[faith-thee-slayer]

Buffy/Faith for the ship ask game? (But if you've already been asked that, then Fred/Gunn.)

buffy/faith: 1000% yes like it's a known fact at this point

idk where to even begin with what made me ship them, they just have so much to work with. the perfect enemies to lovers setup. the mirror selves meeting each other. the heartbreak and betrayal. the "things could've been different between us but they were also always doomed to turn out how they did." the "you are the only person in the world who understands me but i can't stand you." the attempted murder. the actual murder. the angst. the chemistry. i remember on my first ever watch of s3, i actually thought they were gonna kiss at some point because the tension was so palpable

favorite things about the ship: see the above, lol. i'm obsessed with how they don't realize how much the other cares about them. that's where so much of the tragedy takes place

i’m not sure if i have any unpopular opinions about them... i think for fuffy to successfully work, they’d have to get together sometime post-comics, like in their 30s. also i don’t believe that it was buffy’s fault for how faith turned out, i think that was sadly a series of events bound to happen

fred/gunn: YES

i can’t remember the specific episodes, but right around the middle of ats s3 when they become closer and start dating, i was sold. they are so precious. that one breakfast date they have where they look into each other’s eyes and place their hands on the bill is tooth-rottingly sweet

i love how gunn is usually a tough guy, and then soft only for fred. and how everyone calls gunn “gunn” but fred calls him by his first name. it’s simple, but tender

i don’t think this is an unpopular opinion but they could’ve easily got back together at some point, even after gunn killed that professor. (as if her relationship with wesley somehow made more sense...)

here

a little pylean oneshot because I am playing emotional chicken with the universe

bad things always happen here

not here exactly, though you think that someday that may change if the men follow you back here or the hounds catch your scent off the wind and then the cave becomes the place you die, but they won’t even leave you here. no, no, if one of the dogs or horses won’t eat your rotting flesh then they’ll throw you into a pit, but not the ones where the penitent go to apologize and redeem themselves.

penitent is a fancy word that comes to you when others will not, but it’s not one that comes up in normal conversation, not that you’re having much of that these days. out loud to yourself will do fine just to hear sound of a voice that isn’t calling you cow or shouting orders. in fact, it’s better not to hear other voices at all, so every thought and idea comes through the sounds in your own throat. some days you’re too tired to talk. others you spend convincing yourself of stories and dreams that are comforting but only meant to distract.

then there’s the math.

S C R S Q W R N

drgh ktrz vdrt yrkt’x

the sounds are harsh on your tongue, scraping enough to make you bleed, you think, but so are the tree barks from here and you have to eat those to survive, so maybe the key will be in one of these words, if they even are words. they mean something to the ones who held you captive, but they won’t work for you. not yet, at least.

∀(x, y ∈ A ∪ B; x ≠ y) x² − y² ≥ 0

you haven’t figured out the sentence of numbers that makes sense. these used to make sense, though maybe that other life was all just a dream, the way that the logic in dreams makes sense because your brain said that it does even if examined under a harsh scientific scope none of it in fact makes sense. a building full of books and you worked to sort the books and put them into places based on little numbers that defined the who, what, when, where, and why of the things. it sounds silly to think about here and now, and that a little card with your picture on it was the key to opening doors. why couldn’t this card open a door here, a door home?

Winifred Burkle

## / ## / ##

and numbers that must mean something to you. about you. the only way you can be certain this is you is that you often catch sight of yourself in the cave puddles, when the water stops undulating. undulating, that is another fancy word. you know  what it should mean, the void of significance in your mind knowing you know it but you don’t know why or what or how to explain it to someone else. the water needs to move, still water breeds bacteria. you wonder if your mind will ever be quiet like the still water

and will it fester and become unpotable? potent, portent, potential, portable, portal

so many words like a puzzle on the walls. numbers. symbols. math and letters. and maybe if you keep writing, one will be the door, and if you keep writing some more, one will be the key. to find that dream, to find something better.

because if you can’t find the door, this cave will be your tomb. you’ll die here, the same way you live here.

