Because someone already asked those questions about your fav anime/manga, can I ask your top 5 favorite western animations (can be movies or series)? Why love them?
Certainly you can dear anon ^7^
So some of my favourite western animations of all time include
1) Tangled
Why do I love it so much? Well it has been my absolute comfort movie since I was like 10 years old and watched this movie in theatres with my older sister. I also highly relate to Rapunzel, both due to her personality and her experiences with Mother Gothel. Also to this day I fully stand by the believe that Flynn/Eugene and Rapunzelās relationship is the single most romantic and beautifully written Disney couple in this studioās entire history. Lastly: THE ANIMATION IS GORGEOUS! And I think few people understand just how ground breaking this movie was in terms if 3D animation as back then animating hair, and most importantly that amount of hair that Rapunzel has, was a nightmare to animate in 3D, so the Studio had to essentially come up with an entirely new animation program specifically for the protagonistās hair to move around in a natural way.
2) Lego Monkie Kid
Created by the Australian Studio Flying Bark Productions, the same Studio behind Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, this show means EVERYTHING to me. Because one thing rarely talk about on Tumblr: I am OBSESSED with Mythology. Greek Mythology, Roman, Mythology, Yoruba Mythology, Chinese Mythology, Norse Mythology etc. you name it. Like my bookshelf is nothing but Manga, history books and an astronomical amount of mythology and fairytale books. The show follows MK a hyper and optimistic boy as he is chosen to be the Monkey King Sun Wukongās successor and learning to be a hero. So as you may have gathered this show is not only inspired by chinese mythology but essentially itās equivalent of what Percy Jackson is to Greek Mythology. What I adore the most about this show are its characters and the GORGEOUS ANIMATION! I swear the fighting animation especially in this cartoon is smoother than butter!
3) The Owl House
Aka "What if Harry Potter was not written by a biggotā. If youāve seen the pinned post on my blog, you know that Lumity is one of my absolute favourite sapphic ships. But honestly this ship is only the peak of the iceberg for why i adore this show. The beautiful artstyle, Luzās character arc over the course of the show, EDA SIMPLY EXISTING AND BEING FANTASTIC, the beautiful world building and magic system, Emperor Beloz being an absolute irredeemable asshole in the most entertaining and bone chilling way. Srsly if you can dear Anon, give this show a watch.
4) Infinity Train
An Anthology Series who up until recently you could watch on Max HBO. This show is both delightfully funny and absolutely gut-wrenching and dark. The show essentially follows on a new set of characters each season who all end up getting trapped on a train with an infinite number of cars and they cannot leave the train until they essentially come to terms with and/or face some sort of trauma or other psychological issue they may be struggling with.
And as you may have guessed those themes of working through psychological issues is something that my mentally ill ass highly relates to. Not to mention these are some of the most well handled depictions of mental illnesses in animation i have seen in years. Especially given the show was originally targeted towards children and teenagers. I cannot recommend this show enough.
5) Nimona & Over the Garden Wall
I know you asked for only Top 5 Favourite western Animations but I seriously could not decide which one I prefered so they gotta share the spot. Hope you donāt mind š.
Starting with Nimona: I mean what else is there to say about Nimona that has not been said before? Fantastic and unique world building? Check. Absolute comedy gold? Check. Openly Queer characters? Check. Said characters also being absolutely loveable? Check. A heartfelt message for both adults and children? CHECK. Seriously this movie is just gorgeous and on Youtube FOR FREE! Like there is nothing stopping you from watching it right this instant.
Now onto Over the Garden Wall: I come from a country where we donāt typically celebrate Halloween. So due to a lack of direct cultural ties to Halloween I never truly had any super strong interest in Halloween movies and never had the urge around October to bundle up in a blanket and watch those classic Halloween movies and shows, like some of my friends do. The most I did was carve pumpkins with my sister and drink hot cocoa cuz itās genuinly fun. Until this Mini Series came along. The atmosphere just absolutely perfectly manages to capsulate the feeling of autumn and the eeriness of that season. Far more than any other Halloween Classic in my humble opinion. Also again Iām a huge mythology Nerd and this show is basically Danteās Inferno for children in very weird way. But yes ever since this show had come out I instantly rewatch it the second the leaves start to fall outside.

TIME FOR SOME POSITIVITY!āāāāACCEPTING
send š and i'll recommend an oc rp blog
@lycanstark: I cannot say enough how MUCH I love Logan. Nikko has done so much work to make Logan not only unique but he feels like a real person. Lore wise Logan feels like he belongs in the canon. That's to say nothing of how well Nikko does at creating a character who genuinely stands out among the crowd as even though Logan has SOME traits of his dad, he still feels recognizable on his own and to me that gives him so much more life & brevity. I also really enjoy Nikko's interpretation of werewolf lore in respect to Logan and it makes him and his world feel so complete <3
@iviaw: Another fave of mine, Vox had done such an incredible job not only subverting expectation with their lore regarding New Orleans as well as the creatures that live there! There is also the lore surrounding the rougarou as well, ever since following this blog I've been thriving off Vox's lore alone, and then of course there's Lincoln and his ties to not only a real historical based figure but how WELL he's fleshed out. Linc's personality and the way goes about the world and the characters around him make him and his entire lore feel all the more and I love him for it.
@aviiatrix: I ADORE CROW! But in all seriousness, not only is River and her canon divergence so intriguing. Fallout has my heart but the way that Crow expands and develops the lore just feels so wonderful! I also REALLY love how interesting River as a general of the Minutemen. I feel like so many people sleep on the Minutemen as a whole but Crow not only took the time to explore them but collaborated with me and helped me enrich the canon I already developed for it. Not to mention I ADORE River as a muse, her demeanor and the way she handles thing and how layered she is brings me SO MUCH JOY OK.

have any tumblr tmg fans seen the sanguinare speculation? iāve seen discussion on the subreddit - apparently there were postcards given out at the merch table last night with a qr code leading to this websiteĀ (front of the postcard was the image from the website). folks on the subreddit are thinking it might be a surprise album drop, especially considering how long itās been since they last released new music & the original plan for dark in here.

rewatching s3 e1 of leverage is like. top ten pictures taken moments before a disaster (eliot realizing he hasn't escaped moreau's influence over his life and that from here on out he will be living with either the inevitability of the team finding out about his past or the reality of them having found out). rewatching the rest of season 3 is like watching him be put through a slow motion hydraulic press. it's soooooooooooooooo

listen. i always liked werewolves more than vampires, and thatās because i just never really got the appeal of vampires - i was like, vampire-neutral. happy they existed because i know how much my friends love them. so iām fairly certain the absolute first thing i said when i surfaced from reading @thebibliosphereās hunger pangs: true love bites is āi get it about vampires now.āĀ
i absolutely did not go into reading expecting to adore vlad as much as i do, but oh my god, is this what enjoying vampires has been like for the rest of you this entire time????? why did nobody tell me! seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i cannot recommend reading this enough, iām never going to shut up about how much i love this book, & yes, thatās fully with the intent of being a fandom pied piper & dragging you all into this interest with me.

