#It's been a while since I've done a Daily Drabble

[anonarat]

Every time Hatou promised herself it would be the last time. At least in these last few iterations.

There’d once been a time when she’d hated Alice. One of the first times she’d truly gotten close to her, she couldn’t resist twisting the knife and betrayed her.

She still did, sometimes. And sometimes that was because it felt like she was betraying Yukari. Hatou was a chameleon. She would be whoever she thought to be to save Yukari.

She looked down, brushing a tear from Alice’s eye.

Even now, when Alice had had another nightmare, she’d affirmed her love physically.

This links to a wheel with nearly a hundred fic tropes for plots, settings, and more. Spin it twice.

This could also work with art inspiration, but the buttons only allow for so many characters on them. And please do ramble in the tags! I'm going to have no idea what most of you are talking about, and it's going to be great.

"Your clothes would look nice on my bedroom floor."

Trigger Warnings; not proofread, pretty sure reader is described as 'girlfriend' or 'girl' somewhere, yandere behavior, extremely toxic behavior, manipulation, rip if you know someone like this irl, abuse of systems, abuse of pretty privilege (can't relate lol), and, as usual, bad writing. If I missed anything, then please let me know ♡ Here 'ya go 💗!Nonny, the second part of your request!! I hope it's to your standards... I'm not proofreading anything I'm putting out rn. I'm way too tired. I hope everyone had a good President's weekend))

Our boy is literally the definition of pretty privilege. He's got everything a girl would ever want, and he's the envy of all the guys on campus. He's sculpted like a Greek god, thanks to his Persian genetics and daily visits to the gym.

Everyone and anyone will listen to what LoveSick!Athlete's gotta say, and they'll do whatever he's asked, if he's saying it in a certain tone with a certain face. This is his manipulative personality coming into play. He understands that people will listen to him, for whatever reason, and he uses it to his advantage, scaring away any guys you may or may not find attractive.

Usually, it's pretty easy to do as they're just one of your classmates that you just find handsome, but you've never thought of talking to them, much less pursuing them. You're introverted personality (in this type of darling) makes it easy for him to keep you all to himself.

The two of you have been together for years, ever since you were little kids, and you trust everything he says, but not for superficial reasons like everyone else. You see him for who he is. You understand that he'd never do anything to hurt you; I'm just looking out for you, yeah? Just take my word for it, he's not worth your time.

In this case, with this darling, the two of you aren't dating, in your eyes at least. And LoveSick!Athlete has been pursuing you for quite some time, but he's patient. The two of you are practically attached at the hip, and that alone scares off any of your suitors, so even if you find someone (guy or chick) attractive, then they're gone before you can even say 'hello'.

Now, I've gone over how LoveSick!Athlete deals with his 'competitors', though he doesn't see them as this, in this post. This post is more geared toward how he deals with jealousy, but I drabble on the idea of putting down other men and making you see them in a bad light.

LoveSick!Athlete don't see these men, no matter how you see them, as a threat to your relationship, nor his ego. The two of you are far too out of reach for them to touch; they can't get to you, but it's different when it's his teammate. Especially since he never shuts up about them, so they know that he's pursuing you or you're in a relationship (depending on the time).

Overall, I think LoveSick!Athlete would treat the situation similarly with his teammate as he would with some random guy, but he'll have a bitter taste in his mouth whenever he sees said teammate now. It's possible that he'll be rougher with them on the ice, pushing them harder, elbowing them, and tripping them. Of course, no one will notice. After all, he's their star player, he'd never do anything to hurt his teammates, never.

He'll bad mouth them, behind their back of course, to his other teammates and you, can't forget about you. He'll go on and on about all the things they've done over the summer while school was out. How they're so aggressive toward girls, especially the ones that say 'no' to him. You wouldn't believe what Sonia told me, sweets. She said...

Once you get him talking, he won't stop. LoveSick!Athlete would never, ever, miss the opportunity to trash on of his rivals. If the guy seems persistent and tries to talk to you, god, let alone he touches you, he'll rain hellfire on the campus. He'll get some college girls to go report him to the campus office, saying that they were assaulted by him. LoveSick!Athlete might even plant some drugs into the guy's bag, causing him to lose his athletic scholarship.

And if the guy tries to tell on him, like a rat, then he'll just be brushed off as "desperate" and "attention-seeking." That he's trying to push the blame on someone else, 'cause there's no way LoveSick!Athlete would ever do something like that.

