Super Fanfic Rec List -- Iron Dad Edition (because I just wanna share the love)

I’ve had such a blast reading fanfic of the IronDad and SpiderSon variety over the last 6 months or so, and I thought I’d just make a rec list of some of my favorite stories.  Most of them are angsty, with whump and hurt/comfort because that’s what I live for.  

This is in no particular order or in any way complete because there’s just way too many amazing fics/authors in the Iron Dad fandom, but it will still be hella long, so....here goes! 

First off, @yellowdistress:

What We Are series - Bio-dad Tony series that goes all the way through Infinity War.  Endgame AU.

Someday I’ll Make it Out of Here series - Adoption AU!  It’s so good.

The Missing 92 Days - A take on HYDRA Peter that destroyed me emotionally.

Reviving Peter Parker - This about killed me.  Peter actually died during his fight with Toomes and SHIELD brings him back a la the TAHITI project like they did with Phil Coulson.  

A Sailor Went to Sea - Gut-wrenching Endgame fix it.  

Double, Double

@losingmymindtonight:

Webcams and Webshooters series

I Never Lived ‘Til I Lived In Your Light series - !!! TISSUE WARNING !!! Peter dies, but there’s another one shot with a happier ending if you need it.

And You’ll Blow Us All Away - Adoption fic!  A lovely one at that.

5 Times Peter’s Mental Illness Made Him Stumble And The 1 Time He Refused To Falter - I really love a well-depicted take on mental illness, and losingmymindtonight delivered 100%.

If You Can’t Catch A Breath (You Can Take The Oxygen Straight Out Of My Own Chest)

Cyanide? In My Shawarma?

@justme--emily:

The Guardian - Adoption AU with a lovely Loki and Peter friendship!

Radioactive - Peter endures the after effects of the spider bite, and scares bio-dad Tony to death.  Lovely, lovely, lovely.

The Good Fight - Peter gets hurt at the airport in Germany instead of Rhodey.  

@iron--spider:

ever in your favor - Hunger Games AU and an epic work of art!  

Lazarus, come forth - The Endgame fix it before Endgame.  Peter will break your heart.

dear mr. fantasy

this isn’t a game - Highly underrated fic based off the PS4 Spider-Man game.  I’ve never even played the game, and I loved this story.

what if there is no tomorrow? - This story actually made me kinda like Justin Hammer, if you can believe it.  

blindness

@tempestaurora:

hydra’s not a home series - HYDRA Peter, and also bio-dad Tony and bio-mom Pepper!

i’ll find you in the drift - Pacific Rim AU, and I have never seen PR, but I adored this so much.

it’s okay, we’re okay [whumpvember 2018] series

@jolinarjackson:

Lights To Guide You Home series - Another adoption AU.  They are my weakness, and this is one of the best out there.  

... and when you can’t crawl ...

Damaged At Best (Like You’ve Already Figured Out)

@blondsak:

No Life But This

come morning light (you and I’ll be safe and sound)

Burying Grounds - Eeeek!  Tony has to choose between saving Peter or Pepper and it hurts.

hold on, hold on

Something the Soul Needs

@madasthesea:

turn back the clock (and I’ll try again in the morning)

when my body won’t hold me anymore (where will I go)

They have so many other lovely looking fics--including an adoption au series (which I, of course, love), but I just haven’t gotten around to reading them yet.  I’m pretty sure anything they write is golden.  :)

@signofuncertainty:

It’s Always the Little Things

I’m sure their other fic, The Third Option, is fantastic and I really, really wanna read it but I’m trying so hard to wait until it’s complete!  It’s really difficult to wait, though, tbh....I may give in soon.  

@upcamethesun:

Twelve Days Of Peter Parker - So cute and fluffy, and then it kills you at the end.

5 Times Peter Made Tony Laugh Out Loud

5 Times Tony Didn’t Need To Worry About Peter

5 Times Peter Pretended To Be Tougher Than He Was

@frostysunflowers:

Between how it is and how it should be - This story made me love a Peter and Bucky friendship.

@kitcat992:

Identity Theft - This was one of the very first Iron Dad fics I read, and it was a doozy.  Full of whump, medical accuracy, and hurt/comfort!  The author is posting a sequel now, too: Identity Crisis.  :D

For Pete’s Sake!

@camelot-queen:

Goner - A perfectly heartbreaking kidnapping fic, but heed the warnings!

