The Comfort of Quiet Companionship
Wednesday Addams x autistic fem reader
A/N: This is my first fanfic, and any feedback would be appreciated. Let me know if you want a part 4. (I am actually autistic, so this is mostly based off the symptoms I show, but if you have any typical symptoms of autism you wish for me to add to the story later let me know and I'll try my best. Please be respectful to all, and remember to drink water and look after yourself, cuties❤️)
Part 1 Part 2 Part 4 Part 5
Summary: You and Wednesday get into a comforting routine, and quiet moments together bring you closer and closer.
The routine began seamlessly—an unspoken agreement that formed as naturally as the setting sun casting shadows across the hallowed halls of Nevermore Academy. Each evening, as the day gave way to twilight, you and Wednesday would find your way to the library, the sanctuary of your shared solitude.
The library, with its towering shelves and dim, cozy lighting, became your haven. There, amidst the ancient tomes and quiet corners, you both found a unique comfort in each other’s presence.
One evening, you entered the library to find Wednesday already seated at your usual table, a large, dusty volume open before her. Her concentration was absolute, but she looked up as you approached, offering a rare, understated smile.
"Evening," you said softly, setting down your bag and taking your seat. You pulled out your sketchbook, a familiar sense of calm washing over you as you began to sketch.
Wednesday’s eyes briefly flickered to your work before returning to her book. The silence between you was comfortable, a testament to how your bond had evolved. It was not the silence of strangers, but of two people who found solace in each other’s presence.
Over the next few nights, your routine solidified. You would often bring along a puzzle to work on, and Wednesday would occasionally join you, her sharp mind making quick work of the more challenging pieces. The way she would lean in, her concentration evident, always made the moments feel intimate and special.
Sometimes, instead of puzzles, you would both simply read—Wednesday with her usual dark literature and you with whatever book you happened to be engrossed in. Occasionally, the conversation would flow as easily as the turning pages. You’d share insights about the books you were reading, debating characters, plots, or even the occasional morose detail that Wednesday found particularly intriguing.
One night, as you sat reading beside her, the subject of conversation drifted from books to more personal topics. "Have you ever thought about how much comfort there is in these quiet moments?" you asked, breaking the silence.
Wednesday glanced up, her eyes meeting yours with a hint of curiosity. "Comfort is not something I often seek, but I find this—our time here—somewhat... reassuring. It is a different kind of connection."
You nodded, your gaze drifting to the cozy dimness of the library. "I feel the same. It's strange how just being here, with you, makes everything feel... right. It’s like we’ve created our own little refuge."
Wednesday’s fingers traced absentmindedly along the edge of her book, and as if guided by an unspoken agreement, her hand brushed against yours. The contact was gentle, and you both allowed the moment to linger. Your fingers intertwined briefly, a simple yet profound gesture of support and affection.
As the nights passed, the library visits became a cherished ritual. You would often find yourselves sitting side by side, content in your separate activities but always close enough to feel connected. The occasional hand-holding or shared glance was a reminder of the growing bond between you.
The act of simply spending time together, without the need for grand gestures or constant conversation, became a source of immense comfort. For both of you, it was a refuge from the complexities of the outside world, a space where you could be yourselves without pretense.
In these quiet evenings, surrounded by the soft glow of the library lamps and the comforting hush of old books, you found a mutual support that was both profound and reassuring. The gentle act of sharing space and time became a pillar of strength for both girls, solidifying a bond that was both subtle and deeply meaningful.
And so, with each passing night, the library became more than just a place of learning—it became a testament to the simple, quiet comfort of true companionship, one that neither of you had realized you needed but now cherished deeply.

Hi! May I request either killer or katakuri (again, sorry) in how they would sleep? Maybe if you’re cool with it how they would nap or sleep with a partner. Thank you!
i did both because i am #toocool .
«─────────── « ⋅ʚ♡ɞ⋅ » ───────────»
Killer
▸ He sleeps in the mask sometimes. He doesn't really want to be caught without it. Even if he's sleeping w/ his partner i can't see him sleeping with it off that often unless you r like. literally the closest two people can be.
▸ he sleeps in boxers. He gets REALLY hot during the night esp if its summer ... hes in a constant state of sweatiness and cant sleep without a fan.
▸ Probably would sleep in the nude, but on a pirate ship that could get attacked or raided at any time during the night... its not wise to have no pants on during the night. (Kidd sleeps naked. no one enjoys this.)
▸ Lays on his back with his arms folded on his chest. doesn't move at all. will let you cuddle into his side but he refuses to spoon. Just lays there like a corpse until he wakes up at exactly 5:30 every morning with the same stretch.
Katakuri
▸ he sleeps in the striped cap and gown pjs... and he has a comically large candlestick on his nightstand for when he wakes up in the middle of the night.
▸ He doesn't sleep in the scarf but he definitely pulls the covers up past his face. He gets chilly during the night so he sleeps with the FLUFFIEST WARMEST COMFORTER EVER . and Egyptian cotton sheets (or the equivalent in the OP world). He can only sleep in his bed and he's extremely picky with pillow and mattress firmness.
▸ He's scared to sleep in the same bed as you for a while. He has a tendency to roll around and move in his sleep and he Really does not want to crush you if you're smaller than him. But even in his sleep he somehow ... knows where you are ??? in the bed ??? and youve never been crushed. (observation haki go crazy)
▸ HE LOVES TO CUDDLE. Katakuri is SO touch and affection starved that cuddling in bed is like. his favorite activity. He loves to just lay there and hold you on his massive, muscular and mochi-soft chest. Its the best feeling ever and under his comforter is SO WARM that during the winter it is just. heaven. ❤️

