feat. @heartunsettledsoul, @ghostmaggie, & @acesnancy ♥︎

[stonerbughead]

GAHHHH I need to:

1. Finish my Nancy Drew rewatch before the S4 premiere (!!) on Wednesday (!!) (don’t forget I do most of my shrieking about ND @acesnancy)

2. Catch up on Yellowjackets before the Internet spoils me!!! I’m several weeks behind! Help!!!!!

3. Catch up on All American before the end of season 5 is fully spoiled for me!!! (I’ve seen some glimpses on my ig explore page but like nothing definitive but how long can that LAST when I’m three whole eps behind!) Again, see above image.

4. Start rewatching three different shows for my first two @leftistteendrama season 3 recordings in June. (any guesses on which?)

5. Plus actually, you know, go outside and host a bbq this weekend😮‍💨

Listen I've been hoping for a nace wedding but now I'm even more hopeful especially with that post you wrote like I'm gonna need that honeymoon in Paris loool my expectations are sky high right now I feel like I'm setting myself up for disappointment 😞😞😞

Lmao sorry not the post you wrote the one you reblogged from bethanyactually and acesnancy about how the curse breaking ceremony was so much like a wedding

LOL no worries! but like...the series has to end with them in paris recreating carson and kate's honeymoon like ??????? THEY WOULDN'T JUST TELL US THAT NANCY WANTS TO DO THAT IF IT WASN'T SUPER IMPORTANT and the fact that she said that in response to ace asking what the first thing she wanted to do after they broke the curse was like ?????? THEY'RE SO IN LOVE

[acesnancy]

hi! I’m Maria, a bughead stan who’s largely abandoned canon riverdale so I can keep writing fic about my favorite investigative duo...and who is super excited to have another investigative duo to watch on a CW show. I started shipping Nace probably around that library investigating scene in the back end of S1. Like, 😍

TLDR: this is my Nancy Drew side blog. I ship Ace and Nancy and am really gunning for a friends-who-solve-mysteries-together to lovers slowburn in season 2!

(but wanted to also put on the record that I am not like, super anti Nick and Nancy; I think they were cute!! but I also like George and Nick so 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m here for the journey! Bess and Lisbeth are also adorable. However, *lucille bluth voice* I do not care for Owen.)

anyway! hey! I’m usually over at @stonerbughead as my main but follows come from my ol personal @smudgedbypen ❤️

[nancy-drew]

Do you respond to comments, why or why not?

Yes, I’ve been making a point of responding this year. It’s so kind of people to go out of their way and leave a comment on my work, big or small, and I want them to know how much I appreciate it. I don’t always respond right away but it’s only because I want to be able to match your energy when I do. Same goes for commenting on other writer’s fics!

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

HM. Angstiest? Probably Chapter 5 of Missing You is a Slow Burn, though Chapter 4 personally hits harder.

What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

Perhaps I Think It’s About Old Friends.

Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written?

I only wrote one once bahahha and it was short and sweet. My lil Jily meets Stydia trash fire, Wizards of Beacon Hills High.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Unfortunately. Which...why? It’s not like fanfic writers are getting paid. We don’t owe you anything. It’s a hobby. You don’t shit on people’s hobbies.

Only feel free to critique my work if I’m seeing royalties, baby! 

So never.

Do you write smut? If so what kind?

I’ve tried. I’ve failed. End of story bahaha. I’d love to give it another shot one day.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Can’t say I have.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

No

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

No

What’s your all time favorite ship?

FFFF. I feel bad not saying Bellarke since I loved them so passionately for so long but...my heart forever belongs to Jily. When all is said and done, I always return to them like home.

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

I currently do not have any WIPs that I do not intend to finish. double vision ALMOST got left in the dust, though. The plot got ahead of me for bimbo brain reasons.

What are your writing strengths?

Ah, I dunno. If I choose even one thing then I know tomorrow I’ll suck at that one thing specifically. 

