[bengals-barnesbabe]

boys night has some perks…

You were there when the ‘Step Brothers’ Group FaceTime call happened. Andrei jumped up upon seeing Gesicki’s signed contract, Charlie was already yelling ‘I told you so’s’ and Chase was just happy to be included.

You heard their plans to celebrate and knew they were gonna have the ultimate boy’s night. And you didn’t bet an eye when Andrei kissed you goodbye.

Why? Because your island boyfriend is very predictable and precious when he gets drunk.

Andrei’s only smoked a handful of times around you, he prefers to be high on life. But when he goes out, best believe the drinks are flowing.

You only attend this parties if you know Mike and Chase’s wives are gonna be there. But Andrei said it was strictly the core four. And you had no problem with it.

Because Andrei’s amusingly loyal and turns into the biggest simp when he gets drunk. It usually only takes 3 full drinks or 5 shots to get him to that point. And boy is it entertaining.

So about an hour after he left, you were sitting in the couch watching a ridiculous comedy when he started calling.

Upon answering it was loud, you knew there was a party bus involved but you could not tell where exactly he was.

“Hi baby. How’s the party, Drei?”

“Babyyyyy, my perrrfect island princess…”

You giggle as he draws out her name drunkenly. “Yes my cocobutt?”

Andrei’s cute laugh comes through easily. “Haiiiii…”

“Hi handsome, are you having a good time?”

“Oh yeah! The best! But but but buttttt…”

Here it comes.

“Babeeeee I miss youuu… I wanna cuddle and put my face in your boobs…” He finishes with another giggle.

“Is that so? What about your friends?” You snort.

The line goes silent for a second. “Youuuu’re my best friend, Princess.”

“Then what are you doing at a party instead being home with me?” You chuckled.

“Fuck. I don’t know? I’m coming home! Right now! Wait where’s my phone?” He mumbles.

You have to hold yourself back from laughing any harder. “Drei, baby. You’re talking to me on it.”

“Ohhhh! I’m coming princess sushi!”

You finally let out all the giggles as the line goes dead and start a small timer in your head for how long it takes him to actually get home.

Just like how all boys nights end for your boyfriend, he ends up cuddled up in your arms, his rest resting on your chest as he sleeps the excitement from the party off.

And you wouldn’t have it any other way.

A/N: blurb-a-thon will continue for all the March Madness contestants🧡

Happy 1300 followers! So so happy for you 🥹

Can I get “We said forever but forever wouldn’t wait for us” with JJ please?

Thank you so much! I’m sorry for the heartbreak you’re about to read, it is my specialty.

Prompt list: All Time Low Lyric Prompts #13: “We said forever but forever wouldn’t wait for us” (Last Young Renegade | Last Young Renegade (2017)

(I wrote this twice because I decided I hated what I wrote the first time)

Also: cambank sibling supremacy.

Banners and balloons covered the gymnasium of Kildare County High School like it was straight out of a terrible nineties movie. Across a makeshift stage, the largest banner read “Welcome Back Kildare County Class of ‘21!”

Savannah Holland, known to everyone she’d gone to school with as Van, held back the sarcastic laugh as she stood in line to get her name tag, frowning as she read it. The name haunted her, memories of a different life.

Savannah (Holland) Maybank.

“I’m sorry, Van.” The girl in charge’s face had a look of sympathy for the brunette. “We’d already sent them to the printer when we found out about your divorce.”

“It’s okay, Clara.” She assured her. “It’s not like I don’t see it everyday. Hudson and Josie have his last name. I’ll see you around.”

Before she had time to process the people around her, an arm slung itself around her shoulder, making her turn to find the face of her high school best friend and the godmother of her twins, Sarah Cameron, or rather Routledge now.

“Girl, I know we don’t talk like we should” she started “but imagine my surprise when I get home from a business trip to find out JJ has moved back to the island, alone.”

“Well that tends to happen when you get a divorce, Sarah.” She sighed.

The blonde froze, staring at her friend with wide eyes. “Divorce? JJ said it was a separation.”

“Of course he did.” Van sighed. “The fight was so stupid, Sarah. He got a job offer in Chapel Hill, director of the new branch the company was opening. He wanted to take it, I didn’t want to move across the country again. Especially with five year old twins and after my family had already uprooted their lives to move to California. I didn’t realize it was going to be a deal breaker.”