❤️❤️
Warning: eating disorder, starvation
Notes: if anyone ever feels like this my messages are always open to anyone <3 please please don't ever try to starve yourself. You will never feel happier, you won't know when to stop. don't do it, it's not worth risking your happiness and freedom.
You would scroll through your socials always looking at others. How their life is more fun and how happy they look but they look better than you, skinnier than you. You like the way you look… well liked the way you look. You can't stand looking at yourself in the mirror anymore. You feel sick everytime. You're not overweight, you're perfectly average but it doest feel like that. You start saying up later watching makeup tutorials on how to do the perfect winged eyeliner or how to make your skin glow, as well as waking up hours earlier just to do your hair and make yourself look over the top. If you don't try enough you stand out but if you try hard you stand out. You keep getting called out on it at school and it's draining you at this point.
Your alarm goes off as you groan slowly, opening your eyes. 5 am… you sigh, grabbing your phone and scrolling through your socials looking at stalking every gorgeous, skinner, better looking girl from your year. Without noticing you realise half an hour has passed. You groan as you get out of your bed making your way to your bathroom and taking a shower before brushing your teeth. You pick out a mediocre outfit. Just some jeans and a hoodie. You can't help but stare at the mirror. Why can't I look like them? What am I doing wrong? You spend around an hour putting on makeup covering up every small thing you viewed as imperfect. You’ve got around 15 minutes left before you leave. You make your way to the kitchen seeing your brothers. Donnie is helping Mikey cook as Leo sleepy looks at the kitchen counter and Raph tries to wake him up.
Mikey perks up hearing your footsteps. You notice this. Am I that heavy to make such loud steps?
“Morning! I’ve made you your favourite! Pancakes with strawberries!” he says with a smile looking proudly at you. Your stomach drops hearing this. You can't eat that. You're supposed to be on a diet. Supposed to try to look better but you keep a smile on your face.
“I'm so sorry Mikey but I'm not really hungry” you say rubbing your arm hoping he would just brush it off. Donnie however looks at you confused and Leo slowly lifts his head up to Raph giving him a look.
“Dear sister, you must eat. How will you pay attention in class?”
“Really, i'm not hungry”
“ok , just make sure you eat some lunch ok?”
“I will Raph, don't worry” you give him a smile before leo looks at you squinting his eyes
“Hermana! Are you wearing makeup?” you freeze a bit. you didn't put a lot.
“Umm ya” leo looking suspiciously at you
“Not trying impress someone are you?” he grins mischievously and Donnie proceeds to fake a gag. Mikey thought he was actually going to puke and pushed him out the kitchen. You laugh.
“What? No! Just… wanting to try something different. Why? Does it look bad?”
“Of course not! If you start wanting to wear it more often you can ask April for some tips. That might be a good idea”
“Ok ya i will. I’ve got to go now or else i'll be late”
“See you later!”
You nod before making your way out the lair with your lunch that mikey had handed to you before you left.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shit. That's how you would describe your day, absolutely shit. You didn't eat your lunch because some of the girls decided to be asses today.
“Are you sure you want to eat today?”
“You know, if you lose a bit of wight you might be noticed”
You cried to yourself in the bathroom stall at lunch. What did I do? You're walking home and pass by a dumpster. You look at it for a few seconds before taking your lunch out the bag and throwing it in the bin without hesitation. You don't need mikey asking why you haven't eaten. It's not important.
You make your way back to the lair and as you enter you see. No one. They must be out on patrol, you thought. You make your way to your room and you see a note on your door.
Hey sis! Your amazing brothers are out on patrol right now but there is some leftover lunch in the fridge. Help yourself!
You laugh to yourself and ignore it before walking into your room and closing your door. You feel so tired, so drained you just pass out on your bed.
Next day is the same but this time you had a bit of breakfast and counted the calories making sure to burn them after. You had also weighed yourself wondering what's the perfect weight. When you came home that day your brothers were out on patrol again. You sigh seeing the same note on your door but probably by Leo because you don't know how in hell you read that. The handwriting was interesting to say the least. This becomes a routine now until You start to feel dizzy all the time. Maybe just sleep it off. You do your nightly routine and pass out.
The door slowly opens. You whine covering your eyes from the light that seeps into your room.
“Raph?”
“Hey ___”
You just close your eyes and sigh as Raph walks closer to your bed.
“You feeling ok? You’ve been falling asleep earlier than usual. School taking a toll on you?”
You just nod your head not knowing what to say
“Thought so, just rest up and we’ll make a good breakfast for you” your eyes shoot open at these words. Your stomach cramps up as you cry
“____! You ok?”
You run to the bathroom as Raph calls for donnie. You crouch over the toilet before throwing up. Your vision is blurry before looking up to see Donnie and Leo. your purple brother visibly cringes at the sight as Leo runs up next to you holding your hair up. You cry as you look up to see Mikey and Raph enter with worried eyes on you. Leo helps you up before Mikey helps you wash your face at the sink.
“What's wrong with her? Does she have food poisoning?” Mikey looks at his brothers as if he was about to cry
“No, she only vomited bile, her stomach is empty, it's not food poisoning” Leo said. You grip onto Mikey finding it hard to stand up by yourself.
“____? It's ok” Raph rubbed your back trying to calm you down.
“Only bile? ___ when was the last time you ate?” you freeze looking up at Donnie
“Answer! When was the last time you ate a full meal? A proper meal?” you burst into tears again
“I dont know!” you shout making mikey and leo flinch
‘I dont know…I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I didnt think” you breath hitches as it speeds up. Your brother sighs as he crouches in front of you
“Breathe” you take a deep breath slowly calming down. Your brothers look at each other
“Raph will take you back to bed”
“I’ll get you some water”
Raph carries you back to bed as Leo comes back with a glass of water in his hand. He gives it to you as you accept it with shaking hands. You don't like this, you don't like the way they stare at you. You feel so helpless and so lost.
“____… what happened?” mikey starts
“I don't know..”
“Why haven't you eaten?”
“I…i don't know!”
“____.. Answer”
“I don't know! I just feel like shit! I hate the way I look, the way I talk, the way I act, the way I walk. I hate this body! I wanna be better, look better, look prettier! I don't know”
“W-what?” Mikey looks up at you with glossy eyes as you glance back at him with your own
“Hermana..you are absolutely perfect the way you are, ok?”
“Exactly, you don't need to change the way you are. We think you're perfect!”
“Ok but others Dont!”
“Stop thinking about what others think. And starving yourself isn't the right way to go about this! You can die!”
You don't know what to say, you just look at them helplessly.
“You can't keep doing this.”
“You need to get better. Promise us you’ll get better”
You hesitate you’ve grown to kind of like the feeling of being hungry now you crave it
“I…i”
“We will help you ok?”
“O-ok”
“We will help you get better, feel better about yourself”
Before you know it your surrounded by your favourite people in the world hugging you tightly scared to let you go as if you’ll break

