Read on AO3

Eddie was wearing a button down shirt, top button open, under his navy blue suit coat when Buck came to pick him up. With Buck's newfound ability to do math, Eddie wanted to test him out at the secret poker game he'd heard about from Rosie on B shift. 

Granted, he hadn't told Buck where they were going. All he'd told him was to dress up.

Eddie opened the door and drank in the sight of Buck wearing a wine red velvet suit coat over a black button down shirt and black pants and felt his mouth go dry. He was tempted to take advantage of Chris being at a sleepover and peeling Buck out of that suit coat now, but he also wanted to show him off. 

Besides, it would be bad form to stand-up the fire chief. 

Apparently, Buck was having much the same reaction to seeing Eddie dressed up as Eddie was to seeing Buck because the next thing he knew, Eddie was pressed against the front door with Buck's mouth sealed to his. He allowed himself to enjoy the enthusiasm of Buck's kiss, kissing him back with equal fervor, until he felt Buck move his kisses down to his exposed collarbone. 

"Buck, babe, as much as I love where your head's at, we're gonna be late," Eddie said, panting.

"Don't care," Buck said, going back to sucking what was sure to be a magnificent bruise into his flesh. 

Normally, Eddie loved when Buck marked him with love bites, but this was not the night for that. Especially not with this shirt. 

"You will once you see who's gonna be there," Eddie managed to say. 

"Who's gonna be there?" Buck asked, suddenly worried as he pulled back. "Why won't you tell me where we're going looking like this?"

"I told you, it's a surprise," Eddie said, running his hands over the lapels of Buck's coat. 

Buck shifted the hand that had been on Eddie's shoulder closer to the skin bared beneath his disheveled shirt and absentmindedly ran over the mark that was now clearly visible. 

"Oh, shit," Buck whispered, suddenly looking guilty.

"What?" Eddie asked, his hand coming up to grasp the wrist of the hand Buck had on his shoulder.

"You, um, might want to change shirts," Buck suggested. 

"What? Why?" Eddie demanded, slipping out from under Buck to find a mirror. 

"How did you even have time to get it so dark?" Eddie asked in astonishment at the dark bruise. 

"Enthusiasm?" Buck brokenly suggested. "What can I say? I was inspired by passion."

"I don't have time to iron this," Eddie said, slipping the suit coat off and beginning to unbutton the shirt on this way to his bedroom. 

"Now we're talking," Buck said, following Eddie.

Eddie shoved his suit coat into Buck's reaching hands. "I just need to grab a new shirt."

"But I liked that one," Buck pouted. 

"And because of how you showed that, it now isn't fit for the company we're keeping tonight."

Eddie skimmed through his closet, but nothing else that would match was ready to just be worn. He suddenly remembered the turtleneck in his dresser and quickly pulled that on and tucked it into his pants.

Buck burst out laughing as Eddie slid back into his suit coat. "What is this, high school?"

Pointing at Buck, he said, "This is your fault." He glanced at himself in the bedroom mirror and nodded as he noted that the turtleneck actually looked really good with the suit coat. 

"And you're still sexy as hell," Buck said, trying to pull Eddie back in for a kiss.

"As are you, but we've gotta go," Eddie insisted. 

"Will you tell me where we're going?" Buck whined.

"It's not far; you'll see soon enough," Eddie said. He checked his pockets for his wallet, phone, and keys and then held the front door open for Buck. 

"I'm still driving though, right?" Buck asked, heading towards his car.

"Of course, I've already got the address entered for directions," Eddie said, holding up his phone. 

They got into Buck's Jeep and Buck followed the GPS to their mystery location. 

Eddie could feel the press of the seatbelt against his hickey and smiled to himself. 

Definitely worth it.

The End

Definitely not a new concept but I propose: Sciles dressing up as Captain America and Winter Soldier for Halloween.

also, a more casual option:

Fic Writer Q&A

tagged by @maidstew! Thanks for the tag, Lily!

