#5+1 visionary fic

[walkingstackofbooks]

If I ever stop doing this in my fic, something's wrong :P

[walkingstackofbooks]

From the next chapter of my DS9 time-loop fic, Vision Awry:

“You’re hurt.” It wasn’t a question. Now that the visor was up, he could see that Julian’s face was glistening with sweat, and his eyes did not appear to be focussing properly. Girani was already beside him, hovering over him with her tricorder. “Were you attacked?” Ben asked. If someone else was out there, targeting his senior officers, then tiredness be damned, he’d take a team out there straight away to hunt them down. “Not… no. No, you-- you don’t need to worry now,” Julian replied. “Don’t worry, sir, I’ll save you…” He swayed dangerously, and Ben caught him by the shoulders once more. This time, he didn’t let go.

This week’s word is…

“I’ll be frank.” “Either you have me act as your girlfriend or you’re gonna meet that teenager in a week and pray that she cheats on you down the line so the engagement gets cancelled.”

SYNOPSIS. Orter Madl's month has been nothing but blind dates inhibiting his work at the Magical Power Administration. All set up by his parents. He's suggested into a relationship of convenience by the woman who occupied his position previously, Rinka Ontarin, in order to solve his problem. Reluctantly accepting the proposal, they must now convince the whole kingdom of their romance whilst fulfilling their duties as Divine Visionaries. More questions arise than answers though as the strings are slowly unraveled.

NOTES. Inspired by business proposal the kdrama, title taken from dreamcatcher's starlight, lots of world-building headcanons, we're following the plot of mashle but it's more obvious later on, also in the same universe as my LOSER=LOVER fic with my other mashle oc, no love triangle, nvm i added a love 'triangle' but that's if you really squint your eyes, NVM IT'S GONNA BECOME CANON ADJACENT???

WARNINGS. Cringe rom-com (let's have fun shall we?), they're kinda ooc sometimes, possible descriptions of death and blood, off screen character deaths with lots of plot importance :>, slow burn in terms of plot and romance, planned bittersweet/sad ending, OH and random swearing?, I'm still writing it so please don't ask me about an update schedule.

Stare Blankly- Adam Sackler/Reader- Part 1, Chapter 6

*This is a prequel to my upcoming fic, “Same World.” My work is also on Ao3

Chapter 1   Chapter 2   Chapter 3  Chapter 4   Chapter 5 

You walk into your apartment and find Hannah sitting at the table on her laptop, with notes scattered everywhere and Marnie sitting down on the living room floor playing with Grover. Your dog River runs to see you, but then returns to befriend the baby. You say hi to all of them then go to your room to change into a more comfortable outfit. You unpack your takeout, and make plates for all three of you. You sit down on the couch with your plate, and you start to tell them about your run-in with Jessa, “I ran into Jessa today. She was fighting with some guy and couldn’t pay for her food.”

“Well that’s classic Jessa. She’s always a hot mess, she causes all of these problems not caring about anyone else’s feelings and then doesn’t know why everyone is mad at her.” Marnie says and Grover starts reaching for a toy. Hannah adds, “Yeah for someone who wanted to be a therapist, she’s not very self-aware. She starts fucking and dating my ex-boyfriend, doesn’t tell me, then is shocked when I didn’t tell her I was pregnant.”

“Do any of you talk to her anymore?” You can’t help but ask because adult friendships go through waves.

“No, I told her that I wasn’t mad at her anymore but she’s not my friend. I have no idea what her life is like and she doesn’t know mine.” Hannah says and you can tell that she’s not as over it as wants to sound. Marnie then shares, “She wasn’t even supposed to be there for brunch that day and that was the last I saw her or heard from her.”

“UGH! Fuck! This article is going to kill me.” Hannah yells as Marnie shushes her. Hannah’s picking up her notebook and is bent over her laptop again. You sit down across the table from her, and ask, “What’s your article about? I thought you were copyrighting?”

“I am, that’s my day job but I got this article freelancing. It’s supposed to be on Mothering conference I went to.”

“See that’s why I don’t do essays most of the time. It’s easier to write other people’s emotions than your own. What’s the problem? How was the Mothering conference?” You ask so you can help her get through her writer’s block or maybe give her a new angle for the piece.

