Happy to see you posting again! I missed you and am happy to hear you're doing well.

I like to take edibles and write out plot summaries/story ideas in texts to @archergwen. No actual writing gets done and nothing ever happens outside of a feeling of satisfaction when they agree it's a good idea, but the brainstorming is kinda fun 🤣

fuck it. be creative even if you never really *make* anything. write out plot synopses of stories and then move on. design OCs you'll never use. make mood boards and concept art and don't do anything with them. life's too short to forget everything that inspired you and creation doesn't have to be "complete" to be worth the time you put into it.

"StripClub Steve" from the ask meme; I am intrigued

Hey there! :waves:

In StripClub Steve we have a very repressed, recently unfrozen Steve going to a male strip club for the first time, nervous, scared but Steve’s brave and curious so he makes his way in. He’s entertained by the dancers but what really catches his eye is famous, well-known and beloved Tony Stark sitting across the bar, without any shame at all, enjoying the show. They lock eyes and Steve looks away, blushing. Eventually a dancer tries to chat Steve up and there’s Tony sliding into his booth to rescue him. 

The working summary is: "theres naked men on the stage but steve cant stop looking at the man half in shadow in a suit"

I appreciate your masterpost! I appreciated the different angles on stories I'd taken for granted or forgotten a lot about!

Thank you! I'm glad someone does and finds use of it beyond me.

So…was no one going to tell me there’s an amazing web comic with lots of Buster Keaton references in it?

Yes, thanks to @archergwen for reblogging a simple joke post and sending me down this rabbit hole. I just binged the entire comic in a day and now I can’t get this damn found family out of my brain.

Also, just yesterday I had a player on a rival team in ESO whisper me to ask what my username meant, and I had the same conversation “a term for Buster Keaton fans. it’s pronounced like ‘damn if I know” etc etc so there’s a bonus doodle of RGB explaining it for every time someone pronounces my username wrong.

JELSA WEEKEND (March) 2k17

thank you thank you thank you to everyone who responded back to my mad surge of messages!!! i’m PUMPEd that so many people are down to throw some more jelsa love together, whether in addition to the february jelsa week (does anyone have a link??) or just in general. here is what we are thinking so far:

jelsa weekend 2k17

march: 17th, 18th, 19th --- the weekend leading up to the spring equinox (& maybe the 20th, too --- the date of the spring equinox) theme: “end of winter” 

i would make a special tumblr url/hub for news and updates specifically for this event, as well as a tag to help facilitate the sharing of works.

EDIT: there is, in fact, a jelsa week 2017 currently in cation!!!! i haven’t found any central information links yet (if you have some, please share!), but if you’re interested in joining in, DO IT.

in the meantime, let’s stick to these tags for this particular celebration: #jelsa weekend 2017 #snowtpnetwork

i’ve already accosted checked in with a whole bunch of you, and it sounds like people are SUPER READY TO DO THIS 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️  any questions? suggestions? 

[archergwenwrites]

I have fun with tags and formatting.

[theloverofdragons]

now i'm not expecting the spanish inquisition (*wink wink*) but given the immense talent in the zutara fandom, i am expecting that there are loads of amazing fics, got any recommendations??? ^.^

NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION

But you are very right there anon, there are a lot of amazing fics that this fandom has produced

btw I’ve got more fic recommendations here and here 

Multi-Chap

 didn’t know my heart by @babyfairybaekhyun;And yet, in a matter of days, she has managed to worm her way under his skin, has cracked open his rib cage and has begun to patch up the endless amount of wounds on his heart(i would also 100% recommend Need the Sun to Break)

With Small Steps by @botherkupo;Mistakes once made cannot be undone, nor can consequences be ignored. A newly crowned Fire Lord is no exception.

i’m still here by @owedbetter“You see me.” And somehow, that makes all the difference.

they call you refugee by @akaiikowrites“You are mine. Maybe I didn’t choose you then, but I choose you now. That changes everything.” Zuko goes into exile with a scar, a mission, and a wife. [Canon Divergence AU]part one ; two ; three ; four

Lilacs and Lily Pads by @sadladybugA tale of clumsy courtship and calamitous court weddings, featuring awkward family encounters, floral mishaps, cultural complications, and good old fashioned fluff and conflict. Takes place in the five years following the war’s end. For Zutara Week 2016. A prequel to Bones.