How many WIPs do you have currently?

6 tbosas fics + my Twilight fic... so 7 wips!

Which one are you finding the hardest to finish?

Well, my Twilight fic (my first ever published fic!) has not been worked on since Felix Ravinstill hit me like a truck, and I got isekai'd into this alternate universe where I can only write things at least tangentially related to a Ravinstill. So probably that! (I will get back to you, my repressed little princess... I will! I've fully fallen into sunk cost fallacy btw... 100k+ words have been written. 27/40 chapters... I have to finish it one day, right?)

But amongst my tbosas fics, it's probably my Felix time travels AU, because it's a lot! I don't really have the bandwidth to do a multichapter fic right now, but I plug away at it... (I'm thinking of maybe splitting it into three different fics? maybe that will make it more manageable to me?)

What does it usually look like when inspiration strikes for you?

I scramble to write it down and pace dramatically around until the inspiration runs out, but usually even then, if the ideas almost finished, I'll force myself to finish it.

Do you curate playlists for each fic or is your process different?

Nope! Maybe, I'll try and curate a playlist for me to pace dramatically to while I brainstorm, but I don't normally have create playlists, pinterest boards, or any other type thing like that for my fics. It's too distracting for me, so I just have to keep writing! I'm kind of jealous of the people who do create those things though! I wish I did for my fics, alas!

Do you go balls to the wall and write or are you more organized?

A bit of both? But only a little more organized, then straight going balls to the wall? I usually have an ending or what I consider a strong concept/themeTM to carry the fic before I start writing. I wish I was more capable of making a more strict outline and sticking to it!

"For soap," Sakura hissed as she postured and dragged the zipper of her top down slowly.

She needed this. After weeks of living and sleeping outdoors, she needed a warm bath and a fluffy blanket. Unfortunately, the budget for their mission had sorely underestimated the inflation rates in the city. They couldn't even pay Sai's bail after he insulted and got into a fight with the hotel security.

"For ramen," Naruto murmured to himself as he-- no, Sakura couldn't bring herself to look. "Hey. Where do you think Kakashi-sensei went?"

Sam whirls, panicked, "Is he gone? Are we back?"

Jack grits his teeth, trying to wrest control of the worlds. The trickster keeps pushing in, enfolding dimensional walls like a kaleidoscope, dissolving whatever protection Jack throws up. "No."

The streetlamp flickers.

Sam's voice floats across the street, tinged with an irritating whine, "Then what are you waiting for? Get us out of--!"

"Hey," Dean cuts him off. "He's tryin' to concentrate."

The road is dimly lit--asphalt shiny and threateningly wet. Jack can't tell if it's slick with rain or blood. He squints against the bright flare of the closest streetlamp. It flashes at bizarre intervals, spotlighting them where they stand.

Their surrounding looks vaguely familiar, like it's a something Jack's seen on TV but can't place. He concentrates on teleporting away, reaching for Naphil powers that don't come.

"I think we're in another one of his worlds," Dean whispers, shivering. "You hear something? I do, but I don't see nothin."

Jack's clothes start to change, phasing in and out, similar to the way Gabriel had done it earlier. He feels his fed threads melting away into something tight and red.

Dean laughs. "Nice digs there, Jackson. Is it close to midnight?"

Jack looks down. Red leather outfit with jutting shoulder pads. Black leather dancing shoes.

Wait. He knows this.

Oh, fuck.

"Graveyard, three o'clock," Sam reports, and fogs rolls over them like a special effect. "Dean? That, uh, it looks like a crowd of zombies. Are you seeing this? Dean. Dean! Hey, Keith, are you gonna--"

Jack almost says, "I don't remember you being this annoying," but he reels it in at the last second. Instead he huffs, "We see it, Sam!"

The grin Dean sports is half-excited, half-terrified. "Holy crap, I think he put us in the goddamned music video for Thriller."

"No," Jack moans, so ashamed. "This is mine."