What are your writing weaknesses?

Again, I’m going to follow Mattie’s lead and not specify anything I find weak about my writing. She made a good point in her post bahahah

However, generally speaking, it takes me a lot longer to string a sentence together than it did when I was younger. It turns out my mom was right, and drugs really do fry your brain! I’m dumb now.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

I TRY TO AVOID IT. Out of respect. I don’t want to butcher any language but the English one.

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

Harry Potter, Marauders Era. All of that work is now gone with the wind...

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

The fics I wrote for Mad Wife are my favorite, especially i waited for your heart to melt. Sweeney and Laura’s nasty little relationship tapped into something raw and mean inside of me, so writing for them felt almost cathartic. Plus, their banter was the most fun to play with.

stonerbughead's year in writing 2021

i wanted to take a moment before 2021 ends to say a huge thank you to all the bughead and nace fanfic writers - and to all the readers who reblogged, messaged, left kudos, or left a comment on my fics this year! y'all truly kept me going in these trying times, and i'm hoping for a better 2022 for all of us!

anyway i'm proud of how much i managed to write this year despite riverdale canon providing very little inspiration, so i thought i'd do a round up.

right back where we started from (3/12) i started a new WIP this year! my bugvarchie the O.C. AU feat. core four friendship has been so fun to write tho the slowburn has been killing me. can't wait to make varchie and bughead smooch. bugvarchie endgame!

I posted two new chapters of my ongoing WIP Exhale (18/23) in 2021, chapter 17 and chapter 18. i'm so grateful to readers who have been invested in this story since 2018!

@riverdalepromptathon gave me a reason to write a few different codas to existing fics that i'm proud of:

familiar places (1/1), a fluffy bughead moment within the Pop Tate, Working Class Hero universe (in which Pop's is worker-owned.)

do you think i'm being foolish if i don't rush in? (1/1), a dinner party with Bughead and the gang three years after if it feels like a home

feel it all around (1/1), a prompt fill for @lucivar showing Bughead through the years as seen, told, and observed by the ensemble cast of do you like or like like me?

other fandom events gave me inspiration to expand my horizons too!

under the boardwalk (1/1), @riverdalepocweek gave me a great excuse to expand on a universe i created for the @riverdaleprideandjoyzine. i love my gurl Melody Valentine and it was fun to write some more about the Pussycats and my boy Munroe.

four years later (1/1) the @aceandnancy @nancydrewcentral Nace Appreciation Week event inspired me to finally write my first Nace fic! Private investigators going undercover as lovers felt like a good way to kick off writing for that pairing ;)

and the holidays gave me an excuse to get festive, including the time honored tradition of Bughead Secret Santa!

friendsgiving 2012 (2/2), a Thanksgiving coda to do you like or like like me? set during Bughead and the gang's freshman year of college.

you can count on me (2/3), my fake dating tropefest @bugheadsecretsanta gift for @theheavycrown, which i'm working on finishing as soon into the new year as i can (the last chapter is set during new years so I'm soaking up all the inspo I can and going out with a writing bang!)

2022 writing plans:

Exhale: i don't make too many promises when it comes to this fic anymore, but i do plan to update. i'll do an annual 4/20 update for sure, but hopefully more!

right back where we started from: i plan to finish writing chapter 4 early in the new year, and am hoping to make some progress in general! there are a lot of exciting moments in the ch 4-5-6-7 territory of my outline, so excited to write it.

Write more Nace! I'm really hoping to write for Nancy/Ace more in the new year, bc it was very fun and i'm hoping canon Nancy Drew is gonna deliver some serious inspo when it returns in January. also you can catch all my nace ranting @acesnancy, my ND sideblog

i have a longshot hope that i'll write more in the if it feels like a home universe but we shall see! you never know where 2022 might take us!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, and lots of love to everyone who makes fandom great! (Too many people to tag, i already tried.) 💖