“It was supposed to be ‘empowering’ but it was all about mothers feeling perfect all the time and didn’t talk about the struggles facing mothers every day. I’m a proud, and ‘empowered’ single mother and it is hard, it’s really fucking hard. I don’t know why they just didn’t talk about that. Like you be a great mom and still acknowledge it’s difficult. It was façade feminist: looks feminist on the outside but hollow on the inside.” Hannah says and sighs. She walks over and picks Grover up, he smiles up at her. You then realize that’s what Hannah should write about.

“Why don’t you write what you just said about the façade feminism? Explain why it felt that way to you. And you know talk about how great being a mother is, but also how difficult it is.” You say and she smiles and says, “Yes! That sounds like a great idea!”

Hannah sits down and starts typing at a rapid pace. You and Marnie put on a new show on Hulu while Grover naps peacefully.

*****************************************************************************

               “Y/N! I’m so glad you could make it! I know you’re not a dramatist like me, but I think you’ll have fun!” Your friend, Kirsten says as she leads you through her party. You had met Kirsten in law school, and she was working for legal, but her real passion was theater. She was a terrific actress and had never been afraid to put herself out there. She had a larger than life personality that you had grown accustomed to. This was her birthday party but of course, she had a band playing and had a skit plan.

You’re catching up with Kirsten as Adam Sackler walks through the door. Attempting to avoid him, you head towards the restroom. Before you can make it too far, Kirsten pulls you back and says, “Y/N, this is my friend Adam, we’re in the same cabaret group.”

Adam looks at you awkwardly and you look at him awkwardly. “Oh I know Adam, I didn’t know you were in the same cabaret group.” You finally say, and then Kirsten moves close to Adam and clutches onto his arm. You know Kirsten well enough to recognize that move:  she’s going to flirt with him to see if he’s interested. Not that it means she’s interested in him, she likes to play the game more than anything. You can tell that Adam isn’t sure what to do with attention so you smile as you watch the exchange. Kirsten eventually moves along, and Adam moves to stand next to you. When you make eye contact with him, you both burst out in laughter. Once the fit of laughter has settled down you suppress your next comment.

“Kirsten is one of a kind. She’s putting the moves on you.” You raise your eyebrows provocatively at him and he shrugs his shoulders in an innocent way back at you before replying.

“She’s great but not my type.”

“What is your type then?” You question because Kirsten is gorgeous, bubbly and certainly not dull. From his relationship history, you can’t determine what his type actually is.

“You.” He’s observing your reaction with his amber eyes that you feel are boring holes into you. The look on your face is that of pure astonishment. Then, you laugh uneasily because you’re both flattered and unsure how else to respond. A change in topic is much needed at this time.

“I never saw you as a cabaret guy.” You comment.

“Well this cab group is very innovative and challenging, plus I like the artistic vision. And it’s a good break from my day job.” He says and takes a drink of his seltzer water.

“What’s your day job now?”

“I’m working on this indie film by a Romanian couple which talks about immigration and family. Think a modern A View from the Bridge meets Cassavetes, if you know who he is.” Adam remarks and watches a dance group take to the middle of the floor.

“Yes, I know who Cassavetes is, he was a true visionary. Have you ever read his thoughts on method acting?” You ask. You loved some Cassavetes movies and enjoyed the class you took on him in undergrad. Adam seemed be intellectual and opinionated therefore you assumed he’d have some commentary.

“He has a point that if you mentally become the character then it’s” Kirsten interrupts Adam’s statement by grabbing his arm and yours, dragging you to the dance floor.  Adam shows off his eccentric dance moves and you have nothing but respect for them as you throw a couple of your signature moves too.  And this dance party goes on for hours.

***************************************************************************

Adam was walking home from Kirsten’s party with Y/N, who was tagging alongside him carrying her heels in her right hand. He was shocked when they walked out of the venue that she took off the shoes she was wearing and pulled a pair of rolled up flats out of her bag to put them on instead. After dancing for hours, the two headed home, choosing to walk together since they were going in the same direction. That’s when the conversation continued. Adam had just told Y/N about some of the stuff that he wrote, and she grabbed his arm, turning him to face her.

“Wait, you write too? Why have you never mentioned that before?” She says in an offended voice. He comes up with some rationale, “I don’t know, you never asked. I write about my life.”

Unable to think of any real reason for why never told her before, he tries to deflect.  They begin walking again in order to not cause a pileup in the middle of the street.

“I bet your stuff is good. You’re very honest, which is rare anymore. Did you write the movie about you and Hannah?” She says as if she’s putting the dots together for the first time. Adam wonders how she knew about the film about his relationship with Hannah, and now he anxiously hopes she never watches it. He remembers that she’s roommates with Marnie, that’s probably how she knows about Disclosure. He shakes his head yes, choosing not to answer verbally. She stops at the corner since this is her street. Adam hopes he’ll see her again soon.