Dean spins. "Yours?"

"I--I can't control it. I don't know--"

Sam shrieks as the zombies drift closer, swaying like they're slaves to the wind. The Thriller music starts up, just a whisper in the background at first. "What do we do now?"

"Same thing we've been doing this whole time," Dean barks, and the music starts getting louder. "We play to it. Fighting it zaps away your powers...right, Kid?"

Jack swallows. Technically-- "Yeah. Fighting it is fighting me."

Sam looks more horrified at the prospect of dancing than he had at performing surgery as a doctor stand-in. The zombies surround them and leer even closer.

Dean prepares to march forward, clothes getting rattier by the second, just like the dancers in Thriller. "Okay then."

Favourite Outfits Made For Fics PT.1

Original Post:

https://www.tumblr.com/hoperays-song/726065505478344704/i-know-i-never-have-mentioned-this-except-in-like?source=share

----------------------------------------

Ok! So, I made a post awhile back talking about how I have folders of costume design for characters and if anyone wants to see anything in particular to let me know, and someone asked for any outfits that I'm particularly proud of that I've made for my fics!

I've really been looking forward to this so, I'm gonna show off a few of my favourites in terms of pure design here! These were the ones that were the most fun to design in my opinion, aka, Nooshy's interview outfit and Porsha's new casual clothes!

*Reminder that all of my stuff for fics is placed in the human au so the clothes fit into that too*

----------------------------------------

Nooshy's Interview Outfit:

So one of my favourite headcanons of Nooshy is that she loves bright colours and contrasting patterns and will dress deliberately very mismatched. This causes her clothes to be pretty memorable a lot of the time, even when she's just wearing borrowed clothes from her brother or friends. However, her interview outfit is a time where I really let this shine.

Ok so:

The main attention draw of Nooshy's outfit is a very shiny silver jacket with fringe that matches silver boots that they wear as well.

As for her shirt, it looks like just a purple button up but is actually iridescent fabric, so it looks more magenta-ish in certain lighting and with movement.

The only seemingly plain things of the outfit are black shorts and a plain black choker but the rest of her accessories are neon green and magenta, including their earrings, bracelets, and they changed her laces to be neon green too.

I really like this one because I think it shows Nooshy's very out there and bold personality as well as being one of the most unique, in terms of style, outfits I've ever made.

----------------------------------------

Porsha's New Casual Clothes:

So Porsha's original outfit was very much like her dad's in terms of color scheme and I really wanted to make an outfit that was a bit more colourful like her personality was. I kept a bit of designer clothes in there but I really wanted it to showcase the fact that I headcanon her to be living with Buster and Eddie now, so she's probably not going to be decked head to toe in it anymore.

Ok so:

I am a firm believer in giving these kids jewelry so Porsha is decked out in a gold anklet, chokers, and moon earrings (to honour her connection to Moon Theatre now).

The same is with her sunglasses, I switched the from something very crystal-like to a sun and moon design to show her affiliation with New Moon Theatre.

I wanted to add a jean jacket like she had before but made it much simpler with just a yellow stripe instead of the fancy sleeves of before. The yellow also represents cheerfulness and I wanted to keep that running as a good descriptor of Porsha's character.

The jeans are just plain white because of the tons of detail elsewhere on the outfit, like the desert on the shirt representing Redshore and the stars on her shoes alluding to her role in Out Of This World.

I like this version of Porsha's outfit as it's a lot more colourful yet still more toned down than her original. I think this would be a good way of showing her leaving a life of luxury and showing the importance the show and troupe have come to have for her.

good morning! give me your opinions on ... okay this is hard i'm trying to come up with something that a) is a decent question that's not just "do you like honeydew milk tea" or something and also b) i genuinely don't know your take on for real. and the problem is that we yell about our takes at each other like daily. um.

okay how's this. open ended. in your opinion, what's the best vibe for tim's hero identity in the future? (not like rebirth future but like. the general postcrisis sandbox where we prefer to live.) any thoughts on names, costumes, etc?