Who Saves The Hero

Never Meet Your Heroes

i’m the satellite (and you’re the sky) - Tony is Peter’s bio-dad but Peter doesn’t know it.  I haven’t actually finished this yet, but it’s good.  So, so good.

@peter-stank:

built from scraps - YOU GUYS, this is one of the best fics I’ve read on AO3.  It’s a ‘Tony gets dusted instead of Peter’ AU, and it’s got such an amazing dynamic between Peter, Pepper, and Morgan.  It’ll also make you tear up a few times, at least.

@geekymoviemom:

Sins of the Fathers - So, I’ve only read the first 5 chapters of this epic length (303k words@) adoption AU so far, but I’m LOVING it so I wanted to add it here.  They also have an even longer bio-dad Tony with added Stony bonus series, Pieces of Echoes, that they’re posting the 3rd installment to right now.  I’ll definitely be checking it out!

@too-many-bees:

let’s kick it

like a bridge over troubled water

@jbsforever:

it’ll be over (and I’ll still be asking when)

@tnyystark:

where the memories reside

@whumphoarder:

Quieting the Void series - Peter kinda has an eating disorder due to the spider bite, so take care if you read!

Poison Apple - Loved how medically accurate this was, and Ned’s reaction to Peter’s condition was heartbreaking.

@seek-rest:

It Hurts to Become

Someday We’ll Know - This is a Walk to Remember AU, so there’s MCD.  I’ve gotten about halfway through, but I can only read it when I’m in the right mindset.  But it’s lovely and so well done.  

This author has so many fics that I’m sure are amazing, and they’re on my ‘to read’ list when I’m in the mood for beautiful Spideychelle stories.

@caraminha:

The Primary Reason Tony Stark Would Throw Down With an Anti-Vaxxer in the Street - Hella scary depiction of Peter with tetanus, and it’s SO GOOD.

@tonystarkstan:

it all comes back to this

skeletons series

to build a home series - I love recovery fics, and this was a beautiful story of Peter dealing with the aftermath of being snapped and coming back.

lay your weary head to rest

@foolscapper:

Exploding Head Syndrome - Everyone comes back when the snap is reversed, but Peter is sort of catatonic--stuck between the living world and the soul stone where he’s with Gamora.  It’s such a lovely fic.

@alice-in-ink:

It’s a Little Bit We Do

Danger Pizza

@legalassie:

oh, darling - Peter’s kidnapped and Tony frantically searches for him--one of my favorite things.  Peter uses his smarts to help him get out of the situation, too, which is also one of my favorite things.

don’t think about tomorrow. 

@blackwatchandromeda:

Broken Thoughts (I Remember Everything)

Leave Me to Dream

A Nightmare to Remember

@emma--anacortes: 

Accepting the Tides - Here I am with another adoption AU.  Can you see a pattern yet?  I love them, and this one has danger and whump and comfort as well.  

@ardenskyedarcy221b:

they are standing in the garden - This hurt.  Several times the author had me tearing up and there’s a few lines that will stay with me forever.  It was just immensely lovely to read.

@iamallyetnotatall:

At the Start of the Universe - This was so much better than I was expecting! Peter is an Angel, and he knows Tony from the very beginning of the universe. It’s different, but absolutely gorgeous.

@starktowr:

somewhere outside my life - I don’t wanna say too much, but just read this.  It’ll break you and you’ll love it.

@jessicagoddamnjones: 

too bad (but it’s the life you lead)

@silver-bubbles:

The Fire’s Out (But Still It Burns)  

@day-dreamer176:

Like A Strike of Lightning - I kinda took this as a demonic possession a la Supernatural, but I don’t think it actually was.  Either way, it was fantastic.

fifty-four

five, tops

The World Stopped

@ambivalentmarvel:

Into His Fold series - Where Thanos brings Peter back from the ashes to make him into his new son (a la Nebula and Gamora).

@notaparty-trick:

Doom and Gloom - A ‘Peter doesn’t get dusted’ AU, filled with whump and Iron Dad and an awesome Carol Danvers.  Angst!!!

Dust and Blood - Peter is hurt much worse when Toomes drops the building on him.  More angst!!!!  This author does angst very well.

@ema--vee:

You don’t have to hold your head up high - Peter can’t thermoregulate!  I love that trope.

@forensicleaf:

All the Things We’ve Lost (And All the Things We’ve Gained) - This one gutted me, and then made it better.  But there’s pain to be had before the comfort!

