vera you have a real talent <3 your works might be small (at least for now) but they are so filling and satisfying! usually I sit and think oh the author should write a sequel. I just feel that there is a continuation here. and you have me sitting and smiling like a fool after meeting your puentalay. you have an ideal vision of their relationship with which I agree one hundred percent. so please know that i really enjoyed your work, thank you sooo much for writing it and sharing it with us <3 I GET YOU (i don't comment on a lot of things because i feel embarrassed) SO PLEASE KNOW THAT YOU DID A REALLY GOOD JOB AND I'M SO PROUD OF YOU

[demonmarker]

Beautiful with you Ch.3

So I'm going to have to post this in two parts cause apparently there's a character limit for each post so I'll link the second part under the fic. Thank you everyone for the likes and reblogs I love how much you guys are liking this story. Hope you enjoy

Trigger warnings: Mention of death, scars and lots of smut

Ch.1 Ch.2

You let out an exhausted sigh as you open the door for Nina, Regina and tail-wagging Alexander. Nina walks in, holding gently onto Alexander’s collar; she wasn’t too much taller than him so when she was down or exhausted he would aid her in just getting to her destination. You hold out your arm gesturing for Regina to go first, “Such a gentleman,” smiling that smile that only Regina George can. “With what you date, it’s not hard”….And the smile was gone from her face and now on yours as she glared at you. Your home was just that, a home, it wasn’t fancy or that big but you put pride in making it a safe, loving environment for Nina to grow up in. While most of the students at North Shore had their TikTok feeds show them the latest music and popular trends, yours was full of storage DIY tips and tricks, mum hacks for keeping the little ones happy, and the occasional sketchbook tour from artists with styles you like. “Well this is… cosy” Regina commented standing in the middle of the lounge room which opened up into the kitchen. You hook Nina’s bag up on the back of the front door, looking Regina’s way “Expecting a mansion like your own?” you walk past her to Nina. You could practically feel the mocking face she was making behind your back as you were bending down to Nina, and Nina’s precious giggles while looking behind you confirmed it, you rolled your eyes but kept a closed smile on your face so Nina knew you guys were joking… kind of. “How about you go put on your comfy clothes Princess and I’ll make you a snack?” As an answer Nina takes off running, one arm up in the air like a flying superhero while just announcing “FOOD!” in what you could only call her food goblin voice. “And let Alexander outside for a potty break please,” from down the hall you hear “Urgh fine,” in a tone like you were asking the world of her. You stand back up to your full height and give Regina a dirty look, “She’s known you for barely more than an hour and I’m already getting attitude.” Regina scrunched up her nose with a proud smile, “We have a bond.” Trying to rub it in your face. All you could do was shake your head and start making snacks.

Three episodes of Bluey and a PB&J later and little Nina was sound asleep on Regina’s lap. Regina motioned to the TV with an open palm, while you gathered the small unconscious body into your arms, “This show is just downright amazing! Bingo is so cute she reminds me so much of me” spoken proudly by the blond. You scoff, “Oh please, you are Muffin through-and-through. Spoilt and cranky.” You acted like you didn’t take notice of Regina’s dropped jaw, but inside you were pissing yourself laughing. You tuck a still comatose Nina into her bed and ever so gently brush the hair from her closed eyes, leaning down to lightly kiss her forehead, Alexander splayed out down at the end of the little one’s bed like he does every day and night. You pat his head which he nuzzles into “Come get me when she wakes up, okay Bud?” Turning to leave you see Regina leaning against the doorframe witnessing the whole thing, she didn’t say anything as she moved out of the way as you slowly close Nina’s door, leaving it slightly ajar. You both walk back out into the kitchen in silence, you do as to not wake Nina, Regina however because of the question she wanted to ask. You start tidying up the small mess left from the snack eating when Regina spoke up, “Hey, can I ask you something?”

You knew what it was going to be. Letting out a large sigh you signal Regina to follow you. In for a penny, in for pound they say, and Regina was in for a heavy load. You lead her into your room and close the door behind you, there wasn’t a large chance of Nina waking but you can’t take any risks with this, she’s been through enough. You motion for Regina to take a seat on your Queen-sized bed, which she does and you sit next to her, taking and releasing one last large breath you let Regina in on everything. “We don’t have parents. Well at least not anymore.” You reach under the bed and pull out a large cardboard box and hand it to Regina who slowly opens it. She pulls out a yellowed newspaper dated back over three years ago, the main story, ‘Drunk driver crashes into family of 4 - kills 2 critically injured 1’, Regina’s hand covers her mouth in devastation while looking over the large picture of what was your family’s car turned into a scrap heap, crumpled into half its normal size. “I can’t remember the accident, I can’t remember the year leading up to it either.” Regina turns over the page and whimpers and her eyes land on a picture of a younger you with a purposefully blurred-out large piece of shrapnel sticking out of your right rib, little Nina can be seen screaming with a bloodied up head. Regina’s eyes scrunched as she saw the position you were pinned in, her head turning this way and that, trying to make sense of it, her face going pale, expression dropping as it clicked. “You shielded Nina.” She whispered looking at you, but you couldn’t do the same as the tears started falling silently from your eyes, you stare up at the ceiling trying to blink them away.

“I-.” your voice gets caught in your throat “I get flashes of the lights coming towards my side of the car, I still can hear my Mum’s scream before the impact but that’s it. That’s all I can remember.” You let out a sob you were trying so hard to hold back “I can’t remember being told I had a little sister for the first time, it’s just gone.” Regina sets aside the newspaper and gets down on her knees in front of you “May I?” her eyes go to the affected rib. With a sniffle, you nod silently, not able to meet her eyes. She reaches for the hem of your black long sleeve and slowly pushes it up, you help her by just taking the whole shirt off in the end. Her eyes went wide with shock as she sees the scarred flesh take up half of your toned stomach and stretch all the way round to the other side of your back. Without thinking Regina leans in, kissing all around the old wound, a soft moan leaving your lips as your hand instinctively tangles into her long blond hair, whispering her name. When she hears her name on your lips she lifted her head from your midsection to push hers against yours, her lips so soft against your own you subconsciously hoped that you’d be able to spend the rest of your life kissing these lips. The kissing was heating up and you found yourself reaching to lift Regina on top of your lap straddling you. You both continue to kiss once more, Regina starting to slowly grind herself on your thighs, reaching up to release your long dark hair from the hairband that held it up, twirling your long strands around her fingers, tugging your head back to expose your neck for her to feast on with her lips, licking from your collar bone all the way up to your jaw line, releasing a moan from your throat Regina pulls back “You know the colour system right?”, It took you a little bit to register what she was talking about since you were out of it from the arousal she stirred up inside you, but you eventually nodded “Of course,” “Good” Without warning you were pushed back onto the bed, Regina moving off you to start unbuttoning your jeans “Colour?”