september fic recs!
hi hi hi! this is my first fic rec list, and i am so excited to share it with you all! here's my little collection of my favorite fics/imagines/things that won't leave my head at the moment, enjoy!
*my blog is 18+, and so are most of these stories, minors, shoo*
eddie munson
worlds apart by @munsons-maiden - a heartbreaking, yet still fluffy au where you're a victim of the mind flayer, and it's sole survivor during starcourt. eddie's path crosses with yours, and you fall head over heels, but vecna has other plans. you have to put your fears aside to save eddie from jason and his crew, all while trying to fight vecna's grip on you. (i cannot recommend this series enough. it had me crying, laughing, and kicking my feet like a kid in love. a must-read eddie fic!)
days of the week by @munson-trashcan - a series where you and eddie are enemies.... who like to take to take your hate out on each other.... by fucking each other. (this series is phenomenal! the twists may have broken me, but i would pay anything to be able to read it all again for the first time.)
pile of polaroids by @creme-bruhlee - series summary: eddie gets a great idea to take pictures while he fucks you, and you can't say no to an offer like that. (i've read this upwards of ten times and i am not ashamed, it's that good.)
encore, ring, and star by @mypoisonedvine - a trilogy where you're a rockstar, eddie's a groupie, and (sexual) chaos ensues. (this is one of my favorites aus of all time, and i ate this shit up like i hadn't eaten in ten years. highly, highly recommend.)
love letters by @creme-bruhlee - series summary: after you receive a series of anonymous love letters, eddie has a confession to make that might make or break your whole friendship. (SO cute. i want to squeeze eddie's cheeks in this and kiss him until he can't breathe.)
you made me hate this city by @marvelsswansong - series summary: It was just a stupid bet. A way to prove Jason and his asshole friends wrong, to finally get under the blondeās skin. It was never supposed to end with Eddie falling in love, nor with him laying on your doorstep with bruised knees, begging for your forgiveness. (adorable, heartbreaking, funny, everything you could want. it'll break your heart, but put it right back together in the end.)
the price of a kiss by @spiderrrling - summary: You start trading Eddie little nick knacks for kisses. (the definition of tooth-rotting fluff if i've ever seen it. seriously the cutest thing ever.)
dealer's choice and double down by @ohcaptains - your dealerās always been a bit sweet on you ā giving you deals and letting you try out new shit. he even lets you make house calls! and pick the music, and sit on his lapā¦andā¦Ā
angel face by @sunflowergirl522 - summary: Eddie takes Dustin to pick up his sister from the airport and is surprised with seeing his long ago best friend.Eddie takes Dustin to pick up his sister from the airport and is surprised with seeing his long ago best friend. (i cried over how fucking precious this story is. i also now call my cat "angel face" because of it.)
what are friends for by @munson-trashcan - summary: Eddie has always come to you, his best friend, with all of his problems, but his latest one might just wreck your friendship
can i borrow your bed? 1 and 2 by @hard-candy-writing - you just got your first vibrator and are eager to try it out, but your house has thin walls and no privacy. luckily, your best friend eddie has graciously offered his room to you.
made for lovin' you by @xechowritesx - summary: after years of silently pining for your best friend, you finally accept a date at your favorite dive bar. but things never go as planned, do they? alternatively, jealous eddie, too many whiskey shots, and a friendship shattering, almost confession that leads to some delicious smut.
masterlist from @peterthepark - this one's a masterlist link because i don't want to make this post a decade long by listing all of the eddie fics from them! so damn into you and little witch are my top two, but i cannot express enough how good everything is.
masterlist by @indouloureux - same as the last! everything is brilliant and you should read it all.
catholic!reader x eddie munson by @prettyboyeddiemunson - another masterlist link because i can't get enough of these ideas.
steve harrington
sweet peach by @s-brant - summary: An inside joke started by Eddie turns into torment for Steve when his girlfriend, Y/N, joins in on it. On a night out with their friends, his long-buried frustration comes to a head.
curiosity is killing me by @thefreak-thebanished - summary: When sleepovers with your best friend become a ruse for her sneaking her own boyfriends in, it's not your fault that the only other distraction is her brother...
steddie
meddle about by @peterthepark - summary: back home from school, you recount about your time away in college with steve and eddie, leading to a sexual proposition that you never wouldāve expected.
no i in threesome 1, 2, 3, and 4 by @corrodedhawkins - a game of truth or dare leads to a secret about you wanting steve too to come out.
wild parts 1, 2, and 3 by @xdirtyx - summary: You and Steve dated before Eddie asked you out and Eddie couldn't help but feel like there was potential for some fun on the horizon. Shenanigans ensue.
perfect penmanship by @carol-munson - prompt: 'What if reader accidentally found eddies book and saw all of the things he wants to do to her and planned for her when steve was gone for that weekend. She would be on edge every time he was near her and she would get a funny feeling in her tummy anytime he so much looked at her. Eddie probably takes notice and does little things to get her reaction.'
imagines/blurbs
steve and eddie fucking you at steve's summer house on spring break 1 and 2 by @sunflowersteves
eddie x chrissy x reader by @poppy-metal
nancy having a pretty pussy by @poppy-metal
love will tear us apart by @unfortunate-brat
scream au by @poppy-metal
chrissy x reader experimenting, perv eddie by @indouloureux

