Connor still thinks this is a stupid idea.

Obviously, it has to happen. The Graveyard’s a hell of a ghost town, hence the name, but Connor’d rather die than see the dang Juveys running through the streets like they own it. And maybe Connor will die for the place after all, because the only plan they’ve got is to string together a team of convicts and outlaws, trigger-happy idiots and honest to God cowboys, and fight off the Juveys. If they’re still breathing long enough to have a drink after, it’ll be a win in Connor’s book.

Still– what a team! Risa must be out of her mind to think these sorts of polar opposites would work together. The few (okay, many) times he’s complained, she’s silenced him with a single look. For this plan to be anything but suicidal, they need people with a wide range of strengths. So she says, at least, white hat reflecting the sun around her head like she’s a damn angel.

Connor certainly looks at her like she’s an angel, even despite what he knows about her– the bounty hunter, running from the law since she was a kid. Just like he did. If there’s one thing all of them in this plucky band of sharpshooters have in common, it’s that they ran off young and never came back, figuring their best future would be found somewhere on the road. Maybe it was and maybe it wasn’t, but they’ve become good riders and better shots, and Connor would say that’s better than growing old on a front porch somewhere anyway.

That’s all they’ve got in common, though. Feels like it, at least. What else could connect Hayden, the printer of the revolutionary newspaper that’s gotten him kicked out of a fair share of towns, or Roland, whose fingers keep twitching towards his pistols? How else are Lev, a former preacher’s son ‘til the fire and brimstone made him sick, and Starkey, a fuse ready to blow, possibly similar?

A love for risk, that’s what. Or, more pessimistically, none of them have any home waiting anymore. If you can’t go back, you go forward. Into the arms of bullets, maybe. Connor looks around at his band of outlaws and thinks– one day, when they win this fight, there might be a place for them after all.

✤ Kanna

✤ - a memory of love

It was during a rough time.

    Her brother’s family- The only family that seemed to understand her. They no longer were with them. Yasuhiro was missing...declared dead. And she had thrown herself into some terrible habits. She was out partying whenever she could get a chance. A bit of makeup and a change of clothes and no one was the wiser. Inoue would accompany her so it didn’t seem too bad.

Then she met this guy.

    “Hey there cutie”

He showered her with compliments and light touches. It seems like a haze though through her drunken memory. What she recalled though was being cornered outside by the guy while outside smoking. And his advances.

But seconds after his lips crashed against hers forcefully they were just as quickly thrown off and she was pulled against a familiar chest.    “Try that crap again and I’ll do much worse than knock your teeth out.”

Looking up she saw her friend growl as he brandished a knife as the fucker he just laid out. The poor sap looked pissed and terrified of this high schooler that had just sucker punched him. Running away. 

   He will be back though. Probably just off to find his back up.

“Kanna, are you okay?”

In that moment, maybe it was just the city lights glaring in the distance. But he seemed to glow and while she always acknowleged he was handsome, it was like she was seeing him again for the first time. And she couldn’t help the tears that started to roll down her cheeks as she buried herself against his chest.

“Daichi I was so scared. How did you know?”

          “Heh, isn’t that why you bring me along?” he says patting her back

In that moment she realized, she hadn’t lost all of the people that loved her and understood her. Someone had been right by her side for quite a while now...and he may not love her romantically.           But in that moment she knew she was in love with Daichi Inoue.......

Jimin has been having a crush on his flatmate’s (Hobi) classmate (Jungkook) from street dance course ever since the beginning of university year. After months of torment, he confided in Hobi who confidently urged him to confess. Though nervous, Jimin walked up to Jungkook soon after.

“I have something to tell you. Um…it might sound strange. The truth is I…ah, how to say this…uh…” he kept babbling, distracted by Jungkook’s confused face and his own heart beating rapidly against his ribs. “I…I have something to confess…and that is–I LIKE HOBI-HYUNG!”

Jimin held his breath for a second, eyes opening wide as he wondered if he’d heard right. Jungkook seemed equally surprised.

“I just…I was wondering if…you could help me out…telling him,” he continued mechanically, a part of him dissociating and wondering what the heck was happening.

“Um…sure,” Jungkook mumbled, “but why not tell him just like that? You’re flatmates, right? There’s gotta be tons of occasions to do it.”

“That…uh…it’s hard for me to say it…so directly. And I don’t know…how he feels about me…”

“Ah, I get it. Sure, I’ll help with whatever you need.”

“T-hank you… Ah, I need to go now… Thanks for listening to this.”

“No problem.”

Jungkook watched Jimin head further and further away with a rather wobbled walk. A deep sigh escaped his lips as his heart contracted painfully in his chest. The truth was Jungkook has been interested in Jimin ever since Hobi introduced them and when he called him over he’d hoped Jimin was going to confess having feelings for him. What to do now? He was no match for Hobi. He dragged his feet to the bus station, crying bitterly on the inside.