My Joel Miller fics recs from 2023

I’ve planned to do this since before Christmas, but life caught me up, so that's why I'm here rushing to finishing this before the reveillon party. 2023 was a very tough year for me, in different ways, and this stories were my refuge and my balm during good times and bad times, so this was the way I found to honor all these incredible authors who made my life better this year.

To the authors: you guys are the most amazing and sweet people ever, I know that I'm not active as other readers and I don't reblog your works enough - and I'm sorry for that, I wish I could shower you with the praises you guys deserve.

Hope this will make up for all the comments and reblogs that I haven't give.

And to the readers who find this recs: most of these stories are series and most of them has age gap and are Joel Miller x fem/afab!reader. I won't put warnings from each fic because it would be a too long post, so click the link and read the author's warnings in each before you start to read - I'm afraid to get into fandoms because of people who give shit to authors, so please, don't be this kind of person.

Someday I'll make a part 2 of other stories that caught me up this year.

That all being said, thank you @morning-star-joy @hier--soir @frannyzooey @joelsgreys @fuckyeahdindjarin @the-ginger-hedge-witch @eupheme @bageldaddy @covetyou @theidiotwhowritesthings @atinylittlepain @imtryingmybeskar @ezrasbirdie

A stranger's heart without a home (complete)

Summary: A one night stand that later becomes a secret affair – or masterpiece of literature – all the poets and great writers ran so Doni could walk.

This is my favorite fic of all times, forever! I read and re-read it so much that I can’t even count how many times I’ve had read it, it’s my 100% comfort fic. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope, and the way @morning-star-joy developed here it’s perfection in the most pure way.

It’s Joel on his Jackson era and it’s a perfect character development from both sides, how to people who prefer to deal things on their own learn to rely on someone else.

I also highly recommend But you know the killer doesn't understand, which it’s on-going Joel x fem! Reader also post-Outbreak in Jackson, but it’s different and addicting as ASHWAH.

A Lover’s Pinch (on-going)

Summary: a one night stand (do I have a pattern?) at the bar turns to be so much more when you discover that your fling it’s your professor at university.

The professor x student trope might be cliché for some, and by the very brief summary that I wrote above may sound like Pretty Little Liars, but @hier--soir works with those elements and creates something beyond amazing, it is like contemplate a work of art at a museum, but much better.

I’m very much obsessed with this story, that’s why I reread it with more and more frequency.

Can’t even mention the references in this story – it’s truly enriching, it makes all better, truly.

Plus: the playlist it’s amazing!!!!

Short Days, Long Nights (on-going)

Summary: Remnants of a band travelers, you and Joel find a cabin in the woods - what would be the problem with staying?

I’m crazy about this one, it’s my true love and it had 3 or 4 chapters when I started and now we’re heading to chapter 17, blessed be @frannyzooey for sustaining us with this preciosity for so long.

I'm a sucker for when there's one character (Joel) reluctant for his feelings, and if the story was only about this, I would be perfectly glad too with, too. BUT Kelli it's a genius, an amazing writer, giving me all that I didn't even knew I wanted.

It's fluff, with smut from the highest quality - with some tense moments, wich turns everything more addicting.

A Safe Haven (on-going)

Summary: Joel's quickly drawn to the vet of Jackson - even knowing she's married. Will this affair thrive? Or there's more underneath of the vet's story? (Jesus Christ, I’m so sorry for this lame summary, but I refuse to copy from your masterlist and I’m also rushing to finishing this rec today).

I was bought on the infidelity trope and the drama that comes with it. It would still be a nice story, but @joelsgreys it’s so much fucking talented that she wrote the most beautiful thing ever!

It has tooth roting fluff, drenching panties smut and heartstopping angst! All perfectly written and balanced.

I also love how Ellie it's also a crucial character for the couple's history and I really adore how she's attached to Peach.

Special mention to Fall Into Temptation and Strawberry, that lived rent free in my mind since I've read those.

Seams (on-going)

Summary: Joel pays visit to Jackson's seamstress after a trouble with his too-tight jeans – and it's only heaven from that on, won't say more.

Now I call @fuckyeahdindjarin ✨Queen of the Build Up✨ and that's because the way Cee builds up the sexual tension between characters it's undescribable.

Cee is such an excellent writer, not only in Seams but on other stories too she's gives a rich description of details that makes the reading flow better, it's like knowing you looking at gem stone.

Breakout (complete)

Summary: Boxer!Joel AU when he has to train a fuckboy who happens to date a sweet little thing.

Well I'm a fan from @the-ginger-hedge-witch for a while, she wrote one of the best Javier Peña fics ever (which turned into a book and that's fucking A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!) and other amazing stories, but this one got me hooked so bad.

Clearly I have a pattern because I LOVE when there is an obstacle for the characters to stay together, in this case, a relationship (I already spoiled that her boyfriend sucks, but I don't think it's spoils the story development) and Ren just atests she's a wonderful writer - now book writer, blessed be her 🙏🏻

And the idea of Joel using his fists it's already apealing, am I right?

I also recommend Friendly Fire, that I love just for knowing that in this, Ren envisioned an Aries character for reader - but also the premise of the story is great, too.

In The Woods Somewhere (complete)

Summary: living alone in a cabin at the apocalypse gets less dull when a teenager appears with a handsome injured man.

I've read this since a while, but it marked me. @eupheme created such tenderness between the characters - they know he and Ellie can't stay, which makes the affair even more apealling.

I’ll know It when I see it (on-going)

Summary: Joel as a porn star in its golden era who meets Lucky, a rising star in porn - chemestry goes beyond the cameras.

@bageldaddy deserves all the shout out forever because this here it's golden. They're both are porn stars and I could be hot just for this, but of course there's feelings involved - and the way they struggle to fight against these it's what makes this story even more perfect. Shout out to the one shot Sundown, as well, it’s completely wonderful.

Something wretched about this (complete)

Summary: Joel Miller it's a self appointed pharmacist in the QZ, and fucks you when you don't have how to pay for your father's medicine

Whoring yourself for meds sounds bad? In this story it's hot af! It's filthy, each chapter explores different sexual practices and it's THE. BEST. THING. IN. THE. WORLD!!!

@covetyou it's the most blessed being for writing a perfection like this, seriously. I loved every single chapter of this, loved Joel being an asshole and a slut. I can't tell enough how much joy this story has brought me. And lo it's better than Santa, because she provides christmas gifts for the nice and naughty, with Freeze-thaw (smut with fluff) and Baubles (smut with FILTH) - I can't die before I try the balldo, I didn't even knew this, didn't think that this could be possible - but happily it is, and this one shot it's perfect in every aspect.

Take Care of You (on-going)

Summary: Joel it's a sugar daddy in this AU and appears in your life to make all better 👀 He doesn't charges for the sexual part of the arrangement, but he's irresistible - so what will you do?