“Six years ago, I stood next to you at your wedding.” Sarah told her. “My brother is an idiot by all means, but he did tell you forever, that you couldn’t get rid of him.”

Van sighed, looking across the gym to make brief eye contact with the blonde half brother of her best friend. JJ didn’t hold her gaze for very long, especially because they’d spoken briefly when he’d picked her and the kids up from the ferry. Co parenting was hard, even more so when you lived on different sides of the country.

“Yeah well, we said forever.” She didn’t break eye contact with her ex-husband now. “But forever wouldn’t wait for us.”

The OC-A-THON!

Tag a buddy and add your OC. You can do a Bio (Like the one below), a picture, a blurb, whatever! Just do something creative and original and show it off!

And tag some bodies at the end.

Age: Possibly 30, probably much older.

Here's mine.

Name: Michael Greene

Description: A somewhat unkempt man in a black hoodie, working blue jeans and heavy work boots. His eyes are tired, and he doesn't smile with his teeth.

Occupation: Enforcer/Problem Solver for The Ecehlon, and organization run by some of the most famous Monsters in the world with the express purpose of stopping other Monsters from blowing their cover.

Bio: Originally an orphan child taken in by a church, he worked in his youth as the candle lighter until one night a terrible storm destroyed the small village. When the candles went out, Michael stopped being Michael and became something else altogether. Something with infinite teeth, insatiable hunger, and a marked indifference to the sanctity of life. Many, many years later, Michael is a Monster in the employ of Monsters, working cases of an inhuman nature to subdue, apprehend, or most often kill things man was not meant to know. This is vitally important to his boss because if man were to know, they would undoubtedly respond violently, and there are just so many more humans than monsters these days. In the Dark, he is a thing of terror and nightmare and virtually unkillable. In the Light, he is a grumpy man with poor social skills and a sour disposition, but he is still determined to use what he calls his curse (and a baseball bat when the moment calls for it) to good ends.

Quirk: He drives an old Jeep because he can keep it running, and he does not, nor does he want to own anything more modern than 1970s technology, if only so he can limit how his partner can get in touch with him.

Likes: Light bulbs, sunny days, and a decent sized breakfast.

Hates: Slasher villains, The Hook Man, and Sea Monsters.

✧ ˚ 　· 　　 . Kirby plays a little matchmaker. Charlie likes your costume and after a lil public make out, decides to take you back to his place..✧ ˚ 　· 　　 .

❝ Isn’t it a little crass? I mean people are here dressed like the psycho.❞ you’re standing in the corner of the Stab-A-Thon after party with a black plastic cup in your right hand as your eyes dart around the thickening crowd that still lingers in the old movie theater. 

Kirby nudges you in the side and nods to your classmate, Charlie. ❝ He used to be obsessed with me, remember? He hasn’t spoken to me in over  two weeks now. It’s been really peaceful.❞ she laughs when she says it. You find yourself pinned by a pair of high def baby blues and you raise the cup to your lips, taking a thoughtful sip.

Kirby’s still blathering on about her latest conquest, some fuckboy frat brother from State, and you’re pretending to listen but you’re not hearing a word. And everything going on around you both is just faded, it becomes background noise til it’s totally gone.

You don’t even realize you’ve been staring for the better part of five minutes until one of Kirby’s friends wanders over and clears her throat, snapping her fingers in your face. As Kirby follows your gaze, she smirks to herself and speaks up after taking a sip from her cup. ❝ Let’s go circulate, Em.. Leave __ to hold up the wall for a little while.❞ 

The pair of teenage girls exchange looks and wander away and you’re content to go back to people watching. You’ve just turned away to get yourself some more heavily spiked punch from the big glass bowl sat on the table when you hear a throat clear from behind you.

You whirl around, red punch sloshes out of your cup and right onto the front of Charlie Walker’s favorite plaid button up. You swear under your breath and grab for napkins as you apologize profusely and try to use the napkins to mop up the stain. Charlie’s standing taller, he normally slouches, normally, he doesn’t care to be noticed.

But he’s done everything he can think of lately where you’re concerned and not a single thing has worked. If you’re ever alone with him, you’re quick to bolt, you barely speak or there’s this thick tension that settles in and threatens to choke him to death.