They just posted the first chapter of a new WIP that looks AMAZING, too: Can’t Part the Sea, Can’t Reach the Shore.

@plnkblue:

foolish, fragile spine - Peter’s severely injured in his fight with Adrian Toomes and Tony finds him.  

@helloitisiafellowgay:

god did not craft us as altars, but as dying gods - Okay, guys.  This one is heavy.  It deals with Skip coming back into Peter’s life, and it’s not pretty but it’s handled superbly.  It’s a tough read, but one I definitely recommend if you can handle it.  Take care of yourselves first and foremost, though.  <3

~ ~ ~ I’m not sure if the following authors have a tumblr, so I just linked their AO3 pages ~ ~ ~

eccentric_artist_221b:

Only for a Little While - This is a Titanic AU, and it’s AMAZING.  There’s several scenes that just took my breath away and brought me to tears (not an easy feat). They’re also working on a WWI sequel!!!!

tiaylasglass:

the one who made it out - Short, simple in a gorgeous way, and poignant.  

And finally, I thought I’d humbly add my own little contribution to the fandom.  So far, I’ve only written the one fic, but I hope to write more in the future!

@ghostinthebau:

For Want of a Dad (in need of a son) - There’s a bit of blood, and a very distraught Tony at one point, so warning for angst and injury!

Again, this list is probably severely lacking, and if someone has a rec that’s not on here please please please reblog this and let me know!  I’m always in the mood for more fics.  

And I hope anyone reading this finds something they enjoy!  

I’m sure you will.

[wellhalesbells]

I see you reblogging some comic stuff an I was wondering if you have a favorite comic or favorite character or ship?

this ask is from so long ago but [DEEP BREATH IN] i’m finally going to answer it, nonny.  finally.  i kept wanting to read a little bit farther in my comics stack because.... maybe i’ll like that and will regret not having recced it, i just hafta--get--to it, see?  and, honestly, i’m still there BUT, come on, i’ll never be caught up because that would mean comics would just have to stop coming out and i would be sad forever if that happened, SO

i’m not even going to pretend like i can narrow this down to one comic.  (one ship?  sure, that’s spideypool.  one character?  sure, that’s the merc with a mouth, the regenerating degenerate, wade motherfucking wilson.  but one comic?!)  there is just straight-up too much out there to make a definitive ‘yes, this is it, this is THE ONE ™ ’ statement.  instead, uh, let’s break this shit down, yeah?  (super special secret bonus round, will note all lgbt+ rep and standalone comics.)  in no particular order, here the frig it goes!

HORROR

infidel, by pornsak pichetshote and aaron campbell.  in case you haven’t seen this on every 2018 best list ever, here it is.  and, yeah, it was good.  a muslim-american main character living in a haunted apartment building where the entities feed off the xenophobia of its occupants.  if that’s not a fucking modern horror story i don’t know what is.

spread, by justin jordan and kyle strahm.  THIS IS ONE OF MY NEW AND ALREADY ALL-TIME FAVORITES.  what an awesomely weird and epic story.  the spread is an uncontrollable, unstoppable monster-making force that humanity accidentally unleashed by digging too deep.  it infects everything it touches and basically all of humanity is running from quarantine to quarantine just hoping for the best.  and speaking of hope.... she’s a baby, rescued by no, and the only thing that’s ever been able to stop the spread.  also, no’s gay?  and i just DID NOT see that coming.  it seems like it’s going to be such a formulaic, bro-y story about the action hero who kisses the face off his girl (her name’s molly and she’s batshit insane and amazing) and instead, nope, it is not that at all.  lgbt+ main characters.

the black monday murders, by jonathan hickman and tomm coker.  hate capitalism?  think all the rich and powerful are evil, soul-sucking monsters?  [obnoxious, low-budget commercial sound effects] MAN, HAVE I GOT THE SERIES FOR YOU.

the beauty, by jeremy haun and jason a. hurley.  i just started this recently but so far, oh my good golly gosh, i looove it.  a sexually transmitted disease that makes you conventionally gorgeous.... at least before it explodies you.  [wide, creepy smile]  the art is gorgeous, the characters are aces and i am very, very pleased so far.  lgbt+ minor characters.

the great divide, by ben fisher and adam markiewicz.  this?  was a COOL idea.  the execution stumbled a bit but, gosh, was it neat.  it’s post-apocalyptic where touching another person will literally kill.... one of you.  the survivor then absorbs the memories of the person who dies, taking on a ‘rider.’  some people collect them, some people go mad, some form a bond, all have the side effect of dyslexia.  like i said, neat as all get out.  lgbt+ minor-ish/main-ish character.  standalone.

