I’m a skeleton gal who likes to draw and write! Currently I’m working on Better the Wool, a Cult of the Lamb AU about the Lamb resurrecting the sheep and mending her relationship with her former patron deity.
Find Me Here: KoFi | RedBubble | Ao3 | YouTube | Twitch | BlueSky | Sideblog
Featured Tags: #Stuff by Sofie (Tag for my creations) | #Sofie Says Stuff (Tag for my rambles) | #Sofie Answers Asks (Tag for responses to my inbox) | #Obbyposting (Tag for raving about how awesome my boyfriend is)
You can read more about me, my projects, and what I’m up to under the cut!
About Me:
I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints!
I’m interested in writing, making webcomics, game dev, 2D animation, character design, programming, singing, small business management, self-improvement, and all around way too many crafting mediums to count.
I like green, bugs, hot chocolate, kawaii future bass music, video essays, Ooblets, and Animal Crossing.
I have a pet blue death feigning beetle named Gamer Girl, sometimes fondly referred to as GG!
I make a lot of things. This blog is a way for me to record the various projects I create on my journey to be unashamedly sincere!
Some of My Projects:
Better the Wool: An in-progress Cult of the Lamb AU focusing on the Lamb and her relationship with Narinder as she works to resurrect the Sheep killed by the Old Faith. Has a dedicated tag on my blog. A written fanfic is in the works, and I regularly post art about it between writing!
The Present is a Gift: A finished, but still semi-active, post-credits AU and fanfic for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky which focuses on the hero taking in an amnesiac Darkrai. Has a dedicated tag on my blog. Also has a dedicated sideblog for chapters and can be found on Ao3, Tumblr, PMD Fanfiction, and Wattpad through there!
Mortality Exchange: A collection of “What-if” scenarios based on a piece of worldbuilding in my Pokemon Mystery Dungeon fanworks— if a Legendary pokemon dies, a nearby mortal pokemon will inherit their powers and immortality. Has a dedicated tag on my blog. There are no plans to make a long-form storytelling project of this.
Dugtrio Day: A time loop AU for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky that stars a prickly Eevee hero, a sociable Treecko partner, and a nihlistic Celebi. Has a dedicated tag on my blog. There are currently no plans to make a long-form storytelling project of this.
Common Questions:
My inbox is always open if you want to ask or send something in! I like to queue up responses to things sent into my inbox, though, so sometimes they take a while to get posted. You can always send a DM or additional ask about the state of the thing you sent in if you’re curious!
I don’t mind being tagged in things. It’s a great way to make sure I see something :>
Fanart and other works based on my AUs, original work, and persona are all things I love to see! If you ever make something along those lines, send me a pic or the link to where it’s posted! I’d love to be able to shout it out if possible!
If you want to voice act / do a dub of my work, the same rules apply from the above bullet point! I’d love to see it! Send me the link! However, I’d appreciate it if you didn’t use AI to dub over my work. I’ve had my work stolen for use in AI dubs in the past, and I’d really like to avoid the stress of that happening again.
If you’re curious about something, send in a question, whether anonymously or not! You don’t need to be nervous or shy about it. I’m a pretty chill gal— I promise I won’t bite!

daydreaming
itzy 6th member au
when victoria became a member of “jyp’s new gg”
masterlist 🌶️ requests are open feedback is always important to me!
Silently watching the third group finished their performance, Victoria tried to look chill as she realised her turn to perform was getting closer.
Is not like that was the first time she was performing in front of the mentors, but it was the first time after her pause due to the flue that made her stay a whole month away from the evaluations. And, to say the least, she wanted it to be perfect.
To make thing even better, the first thing the trainees told her the moment she stepped inside the company was 'Jade is our mentor for the month', and everyone knows what that meant: the debut of the new group was right around the corner.
"Okay, the next trainee..." JYP's voice brought Victoria back to reality. "Xu Yu-jin, come to the centre, please."
She took a deep breath and got up, going to the place where a staff was holding her a mic. She took the mic and stand on the small 'X' on the floor, feeling everyone looking at her.
"Hello, I'm Xu Yujin." the girl said, bowing at the mentors.
"So, Yujin," Jade's voice made her lost her breath for a moment. "you were under a medical certificate and for that, you won't be participating in the group evaluations, right? Are you okay now?"
"Yes sunbaenim." Victoria nodded."I got a weird infection that made me lost my voice and I had to step back from the training. I chose not to get in any group because, for my lack of training, I could prejudice my colleagues' work. And I'm better, thanks for asking."
Jade smirked and then nodded, writing something on her clipboard, making Victoria feeling a cold sweat on her nape.
"Tell us, what are you going to be showing us today?" the vocal coach asked her.
"I'll be singing an acapella version of Dangerous Woman, by Ariana Grande, and dancing In The Name of Love, by Martin Garrix." she answered.
"Nice, let's start with the cover." JYP said, crossing his arms after writing something down.
Victoria closed her eyes and tried to concentrate on her breathing and her voice, ignoring all the attention on her. Mentally preparing herself for some seconds, she finally started singing. As she didn't have a mic stand, she was free to move around and so she did it, still keeping her eyes closed.
When she was too nervous, like in that moment, she'd close her eyes and picture herself back to her room in China, singing to no one but her mirror, when she didn't have to care if the techniques she was using were the right ones. Even tho her throat was still a bit sore, she didn't let affect her performance.
Victoria finished the song and opened her eyes, her gaze meeting with Jade's immediately.
Quickly handing the mic and going back to the centre of the room, she gave the guy responsible for the backtrack a thumbs up, and the intro of In The Name Of Love echoed through the sound system. Doing just as she rehearsed these last weeks, she gave all of her.
Once the song stopped, Victoria tried not to show how tired she was and held her breath for the final pose. The other trainees started applauding her and she bowed at the mentors, watching them taking their notes and waiting to see their comments.
"I have just one thing to ask you." Jade said, looking at Victoria and then turning at JYP. "Why isn't she on one of the debut groups yet?"
It took some time for Victoria to understand what she meant, but when she did, her face got instantly red and she heard some 'whoa's and 'wow's from the other girls.
"Seriously," Jade turned at Victoria again. "where have you been this whole time? We're needing someone like you!"
"Oh!" Victoria cooed, giving a deep bow to Jade. "Thank you, sunbaenim."
"Of course, there are some things we still have to work on, like your facial expressions, breathing control..." Jade said, looking at the mentors. "But there's no doubt that she should at least, have a chance to debut."
"We'll have a quick meeting and decide the rankings but I think Yujin can start packing her things to move for the group A's dorm." JYP announced and then beamed at her. "Congrats!"
The mentors and the trainees started applauding Victoria, who was still shocked. Somehow she bowed at them and went next to the girls from group A, who excitedly hugged her.
"You made it, Yujin-ah!" Lia said, patting her back. "We're debuting together!"
"Welcome to the group!" Yuna, at least she thought that was her name, said also hugging her.
"Oh my..." Victoria giggled, cleaning the sweat off her hands on her jeans. "I still can't believe it."
"Wait until our next class with Jade. You really won't believe it." Ryujin teased her.
Victoria wasn't even a bit excited about that, but she didn't have to worry about it now. Now, all she had to do was celebrate and tell her family about the news.
She was finally going to debut.