“Marnie and I are having this apartment warming thing this Friday, you should come.” She tells him and he responds with the obvious reaction, “I’d like that but are you sure I’d be welcome with all of them being there?”

“Yeah, Marnie is inviting who she wants to and I want to invite you.” Y/N says like it’s the most natural thing in the world. Adam is still surprised so he says, “Wait, does this mean you like me?”

“I tolerate you and you tolerate me. Plus we have shared interests.” Adam smiles at her like an idiot as Y/N walks away down her street. He thinks that this is good. He can survive being around Hannah and Marnie if he gets to spend time with Y/N.

******************************************************************

The restaurant bustles around you as you wonder why you agreed to meet Jess for lunch. She had contacted you to invite you out as a way to thank you for helping her out. You ordered coffee and sipped as you waited. Mentally you determined that if Jessa didn’t arrive in exactly five minutes, then you would pay for your coffee and leave but then you see her outside smoking a cigarette.

“Okay so I married to this finance guy named Thomas-John who lived in Williamsburg,” Jessa says laughing, and you respond by saying, “And the fact that he had two first names and lived in Williamsburg wasn’t a red flag? Every guy I’ve ever met with two names has turned out to be a total douche. Not to mention, the people I’ve met from Williamsburg.”

“Well I was young and stupid.” Jessa says. The two of you ended up chatting once she did arrive, and you realized that you actually thought she was fun to be around. She might not be a “best friends” type of girl but you enjoyed being around her.  She continues, “I like my lifestyle, I’ve lived it since I was five years old. But everyone else has moved forward and I feel like I’m in the exact same place.”

“What do you really want to do? There has to be a way to accomplish it, and you could always do it in a non-traditional way.” She thinks about what you said, and you wonder why you’re giving her life advice when she more than likely won’t listen to you at all. Jessa raises her eyebrows and finally answers, “I want to help people figure out their lives and their trauma. I thought I wanted to be a therapist but I’m not sure if going back to school is my thing.”

“You could be a life coach. Talk about your struggles and how you got through them. Help others in similar situations.” Honestly, you couldn’t imagine Jessa sticking to anything: she was too much of a bohemian free spirit. She started smiling and thanked you for the advice, she said that she’d work on starting that. For whatever reason, you decided to invite her to your apartment warming, and she said that she’d be there.

“But you should know that Hannah will be there, and Adam was invited too. I don’t know if that will be awkward for you.”

“Uh I can manage, I’ll see you then.” She gives a hug before you both leave to go your separate ways. You suddenly worry that inviting Jessa might prove to be a mistake.

DS9 3.17 Visionary

1. An excellent second-tier DS9 ep.

2. As long as you don’t think too much about the causality in the time-jumps and think of them as universe-hops instead. 

3. 

4. Odo thinking he’s in a detective novel FTW

5. Bashir’s line of “It could have been worse; could have been me” - guess that subconsciously influenced a fic, whoopsie

6. Also if the Romulans don’t want to start a war, could they please stop doing crap that could start a war? Like, gonna causually blow up a Federation space station and the only stable wormhole to the Gamma Quadrant; just like last Tuesday. I have to wonder how many Starfleet ships suspiciously explode per month. Romulans sus.

@fuzzyhairedfreak #this has been an post#i know the only answer is to write it myswlf but please i already have three fics with 2k+ words written in my drafts#i fail to keep working on them every day. my seeds are germinating etc etc but i Do Not Want a fourth#also there's so many 'quick get together after the slowburn that the show already provides' on the defiant fics that are so good#hate having such a specific craving for a story

Soooooo relatable XD My particular hankering is for a fic where Julian loses his grip on reality post-Inquisition, but I'm 40k into my Time Loop fic and would really like to finish that first! 😅

suddenly desperate to read a long slowburn garashir fic set entirely on the defiant in early season six but I have never Actually found such a fic

FIC TITLE MEME

Tagged by @threadsketchier!! Thank you!! :D

Look at the most recent 20 fanwork titles on your AO3 account and answer the questions below.

