Brettsey and “You say you hate it but your red face is telling me otherwise.”
This prompt looked interesting!
Okay, honestly, this one was a bit challenging 😅 but hey, I tried my best.
Matt shuffles Julia in his arms as he makes an attempt to grab her bottle from the kitchen table. She coos softly, resting her cheek against his chest. He grins down at her. He loved how she did that every so often, like she liked listening to his heartbeat. He kisses the top of her head earning another soft coo followed by some drool on his shirt.
He glances down at the baby again resisting a groan. He had just changed an hour ago since Julia decided to fling some mashed sweet potato at him during breakfast.
Julia looks up at him with her big, blue eyes and he melts. He could never be mad at her - she was his sweet Julia, light of his life and one of the best things to have ever happened to him.
As he grabs hold of the bottle, his eyes catch something else on the table. It's a letter with the CFD logo on the upper right side. His curiosity gets the better of him. He rearranges Julia again in his arms before taking a seat. He reads the letter slowly while feeding the baby her milk.
For a second, he feels guilty but it wasn't snooping if it was lying there out in the open, right?
His eyebrows shoot up as he continues to read. It's a commendation letter for Sylvie for kickstarting Paramedicine. It mentioned she was going to be honored at the CFD gala in two weeks. He smiles. It was a long overdue recognition in his opinion. Sylvie's program has done wonders for the city of Chicago by making sure CFD paramedics were directed to emergencies while still providing care to other residents with non-life threatening emergencies. It amazed him on a near daily basis, even more so when he decided to ride along with her for a shift. He really felt how many people Sylvie helped out and saved.
"Your mom's a brilliant woman, Jules," he whispers at the baby.
She blinks up at him, one hand still on her half empty bottle.
He grins at her, looking up as the door clicks open.
"Hey," Sylvie greets, smiling warmly at Matt and Julia when she spots them in the kitchen.
She had a bag of groceries in her arms, beginning to explain how she got some banana and strawberries they could make Julia try since she recently started on solids.
He raises an eyebrow at her. Clearly, she wasn't going to tell him about the commendation. Come to think of it, she didn't even mention it when he asked last night if she wanted him to take anything to the dry cleaners in time for the event.
"What?" she questions at the strange look on his face.
"You're getting a commendation, Sylvie," he tells her, pointing to the letter, "we should go out and celebrate."
She laughs, shrugging it off, "oh that - it's not a big deal. You know how I hate being the center of attention."
He truly did.
They were alike in that sense. Both of them did their jobs because they loved it not because they were chasing after recognition and awards. They kept their heads down and did the work but Sylvie deserved to be celebrated. An idea forms in his head. He'll probably have a lot of help planning and executing it but thankfully, he could still count on his 51 family. Ben and Griffin were definitely going to help too.
He gets up just as Julia finishes her bottle. He re-places it on the table, cradling Julia close before walking over to Sylvie.
"Okay - nothing big then," he proposes, "maybe dinner one of these days?"
She smiles at him, leaning close to kiss Julia on the cheek.
"Sure," she agrees, "dinner sounds wonderful."
---
A lot of coordination goes into planning Sylvie's big celebration. Herrmann and Mouch agree to have it at Molly's. All of Sylvie's close friends were coming and more importantly, her parents. He called them the day after he found the letter, explaining how Sylvie was getting this big award. They laughed when he told him how she didn't want a huge celebration, saying it sounded exactly like their daughter. They would be flying in from Indiana, eager to spend more time with the whole family, especially with little Julia.
He had it all accounted for, even making a spreadsheet like the one Sylvie had for their wedding. He kind of understood why she liked them so much but hoped he rarely needed to bust them out ever. They were more of her thing anyway.
What he didn't expect would be a challenge was getting Sylvie to Molly's. They were there most of their nights off but tonight, Sylvie seemed to want to stay at home, cuddling on the couch with Julia while watching an old rom com she loved.
He lets out of breath, thinking of an excuse, any excuse really for them to go. He already arranged for Griffin to take Sylvie's car fitted with the car seat to bring Julia to Molly's after they left. He grumbles when he gets a text from Stella asking where they were, clenching and unclenching his fist.