He's the team's sweetheart, after all.

300 Followers Special!

AGH IT HAPPENED AGAIN

was legit just checking through my blog and realized but at least i caught it in time!!

Thank you all so much! For this and for all the support everyone gives on the silly things I make. I know the last like, several months of this blog have been chaos (from posting often to nothing while I was sick to semi-daily in December etc. etc.) so I appreciate everyone sticking with me through it all very much <333

I'll admit there's.... a LOT going on right now (looks at my wips and at my research to-do list) BUT, i don't mind adding something to the list! It just might take a bit of time to get to it lol

Pulling from the 100 follower milestone celebration ideas that didn't get picked, as well as a few other things I came up with, will do the top two if results are close :D

BUT feel free to pick the 'other' option if you have soemthing else you'd like to see! I will do whatever since this is me saying thanks ^^

Little bit of info on each thing below the cut, excited to see what you pick!

Q&A/Ask the Cast: a classic, I know my ask box is open but here's also a clear chance to ask something that you've been really curious about! I won't share spoilers for the story, but everything else is on the table, including stuff about me, writing etc. Just no super personal questions is all! Additionally, you can ask the cast questions and answers will be in character, perhaps with a little doodle as well ^-^

Writing Requests: same as all the other request things I've done, same rules apply (no nsfw, suggestive is fine, be specific if you want specific) and will be about 500-1000 words each

Doodle requests: I provide you with a little drawing I made with tender love and care (would be lined, colored, shaded, etc.)

A peek into the drafts: I do in fact have a couple other fic ideas floating around in my brain that I simply haven't started so that I don't get bogged down/focus on CS. I would share those and a little bit of concept art

AU Oneshot/Continuation: I take a oneshot I've written and add MORE to it in some way, anything that I've written is up for grabs (besides my multi-chap stories ofc) This includes my Promptober responses, DCA December, 'Secret' gifts I've done, and any other drabbles or such. Examples of times I've already done this would include Holiday Spirit (continuation of DCA December Day 7), and Restart (continuation of Promptober Day 29)

DIY the DCA: silly idea I've thought about where using my knowledge as an MechE I determine the costs of materials, equipment, etc. for what it would take to build the daycare attendant yourself, would it be completely accurate? probably not I am not an expert, would it be fun? yeah I fuckin love deep-diving on mcmastercarr for shit

Chekov's Gun Analysis Post: i explain and go line by line about ch. 15 of Confused Spirit and explain all the little callbacks, hints, etc., why i love it so much, and so on

Other: explained above, don't be shy to tell me if none of these sound interesting! Won't hurt my feelings :)

COSMIC IS DEAD, LONG LIVE COSMIC!

it's official: i wrote a fic a day, every day, in 2024

that's right. 366 days (leap yeap) of samaichi. in a row. if it doesn't sound real well let me tell you. it feels pretty damn surreal to me too

i set this challenge for myself because one of my biggest weaknesses as a writer is actually finishing stuff. my past is littered with the corpses of countless wips, and while i've gotten a bit better about finishing things in recent years, i still needed some major work in that department

so the idea for dailies was born. the idea was, specifically, for drabble-esque dailies. all samaichi, all around 100-300 words but definitely under 500 words each. like a writing warm-up, essentially, before working on other things

which... um......

yeah, so that didn't end up happening. the all samaichi part is the only bit i stuck to lol

only 9 of 366 works actually wound up being under 500 words, and 7 of those 9 were in january when i guess i was still at least kinda-sorta trying to stick to my original intentions

suffice it to say there was no work done on other things. [redacted] au my beloved stalled at around 20k words back in 2023 and has been untouched ever since

i do sort of wish i'd worked on longer projects this year (though thirteen rooms au clocked in at 57k and the one with the clones is approaching 50k too so... there wasn't nothing in the longer projects department) but overall i'm pretty damn proud of myself for seeing this through

the goal for next year! is of course to actually work on the longfics that have been simmering for all this time

i also want to challenge myself to work on another of my weaknesses as a writer: reading my own work

like listen i know it's a bad habit/trait to talk shit about your own work, and much like finishing things, i think i've gotten better about that in recent years. but i'm still ass at rereading my own writing without cringing myself half to death

so that's the project (or one of the projects) for next year! now that i've written a fic a day, i can read a fic a day next year (and two on one day because it is. no longer a leap yeap lol)

i may even read and pick out one thing i like about what i wrote. because pride in moderation is a skill worth learning i think

and because i can't stand to lose dailies entirely, i also want to go into next year with the resolution of posting very very short not!fics and hcs every day