Enticing Girl (JJK x Reader) 🎀(☁️)💜🔞
Pairing: Jeon Jungkook x Reader
Genre: Good Girl AU!, Fluff, Smut, slight comedy, only a teeny tiny little bit of angst
Warnings: Fluff, it’s so soft pls, GG and JK being best puppy-parents, Dom! Jungkook, Sub!Reader, Dom/Sub themes, mild DDLG themes, usage of toys (the vibrator pt.2 lol), oral (fem. receiving), Squirting, Subspace, Soft aftercare king ‘Koo, GG scratches his back and he thinks it’s funny, GG is clumsy and has to go to the ER, nothing too bad, but she’s kinda on a lot of pain meds, Jungkook being whipped, GG talking without a filter and he loves it
Summary: Jungkook never wanted to see you in any kind of hospital ever again. This time however, it ends way differently than last time, and he couldn’t help but feel almost overwhelmed with emotions.
Good Girl || Sweet Girl || Smart Girl || Brave Girl || Pretty Girl || Charming Girl || Enticing Girl || Bad Girl || ???
Taglist: @sweetenedcooky @ggukkieland @btsismybias22 @darkgvk @daddypkj @flowerprincess24 @crazylittlemay @zeharilisharaban @teresaisla @tangledsparkles @dammit-jjk
"What the fuck!" Jungkook laughed, as he pulled you inside the small diner, his cotton zip hoodie already soaked with the rain from outside. You hit his chest playfully at his cursing, making a few lone costumers and a waitress snicker at your antics, and your own cheeks redden. Your boyfriend shook his head like a wet dog shaking his coat, making you whine as the drops fell onto you, as he laughed, kissing your cheek. "Sorry, sorry. Lets sit down." He said, walking to a small booth in the corner, where he simply threw his soaked clothing onto the seats, making you click your tongue at him. "Ah come on now, sit down and be a good girl now while I get the menus." He said, making you huff as you sat down, cheeks still ablaze because of his words.
Alex had made a little fun about it the last time you spoke with her. The fact that you seemed trained like a dog to his very command as soon as he would utter these things to you in a way that always included you being 'his good girl'. You had told her time and time again that no, you were not whipped for him, and yes, you could be independent and go against his words. You had yet to prove that, however. It wasn't like you wanted to go against him, however- your nature didn't allow you to. As someone who liked to be taken care of in the most nurturing kinds of ways, you wanted to see if Jungkook would take on that role of a partner who would simply comply with these needs. So basically, what you were doing, was pushing and pushing, until you'd demand something he couldn't give. Of course you could just plain straight tell him what you wanted, but you craved him to do these things naturally, not because he would feel like he needed to do them in order to make you happy.
Jungkook had noticed your behaviour as well. Instead of using that to his advantage, he'd gone around the world wide web and done research, simply because he felt like he'd read about this entire situation before. He knew about things like subspace, a mindset you slipped into easily during sex whenever he would push your buttons just right- these days even without any sexual nature in his gestures. The funny thing was, that Taehyung had actually told him to search up some things, 'maybe it could be helpful' he'd said. And it had been, he decided after he'd found a lot of information about what this could mean for you as a person. Were you someone who regressed, but simply didn't know? It could be. Or maybe you weren't. He'd ask you about that later on.
When he'd come back to your table, you slowly put your phone away as he sat down, looking at the menu. "Anything catching your eye princess?" He asked as he looked over the dishes as well, trying to decide what he wanted for himself. You hated making decisions, always waiting for Jungkook to do tell you whatever he would get as an example to go by. He noticed that, as you began to shuffle around in your seat, slightly sucking your upper lip in between your lips to chew on the skin in frustration. He clicked his tongue, hand reaching out to pull your lip out of its danger of getting seriously hurt as he looked at you. "Don't do that. Let me get the sunny side up eggs, and you'll take the pancakes. If you wanna switch we can, sound's good?" He said, and you nodded, glad he took the burden of the decision from you.
It was still early, your first morning of yours and Jungkooks shared week of freedom from your work. You'd taken the days off at the same time to spend some well deserved time together without the need to get up early in the mornings, or stay up late to wait for the other to finish their shift. Today you started with getting breakfast together, the weather however had switched seemingly out of nowhere, making you both regret walking to the small diner instead of taking the car.
It didn't matter to you, however- the fact that Jungkook had desperately tried but failed to shield your form from the sudden downpour from above with his zip hoodie made you feel as if you were stuck in a romantic drama full of cliches and happy endings. It felt magical, in a way, as cheesy as it sounded.
Once the food arrived, Jungkook thanked the waitress as she set the plates down, his hands already reaching for the cutlery as you gently pulled yours towards you. The small restaurant slowly filled up as the time went by, squeaking shoes and the laughter of a foreign family walking in breaking the silence around everyone. Jungkook watched you as you started to dig into your pancakes, smiling a bit as he slowly began to eat as well. "Is there something you wanna do today?" He asked you, as you looked at him, shaking your head. Today you really wanted to just embrace the simple fact you could both be lazy. He nodded, instantly moving his finger over your lower lip as some crumbs failed to make it into your mouth in time, swiping across before pushing a bit, his own lips turning upwards a bit as he noticed how you complied without thinking much, letting his finger inside your mouth to welcome the stray crumbs of food that were supposed to end up there in the first place. You really were sweet.
"The lets go home after the rain clears up and take a nap, sounds good?" He said, and you nodded again, already hyped at the vision of him and you curled up on the couch, windows opened to let the cool air in as you both slept for as long as you wanted. For others it may seemed to be a pretty dull plan for the day, but for you both it was rare to be able to be lazy. Jungkook had just recently found his dream job at a tuning workshop as an airbrush artist. He'd been a bit hesitant, yet after a bit of reassurance from your side he'd finally agreed to send in some of his own sketches and practices he'd collected over time. They had almost immediately agreed to take him under their wing despite his lack of knowledge concerning actual work experience. That had been the big reason why he'd always stayed late, being given extra lessons in how to actually work with professional equipment. He loved his new job, you'd noticed that instantly, yet he had also felt bad that you always stayed up to wait for him to come home despite having to get up early in the mornings for your own job, constantly finding you asleep on the couch rather than in his bed where you should rest. The week of freetime came as a beacon of hope that things would get a bit easier since it showed that you both had settled into your own jobs well enough to receive short-notice freedom just by asking kindly.
It was also good for the both of you since you would be finally picking up your dog the next day, your vacation probably filled with chaos and happiness- and you couldn't wait.
"Come on, lets go take a shower while we can throw the clothes in the wash." Jungkook said as he stepped into the apartment you both shared, making you smile happily as you skipped into the bathroom, already pulling your sweater over your head. Jungkook came inside soon after, picking up the clothes you had simply thrown onto the tiles as you stepped out of your pants. "Since when do we make such a mess princess?" He said as he accusingly stood in front of the sweater in front of his sock clad feet, arms crossed in front of him. You looked at him for a moment before you pouted, picking it up with mild attitude and throwing it into the open washing machine, making him sigh as he caged you in with his arms on either side of you, chest against your backside. "And since when, pray tell, do we have such an attitude?" He grumbled, his voice low as he spoke close to your ear. You squirmed a bit, trying to duck your way out of your current situation, but he'd easily caught onto your plan by grabbing your wrists and holding them onto the edge of the washing machine, keeping you in place. "Hm?" He pressed, as you simply shrugged your shoulders. "Huh. I see." He said, as he suddenly detached himself from you, leaving the bathroom.
"Jungkook?" You asked meekly, peaking around the corner of your living room where he'd sat down, on his phone. He hummed an answer without looking up, aknowledging your questioning call of his name, but not giving you full attention. Did you get too far? "Aren't you.. you know, gonna shower too?" You asked, and he nodded, still not looking at you.
"I'll take one after you're done." He simply said, and the corners of your lips turned downwards at that, almost asking why, before your mind connected the dots.
He was punishing you.
You stepped back inside the bathroom, ridding yourself of your undergarments before stepping inside the shower, cleaning yourself. Until today, Jungkook had never really punished any behavior other than when you didn't speak clearly. He'd always simply taken it as you being a bit impish that day, as if you were just in a funny mood. This was new to you, and you didn't know if you were happy with it or not, simply because you could not clearly figure out if it was for the right reason in your eyes.
You stepped outside the shower, eyes widening at the fluffy sweater and sweatpants, as well as underwear he'd set out for you on the sink. He maybe gave you the silent treatment, but this simple gesture made your heart melt. He really was too sweet for you. Grabbing everything and slowly dressing yourself, you dried your hair with a towel until it stopped dripping, as it slipped from your hand, falling to the ground and taking some stray items next to the sink with it. You didn't look as you tried to catch it from actually meeting the floor, hand failing to reach the fabric, but instead squeezing something else, that made you take in a sharp breath, instantly dropping whatever you had in your hand just now.
Small red droplets fell to the floor as you squeezed your hand, whimpering a bit, careful not to be too loud to catch Jungkooks attention. You panicked a bit as you saw the amount of blood collecting in your palm, on the white tiles the razor you had accidentally grabbed in your fast movement. You grabbed a freshly cleaned kitchen towel from the bag of recently cleaned things such as oven mitts and the dogbed Jungkook had bought second hand. You wrapped it around tightly, but it still seeped through, making you sigh out. Nop, you had to get him.
“Jungkookie..?” You timidly asked, leaning against the doorframe as he turned around from his spot in front of his TV, pulling down his headset.
“Yeah Princess?” He asked, raising his eyebrow in a silent question at your form.
“So uh..” you started, trying to ignore the angry throbbing of your hand. “Let’s say uh, purely hypothetically, you cut yourself accidentally in your hand, when should you like.. you know, see a doc?” You asked, biting your lip.
Jungkooks eyebrows furrowed, immediately getting up as soon as he discarded his headset of the floor, walking over to you and reaching out for your hand that you had behind your back. “I ain’t playing games young lady, Hand. Now.” He demanded, and you hesitantly gave in, putting your hand wrapped in a kitchen towel into his waiting ones, as he unraveled the fabric, making you hiss and whine. He grabbed your wrist to take away the possibility of pulling away from him as he sharply took in air between his teeth, carefully inspecting the cut in your palm. “Wrap it up Baby and get my car keys.” He said, already switching off the TV as he ushered you into the small hallway, not taking chances with it.
Oh boy, you really were making a mess today, weren't you?
"...'m hungry koo.." You drawled, making him chuckle a bit as he fastened your seatbelt for you. "Did you hear me?" You asked, a bit like you talked whenever you were drunk. He have had the wonderful privilege of knowing that after picking you up from a birthday party once.
"I've heard you loud and clear baby." He said, closing the car door and walking around the front to open his own and climbing into the drivers seat, a click signifying that he'd put on his own safety as well before he started the engine. "But the nurse said you can't eat anything for the next few hours, at least until the medication has worn off." He said, and you whined, sinking down in your seat, glaring at your bright pink bandage wrapped around your hand as if to set it on fire. To Jungkooks eyes it just looked absolutely adorable. "I promise you I'll get you whatever you want as dinner tonight. Sounds good?" He asked, looking at you for a moment at a red light. You mumbled something but nodded. "What was that?" He said, and you huffed.
"I said 'yeah okay I guess." You repeated your words, and he chuckled. "You're not takin' me seriously Koo!" You whined, and he smiled as he tapped your shoulder, silently ordering you to sit properly.
"I admit that Princess." He said, taking a moment to take in both sides of the road before continuing to drive. "But I can't really do that since you're a bit out of it baby." You gasped as if he'd just insulted you, rolling your eyes. "I saw that." He said sternly, and you squirmed in your place. "you've been huffy like this the entire day today. Do I need to do something about that?" He said, implying something you weren't too sure of.
"m not a baby.." You mumbled as you looked out of the window, making Jungkook smile a bit.
"Well you're behaving like one though. A pretty bratty one at that." He said, and you looked at him.
"Is that bad?" You asked, and he raised his eyebrows as he stopped at a red light again, urging you to continue talking. "Is it bad that I wanna have you taking care o'me like that.?" You carefully worded, even though your words were still a bit hazy. He shook his head.
"I never said I didn't like it, didn't I?" He said, and you simply nodded, but face visibly still uncertain. "It sure isn't like anything I've experienced before, and I'm gonna be honest, I highly doubt I'm fit to be someone to take care of someone like you, but I'm also a selfish asshole who can't give up trying. So yeah, that's that I guess." He spoke, and you looked at him with eyes full of wonder, making him chuckle a bit uneasy. "What now?"
"Your eyes look like Bambis!" You suddenly exclaimed, and he suddenly burst out laughing, that signature laugh were he kind of sounded like a maniac, voice high pitched and mouth wide open. "They do!"
He had to blink a bit to get his eyes to clear up. "I'm sure they do, I'm sure."
"But you're not cute like Bambi." You said, looking out the window.
"I'm not? Why not baby?" He asked, and you seemed to think for a moment, until you answered.
"Dunno." You began, before speaking your next words without hesitation. "maybe because I have to think about the times we had sex, and I can't think of you as cute anymore afterwards."
This time it was him that suddenly went a bit red on the tips of his ears. You never spoke openly about your intimate life like that, so hearing you say it out loud was foreign to him. "Really now?" He said, simply to keep the conversation flowing. He wanted to make the most out of your dazed state, speaking without any filter.
"Hmhm." You hummed. "But now that I think about it, you are kind of cute." You said, and he simply huffed out a breath. "Cause you always take care of me afterwards, no matter how hard you get. You know, remember that time you used that cute vibrator-" Jungkook coughed, replying with a yes. Of course he remembered that. "Yeah, you were sooo sweet afterwards~" You said as you yawned, just before he finally parked the car in front of your apartment complex. "Hm, I liked that." You said, and he looked at you.
"You did? But I was being pretty mean." He said, and you shook your head.
"No. 'Koo's never mean." You mumbled, and he smiled.
His feet walked over the floor, getting closer and closer until the smell of his bodywash hit your nose as he'd crouched right in front of your seemingly sleeping form on his bed, oblivious to the fact that you were slowly regaining consciousness after your short nap on the mattress to clear your system of the medication used to numb your hand as they cleaned and wrapped the skin up. He tapped your nose a few times until you scrunched it up cutely, making him chuckle a bit. You opened your eyes with a pout, until your gaze lowered, noticing his.. very obvious lack of clothing.
"YAH Jungkook, why are you naked?!" You yelled, immediately sitting up and holding a pillow in front of your face, making him burst out laughing.
He grabbed onto the pillow to lower it, but you held it firmly, making him laugh even more. "Baby it's not like you haven't seen my dick before-" He said between his chuckling, but you shook your head behind your makeshift barrier.
"Well yeah but-" You said, "But this is so unexpected I wasn't prepared- just put on pants Jungkook!" You begged as he took your only safety away, leaving you to hold your hands over your eyes, face red as he seemingly couldn't stop laughing.
Initially he'd just tried to wake you to ask where you'd put his most comfortable sweatpants after not finding them in his bedroom earlier, and forgetting to ask you about them when you had finished your shower earlier. But teasing you would always stay hilarious to him, the way you would still blush and get shy whenever he'd do things like that never failing to make him smile. "I would but you hid them so good I can't find them." He said. "Have you seen my black sweatpants? The ones with the white writing on the side?" He asked.
"Jungkook, they're still in the wash, and also-" You took your hands away from your eyes to be met with him still in front of you, skin slightly shiny from his shower. "Jesus-! Also if you're searching for your Sweats why the hell aren't you at least wearing underwear?!" you whined, and he laughed.
"Well I wasn't really planning on wearing any underneath to be honest." He casually explained, sitting down next to you on his bed as he layed down at your legs on his side, his head near your thigh as his hand traced yours still shielding your eyes. He didn't grab nor pulled, he simply tapped it with his finger. "Come on princess, am I that bad to look at?" He said with a whine, and you shook your head. "Then why won't you look at me?" He asked, making you sigh, falling down into the pillows behind you, making him get up a bit to crawl next to you, laying on his stomach. "Okay, my dick is snuggling the mattress now, you can't see it. Can you look at me now?" He asked with a hint of teasing in his voice, as you slowly opened your eyes, testing as if to see if he was lying. He wasn't.
"Jungkookie~!" You whined, and he simply copied you like a parrot, making you pout at him.
"Oh come on, you love this dick!" He exclaimed, and you laughed a bit as you squealed at his hands tickling your sides. "Say it!" He said between laughter, and you shook your head, even as tears gathered in your eyes. "Come on, say it!" He said, not letting you breath.
"Okay okay, I love your dick, I love your dick jungkook please stop!" You said, laughter turning into squeaky noises- something you hated, and he loved.
"Good." He simply said, entire nature of his antics shifting as his hands found their way inside your pants, pulling them down in practiced motion, taking your underwear right along the ride down to your calfs where he simply let them fall down next to his bed, uncaring. He positioned himself between your open legs, next target of his wandering palms underneath your sweater, having already noticed that you had skipped your bra he'd put out for you. It made it easier to access your breasts for him, so he didn't mind at all.
You sighed at it, already at his mercy with just a simple action. Your eyes never leaving his as he watched you squirming underneath him in anticipation of what he had in store for you, already getting riled up at his intense gaze. "I believe earlier you said something about the cute vibrator we used before, hm?" He said, and you turned red at that, having hoped he'd forgotten about it. He simply dug inside his infamous bedside drawer, pulling the toy out, and carefully running it over your center, collecting your already very present wetness as a form of lubrication to push the toy inside you, slowly, as to not make it too uncomfortable. "I also remember your attitude today." He mused as he watched the toy slowly disappear inside you, small rabbit gimmick on the top side of it slowly taking its place snug against your pearl, making you move your hips a bit. "Do you think you've been a good girl today?" He asked, testing how to get you into your familiar headspace. It seemed to work immediately.
"N-no.." You hummed, eyes already moving around a bit anxiously at the way he spoke. He usually didn't address anything that happened during the day whenever you both had sex, always keeping it plain and simple while still changing up the pace and overall energy of it almost every time. Sometimes he was incredibly sweet, while others your muscles ached afterwards in the most delicious of ways. This time however, the theme felt a little different.
"Then you'll know why I'm gonna do this, and you'll take it like the good girl we both know you are, right?" He said, before turning on the toy, low buzzing making you yelp a bit, hands grabbing the sheets. "Keep it there while I watch you." He said, and your eyes widened as you tried to look at him. His eyes held an almost predatory energy in them. "And don't you fucking dare close your legs." He hummed, low voice showing how serious he was about it.
You nodded, hips moving a bit as you tried to hold them as still as possible- the relentless pace of the toy however, made it increasingly difficult to do so as you tried to breath steadily, not noticing how Jungkook himself had taken on another position on the bed, tattooed hand pumping his already hardening length in his hand, lazily, not really having his own release in mind at all. It simply increased the pleasure he already felt watching you- not only watching you, but knowing that you actually tried to follow his orders. It made him feel powerful in a different way he'd craved before he'd met you- and he could say for sure that it already had him addicted. Your soft moans suddenly shifted as your hips bucked into nothing, your thighs trembling as you came in front of him.
He made no move.
You whined at the overstimulation, craving to close your legs, feet already kicking away softly, yet you forced them to stay open as long as you could, breath escaping you in small bursts of air, and Jungkook fed on that view, burning it into his mind before he turned off the toy once he saw your eyes squeeze shut in discomfort. He hushed you softly as he pulled it out of you, letting it bounce slightly off of your clothes on the floor to be cleaned later. His hands found their way underneath your thighs, pushing them upwards as he layed a palm over your center, making you jump a bit at the contact, but you soon relaxed again as he kissed you deeply, tongue instantly forcing its way between your lips.
You didn't put up much of a fight when it came to him anyways.
Slowly, pleasure returned, building up again after your last orgasm as he let your hips roll into his steady hand, letting you decide the pace for a moment, before he took a condom and pulled it over his length, entering you slowly, too slow for your liking. He chuckled at your eagerness before he pushed your thighs apart, flat on the bed as he began a steady but relentless pace right from the start. He could feel your soft muscles tremble underneath his fingers as he held them in place, your own hands reaching for him as he leaned closer, giving you the opportunity to at least try and wrap your hands around his middle- failing however.
It came suddenly.
Normally you'd feel it build up, but it was his hand reaching down as you were delirious with pleasure, flicking your bud just right as you clenched around him, making him gasp as your fingers dug into his back, leaving angry red marks just underneath his shoulder blades as you felt yourself release- quite literally.
Jungkook continued throughout your sudden orgasm, eyes widening as he saw you squirting underneath him, coating his lower abdomen and thighs in clear wetness. He pulled out, leaning down as he placed his mouth onto your intimate parts, tongue working on your nub again softly as he groaned at the taste of you and the way you whined and moaned, openly without any hesitation. It was so enticing to see you like that, how you suddenly sobbed drily in pleasure as you felt him work you through all the overstimulation towards another one, parting with a kiss to push himself inside again, this time sitting, grabbing just underneath your knees to pull you close to him, eyes never leaving the visual pleasure that was his own cock re- and disappearing inside you over and over again, until he felt himself release, pulling out and working his hand over your nub in a fast pace, making you scream for a second before you came with a silent cry, back arching off the mattress underneath, making him sigh at the view.
Your leg quivered, feeling dangerously close to cramping up as Jungkook softly worked his fingers over your muscles, easing them up so that wouldn't happen to you, even in his post orgasmic bliss purely focused on you and your well-being.
He sloppily tied up the condom, throwing it into the bin next to his bed and simply letting himself fall onto the sheets next to you, uncaring of the drenched fabric underneath you both. He simply pulled you close, wrapping his arms around you as you tried to catch your breath, softly muttering praises into your ear as you fell asleep.
Hearing the door open, you instantly got up from the couch, spotting Jungkook and the light grey dog carrier walking into your living room.
You didn't come along this time because you felt like you would just make the dog anxious with your restless emotions, and Jungkook had decided to pick up the dog without you after that. He slowly put the plastic cage down, opening the door as you both sat down on the floor, waiting for the puppy to emerge.
Which happened quite quickly.
You both had visited her as much as possible to get her comfortable with you, and it showed; as soon as the fluffy white dog spotted you, she happily skipped over to you, licking your hand and chin as much as she could while you laughed. "I'm happy to see you too!" You exclaimed as the puppy barked away, excited at seeing both of her regular visitors now together.
Jungkook simply smiled at the picture in front of him, slowly taking out his phone to snap a memory for himself of that moment.
He really was whipped for you.
After getting acquainted with all of the furniture and rooms of your apartment, you both took Miri out for a walk, Jungkook having remembered that he'd promised you anything you wanted for dinner, which, not to his surprise, involved getting chicken nuggets and milkshakes. It was okay for him however, since you had deserved it after the amazing time you'd given him.
While watching you walk the dog so happily, he reminded himself that this was exactly what he wanted in life. A simple experience like this felt magical with you, the way you saw everything in a special light slowly coloring the picture in front of his own eyes more vibrantly as well. It was truly something only you could do to him.
He didn't need much money, a large house, or anything else. As long as he had this, he would stay happy.
"You know, I never knew you could squirt."
"Jungkook!"
"What?!"
"Not in front of the dog!"
"Oh, really now?!"

