Do your homework

🍄 Steve or ✨ Eli, please? (But please no crushed/exposed skulls)

Got a couple different Steve requests before this so here's Eli!

✨ - Glittery blood

don't mess with stuff from extraterrestrials made of light, dude, there might be some consequences on your fleshy biology

[escape-from-arcadia]

Since you're taking drawing requests, how about Claire crying and Toby and/or Jim is trying to comfort her?

Tried to be a bit more loose with this one.

Was listening to "My Friends" by Oh Wonder because:

Oh my friends I am heavy Can I beat within your heart? Can I bleed within your love? Oh my friends

359. Sleepy Skulls (The Locked Tomb)

Title: Sleepy Skulls

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/53290231

Creator: YellowMagicalGirl

Work Type: Fic

Fandom: The Locked Tomb

Rating: Gen

Pairing: Gideon Nav/Harrowhark Nonagesimus

Word Count: 673

Warnings: Canon-Typical Past Abuse

Number of comments: 2

Completion Status: complete

Short summary/description: Harrow tries to carry Gideon to bed. Tries is the operative word here.

Snippet:

At least she had the sense to push the half-eaten plate of food out of the way before she passed out at the table. You know the position will hurt her neck and shoulders in the long run. You know she's done the same for you before - how many times has she carried you to bed after a long night of studying? There are just two issues in this. The first is the fact that you haven't taken your girlfriend's advice. You have what she calls weak noodle arms. The second is that you're eye level with Gideon's chest. This is only on rare occasion something enjoyable (not that you'll ever admit it in the light of day), and Gideon passing out at the table when you have a perfectly good bed is not one of those occasions.

Title: All These Thorns

Pairing: Utena/Anthy

Fantasy AU

Ever since she was a little kid, Utena's only wish was to become a prince. To be the kind of hero that saves the day, who brings hope to people. That's the reason she became a knight, the goal she's been chasing since the death of her parents.

But she's also heard, ever since she was young, that she could never just "become" a prince. For starters, because she doesn't have a single drop of royal blood in her veins. Not to mention, she's a girl. Utena, of course, has never cared about any of that stuff. She will become a prince, no matter what!

Until one day, destiny seems to strike. She hears of this legend, this tale, about a princess sleeping deep inside an abandoned tower. They say the tower was once guarded by a powerful dragon, but the princess' curse is so deep and so ancient that the even the dragon died guarding its prey, its body turning to thorns.

It's obvious, then. If Utena can rescue that princess, if she can end that terrible and forgotten curse, she will be just like her prince. The kind of prince who saves princesses when they need it most. The kind of prince who breaks curses. The kind of prince who kills dragons and witches.

Things, however, are not always what they seem.

13 for the fanfic asks?

answered here already!

Fanfiction Writing Asks

[spacelasagna]

this is a call-out post @yellowmagicalgirl

I dare you to write that fic. I double-dare myself to draw a fanart for it. I'm already sketching more things, preparing, gathering my strength. One day, you won't be able to resist.

Just according to keikaku.

Flamingo?

Flamingo - would you say you’re clingy in relationships and friendships?

I try not to be. In the distant past I was made painfully aware of how little my company was desired in certain relationships, and I didn't have my first meaningful friend until I was like 15, so all that has impacted me up to now that I think the best sentiment anyone can have for me is tolerate me. I know this isn't true, but it's not really easy to work it through, especially without therapy, so I try to be as less clingy as possible so to not drive people away. I have no idea if it works, lmao.

Send me pink themed asks!

[happi-tree]

Fun fact: I am slowly learning to go from "is there even any coffee left in there" to "lots of milk and/or sugar". I am learning to stomach a mocha bc grad school makes me sleepy but there is no sleep to be found 😅

OOF yeah I feel you on the exhaustion stuff. When I was super tired in undergrad I'd add a blonde shot to whatever drink I got and it had the advantage of keeping me Very Awake and the disadvantage of making me so jittery that I felt like I was on the fucking MOON and also giving me mad anxiety but the drink itself didn't taste super different so? Make of that what you will I guess??? There was also a few times where I was working multiple days in a row at my seasonal college job with maybe 3 or 4 hours of sleep so after the first day of work I'd drive to the store and get one of those canned Starbucks Tripleshots for the next day. MUCH less anxiety-inducing but that may just be bc I was constantly moving around at work and not just staying still and studying lmao. Also I will say that they did taste Very Strongly of coffee, so perhaps not the best option for you atm.