When Hobi returned from classes that night he asked how the confession went. By the time Jimin finished the unfortunate tale, Hobi was crouched on the sofa, a loud laugh bouncing around the walls.

“This is so funny, oh my Goddd!!!” he barely squeaked a sentence.

“Please stop,” Jimin asked flatly, covering his flustered face with both hands and slowly shaking his head disapprovingly. “I can’t face him anymore.”

“I can’t believe you said thattt!!!! AHAHAHAHA THIS IS HILARIOUS I CAN’T BREATHE!!!!”

“Hyung, this is serious what do I do now??”

“Just go back and tell him the truth!” Hobi invited him after calming down, pointing at the front door.

“Tell him what?! ‘Oh haha sorry about that I meant you’??”

“Exactly,” his flatmate nodded nonchalantly. “People make mistakes when they’re nervous, it’s normal.”

“Do you think he’ll believe me?? He’ll just think I’m messing with him!”

“So you wanna leave things like this?”

“No…”

“Then just tell him. You’re a brave guy, I trust you can do it.”

Jimin went to bed that night with a heavy heart, full of young love concerns that torment all young lovers. The next day Hobi went to his street dance course like usual. After it ended and everyone had left, Jungkook suddenly asked him if he liked Jimin and he remembered what happened the other day, which in turn triggered his giggles.

“Why would you think that?” he asked Jungkook in return, barely containing his laughter.

“Dunno,” Jungkook shrugged with a pouty face, “you two seem really close. I was just wondering.”

“Jimin talked to you yesterday?” Hobi continued on an assuming tone, staring him down.

Jungkook’s eyes rose to look at him, big and surprised.

“Yeah.”

“It’s not me,” he decided to clarify with a witty smile.

“…What do you mean?” Jungkook’s eyes now seemed to want to pop out of his eye sockets.

“He got nervous and just said that randomly. He actually likes you. That’s what he wanted to say.”

Jungkook stared blankly for several moments, trying to process this information.

“Hyung, are you making fun of me?”

“Noo!” Hobi laughed, surprised by his unconvinced yet hopeful expression. “I’m serious, really, he was all worried last night, saying he can’t take it back anymore ‘cause you won’t believe him. You should go talk to him, I don’t know if he’ll gather the courage to bring this up again.”

“W-What am I supposed to say??”

Wow, they were so much alike he was starting to feel like he’s having déjà vus.

“Just go tell him you know the truth.”

“Hyung, don’t play with me like this… Are you serious?!”

“Yes, I’m serious!! Aaahh, you two are so annoying! Go talk to him, already! Go-go!”

And without further ado he grabbed his towel from the backpack and went to do his stretching exercises, tilting his head to the side in a frustrated gesture. As he was relaxing his leg muscles, the sound of rushed footsteps echoed through the empty practice room. His eyes rose just in time to see Jungkook sprint out through the door, letting it fling dramatically before closing. Hobi shook his head again, only one word coming to mind:

‘Idiots.’

(inspired by jazzy's 'aggressively plays matchmaker' tag, only it's hobi unwillingly plays matchmaker and he's thrown aback by their awkwardness xD)

hey so um you guys, my homies, brochachos, the loves of my life,,,,

i was thinking. i might not be writing like at all anymore. fanfiction just isn’t my typa ish anymore and i have no motivation or inspiration to do anything, lately. (literally i’ve been like a blank white wall for the past 6 months, it’s no use in trying when all i do is get frustrated that i can’t get anything good out of me). maybe i’ll still do blurb nights and little drabble here and there because i still need my tommy boy, but i hope y’all understand that this is something i’ve been considering for a really long time.

quitting fanfiction writing has been in the back of my mind for at least a year. and it wasn’t until the very start of summer that i was just like ... nah fam, gotta zayn ✌🏼 fanfic is controversial in so many ways to me because people have been making me feel horrible about it since i started writing 1D fanfiction in 6th grade ( aaahh, the good old carrot days :’) ). but basically i’m just fed up with nothing happening in my brain, i’m fed up with how people treat me because i write it, i’m fed up with the lack of feedback i get, i’m fed up with comparing myself to others and this ongoing self-loath i feel every time i pick up a pencil or sit in front of a computer. i’m just fed up with trying to please people who are never happy with the best i can do.

it may sound selfish, and yeah, i agree, me quitting fanfic is pretty selfish. but i need a break from tumblr, tumblr has already taken a break from me (i’ve lost like 200 followers in the past week and seriously my feed is so dead and boring). i consider myself a pretty selfless person and i’m finally doing this one thing for me and not for anyone else and i really really hope you guys can understand :)))

also don’t get tRiGgErEd because i’m using these tags please:))) i need the word to spread so people stop asking me if i’m writing anything or if i’m close to being done with a fic or when a fic is coming out. anyway, thanks for being readers and enjoying the absolute shit i make

[chenziee]

Do you have any ereri fic recommandation? I read the 6th ward yesterday (and I'm still slowly moving on, it was so sad ;-; but in a weird way it made me accept Sasha's death in the manga more easily, and it's all good), so preferably a long one please. Thank you for being awesome!