But when Kirby wandered over earlier, she seemed determined to think he should give it another shot, yet again. Some bullshit about the way you’re always staring at him. Or you volunteer for things that honestly don’t interest you at all, like say, Film Club.. It all went in one ear and right out the other but now that he’s standing in front of you, it’s playing over and over again in his head like a broken record on repeat. 

Your hands are shaking just a little as you frown to yourself. The stain isn’t budging, if anything, it’s spreading. You want to disappear into the floor, this wouldn’t have happened if you didn’t have such a crush on the older boy that you turn into a total nervous wreck when he’s around. 

Charlie chuckles quietly. Wordlessly, he unbuttons the shirt and ties it around his waist, leaving him in a white tank top. You nearly choke on the gum you’re chewing at the sight of biceps that stay perpetually hidden away by the oversized tees and button downs that Charlie seems to favor. 

He steps up into you, your lower back meets the edge of the snack table with a soft smack. He’s patting you between the shoulders and you finally manage to clear the chewed gum out of your airways enough to breathe again, laughing softly at yourself for being so easily flustered.

❝ You’re new, right? I think we have 3rd together.. And you joined Film Club last week too.. Didn’t you? I thought I saw you at the last meeting when Trae was being such a fuckin dick and tryin to scare you..❞ he knows damn well you’re in that class and Film Club, same as he knows the rest of your schedule like the back of his hand. You’re the daughter of horror royalty. Or so rumor has it you’re the daughter of Tatum Riley, one of the OG victims. Because it’s the only theory that makes any sense. Why else would Officer Riley leave town and return from a much needed vacation with a teenager who just happens to bear an eerie resemblance to the sister he lost years before? 

Not to mention, he thinks to himself, she’s a fucking knockout. 

❝ Yeah.❞ you mutter quietly. When your tongue drags over the outline of your mouth, Charlie’s fist clenches and he has to fight back a whimper. The same as every single time you wear those little skirts or sundresses to class and you constantly uncross and recross your legs the whole damn time.

❝ Have you been interviewed for the video yearbook yet?❞ he’s in charmer mode now, baby blues flit over a racy little black cat costume and the way the dress of it is not only short, it’s tight enough to fit like a second skin. ❝ No, I haven’t.❞ you mumble your answer in a daze, falling quiet again just so you don’t make things super awkward or say something dumb. 

He chuckles quietly and nods to the black cat costume you’re wearing for the night. ❝ Cute costume. You know black cats are bad luck though, right?❞

You laugh and shake your head. ❝ Bullshit! That’s only if they cross your path.❞ and you’re not stupid, you’re starting to become aware of the fact that your current hallway crush is flirting. Hard. So maybe this encourages your decision to flirt back. Harder. You step up to him and bite your lip, your head tilted to stare up at him as you drag a finger over the front of his tank top.

Charlie can’t stop the quiet whimper when it comes. You giggle softly and speak up again, ❝ Now if a black cat chooses you, Charlie…❞ you muse thoughtfully as your hand curls in the front of his tank top and you melt into him even more, ❝ that’s actually good luck.❞

He steps up into you even closer. He thinks that he’ll go overboard, you’ll get skittish like you seem to with the other boys, so he’s shocked when instead of you rushing away -saving your own life, he thinks to himself, you’re all batting lashes and soft, velvety voice as your nose grazes against the tip of his and you mumble softly, ❝ You gonna kiss me or not, Charlie Walker?❞

Baby blue eyes widen and he nearly chokes on his own drink. Then he smirks and the plastic cup finds a space on the snack table at your back as he leans in just a little closer, big hands squeezing at your soft and curvy little body as his mouth makes a determined march towards your own. ❝ Didn’t know you wanted me to, _ Riley..❞ is mumbled soft against your lips as his tongue parts them,dominating your own. 

Your hands catch in his ponytail and you pull it free. The kiss deepens and Charlie’s hands settle on your ass, squeezing as he lifts you just enough to sit you on a clear spot on the table, stepping between your legs as his hands roam over your body. You’re clumsily rubbing yourself against him and when your mouth strays first, he’s whimpering ❝ Fuck.❞ under his breath as he leans down into you heavily. The kiss breaks and he smirks a little because your red lipstick is smeared. You’re still working on catching your breath, clinging to his body as you laugh softly to yourself.