"What's going on, Matt?" Sylvie asks, having tuned into his anxious energy.
He sighs. He really wants to keep it a secret but all of it was going down the drain if he didn't get her to the bar fast.
Screw it. Some things were meant to be spoiled. It’s for the best.
"Everyone's waiting for us at Molly's."
She raises an eyebrow, "what do you mean?"
"I planned something for you tonight to celebrate your award," he admits.
"Matt -" she begins, eyes going wide, face reddening.
It didn't look like she was angry, maybe more embarrassed that he made a really big deal out of her award. He sees her expression change to one of surprise then wonder.
"You say you hate it but your red face is telling me otherwise," he starts out hopefully. "I just really wanted this chance to celebrate you and all the good things you've done for this city. I hope you're not mad."
She smiles at him before biting down on her lower lip, "I'm not mad."
"No?"
She shakes her head, "it's incredibly sweet of you to do that - unnecessary but incredibly sweet."
He walks over to her, sitting close to her on the couch, "it is always necessary to celebrate you. In fact, we should make that a rule - celebrations are mandatory in this family."
He tickles Julia, "am I right, munchkin?"
Julia giggles happily. He beams.
"She agrees with me," he says proudly.
She lets out a tinkling laugh, shaking her head again.
"I love you," she tells him.
He smiles widely. There was a time when he thought he'd never hear her say that to him ever again. He savors it every time she tells him this, always saying it back.
"I love you too."
He leans in to place a soft kiss on her lips before taking Julia from her.
"Come on, Jules - we need to get ready for Mommy's big party," he says as the baby coos.
Sylvie smiles at him, pinching the baby's cheek lightly, earning a squeal from Julia.
He glances back towards her, "can I ask that you act surprised later? They all put in a lot of effort."
"I can try," she tells him, "but I'm not a very good actress."
They both burst out laughing. It was true but Matt didn't think anyone would notice anyway. He didn't tell her that her parents were coming too so there was still some element of surprise left in the night, one he hopes would be a special and memorable one for Sylvie.

I’m a bit late to the party, but thank you SO much for answering me super fast! I so appreciate your ultra-in-depth response about Mirion and Arvellas’s fates. Although I still weep on weekends, it’s helped me so much with my own story! And all the supplemental headcanon info on Mirkwood as a society has been invaluable to me as well! (Also thank you so much for your update on my Lindir fic! Please don’t worry about the length of time! When I submitted the request I shot for maybe having it as a Christmas present or New Year’s treat! But any time I receive it l’ll savor it all the same!)
I wanted to ask though, are there any writing exercises or prompts that you do to train your writing muscles? I find that I have a tougher time placing dialogue intentionally where it needs to be, and I struggle with showing, not telling. I plan my stories and chapters, which helps me a TON, but I still have issues. I’m coming back to writing after abandoning it in about 2018 because of uni and life. But now I wanna come back, which is why I’m writing my story, but I feel so rusty. Any tips/suggestions on how/what to write to improve on these skills?
Thank you so much for all your help. I really appreciate you. Your account’s richer than the mines of Moria for great writing content!
- Mithril
Hello Mirthril my friend!
Boy, am I glad I was able to answer your Ask quickly last time, because this one is laaaaate. I hope you'll forgive me that, but I have been pondering over your question since I received it.
My impostor syndrome tends to rear its ugly head whenever someone asks me for writing advice. I am against false modesty and all for giving oneself due credit, so I will say that I am a pretty damn good writer. (And I certainly hope so; I suck at math and most left-brain skills, so this is all I've got, haha!) However, I wouldn't call myself top-tier in the fanfic writer's world. Even though I have been doing this for many years, I still struggle with any aspects of my writing--in the same ways you described!
But you asked so kindly and I want to be able to offer you something, so here are the few tips I could think of that personally work for me, in addressing the challenges you described:
SotWK's Writing Strategies and Tips
Writing exercises or prompts
I actually suffer from having too many ideas, so I don't seek or invite new prompts often. I lean on the endless stream of wackadoo ideas in my brain, or the lovely suggestions and requests that come into my (always open) Ask Box.