revival, by tim seely and mike norton.  a rural town in wisconsin experiences ‘miracle day,’ where the dead rise again.... except, they were kinda already mourned and buried and this is really just fucking up the status quo.

the woods, by james tynion iv and michael dialynas.  a high school gets picked up and plopped down in an entirely new, and wickedly hostile universe.  it’s all survival and alliances and seeing what you’re really made of when it comes down to it.  lgbt+ main characters. 

clean room, by gail simone and jon davis-hunt.  a cult, a journalist and a clean room walk into a bar...

anya’s ghost, by vera brosgol.  you think it’ll be a cute story of a girl and her ghost.  HA HA THAT IS NOT WHAT HAPPENS AT ALL, OKAY.

FANTASY

rumble, by john arcudi and james harren.  SCARECROW WARRIOR GOD, SCARECROW WARRIOR GOD, SCARECROW WARRIOR GOD!!!  okay, first off, the art in this?  pushes every friggin’ button i’ve got, and many i did not know i had.  second, this book is so fucking fun.  it’s mythology that’s balls to the wall ridiculous, funny, and features a main character whose life motto is basically: ‘do i have to?’  infinitely relatable and then some.

heathen, by natasha alterici and rachel deering.  UGH, ONE OF MY FAVORITES.  the art is just horribly, horrendously gorgeous and it’s LESBIAN VIKING MYTHOLOGY, OKAY.  OKAYYYY???   lgbt+ main characters.

the wicked + the divine, by kieron gillen and jamie mckelvie.  one of my favorite ever series right here.  it’s a hella cool concept (gods reincarnating as humans every twelve years, and burning up their hosts in two), whip-smart and if you’ve ever met a human being who likes a pun more than kieron gillen i defy you to produce them.  lgbt+ main and minor characters.

batgirl, by gail simone and adrian sayaf and vicente cifuentes.  you know how people rave about gail simone?  there’s a reason people rave about gail simone.  honestly, i’ve never had much interest in babs.  i don’t tend to go for superheroes who don’t kill and i have even less interest in ‘the killing joke’ story line and i am convinced only gail simone could’ve done the recovery on that and she did a GLORIOUS job of it.

red hood and the outlaws, by scott lobdell and dexter soy.  (ignoring recent - and annoying - developments), this is my favorite of all the rebirths dc did.  scott lobdell is the only writer to have gotten the idea down of: okay, we’re starting over, i assume you don’t know anything but i also assume there are a bajillion people reading who know everything, and hit the perfect medium between those two things.  so if you want to start a jason todd run, you legitimately can here, and get all the found family, badassery, batman-teasing enjoyment there is to be had.

iceman, by sina grace and robert gill (covers by kevin wada).  classic super-heroing here and bobby’s first solo title.  he’s figuring out coming out while fighting (and flirting) with baddies.  sina really gets his humor and how truly wonder-awful it is!  lgbt+ main character.

spider-man/deadpool, by joe kelly and ed mcguinness.  watch those names there, those are your guys right there, period.  they looked at the void of a spider-man/deadpool series and filled it with absolutely everything you could possibly want for the pair (sans a hardcore make-out sesh, though they did get a few variant covers with some puckered up lips in there!)

limbo, by dan watters and caspar wijngaard.  a fusion of 80s aesthetics, voodoo elements and a noir tone.  just some remarkably cool shit in this.  the ending, for me, left something to be desired but it was more than worth it to see worship via mixtapes.  standalone.

hawkeye: kate bishop, by kelly thompson and leonardo romero.  kate bishop is, apparently???, a super impossible character for a lot of writers.  kelly thompson is not one of them.  kelly thompson is my favorite kate bishop writer, actually, and the fact that she is ever not writing her is a gd travesty.

the unbeatable squirrel girl, by ryan north and erica henderson.  honestly, i’m so tempted to just stick this under ‘contemporary,’ because it really does just feel very... normal.  doreen’s navigating college, new friendships, and y’know... the squirrely-ness.  this had every opportunity to suck and instead it’s funny as heck, never takes itself too seriously, and is just pure good-hearted entertainment through and through.

wolf, by ales kot and matt taylor.  a paranormal detective and the-possible-antichrist go on a road trip.  people hated this comic and i don’t know how you can hate a comic that has a character called freddy chtonic who has tentacles for a mouth??? 