(i really mean it this time. short. short! i swear! they will be ramuda-sized)

most likely i will sort my 2025 samaichi nonsense, of which there will be lots, into one tag (have not yet decided what this tag will be) so it will be easily searchable and mutable. well. searchable in theory. but this is tumblr dot com

to sum up. proud of myself. bit in disbelief. happy with this. onwards to bigger things (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ

2024 Fic Writer End of Year Roundup

Thank you @littedidyouknow for tagging me! Answer and then tag three or more creators to keep the game going!

(If you're in my answers consider yourself tagged if you'd like to play!!)

1. How many words did you publish on AO3 in 2024? 311,253

2. How many fics did you complete this year?

15 completed!

3. How many in progress or ongoing fics did you start this year?

I have 3 in progress/ongoing fics from this year! I started Divine Punishments (lol oops), have my ongoing drabble fic Choke on Desire, and am currently working on Treacherous Waters.

4. What was your favorite thing you wrote?

This is such a hard question to answer. But while it was a long time ago now, I am going to go with Separate My Body From My Soul. This was the first piece where I really felt like I found my stamina and voice as a fic writer. It feels very quintessential crazy-ache writing.

5. What piece was your most experimental or different from your usual style?

The most experimental was writing Dear Lucien, Dear Elain with @zenkindoflove. Epistolary writing isn't all that common in fanfiction, and then to write each one as a series of letters with another author (our own chapters serving as true, authentic reactions to what we read) made the writing experience feel so alive and rich. It was incredibly fun and creatively fulfilling. I cherish those memories so much!

6. Did any fics surprise you - either while writing or their reception?

I did not expect Animal Instincts to cause a little riot. I made new friends, got the funniest anons, and had people really invested with each update. The chapters flew out of me because they were a blast. Both the writing process and the reception shocked me.

7. Do you have a fic you wrote and loved that went under the radar? (This is your sign to reblog/repost it!)

I personally loved my oneshot for Lucien Week this year, The Fox Hunt. I was quite proud of the quality of my writing and take on a small historical AU. It had rakish, Fae Lucien and scandalized human Elain which is one of my favorite combos.

8. Who is an artist that inspired you?

@jadedbug @works-of-heart @bonecarversbestie @fierling @olenvasynyt Are all artists that greatly inspire me - from their kindness, to their talent, to the way they feed fandom with their amazing content!

9. Who is an author that inspired you?

@zenkindoflove inspires me daily! I couldn't have done all that I did this year without her encouragement, her accountability, her brain to pick...she's been my writing rock since we started chatting at the beginning of this year.

10. Who is a new author you discovered?

@sapphiresandgold @jsmelodies @clarafae @fortheloveofbanksy @the-darkestminds @starsreminisce @olenvasynyt You are all so talented and I've loved reading your works!

11. Did you do any collaborations? How did it start?

@zenkindoflove It all started because we talk too much and share a brain. Just as simple as a..."hey what if we...." And then we just jumped into a Google Doc. We hope to do another collab next year!

12. What accomplishments are you proudest of?

Finishing ACOWAR (Elucien's Version). It's my longest fic and first completed long fic. I basically rewrote the entire ACOWAR fic which was no easy task, but one I enjoyed immensely.

13. What did you learn about writing or creating this year?

The more you write the better you get. It seems intuitive enough, but when I first started writing fanfic again more consistently, I was frustrated how slow I felt. But the more I wrote, the faster I got. You start to get your groove and know your skills. Now cranking out 10k isn't so much an insurmountable task to do in a week. Ideas, plots, characters, world building...all of that got easier too. Practice really does make you better. So don't get frustrated if you're starting out and not seeing or feeling like you're at your best.

14. Any advice you’d like to share with new or aspiring writers?

This is a community. Fanfiction got a lot more fun to write the more friends I had to share it with - comment, share, kudo, reach out to people via DMs...it really is worth the experience.

15. What are your creative goals for 2025?

I'm going to finish up Treacherous Waters and then shift my focus to my Body Swap AU. I also want to explore some original writing in my free time.