I exercise things that I'm weakest at, and right now that's my speed and focus. I currently write at an abysmal 6-7 wpm (about 200 words every 30 minutes). Embarrassingly slow! I very recently discovered sprinting on Discord servers, and so far it's been effective in training me to focus on just getting words down as quickly as I can. I highly recommend it! I think with time it will gradually bump up my wpm.
If you really would like prompts to get you going, there are plenty of prompt games floating around the Tolkien fandom. You can also source them from writing groups, such as @fellowshipofthefics, the one I currently belong to. Their January Trope Roulette, for example, is so much fun! Amazing support group for Tolkien writers, and more importantly--very chill, no pressure.
Dialogue
This is tricky for everyone, and definitely exposes a writer's style and ability to speak in the voice of different characters (I think that's why writers stress about it). You gotta do it with accuracy and range, so it IS a challenge!
If you want to get as close to the characters' voices as Tolkien wrote them, then the obvious strategy seems to be to immerse yourself in the source material. Read the books. Watch the movies (which are pretty faithful, tone/dialogue wise).
When writing Tolkien fanfic, I am constantly browsing through my books (having ebook copies helps), playing the trilogies in the background, or listening to the audiobooks (I have the Andy Serkis versions). It's a little bit like method acting. If you drown yourself in the character's voices enough, you'll actually start talking like them in your head. You'll pick up on the language, the word choices, the pace of the dialogue within the story.
This is the reason I personally don't hop around fandoms (Tolkien only), and I stay away from modern AUs or crack fics. I prefer to preserve that Middle-earth tone and voice and keep it consistent in my writings.
You can also draw inspiration from other period/medieval/fantasy works! My frequent go-to's are ASOIAF/Game of Thrones/House of the Dragon, Pride and Prejudice, and even Downtown Abbey works!
This last one might be extra weird, but I am a writer who leans heavily on fancasts/actors for inspiration. I like seeing a clear face and hearing a distinct voice for the character I am writing. It truly helps me write dialogue. For this reason, I fancast every major character that appears in my fics, and I usually pick big-name actors. Why? Because they have more movies/tv shows I can watch and listen to!
Fun fact: While writing my Éomer fic (which was VERY dialogue heavy), I listened to the first 7 minutes of Dredd SO MANY TIMES over and over just to imbibe Karl Urban's voice--I'm surprised the Netflix app didn't crash.
Showing, not telling
Here's one thing to try: Use "said" or "said + adverb" more often than you think you should, instead of trying to force a substitute. Or don't use a speech verb at all. This will force you to get a bit more descriptive about the characters' specific condition or actions. (Example from my fic: “Anywhere. Far enough to take you away from all this--” Éomer swung out his free arm in a gesture as wild as the fervor in his eyes. “Away from everything that is confusing you.”)
Visualizing a clear picture in my head helps me with the showing, and writing descriptions. Besides daydreaming and staring off into space, watch cinematic masterpieces, and train yourself to use words to describe what you are seeing.
But personally, I think purple prose and lack of brevity is the bigger issue in many fanfics (including my own). We need to remember there's nothing wrong with being straightforward in our storytelling and descriptions, because it speeds up the story pace or at least gives it more variety.
Shaking off Rust
Nothing else to do but just do it, my friend! :)
Whenever I feel rusty or blah about my current projects, I just shuffle over to a different WIP, or if it's really bad--start a new one!
As long as you're getting words down and you're happy and satisfied, you're doing it right.
Lean on writing friends for help and inspiration. We are a community here, regardless of the whisperings that "fandom is dying". It will stay alive and thriving if we keep it so!
Anyway, that's my non-professional, semi-bogus advice regarding things that work for me! Hopefully you can find something in there that works for you too.
Thank you as always for your kind words, and I wish you the best of luck--and LOTS OF FUN--in your writing!