Ohhh boy, going back 20 fics is taking me out of my Luke & Vader SW phase and right the way back into Fics I’m Not So Proud Of Now, but here they are XD

Eclipse

The Heir

Sparks

Tenterhooks

Chiaroscuro

Ascension

The Great April Flood

The Moon and the Monsters

Touchstone

Arena

No Heroes on the High Seas

Bodhi Rook

The Beauty in the Beast

Mercenaries & Missionaries

Veracities & Visionaries

A New Hope Grown Old

Echoes of an Old Alliance

Bail Organa

Commodex Tahn

Faithless

1. How many are you happy with?

Most of them! Sometimes the titles are good even when I’m less than satisfied with the fics themselves. XD But I like thinking up titles, so I don’t post until I’m happy with the title, and I take it as a challenge to come up with good ones. In fact, I like basically all of them except...

2. How many are... not great?

*gestures at the Shatterpoints series: Bodhi Rook, Bail Organa, Commodex Tahn...* They’re... they were written and posted when I was still using FFN as my main base of operations, so there, each of these titles were the title of a chapter, in a oneshot collection. But on AO3, I chose to use the series feature instead (why did I do this for the Shatterpoints series but not for Chiaroscuro?? Beats me) so... we have entire oneshots named... that.

3. How many did you scramble for at the last minute?

Veracities & Visionaries went through many drafts, if I recall correctly, before I decided on it for sure literally moments before posting. It needed to sound like Mercenaries & Missionaries, and follow the same theme, but I searched for so many words before I settled on these ones.

Ascension, also, was one that I really wasn’t certain about until I literally needed a title. As was The Moon and the Monsters (originally posted as Moons and Monsters). 

4. How many did you know before you started writing/creating, or near the beginning?

Eclipse was literally the first title I came up with for it, it was just a placeholder so I could put it in my notes. It... stuck XD

5. How many are quotes from songs or poems?

None of them.

6. How many are other quotes?

None of them (except No Heroes on the High Seas, which is a quote from the fic itself, if that counts? Same for Tenterhooks and Ascension, come to think of it.)

7. Which best reflects the plot of the story/content of the fanwork?

Some are pretty on point, others... less so. Arena is probably the most literal, The Heir references stuff that happens later, and the core conflict and situation, and... well, No Heroes on the High Seas is pretty self-explanatory.

8. Which best reflects the theme of the story?

Sparks shows the theme I was trying to get for the story, though I’m not sure how much I succeeded. Touchstone, I think, is probably the most accurate -- the whole fic is about needing and having something to ground you, and then having that torn away (as well as, y’know, the magic system being based on touching).  Chiaroscuro is... well, the light and the dark :P

9. Which best reflects the character voice of the story/POV of the story?

Tenterhooks was chosen because the whole time, Vader is waiting on tenterhooks to see if Luke will ever come to accept him. But honestly -- it’s simple and to the point and obvious, but Faithless encapsulates the voice of the story by far the best. XD

10. Which is your favourite title?

It’s a toss up between The Heir or Touchstone. But probably Touchstone. They just have... That Feel to them.

Tagging (whether or not you have 20 titles, just as many as you wanna put on, and don’t feel obliged to participate at all): @zoryany @silvereddaye @coleroz @treenahasthaal @amylionposts @ladyvader23 @planningconquest @codyrexfives @slx99 @prayforpiett

Averey Moore (The Flash) + her badass moments.

Ooh, this is fun. Thanks for sending this in! This is mostly from my first fic, In a Flash, but a couple are from have already occurred in it's sequel, Out of Focus:

1. Averey revealing to Team Flash that she was a meta-patient held at Belle Reve

2. Averey/Visionary and Ronnie/Firestorm's fight against Gavin/King of the Royal Flush Gang after revealing to Dr. McGee that she was a meta and that Mercury Labs needed to accept responsibility for it's hand in all the tests being done to metas at Belle Reve

3. Saving Gavin when the singularity was destroying S.T.A.R. Labs all around them; inadvertantly tapping into a newly developing meta ability

4. Teaching Barry how to pickpocket and coaching (in show called quarterbacking) him through his "criminal" undercover work with the Snarts

5. Temporarily blinding Lisa Snart so she wouldn't witness Leonard killing her father

Others may think of different moments. But these are moments with Ave that jumps out at me when I think of her.

-

Send me OC and a topic and I’ll give you 3-5 facts about them/it

[ansbobcar]

Ahahah that's why I 100% removed him from being adler prefect in my fanfic canon adjacent shit becuz he genuinely doesn't sound like he wants to be a prefect yk. His whole goal is about making orphans not be discriminated against (or something I lowkey forgot the details but Finn was in the mix) so the only reason he would've accepted prefect position is he was forced to take it cuz he got that power and also baby steps for DV shit (but he's already a DV so I doubt it matters anymore).