❝ You uh.. Interested in a private showing of the extended version of Stab? At my house?❞ Charlie asks against the shell of your ear as you giggle and lean into him again to whisper against his ear, ❝ Very. Can we like.. Can we leave now? Pretty please?❞

He scoops you off the table and as he’s carrying you out the door, Robbie stops him. ❝ Dude, you’re blowing off the after party?❞

But you’re squirming in his arms and nipping at his neck and quite frankly, Charlie only hung out this long because he was working up the nerve to try and approach you again in the first place, so he chuckles as he nods at Robbie’s question. ❝ Gonna have my own after party, Mercer.❞

Robbie’s hand rests against the back of his head and as he watches the two of you walk out the door together, he laughs to himself and shakes his head. ❝ Yeah, there’s no way Trevor’s right about Charlie being one of the killers this time. The idiot’s been too busy chasing Officer Riley’s niece all over town since she moved here…❞

Before going with Frontier, we need to some extensive lore check-up.

One notable difference you will see with Frontier compared other Series is that Frontier has no partner Digimon, since the cast are the Digimon.

Konaka has extensive details as to why this is, so we will ignore those, and explain what this means for the series.

***First off, rather than having a large main cast, the cast is reduced by half, thanks to the absence of partner Digimon. You might think this means more focus on the human cast, but the exact opposite occurs.

***Secondly, due to the absence of partner Digimon, there are no recurring Digimon to be bothered with, so instead the focus on the temporary party member Digimon, and Digimon of the Day. Since there are no Digimon to bother with, this also means no Evolution Sequences for them, which means any, and all Digimon can appear as random Characters of the Day.

***Thirdly, since there are no present partner Digimon, and the cast's screentime is limited, this means the focus on Character of the Day Digimon cannot be interrupted. This further means, rather than providing episodic character development, that valuable screentime can instead be used to familiarise the audience with the ecosystem, and behaviour of Digimon, similar to episodic Pokémon appearances.

This means all the extensive lore blurbs can be used as episode plots, significantly lowering the need for writing.

***Fourthly, since the only a limited of Spirit Forms actually matter, the focus on many, many Adult, and Armor forms can occur instead of introducing new gradual threats. Massive backlog of mid-stage Digimon, and recolors can now actually matter, since the greater plot is largely unimportant.

****This is supposed to be more in line of ATLA/ARC-V/SPOP style of writing, where the conflicts in Frontier would serve as a backdrop to actual events of the episode, but would gradually increase in tension, eventually converging in the same place. This does not actually occur in Frontier, leaving most of the episodes as just introduction to the Digital World lore.

*****However, this approach can theoritically be done in a hypothetical Frontier reboot, but due to disassociation of with V-Pet lines, this is unlikely.

***Fifth, since there is no partner Digimon, there are no Digivice V-Pets to sell. Instead, Frontier has D-Scanner toys, which are collect-a-thon devices, designed to collect as many Digimon as possible instead of raising them. Though conventional V-Pets would exist in Frontier era, they would be largely disconnected from the show, and its marketing, and the franchise's focus will occasionally shift from raising Digimon to collecting them, with Savers returning to V-Pet aspect, and Xros Wars going with the collecting aspect.

This is very signficant, but it is not an aspect that sticks much. Appmon sub-franchise would go heavily on the collecting aspect, but eventually last two series, Adventure reboot, and Ghost Game will return to raising aspect.

Dustin flips through his notecards and clears his throat. For someone who is seemingly always boisterous, he feels nervous about addressing the crowd. He wants to do a great job.

He thinks back to when you and Eddie first met, the summer following Eddie's high school graduation. You'd come home from college for the semester break. It was a gorgeous afternoon, sunny but not humid, and you'd gone to the park to read a book. Eddie had decided to move Hellfire outdoors, wanting to take advantage of the nice weather.

You were sitting on a bench, flipping through the pages, when Eddie, Dustin, and the remaining Hellfire members plunked down at a nearby picnic table.

"Sorry if we get too loud," a voice says to you. When you lift your eyes from the page, you see the tall, lanky, curly-haired metalhead smiling at you. "Gets, uh, kinda intense."