Soulmate Prompts:
Since this is a fic fest about soulmates, we are in need of prompt suggestions! Please send in some prompts that have to do with soulmates! You do NOT have to be writing for this fest to send in prompts!
More info can be found at @soulmatesabroad!
A: The One au. The One is a tv series that's sort of dystopian in that it explores a reality in which you could suddenly apply to this program that will match you to your soulmate and it follows how specific people deal with that.
B: Where you wake up with a tattoo after meeting your soulmate. Larry are vacationing at the same hotel, they meet and then every day for 4 days after they both gain a new tattoo. When they meet again, they realize their tattoos match perfectly. Rope & anchor, compass & ship, heart & arrow, rose & dagger.
C: Ziall soulmates au where their first words to each other are tattooed somewhere on their body. Both of them have the phrase “fuck you” on their arms. Of course the first time they meet they both say...
D: in uni, prof is giving a lecture, his student is his soulmate, figuring it out over the semester
E: reverse Wellington: Larry meet, drunk Louis shouts "soulmate" at Harry, then they get to know each other and fall in love
F: Larry please- soulmates who meet in dreams and appear the way they see themselves so that irl one doesn’t recognize the other because he sees himself as plain/boring
G: Larry please - One of them either doesn’t want to meet his soulmate and has been doing everything to avoid meeting them. He gets stuck in a time loop (like Groundhog Day) until he meets and acknowledges his soulmate.
H: One of them is a surfer, the other is a photographer and they meet somewhere warm. They're 26 and kinda gave up on finding their soulmate but then it happens.
i: any pairing: universe in which soulmates recognise each other by having the same song stuck in their head. cue person a hearing person b humming the song under their breath in location x
J: Larry please - fic where each year you get opportunities to meet your soulmate and live life with them but as soon as the clock hits 00:00 on Dec 31st your memory resets in regards to who your soulmate is. There’s no way to go around this...or is there?
K: A is a hopeless romantic who has always dreamed of meeting their soulmate. Unfortunately their remote location means they see the same few people every day, none of whom is their match. When Character B arrives and A falls in love with them, the question arises: are they soulmates? Or does A just want them to be?
L: Food is love, and supposedly your soulmate's cooking will taste better than anything you've ever eaten before. Too bad Character A is hopeless in the kitchen. Character B is the chef who promises they can teach anyone how to cook-- is that the only reason A finds their food so delicious? Or is there something more at play?
M: Characters A and B are working together on a yacht. They share a room, and as crew they also happen to share most of their working hours and duties as well. Is that the reason they're so drawn to one another? Regardless of their connection, they're both determined to keep it professional.
N: It's not only humans who have soulmates, apparently. At least if the pet psychic Character A has consulted about their dog's depression is to be believed. The psychic claims the pup met his soulmate at doggie daycare. Now A is trying to see if she's right by seeking out every possible dog from the playgroup. Will helping a dog find it's soulmate lead Character A to the same thing?
O: Hybrids aren't accepted many places, but in a few countries they have full rights and equality, even if prejudice still exists. Character A was raised in an anti-hybrid country and is now studying/working in a hybrid friendly place. Character B is the hybrid neighbor who they feel drawn to in ways they've heard are typical of soulmates. The possibility is as frightening as it is enticing.
P: Nontraditonal ABO: it's generally accepted doctrine that alphas and omegas are made to go together. Character A has always been attracted to people of their own secondary gender, and has therefore run away from the concept of finding a soulmate. When they meet character B, who shares their secondary gender, and find that the two of them share a soulmark-- the sign of a true mate --their world is turned upside down.
Q: (larry) They have been penpals for years now, sharing their little creative thoughts with each other. Will they ever meet? A new job, a different city, some crossed paths and fate might help.
R: Louis is 30 and the CEO of his family business in Toronto and he has hired a new assistant, Harry, 27. A lot of sexual tension, business trips, coincidences and ‘if he my soulmate or I just have a stalker and also a big crush?’
S: Strangers to friends with benefits to lovers larry; Louis and Harry has finished college and they both are doing a tour across Europe visiting different countries. They start from different cities in and meet in the second/third country they’re visiting. They get along quickly and have a one night stand because they think they won’t meet again. But they meet again in the next city or in the trip to the next city. Is their connection due to their sexual attraction or because they’re soulmates?
T: Louis and Harry are both Niall’s friend but they don’t know each other, however they meet in Niall’s wedding (with his soulmate) in Ireland (or another country if the author prefer another place for the wedding)
U: Larry: Soulmates have a special connection, they have visions of their more important events of their life - both sad and happy but they can’t see their faces, bodies or their friends/families faces. Louis and Harry know everything important that happen to them but they haven’t met yet, they live in different countries and they know that but they don’t know the country they live in. How will they meet? What will happen?
V: Larry: Exes to lovers - People have their soulmates mark in their 18 birthday. Harry and Louis were together during high school and break up before Louis 18 birthday because person A was afraid of not being their soulmates. Louis goes to travel aboard so they don’t know about their mark. They meet again some years later when they’re in their 20...
W: Larry enemies to lovers: Both of them work for the same company and has the same job position but they hate each other because the first time they met it wasn’t “meet cute”. All their coworkers think they are similar and would make an amazing couple so they try to get them together. Most people don’t believe in soulmates anymore, they think it was a legend or maybe it’s not a legend and they’re soulmates?
X: Untraditional soulmates !! For example, a pairing (or poly) comprised of people who aren’t soulmates but are in love anyway. Maybe their “true” soulmates died or just didn’t work out for some reason. Maybe their “true” soulmates are platonic and separate from the romantic relationship. But ultimately the theme being something like “i am choosing to love this person” rather than the world telling them who to love :)
Y: Character A is a writer who pours their heart and soul into everything they write, though their focus on the soulmate trope is underappreciated. They go away on a writer's retreat to give it one last try and meet Character B, a person who seems to have stepped right out of one of their novels. Is this their soulmate or a figment of their imagination, or have they truly had one of their characters come to life?
Z: In a world where you see in color after hearing the sound of your soulmate's voice, Character A doesn't remember seeing in black and white. When they realize they're different, nobody can explain the reason. It isn't until they meet Character B, a stranger with the same affliction, that they begin to put things together. Or: A and B hear one another's cries as babies, changing their vision from black and white to color before they could possibly have realized it.
AA: Characters A & B somehow keep running into each other inexplicably all over the world. Maybe they happen to study abroad together then have a work conference in the same city then vacation in the same city, etc. Eventually they realize they've been seeing each other all over and maybe the universe is trying to tell them something.
BB: Louis gets a call from an unknown number from across the world. When he answers it, he's asked if he is a Mr. Harry Styles' previous employer and to give a recommendation on his performance. Amused, he pretends he is Harry's old boss and gives a glowing recommendation without knowing who he is. The job that this Harry is going for must be quite intense, because a few days later Louis is asked to fly out to interview in person to attest to Harry's character, where he ends up meeting Harry and falling for him.
CC: OT4/5 platonic soulmates with all the main characters being aro, ace, demisexual, etc. A soulmark appears when you meet a soulmate-- whether they're a platonic, romantic, or sexual soulmate(or sooner combo of the 3) is something each person has to discover for themselves. OT4/5 are grateful to find soulmates who are excited to experience beautiful and deep platonic relationships.
DD: Soulmarks are a trait that most humans have lost. Character A is a vampire who was born in a time when they were far more common. Imagine their surprise when they meet Character B, a human, whose soulmark complements their own.
EE: Larry: An AU where magic exists, Louis has always thought he’s a dark wizard and Harry doesn’t know if he’s a wizard or a normal human. Spoiler: he’s a wizard! They meet when they are 18/20 in a trip and they find more than themselves.
FF: Larry: Louis and Harry are friends of Zayn and Liam but they haven’t met yet. Ziam is having a wedding and their bachelor parties in Hawaii, they meet them.
GG: Louis and Harry haven’t met yet but they meet in a reality show that consists of traveling around the world. The rules of the reality show: Choose a person in the first program to travel with them (Louis and Harry travel together) and spend as little money as possible.
HH: Louis and Harry have been working in the same building for years but they haven’t met officially although they’ve seen each other around. They officially meet when their boss decided to do a work trip to Sydney
ii: Louis and Harry go to Orlando to visit the amusement park. They meet when they’re waiting in the queue for one of the rides and they spend a lot of time together because their other friends are tired of visiting different amusement park and they want to chill.
JJ: Famous/Non-famous larry: “Every time that you and your soulmate are in the same city, you’ll have a mark in your wrist. If one of you leave, the mark disappears” Person A is an actor who loves love but is tiring of two things: fake pr-relationships that make the general public believes that he’s not interest in having a soulmate and traveling. Person B wants to find his soulmate but he knows it’s not in his city so he’s traveling around. They have been in the same place several times but they haven’t met. How many countries will they visit until they meet?
KK: larry please: It is well known that the first time soulmates touch they leave a vivid mark on their partner's skin. Well one morning Louis wakes up with a bright stripe across his cheekbone and no idea what happened.
LL: hl au: harry is a well-known anthropologist from england but he’s requested to join the discovery of an ancient palace in mexico city. louis is a historian that has lived in said city for several years now, so he’s almost a local. the discovery they both take part of includes a blue greeny jewel that holds a legend about soulmates.
MM: Zouiam ot3 matching soulmate tattoos
NN: A and B are childhood friends and have known they're soulmates since they got their marks in their early teen years but they never develop romantic feelings for each other but they Do want to spend the rest of their life together. Bit of conflict / comfort.
OO: Lirry Shrek au. Harry Fiona has always expected their perfect soulmate to break their curse. Liam Shrek is tired of playing the role of the ogre and being rejected by prejuices. They meet.
PP: Zayn is travelling with his van, he picks up some hitchhikers along the way. They stargaze and bond with each other. They find out they are soulmates when some dangerous situation arises.
QQ: ot5 1d era au. A slowly finds out they are soulmates with each of the others while in the bus or travelling/staying abroad together.
RR: Ziam: In a world where magic exists but soulmates are rare, Liam and Ziam met in the same Magical College and have an instant connection. In history of magic, they learn about soulmates and Character A know that they (Ziam) are soulmates but he’s afraid and tries to avoid Character B all the time.
SS: Larry - Louis needs a break of his job and travels to a place where Harry lives and Harry needs a break of his past relationships. They meet in a pub and after too many drinks, they decide to do a road trip around the country. The author decides how people know who is their soulmates.
TT: Zouis: they discover they’re soulmates in Zayn’s wedding. Louis is the boyfriend of one of the best mates
UU: Larry - A reality show is trying to prove that soulmates still exist and Louis and Harry are participants in it
VV: HL Monday AU with Harry as Mickey and Louis as Chloe (but with a happy and not toxic ending please!)
WW: The voice you hear your thoughts in is your soulmate’s but you don’t know who they are until you hear them speak for the first time
XX: You’ve been sketching your soulmate’s face since you were old enough to pick up a pencil, the drawings become more realistic through the years as the day you meet comes near
YY: Red strings of fate au. Person A cuts their string. Person B is devastated to find their string has been cut but moves on with their life and finds love with, you guessed it, Person A who doesn’t believe in soulmates. When Person B finds out that Person A cut their string they’re so angry because they know how devastated they were to find their cut string. And Person A is confused at first because they thought Person B didn’t believe in soulmates either and didn’t realize that it was because they had no way of finding their soulmate. And then it hits Person A that there might be a slight chance that Person B IS their soulmate. So they nervously show up with their string and ask if Person A wants to see if the ends fuse together or not. Up to writer if the ends fuse or not.
ZZ: Person A reads tarot cards and while reading Person B’s cards, Person A can see that the cards are telling them that the two of them are soul mates
AAA: Soulmates can hear what their soulmate is singing. Harry grows up with a soulmate who exclusively sings a weird blend of Oasis, Green Day, and the odd Light Killers song. Louis grows up with a soulmate who mostly sings Fleetwood Mac and Peter Gabriel. They both hate their soulmates taste in music.
BBB: Every person is born with a golden string on their finger attached to their soulmate. Everyone but them can see it but it is considered highly rude to tell people without prompting (like taking away a coming of age experience). Or Harry and Louis fight a lot and everyone looks at them knowingly until one of them cracks and asks someone about it.
CCC: Character A runs a clothing boutique of some kind and one day uses a steamer too close to the smoke detector and sets off the fire alarm. Character B is one of the firemen to respond. Character A is very embarrassed that they did this in front of a super hot fireman, but the firemen are super nice about it. It just so happens they have to come back the following week for an annual inspection of the building and Character A jokes around/flirts with B. Soulmate aspect up to writer. (One idea could be matching soul marks?)
DDD: When soulmates touch for the first time, an electric shock goes through each person. They can’t touch each other without a shock...until they fall in love with each other. Too bad Character A & B hate each other and are not thrilled that when they touch by accident they finally feel the electricity they’ve always been waiting for.
EEE: The color of your eyes act like a mood ring and changes according to your soulmates' mood. The first time you make eye contact with your soulmate, they turn the same color.
FFF: Reluctant soulmates where one or both of them keep their soulmarks covered at all times because they want to fall in love without the person soulmates
GGG: AU where your soulmate smells like HOME only they’re both too dirty and disgusting to smell like anything other than yuck
HHH: Older Larry AU where they’re both in their 40s or older and still haven’t met The One. Embracing this, they each go on a trip alone, but wind up meeting
iii: Fleetwood Mac/ Rumours AU - Larry as Stevie and Lindsey, Ziam as Christine and John. A breakup and a divorce while recording and touring an iconic album. Endgame Larry. Lovers to exes to soulmates.