The way I see it is that while it's schooltime he only works part-time (2-5 hours max) (there's this whole must graduate high school policy for DVs in my fic, so he is encouraged to prioritise his school work) unless it's an absolute emergency or he has some sorta long-term mission.

I presume that although he is head of Magical Items, it's mostly in name only for the remainder of his school days as:

1. His magic is powerful, and it's implied somewhere that Wahlberg requested him to take out a dragon (or I just made that up for my fanfic I dunno), so the Bureau is making use of his power elsewhere

2. Wahlberg's influence over the Bureau allows Rayne to focus on less department orientated problems (like that stolen mirror?) and focus on Wahlberg requests (investigating stuff)

3. The Magical Items Department can operate just fine without a Divine Visionary. So it's prolly just monthly check-ins and looking over certain paperwork for new tools and licenses that will stress blud out.

Those are my ideas.

Otherwise he relieves stress by letting his rabbits chew him out alive every morning and evening (in the canon canon shit)

lowkey now that i’m thinking about it how does being a divine visionary even work for rayne? he’s still a student so when does he have time to go to the get work done at the bureau? does he just miss a bunch of classes and makes up his work later? is he given special exemption? also he came back from a trip during the magia lupus arc. where did he go? what did they have him do? how is he balancing everything 😭😭 so many things i have to know..

[walkingstackofbooks]

Bah, the perennial problem of whether or not to refer to our major as 'Kira' or 'Nerys' when writing from Julian's pov in an informal, cosy setting. Because in the dialogue he's definitely calling her 'Nerys' from mid season 3 onwards, but saying Nerys too many times in the narrative sounds odd, but switching between the two sounds even odder, and I just cannot choose a consistent one!

[ansbobcar]

“I’m doing this for the win-win-win situation between the Bunnies, yourself and I, alright? We can all live comfortably without losing nutrition and I can get closer to you.” “To ‘me’?” “Yes.”  “Shit.” 

SYNOPSIS. If Love was a School Subject, Darren Randel would barely pass it as she has only just fallen in love recently for a sincere rabbit obsessing guy. With a grand plan in clutch, she’ll make the most of her chances to have her feelings returned! Unfortunately, her already tumultuous life ramps up alongside these new feelings.

NOTES. Title refers to song by stayc. Set 10 months before the canon mashle plot. Same universe as my Orter fic lol (I developed this fic first :D) but not necessary to read (hopefully), probably contains canon divergent content and worldbuilding.

WARNINGS. Cringe rom-com, they're kinda ooc (especially Rayne), Darren is basically a Mary Sue, slow-burn romance (like frustrating levels), badly executed love triangle? and second male lead syndrome, VOL 1 is on the lighter side compared to VOL 2

_ _ _

VOL 1. LOVING YOU

Introduction Arc

EP 1. Introducing trouble

EP 2. Rabbits are a terrible excuse

EP 3. Blackmail? I didn't do that to him!

Term Finals Arc

EP 4. Compromises are the best if you do it right

EP 5. Omens of the future

EP 6. Kindness often doesn't reward pleasantly

EP 7. Flunk them. Your grades don't matter to me

Summer Internship Arc

EP 8.

Candidate Exam Arc

tba.

VOL 2. I'M IN TROUBLE

Divine Visionary Induction Arc

tba.

_ _ _

We are so screwed. This might be longer than my other fic. Which is scary now that I think about it but this fic covers a lot of original content that is necessary to develop the character narrative I made for this girl unfortunately. So I'm aiming for 2k-3k words per chapter instead so I don't overwhelm people with like 40+ chapters for a single Part. Due to the complete overhaul of the plot, I won't change/update and publish Darren's character profile because it spoils a lot AHAHAHHAH.

The Arc names aren't set in stone. I just dunno how else to call them.

Recent Sterek Reads

I haven’t been really into Sterek for a few months but the other day I had an intense craving for a Time Travel Sterek fic, this is the result. Over the past 4 days I have read all these fics (yes I am aware of how pathetic that sounds), in this exact order. All these fics I’ve read multiple times already and feel like these have a similar thread. 

1. The Long Way Round (Series) - exclamation Time Travel. Magic Stiles. This is such an incredible series, I love that it’s a time travel fic that doesn’t go back to before the fire. Love Stiles bonding with Laura and Derek, and becoming the next Merlin. I really love all the magic in this and the incredible side characters.