You give him a smile. "No worries," you tell him. "If I wanted peace and quiet, I would've gone to the library."

Eddie gestures to the DnD board. "You play?"

You shake your head apologetically. "Nope. It looks interesting, though."

"You can watch, if you want," he says. "You don't have to. I mean, I don't wanna interrupt your reading."

"It's cool. I've reread this book, like, 500 times already," you laugh. "I'm a sucker for Tolkien."

"M-me, too," he shoves his hands in his back pockets. "Here, come sit next to me. Best view of the game."

And so you spend the next few hours watching the guys play, cheering when they finally managed to beat Eddie's campaign.

"That was a lot of fun," you tell the group, helping them pack everything away. "I love how you guys get so into it."

"Told ya it was intense," Eddie teases. His smile becomes nervous as he says, "If you wanna, y'know, give me your number, I can call you. Maybe you can play with us next time."

"For sure," you scribble down your number on a piece of scrap paper. "Just let me know when and where."

And as you grab your book and head to your car, Eddie turns to Dustin and says, "Just you wait, Henderson; I'm going to marry that girl one day."

Dustin tells this story now, grinning from ear to ear. You're in a long white dress, and Eddie's in a suit and tie. He can't stop admiring the newest ring that adorns his finger; the one that symbolizes your union.

"You really said that?" you whisper to him, placing a kiss on his cheek.

He grabs your hand and squeezes it lovingly. "I knew even then," he says, "I knew you were the one for me."

✨ 2022 Writing Year In Review ✨

Thanks to @feeisamarshmallow​ for tagging me!

1. Number of stories posted to AO3: 12

2. Word count posted for the year: 299,454

3. Fandoms I wrote for: Criminal Minds

4. Pairings: Luke Alvez/Spencer Reid, Aaron Hotchner/Spencer Reid, lots of friendship stuff between the team

5. Story with the most:

Kudos: A Collection of Blurbs Featuring Autistic Spencer Reid with 844

Bookmarks: Also A Collection of Blurbs Featuring Autistic Spencer Reid with 242

Comments: bau super seven loving-reid-a-thon with 159 comment threads

6. Work I’m most proud of (and why):

to seek and to find the narrow way. it's so personal and i was so nervous to post it because of the religious themes but i'm really pleased with how it turned out and i've gotten some amazing feedback <3

7. Work I’m least proud of (and why):

secret storm. i'm not not proud of it! but i wrote it for a challenge and i think i rushed it a little and could've done a lot more with it if i'd given it the time it deserved.

8. Share or describe a favorite review you received:

there's one person who's been reading you don't have to be sorry for doing it on your own and leaving long, detailed comments on every single chapter. i love this person so much. every comment from them makes me cry, they quote my work and talk about what they liked and what they're looking forward to. it's a writer's dream.

9. A time when writing was really, really hard:

writing the little scenes that i have to get through to get to what i really want to be writing. it's so hard to slog through sometimes, but it's always worth it once i make it to the good part and it gets easy again.

10. A scene or character you wrote that surprised you: 

an upcoming chapter of you don't have to be sorry for doing it on your own has a nightmare aftermath scene that i wasn't planning at all but i'm really into it now that i'm writing it and i'm excited to see how it affects the story as a whole. it literally came out of nowhere but i love it so, so much. also, that fic as a whole has surprised me - it started as a really long oneshot and now i'm at about 75k and only halfway done.

11. A favorite excerpt of your writing:

“Oh. Sorry.”

“What are you sorry for?” Morgan asks. 

“Keeping you here. Falling asleep on you. Trauma dumping on you.”

“You didn’t trauma dump on me. I asked questions and you answered. And I don’t mind that you fell asleep on me. You clearly needed the rest.”

Spencer buries his face in his hands. “I don’t usually talk about these things.” 

“I know, kid.”

“I don’t like talking about these things.”

“I know.”

“I don’t want this to change our friendship,” Spencer sighs. “I don’t want things to be weird from now on. I don’t want you to treat me differently.”

“It won’t change anything,” Morgan promises. “I won’t treat you differently.”

“I don’t want you to be worried about me all the time now.”