Hi,
I love your writing. You’re very talented. I hope you don’t mind me asking. Are you going to continue your GG stories now that the series is cancelled?What’s the next fic you’re going to post to AO3?
ohhh thank you so much, that is so nice to hear! i really love writing and im still so amazed and grateful that there are people who enjoy the result of that. that's so neat
i definitely plan on finishing my WIPs. the plan now is to see by the time i wrap up all the fics im currently working on if i still have interest in writing new ones. that said i dont know if all my WIPs will get finished and shared? i mean i hope i do! but i am kind of a slow writer and ive got about eight different fics im working on right now so we'll see how it goes!
i will definitely finish the fics that are already up on ao3. im gonna finish writing as trouble ought to do even if it's the last thing i do. ive got a good chunk of the last chapter written already and i love that story too much to not finish it. & i do plan on finishing hands, knees, please, tangerine, but that one needs a looot more work
other than that im working on:
a very very very ill-advised follow-up to the instigator that i have no idea if i'll ever finish and am very scared won’t do justice to the instigator itself
a married!brio pwp that's really just the nastiest dirtiest smut ive ever written i guess and i have no idea if ill ever finish
a random lifeguard!rio/aerobics instructor!beth AU that was supposed to be enemies-to-lovers but it's completely getting away from me??
and um. ok so... ever since finishing warm water ive been wanting to write another multi-chapter fic of similar size & ive kind of been planning it but i basically havent written a single word but i want it but it's gotta be big but i write so slowly ill never ever finish it and it'll take me like a year to write just like warm water oh my god what have i done

For the fanfic writer ask game, 15, 20, and 29
For the fanfic writer asks: (link)
Huh, well... I have to say you challenged me, these are hard questions.
(Just as usual from me, prepare for a really long reply.)
15. What is the fanfic you've written that you're most proud of?
Definitely, this one is the evilest question, like ever. That was a low bow, shame on you, but seriously, I think I'd say it's WTPH (and even more once I’ll finish it - I'll certainly celebrate that day somehow I'm sure). After all, that one is my little child. Its development I follow eagerly as a parent looks over their firstborn. I watch it proudly as it stretches out into several one-shots and side stories with time. (Note: overall, I call everything belonging under the same concept as 'Heart AU', so all in all, I'm proud of my 'Heart AU'. 😊)
(For clarity, Heart AU includes (chronologically): CMOT, Seasonal Portal Cold (Happens Like Never) (whether it's the same for Dan in the past or just for Danny, I leave it open, because I can't decide it either sometimes), Huntress (Dan's Valerie, alternative timeline), WTPH (+BOTP), Portal (yes, this one belongs here too, oops, spoilers…), My daughter, my perfect base(same Dani as in GG), Core (Danny's Valerie), GG ones, LoD (soon…) (+Sailor), Dollhouse)
It's hard to choose only one though because every fanfic - if I exclude everything that is not DP - has its own beauty. GG is my second-born, which I treat as a bit more 'experienced'. Coming 'LoD' is my third child, which I plan, to prepare for to have but not my 'firstborn'. It's like having two boys, longing to have a girl once which you know you'd love from your heart the most wishing always to have a girl, but still you love your other kids too. Wrong metaphor, I know, but for a second, if I try to think about it, this is how I see them. For real, I can't decide which one is my favourite. But, let's play for a moment why I love (proud of) each of my fanfics:
Phantom: heart-wrenching concept, I'd never ever deny its existence, I love it, it's an AU, an existing version of things in my mind - also, the first thing that came to my mind while I was watching that episode with Amorpho. The moment I finished that episode I sat down, writing this. Also, this one is my first fanfic in DP. (Based on a comment I’ve got for it, I planned to write a just-as-short-one continuation for it, called 'Mad', about Maddie going to Vlad to get revenge on Phantom for Danny… - I have no idea why I never wrote it, but I guess time will tell if I come back to this concept once)
Seasonal Portal Cold (Happens Like Never): my attempt to write what happened before S1E1 - also, I needed something 'comforting' for myself after 'Phantom'. (Also, the title is hilarious, equaling Danny’s symptoms with a probable ‘cold’ got from the portal. This is where my hilarity has begun to give great titles to stories.)
WTPH: young parent's firstborn, first steps into something, surprised by its length (with originally planned 7 chapters - 7! how?! look at this monstrosity now…), and into what it developed with time. (To stay at the child-metaphor, this one right now a bit got neglected due to the second and third child… also, it's a 'teen' now, hardest to handle compared to spending time with its little, ‘harmless' sibling, GG…)
BOTP (aka short scenes from WTPH): exploring everything a bit more, giving more depth to things - also, as time went ahead, I realized I should have added more scenes to WTPH, so then, I did it in another way :) (messier this way though, I see it too…)
GG series (previously titled as BOT - Bonds Over Time): my second born, entirely different issues to cover up, an absolutely interesting mix of two different things (normal life and ghost issues), also a very much self-indulgent fanfic, if you love it too, I love you, if you don't love it, then I love it nevertheless. (If I need a bit of comfort, then I always imagine a scene with Dani and Dan, and then, if I have time, I write it down to. It doesn’t count if they have a ‘hard time’, their pair always calm me. It’s like a safe zone.)
CMOT (Certain Moment of Time): damn, I just love this, very short, but within those short chapters it tells a whole tale about Dan's Vlad. I'm still awed how it turned out. I could’ve never ever guessed I'd manage to seize everything just in some tiny chapters. Really short concepts but if you think about it… it's just much. (Also, I’m proud because it was for Angst Week and I did every day in time!)
My daughter, my perfect base: I'm sad it slipped back in the writing process because I have things to tell in this (things connected to GG), but I still love it from my heart - also it's my very first attempt to make something to someone - or at least in a way 😊. (Yeah, uh, sorry, Lena, I'm not sure if I said that or not - more like, if I had the courage to confess it or not back then - but this is not a 'good dad' Vlad one. It's how I imagine Dani's past with Vlad about the time we haven't seen in the series, so it won't be a 'happy one'. Even though, Dani’s past is known, but I have tiny interesting details in my sleeve. 😁)
Milkshake and Double-Cheese: my second attempt - my seriousfirst attempt - to write something for someone by a given prompt, I'm a bit proud I managed (sort of) to do that, especially with a character I've never thought I'd ever write. (more in the way to expand it more, not sure though when exactly)
Possibilities & A half of a half(a): ideas and prompts that don't belong under 'Heart AU' at all. (Except, the controversial ending of the latest one helped me a bit to use it for something in the future… 😁 I'm really proud of that idea, I have to say, but no more words, my lips are closed…)
LoD: if WTPH is my love-child, then LoD is my planned one, born in a 'stabile' background for it to exist safely. I fell in love with darkgray stories with Deliverance, so I wished for a long time to once write mine, I wasn't sure how, but I always wanted to do it. Well, LoD is my version for Valerie and Dan. :) Far away from Deliverance level, and I'm not sure if it could be counted then as darkgray one strictly, but I'm really looking forward to getting into it more once I can. (I have its first 4 and ½ chapters - the first one needs a very strong editing - but mostly it is prepared to share once WTPH is done. Also, I have 3 chapters in the middle, so when I manage to write the gap between the two written parts, then I'll be okay for a long time. Note: Sailor plays somewhere in its third part. Also, I have its entire main plot points so then I 'only' have to sit down for it and write - once, I don't have anything else to do.) (Note: missed yet to write Damon-one for Side Hoes Week gives a bit of start point for it.)
Dollhouse: definitely wrecks the 'innocence' of GG, so deny it, if you don't want it to be connected that. It's my messy child, my beloved black sheep in the family, and I'm proud of it too - though debating with myself constantly to continue working on that or not.
I think I listed everything that exists, now comes my ideas that are not out there yet, but in the line to exist soon:
20. What feedback makes you the happiest to hear?
planned InvisoBang one (no idea how to title it): if I could write it, then I'd be very proud. It's about an 'alternative' Dani, where she has her parents, getting into a similar situation like Danny when he got his ghostly powers, but of course, this story won't be the same as things that happened with Danny. I'll play a parallel game, many things will be the same at the same time, but different. Mostly it'll be about how things turn out if someone at some point decides else. If I could write it, then I'd the happiest person on Earth, not just because this idea wanted to be written, but also because I participated in an event to write something for a schedule, and I managed to do that. It's a big step, and not just writing something when I 'feel like that'.
All in all, every kind. I'm not getting much, so then I appreciate what I get - very very much. ^.^ I know there is a reader count but a feedback doesn't feel for me like a void. Any feedback is a note for me that someone not just 'accidentally' clicked on it or something. But if I could confess it from my heart, it's maybe when someone enlightens what they liked in something the most. It might be a really small detail, what they saw behind it, or an entire scene. I'd be glad to hear what effect a scene made. (Was it too much? Too lame? Did it make you wonder why that certain character said that or reacted the way they did?, etc.)
Also, it might be a constructive criticism too, I'm open to hearing that kind of feedbacks too. Like, if someone would be brave and tell me that they disagree with something, I'd like to hear it too, and explain how it was valid for example. (We even could get into a debate if you wish, but keep in mind, I'll always protect how I see my characters in my stories.) And I'd be happy to hear the 'turning point' too, what decided the fate of an actual story - closing the tab ('not my type'), or reading further (because something was catchy or you just want to see where it goes). And even more, a third option: if you read further, giving it a try what made you change your mind (same two ways apply here too - hate it from that point or it became catchy). In short, I'm curious. I'd love to hear anything. 😊 (Anything means, anything, if you want to write an essay about how much I misinterpret and picture a character who shouldn't be redeemed at all, then do it, it's okay too, my mailbox is ready for an intellectual battle to defend my choice of characterization.)
29. What part of the writing process do you enjoy the most? (Brainstorming, outlining, writing, editing, etc)
(Side note: I’d be happy to hear suggestion/feedback in case I use a word or expression wrong. Or to note me a typo. My not native ass begs for correction, and (polite) explaining to things. 😊. It’s okay to correct me. I’m okay with that too.
I guess, for me, it is the brainstorming and outlining process. Writing is fun too, after all, that's the part when everything gets on paper (document), and getting to live from one's brain, to then grow up into a chapter, but it is not always 'fun'. If the flow kicks in, then it's okay, but mostly it is just a struggle, over and over again. During the 'writing' process, I mostly write as things come into my mind, using brackets for words that don't come to my mind at that moment, or stopping constantly to look after how it is written (I have near to a dozen opened tabs for vocabulary if I sit down to write, that's my average number).
If, somehow the 'writing' process is okay, and everything is done from the beginning of a certain chapter to the end, then I call it the first 'draft'. I have for everything at least four-five drafts (in case of a ‘short’ story), before I start editing. Editing is my second torture. Sometimes, the plot shifts as I start correcting things. Sometimes, it stretches into more words, even as many that I have to cut it into parts. I'm not getting into it now, but you can imagine, it’s a damn circle, the writer’s devil wheel. Sometimes I just want to be a bit more familiar to use English, to avoid this endless circle during writing anything - funny though it is still easier for me than writing in my native language. So, my masochism is necessary and unavoidable.
In fact, brainstorming and outlining is not the best part of the writing process, if I think about that. The best part is (for me) when somehow, entirely unexpectedly something comes in and it clicks. Let me explain it through an example.
During the very beginning of WTPH, there was a comment that made everything betterbecause it made me realise I forgot about one certain basic thing during outlining my story - and believe me I took every single question what will happen that could lead everyone to the end and I answered them before I started writing WTPH, but still, somehow I overlooked this tiny detail...
I'm talking about this, the absolutely first comment to WTPH:
I forgot about the C.A.T. retake. I looked at my notes, and tried to search for the answer to how I could have forgotten it, but I didn’t find anything. I didn't write things that it was already written, nor that it wasn't written, so then I sat down and tried to figure out how to use it, because the part 'so soon'gave me a ring that it should be 'soon' after the C.A.T, but not after the retake… then it just clicked, and it clicked with many good ideas: the retake hasn't happened yet. It led then to many other questions, and soon it affected many things in the later chapters too. Like, Jazz thinking Dan is still there because of that - even though he said to her that he came because of Vlad (but it could have been a lie…). Dan having no cognition that there was an option to a retake, and against him, Danny was given that opportunity - creating the gap between them even more, how different they are. Then, there was an entire chapter about Danny and the retake - which was a great blink to 'avoid the shadow of the future' thought, and then as Danny got home, the 'future' (aka Dan) was there. And let's not forget the (untold) part that Dan got jealous that Danny got a second chance by doing a retake, feeling it unfair, doubling it with the truth that Jazz didn't 'remember' him, because Danny was a poor little puppy for Clockwork who 'retake' for him everything considered as faulty – cutting of everything that could have equaled with Dan or his timeline, how things happened, turned out, and everything... It is just a twist in the heart. And could have guessed this all came from one single part-note that just got stuck into my mind? No, of course not. Or could you imagine everything now without these parts and depths? Either. That is my best part, when from out of blue, something just clicks, making everything you have planned before, turning upside down and giving everything an even better background.
Anyway, thanks for the questions, those were hard to answer – especially the first one. 😃 (Seriously though, could anyone tell what is the story they are proudest of? Of course, it’s always the latest – or something… it’s an evil question, like asking what’s your favourite scene you’ve ever written – okay, no, surprisingly, I could give an answer for that 😅)
As I said, WTPH was officially outlined for 7 chapters. Now, you can imagine how much everything has changed with time by that (Just by numbers: it is standing now at 18/21-22 + 13 chapters in BOTP - it speaks for itself I guess). In conclusion, no matter the early brainstorming, or any attentive outlining, everything shifts to its final form at the editing - for me at least. Sometimes entire concepts got rewritten at the final part because the pace requires it to change into a completely different path. Mysteries of the soul of the story, I reckon. 😄
(I wait for the day when I won’t answer to something in a novel length…)

