🦵🦵🥩🥩💔💔

hi, thanks for the ask!

🦵 - 6 sentences of the leg pain fic!

“I can see it in your face, Evan.” Tommy narrows his eyes. “What did we just talk about?” he sighs with a small eye roll, but it’s more fondly exasperated than anything else. Buck noticed by now how Tommy seems endeared even by the most annoying qualities of him, and it still amazes him. “How bad is it?” He repeats, voice soft and patient, just like he always is.

🥩 - 6 (or 7 lol) sentences of the barbecue fic

I'm introducing a couple ocs in this fic so any new names are just tommy's friends lol - also this video was the inspiration for this whole fic btw

 Buck’s mid-conversation with Karen and Alex, when he notices something in the corner of his eye, and his eyes are drawn to his boyfriend. Because Tommy, his gorgeous, hot, beautiful man, who’s currently standing at the grill and preparing food for everyone, decides it’d be a good idea to take off his t-shirt and tuck it into the back of his shorts. Buck’s mouth goes dry – he should be used to this sight by now, but every time it gets him like he’s seeing him for the first time ever. He stops paying attention to the conversation, already taking steps towards his boyfriend. “Hey, babe, you want a fresh beer?” Buck yells, ignoring the half-full bottle still in Tommy’s hand. Tommy looks down at the bottle, too, then at Buck, an amused smile on his face. “I’ll get you a fresh beer,” he decides, stepping into the house so quickly he nearly trips over his own feet.

💔 - 6 sentences of the cheating fic (reminder that they're not great people in this fic, and it's ooc, and idgaf haha)

It’s only when he wakes up, in Eddie’s bed, in Eddie’s clothes, with Eddie wrapped around him, that it hits him what he’s done. He’s really outdone himself this time, and he’s never felt shittier. Last night was amazing, of course it was, and it came with a new realization – that this thing with Eddie, this… this affair, or whatever the hell they’ve been doing, this isn’t just physical. How can it be? It’s Eddie. He should’ve realized earlier, after it happened that first, drunken night, and couldn’t bring himself to stop doing it again – in fact, he wanted it to happen, he couldn’t stop thinking about doing it again – despite having a girlfriend, who does not deserve this shit.

I watched the Mary Had A Little Lamb ep for the first time in aaages and oh no you guys are right about Dorothy. :( Rose mentions natural birthing classes and Dorothy says she wishes she'd known about that stuff and says all she did was scream at Stan never to touch her again and call him every name in the book, then when Rose asks if it was a rough labor she says it was a rough /conception/. Ugh. I like this episode because it sorta let's Dorothy use her experiences for good to help a kid but that just made me sad.

Ohh shit you're right anon!! I hadn't even really noticed that comment there before but wow, they really didn't even try to sugar-coat it in that scene. It's right there! The way Dorothy talks about that night with Stanley differs so much in her various accounts.

"It was over before I knew we were doing anything" vs calling him every name in the book, yelling at him never to touch her again & "it was rough conception" really paint different pictures, and the way Dorothy talks about it seems to be directly proportionate to the type of conversation they're having (and the mood they're all in). This was a serious conversation, prompted by a very serious occurrence, so there was room to be honest. Whereas most of the time, when Dorothy's first night with Stan is mentioned, it's around cheesecake and the mood is a lot lighter than it was in that scene — and she seems to adjust the tone and contents of her retelling of the event accordingly.

Which- I mean, we all knows Dorothy feels safe around the Girls, but she's very clearly safeguarding that story from them — which speaks volumes about how traumatic it must've been.

But yes!! You're so right about that episode: I love that Dorothy got to use her own experience for good :) I've always been a little disappointed by how little attention they seem to put towards how it all impacts Dorothy (I mean, seeing a young girl go through what was a very formative — and first and foremost: traumatic — experience that set the course for literally the rest of Dorothy's life, must've been very hard!) but I guess there wasn't much time for that. And it fits Dorothy's character in a way, to put the focus on how she can put those past experiences to use, rather than on how they impact her emotionally.

Out of Context Lines

thank you so much @thoughtsofthegirlwiththecurl for the tag!! I honestly haven't sat down and written anything in......forever. Yikes. But! I have had a WIP idea for a hot bit now, and this inspired me to sit down and at least get some words written!!