The ideia of a sugar daddy it's extremely appealing to me because that's all I wanted, you know? Some rich hot guy telling me I don't need to work and paying everything to me - that's living! Okay jk, but I started reading this when things caught up badly at work, so it was a sweet refuge.

@theidiotwhowritesthings it's the perfect writer! It's the perfect slow burn that makes you thirst for more and more!

Apothecary (complete)

Summary: Summary: Joel falls in love with the "witch" from Jackson and it has its perks and struggles.

I LOVE Practical Magic, it's one of my favorites witch movies so to read something inspired on that it's great -but @atinylittlepain it's such a wonderful, talented, amazing writer - so we were all blessed with this masterpiece.

It has fluff, angst, smut - stupid people being scared about what they don't understand and etc. It's very sweet, Joel also doesn't understands about her, but can't help being drawn. And Ellie it's a natural, their relationship here, how they grow to be a family ... it's utterly sweet. Special mention to Only Lovers Left Alive (another movie that I LOVE),  The Heyloft and the masterpiece Down to The Ankles (it's perfection and it's inspired in Bones and All, other film that I truly love).

Come home (on-going)

Summary: when you've lost everything and everyone, you reach to Jackson - and meets a ruggedly handsome who you can't help being drawn to.

I've read this for a while, as well, but I still think about this story often. It's a slow burn - which I love (in case you haven't noticed from the stories listed above) - and it's so sweet, the blossom of a friendship that turns to more, their relationship with Ellie ... It's been a while since it was uptaded and I hope @imtryingmybeskar it's okay, because this story it's lovely and I really wish to see and ending for them.

Catalyst

I'm gonna just summarize that it's a threesome with Joel and Frankie Morales from Triple Frontier, that's it - if that ain't reason enough for you to read, idk man.

I didn't even knew that I wanted it, that I needed it - until I read it. I find threesomes hot af, but I don't tend to enjoy when it's with characters that I love too deeply - don't ask me why - but in THIS ONE, GOD FUCKING DAAAAAMN!

It has filth, of course, but there's also fluff - which I find inevitable when it's about Frankie. In the chapter Here, especially, @ezrasbirdie builds perfectly of the struggles that I imagine for a threeway relationship, reading it was sad, hot and lovely.

Hope all the links work, 'cause I don't have time to check now 🙃

Sorry if my comments felt weird, if I forgot to mention something, as I've said above, I intend to make a part 2 of recs someday soon (hopefully).

I wish everyone a happy new year 🎆🥂🎇

Sue was looking for some things in the boxes they had in the attic, she smiled when she found the old kites that she and Johnny used to fly when they were kids or just wanted to get out of trouble.

She couldn't remember the last time they had flown them, plus the situation that all the superheroes were going through right now was too stressful, so maybe it was time for them to make some space for themselves and get back to the activity they enjoyed so much.

He didn't tell Johnny where they were going, he simply asked him to come along. The confusion was evident on his brother's face when they came to a large open field.

“What are we doing here? “Johnny questioned.

“We're going to have a beautiful brotherly moment, just like when we were little. "

“Don't even think I'll let you turn me into your makeup test model again, you've never been good at that," Johnny warned.

All that makeup always looked bad and Johnny looked awful, sometimes it was even too much work to remove all that makeup.

“No, we'll just do something quieter," she replied, pulling out the kites.

“We're too old for that, aren't we? “Johnny's eyebrow rose.

“And so, you're the life of the party? Go fly your kite," Sue ordered.

A few minutes later they were both laughing as they flew the kites, just like in the old days.

[chrisemrysfics]

Hello~!

A little post to mention that I will make adjustments to the blog sooner or later, as I decided to change what I do when I have fic ideas, I will make a proper note to share on my WIP as well as here, but long story short I realized that the whole "multi chaptered story that is cohesive/coherent" format (aka the way my fics on AO3) are takes a lot of effort that I just don't have the space to do regularly anymore, and I want to try working with just... babbling about ideas on this blog instead, and only share on AO3 if I have completed stories or series of short stories that relate to each other in term of background context.

I technically did mean to do this on this blog before, but because I still "pushed" myself to try and write "proper stories", I ended up never having the energy to be active on this blog (pretty sure now that all I did is make my brain unwilling to touch fics ideas ^^"). So now I'm hoping to be much more relaxed, and vibe on this blog sharing my ideas even if they never end up being "proper stories".

I am already testing this method with the ideas that have been most present in my head for a while, the blog is technically open and active but also I'm still working on the pages, you can find it here!

That blog is all about a crossover but each individual fandom/protagonist character have their own personal story, so in theory you can also find lots of stuff for the fandom you know even if you're not interested in the rest!

The crossover protagonists are: Peter Parker, Allen Walker, Link (BotW/TotK), Wei Wuxian, Ireth (Elf OC for DAI). There's also canon love interest(s) for each character, there's a lot that's not about the ships, but they are still present so that's either greater interest or squicks out, either way is totally fine~!

These ships are: Starker, Neallen and Poker Pair, Wild/Twilight and Wild/Gan(ondorf from TotK), Wangxian, Ireth/Cullen and Ireth/Dorian (with occasioanl mention/au where Ireth/Bull is also a thing).

The crossover blog, and the crossover ideas, is very fluid as I didn't want to "set in stone" details when it felt more fun to consider the various possible variations of the base ideas. Which, you know, is a bit hard to do with "proper stories" and why it made my inspiration lower a lot, because I love to just... vibe with ideas. Like, for a while I did enjoy figuring out how to make my ideas into "proper stories", but I guess my writing style changed? And now I enjoy a lot more "non traditional" storytelling.

So yeah, expect adjustments on this blog, a note about what I'm changing here and on my AO3 WIPs (which will also be marked "completed" because I now consider them finished since they all have a bonus that detailed my ideas, except Meet me Halfway (didn't want to spoil too much when I made the first bonus but now I need to make second bonus that does spoil XD), and hopefully a bit more activity here where I share about my existing fics and new ideas, and don't forget to check out the crossover blog as I'll be more active there!

(I'll likely try to reblog from the crossover blog, but I want to keep this blog for my actual existing fics and other ideas external to the crossover, so yeah if you're curious about the crossover itself or the individual/fandom-specific stories, check out the crossover blog!).

And as always: thank you for your patience and your interest <3

PS: feel free to drop into my inbox here and/or the crossover blog for any questions, comments, or messages you might want to leave! I'm still very much around and don't mind it all at ^w^

[cloudninetonine]

Hii! I'm sorry if you meant your inbox is closed in general and not only for requests, but I really need to tell you this after binging a player's aid. Feel free to throw some gasoline on this and burn it! (also sorry it got a lot longer than I thought)

Man I,,, I don't even know how to begin. Like you're one of the first blogs in my Tumblr life that I actively checked for updates back in the days of Follow the Light. I remember writing a super cheesy ask where I sang praises to your works and I was so scared of interaction for no reason at all 😭

Yesterday I stumbled across the link (must- refrain- pun not intended) to that fic and opened out of curiosity,,, I don't really know the Zelda universe, I played BotW and I'm now waiting for TotK, but I said "hell yanno what, I want to read some of their stuff again" and… fella… I wasn't ready, your writing is absolutely insane, even more than I remembered. From the style, to the pacing, to the story and the characterisation- everything. It makes me feel so satisfied, like when you eat your favourite food yeah?