[sammysdewysensitiveeyes]

So, the choices were:

Fred Jones (Scooby Doo)

Fred Dukes/Blob (X-Men)

Freddy Kruger (Nightmare on Elm Street)

Fred Flinstone (Flinstones,obviously)

Winifred Burkle (Angel)

Fred Rogers, from Mr. Rogers Neighborhood

And somehow, SOMEHOW, we've wound up with a perfect split between the kind, gentle man from our childhoods (if you are American), and the most obnoxious (yet lovable) member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. An amazing clash of personalities.

Honestly, I think Mr. Rogers wouldn't mind sharing the winner's spot with Blob. He'd say, "Wow, Fred, it looks like a lot of people love you. And maybe seeing that love from others could help you to love yourself a little more. Wouldn't that be nice?"

I couldn't specify "fictional" this time, because I couldn't resist that last one.

My heart lives in Texas

[A late (and final) 12 days of Christmas fic]

Pairing: Fred x fem!reader

Request: Can you please write something with a female reader from a different country thats friends with and crushing on Fred and she can’t afford to go back to her home country to visit her family so Fred invites her to come to Texas with her to see Freds family or something?

Requested by: Anon

Warning: Mention of homophobia.

You had moved to the U.S. from your home country a year or so ago. It had been quite an adjustment at first. Angel investigations had taken you on once they realised you were fluent in several demon-languages. You had studied extensively when you lived back home.

You arrived at a similar time as Fred returned from Pylea. You bonded instantly. Fred was a sweetheart, and you adjusted back into life together. She leaned on you, she trusted you instantly. There was a calming aura around you and ever since she returned she leaned on you. You became close friends.

You both moved into Angel’s hotel and spent most days and nights together. You whispered through your traumas, comforting each other. You would often share a bed, cuddling together. So close with her arms draped around you.

You told each other it was platonic, it was because you needed each other. Cared about each other. You could only sleep so long as the other was in bed beside you.

But you both had feelings growing inside. Such deep and unending feeling they made you dizzy. Neither of you spoke of the way you felt, because things may change. And change frightened you both. Because you had gotten comfortable in your routine. In the way that you lived now, together.

Your friends tried to nudge you into speaking about your feelings, everyone knew that you were in love. It was plain as day.

Angel had asked you to come into his office. It was coming up to Christmas and everyone was discussing their plans in the main room. Fred was talking about going back to her parent’s house which is something she hadn’t been able to do in a long while.

“Y/n, I’m only asking you in here ‘cause we’re friends… right?” he added that on the end a little unsure and you nodded with a little smile.

“Right!” You assured him with a small smile.

“I’m not great with advice, but I just wanted to say somethin’. If you, uh, don’t mind” He started, you and Angel had become close and he wanted his friends to be happy, “You and Fred, you’re meant for each other. I’ve seen a lot and it’s not often you find something like you have with her”

“You can all tell, can’t you? That I like her?”

“We can tell you love each other. Go for it, at least some of us deserve to be happy” He murmured, alluding to the low mood of the rest of the team and himself.

“I don’t want to push her into anything… she’s special” You said softly. Angel nodded, staring into the distance as if he knew the exact feeling you harboured intimately. You were about to speak, offer him a friendly ear if he wanted to talk when there was shouts for you both in the other room

Another case. Another demon to fight.

You managed to complete the case after a lot of hardship. The demon had terrorised the hotel, taking all of the decorations and incinerating them in the melee.

When you were all sat around, exhausted surrounded by piles of smoking ash, most from vampires and the rest from the Christmas trees, Cordelia commented that at least you had the holidays to look forward to. Angel had insisted everyone take time off.

You were very quiet at this. You had thought about going home but it just wasn’t possible this year. The cost of tickets and the guilt you’d face should something horribly go wrong in California.

Fred saw you thinking, your brow furrowed slightly and she worried. She slipped her arms, looping them with your own as she leaned against your shoulder. Your eyes kept closing, you were blinking slowly. She whispered, telling you it was time to go to bed.

She led the way, taking your hand in hers as everyone watched you go. They understood and had stopped commenting on your affection. They had all silently agreed to let you figure it out naturally.

You slid into bed and she got in beside you. Your arms were open for her as they always here. She cuddled up to you, settling in her usual place. The space between you felt smaller and smaller each night.