When you get this, please respond with five things that make you happy! Then, send to your last ten people in your notifs (anonymously). You never know who might benefit from spreading positivity ❤️
Ooooo, an Anon Ask that's probably chain mail or something? Little do they know that I try and answer most everything I'm asked cuz I enjoy engagement on this site! And I will instead tag some mutuals and make this a positive little game! Ahem, here goes!!
My friends!!! Hiiiii everyone! I love interacting and being with both my virtual and non-online buddies, because they are the best! Each of my friends get to claim pieces of my brain like a community garden lol.
2. Music! It's everywhere, and everything to me!! I've got so many favorite songs 'n genres, and it's really a part of my life I could never ever live without. I heart music forever :3
3. Food! Now, I know not everyone is a foodie, but I definitely am! Cooking and baking are great bonding activities imo, and you can learn a lot about the world (and people around you) by watching what kinds of cuisines cross over tables!!
4. Mushrooms! Not necessarily for eating, I just think they are cool! I have two lovely books on mycology and fungi that I need to dedicate some more time to, and upon completing them, I will become the Mushroom Master! Mwahaha! XD
5. Plush toys & stuffed animals!! I have a tiiiiiiny problem with how many I've collected lol, but I cherish them all dearly and am 100% willing to go into debt for some cool plushies. If I am not holding them in my arms or nestling in a pile of them on my bed, then they are in The Birdcage for my viewing enjoyment!
Phew, now that my spiel is all over with, time to tag some lovely mutuals! Feel free to answer as much or as little as you want in this lil game; I'm just curious about what might make people happy :]]

besties lose.
this team had such an amazing regular season, historic. they set the record for most franchise wins, most comeback wins, got the most points, were at the top of the league, won the president’s trophy.
they swept washington, and got through carolina in six.
all of the matchups they were going into (including florida), they were the underdogs.
this team had EVERYTHING. they had the depth, the goaltending, the scoring ability, the POTENTIAL.
and once again, they throw it all away.
the lack of production from the big names (kreids, mika, bread) is, in all honesty, completely unacceptable. you’re supposed to be helping out the team, contributing equally just like everyone else. you are not supposed to be relying on your goalie for the entire series.
speaking of goalies, igor shesterkin is winning the award for playoff MVP. that man gave it his all. every fucking game, he had to stand on his head. he bought all that matcha just for it to lose its magic, because the 5 guys that are supposed to be in his corner FAILED him. he was the best player by a mile. no one would’ve ever measured up to what he was able to do when his team just gave up.
and now a couple of general things:
-i am very proud of laffy, both regular season and playoffs. he really came into his own. he set a new point record (including goals and assists: reg season). you could tell that he was a lot more comfortable and confident in the way he played. i’m very excited for his future here. it’s definitely bright.
-trouba needs to start playing smarter hockey. i’m surprised he didn’t take any penalties tonight, given it’s a common theme. he’s supposed to be the captain, and he can’t record PIMS every single game. i know that he does a good job with leadership off the ice, but he’s gotta start channeling it on there too.
-when the team hired lavi, i was not sure how it was going to go. despite the sadness of the current moment, he got this team to the ECF. he became apart of history with this team. i’m sure all the casuals are gonna be calling for his firing, but i really hope we keep him. he really did work miracles on the season. he always spoke very highly of everyone, even if they were struggling. he was insightful when he spoke to the media, and you could tell he was truly dedicated and excited to work with them.
-i feel that the new acquisitions (cuylle, wennberg, roslovic, rempe, gustafsson, quickie) did a really great job. they all have their own positive qualities they can bring while they play and should be happy to be apart of such a genuine group of people.
-and finally, i started this account in march because none of my friends watch hockey nor care about it, and i thought ‘why not create an account?’ if i’m being honest, there would be times where i would check some of your accounts for updates because i liked your content LOL. but because i didn’t have an actual account set up when it came to posting things, i was scared to follow y’all because you wouldn’t care if it was just a blank account. all i have to say is that i have no regrets. it’s been almost 3 months, and all of you have been so sweet, supportive, and welcoming. i feel like we’re all one little happy friend group that i always wanted. thank you for engaging with me and my account. i feel like all of you understand me more than my actual friends sometimes🤭. don’t worry, i will definitely be staying active during the off-season! i’m excited for the content we’re gonna get, and if there is anything involving jimmy or ryan, you best believe that i will be posting/reblogging it and annoying all of you because it’s what i do best. i’m very grateful to have shared this experience with you, and i can’t wait for more❤️
ok i lied.
my hopes for the 24-25 season:
1) resigning lindy. he had like 4 SOG tonight, and as a defenseman, i’d consider it a rarity. he might not score much, but he always makes good plays when he needs to, and is always giving up his body for the hell of it. he is the real definition of a warrior, and this is what the team needs.
2) resigning schneider. same thing, he’s been very steady for us all year. he’s still 22, so he continues to grow even more. the team needs him too.
3) i’m impartial about kakko, given his contract is up too. he was kinda invisible. i don’t really know if i’d lose my mind if he did get traded, but we’ll see what drury does.
4) quickie playing more games. i know he’s a backup, so he’s not supposed to play all 82, but for being 38 years old and still having the flexibility and active spirit to play a role like that, it was great to watch him in the regular season.
5) this team continuing to give me heart attacks, strokes, and contemplating my existence throughout each game, and then pulling the win out of their ass. why do i hope for this? because it’s what they did best.
forever & always, LGR❤️💙