And now I want to watch the gameplays of every game (even tho I have no idea of how i should start) cus the brainrot is too damn real :')

Again I gotta say your style is immaculate and I'm trying to absorbe as many details as possible, maybe I'll stop having troubles with the pacing of my own stories lmao- But anyways, big ggs and kudos to you, you deserve them all <3

No but actually I wanted to ask if I could spam like and reblog the chapters. I didn't want to flood your activity thingy without asking you first. In case you don't want me to I'll just reblog one every two hours or something, idk whatever works better for you. Have a nice day/night :')

HI SORRY I MEANT FOR REQUESTS BUT NOT FOR GENERAL ASKS!

ALSO HI!

ANOTHER ALSO THANK YOU SO MUCH!

It means so much at the fact that you started reading just because you wanted to see my work again :') when I tell you that actually makes me a little tearful (positive of course!) and all the way back from Follow the Light (Missed writing that in all honesty)

And Player's Aid it's actually based on an au comic called "Linked Universe"! So there's a starting point if you haven't already! Just type the name into Tumblr and the first blog should be it! I didn't even start looking at gameplay until later on!

Also, I know this is late but no need to ask! I don't mind spam likes/reblogs- just reminds me people like my work :)))

#cyn draws -> my art. I might also use #my art

#cyn talks / cyn speaks -> not much of a distinction since I often tag both. But cyn talks is for chatting, and cyn speaks is for original posts.

#cyn answers -> answering asks

Usually first name, last name for characters

#fic recs -> fic recs! Feel free to also browse my ao3 bookmarks or links on my fanfiction.net profile

#transmigrator kaito au -> my own au! I post under this tag (on both accounts, so click 'see all of tumblr'). Feel free to check out the link below and to follow the tag <3

This seems pretty popular so I'll put this here too. If I find another fic, I'll update it in this post. Happy reading~

Kaito pov/Kaito centric fanfic recommendations list:

Planned future projects:

Start writing fanfics hahaha. First I gotta get over my self esteem and start writing planssss. I do admire everyone who writes, but I really don't want to run out of steam halfway through projects. And if I'm gonna write, I wanna get into the habit of planning! It also allows for tiny details to be hinted in later, super satisfying >v<

Rn I'm super busy with uni so aaaa they might take a while

~

WIP Ideas in my brain, may or may not be actually posted. But definitely feel free to ask me questions about them!

Please send asks, I'm actually begging like please

- Kirby oc + anime au! (i have a series of monstrous documents with meticulous detail, it's getting ridiculous at this point adfghj. But I do need to watch the anime first). I have somehow ended up making an entire au around an oc haha. I'm taking some inspiration from other fandoms and fanworks.

- Dcmk oc/self inserts/transmigration aus (Shinichi/Conan, Kaito, detective boys, maybe some others. We need more of these in this fandom)

- Kaito transmigration au (Kaishin, platonic or romantic not decided yet)

https://vampirecatsw.tumblr.com/tagged/transmigrator%20kaito%20au

Inspired by 'Entirely Out of Spite' by Bgtea, a Genshin fanfic. Would highly recommend! https://archiveofourown.org/works/30349320/chapters/74816049 And also "Scum Villain Self-Saving System" too, since EOoS is inspired by it in turn. I'm crying since writing is just Not Happening XDDD The funniest thing about this au is Kaito being extra giddy to meet Shin/Cone and being a fanboy in general

Kaitou / phantom thief oc Look he just slaps, idk how to explain XD

~

Ok, bye! Hope everyone is doing well! I'm going back to work now because uni is using me like its ragdoll in those flash games lol

Rhett the Etsy Baker

I loved that more so much of them guessing Etsy stores. This is dedicated to the lovely @too-old-for-this-mix

R- And every single time you show me something, I want to do it.

L-Do not give this man his own Etsy store.

R- The cookies that I can make and put in little baggies and hand out to people.

L- I kind of could.

R- I’d do a little stack of them, I’d tie them up with a little bow.

It started innocently enough. Another layer to Rhett, Link observed about his husband. Just a cute little More conversation. If he only knew what was unleashed. About a week later, Link was surprised.

“I’m home.” Link said as he stepped inside their home. The smell of baked goods filled the air. He headed into the kitchen to find Rhett amidst cookie batter, various bags from the craft store spewing out little bags and ribbon. There were also a few baskets around and Rhett’s laptop opened to Etsy on the dining room table. A timer dinged as Rhett pulled a new batch of cookies from the oven to cool.

“Hey there, how was your appointment?” Rhett asked as he went to curl some ribbon.

“Good. I see you’ve been busy.” Link laughed as he tried to swipe a fresh cookie. It was warm and delicious. One could even say it was made with love.

“I just couldn’t get that idea out of my head, you know.” Rhett replied as he put down the ribbon and started filling a dozen or so bags with cookies. Link observed his little assembly line of packaging the cookies finding it endearing.

“When did you even set up your store?”

“The night after we shot that more. I pulled up some recipes as well. It was pretty easy.”

“Seems like it really took off by the looks of things.”

“Yes, it did. Good thing we’re on break for a bit.” Link laughed at this stealing another cookie.

“Hey! I need those!” Rhett teased as he finished the last of the bows he tied on. “Tada! What do you think?”

Link looked at the finished product and couldn’t be happier. He walks up to his husband planting the biggest kiss he can muster.

“Absolutely beautiful!”

[forgotten-daydreamer]

i was going to comment on one of your recent fics (which i kinda liked) until i saw the abrasive author's note berating people for bookmarking without commenting. you don't know why people bookmark things - for many people, it's equivalent to a recs list. just like fic readers aren't entitled to receive fics, fic authors aren't entitled to receive feedback. i'm saying this as both a fic writer and a reader (both long-term, so i have plenty of experience dealing with a lack of feedback). there are many many reasons why readers choose to leave comments (or not), and as a writer you'll be much more content if you can make peace with the fact that there's very little you can do to change that, and instead encourage the commenters that you do get. it sucks, but it is what it is. desperate and abusive author's notes, however, do turn people off. ps: i asked if you read others' fics because i find it hard to believe that you yourself leave a comment on every single fic you read and fanart you reblog. i'd be happy to be proven wrong, but my point still stands - i understand the desire for more comments, but you're going about it the wrong way.