do you have any fav childe writers??
HOOOO BOYYYY sit tight nonnie bc this is gonna be a wild ride and I spent all afternoon and evening compiling this rec list. ENJOY HAHAHHAHA
surprisingly enough,,,, I don't really read fanfics that often, so I don't have too many authors that I can think of off the top of my head (Ā“-ļ¹-`ļ¼) but I shall give you my faves, along with my personal favourites from the fics that they've written!!!!!
starting off strong with @sohyuki, a childe kisser extraordinaire (albeit one who's eternally in denial lol):
mint is a very, very eloquent writer and I simply adore the exquisite vocabulary that she uses to word her stories!!!!!! the way she portrays childe's volatile personality is so beautifully worded that i am forever left rattling my cage bars bc of it (;Ā“ą¼ąŗ¶Šą¼ąŗ¶`) my fave childe fic of hers definitely has to be this one, but do check out her other works!!!!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT
next up is @xzho-writes, the sun to my moon!!!
there is something SO!!!!! ENTRANCING!!!!!!!! abt how ten writes childe. I simply cannot verbalise it. well I could but it'd be in keyboard smash and it wouldn't make sense to you so let's stick with verbal communication HAHAHAA. I literally cannot choose a favourite so here, have ten's whole masterlist for childe!!!! I wholeheartedly recommend every single fic in this post and I can and WILL reread these over and over DONT TEST ME
@byeol-ssi is another of my most heartfelt recommendations, as well as the stars to my moon and ten's sun <33
I was a byeol-ssi stan before we became friends and when I tell you there is such a lovely grace to the way she writes??? it's simply beautiful to read and I cannot stress how much I enjoy reading her work. my personal favourite childe fics are this one and this.
fun fact: I actually never cried while reading fanfics prior to stumbling across her work and ten's, but more often than not I end up sniffling or straight up bawling silently into my pillow when I read their childe fics. THEY'RE BOTH JUST THAT GOOD BRO
more writers who I wholeheartedly recommend for good childe writing but I'm too shy to personally tag them:
@.favoniuscodex: you literally can NEVER go wrong with a favoniuscodex fic. their characterisation of Childe is just TOP-TIER, NUFF SAID
@.withloveajaxx: a devout childe kisser who writes him so!!!! beautifully!!!! I'm pretty sure this was one of the og blogs that I followed on genshinblr when I was a tiny genshin player who had just newly discovered my love for said war criminal <3
@.tartagliaxx: if you love bingeing headcanons she is one of THE go-to writers imo. there are all sorts of scenarios and THEY'RE ALL SO GOOD?? like I'm normally a picky reader but I just sweep the whole masterlist when it comes to her writing bro it's just that good
@.monocaelia: I stumbled across their blog bc of their PokƩmon AU and well.... combine two things I love, and you will probably have my undying loyalty as a fan. but if you don't play PokƩmon, WORRY NOT, FOR THERE IS TONS OF OTHER STUFF TO READ AND ENJOY AS WELL
@.xiaowhore: ASCENDED level writing??? LOADS OF CONTENT FOR CHILDE???? need I say anything more??????? also she's one of the coolest writers I know on genshinblr SERIOUSLY
@.hvrbinqer: they have such a beautifully unique style of writing which just suits childe so well?? WHATS NOT TO LOVE pls I am just such a fan (;Ā“ą¼ąŗ¶Šą¼ąŗ¶`)
this became really long HAHAHA SORRY I just really love the way all of these writers show off their natural talents and how they portray childe!!! if you want more recs then I have a bunch more on my fanfic rec sideblog @mouunchilde, even if I don't get to read too often these days <3
#annie.nonnies#tellerluna.mail#this took forever bc I wanted to write a proper lil review + link to the blogs of every author I mentioned HAHA#overachiever pamore

I finished your red series and I loved it so much! Are you gonna rewrite them for Red (Taylor's Version)?
first, thank you so much!!
second, i will not be rewriting my red series. i just finished it as a countdown to the red tv release, so my writing/ideas haven't changed enough to warrant me going through the effort of rewriting. i'm working through the vault songs right now (here), but no i won't be doing anything else with the red album beyond the vault.
BUT. if you want more taylor swift or red-inspired content here's just a few lovely people i know who are writing/have written them. if anyone else wants added to this list lmk because i really don't mean to leave anyone out i'm just bad at remembering things. also if anyone wants me to remove them from here please let me know and sorry for the tag š
@samuel-de-champagne-problems is literally the queen of taylor swift inspired spencer reid fics. seriously, rosie's work is amazing and if you haven't checked it out yet then you should. i also know she's working on some of the vault songs too and her fic for 'run' was absolutely beautiful. (masterlist)
@sleepyspencer em has a ton of taylor swift inspired fics. they're all bookmarked on my phone and i can't wait until thanksgiving break comes so i can read them. i also know em has a 'message in the bottle' fic that's listed as coming soon on the masterlist and it sounds so adorably cute i cannot wait for it. (masterlist)
@boldlyvoid is currently working on a series called 'state of grace'. i have not read it yet, but it's bookmarked and i am so beyond excited. all of their work is absolutely beautiful so i just know this series is amazing too. i plan on reading it as soon as thanksgiving break starts. (series masterlist)
@imaginesfordifferentfandoms so to be honest i've never read anything by this writer but one of their imagines for this series came up in my recommended and i immediately bookmarked it. they're going through the red album and doing each song (including the vaults!!) though not everything is cm related. (series masterlist)
@radiant-reid this isn't red-related, but it's so good i had to include it. cate did a fic based on 'jump then fall' and it's so cute. i had to include it bc it was actually the first thing i ever read for spencer reid back before i had this blog (which means i need to go back and reblog/comment bc it's so gosh darn cute). (jump then fall)
@alltooreid are you seeing a pattern here? bc i am. i have not read holly's fics yet but they're bookmarked for break and i'm so excited to read them. she has a bunch of taylor swift inspired fics for spencer, including one for 'all too well' which looks absolutely heartbreaking. (masterlist)