"I'm this way," he says, nodding his head in the direction of frat row, and if Eric wasn't already half-drunk and full from Boston cream pie, if the evening air wasn't already warm with the thick wet promise of summer, if his roommate hadn't dragged him out of the dorm for one last night of the year—if, if, always if—he would decline the insinuated offer. Jack scuffs his boot against the pavement. "That is, unless you want to call it a night," he adds. Eric blinks up at him, swallows, focuses on the furrow of Jack's brow, and finally realizes, hazily and all at once, where he's seen that before. "...Oh Lord, you're the captain of the hockey team, ain't you?"

i'm not sure really who hasn't already been tagged and/or who currently has any WIPs, so this is just an open tag for anyone who sees this and wants to participate!!

Greg x Reader - A little appetiser Summary - Greg's messed up, your teasing is justified but he still gets cocky. Rating T/M - Mature themes, sexiness but no explicitness Author Note; There was no prompt for this I just really like writing domestic Greg all happy and in love.

"Your arse in that dress is sinful." Greg pressed close as he passed by watching you as you pulled the wineglasses out of the dishwasher.

"Well don't get any ideas because your friends will be here soon." You could feel his eyes on you as you straightened up and it would be a lie to say you hadn't chosen the dress for the purposes of torturing him. He deserved it though. He was the one who'd invited everyone round after too many beers the week before and then he was the one who'd offered to cook, then had to stay late at work leaving everything to you.

"They're your friends too." Greg said his lips pressing gentle kisses with intent along your neck his arms sliding around your waist. You loved him and warmth radiated through you, the delicious slow burn of arousal starting low in your belly.

You weren't going to give in to him though.

"Hmm but I didn't invite them round-" You replied as Greg persisted at your neck, you stopped the groan about to leave you and tensed your legs to stop them from going to jelly as he hit that spot. "-and I wasn't the one who forgot he'd invited everyone around until someone at work reminded him. I also wasn't the one who promised to cook and then stayed late at work leaving my better half to do all the prep, shopping and organising."

Greg's hands skimmed your shoulders, pausing to slip a finger under your bra strap and admire it. He knew it was his favourite, the one with the lacey trim that fit just right, made your chest look like something from a thoroughly indecent 50's blue movie.

"I did apologise about that." Greg said against your shoulder. "And I get the feeling you might be getting your own back." His hands skimmed over your waist and started to scrunch the base of the dress, letting out a groan when his fingers found the top of the suspenders. "You're definitely punishing me."

"I don't know what you're talking about, I simply got ready for the dinner you organised and now I'm trying to carry on with the prep." You turned into his arms before pushing past him, heading for the stove. You dipped the tip of a teaspoon into the pan and tasted it to check then turned it down to a low simmer.

"I really am sorry." Greg said sliding his hands back around your waist. You turned into him, allowing him to kiss you. His lips soft and warm and wanting. The pressure seemed to slip straight between your thighs and if you carried on the battle would be lost. You'd give into him easily. Greg pushed his luck hooking his hands under your thighs and lifting you onto the counter. His hands slid up your stocking covered thighs and up under your dress.

You groaned, cursing yourself for letting the sound escape and Greg pressed himself between your thighs.

"Let me taste you." He grinned against your lips. "Just a little appetiser."

Fuck.

Your heaving chest is enough of a giveaway that you don't want him to stop. Not really. Especially not when he talks like that and especially when you know how good he is with his mouth.

"You're a very bad man." You say fingers raking the hair at the base of his skull. He moans and grins at you. Sliding his hands further up your thighs, inching the dress up higher. It's tight but the fabric has a stretch that means it gives you some leeway.

"And you are a very bad girl." He says, fingers skimming the dampness of the lacey black knickers he loves so much. Your hips react to him and the grin comes back.

He's cocky.

Too cocky.

"Ready and waiting for-"

BZZZZZ

The door bell buzzes. His head drops to your chest and he makes a noise of disappointment that makes you laugh quietly.

"We could ignore it." He says into your chest.

