so this afternoon backing up my stuff from the Pit of Voles so I never have to return to it again. 94 separate fics that all pre-date 2012😅 Including my biggest ever 412k brute of a crossover. All backed up and archived where I can stare at them in horror and wonder.

[dollking081]

[annislittleshopofhorrors]

How many followers did she have before the announcement in Nov 2022? She has clearly been winning since then, even though she is actively buying bots.😅

Around 412k 😉

Colorful Fic Titles Masterlist

Links Last Checked: May 11th, 2024

part two, part three

3 times wearing white (ao3) - wrjbs james/lily, sirius/remus G, 1k

Summary: Remus saw Lily wearing white three times. The third time wasn't as funny as he expected.

A Glimpse of Green (ao3) - Apparate harry/ginny G, 1k

Summary: Colours were overrated. At least that was what Ginny had thought all her life. The world she knew was in black, white, and tones of grey, which led her to believe that was the only way to see her surroundings. She was taught about soulmates and how they made your world so much colourful. At first the thought had fascinated the young girl. Now, sitting in a café writing an essay that she should have definitely finished earlier, she just thought that it was absolute rubbish.

Always Red (ao3) - Mrs_Poncey snape/charlie G, 3k

Summary: The first Christmas after Hogwarts reopening—in the spirit of team-building, McGonagall elects to organise a staff’s Christmas party. However, she soon realises joining a group of traumatised adults in a room full of alcohol isn’t the brightest idea she ever had. Reasoning gets clouded, and secrets emerge during an ill-timed game of truth or dare.

During said truth and in his drunken state, Snape reveals in a show of outrage his infatuation with the colour red. How it’s omnipresent in Gryffindor students, house flags, and now in a new red-headed professor. Lily is in everything he perceives, and it’s driving him unbridled.

So, Flitwick dares him to let go, by snogging the newly appointed care of magical creatures professor and statutory red-head, Charlie Weasely.

Snape never foresaw the consequence of this particular night.

Blue Ice (ao3) - Ethril harry/tom T, 1k

Summary: Harry and Tom are out on a summer date. Tom isn't sure if Harry is just innocent or purposefully teasing him.

brown eyes, red lips (ao3) - venusflytrapstar hermione/draco E, 2k

Summary: Draco and Hermione get into a fight the night before and then they resolve their issues by having sex.

By the Light of the Night Rose (ao3) - Alexannah luna/harry G, 3k

Summary: [Valentine’s Day Special ‘15] Harry, who’s recently become the third wheel amongst his friends, isn’t looking forward to Valentine’s Day. But Luna has plans. Plans which are very, very Luna.

Crimson with a Silver Lining (fanfiction.net) - Lady Cailan hermione/draco M, 412k

Summary: It is six years since the fall of the Ministry to Voldemort. Those other than purebloods are deemed less than human. When Ginny's daughter ends up in grave danger, Hermione sells herself to the Death Eaters to save her life. Draco/Hermione. Not fluffy.

Diary of a Red Head (fanfiction.net) - Snowy Winter Tales harry/ginny T, 25k

Summary: Fifteen year old Ginny Weasley's diary, filled with embarrassing situations, sarcasm, and a lot of Harry Potters. She's not in love with him or anything. Honestly. [And it's won an award!]

Golden (ao3) - msmerlin hermione/draco M, 6k

Summary: In a world where magic is forbidden and bounty hunters are on the prowl, Hermione must try to outrun the Crownland's most notorious hunter, The Harrier, when her secret is exposed. Magic Suppression AU.

Golden Age (ao3) - zeitgeistic draco/harry, hermione/pansy M, 52k

Summary: The Celtic druids once made a decision that kept magic in abundance in Britannia, but they couldn’t account for the technological advances Muggles would make centuries later. Now magic is dying on the isles, and this is not a dark lord that Harry can fight. OR: Harry Potter doesn’t save the world this time, but he does get a lot of hugs.

The one where all of the 7th and 8th years are re-sorted and this fic becomes a love song to Hufflepuff.

Green & Gold (ao3) - Book167 draco/harry T, 746

Summary: Just two kids trying to be who they want to be... Even when the world sucks

Red, Chocolate and Hearts (ao3) - FictionIsMyHome draco/harry T, 312

Summary: Prompt from Tumblr where you must use Red, Chocolate and Hearts without mentioning Valentines day or anything murderous - Harry has a new flat and Draco has a pissed off friend. Drarry. Drabble.

Red Right Hand (ao3) - fightfortherightsofhouseelves harry/ginny E, 26k

Summary: What could possibly go wrong if one stupidly decides to sleep with his prime (and only) suspect in a murder case? No less when the suspect just happens to be your best mate's sister.

Auror Harry Potter is on a race against time to catch a murderer, trying very hard not to cock up his first big lead. Little does he know that he's about to be smacked by the vengeful hand of God.

Rhapsody in Blue (ao3) - copperbadge remus/tonks M, 5k

Summary: Remus has decided it's time to cure Tonks of her awkwardness, the only way he knows how.

Silver and Gold (ao3) - emotionalsupporthufflepuff hermione/draco M, 30k

Summary: A week after Harry's ninteeth birthday party, Ron, Hermione, Harry, and Ginny, wake up in Grimmauld Place.

White Dove (ao3) - vegetasbubble draco/blaise, astoria/draco, daphne/blaise M, 2k

Summary: After the failure of Draco's marriage, Blaise tries to help his best mate out.

Yellow Brick Road (ao3) - Kendas hermione/draco G, 16k

Summary: The idea that he’d one day be living as a ferret in two of his former classmates’ home, had once been incomprehensible to Draco. However, both of these had come to pass. Draco had learnt to deal with his situation to the best of his ability.

Two twitter screenshots by @/Elamimaxima. The screenshots are of the twitter in dark mode. The first post says:

" 'Men want praise for doing the most basic of household tasks'

Hot take but everyone does, but society has taught us that housekeeping is a woman's job and should be thankless. Ideally you both go 'babe look I did the kitchen' with 'holy shit that's awesome thanks' as a response."

The post was replied by the same person. The second post says:

" 'but it's your house too!'

And??? Human beings thrive on praise for overcoming struggles even when they're small."

The first post was made in 22 Jan 24 at 6:08 AM and has 412k views, 2.503 reposts, 135 quotes and 21.1k likes. The second post has four likes, 81 reposts, 2,512 likes and 23.5k views.