Director’s commentary on "A bright future so it seemed (but that light grew a little less bright)"?

Ohh okay this was a fun one for me because it was mostly self projecting, but I really loved this line.

“Not to mention her parents, the studying they’d make her do, the studying she insists she doesn’t need.”

I know a big thing with being a “gifted kid” can be that even though the thought process/pressure is really unhealthy, the reward starts to become protocol. You feel good at being successful and perfection is just the way it is. Things will work out, because you’re putting in the work to be perfect. People are saying, “hey, there might be all this pressure but look at the reward!! this is what you deserve!! this is all you are and all you ever need to be.” And as time goes on, it becomes normalized.

And I really wanted to add the shock factor of Claire feeling like her identity, her perfection is slipping through her hands with no warning. She shows some rebellion through the course of the show, but at the same time she’s doing the work. (She’s being pressured, but this is her deserved reward.) And when that ideal is tested through the show (and to compare the show and the fic: with studying), she’s angry. They did this to her, and she likes it now. You said, this is who I am. I did the assigned work; you gave me the assigned reward and this is not in the deal.

Until she gets her grade back, finds out she’s slipped too far. Her protocol, identity, perfection, success, has been taken. And when you remove all of the layers that everyone has stressed is the most important part of her, all you have is a failure.

Which ninja turtle is most likely to become a TMA avatar, and what would they be an avatar of?

oh my god the way any version of donnie would become an avatar of the eye SO FAST like avatar of the eye speedrun aksldjhf

although aksljdfh ok so I'm not gonna do a WHOLE SITUATION for tmnt like i did with toa because I do not have the time but like within the context of rise of the tmnt i have thought about what entity they would be avatars for especially after the events of the movie

like raph could be flesh donnie could be either flesh or buried mikey could be desolation and leo would be end

although i am so interested to hear what other people think about this because as can be seen by uuuuhhhhhhhhhh the pages and pages and pages i have written for my tales of arcadia tma au i absolutely LOVE making the blorbos avatars

Title: Stars falling into the sea

Pairing: Krel and Toby (your choice of romantic or platonic)

When a shooting star streaks across the inky black, you wish on it... maybe something will happen, though stars never seem to care if they do. Toby's wishing star just so happens to nearly crash into the very boat he and his marine biologist colleagues are on- and sinks into the reefs below. Taking a dive to survey the damage done to the landing zone, Toby finds wreckage, and so happens to see something- some one, reaching out for help.

send me a title/pairing for a summary of a fic i'll never write

Short summary/description: After the Lonely, John and Martin go to Martin's flat. John makes a mistake

Snippet:

John squeezed his eyes shut, and when he opened them, he focused on the color of the door so his mind wouldn’t wander with unwanted thoughts. It was a mulberry color, a very un-yellow that John felt was comforting for a door. It wasn’t a door that wasn’t supposed to be here. He wasn’t sure what he would do if the Distortion showed up right now. Helen had refused to help, and John still didn’t know why. He just wanted Martin to be safe, and even though Peter Lukas was dead, Martin wasn’t safe. Hopefully Martin wasn’t afraid of John. John hoped that Martin enjoyed the color of his door. John didn’t ask, though, he just let Martin push the door open and lock it behind them. A lock wouldn’t be able to stop the Hunters. It could at least stop Elias, no, Jonah, based upon the tape that John had listened to. He had listened to it over and over, just to listen to something Martin had said that hadn’t been part of a Statement. “I’m going to go change,” Martin mumbled as he walked towards a hallway. “Get the sand off my trousers.”

🎉how often do you celebrate completing & posting a work? how often do you give yourself the credit/validation that you seek from others when you post? (if you don't, you should!)

Thanks so much for asking!

Normally when I complete a new work, I think it's the best thing I've ever written for like a week, and I end up reading my own work over and over because I'm so proud of myself.

I tend to have a hard time thinking of myself as a writer, but when I do actually finish a work or post something, it doesn't feel quite as much of a stretch to call myself a writer.