Tagging (no pressure): @zenkindoflove @clarafae @sapphiresandgold @jsmelodies @shadowqueenjude @starsreminisce @bonecarversbestie @the-darkestminds @olenvasynyt

For the Christmas ask:

013. sitting down with some company to wrap all the christmas gifts, preparing for the big day.

With Elayna and Tyland!😃

🌙 * ― 𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐒: 𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐌𝐀𝐒 𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ( a collection of various settings for drabbles or prompts, or both! )

“Come on. At least give me a hint!”

“No.” Tyland doesn't even look up from the task at hand. Instead, he focuses on the Christmas card in front of him, one for each person. All the gifts are wrapped, but not by Tyland. Since he has the money to pay another person to do it, he may as well. The cards, however, are from him.

“Why not?” Elayna actually does whine. He hears the pout in her voice. He refuses to waver.

“Is it your gift?” He arches an eyebrow. Tyland’s pen scratches softly against the card.

“Well. No. Which is exactly why I don't see why it's a big deal.”

Tyland breaks. He lifts his gaze from the card to her. Elayna stands by the table, arms crossed over her chest. Her lower lip sticks out the slightest bit. The sight is almost comical, a grown woman pouting over a gift that isn't even for her. She tries her best to meet his eyes. Tyland stares evenly back at her.

“I'm not going to tell you.”

Mysteries drive Elayna crazy, but it isn't his intention to do so. This Christmas is their first official one together, and while Elayna's family knows him, it never hurts to make a good impression. Elayna's family means the world to her; she talks with most of her family two to three times a week, even the extended parts. Certainly, she calls her dad almost daily.

He wants them to like him. The few interactions he's had with them have been mostly about business. Tyland has no reason to suspect they harbor any ill will towards him. Every once in a while, Elayna mentions he's the first of her boyfriends her dad approves of, so it isn't as if he has any reason to suspect they don't like him. Still. The idea makes his gut twist in an uncomfortable way.

Elayna's pout shifts into a reproachful stare.

“Why not?”

“Because. We both know you will promise not to tell your dad what it is, but you will.” Elayna's expression falls some. Tyland sighs. “I know you it's because you get excited, but Elayna. I want this to be a surprise.”

Elayna presses her lips together. She turns her head away from him. Tyland’s heart sinks for a second; the fear he truly offended her creeps over him. Ironically, Elayna's small sniff eases his worries. The sound is beyond fake. She turns her head just enough to see his face.

“Fine. Guess you don't trust me.”

Elayna tries her best to sound truly sad and hurt, but the slight giggle and lift of her lips tells him otherwise.

“You're right. I don't.”

To sell his words, Tyland drops his gaze back down to the card on the table. Elayna lets out an appalled squeak. Tyland forces himself to keep his expression bland and neutral. Thankfully, keeping his gaze downcast helps hide the slight twitch of his lips.

“Oh, you did not just say that!”

Tyland keeps his mouth shut, eyes on the card in front of him. He presses his lips together. The sound of his pen fills the room. Elayna's eyes bore a hole into him.

“You're so mean to me!” Elayna grumbles. Instead of huffing off, she comes closer to him. She wraps one arm around him and rests her head on his shoulder. She smells like vanilla, bourbon, orange, and cinnamon. He also smells the hint of pine from earlier when she fussed over the Christmas tree.

Tyland turns his head. She leans forward a little bit to kiss him. Tyland lets out a small, satisfied noise.

“Can I at least see what you're writing?” Elayna puts her chin back on his shoulder. To her credit, she doesn't look down at the card.

“When you sign them, you can.”

“Oh, so they're coming from both of us? How romantic.” Her words lilt, but a genuine note of affection lingers in them. Elayna presses a kiss to his cheek. “I've never done joint cards before.”

Tyland reaches up with his left hand and threads his fingers through hers.

“It worries me you think the bare minimum is romantic.”

“It might be the bare minimum for you, but for most, it's more effort than they want to put in.” Elayna nuzzles the side of his neck. “You'll be fine, you know that, right? They already love you.”

Tyland rubs his thumb over the back of Elayna’s hand. He stays silent before sighing softly.

“I just want them to know you're alright.”

Elayna hums. She presses a kiss to the side of his neck.

“They know.” She murmurs. “They know you've got me.”

There was a great weight resting on Yuu; both figuratively and literally. On the figurative side, she had an essay due on the Monday, and she may have been putting it off for a little too long. Naturally that meant that the hour was late and she was stuck at her desk.