She spoke softly, recounting her day as you managed to stay awake long enough to speak your mind too. She asked then, after a moment of silence what was troubling you. About the season.

And you explained, near poured your entire heart out about all your emotions. You were suddenly wide awake and retelling every worry and anxiety you had over leaving and returning home.

You couldn’t bare it if it had changed at all and yet if it was the same it would perhaps be harder to return. Los Angeles was your adopted home now, you wanted to see everyone but the cost was too much and she frowned.

You didn’t wish to be alone but you weren’t able to go. You couldn’t explain it any other way.

As you slept, she started thinking about her own thoughts. She had been reluctant to leave you, she had felt torn between her family Christmas and spending time with you. As the light of dawn started to filter through, she made a decision.

Once she realised you couldn’t go home for Christmas it wasn’t even a question that you would come with her. She had bought the tickets without thinking and insisted that she couldn’t celebrate without you there. You meant too much.

She of course gave you the choice, but you didn’t even have to think about it. You said yes, instantly.

You left together on the plane. You touched down on Christmas Eve. You felt like you might see Santa himself as you flew through the sky. It was a wonderful sight and she held your hand almost the entire way. She gushed and gave you her entire family history as you made your way there.

You went straight to her parent’s house. They had seen her since she returned from Pylea but not very often. They were so excited that she was coming for Christmas.

You walked over the threshold and were immediately greeted by her parents. They presumed you were dating already by the way she spoke about you. Fred had come out already when she was younger and her parents were so lovely about it.

“Aw, y’all look so cute together!” Her mother smiled wide and hugged you both at the same time.

“Mom, it’s not like that” There was a little glint in her parents eye as they exchanged a look at her words. It was only a matter of time, in their eyes. Fred then walked towards her father smiling, “Hey Dad”

She hugged her Dad as you smiled at them both. They both embraced you as if you were already family. They were so friendly and so down to earth - you loved them. And luckily, they absolutely loved you.

You had an evening meal. In the Burkle house, the Christmas Eve meal was almost more important than the one the next day. Because it was usually the three of them, making it more intimate with the extended family arriving tomorrow. Apparently there was a lot of them. Her Mom had been working hard to cook and her father had laid the table for you all.

You set your bags away and washed up before you ate. You smiled at Fred’s childhood home before you descended the stairs again and sat around the table while Mrs Burkle served up. You complimented the way the house was decorated and had her mother almost blushing at your words.

As the meal went on, there were plenty of subtle prodding to see what kind of relationship you were truly in.

“We’re so pleased to finally meet you, Y/n. Fred has said so much about you on the phone” Her father nodded as he chewed on his meal.

“You know our neighbours down the street have two adopted children now. Isn’t that wonderful? They’re amazing Moms” Fred’s Mom continued to gush as Fred shifted slightly at her words despite her best intentions. She then leaned into the table a little more to say to you, “Our Winifred has always been such a caring soul, we’re glad she’s found someone just as kind”

“Oh, thank you Mrs Burkle. This meal really is amazing” You smiled as Fred slipped her hand under the table, resting her hand on your thigh. She kept it there through the rest of the meal, rubbing her thumb every so often. She wanted contact with you, she didn’t want to be away for you for a moment.

After the meal ended, you made sure you assisted Fred’s Mom and helped clear away the dishes.

“And she’s polite too!” You heard her whisper too loud to Fred before she followed you into the kitchen. It made you smile, even if you hadn’t managed to speak to Fred about it alone that at least her family thought you were good enough for her daughter.

You helped wash up and engaged Fred’s Mom in conversation while you assisted her. She made you really smile. You turned to leave, going to find Fred, your heart a magnet to hers. You couldn’t bare to be apart. But her mother took you by the hand, telling you that you are part of her family. That you would always be welcome here.

She also warned you not to mind any of the extended family tomorrow if they say anything rude about you and Fred. In fact, she promised they would be sent out of the house quicker than you could say Happy Christmas.

You smiled at the floor, you really did feel like one of them already. She squeezed your arm again before nodding and letting you go and find your Fred.