Codes | Bangchan College! AU
Chan takes an interest in the generous computer science major and makes it his mission to befriend her. (Content Warning: Mild swearing, suggestive language). Word Count: 1188 | Part 1 | Part 3
After class, you went home, ate dinner, studied, watched a few movies and went to bed. Nothing very eventful. These days were always uneventful for you. You weren’t bothered by it though.
The next day, the thought of seeing Chan made your stomach turn. In a good way of course. The classes leading up to your coding class dragged on once again. Upon your arrival however, Chris wasn’t there at his usual space.
After class ended, you found him in the courtyard on a bench eating a bagel.
“I thought skipping class was more for high schoolers.” You said as you sat beside him.
“I think I might drop the class actually.” Chris replied as he looked up at you.
You furrowed your eyebrows, worried, “Why?”
Chan noticed the way your voice softened, and felt himself get a little weak, “It’s not really a part of my major, that and I kinda suck at it.”
“Chris you know I could always help you out if you needed.”
He smiled at you, “You don’t always have to help everyone.”
You shrugged, “I like to. It’s kind of my thing.”
“Your thing?”
“Helping people is kind of fulfilling in my opinion.”
He hummed in response and looked down at his lap, “So about that date?”
“I’ll be free.” You said as you smiled.
“Good.”
__
Friday came entirely too fast, you had seen Chan in class but nothing much came out of the small conversation you had. Apart from exchanging numbers, there weren’t many advances made with him.
You wore a dress despite the cold weather and soon it was 8PM.
Chan was surprisingly on time, considering you didn’t really take him as the type of person to be punctual. When you opened the door to the entrance of your apartment, Chan was in a white button up shirt, layered under a leather jacket and a skinny black tie. His hair was pushed to the side and you could tell he’d worn a bit of concealer around his eyes and some spots on his face. It made you a bit proud that he’d put this much effort into his appearance for you.
“You look beautiful.” He said softly, his eyes crinkling a little as his perfect pink lips stretched into a smile.
You grinned and pressed a soft kiss to his dimpled cheek, “You’re the prettiest guy I’ve ever seen.” You saw his ears get red as he laughed shyly.
He hesitantly took your hand and led you outside. He let you lock your door before you both made your way to his car.
“So what’s in Gwangju?” You said as he walked to the passenger’s side with you and opened the car door for you.
“Lots of things are in Gwangju.” He replied as he let you climb into his car.
You playfully frowned at him as he closed the door. He laughed lightly as he crossed to the other side of the car and got inside.
He handed you a cord before turning on the car.
“What’s this for?”
“Aux cord, choose some music.” He replied, putting his seatbelt on.
You smirked to yourself before putting on Flightless Bird, American Mouth by Iron and Wine.
“This sounds familiar.” He said as he pulled out of the parking lot.
“It’s from Twilight.”
“The movie?” He said briefly glancing at you.
“Yeah, it plays in the final scene when the main characters dance.”
He nodded and stayed silent, listening intently to the lyrics.
“What is this song about?” He asked as he squinted a little in confusion.
“I have no idea.” You said as you laughed.
“It sounds beautiful, but the lyrics are just…” Chris trailed off.
“Gibberish?”
“Completely.” He said in agreement.
You played the rest of the Twilight soundtrack, the majority of the time talking about how beautiful it was. When you played Roslyn, Chan teared up a bit. The soundtrack truly struck a chord with him, despite the lack of depth some of the songs had.
By the time you got to the restaurant in Gwangju, you’d laughed, cried, and sang with him. It felt like meeting another half of yourself you had never realized was missing.
He walked around the car again to open the door for you, offering his hand to help you get it out. You took his large hand in yours and got out of the car, immediately feeling the cold weather hit you like a truck.
You shivered a little as you walked hand in hand towards the restaurant’s entrance.
He opened the door for you and immediately the hostess recognized him.
“Chris! Reservation upstairs right?” She greeted the both of you politely before taking you upstairs to a small stairway.
You climbed the stairs close behind the hostess and when you got to the top you stood behind her in shock.
There were warm toned fairy lights lining the balcony, and a single table was in the middle of the balcony. The table had two plates, silverware, and a pitcher with lemonade.
A soft breeze blew around you and you felt your heart soften. The knots in your stomach became undone as you thanked the waitress and turned to Chan, who had a big grin on his face, his dimples were on full display.
“Do you like it?” He said as he watched your expression carefully.
“I love it.” You said a smile spreading across your lips.
He guided you over to the chair and pulled it out for you.
“Actually can we try something else?” You said prompting him to push the chair back in.
You pulled out your phone and put on Flightless Bird, American Mouth again.
“Oh?” Chan said as he took your hands in his.
You chuckled and waltzed a little with him before he turned you and kept your back to his chest, enveloping you in his arms.
“I like this song despite the nonsense it says.” He whispered softly in your ear.
“I like you despite some nonsense you say.” You whispered back.
He laughed, still swaying softly to the music with you, “You haven’t heard the half of it.”
“You can tell me more nonsense over dinner.” You said.
He dipped you and stared into your eyes for a moment, “You are quite literally, the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen.” He whispered.
Before you could reply he stood you upright again and took your face in his hands.
You gave him a reassuring look before he leaned in and pressed his soft lips against your mouth. You kissed him back passionately, before pulling away.
You grabbed the pitcher of lemonade and poured the both of you a glass.
You gave him one of the glasses, “To you and I, and everything that comes after that.”
“Everything after?”
“There’s always an after.” You said before you clinked your glasses together and drank.
You closed the distance between each other and cupped his cheek, before kissing him again, this time the kiss lasting much longer.
The night continued on, the memory of first love reigning within your mind for perhaps the remainder of your life.

Hey guys! gg here, i just wanted to quickly thank y'all for supporting codes again! I didn't expect the amount of feedback I’d get on this au, especially for it being my first one,,,, I have a lot of content coming in the future. If you’ve sent a request, I’ve most likely already saw it, however because of the high demand in au’s, I'll be answering requests after I've finished an au, such as this one.

Hi Kara hope you're having a nice weekend! 🧡 For the author ask meme: 1, 5 and 23
Hi Hana, hope your weekend is going well so far too! 🥰
1) is there a story you’re holding off on writing for some reason?
I guess I’ve been holding off on my Gossip Girl AU. It would be Bellamy and Clarke as Dan and Serena and Murphy and Raven as Chuck and Blair. I think it first started because of all those characters I don’t have much practice writing Raven, and I want it to switch between all four of their POVs. I’m kind of over that fear now, but I do have to finish up my seasons 1-2 rewatch of GG and I just have a lot of other stories I would like to write first. But I am hoping that I will still eventually get to it!
5) character you were most surprised to end up writing
Probably Echo. She made her biggest appearance in any of my stories in We Don’t Need To Say It, which is my actor AU. I wanted Emori to have a friend when she went on tour, and it ended up being Echo. I’ve had a lot of fun writing her, and I’ve started using her as a character way more often than I would have expected.
23) any obscure life experiences that you feel have helped your writing?
Haha, I feel like none of the things I do are all that obscure? But I guess screenwriting and playwriting have helped my prose a lot. My writing style is kind of dialogue heavy as a result of this, but I also feel like in a sense it’s helped me figure out what are the most important bits of a certain story that need to end up on the page, if that makes sense? Like when you’re watching a play or a movie if something feels extraneous, you can really tell. So I think that mindset has kind of translated to my fic writing, which has been helpful in figuring out where a story needs to stop or a scene can end. Also I guess my general theater knowledge has shown up a lot in my stories, since that was my major in college.
Send me author asks about my fics!

More about Get well soon and never is a promise please!!
Yay thank you!! <33 Get Well Soon (The whole fic is actually called ‘It’s all in the cards’, but the first chapter is called ‘Get Well Soon’) Yes, a fic that I will never finish! I wrote this on a whim after the callsheets leaked and we kind of guessed that the girls would run things through a paper shop of some kind. I noticed I wrote it exactly a year ago and it’s a startling 10k - but while I like the set up. Plot starts with Beth getting a (very run down shop - it used to be tropical fish but they all died so the realtor can’t find a new renter) card store / coffee shop as a front. Visiting a dozen storage auctions to get her hands on a high end printer. And getting Lucy (who I wildly mischaracterized) to design the money, who needs it too because of a grueling divorce. In the mean time Rio’s presence starts leaking back into her life again, like when he starts sending cards in crimson envelopes with Lucy’s design to Beth:
Beth let the curtain drop back again and focused on the envelope, as she walked back to her bedroom. She turned it around in her hands, there was no address, no stamp. She dropped onto the bed as she opened the crimson envelope in her hands, extracting the midnight blue card from it. In swirly silver printed handwriting it said ‘Get Well Soon!’ surrounded by differently shaped stars. Beth almost sighed in relief, recognizing the print from Lucy’s Etsy. When she opened it though, it felt like she was being doused in icy cold water. ‘Thinking of you lots!’ was staring at her, mocking her with a scarily recognizable handwriting even without the weird e’s he usually wrote. Without another thought Beth threw the card into a corner, dimmed the lights, and crawled into the bed, hoping it would swallow her while she would fight her nightmares that night.
I haven’t read this fic in a year (I posted snippets, but I didn’t really read it) and I’m both extremely cringed out and still kind of in love with the crime plot in it. Rio doesn’t just creepy stalker send Beth the cards, but he also inserts people into her life, like a realtor and a divorce lawyer, without her knowing it was him. I was working towards a moment where the elementary school hosts a bachelorette auction and Rio has someone betting on Beth. Only to reveal his alive self on the actual date. I still might write that last idea, but it would be a whole separate fic.
Never is a Promise
Remember how I always say I dislike high school AU - and that i don’t like writing GG characters aged down. Well, while that is still true this is a title that was suggested when we did the fake fic title meme, and I thought of this story:
Beth and Rio met in their teens/early twenties at a holiday or summer camp - Rio’s single and Beth and Dean are on a break. When they parted they’d told each other they’d keep in touch, but all kinds of circumstances prevent them from following up on that. Years later, when Beth’s divorced, she finds a stack of letters Rio wrote her in the garage, that Dean managed to hide from her. His final letter says something like ‘Never is a promise, and I’ll always be waiting for you’, and Beth sets out to find Rio again.
Aside from that it would be a combination of chronological storytelling and epistolary parts from Rio’s letters I don’t really have anything down. But this is one of those fics I might write in a few days in one go. I always like to challenge myself a little with new fic and writing Beth and Rio as teens in a way that I like (even though it’s not the biggest part of the story) and trying the epistolary style in this way sounds like a lot of fun.

Not to bug you or anything but do you have an ETA for the last part of the pornstar au?! I’m SO excited and no pressure but it’s all I think about! 😂
Ah! You’re not bugging me at all! I’m constantly surprised and delighted by the fact that so many people love the fic, and I’ve had sooo many asks about it over the last few weeks, haha, so you’re in good company!
It’s actually finished now and sitting in my dropbox. I just want to give it one last big, good read-through to hopefully make sure it’s - - y’know. Not terrible, haha (plus there’s maaaaaybe one scene I think still needs a bit of tweaking), I’ve just been so swamped at work this week I haven’t had the chance to (especially now that it’s finished at almost 25k, so it will take a few hours to read closely).
With any luck, I might get the chance to tomorrow, but I’ve got the day off from work on Friday (Aus time) and only a Skype wine-time with a friend planned otherwise, so hopefully over the next two days?
I did want to take this chance to say that I’m sorry I haven’t posted like I said I would (and that I’ve been less active on here) - I’m okay (and as obsessed with GG as ever, haha), but work’s just been terrible with coronavirus and the cuts to arts funding in Australia, plus there was a sexual misconduct scandal involving a person and an organisation I worked with regularly which was just - - a lot. On top of that, my cat’s been sick, my brother (who lives with me) had a pretty major breakdown, my sister for some reason tried to get plastic surgery this week which - - do not get me started, haha. Plus I’m the mum-friend with my friends too, so I’ve been counselling a lot of them, many of whom are in crisis, over the phone at the moment. Which I want to do! Of course! But it is exhausting, and, honestly, all of that is making me feel like I have less free time than ever.
On top of that, I’ve been finding just generally that I’m a slower writer than I am usually? I think that’s probably due to broader social anxieties right now, of course, but I promise I’m as frustrated with it as I think some of you probably are.
But hey! On a positive note! I can say though that I’m pretty darn proud of this chapter and the writing I am doing, even if it is happening slower, so that’s really nice at least :-) I hope it doesn’t disappoint when I do post it!

AU-gust Day 16- Treasure Hunters
Hmph. I was so sure I’d be able to finish yesterday, but after being stuck in a car so long I guess I was just too tired.
This one isn’t especially long, and I’m not sure if it really counts, either? I mean, treasure hunting is involved, but I mostly wanted to do something with my GG Persona AU. Then again, what, am I going to go to jail if I don’t do all the prompts perfectly?...well, maybe.
(Also this one has a smidge of Sinbed because self-indulgence. Sorry not sorry)
For a guy who wore an eyepatch, Sin had pretty good eyesight, at least when it came to scouting. The good new about that was he made for an excellent finder of treasure chests hidden at the end of dungeon hallways, and seeing how their ragtag ‘Investigation Team’ was made up entirely of schoolkids with shaky paychecks on the best of days, they appreciated any shiny trinkets they could sell off for healing items and weapon upgrades.
The biggest downside was that, though he was an excellent chest-finder, he wasn’t quite as good as noticing the shadows guarding it until it was too late.
“Dammit, it was guarded?” He hissed, recoiling as the dark sludge formed into a trio of Principality.
“And they’re decently strong ones, too! But it doesn’t look like there’s a good way to evade them, we can’t run!” Said Potemkin, balling his large hands into fists. “Should we try and call the rest of the team? I’m not sure if they’re too far away to hear, but-”
“It doesn’t matter!” Elphelt shouted, pulling out Miss Travallier to shoot her card and summon Anteros. “Just don’t let your guard down!”
They didn’t have any major tricks up their sleeve, but between Potemkin’s physical skills, Elphelt’s healing spells, Ram’s fire, and his own pool of Personas on-hand, Sin couldn’t find it in him to be especially worried.
Elphelt boosted everyone’s defense with Marakukaja before taking a step back. Potemkin lunged forward to attack head-on, and Sin summoned Perseus to fire up a Mazionga. They seemed off to a strong start, with the two victims of their attacks taking a decent chunk of their health off before they could even attack. If they kept up the quick attacks, then they had a pretty good chance to make it out unscathed, right? He was feeling confident about that.
...At least until a flurry of cards tangled around Elphelt, and she suddenly collapsed to the ground like a marionette with snipped strings.
“El?!” He shouted, falling back halfway through another lightning strike. Sin dug through his pockets for a revival bead while Perseus took a thankfully nonlethal blow. “Guys, be careful! At least one of them has an instant-kill spell!”
They still had a few beads on-hand, but as soon as he felt Elphelt stir, he heard Potemkin shout in pain and felt the vibration of him collapsing. “S-shit! El! Get up! We’re taking hits!”
“I am injured.” Ramlethal’s voice managed to carry over the other sounds of the firefight, with a definite tinge of concern to her usually-neutral tone. Nike was fast, but she still struggled to dodge the attacks of three enemies all at once, all the while with Ram trying to find a revival item for Potemkin.
The three shadows managed to get lucky with instant-kill spells remarkably often, leaving the remaining members scrambling to use whatever revival items they had while avoiding more potshots, and any hits they could actually land were quickly healed.
“Dammit! My SP is almost gone! Do we have anything for that?!” Sin barked, as Perseus fired a flimsy bolt of lightning that barely nicked one of the Principality.
“I-I think Ram just drank our last coffee…” El stammered in reply, trying to revive Potemkin yet again while only hobbling by on a handful of HP, herself. “I have enough for a few more healing spells, but we’ve only got the one bead left. Are you sure we can’t run?”
At every opportunity, they had tried, only for the shadows to intercept them. He liked being an optimist, but Sin knew that things had gone horribly downhill. When he tried to conjure more electricity, all it got him in return was a hard smack that knocked his Persona to the ground.
“Shit, brace yourselves- !”
“Did someone need assistance?”
A familiar silver-and-purple gundam skated into the room, throwing up a barrier wall to catch a couple of magic blasts.
“Finally! There you are, we’ve been looking for you!” An echoing voice came from the large machine, but its mouth didn’t move. “Good think you make such a racket.”
“Bedman! About time!” Sin felt himself grinning.
“Looks like you’re all in rough shape. Good thing I brought backup.”
The shadows were still too distracted by the new barrier to care much about the newcomers who ran into the treasure room right under their noses. Ariadne and Thalassa carried Bridget and May in their respective free arms, while Zappa ran along behind. The mechanical Persona began releasing purple smoke from its head-pipes, and a glimmering veil surrounded both it and the second half of the Investigation Team.
“Get ready for an overclock!” The echoing voice shouted. “You're buffed! May, you’re on healer duty, but just focus on knocking out those shadows!”
“Roger!” Bridget hopped off of Ariadne, and began barraging the Principality with physical attacks as soon as the barrier wall began to fragment. Zappa trailed behind with curse spells as Mania dangled over him limply. May did as instructed, throwing on a few mild healing spells, but the evasion buffs made it so it was less necessary than usual.
Following the initial difficulty, the battle swiftly shifted sides. The enemies finally burst back into piles of darkness and faded away, leaving behind nothing but a small pile of money.
“Oh, god, finally…” Sin sat on the ground and tried to catch his breath. “Nearly thought we were goners for a second.”
“Don’t run off like that next time!” May chided him. “How did you even get stuck in here in the first place, it’s a dead end!”
He pointed over his shoulder. “I saw a chest! I thought there’d be something valuable in it.”
“Well, if we cleared this room out, more shadows shouldn’t appear for a while, right?” Asked Elphelt, as she wandered toward the unattended box on a pedestal. “And since that almost got us into some hot water, it’d better be something good.”
“Yeah!” Sin managed to spring back up, following after her. “I’ve got the picks, let’s see what we got!”
Everyone else trailed behind, more than a little interested in whatever shiny trinket was so interesting that it nearly got half their team killed. Sin easily jimmied the lock open, pried the creaky lid back, and...
“Uh...looks like a cheap gemstone...and a piece of armor we already have.”
A collective groan went through the group, plus a few muffled curses and less-than-polite gestures. Sin still pocketed the small gem, but he was in the same boat as the rest of them. “Well, I guess you win some, you lose some. Let’s head back to the safe room to take a break. Bedman, think you can carry Pot? I don’t think we’ll have any luck trying it ourselves.”
The mecha nodded, scooping the unconscious man up like a sack of potatoes. “Everyone can hop on if they don’t feel like walking.”
A few took him up on the offer, and they all headed back. Maybe it was just imaginary, but the safe room felt far warmer and cozier than the rest of the dungeon. At least they knew no more shadows would be popping out to take them by surprise.
“Must be nice having a Persona you can ride in, Bedman.” Bridget said, sliding off the machine’s arm. “Ariadne can barely carry me!”
“Morpheus is remarkably comfortable on the inside, though I can admit it was frightening the first time I was dragged into him. For all I knew, he could have been trying to eat me.”
“I’ve got sandwiches!” Zappa chirped, hoisting up a makeshift lunchbox for everyone to see. “The boss lets me take the ready-made ones once they’re passed the sell-by date, but I promise they’re still good!”
“Ah, damn, that sounds perfect right now.” Sin went up to grab half of a turkey sandwich and begin munching on it.
After being revived, Potemkin found a place to sit near his much smaller leader. “I’m glad you were able to figure something out in the end. But next time, let’s be more careful. Treasure rooms are often more dangerous than one would expect.”
“Yeah, yeah, you’re right.” Replied Sin, between bites of sandwich. “How’s Kratos?”
“Perfectly fine, I just don’t summon him unless I need him.” Potemkin reached across the table to pull out an egg sandwich, which looked positively miniscule in his large hands. “I’m not sure why you leave yours out so much when we aren’t in battle.”
Sin tilted his head. “Huh? What do you mean? He isn’t out now.”
The man gave him an odd look back. “What do you mean? He’s up there.”
When he looked up to where Potemkin was pointing, Sin was surprised to see that he was right. Perseus hadn’t dissipated, instead he sat on Morpheus’s shoulder, apparently perfectly comfortable where he was. He’d never realized how large Morpheus was, especially odd considering the respective sizes of their owners, but there was plenty of space for his Persona to sit and relax on his teammate.
“Huh?” The girls seemed to notice his staring. “What’s Perseus doing…?”
“I dunno, El. I didn’t make him do that.” He shrugged back. “Why does it even matter?”
“Hmm…” Despite herself, Elphelt had to side-eye the rather affectionate way Perseus cuddled up on his teammate, wrapping an arm around one of his pipe-horns. Hey, weren’t Personas supposed to be a manifestation of their owners...? “Hey, Sin, can I ask you something?”
“Yeah, what?”
“Do you...have a crush on anyone?”
Sin balked. “The heck? What does that have to do with anything? What made you ask?”
Behind him, Perseus’ gloved hand stroked Morpheus’ sleek metal head, before he went back to cuddling his horn.
Elphelt glanced away, resisting the urge to blush. “No reason. Just wondering.”