20 questions for writers
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
81 at the time of answering this. I'm constantly adding new ficlets though, and actively working on two unpublished wips that I'm very excited about.
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
471,069
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Steddie. My hobby is just Steddie.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
🐉 Hic sunt dracones
🦇 Possession
🔥 Whatever you want it to be
(WTF, that only finished posting earlier this month, are you all insane???)
👨👩👧 Someone who cares
🧜♂️ Just add water
5. Do you respond to comments?
Always! (Well, except the outright rude ones, but I can count those on one hand.) You took time out of your day to tell me what you thought of my fic, and that is so incredibly motivating and means so much to me! 🥰
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I yet have to write an actual long fic with an unhappy ending, but i once made Steve come back wrong and killed everyone but Eddie and him for a ficlet, does that count? 😅
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
All of my long fics have happy endings, but Hic sunt dracones probably has the happiest to me. They're mated and disgustingly in love and it's flower crowns and apple pie and hot, hot monsterfucking forever after. 🐉🔥❤️
8. Do you get hate on fics?
I've been called racist and ableist and British, among other things, but 99.9% of all reactions I get are lovely! 💖
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I've … been known to write smut, yeah. 🤣
I love exploring all sorts of different vibes and dynamics, but I think porn with feelings is what I do best.
10. Do you write crossovers?
Nope, just wild AUs. 🐉🧜🏻😈
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I'm aware of.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Nope.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I co-wrote an original work with a school friend some 20 years ago. And by co-wrote I mean we took turns with the document and key-smashed what we thought should happen next where the other had left off. 🤣
The King’s Gift will be a very close collaboration between @house-of-the-moving-image and I bc we've developed the idea and the entirety of the plot together and are bringing it alive through our respective mediums. It's heaps of fun! ✨️
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
(drumroll) (expectant silence)
It's Steddie, people. Not only because they've quite literally eroded my brain, but also because of the wonderful people I've found and the beautiful experiences I've made and continue to make in this fandom. I've never been active in any fandom before, but I'm so, so glad I've taken the leap.
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will?
I try to finish all my WIPs and am very much committed to finishing the two I have ongoing rn.
That being said, there's a bunch of microfics and drabbles I'd love to expand on if I ever find the time (lake monster and ballerina Steve, I see you). 😅
16. What are your writing strengths?
I've repeatedly been told that I create very vivid images with my writing, and that's something I find really lovely. And I love world building. ✨️🥰
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Wordy bitch disease. I ramble, I spiral, I spin completely out of control. The amount of fics that ended up being much longer than I initially thought is embarrassing.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I’ve never actually done that. I’d definitely enlist the help of someone who is proficient enough in the language in question to ensure I don’t make an utter ass of myself. 😅
19. First fandom you wrote for?
The wizard who must not be named. I must’ve been fourteen or something? It was probably so bad, and sometimes I think I'd like to re-read it again, but it’s now lost on some hard drive in a junkyard somewhere, hopefully never to be seen again. 🪦
20. Favorite fic you've written?
I love all of my fics, each for its own reasons, but Hic sunt dracones will forever hold a special place in my heart. It is everything I ever dreamed of when I fantasized about writing and publishing my own fics but was too shy to do so. I’ve met and befriended amazing people over it. It has fanart. Even close to one year after I finished it, people are still telling me how much they loved it, and it feels so wonderful to know my writing resonated so much with somebody out there. I can never talk about it without getting all up in my feels. 🐉🥲💕

Top 3 fics of yours that you wish everyone would read—GO! Then remember to pass this on to 5 other people if you can ❤️
Ugh, I feel like these answers are so predictable, but I'm doing it anyways.
1. The Rock Bottom series
Not because it's perfect, but because: 1) it's an almost-decade-long passion project of mine; 2) it's one of my very few examples of a plot-driven fic instead of a ship-driven fic; 3) you can see my growth as a writer over the years I spent writing this story, refining my tastes and my style and characterizations while, 4) taking this property that I love and completely making it my bitch making it my own. 😉
Lots of angst, full canon rewrite project with Seto as the protagonist, Seth living in the Millennium Rod, Ishizu stepping up and taking a more active role in the story, Ryou getting the doting boyfriend he's always deserved, and Joey's got his own struggle along the way.
2. Power of Three
It's my love letter to a ship so obscure it had gotten taken off the ship list due to a lack of content, but I got it put back and am shortly building a small following of people who appreciate this ship too: Mumbleshipping (Kaiba x Duke x Ryou). It's another longfic that I've been working on for years so you can see my growth as well as my exploration of these characters that I adore and how I see them healing as they move on with their lives. 💜💙💚
3. Skin to Scales
Puppyshipping, a more recent work, and honestly I think it's some of the best smut I've ever written, with elements of whump, angst, pining, mild body horror, and still somehow finding a way to justify everything with canon and give them a cute ending. Hoping to make this a nice long series eventually so that you can see the lives that I imagine for our dragon boys. ❤️💙

DUDEEEEEE. She calls me baby youuuuu ate that harrrrrrrd. Like I had to go back in for seconds and thirds and fourths fr fr. Cause are we even surprised or are we just grateful that you give us mortals a second of your time and talent????
Babe you are so incredibly talented. The way you write is sooooooo amazing its like you just know how to manipulate your words into something that will and has had me in tears in like 2 seconds. Don't even get me started on how you write your characters. Like I don't know how I can fully and most genuinely express the astonishment you leave me in all the time.
I believe that you are one of a kind and a treasure to be cherished. I know that doubting is inevitable but I hope that you know that I'm always gonna be in the obsessed with addie corner no matter what. Like I meant it when I said that there won't be a time when you have no fans. Ever. You will forever be my favourite gorgeous goddess❤️❤️❤️.
-❤️
(I'm sorry I've been so absent school has been actually eating me alive)
(I think about you everyday though and it makes life just that much better)
(I hope you don't think I'm exaggerating😭😭😭😭All of this that I've been feeling without releasing had to be sent in a long ask my bad)
(I missed your little bonuses though, I hope you're doing okay)
(I'm always here for anything you may need, even if its literally just to tell you how amazing you are)
(love you ❤️)
#jealousclarissesupremacy