Moonlight and Sunshadow by @grapefruittwostepThe dragon offered Katara a deal: protection for her family and tribe if she lived with it for a year and a day. And she said yes. Because what other way was there to save her people? But there was more to the dragon than Katara bargained for. An “East of the Sun, West of the Moon” retelling.

an unfortunate series of naked mishaps by @emletish-fishKatara and Zuko secretly seeing each other. They just want a little privacy. Is that too much to ask? Fate it would seem, has other ideas. a series of Naked Mishaps follows. Completed! Rated S for silly and N for nudity

Oneshots

Things That Aren’t by misszeldasayreA late evening stargazing with Katara leads to a secret relationship that takes over Zuko’s life: “The sense of hurtling through space, of free falling into the abyss threatens to overwhelm him. His world, once governed by the sun, is now ruled by the moon sprawled out before him.” Follow Zuko and Katara’s relationship through its genesis, implosion, and resolution.

roll the dice by @raisindeatreSome Zutara, some gen, 100% crack (the gaang play Dungeons and Dragons in the Dark and it is fluffy and hilarious and amazing)

mist & mysteries by @gialaxy;She smiled to herself beneath the veil of her hat, turning to look at the familiar figure that prowled stealthily across the rooftop. He was impossibly silent, as he always was, that she sometimes wondered whether or not he was really there, whether he was merely the face of her lonesome dreams, a wisp of smoke in the night air, a ghost wandering the skyline. Or: The Painted Lady wasn’t planning on spending a night at a stuffy party full of other ‘vigilantes’ with the Blue Spirit, but here they are, doing something that strongly resembles gossiping, and she can’t help but wonder who he is beneath the mask.

Ambitious by Foolish_Moon“Icarus.” She whispered when she first laid eyes on him, remembering the tale of the man who flew too close to the sun. Maybe it was the scar, a burnt mark shaped like a lone wing, contrasting against his pale features; or maybe it was his eyes, golden and glaring, like the merciless sun. Zutara Week 2017 Day 4 Entry.

A Lover of the Lights by euphorellaZuko comes to terms with the aftermaths of the war.

PaintedBlue Super-Hero/Villain AU by @fireprunes‘Oh god, I just had a one night stand with a supervillain’ ‘Dear lord, I just fucked a superhero’ (to make the situation especially awkward; they just lost their viginities to each other)

Lunar Leashed by nonsensicallyrics;Zuko’s compromised senses on the night of the full moon lead to Katara having a dog for a month. AU written for iamartemisday for ZK Secret Santa 2013. Based on the prompt werewolf!Zuko

Drabble Series

Zuko Was No Coward by hootowlZuko was many things, but a coward he was not. A collection of Zutara100 prompts. Title may change.

Fate Loves the Fearless by @babyfairybaekhyunCollection of tumblr ask box fics

Zutara Month by @archergwenHe won’t choose another life, not if he can’t spend it with her, watching her, basking in her glow, seeing her grow into someone even more wonderful. She’d climb an old temple of three thousand steps, carrying him the whole way, if it would mean she gets the next seven lives to see him smile. (some chapters have been re-arranged to be in order of prompt date, not date of publication)

Slices of Ocean Kumquat by @sonicciZutara Week 2011. Mask, History, Social Networking, Secret, Awkward, Legendary, Caught. Theme 7: When Zuko is caught in the act of something utterly despicable, will Katara find it in herself to forgive him?

Smut

The Ocean Takes Me In by @babyfairybaekhyunShe swallows hard, releasing a shuddering breath, and nods. “Perfect,” She whispers, and Zuko is sure that his heart is gone now, wrapped up in her hands.

Heat by @elledixKatara was pretty sure that it should be illegal for the Fire Nation to have heat waves, especially in a nation of firebenders who just absorbed all that heat. One-shot.

Hope you have fun reading these (I absolutely did) ^.^

Happy Shipping!

What I have left to do:

Get the descriptions - right now it’s pulling in each new paragraph as a separate item instead of giving me 20 items, so I don’t know which paragraphs go to which fic.  I also need to see what happens when there’s no description at all and make sure that doesn’t cause errors

Get the tags - I currently get all tags with no commas between, which is obnoxious

Get series information - forgot about this entirely

Comments, kudos, and bookmarks - need the work # split from the data and then it needs to be combined with the variables that every fic has, taking into account that if it’s missing for a fic then it should be 0

Make a way to loop through a certain # of pages and/or all pages.

Expand the author coding to deal with coauthors and gifts

Revamp the process of pulling the data into SQL, since this is in a different format than the files I used to get from the online scraper.