pinky and the brain - s1e4: pinky and the fog
hello everyone! the hiatus is still going because i still feel like shit, mr stark, but this episode is weirdly short so i’m doing it anyway while i have some energy. i have a blood test tomorrow! i should be sleeping. i am not. (:
episode summary: brain has listened to too much of The Mist, which in this universe is a radio drama about a superhero, and not an overly depressing book where everyone dies. in turn, brain dubs himself “the fog,” and aims to hypnotise people by having his own radio show where he sticks his fingers in his mouth and does a funny voice.
i love him.
the rundown: it is New York City in 1932.
this time, there is very little introduction to the wonderful world of New York City 1932. there’s no intro or anything. it just cuts straight to mice.
they are listening to the radio. “WHO KNOWS WHAT MADNESS LURKS IN THE HEARTS OF MAN. THE MIST KNOWS.” at least now we know what madness lurks in the mind of peter hastings.
brain does not care. he’s meditating.
pinky, meanwhile, is unimpressed by the quality of radio. produced by rusty mills? he didn’t do a very good job, evidently.
“narf. i still can’t get a picture on this thing, brain.”
lol.
brain sits there and massages his head and pulls a funny face. he tells pinky to be quiet, because he has “almost finished honing” his “razor sharp mental powers”, which i assume means that he has buried himself in a seventy-eighth layer of emotional repression. homeboy is in narnia at this point.
pinky is excited about honing!!
and then he falls off the wheel.
brain does not care for the fate of his cagemate, and goes on to elaborate that
NOW HE HAS THE POWER
by power, he presumably means “funny little hat and cape”. he is now, as he emphatically tells pinky, THE FOG.
“nice fedora, brain”, says pinky, predicting every single person on reddit who thinks, perhaps, that they are brain in a world of pinkys. or possibly a rick sanchez in a world of whoever the other guy is that he doesn’t like. i’m not sure these kinds of people watch TV, for fear of Social Justice Messaging.
anyway brain is not an incel and we should be nice to him.
“but i see you more as a beret type.” see? berets are better! they have no terrible association, unless you’re particularly adverse to the french.
anyway brain offers to demonstrate his Mental Powers.
“ooohhh, i love it when you demonstrate, brain.” yes, pinky, i’m sure you do. he manages to not be gay for long enough to turn off the radio, which is more than most people can say for themselves.
“by altering the frequencies of my voice, i am able to befog men’s minds!”
i guess it doesn’t work on women, apparently. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
“with some electronic gizmo thingy?”
“no! with these.”
okay.
IN A MOMENT YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE ME. FOR I AM THE FOG.
as pinky attempts to turn the radio back on, he accidentally trips over their wheel.
you can’t see it very well, but rest assured it is definitely spinning very fast.
air mouse.
nyoom.
“egad brain! it worked! i can’t see you!”
brain is taking a bath.
still, as he ponders how to use his power on “millions of people at once”, pinky excitedly tells him that his trick worked! he’s as good as the guy on the radio!! (:
brain pulls his patented Idea Face. we know he’s just had an idea because he goes all like O:O and it’s cute.
brain will go on the radio! “taking the place of mist, so i can broadcast my genuine mental powers to millions of listeners, befogging their minds until they,”
MAKE ME THEIR LEADER.
so off they go to the radio station.
the radio tower they need to access is, of course, at the tippy-top of this building. brain calls it “yon tower”, for some reason (pretentious git) and casually mentions that soon it will broadcast his befogging message to every household in the world!
“and then, my dream will be realised.”
“you mean--”
“you’ll finally get to dance with the ballets russes?”
“no. the other dream.”
they make it into the radio station eventually, where they meet this bellboy.
we’re bellboys ouo
brain BEFOGS HIS MIND
and asks him very nicely to close the door.
GET IT?? HE’S A DOOR MOUSE. LOL
“open the door.” ):
the bellboy obliges, and, yet again, brain survives something that would kill literally anyone else.
it’s preparation for elmyra. probably.
inside the studio, the orchestra play some music befitting for a woman to freak out about getting kidnapped or whatever.
there she is. YOU’LL NEVER GET AWAY WITH THIS, YOU CRAZED MADMAN.
THE MIST WILL FIND ME.
IF HE DOES. HE’LL FIND YOU IN THESE CHAINS. UAAAAHHAHAHAHAHA.