Aaahh, thank you ;__;

Hmm, I have a few fic recs but I’m not sure what you have and haven’t read so I’ll just throw in whatever has stuck with me through all these years and I can think of off the top of my head meaning these might be fics that have been recced a million times over already because they are good. If you want more/something else, let me know :)(On that note, I’d like to direct you to @fuckyeahererifanfic who have a large and beautifully categorized database of ereri fic to fit any specific needs

I’m only going to link COMPLETED fics, because I tend to only read those AND I have a particular track record of fics being abandonded after I pick them up and now have trust issues but if you want some in-progress fics, I can rec some too.

The Little Titan Cafe by @pocketsizedtitan (66k words): Modern, coffee shop AU and the cutest thing.

Just another cliche AU in which Eren works as a barista in his mother’s café, specializing in latte art. And then there’s Levi, who’s not exactly your typical patron, because, well, he’s blunt and rude (which Eren supposes isn’t that much different from regular customers) but mostly he just confuses Eren’s poor little homosexual heart. 

Nuthatch (31k words) and the sequel Sparrow (116k words) by @sugarplum-senpai Canonverse. Pining and slow burn at it’s finest. All I’m going to say about it.

After the war has ended, Levi finds himself thrown into coerced retirement. With nothing but time on his hands, he buys an old house, and throws himself into renovation work to fulfill himself an old, almost forgotten dream: opening a tea shop. If only he could forget about expressive, green eyes and a smile like sunshine. Luckily, he’s still got Hanji.

[Prequel to “Sparrow”]

After the war has ended, Eren’s life is finally good. He’s seen the ocean, is back at HQ where he trains the new Scouts, and he has dinner with Levi every single night. So yes. Things are just as well.

[Sequel to Nuthatch | can be read as stand-alone work]

The Old Boat House by @oppa86oppa (102k words): Modern/fantasy AU, Levi is a merman (fitting to read during mermay no?) Has some andgst and some fluff, a bit of everything, really.

One night after Eren and his friends share a bottle of whisky, two bottles of whatever Annie brought and a couple of ghost stories, they walk the path along the gravel road, through the wheat field and past the small forest and stumble upon the old boat house. Inside they find something that’s sleeping on the bottom of the lake, someone clearly not human. One of them comes up with the idea they should catch it, probably fucking Jean, and in their surprise they actually succeed. However, in mere seconds the situation is suddenly turned completely upside down.

Eren doesn’t fall into the water, he doesn’t jump, he’s pulled down.

Art of War by catsonfire(53k words): Modern AU, fluff and comedy

Noisy neighbors, nursling dinosaurs, satanic box cutters, shitty convenience store management, the word ‘fuck’, hereditary (but not really) homosexuality, beer and ramen, pennies, truckstops, strippers, closets, semi-public defacing, rings, house parties, “recreational” drug use, accidental rendezvous, toxic stew (don’t eat the stew), nice abs, housewives–batteries not included, over-educational movie sessions, copious domesticity, kittens named after landlords, a shit joke at participating locations, and many, many happy endings.A modern AU in which Eren moves into the apartment directly above Levi’s.

Do you want me or do you want me dead? by fmaloser (82k words): Modern not-your-typical-high-school AU. A personal favourite of mine and the amount of kudos is a sacrilage. Although yes, it’s dark. There is blood and gore. The relationship they have is not healthy. Lots of angst. Boys are both broken and break other peoples’ bones, but I love them for it. (Read the tags before reading the fic.)

It’s decided that the school douchebag, Levi, needs a tutor to help get his grades back up. It’s also decided that high school senior, Eren, is perfect for the job.At first, the two hate each other. But after their pasts come back to bite them in the ass, they realize that maybe that’s not the case.

An Unlikely Alliance by @monsoondownpour (117k words) Arranged Marriage Between Waring Kingdoms AU. Everything you want from a good fic.

When Scouting Legions main trading partner, Wall Maria, is experiencing economic strain from constant attacks by the neighboring kingdom Titan, the leaders of the two nations come to an agreement: Scouting Legion will provide military protection in exchange for land and financial aid for the still growing nation.Their new alliance will be sealed with the union of King Jaegar’s son Eren to the Scouting legions strongest soldier, Lance Corporal Levi. But how will the cold, impassive soldier warm to his new husband, who is far from the weak, spoiled princess he was expecting?