...but also now that i'm thinking about it. in your opinion whats the best cold bevvy?

Hii<3 its good u specified not rebirth actually bc for rebirth i have no idea theyve made him so boring i cant think of anything that could be fun, but in a pre flashpoint future.. Im trying to think of something that would be thematically appropriate/something i can see tim coming up with but im so stumped bc both robin and red robin have been someone elses first and tim feels so tied to being a legacy guy, which isnt bad but. U know. I will take anything but robin at this point. Ive seen cardinal and rook around and i think you mentioned red heron once? Which are all great i enjoy them and i would love to see them. Britta and i also talked a lot about rosefinch but thats for a specific au... The thing is all these feel very random? I like them but i dont think tim would google a list of birds and just pick one he wants to be now (which is what i do. When trying to come up with a new tim identity) like i would like it to be something thats meaningful, like nightwing got offered to dick with a fitting story and robin is already a symbol, but i cant think of anything for tim rn.. It doesnt even have to be a bird tbf as much as i love a good bird. So im open to ideas i would love to hear what takes people have on this

Design wise i think ive been pretty loud about how much i love red robin in my ideal (and laziest) world i would simply keep that suit but thats not how it works.. I would definitely keep the cowl thats my one strong stance of the costume. Like aside from the fact that its sick in a freak way it is actually a good mask that conceals the face which. I know comics dont tend to care about but i do and i like it so<3 I also like this second design i think something like that could be fun it would never happen in rebirth but a girl can dream basically predictably enough my ideal costume would just be a modified red robin costume

Best cold drink imo.. Pineapple juice. Mango juice. Those multivitamin juices. I love a good cocktail a lot also a friend has unfortunately got me into hell (energy drink) and the cherry flavored one especially rules

all the mckirk scenes in Operation -- Annihilate!! are so good. like the spones angst is fine, but the mckirk tension and angst are chef’s kiss <3

[cchapsticck]

He’d always been a storyteller, telling stories about himself, mostly. And hadn’t that been, really, all they were doing with file folders of monster stat blocks and hand drawn swords on lined paper and their D20s - telling stories? But like, he thinks of what Dustin Henderson’s naming, what’s going on around them, Steve and Wheeler and Robin from Band telling him he’s standing in the hivemind of an undead spellcaster without a shred of doubt or irony because this is very real, a very present antagonist out of a monster manual has a domain and is looking to start a franchise. Like Dungeons and Dragons was always real, and it was everything everyone had ever said about its power over the mind was true.

Promoting satanic worship, ritual sacrifice, sodomy, suicide, and even murder.

If he had to make a checklist, well, he's almost got all those boxes checked now. It's that funny thing about the truth, all over again. They’d all been playing a fantasy game but the fantasy wasn’t orcs and wizards and magic, the fantasy was that any of it was pretend. The fantasy was that the lines between what was real and what was fake never existed at all. And it's not just the monsters that are real. The monsters are real. But what about the things you say about yourself under the guise of a game? The guise of a fantasy? That’s real too.

And that’s what happened, wasn’t it? He became a loosely associated collection of stories other people tell about him. Somehow bigger than an identity. He’s a concept. A stereotype. A cliche. He’s a fuckin’ movie star, baby. But god, the stories people were telling about him…

today's trivial Star Trek inconsistency(?) fixation: what is the relationship between costumes + holosuite capabilities. by and large (all the time? with a single weird exception?) it seems like holosuites cannot provide costumes, right, because everyone enters in them. but. sometimes (Garak in OMB, but is that the only one?) they can??

[webbedphantom]

Referring to my previous post-

Literally the only thing I can think of to try and top it would be to do a drabble based on the AU's version of events, but that particular scene requires so much setup, multiple characters, and moving parts, that I think it'd just be better to act that out in a thread at some point.

... Or y'know, get back to writing my fic. That would work too