(idk i’m okay i’ve just been really feeling pressured to write stuff bc the fandom is dying down (guys pls come back) and i am now firmly addicted to the praise and number of notifs i get…. lol. the bonuses have always been weird bc sometimes they come so easily to me like the first one i did was so it goes and i didn’t even have to think about it and then someone said they liked it so i went back and did it to my other fics and started doing it and idk yeah basically what i’m saying is sometimes they’re so easy and other times i have to force myself to come up w something which sucks but people like them so i’m happy to do it!!!!)
(tbh i’ll probably go back and add a bonus to she calls me baby bc i have just a little teeny bit of ocd and it will bother me but also i’m trying to let the little things go but idk we’ll see how strong i am 😭😭)

Twenty questions for fic writers
I was tagged by the wonderful @elenothar! Thankssss❤️
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
45
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
456.761
3. What fandoms do you write for?
I've written for a bunch of fandoms over the years. Currently I'm most active in Guardian and adjacent fandoms, but I think I could and would still write for pretty much everything I've written for in the past. So the full list would be Guardian, the Silmarillion, QZGS, MDZS/CQL, YYM, the Rebel, DMBJ, and some RPF :D
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Counting the promises as yet unbroken (165)
A ballad of burning lungs and bated breath (125)
A hand within a hand (holding light) (120)
Kaleidoscope (114)
Crowded full of parting's feeling (99)
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I try to always respond to comments, bc i myself really like it when an author responds to my comments, so I would be a hypocrite not to do it myself. But also I kind of enjoy that interaction. Especially if ppl have commented on specific lines or on the themes. Sometimes commenters have insights about my fics that even I didn't have myself while writing, and I like to let them know their thoughts were appreciated :)
6. What is a fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Well, I am an angst writer, but I often try to make the endings of my fics at least a bit hopeful :/// I think the angstiest ending to a finished fic would have to go to either Crowded full of parting's feeling, which ends with LXC being (for the first time in his life) truly and utterly alone. Kind of a bummer. Or perhaps the easy part, which ends with ZYL crying himself to sleep on the kitchen floor.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
As I said, I try to make my endings hopeful, if not truly happy, but there are a few true happy endings to my fics! I think my RPF pieces tend to be the happiest bc I am slightly less likely to put these guys through the wringer the way I do with my truly fictional blorbos. I think the happiest however is homecoming, which ends with WJX finally coming out as trans and being her best and truest self.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Not yet??? Hopefully it stays that way! I do write RPF though, so I'm very ready for one of the crazy antis to one day drop into my inbox calling me all sorts of nasty things for *looks at writing scribbled on hand* having the audacity to put characters in fictional situations that don't hurt the real ppl that inspired these characters in any way??? yeah :PPP
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Occasionally, when the muse strikes! But my ace brain finds it quite difficult. My mind tends to trail off and scatter all over the place when I get to the actual smut, and I have a hard time reeling it back in. As a result my smutty fics often get needlessly long xD and they also get a little kinky bc my brain tries to come up with ways to stay engaged in its own writing xD I like testing the limits of how poetic I can be about smut scenes.
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
Almost never. I rarely enjoy reading them unless they are very well done, so I don't generally think of writing them. The only consistent exception to this rule is all the weilan derivative fics! I love those very much, even if I don't always know the characters. So i've written one of those myself: no shame in having loved, a crossover between the Rebel and Detective L, which takes Luo Fei's perspective at snapshots in the Rebel canon, reflecting on everything that Lin Nansheng learns, loses, and cannot seem to stop giving away. It's a sad one, but with a slightly hopeful ending :)
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of? I don't think I'm big enough in any fandom for anyone to consider stealing my work.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Nope, but I have had one podficced :D
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
I have not. On the one hand I think I'd love to try one day, but I'm also very particular about certain things and I fear I might get antsy. I love brainstorming about fic though! Some of my best ideas have come from talking to people.
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
Uhm Weilan I think? I'm not really in fandom for the shipping.
15. What's a wip you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
ohh hard one. I have three, if I may:
And miles to go (before I sleep): it's a story that's still very dear to me, but it's been so long since I started it that I think I'd need to rewrite the whole thing, bc I've gotten better at writing in the meantime and the style of any new chapter wouldn't match the first ones.
First gradually, and then all at once: I wrote all of this in a single week, and then uni got in the way, and then my hyperfixation on YYM ended and since then the fic's been stuck in unfortunate limbo :(((( I really want to finish it but I need the muse to guide me
Tryptich: not yet posted, but fully planned. It's one of the toughest, angstiest, most cathartic fic plots I have ever come up with, and I really want to write it because it is such a meaningful story about mental health and loss and recovery, but it's also YYM fandom, and as established above I need to regain that hyperfixation for this to move anywhere :(((( or just have a lot of free time on my hands where I can write both the guardian fic stuck in my brain and this.
16. What are your writing strengths?
uuhm, I think atmosphere/scene setting, structure, and character study/reflection.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
dialogue tags (bane of my existence). I also think my work can sometimes drag on, I use too many words sometimes. Also I feel like I can be kind of a one trick pony xD I repeat a lot of similar lines and dramatic build-up between stories.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
Can be great when other ppl do it. If it's a language I can read a little bit that's nice , otherwise including a translation at the bottom helps. I'd definitely never write dialogue in a language I'm not fluent in. That being said, I do pay a lot of attention to what language my characters are 'actually' speaking, even if I present their dialogue to my readers in English. For example if would write a phrase like "he pauses to breathe between all three syllables" (which sucks as a line, but bear with me), in an English-language fic where the characters would canonically be speaking Mandarin Chinese, then I would make sure the line that character said would actually contain 3 syllables in both English and Chinese. I do a lot of that kind of reasoning in my head. "If this line, reflecting on dialogue spoken in Y language, was transposed directly into language X that the characters are really supposed to be speaking, would the line still work like this?" if the answer there is no, then I will either change the line, or change the English dialogue until I have something that reflects what I imagine the characters would say in their native language in the way I need!
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Tolkien!
20. Favorite fic you've written?
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CHOOSE??? it's probably either a hand within a hand (holding light) or kaleidoscope.
Thanks again, this was fun!!!