remember that time i tried to write a deancas gilmore girls fusion/au for pinefest and never finished it because it kept growing into monster beyond my ability to wrangle at the time? here, have a ridiculous scene that you’ll definitely recognize if you’ve watched GG.
Castiel blinks.
His alarm goes off at six forty-five am precisely, tearing without warning into an unpleasant electronic war cry at a decibel that startles him straight into wide-eyed, heart-pounding wakefulness. Groaning, Castiel smashes the snooze button and drops back down onto his pillow with a sigh of relief. He’s still got time, and a few more minutes of shut-eye would do him a world of good after last night, he’s sure.
Just as he’s drifting back off, lulled by the familiar sounds of Claire doing her morning puttering, another alarm goes off; this time, it’s a shrill, metallic ringing from across the room – that cute red analog clock that Dorothy scored for him at a flea market a few years ago, which he mostly keeps around for show. He doesn’t remember setting it, but he figures that Past Castiel must have been trying to look after the needs of sleep-deprived Future Castiel, and so he only curses Past him out a little bit as he hauls himself up to go turn it off.
Ahhh, peace and quiet.
Squinting, Castiel gazes back at his still-warm, rumpled bed with all the ardour of a lover. He’s technically the boss – he could probably start at ten today, if he wanted. Michel would grumble of course, but then again, bitching and moaning is sort of Michel’s bread and butter, and Castiel is loathe to deprive him of his primary motivation. All he knows is that his sheets are never quite as enticingly soft as they are at seven in the morning, and that he wants nothing more than to sink back into their comforting embrace for another hour or so. So he does, pausing to text Claire before he pulls the blanket over his head.
Not ready to face the world yet! Take 20 from my wallet and get a cab to school, please. Will pick you up after. Maybe Dean’s? XOXO
Sleep rushes back in and pulls him under so quickly it might as well be a tide, and he the moon. He drifts there fitfully, just under the surface of consciousness, receiving vague impressions of colour and light and motion around him. Somewhere deep inside of himself, he registers the thought: this must be how babies feel, curled up in the womb. He chuckles, pleased with his own childish wisdom, and the vibration of it ripples outward in luminous concentric circles.
Castiel blinks.
His alarm goes off.
Actually, he realizes fairly quickly, it’s not just one alarm clock, but a multitude of them, all over his room, every size, colour, and shape that he could possibly have imagined – all of them buzzing and beeping and whirring and screaming and honking, even one blasting hard rock music at a nearly inconceivable volume.
“What,” says Castiel, “the fuck?”
It takes him nearly ten minutes to locate all of the clocks and subdue each one by whatever means necessary, near-frantic in his urgency, his ears throbbing painfully under the assault. The last one - a cheap, dinky little thing with the dollar store sticker still on – almost proves to be his undoing; it only goes quiet when Castiel wrenches his window open and chucks it into the road, where someone in a noisy pickup truck promptly runs over it. “And good riddance!” he shouts. He winces as he slams the sash down slightly harder than he meant to, but thankfully nothing breaks.
“Claire!” He yells down as he dresses himself, scarcely bothering to look at the clothes he’s grabbing from his dresser. “I hope you find murder just as funny as that little stunt!” Castiel jogs down the stairs in his bare feet, catching a whiff of bacon as he goes. Now he’s really confused - practical joker or not, since when has Claire ever in her life cooked him breakfast? “Is it my birthday, or are you just trying to butter me up so I don’t – oh!”
“Hey baby,” says Dean, looking back over his shoulder to flash a lazy smile at Cas. His voice is rough, sleep-worn and sexy; Castiel tries not to adjust the front of his trousers too conspicuously. Dean’s wearing his thinnest, most frayed Zeppelin t-shirt, the one that’s way too stretched out at the neck, and a pair of tight red boxer briefs that Castiel belatedly recognizes as his own. “You want some coffee? It’s fresh.”
“Nnggh,” Castiel agrees through gritted teeth. He inches his way over to the coffee maker without taking his eyes off Dean, who’s back to focusing on his pan of bacon as though he hasn’t another care in the world. He pours himself a cup and takes his first sip, still staring holes into the back of Dean’s skull as though the answers to Castiel’s thousand questions might be engraved on his brain. I must be dreaming, Castiel thinks desperately. Dean is not in my kitchen. Dean is not cooking me breakfast in my own kitchen wearing my underwear right now. I have to be dreaming. Wake up, Castiel. Wake up!
At any rate, even dream-Castiel turns out not to have X-ray vision, and no matter how long he stands there watching Dean, he just won’t disappear. Eventually, he gathers up every shred of courage he can find, clears his throat, and asks, “Dean…do you mind explaining what the hell is going on?!”
“Shit,” says Dean, looking back at him again. He sighs. “I knew you were going to notice.”
“Of course I was going to notice!” Castiel splutters. “How could you possibly think I wouldn’t?”
Dean chuckles. He starts lifting cooked bacon out of the pan onto a plate lined with paper towel, then drains the grease into an empty tin can. “I swear, Cas,” he says, shaking his head, “you shouldn’t be able to taste the difference between decaf and regular coffee.”
“First of all,” Castiel spits back, “shut your filthy mouth. That is utter sacrilege, especially coming from a supposed connoisseur like yourself.” He paces over to Dean and gets right up his personal space, poking one accusing finger into the dead centre of his chest. “Second – I demand that you tell me what you’re doing here.”
“Trying to prevent future generations from getting their developing brains addled, dumbass,” Dean says. He pauses just long enough to crack a pair of eggs into the still-hot pan, then turns back to a bewildered Castiel with a shit-eating grin on his face. “God, you’re adorable when you’re pissed off, you know that? But you heard what the doctor said, sweetheart. You have to limit your daily caffeine intake, or else it could have a negative impact on the babies.”
“Sweetheart,” Castiel echoes. Suddenly, his ears are ringing again. “Babies.”
Just as suddenly, Dean is on his knees. Castiel looks down at him, only to realize that Dean’s head is dwarfed by Castiel’s enormously swollen stomach. Holy shit. Is he pregnant? “How are my little Clarence and Clarice today, anyway?” Dean coos, lifting Castiel’s shirt so that he can place a series of tender kisses around his navel. “These kung-fu fighters keep you awake all night again, Cas? You’re looking kind of out of it.”
Castiel blinks.
His alarm goes off.
It’s 9:32 AM; he’s clearly right on the edge of a mental breakdown, and more than that, he’s definitely going to be late for work.
“Oh my god,” he whispers to the ceiling.
#crack utter crack#castiel/dean winchester#spn/gilmore girls fusion#mention of mpreg#dream sequence#pure unadulterated silliness#cas is lorelai#and dean is luke#and this whole thing is a nonsensical stretch that I nonetheless love#and can never quite let go of as much as it drives me mad#snippet of a fic#that i will finish#maybe when I'm 92