“Reid. I was already worried about you all the time.”

from you've got a friend

12. How did you grow as a writer this year: 

i wrote a lot this year! i did a lot of sprints, and that made me really productive, and i forced myself to write even when i didn't want to. and i think that was good for me. i also have been making a conscious effort to write what i want to write and not what other people necessarily want to read, and not getting hung up on hits or kudos or comments. if i start worrying too much about what people are going to think about what i'm writing, i stop and regroup and go back to writing what i want, even if that means deleting a whole bunch of stuff.

13. How do you hope to grow next year:

i want to better balance my writing time with the rest of my life. i'm not always good at determining how much writing is enough and how much is too much, and i neglect other aspects of my life in favor of writing which isn't always healthy. i do want to continue to write for me, though. and i've started a trend of writing a chapter ahead in chapter fics so i don't get overwhelmed, and i want to keep that up because it's working really well. i also want to put more effort into brainstorming for the discord fic because i love that one and i feel like i've neglected it a little lately.

14. Who was your greatest positive influence this year as a writer (could be another writer or beta or cheerleader or muse etc etc): 

chris (@domestikhighway58) and maze (@tobias-hankel) have been so supportive and encouraging and spent so much time sprinting with me and chatting with me and reading my little snippets and keeping me motivated to keep writing. they also both write amazing fics that inspire me to write, period. i am endlessly grateful to both of them.

15. Anything from your real life show up in your writing this year:

i mean, i write fanfiction to process my emotions and issues, so yes, a lot of my real life shows up in my writing. spencer's coping mechanisms are my coping mechanisms. his stims are my stims. his autistic traits are my autistic traits. i have dozens of unfinished fics in my google drive that i've used to process issues in my marriage. also, spencer's therapist in one fic is an exact copy of my favorite former therapist, all the way down to her first name.

16. Any new wisdom you can share with other writers:

write what you want to write and don't worry about what anyone else is going to think. if there's something you're dying to read and no one's written yet - write it! if you have an idea that won't leave you alone - write it! don't worry about if it's good or if other people are going to like it. you are the most important audience. just do the thing!

17. Any projects you’re looking forward to starting (or finishing) in the new year:

i'm really enjoying writing you don't have to be sorry for doing it on your own and now that i have an idea of where it's going to end up, i can't wait to get there. we're only about halfway through, so there's still a lot yet to come, and i can't wait to find out what that is, haha. Besides that, i guess we'll just see what happens. i've spontaneously written a couple of oneshots in the past few weeks and i'd like to do more of those in the future instead of always getting stuck in my long fics.

Welcome

Hello lovely, welcome to my blog! Not sure where you came here from, but wherever it was we’re glad to have you here now. Now before I talk about the fun stuff let me get my rules and regulations out of the way

Please do not interact with this blog if you are here to spread negativity. 

If I see that have sent, commented, or posted any homophobic, racist, transphobic, fatphobic, or anything considered hate speech (or rude/degrading to someone) I will block you no questions asked

Also, please do not send any nude images of you or anybody else to me through the messaging system, or any other way. It is rude and I would prefer not to see it. 

Now that my yelling is over, let’s get to know a little about me! 

I prefer not to post my age on social media, please respect that

I use she/her pronouns

I am part of the LGBTQ+ community! Currently I am discovering and figuring out my sexuality. I haven’t found a proper label for my feelings

I’ve been a slytherin since childhood, though my close friends insist I’m a hufflepuff

I am a proud mother of one adorable fur-baby (her name is tessie) 

I am a big fan of marvel and criminal minds 

My personality type is INFJ 

I HAVE ADHD 

If there is anything else you’d like to know feel free to send it in the questions or message me! 

Lastly, I often tag my random posts here’s a key: 

random blurbs/rants/talks as “#talks with ana” 

late night/very early morning post as “#ana after dark” 

reactions to sent images as “#anaactions” 

my spooky season marathon rants and randomness will be under “#​SPOOK-A-THON”

I’m always looking for new moots! Links to my other blogs and accounts will be posted on a different post, have a great day darling

i’ve got a jason grace blurb to post …… 🧍‍♂️ still trying to figure out what to do for my 1k though because i should do SOMETHING (maybe a little songfic blurb-a-thon?? u can give me a song lyric/song from a playlist i make or a list of artists or just any song i know and i can write a little blurb abt a character of ur choosing?? idk!! who knows!!) i’d say maybe a qna but i don’t think there’s any aspect of me that’s interesting enough to validate a bunch of questions so the blurb one seems much more fun!! i’m still working on other fics/requests ofc but i’d love to do a celebration u guys deserve it