putting you under my microscope back ❤️🐋 and i truly hope you're having a nice day!
4, 6, 7, 9, 14, 17, 22, 24, 29, 34, 37, 48, 50, 52, 56, 57, 73, 80, 85, 91 and 92!
Thank you so much for all of these, it means so much that you return those 'studying you under a microscrope' feelings ! <33333 hoping oll have answered in ways as fascinating to you as your answers were to me
4. "Is trust a big issue for you?"
Yes and no. No as in, I trust people in a sort of guarded way. I'll give Indormation, but not show much deeper than that. Yes as in. Not showing much deeper than that. Honestly, now that I think about it, I don't think there are more than like 4 or 5 people I feel like I can completely trust. But that being said I will also give my followers in general the nuclear launch codes to my psyche for fun. And to me trust isn't a very all or nothing thing, I trust some people very much in some ways but not others, it's just select like that.
6. "What are you excited for?"
Getting new prescription glasses within a few weeks and being able to See Well, especially enough to Drive (I'm not like. Pro-cars, but i would like to Be Able To Do Things and Go Places.)
7. "What happened tonight?"
It's now like 1 pm for me so I will answer for the last night: Got an MRI, it was much easier than I expected. Also a beloved mutual and friend asked me about my blorbo who sucks ass and I have been vibrating with excitement over getting to share all that.
9. "Is confidence cute?"
In my opinion it Can be. Depends how much and depends in what ways. Usually just in addition to other traits, though.
14. "What are you going to spend your money on next?"
Actively avoiding spending money to save it as much as I can, but . The idea of a VPN to use to give you specifically access to Moby Dick (2011).... it tempts me.
17. "Who do you feel most comfortable talking to about anything?"
My best friend of about 7 or 8 years by now. We have unfortunately yet to meet in real life but like. We could tell each other basically anything at this point. We have a very Crozier and Blanky type of dynamic.
22. "Would you ever want to swim with sharks?"
If they're salmon sharks, I'd find it hard to refuse. They're just. Such little guys.....
24. "What do you want right this second?"
For Tubi to allow me to take a screenshot for something i will find funny. And to have more Time. In general.
29. "Do you really, truly miss someone right now?"
Less a person, more a time with them. Several, in fact. And always, though I ignore it as best as I can. And I know in many ways, there are many I shouldn't miss.
34. "Listening to?"
Nothing immediately right now. But I've been listening to more music by The Caretaker. And of course the Moby Dick audiobook. Or one of them.
37. "Do you believe in love at first sight?"
I want to say 'no' because I never have, but there is 1 exception, but I guess it'd depend on what you'd consider sight.
48. "Do you sing in the shower?"
I don't sing in general. There's one person I used to sing to, but I don't know if I'd consider it singing so much as 'monotonous reciting'.
50. "Ever used a bow and arrow?"
No, but I've found the idea Very intriguing and hope to one day.
52. "Do you think musicals are cheesy?"
Yes but I also think that's The Point. They're Supposed To Be. I'm sure some are less than others, I'm only really into a few, but like. I just prefer when they're honestly what they are and don't try to appeal to people who will not like them from the start.
56. "Occupations you wanted to be when you were a kid?"
Dreamed of being a successful career criminal for a while I think. I don't know why I've been asked this before but am just remembering that now.
57. "Do you believe in ghosts?"
In the sense of things being haunted, yes. In other, more literal ways. Depends who's asking. But right now I'll say yes, especially in light of dreams I've had recently. But I believe in things not unlike ghosts, but people who believe in ghosts seem to find hard to believe, so i usually don't bother even saying so, if that makes any sense.
73. "Have you ever cried because you were so happy?"
I'm not sure if happy would be how to describe it, but in emotions I'd consider positive, yes.
80. "Hot tea or cold tea?"
Both, but generally hot tea currently.
85. "Are you patient?"
I really want to be. Like. With other people, in most ways I am. But with myself, much less so, even about small things.
91. "Best room for a fire place?"
A room that is basically also something of a porch. I feel like they have actual names, but the best way I can describe them are just like. Outdoor sort of rooms, where there are a lot of windows or maybe just screens and they're just kind of aside from the rest of the house. I love those rooms in general, though.
92. "Do you want to get married?"
Yes, but not for reasons related to love, necessarily. Yes because I'd like to share income with someone I could trust in that way, and in particular with the only person I feel very much like I could. But in terms of other things, like a life-long partnership of sorts, platonic, romantic, or something else entirely, but still love? I want that with more than just 1 person. But strictly monogamous, romantic love? I do not. Have that with anyone, really, so no.