You stayed in the living room with her parents for a while before retiring to her childhood room. They provided a camp bed for one of you on the floor, but nobody in the house was convinced it was going to be used that night.

Fred had an idea, she wanted to show you something she would do when she was younger. She opened her balcony. It was only small but she laid blankets out so that you could stargaze together. She rested against the wall and she gestured for you to join her, which meant you were now sitting between her legs. She wrapped you in a light blanket and you nestled together despite it not being that cold.

You and Fred sat together, the cool breeze was welcome. You leaned back, your head resting against her chest. She stroked your hair softly before sliding her hands down to hold yours.

“Your Mom thinks that we’re dating” You said softly, your words so light they danced away with the low breeze that whistled around you. Your hands weaved between each other as you leaned further back against her.

“Mhm, she does that with every friend I’ve had since grade school” Fred chuckled, which was true. But, her Mom had a lot more reason to think so this time.

“She’s going to fight your homophobic relatives for us” You chuckled.

There was a silence. Fred shifted under you slightly. You moved up to sit and turned to look at her. You worried that you had said too much, spoken of it as if it were laughable. You hadn’t meant it that way at all.

She looked down slightly, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear as she realised what was coming. You could easily hurt her here. Tell her that this wasn’t what she hoped it was.

But, of course you would never do that.

“Fred, I haven’t said anything because I didn’t want to push you, after everything you’ve been through” You began your speech and shuddered despite the lack of cold, these were words you had practiced in your mind for such a long time it didn’t feel real that you were saying them now, “I love you and the biggest gift that you could give me this year would- would be if you would be my girlfriend?” You asked, your voice caught in your throat at the end.

Her eyes shone, watering with all of this emotion. It was made even more prominent in the moonlight. She couldn’t form words, she just nodded yes vigorously. You embraced, wrapped around each other on the balcony, a tear falling from her eye now. This was all she had ever wanted. You pressed your lips to hers, only briefly, there would be a whole night and beyond for more. This moment was yours. And you were going to cuddle under the stars once more.

You held her so tightly, laying her down. You were flat on your back with her tucked into your side now. You couldn’t take your eyes off her now, the stars would be nothing compared to her.

She whispered that she would stargaze at night, hoping that her soulmate would be looking up at the stars too, wherever they were. That one day, she would return to this balcony with the one she loved and share blankets this way. That one of the first weeks, when you had first starting sharing a bed she had pictured watching the stars with you.

You spent the rest of the holiday period, and beyond, exploring your romantic relationship. She took you around the places she used to frequent. You both struggled to leave, this place would be special to you both know. It was perfect and you swore to her from that day that a piece of your heart would always live with hers in Texas.

[spuffybot]

Ok but like let me tell you more about why the found family vibes on Angel get me every time.

This group of troubled people with so much family baggage managed to build a home together. With trust and love.

Cordelia, for all her privilege never felt like she belonged. Her family didn’t really care about her. The cordettes didn’t really know her. The Scoobies were the closest she ever got to having friends but pride (and Xander’s betrayal) kept her from ever truly letting them in. She only ever had herself to rely on.

Wes has spent his whole life drowning under the expectations of a father who will never be satisfied. His one driving force in life was to prove himself, and he failed. The Council didn’t want him. The scoobies didn’t want him. Faith didn’t want him. He’s probably felt alone for his entire life.

Angel literally spent 100 years isolated and cut off from the world, drowning in guilt. Before that he was an angry, lonely young man who was a disappointment to his family and was killed before he ever got a chance to change. As a vampire he did horrible things. He tried to find redemption with Buffy only to destroy her and himself. He doesn’t think he’s worth saving.

Gunn believes it’s him against the world. Losing his sister was losing his last lifeline, his last bit of hope. He doesn’t know how to be the leader his crew needs and he doesn’t know where he fits in the world. He’s smart and capable in a world designed to tear him down.

Fred is deeply traumatized. Her experiences not only isolated her from her family, friends, and home, but they forced her to wall off her mind in order to survive. She can barely function at times and doesn’t know how to exist in a world that was lost to her for 5 years.

This band of misfit toys somehow manages to find one another, rally around a mission to help people, and slowly become one another’s support systems. This group has seen one another through good and bad and they would die for each other in a heartbeat, but not without a fight.