I love when people completely miss the point <3

So, I'm not writing all of this again so go give it a read and come back later. I specified multiple times that ofc saving fics for later without commenting is fine (wouldn't make sense to comment before reading it). And yes, I do comment on every fic I read, multiple times too (I can't guarantee for fics I bookmarked ages ago, but I'm 99.9% sure I always left at least one comment). I don't do it with fanarts because I reblog them compulsively, what I do instead is leave anon messages in the artists' inbox. Although I also leave comments sometimes!

"Abusive" is a strong term, I'm just getting creative because you people are exhausting, as simple as that. As I said in the post I linked (again, read it, thanks) you're all so used to tiktok and such that you think it's okay if people who give you stuff you like for free never get to know your opinion. Wrong. We're humans. We deserve to know what you think. It's the bare minimum.

I'm tired of all that "OMG that fic broke me, I wish I had someome to talk about it with" because we authors are right fucking there.

We are entitled to receive feedback. I've been posting fics for nine fucking years - on an Italian website first, then on AO3 with a different acc that I then deleted, and then with my current one - and reading them for just as long. So excuse me for wanting feedback, excuse me for noticing how the readers' attitute towards giving feedback has shifted now that you're all on tiktok/insta 24/7 constantly bombarded with content that only takes you 10 secs to consume and makes you think "Yeah okay, I can't leave a comment on each and every thing I consume, it'd take longer to leave the comment than to consume the content." (and it's true, like, I know it is)

And trust me, this "if you read without bookmarking you're a jerk" thing is new, check my other fics (I posted over 100 works, but as you can see I only have 40-something now because I delete them compulsively, sorry, orphaning fics isn't for me) and even if you go check the oldest ones (I think the fist fics I posted with my current ao3 acc are from late 2019?) I never said anything. But I'm tired and annoyed. I talked to multiple people here who told me that they'd never thought about this thing until I (and others) shared our honest opinion on it, so, I guess you're kinds on your own in this holy crusade of yours against common decency. Feel free to never read my works again, I'll live.

And I'm not saying you're just finding excuses, but huh, I just checked and the first note regarding this issue is on day 5 (/10 I've written so far) and that one just says "be decent" before I escalated so huh. Yeah. Holy crusade against common decency.

Be fucking for real. Should I put a tw for strong language next time? Is "piece of caca" upsetting? "Meanie"? The only mean one is "cunt" actually. Like I'd be offended too. But the rest? Be for real.

FYI these are all the instances - I didn't add anything to the notes of the other works because I was running out of space. And again, sorry you totally missed the point. Sorry my notes shocked you to the point that you couldn't even comment :o

Peace.

@mailrebel The fact that you tagged this with #gatekeeper ahkgkslewakjfh I'm honored. So is he. 📯 I have something very long to say so I'm putting it under the cut. Re: 👀 That's so cool! Tbh I couldn't remember if we met on Discord or AO3 first but yes I think it was AO3. You leaving a comment was definitely the first time we spoke! Re: ✨ I'm not surprised :D Re: 🥰 Aww, thank you. That means a lot to me because I know "Links" who have alighted my darkness time and time again. To be Link for someone else is a true honor. Re: 🤔 <3 😂 ✨📯✨ Re: 💞 So close!!! This is a red herring on my part, though. 😆 Not intentional. I know it looks like TP Zelink is my favorite because I AM SO INCREDIBLY PASSIONATE ABOUT SAYING THEY ARE CANON (coughcough. they are.). Moreover, the very theme and core of Twilight Princess is so dear to me that it is easy to capture TP Zelink, and their relationship is quick and fun to explore in oneshots. But, despite that evidence, my favorite Zelink is actually OoT <3 Don't get me wrong, TP Zelink is so, so special to me. But ironically they're third on my favorites list 😂 OoT is not just my favorite Zelink, OoT Zelink is my favorite ship of all time. My OTP. If I start talking about why, I'll never stop, of course. But because they're my favorite Zelink, that's why I haven't posted very many fics about them; I'm plantsing through "megafics" for them. Cough.Cough.DekuTreeLink. ;) My second favorite Zelink, because I know you're wondering, is ALttP. I don't make much for them but they're dear to me. For now, I enjoy reading what other people write about them. Re: ⚔️ That is correct. I believe it's the best Zelda game ever made. The fact that it is connected to OoT only makes it better and better. Fun items, cool dungeons, a story that stabs you, cinematic and memorable cutscenes, enough open world to feel free but enough plot structure to feel steady, epic boss fights, deeeeeep lore that supports the rest of canon, I can go on.... Re: 🙂 Thank you, friend. ~ No matter what happens in my day, it's always made a little more wonderful by chatting with you. I hope you have a good day too. Thanks for starting this ask game :)

~ Mail, you probably won't believe me, but to be frank right back, I am not that type of person. 😂 I was considering, "What led to that conclusion?" and then I thought about our interactions and I laughed so hard at myself.

Let me tell you why you have that rare perspective of me: you are one of the Readers I Have Always Been Waiting For. I remember you commenting on the first fic, because I remember thinking your icon was fun, lol. That first fic was probably Alighting the Darkness, wasn't it. That was great. I love replying to comments because a) it's half the fun of posting a story and b) I hope my replies (especially the silly ones) will boost people's confidence and spur them to continue conversation across the fandom. I happily replied to your comment on that TP fic and went about my day. But then. Later in my inbox, I saw your name again, on ANOTHER TP fic. So of course I was excited; someone liked my writing enough to dive into more of my writing! Of course I'm going to respond even more enthusiastically! But Mail, you didn't just stop there, you went to my OoT fics NEXT (which told me you had very good taste, lol, to go from TP to OoT), and THEN you swung over to my Fire Emblem fics, AND THEN you ran over to my Death Note fics, and brother every time you left a comment, you got to receive more and more and more of ✨ Sparrow's shinies ✨ because I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR FOREVER! I dabble in multifandom endeavors so I see a lot of varying names interact with my fics. I'm used to the "fandom divide" determining who reads and who comments on / reblogs which of my fics (and art too). It's normal, of course; I think nothing of it. But long have I been awaiting the nameless, eager individual who would skim my AO3 profile and click fandom after fandom and work after work and thrive in the Worlds I spin with story silk of every color imaginable. Long have I been hoping that even just one person would click with my writing so much that they would seek it continuously like burning beacons in a blizzard and find light and warmth and comfort everywhere they turned, whether they sped over the streets of Cybertron or strode through the tall grass of Ordona or spun in L's chair whilst staring at the computer screen. Long have I been waiting for these lovely people from the future and YOU ARE ONE OF THEM! So I may melt at your lovely comments, partially because you don't hold back your words (I love when people leave long comments, lol) and write such sweet and insightful notes, but mostly because I am still so thrilled I get to finally chat with a Reader, and now friend, I've Always Been Waiting For. You're so cool you also get to hear fun things about Gatekeeper 😂 Which makes me SO excited to share those Fire Emblem fics with you someday too. Oh man. I cannot wait till you read what I've written about Gatekeeper. Your reactions are going to be so incredible.