"You invited them." You say scrunching your hands in the base of his hair again, just the way he likes, knowing it will do nothing to abate his arousal and now he'll have to answer the door with it and have it hanging over him all night. You press on his chest and jump down off the counter adjusting your dress. "Go answer the door." You say pressing a kiss to his cheek and patting his chest.

HI HELLO SO SORRY FOR HARRASSING YOU IN YOUR INBOX FEEL FREE TO TELL ME TO STFU WHENEVER BUT YOURE JUST THE ONLY MUTUAL THAT ACTUALLY IS INTO TBOSAS AGERE.

anyway do u have hcs on cg!Sejanus and little!coryo? I’ll probably be back stalking ur inbox to shove my hc for them in your face but I’m curious of yours and if we have any mutual ones??

peace n love and I’m sorry again for harrassing you-

hahaha never harassing me, I promise!! I adore getting messages in my inbox!! I'm also very hyped by having a mutual who is just as excited about tbosas agere as I am lol please feel free to send your hcs my way I love hearing them

ugh cg!Sejanus 😍😭 I have so much love for him - and Little Coryo is a massive guilty pleasure at this stage. I do have some hcs on them - mostly assuming this is in a littles are known verse (though I do have a couple vague fic ideas on an age regressing Coryo in a non-littles are known verse if anyone cares to hear about that)

Probably gonna put a break here because I'm probably gonna ramble about them for ages lol - this ask has been a great excuse to post hcs on them so - you're getting more than you signed up for lol!!!!!!! Sage feel free to message me that I'm doing too much haha, hoping that you won't mind the rambling but idk just lemme know if it's too much - and also if you like any of the hcs/agree with any!

Despite Coryo being the person defending Sejanus more often than not, Sejanus is so loyal to Coryo and Very protective of him, no matter the circumstances.

Early on (pre tbosas/early academy days) Sejanus is more concerned with protecting big Coryo's representation than he is with considering caregiving for Little Coryo, and totally helps to hide that Coryo is a Little from everyone.

Absolutely found out that Coryo did not have anything for Little him and absolutely immediately started sneaking him gear.

Probably tries to do it in a way that Coryo won't notice and argue against it - gives him a paci when he's practically asleep, hands him a stuffie to keep when he's already started slipping.

sneaks him bite size snacks periodically across a long time until he's confident Coryo's eaten enough to get through the rest of the day without realising Sejanus has caught on to his food problem.

(If in a verse with any kind of headspace suppressants) Sejanus refuses to let Coryo ignore/supress his headspace - will do anything for him but let him hurt himself.

Is really big on hand holding. They're going anywhere? Sejanus is interlocking their fingers immediately. Is Little Coryo much of a runner? Not at all. Is Sejanus giving him the opportunity? Nope. That boy is constantly at LEAST in eyesight of Sejanus.

LOVES playing with Coryo's blonde curls. Mostly only gets the chance when they're both half asleep already but it's such a soothing and comforting thing for Sejanus to do.

I feel like Sejanus would be the type of caregiver to give daily affirmations. Especially with how obvious it is that Coryo overthinks every moment of his life. I can see him trying to get Little Coryo to repeat positive affirmations in the morning and before bed.

I see Little Coryo as an easy crier. He's just so overwhelmed about everything and has barely processed any of it. When things don't go his way, he tends to break down easier because of that.

Not much of a tantrum thrower - but Little Coryo is Very petulant. He's pouty and fussy and whiney, and thinks he deserves anything and everything he could possibly want, and he Will be devastated if that doesn't work out (for like 5 minutes and then will absolutely have moved onto the next thing)

Little Coryo adores Tigris and definitely thinks she's the boss of everyone and that anything she says is always 100% true and never doubts it. Tigris is far too kind a soul to take advantage of this.

Little Coryo is definitely touch starved but also definitely does not realise it or believe it.

Sejanus tries to comfort him by hugging him and totally thinks he's made things worse for a second with how emotional of a response he gets from Coryo from doing it.

Coryo is extremely adamant that he's an independent big kid who doesn't really need Sejanus help with anything - right up until he's a little bit tired and sleepy and has decided that he's done with whatever he's doing, and then he's just about the clingiest thing ever and wants to steal every drop of Sejanus's attention.