2. Fly A Little Faster - mirrorkill Time Travel. Teen Derek. Basically what should have happened in 3x08 Visionary. Instead of falling for Paige Derek falls for Stiles. Full of cute dates, Derek being both shy and confident around Stiles, and Stiles being “cousin Stiles”. 

3. Now As Ever (All That Is And Has Been) - venis_envy Time Travel. Teen Derek. This is a little more heartbreaking, Stiles spending every Saturday in the library listening to his mother read stories to kids, just rip my heart out why don’t you! But I love Stiles bonding with the Hale Family, and how he tries to stop Kate, and the cute little relationship with Derek. There is also a lot about string theory which can be kind of confusing. 

4. This Time With Feeling - Crimson1 De-Age. Teen Derek. This is so fluffy without being fluffy, if that makes sense. It’s just a Derek that is happy and young and trusting. The pack interactions are so amazingly nice, and Stiles and Derek being best buds (with a little extra of course, this is a Sterek story) is the greatest. Derek as a comic book geek is precious. 

5. Spook: A Ghostly Love Story In Three Parts - zosofi Ghost. Time Travel. Teen Derek. This is a super interesting fic with Stiles being a Medium. Love the Stiles and Lydia friendship and Ghost Derek is sweet. The Time Travel aspect and the merging of the timelines is really awesome.

6. Our Memories Are Numbered - rufflefeather Memory Loss. Confident Derek. The one thing I love most about this fic is how confident Amnesia Derek is, so sure of himself. And the way the pack kind of comes together and everyone in their own way heals things, it’s really awesome. Also the take on the Alpha Pack is interesting. 

 7. By Any Other Name - entanglednow Memory Loss. This has the feel of a Supernatural episode but with Derek and Stiles knowing nothing about themselves and assuming they are dating. The tension between them is really well done and at the end you almost don’t want them to get their memories back. 

8. Where Clouds Roll By - ohanotherday De-Age. Young Derek. Teeny tiny Derek still all bossy and stubborn, attaching himself to Stiles, is super cute. Derek saying “’Tiles” is the cutest thing ever. Just, tiny Derek is so freaking cute okay??

9. Does Size Really Matter? - impalagirl, wilddragonflying Tiny Derek. Okay, I have a thing for Stiles taking care of Derek it seems. But tiny tiny Derek with fluffy ears and a tail is adorable. I love how it’s set during S1 and even though Derek talks a lot more than normal, it still seems very in character. Like this bonding between Stiles and Derek could have happened on the show, it was very natural. 

10. Prince Among Wolves - Rarwen (Zimothy) Parent Derek. Babysitter Stiles. The kids in this, Andy and Olly, are the cutest things ever. I love that Stiles is so good with the little wolves and that there’s a whole thing about Andy being Transgender, and Derek trying to accept it. Stiles fits himself into Derek’s pack so seamlessly and mends this little family. 

So I figured out the connecting threads. The biggest connection with these fics is Caretaker Stiles. No matter the fic, Stiles is always taking care of / protecting Derek, it’s my favourite thing. Another thread would be Derek not exactly canon Derek all the time, mainly this slightly more free, confident, happy Derek. Even if it’s only for a short time, it’s still beautiful.

The Daily Snitch – Sunday, December 2, 2018

1 for the writing meme thing. And you have to answer it for real. :P

You asked for this.

Behind a cut because I have feeling this is going to get obnoxious.

The Scottuary set:

Noshiko and Scott for mentor and berserker trauma: i feel like this explains itself

unicorn scott for magic!scott: currently deciding on a direction. graphic unicorn sex? or sweet sciles feels?

pain taking 1: for darknkess around the heart, first time taking pain and pain after shocks: currently maybe a sciles story. maybe being reworked to add another scottuary story because that's who I am as a person. (a Scott and Boyd story though. 0.0 !! :) )

scott and deucalion: missing scene, scott plus alphas, scott plus villains: The missing time when Scott is with Deucalion in 3a (yes this is my second variation on this theme, why do you ask??)

melissa and scott: hurt comfort/family/near death experiences Fury from Melissa's pov

scott/malia/theo: pack bonds, taking too much pain, someone else taking his pain. a plotty ish scaleo story.

scott and ally (uh, scott and kira's daughter from my christmas fic universe) : cultural heritage. scott and ally watching encanto and talking about their heritage basically. more complicated than anticipated because she is 5. but scott is the best dad and i really think this one is tooth rottingly cute so far

scott/deucalion model au:

orgasms: an extension on this little ficlet with more explicit attention to the multiple orgasms

gangbang scene: a scene in that verse where Deucalion essentially has Scott agree to a gangbang. for art.