ms. marvel, by g. willow wilson and adrian alphona.  hi, you read ms. marvel because the world is a garbage fire and people are terrible and your cynicism is at an all time high and then kamala khan waltzes in and reminds you people generally want to help each other and the world improves when we work together and that thing optimists feel?  you’ll feel that for as long as you’ve got the pages open and that’s a magical thing.  lgbt+ minor character.

monstress, by marjorie m. liu and sana takeda.  psychic links with monsters, matriarchal societies, magic and witchery, half-human/half-animal (and other ratios) characters, all through a steampunk lens.  what’s not to like about that??

inhuman, by charles soule.  i love this series, i love the idea of being a total average joe/joanne, getting smacked in the face by a cloud of mist and suddenly having to figure out how to live basically a whole new life.  also, if you don’t fall madly in love with dante pertuz, i don’t even know what to tell you, my dude.

heart in a box, by kelly thompson and meredith mcclaren.  break-ups suck, but only because of that whole pesky broken heart thing, right?  so emma gives hers away.  problem solved, no?  standalone.

i kill giants, by joe kelly and j.m. ken niimura.  i didn’t cry my eyes out or anything.  did not.  standalone.

sex criminals, by matt fraction and chip zdarsky.  having sex = stopping time, which leads suzie and jon to the only logical conclusion: let’s rob some banks!

hawkeye, by matt fraction and david aja.  honestly there are a lot of other artist combos in this run but the only ones that are worthwhile are the ones that have fraction and aja’s names on them - sorry not sorry.

SCIENCE FICTION

black bolt, by saladin ahmed and christian ward.  saladin revived this character one hundred million percent.  there is absolutely a reason this was parading around all over ‘best’ lists when it was released.  it really, really did the damn thing.

saga, by brian k. vaughan and fiona staples.  this is the comic you recommend to people who don’t even like comics because it is that good.  like, my dad - who hadn’t read a comic since he was a pre-teen, eagerly awaits each new trade.  the world-building, the characters, the care put into every single solitary bit of all the things?  unparalleled.  lgbt+ minor characters.

frostbite, by joshua williamson and jason shawn alexander.  a post-apocalyptic story that has humanity dying from a plague that literally freezes you from the inside out.  very neat, very cold, very readable.  standalone.

descender, by jeff lemire and dustin nguyen.  this had a rough start, for me, with the main character of the first trade being tim-21, an android who is literally incapable of having the depth to be a lead BUT that does not last through to the next trade, thank god.  lots of space and found family and world-building in this to be had!  but you know how people rave about jeff lemire?  there’s a reason people rave about jeff lemire.

paper girls, by brian k. vaughan and cliff chiang.  the 80s and time travel and lifelong friendships.  it’s brian k. vaughan, you know it’s good, okay?  why do i even have to sell you here, man?  lgbt+ main characters.

injection, by warren ellis and declan shalvey.  this is another one on my list that started out a little rough but really appealed to me later on.  there was just a lot to absorb in that first trade but, once you’ve got it, the ride gets way, way smoother.   lgbt+ main and minor characters.

black science, by rick remender and matteo scalera.  this was a rocky start, because the main character is such an asshole but in a way where he can’t see he’s an asshole, he’s just a tortured genius who’s superior to all of you, don’t you know? but i am so glad i persevered because if that’s the set up?  the rest of the series is knocking him back down.  super scientist grant mckay finds a way to access the eververse, every possible reality the universe has on offer, and that’s really what causes every single problem that follows.  hard to cause the apocalypse and be an arrogant prick, ya know?

CONTEMPORARY

giant days, by john allison and lissa treiman.  this series is so funny and smart and warm.  these girls are so kind to each other and relatable and failing at adulting regularly and often and i love reading about them.  lgbt+ main character.

lumberjanes, by noelle stevenson and grace ellis and brooke a. allen.  this is funny and ridiculous and kind and cool and all other awesome adjectives and you should read it, fact.  lgbt+ main characters.

my brother’s husband, by gengoroh tagame and anne ishii (translator).  this is such a sweet story about acceptance and family tbh.   lgbt+ main character.

fence, by c. s. pacat and johanna the mad.  i mean... i need to see nicholas and seiji hook-up, i need that, stat.  stat means now!   lgbt+ main characters.