Sejanus loves reading to Little Coryo - picture books, children's novels, poetry, (if Coryo is tired/little enough to allow it - touch and feel books/ anything interactive).

Coryo is either very talkative or barely verbal - Sejanus narrates his every movement though and fills in the silence most of the time

As I said - kind of used this ask as an excuse to dump some very random hcs on these two - I definitely have a lot more but that's heading into plot for some fics I'm currently working on territory sooo...

Sorry if this has been unintelligible or a nightmare to read - I am incredibly tired and basically writing this asleep haha but I loved rambling for a bit <3

I thought that was so interesting/cute that Sam was like "not really" when they asked in that podcast if he was ready for the show to go on netflix and reach a wider audience. It kind of makes me happy because it makes me feel like either way, we're good. If the show blows up or just gets a significantly bigger audience, then great for the show. If it doesn't, Sam will be happy just making the show in his little bubble lol. Though it's interesting because the show has already grown in popularity/attention this year, but I guess the idea is this could be a bigger jump? The show getting a huge boost from netflix would make me feel more secure about future seasons, though it seems like amc is really committed to the show and happy with it regardless. And I loved what he said about it feeling like amc gave them a lot of money to make a fairly niche show -- so I think/hope that will continue regardless of how popular the show gets, that AMC clearly trusts Rolin's vision and wants him to execute it.

/random netflix day thoughts

Yeah, it's interesting! I think Sam's response there is pretty classy, and goes to that idea that fame and celebrity is often a side-effect of acting, and for many (if not most) not the objective. A lot of actors just love it as an artform, so the perks of getting bigger projects is ultimately about the roles it might open up for you as opposed to how identifiable you are as a name and a face.

I'm very curious to see how the audience grows with the Netflix drop - like you said, it's definitely felt bigger already with s2. A part of me really wonders if a part of that is that peak TV is over, and it feels like a prestige show in an era where even arguably 'good' shows (The Bear, House of the Dragon, Severance) aren't actually that good. Like the TV landscape is currently pretty desolate, and it feels like IWTV and Shogun are probably the only TV shows of the last little while to feel truly exceptional. It's definitely a complex show though and one that rewards attention and re-watching, which is not necessarily something broad audiences want, so who knows how it'll go on a platform like Netflix.

But yeah! I'm feeling quietly confident for a few more seasons. AMC said themselves, they don't want to make something for everyone, but rather shows that are everything for someone, and I think IWTV really hits that sweet spot for them.

Heyyy just read through CETBWA and loved it all over again! No rush but any word on when there might be a chapter 21? 👀

[aura-bug]

Very late but I like your Yo-kai Watch protag Lucas + unassuming small Wobblewok idea, and I gotta know more about Venoct filling Whisper's role. Does he actually know things or does he also use a book/tablet to cover his mistakes? Is he more of a right-by-your-side butler or a secret agent butler who deals with problems incognito?

OOOOOO good question

I feel like earlier on, Venoct would’ve acted more as Lucas’s behind-the-scenes guardian, mostly looking out for him from the sidelines and only ever revealing himself when Lucas got into serious trouble, because he knew Lucas was fully capable of handling the smaller things himself.

But as time went on and Lucas gradually found himself getting into more and more danger bc of yo-kai trying to kill him, Venoct had to increasingly keep stepping in until he decided it was best to just start playing an active right-by-your-side bodyguard role in Lucas’s life, and he slowly starts entering his overprotective-butler-dad arc

As for his knowledge about yo-kai, I DO feel like he’d know more than Whisper and wouldn’t need a yo-kai pad, but he’d do that thing he does in the anime where the others THINK he’s just playing up the “”crimes”” of some wimp ass yo-kai to make them sound scary and/or intimidating, but it turns out he’s talking about an ACTUAL big huge terrifying monster

like for example it *sounds* like he’s talking about manjimutt or tattletell at first, and Lucas just goes “haha he’s probably playing it up for dramatic effect” but then Mass Mutterer/Tattleterror ACTUALLY appears and Lucas is like “wait what the fuck”

But also for a bit of subversion I think it’d be funny if venoct just straight up WAS overexaggerating normal ass yo-kai sometimes. especially once he started becoming more overprotective and suspicious of others trying to kill Lucas.