And so, as they say— FOR THE BOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👀 ✨ 🥰 🤔 💞 ⚔️ 🙂 This is such a sweet ask game and you gave the greenlight to do this so of *course* I'm taking that opportunity to throw ALL OF THESE EMOJI AT YOU mwahahaha think fast, Mail!

Sparrow, I’m going to be frank with you. You seem like the type of person who melts at even the smallest compliment, so I genuinely fear if you’ll be able to survive some of the nice things I have to say about you 😂😂😂 But I appreciate your boldness! CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!

👀 Share the story of how we first met, or how you first heard of me

I actually remember this one pretty well. Ari came into the TP server one day and she was so excited because someone had gifted her a fluffy TP Zelink fanfic. And that fic, of course, was yours. And I read it. And I loved it. And I think I gushed about it in the comments a bit and you probably replied back (I admittedly don’t remember any of what was said between us lmao). And then later we got to meet more through Discord and I kept reading more of your works too, and since we share so many similar interests it seems that we just naturally became friends haha.

✨ Tell me which of my works (fic or art) is your favorite! 

This is an easy one. My favorite fic of yours is “Alighting the Darkness”. Not only is it really sweet, and heartwarming, and fluffy, but it also just feels so poetic. To see all the little ways that Link brings light into Zelda’s otherwise dreary life. That is one of the things I love most about Zelink and you executed it flawlessly. Oh, and of course, this is the same fic mentioned in the previous answer, so it’s also the reason we met! So surely it deservers a little love for that too 😂

🥰 Say one nice thing about me

Sparrow, you are just genuinely so fun to be around. Our conversations are always so pleasant, and I especially love whenever you share your thoughts or analyses or your passion with others. Much like Link in your story (will I ever be able to answer one of these questions without referencing that story???), I feel that you bring light into the lives of everyone you meet 😌

🤔 What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think of me?

The first thing I want to say is poetry! Because I feel that you have such a keen eye for identifying poetry in the things you’re passionate about, and I know that you’ve done it numerous times for the Legend of Zelda series. All of your works always feel like they have a poetic aspect to them as well, which is probably why I’m so awed by most of them lol. The second answer I want to give is “Gatekeeper fangirl”. If you know, you know 😂😂😂

💞 Guess who my favorite iteration of Zelink is

Hmm…I’m really not too sure on this one. I want to say it’s a tossup between OOT and TP…You’ve written a lot of TP Zelink stories so I’m going to take a wild guess and lock in TP Zelink as my final answer!

⚔️ Guess my favorite Zelda game

Another one that I’m really not too sure about lol. Again, I’m feeling that OOT and TP both hold special places in your heart. And again, I’m going to go with my gut and say that your favorite is probably Twilight Princess! You’ll have to let me know if I’m close or not haha.

🙂 Just wish me a nice day :D

Sparrow, I hope you have a wonderful day. I think that you’re a wonderful person and I wish you all the best 🙏 Thanks for the asks and for always being your kind and awesome self! :)

changing leaves-pjs (teaser)

hey! i'm back!!! I have finished writing this fic i just now need to edit it. and what better motivator than posting a teaser lol!! this fic is my submission for the Seasons of Love Collab. I can not find the link to it but it's based on this prompt: Autumn, the bittersweet season filled with the realization of our endearment towards another, or the realization that we don’t love them anymore. It’s supposed to be filled with, heart-breaks and heart-makes. (i.e, in relationships)

Summary: Autumn, the season you used to associate with the failure of your first relationship takes on a new meaning when you find yourself presented with a second chance.

Alternatively, you and jisung break up in autumn and fall back in love in autumn.

Pairing: park jisung x fem!reader

Genre: best friends to lovers, exes to lovers, a little high school au, mainly college au, fluff, angst (but barely there, just for plot)

Warnings: bad grammar lol (grammarly can only do so much), kissing, nothing else for this teaser, i'll add to this for the full fic

Word Count: 1,068 for teaser.

Projected Word Count: 6,400 ish

Disclaimer: I am in no way claiming this is how these celebrities mentioned in my story behave in real life. This story is all fiction.

This my original work so please do not copy or repost. Reblogging is perfectly fine tho <3

The warm breeze tickled your cheeks as you strolled down the walkway of your college campus. The ground was covered with a variety of hues: yellows, oranges, reds, pinks, and browns. With each step taken, a crunch sounded from underneath your shoes. The campus looked picturesque during this time of year. The trees had numerous colors sprinkled amongst their leaves. To others, it was healing to take a quick stroll around campus before classes with no company but the wind, leaves, and trees. For you, this season brought you nothing but bittersweet memories. Some may say you are overreacting. But to you, this season reminded you of a love that could have worked only if you had more time.

You met Park Jisung in your senior year of high school. You were a new student and he was your deskmate. Cliche, I know right? Neither of you talked. It wasn’t until you were forced to. Okay, forced is too harsh of a word. Paired is more suiting. You were paired with Jisung on a project together. Oddly enough, you had a lot in common with the tall, lanky, browned-hair boy. You both liked soccer. Although, he was way more committed than you were. After all, he was the captain of the soccer team. You just played for fun. You both liked dancing. You were part of a dance crew before you moved. Jisung was currently in a dance crew. When you and Jisung started to hang out outside of school, you would play soccer with him or share a choreography you were working on. You enjoyed being with Jisung. It wasn’t too far later that you started to crave Jisung’s company. His awkward laugh and cute smile drew you in.

He would remember random things about you. That one time, in passing you told Jisung how you have been craving boba. Later that day, Jisung handed you a Brown Sugar Milk Tea. Your eyes widened as you took the cup. “Jisung?! What? Thank you so much! How much was it?”

“It’s okay! You don’t need to pay me back,” Jisung gave you a shy smile and went to his next class. Turns out Jisung had an off period and decided to make a twenty-minute drive to the bubble tea shop downtown.

You realized you liked Jisung as the leaves began to change from green to brown. It was your senior year after all but you still wanted to give high school romance a chance. Although deep down, you knew high school romances don’t last. You worked up all the courage you had in your 18-year-old body and confessed to him

“Jisung! I have something to tell you,” You called after Jisung in the hallway.

He whipped his head around to look down at you. You and Jisung had quite a height difference. “What is it Y/N? Did something happen?”

“Jisung, I like you.” You said in one breath.

Jisung stared at you with pink-tinted cheeks. He turned his head away before saying, “I like you too, Y/N.”

Just like that, you had your first boyfriend. Jisung was a wonderful boyfriend. I mean as wonderful as any 18-year-old boy can get. He would drive you to and from school. You guys would go on dates together to the boba shop and cafes downtown. He was your first boyfriend, the first hand you held, the first boy who liked you, and the first kiss. You still hold that memory of your first kiss close to your heart.