I love their interactions, their family dinners, they way they bicker and fight and look out for one another.

The show has SO MANY FLAWS but the group dynamic and love was not one of them.

tagged by @rawrkinjd, thanks Rawr!

What is your total word count on AO3?

414,450

How many fandoms have you written for?

I've only publicly posted fic for The Witcher and Good Omens. But I have some Supernatural hiding on my gdrive.

What were your top 5 fics by kudos?

Posada Remix

I Lied

Paying Attention

Marbles

Uncommon

Do you respond to comments - why, why not?

Yes! That's my favorite part.

What's your fic with the angsty-est ending?

Maybe Marbles? (Geralt amnesia fic), it ends with Geralt and Jaskier deciding to stand by each other no matter what comes. But notably, it does not end with Geralt regaining his memories. I just like it when characters decide that their pasts or memories don't define them. But I know for some people, that may not have been a perfectly 'happy' ending.

Do you write crossovers?

I've written one crossover between Supernatural and Angel. I shipped Charlie Bradbury with Winifred Burkle. It was fun. Oh! And Posada Remix is a Witcher show/book crossover fic (inter-dimensional travel, portal adventure) if that counts.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

I've received strenuous criticism. Annoyed objections. Since I write a lot of Jaskier, the (very passionate) part of fandom that feels (very passionately) that he shouldn't be popular, or that he is idealized by the fandom, contacts me directly to air their grievances and to correct any related failings on my part. It is about as fun as it sounds.

Have you ever had a story stolen?

Someone took I Lied, ran it through Google Translate, and slapped it on Wattpad in awkward Google-fied-German. Because of Wattpad content restrictions, they cut it off literally right before Geralt and Jaskier had sex. The commenters were like W T F why would you stop it THERE?? lmao (I had it taken down)

Have you ever had a fic translated?

That was the only time.

What is your all time favourite pairing?

It is legitimately difficult to narrow it down for the witcher fandom. Geralt x Eskel probably hits everything I love best. Childhood best friends -> lovers. Long, epic relationship with devotion and loyalty. That's my shit. But I also love Geraskier, Jaskier/Eskel, and so many others. Here are two rarepair rec posts where I flail about the others. 1 and 2.

For non-witcher...my all time favorite couple is either Mulder x Scully, or Crowley x Aziraphale (Good Omens).

What is a fic you would like to finish but don't think you ever will?

I have a fic started on my gdrive where Jaskier is hired to spy on Filavandrel because the elves are threatening to take back Dol Blathanna. While on assignment, he finds out some shocking news about his parentage that throws all of his political loyalties (and everything he knows about his identify and family) into question. There is also Geralt, Ciri, and a lot of subplots. But I just have TOO MANY wips and TOO MANY ideas, so I don't think I will ever finish or post it.

Writing strengths?

I don't know, really, as far as the finished product. I put a lot of passion into what I write, a lot of love for the characters, and respect for the readers. I hope that shines through.

Writing weaknesses?

I'm slow asf. People probably think I'm neglecting wips that take forever to update. But I write almost every day. That is just how long it takes me. I used to post faster, but that was because I was stuck in the house during lockdown in front of my laptop writing 8-9 hours every day. I am back at work now and no longer have time to do that. Now I write like 1-3 hours most days.

Oh, I also want to improve my prose. My metaphors need work. And I want to get better at writing sex scenes.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages?

I have put Elder in my fics, if that's what this means?

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Supernatural. But none of that is finished or posted. So Witcher.

What's your favourite fic?

Of mine? Probably The Song of Geralt? I think its my best work and there's so much feeling in it. But it's in first person, so people tend to click out of it pretty quickly. You can tell that by the kudos rate. But the comments by people who do read it are lovely.

I also reread It's Hard to be the Bard (Jaskier x Eskel soulmate fic) fairly often because it feels a little bit healing for me? Which is, I guess, the point.

Anyone who wants to do this, please feel free to do it! I'll tag a few, but please don't feel pressured. Also, if you've already been tagged, I'm sorry... @beginte @kueble @dapandapod @alllthequeenshorses @kushielsmercy