WEB/INDEPENDENT COMICS

long exposure, by kam heyward.  so mitch and jonas are my absolute faves and i love them to death and the author is so kind in that they actually put this up in print on indyplanet so i can read it the way i, personally, love to read comics (and - bonus! - support them with the monies).  lgbt+ main characters.

modern dread, by pat shand and ryan fassett (editors).  i’ve been trying to find more better horror comics lately so i’ve been kind of half-heartedly stumbling through kickstarter on the hunt and this was SUCH a great find.  it’s an anthology but more cleverly done than any other kickstarter anthology i’ve read, with a main story line that seamlessly strings together the would-be-disjointed ones.  this was really thoughtfully put together and really well done!  standalone.

heartstopper, by alice oseman.  a very sweet story about two high school-aged boys becoming fast friends, playing rugby and falling in love.  the two characters are mentioned as an aside in the author’s book, solitaire, and she became so invested in them that she wrote their backstory as a free webcomic.   lgbt+ main characters.

the pale, by jay fabares.  JUST started this (like, just a day or so ago) but i’m enjoying it so far!

hotblood!, by toril orlesky.  i mean... is it a webcomic about a centaur falling in love with his boss?  it just might be.  did i get a bound edition through a kickstarter campaign?  maybe.  maybe i did that.  who’s to say?   lgbt+ main characters.

the bay, by bbz.  life on mars through the lens of three young professionals who form an odd but lasting friendship.  lgbt+ main characters.

hard drive, by artroan.  is it a nsfw comic about a dude and a robot?  .... it might be a nsfw comic about a dude and a robot.  [coughs]   lgbt+ main characters.

seen nothing yet, by tess stone.  a nsfw comic about two amateur ghost hunters.  can’t imagine why i might be interested in that [coughs]   lgbt+ main characters.

captain imani and the cosmic chase, by lin darrow and alex assan.  i mean did i want a starship captain who can’t help but lust after the smuggler he’s chasing.  i mean, maybe i did.  maybe.   lgbt+ main characters.

taproot, by keezy young.  ghost falls in love with boy, boy falls in love with ghost, AND THEY LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER.  lgbt+ main characters.

always raining here, by bell and hazel.  just two boys falling in lurve.  lgbt+ main characters.

tagged by @bangbangbangtanx huehuehue ❤

1) Give at least one song which means a lot to you. And if you’re okay with it, tell me why.

Ok as much as I love my kpop, the song that means the most to me is Rolling in the Deep by Adele. You might think “damn that’s an old song” and it is but that’s why I love it. It was one of the first songs I ever listened to when I first discovered pop music in like the middle of grade school. I still remember it playing in the car as I went through the biggest change in my life. It was a really confusing and painful part in my life and every time I hear the song (which is rare because it doesn’t play on the radio as often anymore), it makes me smile because I think about how far I’ve come and how much stronger I’ve gotten. 

2) If you are free to do anything you want for a day, what would you do?

ummm lmao I have a lot of free time tbh but I waste it all on kdramas :))) for the sake of this question, if I was able to do anything for a day I would go to The City (San Francisco) with a few good friends and visit all the cute, local art shops and exhibits and gardens where I would bring my sketchbook and practice drawing plants and people and scenery and eat ALL the good food (aka not salads, sorry I will tolerate them on days I feel fat but today is not that day) and visit aesthetic coffee shops boba shops :))) and take a TON of aesthetic pictures.

3) Beaches or mountains?

mountains because they make me feel like a giant when I reach the very top and look at all the tiny houses and cars

4) What’s one thing you are passionate about?

Currently, it’s badminton. I joined my high school badminton team and I’ve met some really amazing people and gotten hella swol from all the running (the conditioning is no joke). I haven’t been this motivated to get better at something in a looooong time. BUT ALSO I LOVE ART AND WATERCOLOR AND PHOTOGRAPHY AND FASHION DESIGN AND MUSIC :)))

5) What is your favorite piece of art? (Can be a painting, song, book, etc.)

The one that comes to mind first is Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur. It’s an amazing collection of poems and it’s the only book that has ever and will ever make me cry.

6) What was your first impression of me? or why did you first follow my blog? Hahahahaha

Yo ur blog is legit so amazing like everything u reblog about BTS is gold like it’s either really funny or really adorable and whenever I see ur posts on my dashboard it makes me smile :) CUZ BTS IS AMAZING AND UR AMAZING ok

7) Give me one thing you absolutely love in nature and why. (i.e. moon, ocean, etc.)