On the more literal side, a few minutes ago, her girlfriend had decided to rest her chin on Yuu’s shoulder, and bring her arms around in a low hug from behind. It probably wasn’t even that comfortable for Touko with the chair back between them.

“What are you doing,” said Yuu, too weary to sound really annoyed. In a way that was far too bright and chipper Touko replied.

“I’m just refilling my Yuu-energy.”

Yuu turned her head to give Touko a quick peck on the cheek before turning back to the accursed essay.

[ronearoundblindly]

When is the next story 🥺 and your amazing at writing . Please dont stop your my favorite writer

Um, so, a couple of things:

I don't know precisely which will be edited and ready first, but 83 Hours and Dignity's next parts are the closest to being done.

That said, just FYI, I have severe, lifelong depression, and I get that it sucks I had been updating so well and writing so much for a while, but the past month has not been kind. I'm literally watching follower numbers go down, engagement is down, and I thought doing random drabbles would keep the creative juices flowing. It kinda hasn't. I don't have any pride in the stuff written so far on my series, which utterly sucks because I think about how I planned for them to go and I was sooooo excited. It all feels flat and awful.

My conclusion is that it's basically impossible to write a happy ending when you honestly don't see how happy endings even exist.

I haven't abandoned anything, just to be clear. The work is just absolutely not ready. I am trying. I am trying so hard though, I swear to you.

I also cannot reiterate enough that my mind is fucking blown that someone thinks of me not only as an actual writer but their favorite. (EFF you, Grammarly, that is the correct 'their,' and I'm sick of your shit.) Seriously, I...it doesn't feel like I should be anyone's fave at anything when I am so often non-functional in daily life. There, that's a sneak peek into my brain 24/7. (Fine, I did screw up with a 'peak,' thank you, Grammarly.)

Since I've been so stuck with writing, I have tried to find more comfort in reading and supporting other writers, finding some new and awesome stuff to share. I know it's not the same as producing content, but it's the best I can do right now.

[borkthemork]

Given you amazing theories on what the Wu family situation could be like (one of the best and unique ones I've heard so far), how about one sorta focusing on Marcy and the relationship with her sister (and maybe parents) as a drabble request?

Hey, dude.

It's been a while since we talked. I wanted to give you the scoop on my daily life, since it's been — what — a year since we said stuff face-to-face? And might as well tell you something now that you're here.

I just finished my five years! Finally, after all the tears and dorm laundry, I am out of that place and onto somewhere cool. Really.

The board kept trying to delay me with all these counselors and mishaps and the whole major fiasco, but now that's out of the way, nothing's stopping me!

Like I said before, our family is going to get back another pair of shoes in the house eventually, but maybe that doesn't have to be the case? Not right now, at least. Because a lot of stuff happened during college. A lot of growing and realizing stuff, you feel me?

Remember her?

You know, her her?

Oh, what am I kidding, of course you know what I'm talking about. You saw her at my dorm two years ago. She kept going on about how I was being a dick because I kept bragging about how I definitely kicked her butt in those competition courtyards. I don't know why I'm even telling you this, I guess I'm just being nostalgic.

Well, so that same person who called me an affectionate dickhead wanted to plan something with me. She's one of the top grades. Scholarships love her, that kind of bizz. Okay, so, she wanted me to move in with her sometime after graduation since we have this plan of doing our own engineering projects, isn't that exciting?

Me and her, moving in. Sappy, sappy, junk like that. I can practically hear you laughing at me as we speak, but don't be surprised when I laugh at your wedding and embarrass you in front of your spouse.

Because I will do it. I will.

Alright, so we're getting off track here.

We got this plan going. It's not a good plan, it's still flimsy in making a Plan B situation if all else goes to shit, but we're doing really good in just this "honeymoon" phase of our talks. Cause, dude, she gets real passionate about it. It's cute.

I hope you can see our house one day. It'll be cool with neat roofing, awesome aircon, and I'll definitely get some anime posters somewhere in the place. You can pass by and say hello so you can be a nuisance. Or a jerk.

Yeah.

It'll be nice if we can just hang out with the robots. Babe always said that our lil robo guy would've loved to meet you someday, especially since he knows how to scavenge around for new parts like no one's business.

Remember the mall? We used to go there just to mess up the arcade games. You'd carry my toolkit and I'd just see what the pinballs can do as long as no one outed and banned us for "vandalism".