scileo universe

deucalion part: the next installment in this series: more happens with deucalion. there are a lot of scileo feelings.

scott/lydia/stiles

the sequel to this series the premise is stiles, scott and lydia are so powerful now the world depends on them communicating. the world is in some trouble. also it's a fun play on dubcon elements, because in the previous fic they chose each other. but then they discover they are stuck with each other. uhm. potentially for centuries.

dark scira: a sequel to this fic where Kira captures Lydia too

a probably dropped Deaton and Scott fic about a memorial service for Satomi

Like 7 more fics for the Deucalion's progeny series, including a spin on Visionary, nogitsune! Allison and Theo and Malia

a Phichit/Victor/Yuuri story set in my Power Dynamics verse

a s5 teen wolf rewrite with @artisticentropy where the Dread Doctors experimented on the adult generation and end up holding Lydia, Scott and Stiles captive

So when I said I was working on 5 wips at any given time in response to another ask, I was... not exaggerating at all. I was understating it. All of these are actively being worked on. ^^;; the yoi maybe a little less so, but he document was open in my scrivener . and maybe some of them haven't been worked on since December. but they are in my brain. (co-writing one maybe....)

questions

[foolgobi65]

we can be heroes if we just close our eyes (head first, can’t lose)

k so this is chapter one of an unfinished fic i started writing 2 summers ago i’ve got like ... maybe 5/12 chapters written? its been hanging out on my shitty drive for too long so i figured id find out what you guys think!! its .... a ...... b99/avengers/megamind/amnesia fic. i know it makes no sense but it has a plot i promise. 

plEASE reblog im desperate for attention and validation and i have no shame whatsoever thanks love u all <3 <3 

“Jake’s gone and robbed another bank,” Black Widow says, filing her nails. She tosses a glance at Amy, filing away the last of her paperwork and pauses. “.....you could go stop that, if you’re in the mood, Cap.”

Captain America rolls her eyes and signs the last form. “Make sure that Holt gets this, alright?” Amy wonders whether she should put on her uniform, before deciding to just grab her shield. It’s not as if Peralta’s expecting anyone else.

“Excuse you, but I am a highly ranked Agent of this fine, international organization,” Gina says, “I’m like, second in command of all this shit. Go find a real secretary to do your dirty work.”

“You’re playing Kwazy Kupcakes,” Amy observes. Gina raises an eyebrow without looking away from her phone.

“And I snapped three necks between my thighs before 9 a.m,” Gina drawls. “I’m magical, bitch. Get on my level.”

Amy sighs, rolling her shoulders a little. “Just...make sure Holt sees the report, okay?”

“Jake’s probably robbed two banks in the time it took for us to have this little chat, but whatever.” Gina waves the fingers of her free hand vaguely in Amy’s direction. “We’re having a bit of a morale issue so don’t do any property damage, use two types of birth control, you know the drill.”

Amy does, in fact, know the drill. She strides into the elevator and checks the instructions that Gina’s managed to send her on the way down. It’s a screenshot of a series of text messages Peralta sent Gina about ten minutes ago, if the timestamp is correct. She reaches the ground floor, nods at a passing Agent and heads out to the parking lot still scrolling through the images.

stealin sme shit from the bank on prk ave

tell america 2 wear her civvies

her leather jacket is A+

she shud wer more leather less pantsuits

k the alarms r off c ya l8r sk8r

Amy looks down at her gabardine pantsuit and realizes two things simultaneously. 1) She needs to change out of her chunky heels, and 2) She’s going to have to wear her leather jacket, and Peralta will never let it go.

One change of shoes and jacket later, she’s on the road, cruising through traffic on her motorcycle. A child notices her shield strapped to her back and yells out excitedly, a young couple whistles three times before Amy is too far out of range to hear. Grandparents walking on the sidewalk salute, and Captain America Santiago switches between waving and a gentle smile, befitting her status as national icon.

Sometimes, she kind of loves her job. And then other times, she has to go fight Iron Dude in the streets of Manhattan.

“Ayyyy America!” Peralta shouts when she arrives. He’s currently occupied with throwing handfuls of what look to be hundred dollar bills from a giant bag he’s carrying in his left hand, repulsors keeping him airborne as he makes it rain money on the good denizens of New York. “Come to collect some extra cash? They can’t be paying you very well at SHIELD.”