MARINE LIFE OMG I LOVE SNORKELING AND OMG I LOVE STING RAYS OMG STING RAYS ARE MY SPIRIT ANIMAL BECAUSE THEY’RE FREAKING BIRDS OF THE SEA HOW COOL IS THAT?!?!? o and i love plants too :))) and trees and forests and flowers but i’d rather admire flowers from a distance because i have really bad pollen allergies (AHAHA i LOVE HOW U SAID ONE THING BUT I GAVE U A BILLION)

8) During your bad days, what cheers you up the most?

Some super unhealthy spicy popcorn chicken and boba (food in general) and talking ranting to friends about my problems.

9) What is your ultimate comfort food?

noodles

10) If you had the chance to spend a day with you bias, what would you do?

pass out and die lmao if i saw taehyung irl i would no longer be able to function as a normal human being 

11) How have you been today?

ehhh not the best but defiently not the worst

a friend is rlly getting on my nerves because she’s the type of person to only come to you when she needs you and she ditched me for some “cooler” people but it’s cool because i found my own friends and now she’s clinging on to me because the “cooler” people aren’t there for her and she was coming to me today for some comfort but i was rlly passive aggressive and gave her advice instead of comfort and now i’m pretty sure she’s mad and she’s proabably going to talk shit about me to all of my own friends soooooooo

but whatever she’s not important and not worth stressing about :)

um also my legs are hella sore from practice and i can barely walk properly

we did a one mile warm up, then a 3 mile run, then STRAIGHT SPRINTS FOR A WHOLE HOUR WITHOUT ANY BREAKS lmao i wasn’t kidding when i said our conditioning was no joke 

MY QUESTIONS:

1) What are the top 3 things on your bucket list?

2) Where is your “happy place”? Don’t have one? Think of one right now and tell me about it :)

♛ be gentle with me—

Please let this be the last one. My arms/hands are actually dying. I won’t accept any more after I post this. OTL||||||||||| //have pity on me please

my opinion on;

character in general: //breaths in deep I LOVE HIBARI KYOUYA!!!!!!!!! Honestly, let’s not get me started on how much I love him like... just don’t. It’s a rough ride, yo. Seriously though, Hibari is a fun character. I also really like his design like hello gorgeous piece of man //pet pet pets the screen ahahahahahaahah. I also love the gap moe kinda thing with how he loves his animals and they all love him back. It breaks my heart all the time like omg. NEVER FORGET THE REGENT HIBIRD. NEVER FORGET ROLL FREAKING OUT AS HE’S FALLING AND HIBARI JUST SMILES AT HIM LIKE ALKJSDFLAJSF HELLO 911? I NEED HELP.

Basically: My love for Hibari cannot truly be described with words and I’d need a readmore from the very first question if I were to go all out so let’s not. 

how they play them: Google voice-Did you mean: How does Hibari torment Haru? lolol okay jokes aside, the mun puts a lot of effort into rp’ing as Hibari. Whenever I see him on my dash I like to take a moment to read. I like the way that he uses a lot of vocabulary and a lot of descriptions. I make a point to note this because I personally struggle with that. My style is more simplistic and I sometimes forget to use descriptions. Therefore I really like his writing style. Aside from that, I feel as though the style greatly reflects Hibari as a character. It suits him. 

He takes RP’ing seriously and that is very commendable. You can tell this is true with how much effort he puts into not only his threads but also his meme answers. The ones that ask about HC things, they are really long and indepth so I really respect that. I often go short on those bc lazy. I’m too lazy for my own good and yet for ‘truthful memes’ I’m like okay. //sits down and cracks neck. I’M READY. The Hibari played exhibits a lot of traits that I also believe him to have. Like though he is a rough guy to be around, he understands that one must at least be civil to the ladies. He understands that when there is no animosity being shown, he can try to be civil back. 