Witch’s Vein and Bloodstains by @monsoondownpour (38k words) Fantasy AU. Not that long but so beautifully written it’s unreal. The atmosphere and how it’s delivered is honestly something I aspire to.

In a land of sentient forests and unpredictable magic, it is never wise to venture far without a witch.  

The Survey Corps is in dire need of a replacement after a tragic accident took Ilse’s life in a quest gone horribly wrong. Eren might not be what anyone expected, but he has raw talent and curious allure that even Captain Levi can’t deny. When circumstances conspire to pit the squad against the same adversary that took Ilse barely a year ago, will they be able to handle the challenge a second time round?

Fallen Star @monsoondownpour (31k words) Modern AU. Lots of angst. Actually it’s mostly angst because even the ridiculously fluffy parts hurt. (But spoiler: happy ending, yay!)

Detective Levi Ackerman had his life in order; a steady job he enjoyed, a close circle of friends, and a spitfire little sister who was all the family he could ever want or need. His world was a simple one until ballet prodigy Eren Jaeger stumbled into it.Someone like Eren didn’t belong in his world.Now he wasn’t sure how he would live without him.

Lists by Trick_Fantasy (72k words) College AU. Can be highly triggering for anxiety, there is emotional manipulation, and VERY toxic friendships. It’s about learning to get past all of that. Read at own risk. But it’s an amazing fic and will forever be one of my favourites.

The story of Levi (“Why bother trying to make friends when you can learn to control people instead?”) and Eren (“Because you can control people better when they think that they’re your friends. They don’t even know they’re being manipulated.”) coping with social interaction at college in their own different ways.

Augenfresser by @foxicology (75k words) Modern/Fantasy AU. Horror/Thriller. Deals with heavy stuff, the ending is up for interpretation and known to fuck people up. Be warned.

Monsters did not like to hide under beds, as his father had told him. No; he found the monster hiding in his closet.

Love.exe by @cofferi (70k words) Modern AU. Finishing off with more fluff/comedy so I don’t seem like such a psycho. Definitely a fun read.

All Levi wants to do is drink tea, run his goddamn convenience store, and not have to deal with this kid who keeps coming in to leech his wifi bringing down high-end corporations.

Also literally anything by @sciencefictioness is a sure bet. Just saying.

Also going to take the oppotunity to throw in my own AO3 because why the hell not (although it’s mostly oneshots).

I’m very sure I’m missing some amazing fics and authors but this is what I could think off at 1AM and not make it a mile long post. I hope you find something you haven’t read and that you enjoy these gems anon :)

.

.

.

Also I can’t help but throw this fic in:

Tinsel Town by TheWonderYears (33k words) Modern AU. Psychotic-murder-boyfriends AU. Seriously. It’s very graphic. Blood, gore, torture, all the fun stuff. I love it. My ultimate fave, always and forever.

There’s Definitely Something In The Water.

Aaaand there goes my ‘I’m not a psycho’ claim.

[kirishwima]

3,6,9,7 for u

3. What was the first story you ever wrote about?mmm i just answered it, BUT! If you wanna know the first fanfiction i ever wrote,,,,it’s really embarassing but I wrote a Niall Horan x reader fic back in the day for my friend to post on her wattpad lmao

6. What’s your biggest strength as a writer?

I...really don’t know? I think I’m good at capturing abstract thoughts/aesthetics and dialogues, but I genially don’t know for sure lol. You guys should tell me what you think is your fav thing about my writing! ((It’d make me ridicilously happy lol~))

7. What’s your biggest weakness as a writer?

HOoo boythere’s a lot?? I suck at descriptions, and sometimes since im not a native english speaker i feel like my dialogues seem a bit stiff, especially when introducing characters for the first time. I suck at writing opening lines that aren’t vague as shit, and I can’t be detailed when writing action scenes to save my liFE. I often go a long time without adding a period, only using dashes and semi-colons, and I HATE PROOFREADING! I often post things without looking over them even once bc if I do I know I’ll hate them and aaahh yeah

there’s a lot of things i hate about my writing tbh, but hey! ill keep writing and maybe hopefully eventually improve ;;

9. Who’s your favorite author?

Neil Gaiman!!! I love everything there is about his writing, from how he introduces characters to the simple yet poised way he writes, I love his imagination! How stories slowly get more convoluted and drag you in, and my absoloute favorite of his are his short stories. I find that any author that can captivate you with a short story is a master at their craft, and honestly I love his ‘Trigger Warning’ series, I think I’ve re-read that collection more than a couple times.  I’d tag him if i wasnt an embarassed coward lmao but he has a tumblr so maybe go check his blog and most importantly his works out~

-writing asks-