<jingle jangle.>
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH.
as the Crazed Madman elaborates on his list of tortures (IN THIS DARK CELLAH, DOWN A LONG LOOOONG FLIGHT OF STAIRS) (which sounds like the filming location for funnybones, but go fig. hope lady enjoys the faint sound of meglovania playing in the distance) the mice watch, unimpressed.
brain does whatever that is with his arms, i guess. he’s squaring up.
as he peeps (don’t do it, pluto) pinky confides with a naaaaaaaaarf that he didn’t expect radio to be like this! more like-- okay, he describes it as “a big red squishy ball with little nobules on it” but i think i get what he means. kind of like windows media player visualisers.
i hope none of y’all are too young to get that.
“who are those ridiculous people who just stand there and read?”
“those are actors, pinky.”
“and who are those people that nobody’s paying attention to?”
“those are the writers.”
oof.
that burn concluded, the mice make their way into the vents.
brain flies away with his cape, somehow.
pinky........... also has a go.
rip.
conclusion:
this is a short episode.
as they make their joint landing on the desk of the sound effects guy,
brain BEFOGS HIS MIIIIIIND
FOR HE IS THE FOG
pinky excitedly interrupts to tell brain that the actual mist has arrived.
hmmmmm.
“the jig is up, crazed madman. for i am the mist.”
“MIIIIIIST. SAAAAAAAVE MEEEEEEE.”
as the mice prepare to make their debut, Crazed Madman informs the mist that he is too late! he is locking his girlfriend in his SECRET DUNGEON
BONK.
YOU FIEND, yells mist.
but the crazed madman isn’t done yet! he’s NAILING THE DOOR SHUT.
narrow escape for pinky. he has gone his whole life with a perfect tail and he’s not about to get it all bendy now, god damn it. he has to be on queer eye in like ten minutes.
brain is less fortunate.
alright well. never mind. oh dear.
AND, because Crazed Madman isn’t done yet. TO MAKE SURE THE POOR LASS CANNOT POSSIBLY ESCAPE.
I’M BUILDING A BRICK WALL IN FRONT OF IT.
ouch.
THEN I’LL THROW THESE DISHES UNTIL I SMASH YOUR HEAD IN, MIST
“haha!” says mist. “you can’t get me!”
“NOT EVEN WITH THIS,”
“ANVIL???????????”
BONK ² .
oof.
“i dare you to do that again!”
“oh no.”
BONK ³ .
“quick, pinky. run for cover!”
it’s a very cute screenshot! so they take cover inside... whatever instrument this is.
i don’t know!! i’m sorry!!!!
good thing the mist TOOK THE PRECAUTION
OF CALLING THE CAVALRY
nyoom.
I HEAR THEM COMING NOW
this is just.... a lot, at this point.
after getting bonked around so much, pinky is just about ready to jump into the bin.
he holds his nose! it’s very cute. brain follows him, pretty much without thinking about it, which is also very cute.
“a bomb!” yells distressed lady, as a bomb evidently becomes plot relevant.
“a bomb?” says the mist.
“a bomb?” says brain.
“sure, here’s one.” says pinky.
hm.
“i rerouted your bomb!” yells mist. “so all you blew up was your own lab!”
“my lab!” yells Crazed Madman.
“my hero!” yells Distressed Lady.
“my head.” says The Fog, shortly before collapsing with exhaustion.
SO ENDS ANOTHER EPISODE OF THE MIST.
meanwhile, back at the lab, a very bandaged brain mourns the loss of his Befogging Powers. his pawsies got all banged up!
never mind. at least they have Experimental Television Project to cheer them up!
brain isn’t into it.
brain: 6 pinky: 7 outside influence: 12
“i think so, brain, but--”
“the rockettes? i mean-- it’s mostly girls, isn’t it?”
#patb#pinky and the brain#this episode was So Cute#i LOVE the ones where brain has a little outfit!!!!#also this one had so many good faces dfghbjgfdfghfdfgh

☼ ☼ ☼ ⎿ MUSE 32 : SOPHIE TURNER, CIS-FEMALE, SHE/HER ⏋ oh look, NATALIE FISHER is back, the TWENTY ONE year old HEAD OF DANCE AND GYMNASTICS at camp otenaw. looks like it’s their FOURTH year as a staff member. rumour has it, they tend to be RUTHLESS and DRAMATIC, but hopefully we’ll get to see their ALLURING and LEADLY side too. I heard they ARE SLEEPING WITH THE DIRECTOR OF THE CAMP ; let’s hope this will be an epic summer ! ⎿ HOPE , 20, EST, SHE/HER ⏋ ☼ ☼ ☼
hey everyone ! im Hope , and im so glad to have finally found time today to get this intro out of my drafts!! i’m 20, EST, cis-female (she/her), and im so ready to party . this is my first rp in almost a year so i am a bit rusty, haha. I do have a bit of an odd schedule, I’m a store manager so I vary each week for working all nights to all mornings but I will try my best to get replies in between ! (I do a lot mobile so if you want to add me on discord shoot me an IM cause it’s super easy to reach me there ! )
Now for my gal:
☼ Natalie grew up as a foster child, home to home, different families, but one thing somehow remained constant. Otenaw.