Saw you were doing an ask spree so I have a question! What are your ultimate favourite Marvel fanfics? (Ao3 answers preferable!)
OOOH!!!Ā
I ALWAYS LOVE THIS QUESTION!! But itās also always SOO hard, because I have SO many fics that I ADORE! <3 <3 <3Ā
Okay okay. Since youāre asking for ultimate favorites, but since youāre also in a sense kind of asking for recommendations, Iāll do you a solid and give you a list of fifteen (which is really doing myself a solid because it means there are fewer that I have to narrow down).Ā
That said, if you really want my full list, go to my AO3 account and check out my bookmarks (and some of my works, if youāre interested!). Because there truly are a LOT of AMAZING writers out there. <3 <3Ā
Alright. Here goes nothing.Ā
Also, I am SO sorry this took me so long, but it took me forever to narrow down to fifteen, and even with THAT, I cheated. XD
Also also, fair warning, 95% of these are Tony and Peter centric. <3Ā
Also also also (lots of alsoās, oops XD), Iām gonna give a little bit of info on each one for anyone interested, but PLEASE, read all tags and warnings before you actually start reading, because some of these are a little rougher than others. (Btw, when I sayĀ āmajor warningsā, Iām referring to AO3ā²sĀ āmajor archive warningsā list.)
1. More Ancient Than Magic by @ironfamjamĀ
This is a mini Hogwarts AU that I absolutely ADORE and think about at least once a week. The way the author melds the two universes is incredible and so well done, and I quote it all the time.Ā One-shot, IronFam centric, featuring Ned and MJ, with special guest appearances from the other Avengers and Peterās classmates. No major warnings.Ā
2. Everybody Loves Skip by @baloobird
Okay, Kris is my favorite MCU fanfic author of all time, so youāll see her on here a couple of times. This is by far my favorite story of hers, and itās what made me fall in love with Interwebs. <3 <3Ā Multichapter, Peter centric, featuring Ace!Peter and Interwebs, with special guest appearances from Tony, May, and Tracy Leeds. Minor sexual harassment/non-con, but it doesnāt get too graphic.Ā
3. Ohana by @jen27ny
I read this story as a part of last yearās Irondad Big Bang, and let me tell you, I was SOOO invested. I got to the point where I had to send in play by play reactions because I was so emotionally invested. The story is so well told. <3 Multichapter, Tony and Peter centric, featuring Pepperony, Spideychelle, and minor Stucky, with special guest appearances from the rest of the Avengers, HYDRA, and my fast beating heart. No major warnings.Ā
4. Come, My Darling, Homeward Bound by @i-am-irondad
ANOTHER Irondad Big Bang 2020 story that I became OVERLY invested in to the point that I had to send play by plays in to the author. Itās a Room AU, and she NAILS each and every one of the character dynamics. I never even saw Room, and I loved it. <3Ā Multichapter, Tony, Peter, and Morgan centric, featuring the rest of IronFam, Spideychelle, and adorable sibling moments, with special guest appearances from Quentin Beck and my tears. Minor implied sexual harassment/non-con. (She also has a prequel and a sequel, just so you know.)Ā
5. The Lightning Strike by @booksxtvxsupernatural
Yet ANOTHER Irondad Big Bang 2020 story that hit me right in the feels. This is a canon-divergent post-Infinity War fic, and the way the author shows how events couldāve transpired is so realistic and beautiful. <3Ā One-shot, Tony and Peter centric, featuring Harley Keener and Nebula, with special guest appearances from IronFam, May Parker, and several other Avengers.Ā
6. Family Doesnāt End with Blood by @baloobird
This is a series of one-shots by my girl Kris based off of the Irondad Bingo prompts, so there are a lot of different prompts and themes, but they ALL rock.Ā Multichapter, Tony and Peter centric, featuring Ace!Peter, IronFam, and Interwebs, with special guest appearances from several other MCU characters. Warnings vary, so pay attention to the tags and read the notes.Ā
7. I love you more than anything (bio dad AU) by @iron--spider
Okay, so maybe this is cheating, because itās technically a series, but every fic in it is so good that I couldnāt possibly pick just one. I just love the whole series, because I love how the author builds their relationship. Itās so cute. <3Ā Series of one shots, Tony and Peter centric, featuring the rest of the Stark and Parker family and baby Peter, with special guest appearances from Obadiah Stane, James Rhodes, and Happy Hogan.Ā No major warnings.
8. sometimes, people just die (and sometimes, they donāt) by @snarky-drabbles
This one was for the 2019 Irondad Secret Santa (huh. No wonder so many of them are Tony and Peter centric. XD), and itās an amazing time loop story that takes place during Endgame and has an ending you might not expect, but it ROCKS.Ā One-shot, Tony and Peter centric from Peterās POV, featuring Pepper Potts and Stephen Strange, with special guest appearances from a whole lot of fighting. XDĀ
9. A Rite of Passage by @baloobird
Another ADORABLE Interwebs from my favorite person, because she made me obsessed with this ship and now I canāt stop. XDĀ One-shot, Interwebs centric (wait, did I actually find one that isnāt Tony and Peter??), featuring Ace!Peter and Bi!Ned, with special guest appearances from Brad Davis, Flash Thompson, and Betty Brant. Minor sexual harassment/non-con, but nothing graphic at all.Ā
10. Where Dreams are Nightmares in Disguise by @baloobird
This one was actually written for me, by Kris, so obviously, it made this list. I seriously cannot thank her enough for writing this amazing fic for me based on my prompt, and for writing it so well! I LOVED IT! <3Ā One-shot, Tony, Peter, and Morgan centric, featuring Pepper Potts and lots of LEGOS, with a special guest appearance from a really bad dude. No major warnings.Ā
11. harm and foul by @iron--spider
You know, thereās a lot of Tony protecting Peter out there, but sometimes, I just really wanna see Peter protecting Tony, and this is a GREAT example of that.Ā One-shot, Tony and Peter centric, featuring IronFam, Ned Leeds, and bada** mofo Peter Parker, with special guest appearances from Justin Hammer and a few Avengers.Ā No major warnings.
12. Sugar, Butter, Flour by @doctornineandthreequarters
Another one written for me, this time by the incredible Jaime for the 2019 Irondad Secret Santa, and I couldnāt have asked for anything better. She took my prompts to heart and created some BEAUTIFUL sibling bonding and I LOVE it!! <3 <3Ā One-shot, Peter, Harley, and Morgan centric (whoa. Another one without Tony. See? I have variety! ...kind of. XD), featuring Pepperony and adorable sibling love, with a special guest appearance from a Karen. No major warnings.Ā
13. Bite the Bullet by @baloobird
In case you havenāt figured it out, yet, I love you, Kris. XD <3 Another amazing ace story that gets me feeling all kinds of validated and loved. <3Ā One-shot, Tony and Peter centric, featuring Spideychelle, Ace!Peter, and Ace!Tony, with a special guest appearance from BFF Ned and lots of lovely ace acceptance. No major warnings.Ā
14. what is stronger than the human heart which shatters over and over and still lives by @lyssismagical
So, I started reading her works solely through Tumblr, and when I finally realized that she had an AO3, I went on there and bookmarked a TON of her stories immediately. This is one of her more recent ones, but itās one of my faves, even with all the whump (being Whumptober and all). It has a positive ending, I promise.Ā One-shot, Tony and Peter centric, featuring amazing BFF Michelle Jones, protective Peter Parker, and adorable little sister Morgan Stark, with special guest appearances from Pepper Potts, May Parker, and a lot of family love and support. Rape/non-con, but it isnāt super graphic.Ā
15. Peaches by @peterparkrr
This was yet another Irondad Secret Santa 2019 fic, and while this one wasnāt written specifically for me, I freaking loved it. Thereās so much tension and mystery in this, and I seriously thought I was gonna pass out reading it from all of my worry. But, luckily, it has a happy ending.Ā One-shot, Tony and Peter centric, featuring canon divergence and lots of references to other Avengers, with a special guest appearance from a terrible government.Ā No major warnings.
And thereās my top 15! But, because I said I was cheating, here are two bonus fics that cannot be found on AO3. I know you prefer AO3, but trust me when I say you cannot pass these up.Ā
1.Ā This fic by @loubuttons
This was posted directly to Tumblr, but I have it saved in screenshots on my phone and I re-blog it all the time because I absolutely ADORE it. I will always be down for Peter and Morgan fics, especially when Tony is involved, and this one touches my heart like no other.Ā One-shot, Tony, Peter, and Morgan centric, featuring protective big bro Peter Parker and Tony being an amazing parent, with special guest appearances from equally awesome Pepper Potts and May Parker. No major warnings.Ā
2. Heās My Intern? by losingmymindtonight (if they have a Tumblr, I donāt know it, so if anyone knows it, please find them and tell them theyāre awesome)
This one was posted on FF.net, and it was actually one of the first Tony and Peter stories I ever read, and it BLEW me away. This one is another series of one-shots, but each one is filled with soft Tony and Peter moments and I love it.Ā Multichapter, Tony and Peter centric, featuring Happy Hogan, Bruce Banner, F.R.I.D.A.Y., and all the hurt/comfort you could possibly want, with special guest appearances from Pepper Potts, May Parker, Ned Leeds, and several other Avengers. No major warnings.Ā Ā
Okaaaaay. I think thatās it??Ā
Wow. That took me FOREVER.Ā
And Iām not even sorry, because all of these authors deserve ALL of the credit I gave them.Ā
Thank you so much for asking this! I hope I didnāt bore you or babble too much. XDĀ
All of you should definitely check out these amazing fics! They 100% deserve the praise! <3 <3Ā
Thanks again for asking! <3Ā