Six Baudelaires AU, Part Three {AO3} {Masterlist} {Part One} {Part Two}
Chapter Fifteen → in which Lilac and Fiona are Gay as Hell
It wasn’t until after they finished their chowder, and Phil left to clean the dishes, that Klaus asked, “Captain Widdershins? VFD stands for Volunteer Fire Department, right?”
“Aye!”
“Then why are you underwater?”
Nick, who was helping Fiona and Solitude clean up the tidal charts, said, “Because they’re not a literal fire department, more of a figurative one.”
“Aye!” Widdershins nodded, not noticing Nick’s disdainful tone. “I’m told it started that way, but the volunteers were interested in every such thing! I was one of the first to sign up for Voluntary Fish Domestication. That was one of the missions of Anwhistle Aquatics. Aye! I spent four long years training salmon to swim upstream and search for forest fires. That was when you were very young, Fiona, but your brother worked right alongside me. You should have seen him sneaking extra worms to his favorites! Aye! The program was a modest success! Aye! But then Cafe Salmonella came along, and took our entire fleet away. The Snicket siblings fought as best they could! But as the poet wrote, ‘too many waiters turn out to be traitors.’”
“I am so lost.” Violet admitted.
“The Snicket siblings?” Klaus asked. “Like Jacques?”
“Aye! Jacques was once a member of our crew! He-”
“We think we found a message directed to him.” Lilac said. “That’s how we found out there was a gathering, it was Verbal Fridge Dialogue, addressed to JS.”
“That’s impossible! Aye!” Widdershins waved his hand. “Jacques Snicket is dead! Aye! Nobody would address a message to a dead person!”
“Perhaps the sender didn’t know.” Violet said.
“Or perhaps it was some other JS.” Solitude said.
“Speaking of mysterious initials,” Klaus said, “I wonder what GG stands for. If we knew what the cave was called, we might have a better idea of our journey.”
“Aye!” Captain Widdershins said. “Let’s guess!”
“Aye, let’s not.” Nick said.
Fiona frowned as she pushed the tidal charts into a drawer. “Wait a minute.” she said. “I may have an idea.”
“Really?” Lilac asked, watching her as she ran to a cabinet.
“I just remembered a recent addition to my mycological library.” Fiona said, opening a door and pulling out a book. “This might be useful.”
The captain sighed. “You and your mushrooms and molds!”
“Let her speak.” Lilac snapped, shooting him a glare. “She has an idea.”
“It was in the table of contents.” Fiona said, bringing the book back over to the table, as the Baudelaires peered over her shoulder. “Chapter Thirty-Six, The Yeast of Beasts. Chapter Thirty-Seven, Morel Behavior in a Free Society. Chapter Thirty-Eight, Fungible Mold, Moldable Fungi. Chapter Thirty-Nine, Visitable Fungal Ditches. Chapter Forty, The Gorgonian Grotto- there!”
“Grotto?” Sunny asked.
“Another word for cave.” Violet said.
Fiona flipped to Chapter Forty, and then read aloud, “The Gorgonian Grotto, located in propinquity to Anwhistle Aquatics, has appropriately wraithlike nomenclature, with roots in Grecian mythology, as this conical cavern is fecund with what if perhaps the bugaboo of the entire mycological pantheon.”
“Aye! I told you that book was too difficult!” Captain Widdershins said. “A young child can’t unlock that sort of vocabulary!”
“Piss off, we can get it.” Nick hissed.
“Aye! Watch your language!”
“Aye! I don’t give a fuck!”
Klaus sighed and pushed Nick back so he could get a better look at the book. “It says the Gorgonian Grotto is named after something in Greek mythology.”
“Gorgon!” Solitude said excitedly, shaking her head as if she still had snakes woven into it. “It’s named after Medusa!”
“That sounds right.” Nick said.
“She was a legendary monster who could turn people into stone.” Fiona mentioned.
“Aye! I think I went to school with such a woman!” the captain said.
“Snakes!” Solitude said excitedly.
“The book is saying,” Lilac said, “That it’s appropriate that the grotto is named after a legendary monster, becauses there’s a sort of monster living in a cave- a bugaboo.”
“Bugaboo?” Sunny asked.
“A bugaboo can be any kind of monster.” Klaus said. “We could call Count Olaf a bugaboo, if we felt so inclined.”
Nick stared very hard at the floor. “I’d rather not speak of him at all.”
“This bugaboo is a fungus of some sort.” Fiona said, and she continued reading. “The Medusoid Mycelium has a unique conducive strategy of waxing and waning: first a brief dormant cycle, in which the mycelium is nearly invisible, and then a precipitated flowering into speckled stalks and caps of such intense venom that it is fortunate the grotto serves as a quarantine.”
“Translation, please.” Solitude said, turning to Klaus.
Before Klaus could say anything, though, Fiona spoke up. “It’s rather simple, really. There are three main parts to a mushroom. You can see the cap and the stalk, but the part you can’t see is the mycelium. It’s like a bunch of thread, branching out underneath the ground. Some mushrooms have mycelia that go on for miles.”
Lilac sat on the table, eyes wide. “I remember reading a little about that at Prufrock, when we were studying the fungus in our shack.”
“I’d love to hear about that, when we have time.” Fiona smiled. “But it says here that the Medusoid Mycelium waxes and wanes, which means the caps and stalks spring up from the mycelium, and then wither away, and then spring up again. So you don’t know the mushrooms are there until they poke up from the ground.”
“That sounds unnerving.” Violet said, as Klaus pulled out his commonplace book to write this down.
“Oh, it gets worse.” Fiona said, not sounding very bothered at all; she was too excited about her fungus. “The mushrooms are exceedingly poisonous. Listen to this: ‘As the poet says, “A single spore has such grim power / That you may die within the hour.”’ A spore is like a seed- if it has a place to grow, it will become another mycelium. But if someone eats it or breaths it in, it could cause death.”
“Within the hour.” Lilac repeated.
“Monev,” Sunny said, which meant, “That’s a fast-acting poison.”
“Must fungal poisons have cures,” Fiona said, “And the poison of a deadly fungus can be the source of some wonderful medicines. I’ve been working on a few myself, actually. But this book says it’s lucky the grotto acts as a quarantine.”
“Quarwa?” Sunny asked.
“Quarantine is when something dangerous is isolated, so the danger cannot spread.” Nick explained to her, also sitting on the table.
“Because the Medusoid Mycelium is in uncharted waters, very few people have been poisoned.” Violet said.
“If someone brought even one spore to dry land,” Lilac shivered, “Who knows what would happen?”
“We won’t find out!” Widdershins said. “We’re not going to take any spores! Aye! We’re just going to grab the Sugar Bowl and be on our way! Aye! I’ll set a course right now!”
“Are you sure?” Fiona asked, shutting the book. “It sounds very dangerous.”
“Dangerous? Aye! Dangerous and scary!” the captain said, already climbing the rope ladder to the controls of the submarine. “Scary and Difficult! Aye! Difficult and mysterious! Aye! Mysterious and uncomfortable! Aye! Uncomfortable and risky! Aye! Risky and noble! Aye!”
“I’m going to take Solitude back to our room,” Nick muttered, picking up the toddler, “Where we don’t have to listen to him. Anyone else wanna go?”
“Even if it could hurt us, aye! The amount of treachery in this world is enormous! Aye! Think of the crafts we saw on the sonar screen! There’s always something more enormous and terrifying on our tails!”
“I’ll take Sunny.” Violet said.
“And so many of the noble submarines are gone! Aye! You think the Herman Melville suits were the only noble uniforms in the world? There used to be volunteers with PG Wodehouse and Carl Van Vechten! There were Comyns and Cleary and Archy and Mehitabel! But now volunteers are scarce! So the best we can do is one small noble thing!”
“We should really get some sleep.” Klaus agreed, shutting his commonplace book. “Before the grotto.”
“Like retrieving the Sugar Bowl! Aye! Remember my personal philosophy! He who hesitates is lost!”
“Or she!” Fiona said.
“Or they!” Solitude added.
“Lilac, you coming?” Violet asked, as she lifted up Sunny from the table.
Lilac hesitated. “Um, Fiona, I’d… like to see your fungal experiments. If that’s alright. Maybe I can help.”
Fiona smiled. “Maybe. I could use a mechanic.”
The Baudelaires all shared a very excited look, and when Fiona turned her back, Lilac gave them a glare and a middle finger.
“You all get some sleep. I’ll meet you in the dorms.” she said.
“You have all this in your room?” Lilac asked, spinning around the room to take it all in.
“Well, technically I sleep in the dorms, because I converted that bed into a table, and used the strips of the mattress to make some wall art.” Fiona said nervously.
Inside the small room- barely larger than the closet, Lilac noted- several tanks had been set up, as well as multiple other containment boxes. A large table, that had been crudely fashioned from the bed, sat in the middle, holding some of the tanks, as well as a flow hood, several tools, blocks and jars, and scattered mycological books.
“I know I should have a better table, but it’s the best I can get.” Fiona said. “Stepfather won’t buy me mycological equipment, so I have to get it all myself. My mother told me to just throw bricks through shop windows and steal what I need, but I’m not near those a lot, so improv it is.”
“It’s very impressive.” Lilac whispered, kneeling down to look over several petri dishes. “Are you growing some in here?”
“Yes. But I’ve got some in the plant terrariums, too.” Fiona said, gesturing to the tanks that she’d managed to attach to the walls. “A bit difficult to make sure they stay upright in such an old submarine, but that just makes it a challenge, and challenges are fun.”
“Which one’s this?” Lilac asked, moving to a tank. “Are those wood chips?”
“Yes. Those are my Stropharia Rugosoannulata mushrooms.” Fiona walked over, gesturing proudly. “They’re good at bioremediation, I hope to start setting them out in polluted waterways after the meeting on Thursday, once I get the okay from some other volunteers.”
“Stropharia Rugosoannulata.” Lilac repeated slowly.
“I mean, you could call them King stropharia. I just like the scientific names. They’re fun to say.”
“Oh, that’s completely valid.” Lilac smiled. “I learned Russian when I was younger just because the boys read Anna Karenina and all the names were fun to say.”
“You speak Russian?”
“I mean, I’m not fluent-”
“That’s still impressive. All I’ve got is Latin, Māori and Urdu.”
“I know more Italian. Mom taught me a lot, because operas are usually Italian.”
“Your Mother was an Opera singer?”
“An actress.” Lilac paused. “What about your Mom? What did she do?”
“She helped on the submarine.” Fiona’s face fell slightly, and she moved over to a group of mushroom grow bags. “Um, I don’t remember much about her. She died when I was five or six, and Stepfather doesn’t tell me much about her.”
Lilac flinched. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t-”
“It’s alright. My brother was a poet.” Fiona smiled. “At least, that’s what I remember from him. He disappeared around the same time as my Mother… but he was around much more, because he didn’t have to do as much Volunteer work. His job was watching me. He taught me how to play cards.”
“Our parents were Volunteers, too.” Lilac muttered.
“I know.”
“But we didn’t.” Lilac sighed. “We didn’t know anything about VFD.”
Fiona blinked. “Really? I’ve been raised completely in VFD, I just assumed that’s how all Volunteers recruited their kids.” Lilac shook her head, and then Fiona carefully asked, “What did your brother mean? About… recruitment?”
“I don’t… know. Nick learned a lot of things while he was captured, but when he tries to say them… it doesn’t always work out.” Lilac glanced at her. “But he, um, doesn’t have a great opinion of VFD.”
Fiona bit her lip. “Well. Maybe we can discuss that when we get the Sugar Bowl. I’m not sure we have enough diving suits, but maybe he’ll want to go.”
“Do you know how small the cave is?”
“Afraid not.”
“He’s not too good with small spaces.”
“Then hopefully we get to the last safe place fast.” Fiona said. “This submarine seems smaller the longer you’re here. And I hope the last safe place is big.”
“Well, it’s a hotel.” Lilac said. “That’s gotta be big.”
Fiona stared at her.
“Oh. You didn’t know that.”
“My… Stepfather said that I didn’t need to know. That all I needed to know was what VFD needed from me.”
“That’s a horrible way to live.” Lilac said. “If all we knew was what we were told, we’d never know what was right or wrong for ourselves.”
“I don’t really have a choice. He’s my guardian, and VFD left him in charge of me.”
“Count Olaf was our guardian.” Lilac glared down at a tank of wood logs and Hericium Erinaceus. “And we fought back. We’re still fighting, and we’ll never stop until he’s…” she took a deep breath. “Until he can’t hurt us anymore.”
“I wish I was as brave as you. You must be fearless to go through all of what you have and still be sane.”
“We’re not fearless. I’m definitely not. But I’m…” Lilac struggled to find the words. “Hopeful. That one day everything will set itself right, or at least right enough we can find a place for ourselves.” She smiled. “No matter what… there’s always something.”
Fiona beamed at her, and then she said, “Listen, if you… if you don’t want to listen to me blabber on about fungi, I think we have some stuff that you could repair if you-”
“No! No, I want to hear it. I like…” Lilac paused. “I like hearing you talk about mushrooms. You get really passionate about it.”
“Passionate.” Fiona repeated. “Well, maybe you can tell me about your inventions or repairs afterwards.”
“Maybe I can fix that table up.” Lilac said, pulling her ribbon from her pocket and starting to tie back her hair. “What’s that over there?”
“Lentinula Edodes.” Fiona said, smiling at some fungus growing on a hardwood log. “Also known as Shiitake Mushrooms.”
“Shiitake?”
“Don’t start.” Fiona giggled.
“Don’t tell Violet and Nick what they’re called, or you’ll never hear the end of it.”
“Noted.”
They gave each other a look, and then burst out laughing.
Lilac and Fiona returned to the dorms very late, arms linked together as they chatted about a book they’d both enjoyed, about another sugar bowl whose contents were actually very well known. When they swung open the door, though, they quieted, and Lilac let out a soft gasp as she saw her siblings.
Violet and Klaus were sleeping on individual bunks, and Klaus had a book about different currents open on the pillow beside him. Solitude and Sunny had fallen asleep beside each other, curled under a single blanket, while Babbitt slept on a pillow, kicking their legs in their sleep. Nick, meanwhile, was passed out on a chair near the door, almost having fallen over; Lilac recognized this position quickly, from the many times he and Klaus or Violet would sit at the bottom of the stairs waiting for their parents to come home late at night.
“He was waiting for us.” Lilac whispered to Fiona, who smiled. Lilac slowly let go of Fiona’s arm and walked over, carefully lifting up her brother. She was having a bit of difficulty; shit, he was taller than her now. When did he and Klaus get so big?
She carried him to a bunk, lowering him onto it. “Go back to being five years old, okay?” Lilac whispered, reaching over to grab a blanket. “We’ll lock you in the closet again and then make ice cream towers.”
Fiona giggled a little, as she climbed up to her top bunk, watching with a very soft gaze. Lilac turned around, and flinched as she saw Nick starting to move.
“No, no,” she moved back to him, running a hand over his hair. “Go back to sleep. You need it.”
“Nu-uh.” he muttered, but Lilac could tell that in his few seconds of conscious, he’d already started to fall asleep again.
Lilac sighed and pulled the blanket over him. “You’ll be okay. You want me to sing?”
“Mm.”
“I’m not sure if that was a yes or a no.” Lilac laughed. “Just… go back to bed.”
Nick mumbled again. “Thanks, Mom.”
He was passed out again before Lilac could process what he’d said. She stared at him, her face paling. Fiona peered over the bunk, astonished to see tears start to form in her eyes. “Lilac?”
She stepped back, putting a hand over her face. Fiona leaned over the bunk until the eldest Baudelaire looked up at her, and then she said, “Are… I’m sorry, is this a happy or sad cry?”
Lilac opened her mouth to answer, but stopped. Like she herself wasn’t sure.
“Good or bad cry?”
Lilac shut her eyes. “Both.” she admitted.
“Both.” Fiona repeated, and then she reached out her hand to wipe Lilac’s tears away. “Aye.”