It was a warm afternoon on Saturday. Jisung took you to the playground nearby his house. You were sliding down the slides, climbing over all the equipment like an excited toddler. Playgrounds were yours and Jisung’s favorite place to go together. Something about being able to channel your inner kid with the person you loved was fun. The swings were your favorite part of the playground. Being able to reach the top and see everything and in the next moment be on the ground level was a great comfort to you. You knew what was going to happen, but could still fall back if needed.

“Y/N! Get off the swings! Come ride the seesaw with me,” Jisung called out.

“Ji, give me a couple more minutes,” you called back.

Jisung stood from his spot by the seesaw and stood a little bit in front of the swing so he wouldn’t get kicked by your feet.

“Y/N! Please, it’s starting to get dark and we will have to go back soon,” Jisung tried to reason.

Your swing started to slow down and soon enough the swing stopped moving. Jisung took this as his chance to grab onto the chains to stop you from moving again. Jisung's arms caged your frame and caused you to look up at him. You realized that even though you have been with Jisung for 6 months; he has never stood this close to you.

“Ji, I can’t get up and go to the seesaw if you keep trapping me.” “You look really pretty today.” You both spoke at the same time.

“Jisung what?” You felt your face heating up at his compliment.

“You look really pretty,” Jisung said as he stepped even closer if that was possible. He bent down so he was at eye level with you on the swing.

“Jisung, you know that flattery doesn’t work on me,” You rolled your eyes. The next events were a blur, but before you knew it his lips were on yours. It was a sweet, short, and feather-light kiss but it still gave you butterflies and made you giddy. When Jisung pulled away he had a tiny smirk on his face. You bit your lip to hide your smile but unfortunately were unable to. You grabbed Jisung’s hand and dragged yourselves to the seesaw.

Eventually, all good things must come to an end. It was June of your Senior year. College decisions were finalized. You chose to major in writing at a nearby university. Jisung, on the other hand, got accepted into a world-renowned university abroad on a soccer scholarship. You were next to him when he received the news. At that time all you felt was happiness, you didn’t think about the consequences of him moving away. You were naive and believed that you and Jisung could get past any barrier. Jisung believed this too.

Chapter 3

Four days after the Neal incident, as she'd dubbed it, Emma trudged up the stairs to her floor, favoring her left leg a little. The asshole she'd been hired to find by a scorned lover with a child that he'd up and abandoned saw her taking pictures of his house and vehicle and came out to confront her. When she told him the reason she was there, he pushed her and ended up landing hard on her hip in the middle of the street. Emma ended up punching him, a neighbor called the cops, long story short, said asshole was now sitting in a jail cell with a black eye and a shiny new child support order. But damn if her hip and thigh didn't hurt.

She made her way down the hallway and stopped at apartment 427, only a little ways down the hall from her own apartment, and knocked. A woman answered, pale blonde hair resting over her shoulder in an intricate braid, icy blue eyes lighting up as she recognized Emma.

"Hey, Elsa, I'm sorry I'm late. Problems with the di-i-i-fficult person I was tailing. Hey, kid!" She cut off her curse word as Henry came into view.

"Hi, Mom! I'll get my shoes!" Henry replied and took off further into the apartment.

"It's no problem, Emma, really," her friend said, sweeping the door open and offering for Emma to come in. Emma shook her head.

"No, we better head home. Once I sit down, I don't think I'll be getting back up," she chuckled.

"Did something happen?" Elsa asked, eyes widening in alarm.

"Just had a disagreement with the asphalt. I'll be alright." She shrugged.

"You're hurt! What happened?" Elsa asked.

Emma recounted the tale briefly, downplaying it as much as possible.

"What a jerk!" Elsa fumed and Emma nodded in agreement.

"He got what was coming to him," she replied just as Henry rounded the corner, shoes now in place. "Ready to go, kid?" she asked and Henry nodded enthusiastically. Emma dug in her pocket and fished out a $50, extending it to Elsa. The other blonde shook her head in refusal.

"No way, Emma. It was my pleasure to watch him. It was good to have the company." Her pink bowed mouth quirked up in a smile.

"You never let me pay you. One of these days I'm just gonna slip it in your shoe," Emma threatened and Elsa just laughed. "Say thank you to Aunt Elsa, Henry." Henry had adopted the 'aunt' title for both Elsa and Ruby as soon as he could talk. Well, Ruby had adopted it for herself and Henry followed suit with Elsa.  She was grateful to have friends that were as close as family, even when she was stupidly cutting people out for Neal. They'd always stuck by her, even when she didn't deserve it.

"Thank you!" Her son threw his arms around Elsa's waist and she chuckled and hugged him back.

"You're welcome anytime, Henry," she assured him and kissed the top of his head.

"I assume he behaved himself?" Emma directed the question at Elsa, but looked at her son who nodded solemnly, his big hazel eyes sincere.

"Of course. We made spaghetti for dinner and watched a movie and Henry even helped with the dishes." Elsa smiled. Emma ruffled Henry's hair.

"That's my boy," she praised her son who beamed back at her. "I'll catch you later, okay?" She looked back at Elsa.

"I hope so. Cause I talked to Ruby a couple days ago and she mentioned some pretty interesting stuff," she replied with a raised eyebrow. Emma groaned. If Ruby told Elsa about Killian, then she almost certainly told Mary Margaret, who definitely told her brother. She was surprised David hadn't beat down her door about it already.

"Ruby has a big mouth," Emma retorted and Elsa seemed amused by her discomfort. "We will talk later, I promise."

"I look forward to it," Elsa said, slipping back into her apartment, a twinkle in her eye.

I'm so sorry if this sounds ignorant, and I'm sure you're tired of explaining it, but do views or "hits" on Ao3 mean anything? Because i'll see the posts about authors needing kudos and comments (which i understand completely) but i'll also see the view count and i'm like "but it's got so many hits, just go by that too!" So what goes into an author truly knowing how well they're doing?

Hi there! And yeah, I’ve explained how this works before, but I’m always happy to explain it again. Because it bears repeating. :)

Hits on AO3 mean very little. Someone clicks through to the fic, reads the tags and summary, maybe the first few paragraphs of a novel-length fic, and then nopes out without finishing. It still registers a hit.

Writing a multi-chapter fic posted in weekly installments that has a significant following? Yeah, hits are also meaningless here, because every time you post a new installment and all your dedicated readers click through to read the next chapter? They each register new hits. They’re not UNIQUE viewers to the entire fic, yet it can still look that way in the hit counter. And if it’s a 50 chapter fic that posts over the course of a whole year? The “compound” hits really start to add up, despite each of those unique readers only being able to leave 1 kudos (albeit multiple comments, if they so desire).