Amy rolls her eyes, taking her gun out of its holster and shooting at the bag. Peralta moves slightly and they both watch as the bullet misses its target by inches.

“Were you even trying?” he asks laughing. Peralta throws another handful of bills into the air. Amy shrugs, grabbing some cash off the ground. Definitely hundreds, then. She readies her gun and fires again, this time repeatedly, anticipating any way he might move and meeting him with a bullet.

One of the bullets grazes Iron Dude’s hand, another three puncture the bag in quick succession. It drops on the pavement, and Amy smiles. Peralta groans, sound only slightly incongruous when filtered through the voice modulator of the Iron Dude suit.

“You’re the worst, America. All I wanted to do was even out the distribution a little, fight the power, you know?” Amy rolls her eyes.

“Then write a letter to your Congressman, Peralta. And stop calling me that.” He comes back to Earth, and steps forward.

“Stop calling you what, America? It’s your name, isn’t it? Tell me, did your parents know they were visionaries, or did they just assume they were when they named you. I mean what a coup for the propaganda: Captain America’s legal name literally being America Santiago.”

“Like I told you the last like fifty times you’ve asked me that, no my parents are not prophets, or fortune tellers nor are they actual fortune cookies you can purchase from Panda Express for three dollars,” Amy says with only a little hint of exasperation creeping into her voice. She forces down a distressing urge to place her hands on her hips. “And only my friends can call me by my first name.”

Iron Dude gasps, placing his hands over his heart. “I thought we had something, oh Captain my Captain! Was it all.....a lie? Say it ain’t so Cap-i-tan!”

Amy rolls her eyes. “I’m surprised you’ve even read Walt Whitman.”

Peralta cocks his head. “Who? I was quoting that Robin Williams movie, you know the one with the kids who stand up on their desks?”

She blinks. “The Dead Poets Society?” Peralta nods. “Yeah, that one! My eighth grade English teacher showed it to us ‘cause she wanted to like, inspire everyone to read poetry and crap but we all kind of just spun in circles and jumped up on our desks.” He strokes the chin of his helmet. “I think she got fired after the principal caught us playing leapfrog on the tables.”

Amy thinks she can be forgiven for throwing her shield. She takes a perverse pleasure in watching the way it makes stupid Peralta stumble backwards, and the hollow sound his Iron Ass makes when it touches the ground. She catches the shield when it boomerangs back and cocks her head.

“Jake Peralta,” she begins. “You have the right to remain silent, everything you say can and will be used against you in a court of--”

He rises, brushing himself off. Amy debates the merits of actually engaging in a fight, looking around for a moment as she performs a cost-benefit analysis in her head. Pros: she gets to bash in his stupid looking suit. Cons: they always manage to take down a building or two, and then Amy has to clean up the rubble while the Times takes a bunch of candids for the print edition and Snapchats the rest.

Their Snapchat following has shot up through the roof, mainly because Amy reached a deal where she’d give a quick interview while she worked if the photographers made sure not to publish the dorkiest looking pictures they take of her. She knows what she looks like in battle, and the way she grits her teeth is definitely not something she wants to see on the front page of her Sunday Edition.

Amy checks to make sure Peralta doesn’t have anything but his suit on him, and throws her shield one more time. She smirks at the satisfying bang, and hope it really hurts when he starts flying again, waving as he jets over her head.

“This was fun and all,” he says, “but I’ve really got a prior engagement. Byeeeeeee”

Amy barely resists showing her middle finger, but most of her impulse control right now is coming from the small child she can see staring across the street. She notices people staring, most likely curious at why she let a criminal fly off into the sunset.

“Money’s a little tight in Albany,” she says to the crowd. “No one really wants to pay for another fallen building...and he left the money, right?”

Everyone laughs, nodding their head at her explanation. Amy starts picking up the cash on the ground, and wonders if she should have made better life choices. Ones that wouldn’t end up with her using a very expensive vibranium shield to hold hundred dollar bills she’s picking up off the road.

“Captain America! Oh my god, Mom, it's Captain America!” Amy turns to see the little girl jumping up and down across the road. “She’s the coolest, oh my god do you think she’ll sign something for me?”

Amy smiles faintly and turns to face her adoring fan, crossing the street to give her a hug and an autograph. Maybe a little clean up isn’t the worst thing in the world after all.

She looks back at the road, notices the milling bank executives and groans.

Fucking Peralta.