Hello!! It is @rare-egg-hunt month which means we are officially celebrating all our Solas rare pairs!
If you're following this blog you may be somewhat aware I've been "painting" my eggs all through March. Starting next Monday I'm going to be pushing out a multichaptered story built around 12 of the prompts from the Rare Egg Hunt. It's called Cheating the Dread Wolf and will focus on the post-Trespasser love story of Maria Cadash, Solas, and Varric Tethras.
Maria Cadash hung up the Inquisitor's mantle for the Viscountess' crown, but she's unable to stop her desperate and impossible struggle to stop Fen'Harel from destroying the world both her husband and daughter inhabit. The fact Varric, Maria, and Solas are all madly in love with each other just means she may have enough of an edge to win this game.
In other words, everyone is poly and happy but first there's some shit they've gotta go through. I promise there will be angst, fluff, smut, dad Varric, dad Solas, and mama Cadash. Plus an absolutely ADORABLE baby as a treat.
I also have a playlist to go with it! Here's a list of all my songs and why I've picked them as a sneak peek!
Things That Stop You Dreaming by Passenger
If you can't be what you want You learn to be the things you're not If you can't get what you need You learn to need the things that stop you dreaming Oh the things that stop you dreaming
The PINING at the beginning of this story is outrageous. It is honestly a sequel to two fics, the first of which was written by the lovely @blarfkey who inspired, enable, and beta'd this entire project. (seriously. It would never have happened without her and I owe her so much for the idea and the love she's poured into it alongside me).
The two fics can be found in the series Three Liars Mend Broken Hearts on AO3. It shows the way Solas and Maria can't seem to stay away from each other and the ill advised sexy times that happens as a result (yes these are both smut with plot and feelings). So by the time we start Cheating the Dread Wolf they've already acted on their feelings even though they shouldn't and they're all a bit of a mess.
Rest of the playlist below!
Never Really OverĀ by Katy PerryĀ
Two years, and just like that, my head still takes me back Thought it was done, but I guess it's never really over Oh, we were such a mess, but wasn't it the best? Thought it was done, but I guess it's never really over
I revisit the theme of not being able to let go and move on a lot in this story - in both good and bad ways. Varric, in particular, is completely unwilling to give up on Solas no matter what. Solas is unable to let go of his past. Maria canāt let go of her distrust. Itās all a mess.
Power Over Me by Dermot Kennedy
So we hide away and never tell You decide, if darkness knows you well That lesson of love, all that it was I need you to see You got that power over me
This is such a good smut song. I will live and die on this hill. Itās on my smut playlist too. ANYWAY. This is a good song for Maria and Solas. Also. Smut.Ā
That Man by Caro Emerald
Ooh that man is like a flame And ooh that man plays me like a game My only sin is I can't win Ooh I wanna love that man
This is a recommendation from @blarfkey and is the quintessential Varric romance song. I picked this one for a very specific chapter where Varric in effect tricks Solas into a tea party with him and Varric and Mariaās daughter.Ā
Hold My Girl by George Ezra
I've got time, I've got love Got confidence you'll rise above Give me a minute to hold my girl Give me a minute to hold my girl
This is actually for a chapter that mostly focuses on parenthood and how it brings our trio together. Itās very angsty and heartwrenching and I love it so much.Ā
You are the Reason by Calum Scott
I don't wanna hide no more I don't wanna cry no more Come back I need you to hold me (You are the reason) Be a little closer now Just a little closer now Come a little closer I need you to hold me tonight
This is THE OT3 song and the unofficial theme song of this fucking fic. I have listened to it on repeat more than anything else on this playlist.Ā
Me and the Devil by the Fratellis
Tell one last beautiful lie for me Make all your promises rhyme for me Keep me in line but do it honestly Make it real, make it slow, stay alive for me Come on, babe where the line goes dead I'll be fire, I'll be rain, I'll be joy, I'll be dread Come on, baby don't be shy All I want is you and I Out on the street I'll be every face There'll be no man alive That can take my place
This song just gives me Solas related chills. I cannot with it. These two verses in particular scream Varric, Solas, and Maria. This is also on the playlist at approximately the part of the story where shit starts going down. Also another @blarfkey recommendation.Ā
Move by Saint Motel
This girl, this beautiful girl, with eyes the size of the o-o-ocean. This man, this dutiful man, he's got these mixed up emo-o-o-tions. I want it, can't have it. Oh I can hardly stand it. Oh what's a man to do... Gotta get up, I gotta get up. Move!
A recent addition to this playlist thanks to @paisleybees who sent this to me as I was writing a chapter that fit it PERFECTLY. I actually picture it as a Varric/Solas song for this work.Ā
MonsterĀ by Paramore
I'll stop the whole world, I'll stop the whole world From turning into a monster and eating us alive Don't you ever wonder how we survive? Well now that youāre gone, the world is ours
AnotherĀ āshit is getting realā song and another @blarfkey recommendation. This is a McFighterson Cadash song for sure. Itās also what I picture for the sole action sequence in this fic.Ā
Poison and WineĀ by The Civil Wars
You only know what I want you to I know everything you don't want me to Oh your mouth is poison, your mouth is wine You think your dreams are the same as mine Oh I don't love you but I always will
Enemies and Lovers. Enemies and lovers. Need I say more?! This is SUCH a good song for that trope!
SilenceĀ by Marshmello (featuring Khalid)Ā
I found peace in your violence Can't tell me there's no point in trying I'm at one, and I've been quiet for too long I found peace in your violence Can't tell me there's no point in trying I'm at one, and I've been silent for too long
Circling back around to themes of letting go and holding on. This kind of starts the happy ending bit of this work (YES I SWEAR THEREāS A HAPPY ENDING).Ā
This Yearās Love by David Gray
This year's love had better last 'Cause who's to worry if our hearts get torn When that hurt gets thrown Don't ya know this life goes on? Won't ya kiss me on that midnight street? Sweep me off my feet Singing, "ain't this life so sweet?"
HAPPY ENDING. A bittersweet but ultimately hopeful one <3Ā
Glitter and GoldĀ by Barns Courtney
Do you walk in the valley of kings? Do you walk in the shadow of men Who sold their lives to a dream? Do you ponder the manner of things In the dark? The dark, the dark, the dark I am flesh and I am bone Arise, ting ting, like glitter and gold I've got fire in my soul Rise up, ting ting, like glitter
This is for the epilogue. Itās called the Dread Wolf Cub Rises and I refuse to give any other details.Ā
BONUS
Problem by Natalia KillsĀ
I'm your dream girl This is real love But you know what they say about me... That girl is a problem Girl is a problem Girl is a problem problem
Bea Cadash shows up a lot in this fic with her background sweet angel boyfriend Cole. Thereās been a couple times where I need to write Bea and this is just the perfect song to capture her goddamn attitude.Ā
Anyway! Happy egg hunting!