[stellarstarwarsimagines]

Well, I just hit 200 followers on this blog, so I think it’s about time I do my first celebration! I’ve decided to take this Friday and Saturday, and do a sort of blurb-a-thon! Send me a prompt, and I’m going to do my best to have it posted by Friday or Saturday! I’ll be taking requests all the way up until Saturday, and will not be closing them. I’ve reblogged a list of prompts here if you need some inspiration, but you can send whatever you like! There’s a list of people I write for in my bio, but I’m really feeling Poe, Din Djarin, Obi-Wan and Anakin lately.  Any of the characters on my page can be requested though, so go ahead and start sending them in!

I also wanted to thank each and every person that follows this blog. You have no idea what it means to me to know that this many people consider my writing good enough to follow. Don’t ever underestimate how much you’re appreciated. I love each and every one of you <3

SEASON OF THE SPLICER!

Destiny fans... We know there’s lots, and boy is this one for ALL of you! Today’s premiered trailer for Destiny 2: Season Of The Splicer has blown our heads wide open and has us gasping to share it with you!

Running from 11th May - 24th August, you can bet your last bullet you’ll see us there alongside you for the drop! Take a look at the trailer above and you’ll see the reason for hype level: 100.

Want some background info on story? We’ve included the blurb below so you’re in the know:

“The Vex have plunged the Last City into an endless night, threatening the safety once found beneath the watchful presence of the Traveler. It is here, bathed in perpetual moonlight, that Ikora reveals the identity of an unlikely ally that may hold the keys to triumphing over this attack. 

Mithrax, Kell of the House of Light, leads a small group of Eliksni who wish to be closer to the Traveler. As a Sacred Splicer, he possesses the knowledge needed to combat the Vex technology that ensnares the Last City. There is a bond of Light shared here… will it be enough?

Stored away, deep in the Vault of Glass on Venus is Atheon, Time’s Conflux. No one knows what this Vex is. Guardians must access the Vault, navigate the fractures in space and time, and terminate Atheon before it can become an unstoppable threat.”

We’re locked and loaded for another shoot-a-thon and have every faith that Bungie will deliver!

“Find him, Guardian...”

On it! We hope to see you online a week today, that’s 11th May!

-Jack

The Let’s All Be Nice & Maybe Help Save the USPS Fic-A-Thon

Hello there, internet! So, in the last few weeks I’ve been for real struggling with writing and, just like, life in general, as I’m sure some of you are as well. Because, let’s be honest, things are stressful and while we all see those posts that are like you’ve got so much time, create things that is often easier said than done. But, Laura, you say! The title of this post includes the words fic-a-thon!

Yes, it does. 

Because in my stressed-out state, I’d still really like to do something vaguely productive and possibly helpful and while I’m not sure that includes full-fledged fic or stories, I’m at least ninety-two percent positive it could include drabbles. Possibly even blurbs. And all of them delivered in my handwriting to your door. 

I do my best to not get super political on here, but the US Postal Service is also going through it now. And that’s not great. Along with all the other not-great things going on in the world. So, in an attempt to counter some of that decidedly not-great, I’m going to buy a bunch of stamps and envelopes and am ready to write and send fic. To you! Yeah, you! What do you have to do, exactly?

Send me an ask or a message with your address. If that’s weird for you, no worries. I am a stranger on the internet, so I get it. But I can guarantee I will not share this information with anyone, and all you’ll get from me is the fic. 

What pairing you’d like the fic to be about. I’m pretty open on that front. Basically any couple in Once Upon a Time, or even The 100, really. As well as original work of mine. So if you want more on Olivia and Nick from Out of the Park, totally legit. 

Any sort of prompt you’d be interested in. Bed sharing. Mutual pining. Fake dating. All fair game. 

Anything you don’t want. This is a nice-people thing. The last thing I want to do is write something you aren’t interested in. 

Honestly, get as specific as you want. Or not. Most of my writing can be found on Ao3, so if you want to see if there’s anything there you want more of or something you wish I’d written about instead, go for it. The world is a mess and everything is super stressful, but getting mail is fun and I hope this can be fun.