I'd also invite you to meet-ups at the local automation conferences. My professor is such a hot shot with those places, we practically felt like celebrities. Like the boba shop? With all those cool mint flavors and coffee flans? Everyone thought we were champs from chugging them whole, oh dude.

Don't you remember that? I do. I remember a lot of things because I'm great. I'm a great big sister. Yeah. Yeah, yeah...

And great big sisters remember all this stuff so you don't have to. Because apparently memory problems run in our family.

Mhm.

Because it's great to think about what we've done. I don't want to forget this stuff. I don't want you to forget this stuff.

I want to think that talking to you, right now — it sounds so stupid if I say it like this — is keeping me from forgetting.

Like I can finally stop blaming myself for being so stupid. And you're just laughing and reassuring me that I'm just being my loud, goofy self.

And you're not hurting anymore. That you're fine wherever you are.

But I don't know if it's working. I hope it is. I'm not religious? Am I religious? Ugh, and to think I got everything checked out.

I've been in this parking lot for an hour. Just talking to you. And to myself.

I don't know. I'm just sorry that I didn't take care of you more.

I just wish I had more time.

I should've said this stuff at the beginning but I don't think talking to you about morbid stuff at the start would've been the best. And now it's eleven p.m. and babe's probably worried now.

I can't blame her cause I'm just talking to myse—to you in front of the mall. I should've been home ten minutes ago.

You won't mind if I just go home now, right? I mean, I don't want to leave you alone, but I got work tomorrow and it's gonna be killing me, I guarantee it.

Okay.

Goodnight, Marce.

I love you.

2021 TUMBLR YEAR END REVIEW

rules ; post the top 5 works you're most proud of that you released this year (not necessarily your most popular), your top 4 current WIPs that you're excited to release in the new year, your top 3 biggest improvements in your writing over the past year, your top 2 resolutions (ways you wish to improve your writing/blog) for the new year, and your number 1 favorite line you've written this year!

I was tagged by @ressjeon and @lavienjin (hello babiesss) and I know I'm most probably late and most people have already done this BUT if you haven't gotten around to do so/if you'd like to: @hyunnows @knjsnoona @erotikkook @jimilter @faithalenora @tenderfrailty

sigh I don't even know what I posted in 2021 but here we go.

5 works i’m most proud of

If History is Dead: Tales of the Sea This was my first lengthy work, which is something I keep looking forward to. It's also one of the few works that I completely fell in love with the lore of, I also really liked the name and after writing it I decided that I wanted it to be a universe. I don't usually do plot when I do smexy works yet I am a goner for plot fics so having been able to incorporate it and see myself do it just made me really happy and boosted my confidence as a writer ngl.

Anti-Romantic Listen- this fic came to be from TXT's song cause ya girl was obsessed I just had to do it. I think the general plot of it was a first for me, and hopefully, I was able to deliver it nicely. It's also on the lengthier side of my work so I was really pumped about it.

Young Gods I'm a polyamorous fic enthusiast, yet I had never done a two-member fic that I felt like it was done nicely. I also LOVED the dynamic which plays around with their canon-compliant dynamic of boy-crush JK. I am really looking forward to dive more into a fantasy genre like this.

Zoom Call It's a drabble, I know. But the general idea of it and the scenario just seemed so fun to me, I had to do it. I discovered I liked to add bits of humour into my fics thanks to this one.

Mr President My precious 2021 baby, this fic took everything within me and plastered it on a tumblr post. The general idea of it was very scary to me, I wanted to do it all, while at the same time delivering a less fiction-like universe. I honestly thought I was being too ambitious and was going to fail miserably more than five times. I thought I wasn't going to make it. But I did and I'm so so glad I did. I love everything about it and hopefully, I'll keep delivering this quality content in the future.

4 current WIP’s i’m excited to release

Ohhh I'm excited for a lot of my WIP's, some of them are

VOGUE–a Hobi fic in which I have yet to decide whether he is a model or a fashion designer (it's going to be a theme for me this year, I know it)

If History is Dead: tales of time & If History is Dead: tales of heaven– a Namjoon and a Jimin fic accordingly, set in the IHID universe, Gods AU, where I hopefully will be able to wrap them all together and work on a major plot

Industry Baby– two words: Producer Yoongi.

A Ladybug inspired JK fic

The length of my works. It's no secret that I do a bunch of stuff on a daily basis but since I like writing I've kept up with short works, this 2021 served as an opportunity for me to cross that bridge into lengthier fics and I'll hopefully keep on going that way.