The fact that though he’s very aloof and seemingly uncaring, he does. He’s attentive in his own way and understands social customs. I just feel as though I can identify the Hibari to fitting with how I see Hibari so that really pleases me. He also is a bit different from how I’ve seen some other Hibari muses being played and again, VARIIIIEEEETTTYYY. GOTTA LOVE IT. Pretty sure I’ve talked about variety in like each and every single one of these memes. lolthe mun: FRRIIIIIIEEEEEND!! Since this meme requires brutal honesty, I will admit that I always struggle to remember the nickname. It’s Kiril/Kirill right? In my heart I call you both Lan and Hibari. Yes, much like I am Haru to you, you are Hibari to me. YEEUUUUP. I love talking to you on tumblr and on skype (when I can remember to log on lol). I always find it cute when you offer things like truffles and such. It makes me feel like i’m being spoiled a bit and that’s always a fun time. ^^ 

Whenever I reblog anything that looks like fun I know that I can expect to see you there in my ask eventually. (I was actually waiting for you to come in for this one XD) If I reblog anything that requires me to write out a drabble of any kind, I know for a fact with like 90% certainty that you’ll request one like you say often ‘because you are a greedy dragon’. I actually enjoy that since I love writing, particularly drabbles. I absolutely adore the ones that I write for your Hibari so it brings me much joy to write them. 

I particularly really like the way that you are affectionate, and you openly state that you love my Haru (and my extension myself) and to me that’s high praise. Anyone who loves my Haru just deserves all my love to be honest. So being told that I remind you of Haru just means so much to me like wow. Is this the Emmies? Where is my trophy? Of course, I always thought of you as Hibari as well so ironically we both remind each other of muses. 

do i;

follow them: HEEEEELLLL YEAAAHH!!!!rp with them: That I dowant to rp with them: If that is to mean would I like to rp with all kinds of threads including on other blogs? Sure sure! I’m always willing to try something new!ship their character with mine: //sweats bullets Okay, the mun himself knows that I absolutely love 1886, and every once in a while I get linked art and it just gives me life. Like yes. This is my legacy. Offer me tributes of 1886 art. Yes please. Good stuff. I’m pleased. 

Now in terms of shipping with his Hibari (which i���m sure that is what this question is really referring to) then I’m honestly kind of on the fence with it. I could see it happening, but at the same time-- I’m not too sure how well it would work out. For me, I need to like the character, get along with the mun, and feel a connection between the characters. So far, we have 2/3 of the criteria. I get along very well with the mun and I love Hibari. The way he’s portrayed in this blog also has a special place in my heart. Since these two are still kind of in the acquaintance stage I can’t really tell if they have a connection or not so I’d have to say that while I ship 1886, I don’t particularly ship our two muses together. If it were to happen, then I’m all for it. If not, i’m more than happy to just bug Hibari or allow Hibari to bug Haru. XD

what is my;

overall opinion: This is is kinda long isn’t it? Let’s use a cut this time: 

AHHHH my good friend Hibari who plays Hibari. //laughs

Really though, thank you for giving me the opportunity to talk to you and to interact with your Hibari. I don’t think I told you this ever, but since this a meme telling me to be ‘brutally’ honest, I gotta let everything I can think of out. 

Did you know that I originally thought that you hated me and I was just like ‘but whyyyyyyyyyy? QAQ’ The reason for this is because you did follow me, but then unfollowed me and followed again. To ONLY UNFOLLOW ONCE MORE. I was like ‘DUDE???? LIKE DECIDE PLEASE? MY POOR  HEART??????’ You did contact me later saying that you were having issues and then after that I was like: “Oh okay you’re not doing this on purpose? I can live.” I seriously thought you hated me to be unfollowing me so often. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL So yeah, I actually was very very afraid of you in the beginning like you don’t understand. 

Then as I got to know you, I was like ‘yo did person is like hella nice and hella affectionate? Hell yeah I’ll take truffles. Hell yes i’ll take bear hugs!!’ 

Hugs= instantly you raise up in the ranks of friendship. No joke.

I always find it a very comforting thing when people give out hugs, primarily if they are the ones to give out hugs first. It just makes me think: “wow this person likes me enough to initiate the hugging instead of me asking for one? 80!!!!!!!”

It’s always wonderful to see you enjoying the different meme responses I give. Either you laugh at things or you just find things really cute. I write things usually hoping for a particular reaction. Some answers I write looking for laughter, some I write hoping you’ll find them cute, etc. You always seem to zoom in on what I’m going for so I really appreciate that. 

We’ve also done a lot of talking in ask and on skype of various things and we feel the same way about various things so I trust you a lot as an RP’er to be fair to people. 

So all in all, I’m very VERY happy that I’ve met you and i’m absolutely always grateful that you were willing to give me and Haru a chance. 

ANYONE WHO LOVES HARU OR GIVES HARU A CHANCE INSTANTLY GETS MY LOVE 

//chucks chocolate at you

Never forget, no matter what happens in life, remember that Haru and I are always cheering you on! Do your best, me friend!