~
so,,,your love life
not that exciting
in fact, it is facing a drought at the moment
reality is harsh huh?
or maybe it is because of your high standards
1. No younger guys
2. Must be a nice person
3. Someone I could foresee marrying
but none of your blind dates left you impressed
and then there’s this kid from the music block called Ong Seongwoo
he’s just one of the guys trying to worm his way into your ‘possible boyfriend’ list
scarily enough, his tactics were working
~
we gon throw this waayyy back when y’all met
frat parties were never your thing
in fact, f*ck linda and this stupid party, I just want to go home and sleep
you love your roommate and all but you couldn’t help but curse her out
after all, she had dragged you to this party thrown by one of the music department frat guys
and left you stranded
in a hallway with at least 3 couples passionately making out
tonight was not your night at all
you hated the loud, shitty music and the smell of sweat and liquor
appalling
but linda was your ride here and there was a slim chance of hailing a cab right now
you had no choice but to suck it up and rough it out
Another issue
you needed to finish that essay on sustainable fashion before the 6am deadline
shit
gr8 job prof
all-nighter?
borrow a laptop from someone and do it now?
what the hell
which person would bring a laptop to a frat party?
unless you can break into one of their rooms and take one??1?1?11
you almost slap yourself at the idea
dumb worried bitch energy
sis is out of ideas and just wants to graduate be a little empathetic, folks
you want to sit down on the floor and sink into a puddle of goo
oh no
there’s no way you are going to maintain this 3.9 GPA lmaoo
you move to wrestle Linda away from one of the frat guys
but hollers and cheers stop you
a group of guys block your path as they welcome yet another friend
but get this! the newcomer has a laptop case in his hands!!
he appears to have just come from a lecture or meeting
bUT HE HAS A LAPTOP YAYAYAYAYA
now, all you had to do was to stalk him, suck up to him and steal borrow the device
sucking up to one of these frat boys was easy
their brains had been bruised with bud lights so they weren’t the brightest of the bunch
before you know it, he’s whisked away by his friends and dissolved into the crowd
crap
you really, genuinely, wholly, need this laptop
They would help a fellow college student in need, right?
left with no choice, you elbow your way through
I suppose your efforts pay off
bc you catch him as he’s headed upstairs
barely
“hey!” you yell over the noise. “I-I...”
the mystery guy only stares, quizzically
suddenly, you’ve lost all ability to form coherent sentences
this is embarrassing!
hE JUST LOOKING
sis gotta calm down
remember the real reason: laptop
“c-can i borrow your laptop real quick? I have a d-deadline tonight”
mystery boy says nothing
...
“What’s it in for me? If i lend you my laptop?”
he tries to remain serious but the corners of his mouth are tugging up
sneaky
desperation is pretty much flooding your body
you wld say f*ck it but you can’t
“I’ll owe you a favour!” you blurt out thoughtlessly.
*crickets chirping*
hope is slowly beginning to fade and your brain is coming up with extension excuses
just crumbs,,,anything
Orbits gg thru with the drought
when he goes
“okay”
JESUS THANK YOU
he beckons for you to follow him
oh?😏😉
“I know a better work environment than here.”
oh.
“What’s your name? I’m y/n, it’s my third year.”
“Woah, third year? my name’s ong seongwoo. I just got here.”
huh, freshman
seongwoo doesn’t say much after
he leads you to a common study area in the enormous fraternity house
you turn away as he sets up the laptop and everything bc privacy!!!
but the number of brain cells you have left won’t allow you to remember his login details anyway
“thanks,” you murmur bashfully
well, this is an expected and rather awkward situation
seongwoo plants himself in the chair a few seats away from yours
he pulls out study materials from his backpack
??? hello? sis, u shld be enjoying the party downstairs ???
you try to shift your fullest attention on your project
but!! his presence alone is so loud prominent, it’s giving you a hard time keeping your eyes off😔🤧
anyway u manage to suck it up and finish paper and submit it just in time!
a miracle
maybe he is your angel ;)
you turn to face him and,,,seongwoo has fallen asleep!! on his books!!
his hair is slightly tousled and his glasses rest askew on his face
papers flap in his face but he’s too gone to care
the poor child is tired
💓💖💕soft hours💕💖💓: open
gently, you tap his shoulder
“seongwoo? hey, um, your laptop,”
he only stirs the 2nd time you call him
Cute
groggily, he covers his face and speaks into his hands
he mumbles something about ‘dealing with it later’
you figure it would be best if you left him alone to nap
suddenly, seongwoo grabs your arm
at least, he reaches for it
“I need your number to claim that favour.”
my number ????
for half a second, your heart does pitter patters
he’s only being objective though...
and it was you who suggested it in the first place
sighing, you punch your number into his phone
“okay, but use it wisely and...try not to...call or text so much...”
that sounds rlly mean >:(
“yeah i’ll keep that in mind.”
there’s an underlying layer of...cheekiness? in seongwoo’s tone
your brain jumps to the first conclusion it can think of
“I don’t date younger guys, Seongwoo,”
rEGRET FILLS YOUR ENTIRE BEING IMMEDIATELY AFTER
now, Seongwoo looks up and beams broadly
“Bold of you to assume I’m interested,” he taunts playfully
red sinks into your face and you defend yourself in splutters
“I’m not interested in general! I’m prioritising my studies and everything else! It was just to make sure you know where we stand-“
futile, really
“relax,” he replies. “Just saying, I could change your mind.”
Cocky
but true lol
an amused scoff leave your lips and your arms go akimbo
“I’d like to see you try, freshman.”
~
*back to the present*
You: really, Seongwoo. I don’t see why you can’t drop by the printing station yourself
Seongwoo: you are seated RIGHT NEXT to it. Just fold the papers into aeroplanes and fly them over
You: a 15-page research paper ?? That clearly says ‘do not bend’
Seongwoo: ignore it. Throw it over
you never predicted this was where life would take you
here you were, sat in the library, the table by the printing room
and Seongwoo was seated a few tables away, texting you to collect his freshly printed document
just because
You: Oh my god shut up you’ll get points deducted if your paper is the least bit crumpled
You: i’ll just bring it over
so,,,you did
you brought seongwoo’s papers over to his table
he had been watching from afar, lips pulled into a dumb smile
“thank you, senior.”
boy had the audacity to say that in front of your salad
just to tease him, you reply:
“yeah, senior, just how I like my future boyfriend.”
with that remark, the smile slips off seongwoo’s face and his jaw clenches
but he tries to play it off all cool😎🤧
you shoot the sweetest smile you can muster before skipping back to your table
*beep beep*
I nearly put vibrate -
Seongwoo: that doesn’t count as using my favour card!
your head shakes, but your mouth smiles
it was no secret that seongwoo had a small! crush on you
even if it was, everyone knew
his whole frat and most of his seniors
your friends and roommates
the whole bloody campus
this relationship started out with seongwoo following you on ig
then occasionally dropping a text and wishing you well
he also hyped up all your pics
and said hi whenever you bumped into each other
it escalated to meeting up for brunch or a movie
just...as friends, casually
but you enjoyed his company and goofing around much more than some blind dates
now, texting him was a regular
going out was common
and you haven’t even counted the number of times you guys met at social events
sometimes, he made you feel so✨ special, precious, wanted by doing the smallest things
like a tea on your table
or going the extra mile to cheer you up
most of the time at the expense of his handsome face
he was always,,,there
you did find out about his feelings, though he never addressed them fully
it was fun!! to press his buttons as a friend
“yeah idk abt dating someone younger. Wbu?”
“Hmm. Senior year makes everyone 10x hotter.”
thOSE WERE JOKES
BANTER, PEOPLE, BANTER
but...you weren’t certain if that would turn into something more
you know, you hadn’t given dating someone younger a thought
it never crossed your mind
maybe it was a subconscious deal breaker
you were always quick to bring age into making deals
old broken deals could be made new
the concept was incredibly foreign
my boyfriend? younger?
Personally, you could never see that happen
b-but seongwoo made you sO DAMN HAPPY ALL THE TIME
there was sunshine in his smiles
and starlight in his eyes
ᵕ꒳ᵕ
uGh fEELINGS
but is this attraction?
Eventually, after many sleepless nights, up thinking about this, you made up your mind
If he made a move first,
bc ur scared
you would be hella open to dating him
f*ck that ‘older people only’ rule
(⁄˘⁄ ⁄ ω⁄ ⁄ ˘⁄)♡
[3.06am] seongwoo leaves a voicemail. He says, “hey, will you go on a date with me? I like you.”
[3.14am] seongwoo leaves another voicemail. “I’ll use my favour card if I have to. Just give me a chance.”
anD HOLY F*CK YOU DON’T knOW HOW TO ACT AFTER HEARING THOSE
RIGHT WHEN YOU WAKE UP
yOur heaRT IS FLUTTERING AND YOU CAN FEEL THE BLUSH COMING
UGH SWEETHEART YOU GOT IT BAD
so u jump on this bandwagon and call him asap
it goes straight to voicemail but you don’t leave one
hehe
you know,,,to build suspense
all day long, that’s all you can think about
SeoNGWOO LIKES ME?
~
[8.17am] seongwoo wakes up to a silent voicemail from you
he doesn’t know what to think of it
he dials your number with shaking hands and before you can utter a word, he rushes, “meet me at xxx cafe at 11am”
then hangs up
Tumblr: 101 cafe date outfit ideas
Seongwoo arrives early and orders a drink while waiting
he also picks out a window booth to sit at
his nerves could eat him alive if they teamed up
what would you say to him?
how badly did you react to his 3am confession
getting mildly intoxicated on Daniel’s stash was a horrible idea
he spilt all his secret uwus
the bell chimes
and all his attention is focused on you
your eyes land on him
a smile graces your face as you walk over
“I like you too.”
“Damn, you better not be messing with me right now,” seongwoo nervously chuckles. “I know I sent you th-“
“Oh my god! I like you!”
For a moment, his smart mouth runs dry, surprised
“Oh wow, what happened to your older guys only rule?”
You smack his chest in mock annoyance
“Rules are made to be broken! Let’s not talk about that.” You turn various shades of red
Grinning like the Chesire cat, Seongwoo teases, “And that’s the beauty of it.”

American Horror Story is starting THIS WEEK! And it’s the Murder House/Coven Crossover. I’m more excited than I should be - but I’ve been gathering nostalgic fanfiction recs to share with everyone and came up with nearly 100 fic recs… in case you have nothing to do until Wednesday.
The absolutely lovely @lgbt-representation-is-beautiful made me this wonderful gif of one of my favourite scenes in Season 1. Thank you, Aries. You rock.
To start - my most favourite is Sucker Love by @tjoek-blog (7/?) which is probably forever a WIP - but it’s PERFECT and delicious and if you haven’t read it you have to.
Okay so now I have to talk about my lunchtable girls. They are quite literally some of the most talented writers in any fandom anywhere. Gorgeous human beings whom I love and pretty much everything they write is amazing and worth reading. I’m going to give you a short list of fics written by each of them - pretty much fics that I would call “Required Reading” if you are an AHS fan.
Firstly - let’s talk Lola. @bleuwrites wrote I Think You Should Know I’m Damaged (12/12 - M) which was the fic that started our friendship. She wrote Lemonworld (4/4 - M) - a canon fic where Violate ends up essentially parents to a little girl. Beat The Devil’s Tattoo (9/9 - M) which featured a grown-up Violet who comes back to the house. All I Want Is Everything (1/1 - M) - featuring Tate and a grand gesture. Rara Avis (1/1 - M) - an AU that was set before Tate shot up the school. The Ghost who Walks (7/7 - M) and Policy of Truth (1/1 - M) - both of which are amazing. And then of course Waiting Here (1/1 - M) which messed me up in the best way possible and to this day might be the saddest AHS fic I’ve ever read. Lola is a goddess. You should read her work.
My PaigeyWagey. @feelavalanche or ScarlettWoman710 (as she is also known as) is and always will be a beautiful mermaid of awesomeness. She nearly killed me with The House always Wins (1/1 - M) and Serve the Servants (1/1 - M). I think my forever favourite by her is I Will Follow You Into the Dark (1/1 - M) - and I still think of it often. Paige is also SO freaking good with post-canon fics like All We Are is All We Are (1/1 - M) and Miss The Misery (1/1 - M) and Drain Me (1/1 - MM) and the ever so dark Milk It (1/1 - M). She’s written award winning fics like Tatemae, Honne (1/1 - M) and Dive in Me (1/1 - M) - which has some of the best writing in the whole fandom - I was literally overly emotional. And of course we’d never forget the fic she co-wrote with Linds. The Curve of Her Lips (12/12 - M)
Speaking of Linds. Oh my dear @ohhyellowbird - whom I love. Talented and sharp and utterly amazing. She wrote Tabula Rasa (1/1 - M) and Something To Talk About (1/1 - M) and Monster (1/1 - M) and Color Theory (1/1 - M) and Blue Lips (1/1 - M) and my most fave Make War (1/1 - M) which was gorgeous.
And of course Gracie. @whatwouldflorencedo or GrayGlube. Gracie is gonna be famous one day. She is the angst queen. Dark and amazing. Moral Dust (1/1 - M) was my first GG fic - but all of them that followed were equally as amazing. The Antique Children Series (2 fics), The Grieving Process Series (2 AMAZING fics), Druxy (1/1 - M), Ophistographs (2/2 - M), Don’t Look Back You’re Not Going That Way (1/1 - M), Limerence (2/2 - M), Jungianism (1/1 - M), and Eleven, twelve, thirteen (1/1 - T) and of course Toska (1/1 - M). Seriously… every thing this woman writes is gold. She is going to buy and sell all of us someday. Read it all. This is just a handful of her amazing work.
And lastly dear Stella. Shootingstella wrote a TON of super fun stories but decided to leave the fandom and remove most of her work. Thankfully, I saved it all so I can read it any time I want. BUT you unlucky people can only read what she submitted for the Fic Exchanges - so you should read them just to get a taste of how talented and lovely she was. My most favourite was You Have Been Weighed (1/1 - M) but she also wrote Neptune Oyster (1/1 - M) and The Burning Man (2/2 - M). You are truly missing out on Wake and Copy Cat and Hoarders and Latex I Love Yous. It was a really wonderful time to be a fangirl.
And of course there are other stories by other amazing authors that you may have forgotten about - but you should take the opportunity to read them and enjoy them before the new season starts.
Oh, How It Burns by applythepressure (16/16 - M) Summary: Oh, how it burns. Oh, how he burns her.
Limp by pheromones (5/5 - M) Summary: “Romeo couldn’t live without his Juliet, Sid couldn’t live without his Nancy, and Tate Langdon certainly couldn’t live without his Violet Harmon.”
Mine Is Forever by aaronlisa (1/1 - M) Summary: Tate learns the hard way that promises made to ghosts and houses don’t really amount to much in the end.
About a Girl by paceyourself (10/?) Summary: Every heart has a pain. Fools hide it in their eyes while the brilliant hide it in their smile and someday you’ll realize the damage that you’ve caused. Violet/Tate, AU, 1993.
Spirit Desire by GinHermi (1/1 - M) Summary: She wants him, no questions asked. He was her desire, and the house seemed to agree. She watched him and drove him mad. But are her intentions out of pure need or are they of something outside of herself? Violet haunts Tate and he haunts her right back.
As The World Falls Down by applythepressure (3/3 - M) Summary: Are you still sad, Violet, after all this time?
Lick the Flame by Gwen Brunye (1/1 - M) Summary: Violet’s fantasy involves a blonde boy in shiny black boots…
The Darkness Claims by A Dirty Little Secret (1/1 - M) Summary: Sitting at the dining room table with her chin in her hand, Violet laments everything her mother has become. She contemplates briefly the idea of being alone once again, and the summons slips from her lips before she has a chance to reconsider.
Truth or Dare by Cheers My Dears (9/9 - M) Summary: Reading his patient file left Violet feeling confused and a little scared. Maybe playing a game will help her sort through her feelings
i think i made you up inside my head by howlsatthemoon (3/3 - M) Summary: This house is filled to the brim with ghosts, but you are the only monster. / AU. If Tate was alive and Violet was dead. Set in 2011. Three-shot.

Tate’s Conscience by TheDevotchka (17/17 - M) Summary: Tate hates high school. He hates his girlfriend, fake friends and his ‘promising track career’. It’s not what he wants. He wants her… the pretty, peculiar new girl. Only problem is? She can’t stand him and he can’t seem to change her mind.
We’ll find strength in pain by ChrysX (17/17 - M) Summary: 1963. Dr. Ben Harmon, after the loss of his wife, Vivien, decides to take a psychiatrist’s position in Briar Cliff. He and his daughter Violet arrive at the Asylum with the hope of a new beginning.
An Illustrated Book About Birds by Nokomis (1/1 - T) Summary: Violet adjusts to the house while coming to terms with her new knowledge about Tate. Post-1x06.
Never Let Me Go by GinHermi (11/11 - M) Summary: 1960’s AU. Choosing between duty and love is never easy. She had a choice to make no matter the scandal that would befall her. If it came between separating from him forever and breaking her duty, she would choose wisely. Heart or mind?
Coming Dead Last by Rune-Spirit (1/1 - M) Summary: When the house moves Travis to set his sights on cozying up with Violet, Tate doesn’t take too kindly to it and has to rescue her from his overzealous advances.

The Finish Line by howlsatthemoon (1/1 - M) Summary: She catches him in the backyard, dozing off in the gazebo, the sunlight reflecting off his golden hair and the hint of a smile on the pink of his lips. A worn copy of a collection of Byron’s poems and plays lies forgotten across his lap, the page folded where he’d been before he drifted off. This is when she likes him best. / Moments with Violet and Tate that we missed.
And then of course there was the @ahs-exchange. I ran a fic exchange for four rounds and some of the best fic in the fandom (some mentioned above and some not mentioned) were shared there. Here are the links to the Master Lists:
Round 1 - Round 2 - Round 3 - Round 4
SOoooo the new season is upon us. I hope you get through all these stories and celebrate with me! YAY for AHS Apocalypse.