I stopped being scared. This is very vague, I know. But I stopped being afraid of mingling with other authors, of getting to know them and share our works. I stopped being scared of writing in other platforms like AO3. I stopped being scared of writing mxm content.

I'm focusing more on plot-heavy fics. It's no secret, I've been writing fanfiction for 10 years now (longer if you count me not posting it on the internet) When I was younger I was a VERY heavy plot writer, with lack of time (and an inner need to focus on the erotica genre) a.long with a writing burnout, I started to focus more on pwp but I've found my way back to plotted fics. I think.

2 resolutions

Write for yourself only, I don't think there was a time I didn't write for myself mainly, but it's easy to get lost in the blurred lines of it.

Make writing a priority. It's been a thing I enjoy doing but self sabotage myself not to (those 154 WIPs in my notes app are aware of it) I'm done with abstaining myself from doing things that I love.

A little Javier/you drabble.

Bad language, slight mention of smut, slight violence (talk your feelings out people). Reader being overwhelmed.

The List

Orange and red marbled across your vision as the sun hit your tightly closed eyes. "Come on cariño. You need to get up now. That's enough." Javier's voice was gruff as he drew back the curtains.

Your lead heavy limbs were suddenly tangled in your sheets as he sharply pulled them off you.

"What the fuck Peña?!" you spat with all the venom you could muster.

Suddenly, he was over you dragging you out of bed by your leg. His grip was bruising. The sensation was not unfamiliar to you. The situation however was, Javier had never laid a finger on you without your consent. With a harsh tug on your arm he pulled you to your feet.

"Javier, stop!" getting your footing, you managed to steady yourself enough to shove him hard in the chest. The action sent you both stumbling backward. Bracing yourself on your dresser you took in Javier's appearance. His shirt was creased, his hair mused with sleep, you wondered if he'd been there long. He'd let himself in and fallen asleep on you sofa before. At the time he'd said he came over to work out some tension but didn't want to wake you. You had suspected he just didn't want to be alone I his empty apartment.

His muscles visibly tense as he paced. "Fuck!" He ran his hand over his face as he cursed. "If I could fight or fuck out whatever it is inside of you that's doing this to you, it'd be fine. I am not the man to deal with this. I can't be what you need." His words thickened the air in the room. Whatever this was between you, this growing dysfunctional bond, that was the most Javier had ever spoken on it. It was a strange feeling, to have something made solid only to shatter in the same breath. As you composed yourself to move to the bathroom, Javier moved to blocked you. He didn't touch you but hovered so close that you swore you could feel him. "But I want to be." His hand tentively cupped your face. "Help me to understand beautiful."

Your mouth gaped for a second before you answered. "It's hard to.." beginning to brush him off, you saw the pleading look in his eyes, he really did want to understand.

"I'll try. Some times I just get so overwhelmed by demands. All this stuff with my dad's estate..."

He gently brushed the hair away from your face. "I understand it must be hard. You grieved for him years ago and now.."

"It's not that...we weren't that close. He was too sick to live, he was in so much pain. Now he's at peace. I've mourned and moved on. It's since my aunt decided to move out of his house. It's the phone calls, paperwork. It's too much for me to handle."

Javi's lips parted in disbelief. "But..we literally do that for a living. We wade through this bullshit daily. You do it all with ease. While dealing with the assholes we work with and goddamn Nacros."

"I know Javier!" you snapped." I told you it's hard to explain."

He held his hands up before gesturing for you to sit on the bed.

"It's like when things are busy and chaotic I can just immerse myself it in and get things done. When it's just a list of things to do, stuff I don't even want to do, it's just such a chore. It's feels like am going to suffocate under the weight of it."

Javier's lips pursed in thought for a moment. "Do you have an actual list?"

Puzzled you pointed to the note pad on your night stand. Reaching across you, he took it, glancing over it. "What can help you with?"

There was no judgement in his voice, no pity, just support. The note pad was soon dropped to the floor as you climbed into his lap, kissing him deeply.

"Is this another avoidance tactic?" he fake admonished, brown eyes filled with mock disappointment looking up at you straddling his lap. You smiled before pushing him back on the bed. He was right, it was. Only this time you weren't avoiding a list of chores, or avoiding looking at what causes this behaviour in you. Now you were avoiding looking at your growing feelings for him. You would, eventually, for now you would just add it to your list.