bias tag game
rules: you're going to pick 10 of your biases (or as many biases as you have and then fill in the rest of the spots with idols you like) and number them 1-10. then answer the questions below! try not to look at the questions before you make your list!
tagged by @yoohyeontual (not gonna lie, i'm still tempted to write @/korimi4) ♡ tagging: @byunbaekhyunie @kangseulqi @kingdomtual @kjisoos @kwon-eunbi @psyoungs @seulggi @soraenun @urons @venompinks and anyone who wants to do this game, consider yourself tagged
yes i am aware most of the biases listed below are no longer active idols but they still hold a special place in my heart ❤️
1.krystal / 2. suzy / 3. yeri / 4. yerin baek / 5. hikaru / 6. kang mina / 7. yeonjun / 8. nana (from woo!ah!) / 9. ahn sohee / 10. luna
1. between 7 and 5, who did you bias first? considering he debuted first, this one goes for yeonjun.
2. between 2 and 6, who are you more attached to? bae suzy ♡ i've grown up with her and i don't think i'll ever stop ulting her
3. if you were to spend the day with either 3 or 1, who would you choose and what would you do? i was hoping to not end up with this kind of question because i know i'm way too awkward and wouldn't know what to say/do. other than that, the only instance where i'd want to meet one of my biases is at a concert, that's it! with that in mind, and after some consideration, i'm choosing krystal because i feel like we relate to some degree with each other. and she'd show me cool places with beautiful architecture.
4. what is your favorite physical feature about 9? i've always thought her face was stunning. i just don't know how to explain it but yeah, beautiful face!
5. what is your favorite part of 6's personality? i'll say her perseverance (had to check the spelling). she went through the whole produce 101 situation, ended up in the final gg. and then she went on to debut with gugudan and had to go through her company not paying enough attention to the group as a whole. when her contract ended, she then chose to pursue a career in acting. and i think that's beautiful because you can see how much effort she puts to reach her goals.
6. if you were to tell 8 anything you wanted, what would you tell them? so many things i want to say... first, i'd like to tell her to never lose her smile because her joy is contagious. also, she is an incredible performer. whenever i watch woo!ah! fancams, my attention is drawn to her because her stage presence is amazing. and you can see how much she likes being on stage and performing songs with her group. so, all in all, nana you're such a fantastic performer and i can't wait to see you perform other songs.
7. between 1 and 2, whose closet would you raid? ... ..... .............. ...................................... it was a rather difficult choice because i like both of their styles but i'm going to go with suzy, especially her guess outfits. they're cute! and the carin glasses were amazing as well. oh and she's also a new longines ambassafor and i'm a big fan of watches so yeah :D suzy wins this one ^^
8. what is a style that you want to see 3 try? i don't know if it's already happened but i totally see yeri rock a retro (60s/70s/80s) concept. and i'm talking about both clothing and music. i think she'd pull it off well. i'm curious to see that
9. between 5 and 4, who are you closer to in height? i really thought it was hikaru but no, it's yerin baek. i'm actually in the middle between the two.
10. between 10 and 9, whose music do you like the best? considering ahn sohee hasn't released solo music, i'll go with luna. even if i had to choose between wonder girls and f(x), i'd still choose f(x) because i like their music better (just a tiny bit)
#this was a fun tag game :)#i don't think i've done this one before#i might have been tagged but my brain couldn't come up with ten biases lmao#it's a miracle i was able to list ten people without much of a struggle *round of applause for me*#funniest thing about this was how long it took me to answer all of that#i wanted to give as thorough an answer as i could#anyways tysm alex for tagging me <3#tag game

Well over a year ago, I made and pinned a post explaining that I was essentially going through a mental rut and that's why I wasn't interacting with people much anymore. To put it simply.
My upper estimate for that "rut" was 2 months. Turns out, I was experiencing the early stages and warning signs for... like, full-on, legitimate burn out, and it hasn't stopped yet. Everything I've read says it can take between a few months and 5 years, which is... scary.
I don't have a lot of followers left, and I haven't interacted in fandoms or with people I admire much at all in a long time. I make efforts here and there, and sometimes I manage to find a blog I really like and I try to interact with it for a little while. It usually pewters out after a couple weeks. All that to say, there's not likely a lotta people who really care what's going on with me- which isn't to say people dislike me or something, just that I'm regarded neutrally because I don't have much of a presence, and I get that.
But for anyone who might care, I'm going through a lot. I haven't gotten my car back in the last year and a half and have given up on it. I had to move out of the apartment I was living from, 6 hours away from my best friend, and back in with my family. College has become an incomplete, distant past. I can't work, I can't take care of myself or my things, I barely do enough to keep my pets alive and relatively healthy... And I literally do not possess the ability to enjoy things or experience passion the way I used to or the way I should. I don't really have hobbies anymore, no goals or aspirations- and I often feel like I've been stripped of my personality.
I spend the majority of my time idly trying to entertain my overactive brain with content that goes in and out without leaving much of a lasting impression, trying to pass time between when I'm not eating, sleeping, or using the bathroom. Bottom line, total honesty- life sucks. And sometimes I don't want to be experiencing it anymore.
I figured, because September is suicide awareness and prevention month, maybe it was time I update the last pinned post to something a little more current.
I'm not planning on going anywhere, speaking on that grander scale. But I've lost a lot of my vigor for life, and I have no idea how long before I feel up to more actively participating in the things that should be bringing me joy again, or even if I will. I'll still be here, occasionally finding ways to sort of interact, but I have nothing to really offer. So... thanks to anyone that still knows who I am, and don't ever feel guilty if we lose touch or you find yourself losing interest in being in contact. Sometimes that's just how it goes.
I'll hold on to that little hope that things get better one day, in the meantime. Don't none of you give up just yet, either. ❤️

a long hello & a short goodbye
TL;DR - i'll be back in the future (though i don't know when) and until then, this blog will be archived.
❤️this is also your cue to unfollow me! please don't worry about offending me or anything like that. in fact, i'm actively asking you to do it haha! i know all too well the sadness of having so many inactive blogs on your following list❤️
💜hellow everyone! how've y'all been? it's been pretty quiet around here, hasn't it? i think i'm way overdue for an explanation and a proper goodbye so here it is!💜
💜i'll keep this short, but simply put, i finished my undergrad a while back and am now pursuing my masters before heading into the 9 to 5 gig forever😆
💜this also has to do in part with the after-effects of the pandemic, which is actually what impacted me the most and the reason why i had to go away. long story short, a lot of processes and things that would happen smoothly in your average academic year were disrupted exactly as i finished my final semester. suffice to say, i haven't had much time to make my usual content (or any content at all, for that matter🥶)
💜couple this with changing interests, just growing up in general and having to make some sacrifices. also tumblr becoming so...hyper-monetized for some reason :/
💜but it's all been worth it because i'm finally discovering my professional interests & place in this world after a long battle with depression and getting into the university that i wanted was the cherry on top!
💜so what does this mean for my blog? i've thought about for a good while and the best option for me right now is to archive it. i've made a lot of content that i'm very proud of and worked very hard on so i have no intention of deleting it blog ever.
💜to all my lovely followers (who stuck around all this while ilysm), amazing moots (i miss u kayla) and everyone i've interacted with here, thank you for being a part of one of the best times of my life! i will forever cherish the memories we made and i wish you all only the best in life~~
💜~may you live long, find your happiness and remember to be kind~💜
love, thea
#istg i don't even remember what i used to tag these#uhhh#about me#psa#it ended up being 'not short' but i think it's justified#love y'all so much

