На борту девица, попробуй не влюбиться Слух ласкает песни звон, ему лучше смириться На борту девица, он хочет утопиться Все готов отдать пират чтоб с ней губами слиться

Inspired by the song Проклятие Русалки (The Mermaid's Curse) by Green Apelsin

Translation: A girl on board, no avoiding falling in love The song's chime is euphony to his ears, he better stop resisting A girl on board, he wants to throw himself into the sea The pirate is ready to give up everything just to feel their lips touch

I got an e-reader and have been voraciously uploading fics and making covers for them. It's nowhere near the same level as bookbinding, but it brings me the same kind of delight in personalizing my fanfic library. Here are some of my favorites so far! Links to the fics under the cut. :D

(Also, it's perhaps worth noting that all of the cover art is royalty free and found on Unsplash; it's a great resource!)

Dirt - The Last of Us. Hands down absolutely THE best fanfiction for TLOU that I have ever read. This fanfic is canon in my eyes and I think everyone should give it a shot, even if they're not familiar with the game.

Autumnal - Misfits. Short and sweet Nathan/Kelly sickfic.

A Country You Forget - Red Riding. Focuses on Eddie Dunford; is a really nice glimpse into his life and I love seeing him (and RR!) getting some love. A little sad the author orphaned it; I would love to read more of their work.

A Cornstalk Fiddle - Devil Went Down to Georgia. I actually have only just started reading this fic, but I saw a post where someone had done an amazing binding of it and got curious. The writing so far is really good!

Big Red Tabby - The Mentalist. Patrick Jane + cat. What else is there you need? This one is just very cute.

Consider the Tumbleweeds - Wanted: Dead or Alive. Unfinished, unfortunately, and hasn't been updated since 2018. But it's also one of the most IC fics surrounding Josh and Jason that I have ever read and it reads just like watching an episode! Definitely scratches an itch, and I'm grateful that the author gave us two chapters of it.

🦇👻

Danny: haha I am dead yes this is very funny

Tim: *literal, intense flashbacks*

Dick: :DDD

Chapter seven of Wanted: Dead and Alive is live and it contains this ICONIC scene so like... Check it out if you would ;-;

[thatsprettylane]

Favorite thing about Wanted: Dead or Alive is that they aren’t afraid to let Josh be the butt of the joke. Just watched this idiot lose every cent he owned in a poker game and sadly eat a hard boiled egg at the bar because he couldn’t afford a drink.