Hi!! Its heathen!! I think I found the book that your title is referencing at my local bookstore, and it actually looks pretty interesting! 'Here, there be dragons' by James A. Owen, right?
It was kinda funny to go in there and see some books that I liked (The wheel of time series, I deifnitly reccomend it) and then see a book and was internally like 'Oh!! Quil!! I know someone who I could possibly call a dragon if they would like!!'
heathen! hello! I actually didn't know there was a book series with that title! Though I do completely understand why you would make that connection, as I have been very vocal about my love of dragons for a while! I mean I love monsters in general, but dragons are a kind of monster and I adore them!
the quote "because here there be dragons" is actually centuries old, and the myth is that old mapmakers would write this phrase (specifically "here be dragons") on parts of maps that were uncharted. I don't think any map has actually been found with this phrase (I think a globe was, though!), but it's really intriguing and cool to conceptualize. Kind of like how they would draw the Kraken and other monsters in the ocean for a similar reason to indicate danger! I am not an expert so don't quote me on all this btw, I just think it's fun and have a casual knowledge (partially form my dad who was a sailor in the coast guard).
however, while the quote in relation to maps and danger is really cool, that's not actually why I chose it! I first heard the quote (well, not the first time, but the first time I heard it and it really stuck with me) was in the last season of Black Sails, which is my favorite show of all time (I'm really picky about shows). One of the main characters, Captain Flint, says the line in a really emotion scene in the last season and I remember watching it and just going oh shit, and I haven't been able to forget it since. Here's a link to a gifset of the scene, and it's not the exact same as I have it in my bio but I seriously cannot recommend Black Sails enough. For so many reasons. The plot, the queer characters, the fact that the story literally wouldn't exist if it weren't for queer love, the politics, the way there's so many main characters and everything they do contradicts each others and is so true to themselves. Nothing will ever top it for me and all other shows have been ruined for me since because nothing will ever life up to the chokehold Black Sails had on me. It is a complex and darker story, so be cautious with it! But oh fuck I have never loved a show more.
Before I get completely distracted I will return to your point! It's so cool that you saw a book and thought of me! it didn't even occur to me that I exist to you guys outside of when we interact on tumblr, despite me mentioning several people I've talked to online when speaking to people irl. Also you saying you'd call me a dragon if I like reminds me of a specific interaction Meg and I had where they told me I was like the fandom librarian because I answered so many questions!! (here's the link!) I mentioned having a little dragon in my library, but I'd love to be the dragon too! I'd seriously leave behind this humanoid form if given the chance, and dragons are excellent!
maybe I'll check out that book though, just to see what it's about considering it's stolen my blog title! I say as though I was capable of complex thought in 2006.
#I want to rewatch the show now#seriously no other has ever had such a grip on me#my dad and I watched it together#and we watched every episode once#except for this one specific episode that had us so astonished and was so good we had to watch it twice#just to experience it again#gah!! i wish I could forget it all just to experience it for the first time#there are so many queer characters#and it's just casual#like they just are queer and it's normal#I always joked that you could never be mad about the queer relationships ending badly because so did the straight ones#no one got a happy ending#well#a few people did!!#kind of!!#not to spoil it#but thats one of the darker things about it#aeruagjn its so good#i want to rewatch it so badly#random#quil's queries#heathen nonsie

I LOOOOVE Your Fics!!!! So Much!!! But I am desperate for more soft Dadtcher content. Do you have any recommendations? preferably on AO3
Oh thank you so much! :DDD And I do! Some might have been recommended to me on this blog already/reblogged already so bear with me if the list seems a touch redundant but I hope you find something new!
Ao3:
-āWhat to Expect When Youāre On the Runā by @berryfartsart : (In Progress) This is such a wonderful fic and takes place in a more modern world and is about the prince (MJ) escaping from Vanessa with their baby. Be warned because thereās domestic and child abuse. Itās incredibly touching to see MJ interact with baby Harriet. I cannot stress the adorable here and how tender the love he has for Harriet.
-āHide and Seekā by @lemonadesoda : (Complete) This is a peckin adorable fic where Snatcher and Moonjumper end up taking care of Hat Kid and all three help each other heal. It warms my heart and thereās a Ferris wheel scene that causes me to become a pile of goo on the ground but itās okay because I can still type and share the sweetness! Also! Lemonadesoda has an art blog where she did some art for the fic too! I also recommend checking it out if you havenāt already!
-āBeware the Frozen Heartā and āChapter ???:: The Trial on Primus Primeā by @thewiltingdaisy : (In Progress) ARE BOTH INCREDIBLE and had me squealing with delight. Frozen Heart involves Snatcher helping Hat Kid keep a blast of the ice queenās magic from freezing her completely using his warmth and The Trial on Primus Prime is an adventure where all the characters gotta bust Hat Kid out of jail! Legally! Because they got a ghost lawyer and thereās a chapter that felt like the triumphant music that plays at the end of a court case in a phoenix wright game and I was living my best life while reading it, I tell you! Also on her art blog @doodleimprovement she has a Victorian Au which I love a lot and the latest update, Enough is Enough, At Long Last had me tearing up from the Dadtcher content. Very very lovely work.
-āChapter 3: Contractual Obligationsā by @cosmickouhai : (In Progress) Slowly becomes soft and Snatcher starts to act more like a dad but the emphasis is on the plot (which is wonderful if you saw my previous post where I was freaking out about it). But! It is a delight and a privilege to see Snatcher and Hat Kid trapped in a situation together and needing to work as a team to get out. Well crafted and wonderful!
RPs and I know they arenāt on ao3 but I LOVE THEM AND HAVE TO MENTION THEM BECAUSE THE DADTCHER IS TOO STRONG HERE
-ļæ½ļæ½ļæ½āāCoffeeshop Auāāā by @doodledrawsthings but specifically the post with the rp with @mysticdoodles of the first night of the transformation and very precious moments between father and daughter.
-āWeresnoodle auā by @fedoraspooky and @lovelycoris which is nonstop Prince and Hattie being the cutest father daughter duo and seriously there is so much kindness and love in this collection and I maybe reread them a lot and tear up every time I just see that thereās an update but donāt worry about it. Iām fine.
Okay.... thatās I think the most Dadtcher-centered content Iāve got. If I messed up any of the links or anything, let me know! I love these all very dearly so I hope they make you smile too!
#fic rec#long post#an ask in time#berryfartsart#lemonadesoda#doodleimprovement#cosmickouhai#doodledrawsthings#mysticdoodles#fedoraspooky#lovelycoris#okay uh i hope this okay#dadtcher#there are other fics i love too but i think these are like the softest DADtcher content so i hope it's okay#i tried to tag everyone who had a tumblr and surprise it was all of the authors i love#im vry shy and hope yall don't mind if you see this but also i love your work and uhhhhhhhhhhhh#ill stop talking now