☼ When she was sixteen she was finally adopted by a long term relative of her mothers. Thalia Conley, married to a very talented and well known writer Kegan Conley. It was in that home Natalie found her niche: Journalism.
��� Natalie had remained a reoccurring camper from summer to summer. Her friends being the most stable part of her life even through the years, something she always cherished.
☼ Natalie is a bit of an enigma, always hiding a bit of herself, never giving too much away, those who are even close to Nat feel as though they can’t always figure out what’s up with her.
☼ She was a very vocal child. Through being a preteen, teenager , young adult , to now she has been one to speak her mind. Her tongue is something she’s never been able to hold back.
☼ Nat has always been a bit of a wild child, an energetic , lively, unapologetic girl. She was always the first at camp to just into activities, and she strived to be the best at whatever came her way. (Check then camp photo albums she in a ton I bet.)
☼ Since she was eighteen she had picked up at the camp during her time off from traveling and journaling. It was her stable period. Her time to enjoy the one place she truly loved.
☼ Otenaw was her home. Being head of dance and gymnastics is something Nat is very proud of. Growing up she was in the program every year rocking it, so to her it was destiny to become the head counselor in charge
Wanted Plots:
Honestly with Nat I feel like you either definitely love or hate her, so I’d love to get some like on going enemies from since they were kids ? Maybe rivals because of a sport at camp? Lost a bet and now can’t stand one another? Multiple options give em to me !!!
Camp fling , someone who from year to year has some how managed to keep her attention on going but nothing she’s ready to commit to yet.
Friends ? Duh! Campmates ? Old cabin mates ?
The possibilities are endless! Message me and we can think of a ton more!

heavensong replied to your post “Over all I think that episode was way better then the Unicorn in...”
I think she wants to be on the council more actually! I’m not sure where they’ll take this and I can’t speak for what she prefers, but it seems like her doubts lie in wanting her husband to be happy with her decisions. It sucks but she’s probably trying to make it all work for herself AND monarch. (Also I’m not sure rusty welcomed those drugs lol it was def a joke and def a “hey take these youre gonna die stupid” kind of thing.) Also I think Rusty’s want for some love (and a lay) take precedence over the possibility of getting murdered haha. He’s had a CLEAR interest in dangerous women (Molotov and Sheila off the top of my head but Myra too) and I don’t think it’s necessarily a death wish. That’s not to say he’s not about self-sabotage and being reckless as hell but… I also don’t 100% believe they’re going for “he’s definitely trying to get murdered”. At least I fackin HOPE NOT AHHHH but yeah! Tbh I don't think the black widow is going for murder for his money? SHE MIGHT BE I mean she has a reputation & we barely know her character. But idk this show is all about breaking appearances and expectations so who knows what they'll do. (This is from someone who had a heartattack after that discoball fell so I might just be trying to stay sane and not worry LOL)
Rusty has dangerous kinks man, he will be found dead in New York before the end of the season.
I know I am taking this too seriously lol. I am an angst writer first and a person second sometimes lol. Also I was kinda just rambling as I watched the episode, really early in the morning lol.
I’m gonna be real friend, I want Shelia to get with Novia. I want her to join team monarch, Monarch can have his side boyfriend 21 and she gets a side girlfriend. that was the start of cute fanfic right there where they awkwardly glance at each other. cute stuff.
#heavensong#I promise I wasn't ignoring you friend!#I'm trying to lay out a fanfic right now too so im jumping back from tumblr to my fic back to tumblr
