_________________________

Honestly, it doesn't really feel like anything else Luke has ever felt in his life. His stomach twists painfully, anxious, and his heartbeat echoes in his ears. His forehead is lined with sweat, and he knows he's not getting any sleep tonight. He tries to shift, get comfortable, but nothing really works.

Well, if he had to compare it to something, it feels like a really bad shit.

But that feels disingenuous, and it hurts his pride a little as a lyricist, and also, he's, well, a little offended on Calum's behalf.

Calum.

Fuck.

Luke breathes out carefully, slowly, trying not to make a sound. Now that he knows, he's almost scared that any sudden movements would scare the thought away, as if anything could change the way this feeling is written into his bones.

Calum. He loves Calum. Well, he knew that. But…

He's. In love with Calum.

Luke tastes the words in his mouth, feeling the shape around his lips, tries to imagine saying it out loud.

“Cal,” he mouths. “Calum.”

Calum, in the hotel bed next to him, says nothing. Thank god.

And, like, it's terrible timing, is the thing. They've just barely started tour; Luke has months upon months of nights like this one to look forward to. Waking up next to Calum, getting breakfast with the rest of the band, wandering whatever city they find themselves in. Stumbling into restaurants, and Calum will still order nuggets and fries in all the respectable establishments like he never grew up past fourteen. Playing their show, audience electric, Calum magnetic, Luke's heart bursting to the melody of Calum’s bassline.

And then there's the issue of Calum himself, the things Luke never let himself notice, until he couldn't stop it anymore. Warm, brown eyes, soft curls, the thing that happens to the corner of his mouth when Luke makes him smile, the sound of his fucking laugh.

Calum, his best friend. Calum who takes him seriously, who has his back, who eggs him on and pushes him harder. “Calum,” he tries again, barely a whisper.

Calum who makes him feel like no one else - well, no fucking shit.

“I'm gonna die,” Luke tells himself, miserable. In the bed next to him, Calum shifts.

“Fuck me,” Luke hisses.

Calum rolls over, rubs his eyes blearily. “Fuck you?”

“No,” Luke sighs. “Don't.”

“Oh, okay,” Calum says, and then his face is in his pillow again.

Luke exhales. He glances at his phone, charging on the table next to him: 3:42 AM. He sighs again. They’re supposed to do the Eiffel Tower tomorrow - Calum had wanted to race him to the top. Which, like, absolutely not, Luke doesn't do cardio in public. Still, Luke wants to catch Calum in that light, Paris under him.

Calum’s head pops up again, gopher-like. Luke imagines playing whack-a-mole and has to swallow a hysterical laugh.

“- time is it?” Calum asks through a yawn. Luke tells him.

“Shit,” Calum says, and fuck, he's beautiful, even like this. How has Luke survived this long? “You okay?”

Luke clears his throat. “Yeah.” Because he is, really - terrified, sure, but okay. He's okay with loving Calum whatever way he can.

“Liar,” Calum says, like it's the easiest thing in the world. He pushes his blankets out of the way, crosses the room to get to Luke, flops down next to him. “You don't have to tell me, but try to get some sleep.”

Luke sighs. “Cal-”

“Shh,” Calum whispers, and then Luke is wrapped up in his arms and pushed into his chest. His legs tangle with Calum’s, curling in on himself to fit in his embrace.

Luke waits to say it until Calum's breathing evens out.

“You're my best friend,” he whispers into the corner of Calum's neck.

“Love you too,” Calum whispers back, immediate, sure, steady.

Summary: yiling_patriarch: first time making a cake with alcohol! it’s still in the oven but it smells great so far ↳ Gusu Lan Kitchen: There is no alcohol listed in the ingredients for this recipe. yiling_patriarch: i didn’t have any oranges or orange juice so i replaced those with a can of orange sparkling margarita! tasted super weird [★★☆☆☆] ↳ Gusu Lan Kitchen: Are you being deliberately obtuse? OR: life is tough for baker!lwj when online troll!wwx won't stop commenting on his recipe blog Kay's comments: A modern Wangxian love story told through recipes and comments on a recipe blog! Really enjoyed it and the recipes are inspired by actual recipes as well, so you can even try them out yourself. Seeing how Wangxian's relationship developed through comments was really fun and nothing I had seen before! Excerpt: Wei Wuxian, The video you sent, while unnecessary, looks fine, as do the scones you made. I do not wish to receive a sample by mail. Do you have any specific concerns about the recipe you wish to address? Regards, Lan Wangji P.S. As a mechanical engineer, how have you managed to struggle so much with all of my recipes? They are extremely straightforward, especially if you have a basic understanding of science, as you apparently do.

This amazing fic, coming from this prompt

Let me tell you, I am talking about THE CRACKFIC

I’m talking about an argument, turned into a joke, turned into an outing, turned into a roasting battle

I am not joking this is golden

Big thanks to @dick-helmet-magneto for making something out of the nonsense that I spit in here

Fic rec for princess cake?

Omg I love this bc I'm pretty sure I've read every single princess cake fic on AO3

Here's a list of my favs.

"For those who believe" by GufettoGrigio.

So so so so good. There's LIGHT smut in it but other than that it's wonderful. So beautiful and just great in general. It made me giggle a little too.

"Cause and Effect" by MasterEyebrow.