If something we post generates a thousand hits but only 100 kudos, it can start to feel like a lot of readers may not have bothered to read to the end, you know? If I make it to the end of a fic, I hit the kudos button. It takes literally one second, and in my mind it’s the equivalent of saying, “Thank you for writing this and posting it for free for my enjoyment.”

I personally don’t have the “false hits equivalency” problem that writers who post WIP’s do, because I always post complete works. Even when I’ve tried to post serially, I end up giving up after a few days and just going ahead and posting the entire thing. I tried to do that with Ultraviolet, posting a chapter a day, and lasted five whole days before just posting the rest all at once. I have no patience for drawing things out unnecessarily. :P

As a result, the hits count on it are artificially inflated:

2269 hits as of today, when I posted it back at the end of June. But heck, there’s more than 10% kudos-to-hits ratio, so even considering that I know a number of people had been reading along as I posted the first five chapters, that’s still a pretty decent average. Believe it or not, that’s considered to be fairly excellent as a hits-to-kudos ratio.

Now on to the thing I just posted a few days ago, Dean’s Days Off. I posted it all at once (note the posting date):

That’s a lot of hits, considering I can assume that most of them are not redundant, with the same readers clicking back through to read a new chapter. Still, even working under the assumption that A LOT of those are unique hits from different people, I’m left with the assumption that less than 20% of them actually read all the way to the end, because of the kudos.

This theory works FOR NOW, because this is a new story. I doubt many people have had a chance (even if they loved it and intend to read it again someday-- which is just wishful thinking on my part, but whatever) have had a chance to go back and read it again already, you know? So these are largely most probably original hits. But over time, there may be a fair few people who return to read it again and CAN’T leave kudos again. The hits-to-kudos ratio will inevitably drop over time.

Plus there’s also the factor in the other direction-- readers who click through and then download the story (I always do this with fic I love, partly because it’s easier to read on my kindle, but also because I’ve see too much fic I love get taken down by the authors, and I like to make sure I have a copy in case that ever happens). I have fic I’ve reread NUMEROUS times, but the author has no way of knowing how much I adore their writing in that case UNLESS I EXPLICITLY TELL THEM.

AO3 doesn’t keep statistics for downloads. Unless a reader tells me, I have no idea that they may have downloaded my story to read again. It doesn’t even generate another hit in that case, you know?

In any case, kudos, comments, OR hits-- none of them is a perfect gauge for readership. Hits may be meaningless. I think 3 of the hits for T&S were generated by me-- one of which was me noping out within a page or two of starting because there was no way in hell I was gonna keep reading, and two of which were unlabeled links to the effect of, “OMG I JUST READ THIS THING AND I NEED A MOMENT TO RECOVER,” which is an intriguing sort of post where the words “THIS THING” were a link to it... I had no idea, but lo and behold, I generated a “hit” to it. >.>

I’ve clicked on fic recs that from the description in the post sounded right up my alley, only to see something in the tags on AO3 that made me nope out of reading, or got a short way in to the story before realizing it just wasn’t my thing and closing out. All of that generates hits. Meaningless, meaningless hits.

I have opened fic, decided to “Mark For Later” so I can open it again and read it when I’m in the right mood, or when I have time to devote to it, or whatever. I have A LOT of fic Marked For Later. Still, opening it to mark it and add it to my list generates a hit. It’ll generate another hit when I do eventually go back and read it. Possibly generating another hit when I open it yet again trying to remember if I’ve read it... 

Or the worst-- I’ve had the thing open in a tab for two weeks hoping to find the time to read it, and every time Chrome refreshes the page (because Chrome does that) it generates a new hit... I kinda feel guilty about that...

Hits are ultimately meaningless.

Kudos at least have SOME meaning. A unique reader read the entire thing, got all the way to the end, and felt good enough about reading it to hit what essentially amounts to the THANK YOU NICE WRITER PERSON button.

Some people are willing to spend a little more time writing a comment. Anything from a “Thank you for writing this” to “Oh gosh I love this story, and xyz was my favorite!” all the way to leaving a running commentary on every chapter or a five paragraph book review at the end. Or heck, just an incoherent keysmash with a bunch of exclamation points.

Or one of my personal favorites, “I just read this again and can’t leave more kudos, so have this

I don’t understand the resistance to clicking the kudos button if you read the entire story and derived any enjoyment from it whatsoever. If you’re embarrassed about it, you can always log out of AO3 and leave kudos anonymously. No one will ever know it was you. :P

But I’ve had people ask me this before, wondering why they should even BOTHER hitting Kudos, and it’s like... you read this entire story, for the low low cost of zero dollars, and can’t be fussed to even click the Instant Thank You Button? That’s... shocking and frustrating as a writer. Some of my longer fic may have taken me HUNDREDS of hours to write, edit, etc. And it doesn’t merit half a second of time to click a button. I mean, sure, Dean’s Days Off is kinda short compared to some of my other work, but it still represents about 80 hours of my life. I spent about 80 hours working on that story. I spent several hundred hours working on Revenge of the Subtext. And even more than that working on Around the World in 24 Days. That’s a lot of hours. Can I get half a second of your time as an acknowledgement that it was worth it?

If I make it to the end of a story of any length, that’s automatically kudos. Job well done, Writer Person. You have suitably entertained me.

I admit that I am still personally weirded out by leaving comments, but I do try and force myself to, especially if it’s a longer work. I get this OH GOSH PLEASE DON’T LOOK AT ME BUT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME FEEEEELINGS mentality about leaving comments. I turn into Dean Winchester and clam up. I TOTALLY GET THAT REACTION to leaving comments. That’s why the kudos button exists in the first place. No embarrassment required. Just a Thank You that writers can acknowledge in a measurable way. Unlike hits, which honestly we have no idea how many of them even read past the introduction let alone the entire story.

I wish there were some more accurate metric for calculating just how well received our works are, but really this is all we have. We don’t have bestseller lists. Our readers don’t have to pay for our work. Leaving kudos or liking our tumblr posts is great, and lets us know at least our followers appreciate what we’ve written. Leaving comments is fantastic because we can share the joy, answer questions, reply to theories y’all have about our stories (heck nothing is better to me than having someone meta-analyze my writing! I LOVE THAT AND WOULD LOVE TO SQUEE WITH JOY AT YOU!). Reblogging our tumblr posts is like the ultimate recommendation. It says not only someone read and enjoyed what we wrote, but wants other people to find the thing too.That’s how we find new readers, especially if the post ends up tagged with stuff like, “OMG THIS WAS SO EXCELLENT!” or whatever. Damn near makes my week. :P

But if we post something, even if it gets tons of hits, if no one bothers to hit the kudos button at the end, it can very quickly start to feel like maybe nobody ever read all the way to the end, so why even bother...

I probably shouldn’t have turned this into an essay, but since that seems to be my trademark, I guess I’ll just go ahead and post it...