Books of 2021 - February*
I had a much better reading month in February - well I feel better about it, there's not actually much materially different. I've also come to the conclusion I only adore books that make me sad - I do love a good cathartic cry...
Promise of Blood - Brian McClellan (Powder Mage Trilogy #1)
Unfortunately, this book didn't work for me - I found writing style a bit clunky and very utlitarian, the magic felt off with it's strange mix of styles (I'm still not over the magic food), and the characters felt a bit flat. As I much prefer character driven novels and it can massively turn me off a book if the characters aren't quite up to scratch which was sadly the case here. I just didn't care about Taniel, Tamas, Adamat, and so forth - it seriously impacted the stakes of the novel, especially when the action was repetitive and there were no quiet spots to off set the number of fight scenes/intense moments.
However, it's a decent opening novel for someone else, but it was a bit too plot heavy and reliant on the hard magic system. The magic felt gimmicky and clearly followed Sanderson's rules of magic without rationalising some of the limitations (I'm still not sure if the Priviledged gloves gave them magic or acted as a bridge? And why does gold stop the powder mages?) You can tell McClellan is one of Sanderson's students through his writig style and the way he constructs his world, characters, and magic system. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the right spot for me. It's a perfect reminder that just because a style works for me with one author, doesn't mean it'll work in another. I finished this book out of a baffled, addicted curiosity but I won't be finishing the whole trilogy. (Just to state again - it's a decent book, just not my cup of tea!)
How to Marry a Werewolf - Gail Carriger**
I loved this novella, in fact it's possibly my favourite Carriger story yet (and I'm now up to date with the entire Parasolverse!) It was a fun, touching romance that made me feel all gushy! Faith and Channing were brilliant romantic leads, exactly the sort of characters I fall in love with. The drama, the supporting cast, and character growth were exactly what I wanted and needed.
Carriger is my ultimate comfort read and this made me nervous approaching a book about Major Channing - he's not the most approachable of romantic heroes, you know? But I fell in love with him and Faith (I might actually like Channing more than any of the other male leads? Shocking!) Their growth together made my heart melt and I was so invested by their get-together I actually gasped out loud - I was far too emotionally attached for a 180 page book... I cannot recommend it enough, I was half convinced I didn't love the novellas (sorry Miss Gail, I like big books!) but this completely changed my mind on both novellas and Channing. Overall, I'm a very happy bunny and now I can restart the series all over again.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
I'm a woman of a certain age, I grew up with these books and, as such, they'll always have a place in my heart (and childhood.) However, I'm only including it on this list because I read it with a friend and to keep track of all the books I read.
Anne of Green Gables - L.M. Montgomery
This was so cute! I had so much fun reading this book, Anne is a precious sweetheart who deserved Matthew and Marilla. The flowers, whimsy, small domestic comedy, childish drama, and quite comfort were absolutely lovely. I fell in love with Anne's small world and then L.M. Montgomery broke my heart. I've never cried at a children's book so much and it was devastating (I knew it was coming but not in this book...) Absolutely fabulous!
Royal Assassin - Robin Hobb (Farseer Trilogy #2; Realm of the Elderlings #2)
I've talked about this book and series enough - safe to say I still love it, Fitz is our favourite idiot, I still fancy Verity, and the Fool is the best. See the rest of my blog for more thoughts!
Currently Reading
The Burning God - R.F. Kuang
The Hatmakers - Tamzin Merchant
Shadow and Bone - Laini Taylor (I know... I fell for the hype around the TV show... Teenaged me would have loved it though)
*Once again I have not proof read, not even sorry at this point (I proof read too much for uni
**In which I use too much punctuation, I just loved this novella okay?!

//Here we go, blog recommendations. Iāve been saving onto this one for the past few days and I am currently listening to a James Horner piece and feeling incredibly emotional and sentimental so here we fucking go.Ā
Some of these will be familiar but I donāt care, I love these people so much and their work is amazing and I probably wouldnāt be in the tumblr rpc if it wasnāt for them.Ā
@xweofmanyfaces - She is my wife, I love her to bits. I love how in depth she has gone into her characters (even down to the point that she can tell me their exact weight and all these sorts of things). She roleplays strong women, thatās her thing and these women are super strong, the sort of women who could make you feel like the most important person in the world one day and then crush your heart under their heels another day. In particular, her Lily and Narcissa are beyond precious and mean so much to Sev. They are the loves of his life in two separate universes obviously and he would do anything for them. As for mun, I canāt imagine my life without her in it and I donāt even want to attempt to. She knows exactly how much I love her and always will.Ā
@crucioslut - She is my twisted sister and I love how our relationship and our characterās relationships have developed since that first meme where I said I wasnāt comfortable with NSFW.... ha! Now look where we are, cissatrix, boom, there you have it.Ā
I write my own version of Bella as most of you will already know over with my other girls on @thestrongestmagic and, to me, crucioslut is the benchmark for writing Bella. There is so much complexity to her Bella and you truly feel the tragedy of her situation. We get to see the woman behind the madness; loyal and fiercely devoted to those that she cares about. She can be so tender and loving at times too and thatās really come to the fore with our relationship between the two sisters.Ā
@itswasteland - I havenāt spoken to the mun really and their Sirius and my Severus havenāt interacted but I currently have threads with their Sirius with my Molly, Tonks and Andromeda and their replies are an absolute joy to read and I greatly enjoy replying to them. They capture Sirius so well and I think itās safe to say that the relationship between their Sirius and my Tonks is just amazing and I love it so much. They are a multi muse so winner winner chicken dinner, what more could you ask for?Ā
@sinisteraugurey - I have probably said this before but I cannot emphasise enough how much I disliked Delphi when I read the cursed child and then I discovered Maya through Menda and I canāt think of what my rpc experience would be like without their Delphi. They are so devoted to their character and Delphi means so much to Maya and you can see and feel that love in every single word that is written. Sheās always up for a chat and Iāve really taken to her Delphi, to the point that my OC Christina over on @thedarlingmalfoy now has an AU where Delphi is her daughter, not Bellaās and it is gorgeous and wonderful. For people who donāt like the cursed child, seriously, read Mayaās version of Delphi. Personally, I think she should have written the cursed child and it would have been amazing.Ā
@corda-comminuta - I canāt do one of these without mentioning my dear Menda. She completely changed my view on so many characters that she writes and sheās an absolute sweetheart and has been particularly kind in checking up on me while Iāve been ill and just in general. Iāve spoken to both her and xweofmanyfaces from the very beginning and they have put my characters through so much development and I cannot thank them enough for that. Menda is so detailed when it comes to her roleplays and she does something that I absolutely adore her for; she tells me when Iāve made a mistake so I can go back and fix it. Sheās like a wee editor and I adore her for it. I think of her characters on this multi as the forgotten women; Cho, Pansy, Nagini, Lily and she invests so much in pulling them away from the canon and making them feel like real people and not convenient plot devices. They have needs, desires, yearning and they are formidable in their own way. Also, as a reminder to anyone who enjoys my Voldy content over on @thetruebloodofsalazar , you have this lovely lady to thank for the blog existing in the first place. I had never planned to write Voldemort but after speaking enough with Menda, the monster was born.Ā
I know thatās the five done but I want to put shout outs to others as well so Iām going to pop these in a list right here. There is a chance I will miss people and if I do, I apologise. If I write with you and or talk with you then you should know that I love your content. If you donāt follow or interact with these people, Iād highly recommend changing that; @pranking-masters/ @aparecium-muses , @pureblooded , @tmvoldemort , @rodolphus-lestrangex , @wewhoareflawed , @heartscfvalor