Like Lucas eventually gets used to venoct’s dramatic descriptions and starts preparing for the worst, only for venoct to reveal that the “heinous” yo-kai they’re dealing with is actually just. like a flumpy or sum. lucas yet again goes “what the fuck” and venoct just says “LUCAS you dont UNDERSTAND, as your BODYGUARD it is MY JOB to ensure your SAFETY, and I can not allow ANY potential threat to slip under my radar, NO MATTER how UNASSUMING they may outwardly appear”

an uncle nina check in <3

hi team! thanks for sticking around! i know my blog isn't always the most exciting and enriching place in the world in terms of content, but i am very /content/ to have you all here. <3333

i promise, oddly enough, i have A TON of inspiration and ideas for all my weird styles ( if you're curious about anything please lmk! i've been trying to flesh out my aus out lately ), i've just been in a major bummer depression era lately, so it's hard for me to get my asks done and i'm having a hard time committing to finishing my writing. :<

i think it's because of stress and my bipolar, but i am trying to get back on the horse! ( are we all laughing at the idea of me trying to get on a horse? i'd start crying help city girl fail moment for me ) yeehaw!

and while, unfortunately due to the instability ( fabulous legendary iconery ) of my pretty girl popstar personality, i do not know whether i will be answering almost no questions or one million, regardless of that, i just wanted to let you know, i'm still here, still kicking my feet, twirling my hair, cooking...i'm just really trying not to force myself to put out anything i don't like...and only do what makes me truly happy.

however, nothing, my dear sweet e-darlings...

makes me happier than coming home to all of you. <333

so thank you for flooding even the darkest corners of my life with bright light, supporting my phantom fics and being wonderful,

uncle nina xx

Total Solar Eclipse 2024 - Fort Worth, Texas

[dubiousdoctors]

<- guy who can't seem to get a job EVER

[safyresky]

Crystal Springs: Prologue + Chapters 1-4: Now on ao3!

Start from the top with the Prologue (An Encounter) HERE!

Chapter 1: Eleven Months

Jack reflects on the past year, and how everything post thaw has led him to this point. (aka: and here's what you missed on glee!)

Chapter 2: Intervention

Cornered by the Council, Jack admits that he is powerless. Thankfully, they have a solution for this exact situation: the Legate Law.

Chapter 3: Now or Never

Jack tells Santa about his family, what actually happened on the Day of Darkness, and what exactly happened between him and his sister. Jacqueline arrives at the Pole.

Chapter 4: Small Talk

Jack and Jacqueline come face-to-face for the first time in 1400 years. It goes...about as well as you'd expect.

---

Rating: General

Ships: Multi (OCxOC; BernardxOC; SantaxCarol; etc.)

Warnings: Non-Graphic Violence

Status: In-progress (formerly completed)

Summary:

It's been almost a year since Jack Frost thawed and things are looking...well, not so great. Jack's powers are seemingly gone. Without them, the Dome that keeps the North Pole safe from the cold and its magic controlled, is melting, putting everything and everyone at risk.

Unable to hide his power shortage any longer, Jack is forced to admit the truth. Thankfully, there is a solution: enacting the Legate Law, bringing Jack and the sister that he hurt so many centuries ago back together again.

But when Jacqueline starts experiencing destructive blackouts, the pair are forced to head back home to Crystal Springs, bringing Jack face to face with the rest of the family.

Needless to say, between getting his powers back, helping his sister figure out what in the FROST those blackouts even were, reconciling with his parents, meeting the two even younger siblings he didn't even KNOW he had, NOT TO MENTION the ancient threat that's had it out for the ENTIRE Frost family finally making a move?

Saving Christmas (regrettably) is looking to be a little bit...complicated.

---

I'll be updating biweekly on whatever day I'm feeling it (Wednesdays seem fun, but we'll see 🤷🏻‍♀️) until I catch up to where it's at on ff dot net! then they'll update with THE NEW CHAPTERS simultaneously (if I counted right and don't get over excited, this will be sometime in November! Which is GREAT timing for the new shit :D)

I'll make a fresh post whenever we update on ao3, like I already do with ff.net.

Cheers!