i mean this respectfully! How do you provide for yourself + your son w/ no income? Do you have help? My job keeps us financially comfortable but it is sucking the life out of me ignoring and (what feels like) emotionally neglecting my child for a meaningless office job 40+ hrs/wk. IDK if it's worth it anymore but i am terrified of not being able to provide. TY if you answer ❤️❤️❤️
i really like this question bc i constantly want to speak about it on my blog LMAO
i struggle hard. i get about $240 in child support a month, and if u total everything together, my car, my car insurance, gas, diapers, wipes, food after my food stamps run out, it doesn’t last long and i basically have no savings. while saying all this, before anyone attacks me for being poor and having children despite being poor, i wasn’t poor before domestic violence, and i chose my child over everything. i have always taken care of myself and my family, and now i can’t. many such cases. nothing is ever as black and white.
i will say i but my wipes and diapers from target, with a target account, so i earn money back, and whenever i earn enough back, i pick out small little toys. like he has a gardening set from target and a little car, bought entirely with points from buying diapers.
also, i have amazing friends. a little while ago, when my house flooded, a mutual sent me a large sum of money, with that money i was able to shop secondhand and purchase a lot of 2-4t clothes, meat, and things like oats, fruit i can freeze, and i’m still living off that. i do take advantage of the churches food banks (but i only take whole, real foods, never in cans or packages unless they’re like plain no seed oil raisins) not too long ago, i was able to pick out free clothes from a ministry, so i was able to get clothes that actually fit me:)
i relied on my tax return a lot for extra stuff like getting clothes, more activity sets that i don’t have to makeshift (i don’t mind doing this, like using cardboard for a little hands on activity set) but i have been “randomly selected for screening” by the IRS. LOL many such cases. i haven’t gotten my taxes at all.
basically, i struggle, and some times i get scared bc my car is old. i have amazing friends, lin, rayce, my mom LMFAOOO she’ll buy my child’s milk some times and some snacks that she knows i approve of. most importantly, i pray. and i put lots of faith in god to take care of us. i have a water dispenser, where i fill up water for around $5, three 5 gallon water containers last me around a month or so. i make my own laundry detergent, i have a costco card where i buy bulk toilet paper, use flour sacs as paper towels. i literally just try my best and it always ends up working out. i have debt for sure, like i have my car debt. but i don’t worry too much about it. i’m almost finished paying it off. i should really get into selling my precious moments figurines because i have hundreds.
thank u for such a good question. at the end of the day, i know we go without a LOT of things. but i know that gods earth is totally free, we can walk around the park and run for hours, and that’s our entertainment. i would much rather be with my child than put him in some state funded daycare and work for a dead end job that actually doesn’t care about me. i don’t pay attention to what we don’t have, but rather appreciate what we do have and love my sweet baby with all my being. i just want to be present for him. i don’t know if i’m making sense LOL. i’m sorry. but if i had to be honest, i would say, fuck a job, i’d rather be here with my son. i have been looking at farming positions, and maybe helping someone on their farm in the early mornings, i’d want to bring my child with. and at home positions (as crazy as this sounds) aren’t that much better. constantly in front of a computer would drive me absolutely batshit insane… and would still take time away from my baby. i’m just letting go and letting god. i hope this isn’t too crazy sounding :( i could rly ramble on about this topic!!!

Heyy I hope you're well ❤️ I havent seen any activity on this blog for a while but whenever youre feeling up to it, would you share your favorite fics that you ever wrote? Top 5 or just whatever comes to mind. Feel better ❤️
imagine if you will: me, thinking "oh, what a nice way to return to my blog and also rant about some of my favorite stories." I take like 30 minutes to link some fics with little author notes about why they are my favorites. Tumblr shits, and all of it is lost. I am very normal and cool about it. ANYWAYS. 5. Thinking Outside the Box - Hanzo / Reader / Cassidy(McCree) This one was just a fun request that turned into a fun story, I find myself thinking about this one often--I'd love to expand on the idea in an original story at some point.
4. Conference - Carlos Oliveira / Reader BARKBARKBARKBARKBARK--ahem. This one was more about the flirting than the actual smut, but even I was impressed with how well both turned out. Plus, Carlos.
3. How Noble - Professor Venomous / Reader
Most of my best fics usually come from the random bursts of inspiration that have me writing 5k words in a single night like a madman. Less time to lose motivation = More attention during editing, meaning they come out nice and polished. I had always wanted to do a story with a Fetlife-esque social media aspect, and it turned out exactly how I wanted it to. Though, I have considered going back and sprucing up the smut itself. 2. Christmas Gift - Karl Heisenberg / Reader While not my #1 favorite overall, it's easily my favorite in terms of the smut. Since writing porn over and over can get stale, I really relished in the breath of fresh air that was this story. I could tell when I was planning that the premise could be really unique, so I gave it my all to make something exciting even to me and I think it really shines through. 1. What You'll Do - Michael Myers / Reader This fic, when I planned it out, was much more shallow than it wound up being. I still remember the first chapter, going from an unattached opening to writing 13k words in 3 days, exhausted yet compelled forth like a puppet. It turned out way different, my characterization of Michael is shoddy at best, but the story just erupted out of me, and wound up becoming the piece I feel has the most soul out of anything I've ever written, especially in the second chapter. I do plan on writing a 3rd and final chapter at some point, but that would probably require an insane burst of motivation like the ones that created parts 1 and 2.