š¹!!! -eahateblog
@eahateblog vinny!!! hi!!Ā
alright first things first: last time i checked the rotten ot4 tag, you were the only recommended blog that came up. so how does it feel to be the only valid person to exist an icon
SECOND. you are SO kind and nice and omg ok i remember specifically when i posted that huma photoset that i was nervous bc it was the first thing of mine iāve ever posted and iām pretty you reblogged it within 5 minutes and your tags immediately made me so :D!!!!! in 5 seconds. and when you rb other descendants content and fic itās the same support and excitement from you and itās awesome! also to think that your bio had been Like That for actual months.... [knife emoji] .... but no REALLY. youāre so funny and sometimes i get the impression that youre literally just churning out hilarious fucking post after post, i am not joking SDKLFJSDFK no i am just over here laughing my ass off. but yeah you are like this mix of really really nice and really cool and funny?? oh and also you give me smart vibes lol!
also your creativity! your writing and your art and headcanons are incredible, whenever i see an original thing by you itās immediately like jdfsjlfjsdlfjk!!!! in my head because itās all so fucking good. that first marlos fluff piece you posted is so adorable and beautiful and it gave me the biggest smile when mal kissed carlos and carlos started laughing at her asldjfl. AND THEN it was the fix it (i remember i loved the way you wrote the atmosphere of it) AND THEN and then it was the poems which the language you used in those is SO SO pretty and lovely and as always, you take these characters in such fascinating directions and those character studies displayed that clearly in the best way. those character studies are so rich with characterization and motifs and theyāre just gorgeous. iām seriously seriously excited for any fics and the stories youāve got planned for the future. really cannot emphasize enough how you seem full of amazing and interesting ideas and thoughts all the time about these movies and these characters, and it is always always so wonderful and fun reading about them.

Hello my dear! Thought I'd drop by your lovely blog and ask you a few burning questions myself! š¤£š1. What inspired you to start writing fanfiction? 2. Which work of yours are you particularly proud of? 3. What is your favourite K-drama of all time? Hope you're having a lovely day!! - XOXO
Hi dear!!! Thank you for your "burning" questions š¤£ā¤. Did you know that in my many, many years of being active on Tumblr, this was one of the first Asks I've ever gotten?! š¤£ I don't know if I'm intimidating or aloof but this whole Ask thing is still unfamiliar to me as the day I started this blog since I've never had many Asks during my Tumblr career so hope I'm... using this thing correctly! šØš
Ā Super long answers incoming:
1. What inspired me to write fanfics?! Hmm... So I actually wrote kpop fanfics long time ago, in my middle/high school days with my bestie and we would be the MCs and the hot boys of Dong Bang Shin Ki were our love interests š¤£. This was before the rest of the world even knew of kpop, really. We wrote multi-chaptered, epic stories on scraps of paper, exchange diaries, and on FLOPPY DISKS. I still have the physical copies of few, rare chapters but the floppy disk ones are gone when my disks just stopped working one day ššš sad, sad loss... These were never published online and also completely written in Korean haha.
(TVXQ/DBSK will forever have a special place in my heart as my forever oppas, despite... scandals and fallouts in recent times. They were legends of their time, almost the founding fathers of modern kpop I'd say.)
There was a period when I wrote and published a jpop fic for a group called LEAD... wow, that sure takes me back. I don't even remember where I posted that (some jpop forum), what the title was, or if it is still floating around somewhere but yea, it happened.
(Akira Kagimoto, on the left, is whom I had wrote a story for?! It was super angsty too, I rememeber š¤£š¤£š¤£ My young ass was so wild. I don't even remember why I wrote it since my favorite was absolutely Keita Furuya [middle]... š¤)
Erm, other than this, I didn't consider myself a writer nor wanted to create anything until I played Samurai Love Ballad Party and that game got me so, so hooked that I started devouring fics (cough, smut) religiously and then opening up and actually befriending writer friends made me more confident in trying out writing myself. I think I just really wanted to write a threesome/foursome for Hideyoshi, Kiyomasa, and Masanori š¤£. My thirst was REAL. I tested out my abilities by writing the Inuchiyo T-rated fic and then I just went for the threesome, when I was like hmm maybe Iām not too shabs š¤£.Ā
2. Which works am I particularly proud of?! *Checks myself on AO3* Apparently I wrote 21 stories so far! Woohoo!Ā
Helping HandsĀ Ā is definitely a special one for me, which started me off on smut-writing in general! As mentioned above, I just really wanted to bang all 3 guys (at the same time?!) and I made it happen and Iām super proud of myself for what I created! š„°
Alone Again is just... words canāt describe how special that one is to me! Even now, whenever I think of Ieyasu and that MC, my heart just... :ā) It makes me smile a very, very bitter smile. Why do I like to HURT so badly?! š
3. My favorite Kdrama of all time?!?!?! OMG girl, I have seen SO many Kdramas in my lifetime haha. I would say, in terms of more recent ones, I have to give it up to:
Because This Is My First Life. This drama, I cannot say enough good things about! Itās on Netflix now so I want everyone to check it out, please!!! Itās just so, so good! Ever since I watched this drama, I went on a 2 year+ hiatus on Kdramas because... I donāt know. I felt like nothing could ever top this for me, haha. And Iām STILL in that kdrama slump! I just can never forget this masterpiece!Ā
Itās about two strangers getting married (fake) for differing reasons relating to housing, like familial pressure/societal pressure/wanting to live with a roommate whom they will never fall for (HA!).Ā
Lee Minki is just amazing as the male lead and Jung So Min is ADORABLE here. I canāt recommend it enough, seriously!Ā
Another drama I wanna throw out here is called Wedding, featuring Jang Nara and Ryu Siwon! This one is one of my ABSOLUTE favorites that I come back to time and time again! Itās crazy because I feel like itās not that popular and no one ever talks about it (in Korea or International!) but I really like it! My mom thinks it was rather boring (?!) which I donāt really get but I guess Iām just special then. Itās about a stoic but genuine/smart guy who meets a cheerful, sweet-yet-ditzy girl through marriage set-up and they get married! Itās about their relationship progressing. Things develop rather slowly but seeing them holding hands, becoming husband/wife, then angsttttt central... I just really love this drama! There is noĀ āvillain/villainessā in this drama, which I think makes people think itās on the boring side. I donāt mind it at all because we use all 20 episodes seeing their love develop!Ā
Itās a bit on the older side, 2005, but I watch clips of this drama all the time to this day XD. Itās a classic for me, at least!Ā
Anyways, wow, this turned out SUPER LONG!!! I enjoyed answering your Qs! Thank you so much lovely! Have a wonderful day! ššš