This one is so cute and funny. The dynamic between them is so real. I HIGHLY recommend. It's honestly so good bc the author wrote them so well.

"How (un)expected" by aegirs

LOVE LOVE LOVE this one. It's short but so sweet. It also made me laugh a lot and Seb is such a menace in it.

"Percentages" by akirakurosawa

I read this fic, didn't bookmark it and lost it, then went SEARCHING for it so I could reread it. This fic is so adorable and so well written. It's probably my favorite princess cake fic...

[undertale-fic-librarby]

Hi

Do you have any reader in Undertale fics?

They could be romance (slow burn with angst if so) /(AUs also count) or with no romance.

Preferably completed if possible and with a good,long plot (so like 20-80 chapters) because it feels like I’ve read most fics like this and I can’t seem to find any more.

Thanks if you answer this.Remeber to drink water and take care of yourself!

Howdy, thanks for asking! Here are some fics that might fit what you're looking for!

The Fallen Player by TreeKami (General Audiences, Complete)

We follow YOU, the Player, on this epic Undertale story. You get sucked into the game on your computer and have no idea what to expect. Will you be able to get back home, or will you be stuck forever, never returning to your world, glitching out inside the game? You will meet all your favorite characters hoping that they will spare you and help guide you on your journey back home.

The Lost Echoes by F311 (Not Rated, Complete)

A kid strolls into the basement of Sans the Skeleton. They don't notice until someone demands to know how they got there. You know everyone, but they don’t know you. Everyone is stressed out in their own way. (MC is just named and has glasses, appearance is up to readers :D)

Even monsters have hearts by FireBright (Teen And Up, Complete)

Cutting the story short you fall down into the Underground. After regaining consciousness and your strange sense of humor you decide to explore this wonderful cavern filled to the brim with magic, monsters and secrets!

What Matters is the Soul by Silencium1 (Teen And Up, Complete)

You fell asleep in your bed at home, and woke up in another bed, made of golden flowers. You don't know how you got into the world of Undertale, but there is a more pressing situation. What is wrong with your Soul?

Mending a Soul by 1StarShine1 (Mature, Complete)

After your life started spiraling down, and you were fed up with everything you took a trip up the fabled Mt. Ebott; the one that some say you never return from. What you hadn't expected was to fall in the world of monsters with them showing the love and kindness you haven't seen in years. Can you find true happiness again, and maybe even love?

[fruitytrollroll]

in the shadow of the luminary now has the privilege of inspiring several other lovely writers' works (with a heaping helping of Nightmo and a little bit of Prismo, too)!

A Nightmare Is Just A Dream You're Afraid To Acknowledge by Anonymous, and--

A Nightmare Is A Wish Left Unsaid by the inimitable Rachrar!!

as far as i know, the similar titles weren't even on purpose lmao, which i love, like we are academics venturing reasonable contradictions in the nightmo scholarship 🔍🧐 these are lovely works, so please give them a read!! (and as always mind the tags, lol)

and for my part, I have written an alternate-(good,,,?)-ending, Young Human Magician Prismo x Scarab midquel to luminary: the past is perpetual youth to the heart!

tomorrow is my birfday so you should give these fics your love and leave us nice complimints!!

[blorbocedes]

hetcess cake in vegas au this is quite simply the best thing EVERR. killing myself about it. call girl!nico who is now 25 x present day older f1 driver jenson button. the characterization and dialogue is done simply to perfection and then nico's ex girl bestie Elle....... you know how it is. fucking hell. agghhhhhhhh

3 part series, all complete, go fucking treat yourself it is so so good

absolutely CRIMINAL how underrated it is

[strawberrypinky]

It’s meme time again and I’m returning with memes for my favourite situationship: Raphael and Fortuna - aka the massively maladjusted protagonists of @gufu-vire “O, Fortuna”

Go read that story, my dearies. It’s bloody fantastic! ✨🩷🤌🏻

Spoilers and slight NSFW under the cut!

Read “O, Fortuna” here [AO3 account needed]

[continentcakeshop]

You just don't have enough brains and courage for Roche/Ciri, stupid. strange and senseless is only Roche/Iorweth, because Roche will never fuck or love a nasty terrarist elf. strange and senseless is only Roche/Iorweth, because Roche will never fuck or love the nasty terrarist elf, with whom he is even bored to talk and about whom he does not care. Roche/Ciri at least have similar personalities and interests, and besides, according to the canon, they have the opportunity to communicate… Roche/Ciri are similar in that they are willing to protect the people they care about. Iorwethdoesn't care about anyone and only cares about his own tail. The Roche/Iorveth ship is mostly water without foundation. People love them more because they see them as a typical enemies-to-lovers ship, not caring about the characters' personalities.

The amount of effort this must have taken you to write from whatever hole you crawled into is actually astonishing. Even with all the run on sentences and spelling mistakes, it's partially coherent.

Anyway - no one cares what you have to say anymore Marina. Go write your own fics if you care so much about some imaginary characters. Meanwhile, someone gave me admin privileges and I'm going to use them for evil.

Rarepair time!

No one else cares about this pairing but me, but I think you should read them (absolutely no shade if you don't. Unlike some people, I am firmly in the ship and let ship... boat. That was not an intentional pun but now I have to live with it.)

Arnaghad/Valdo - two characters who have never and will never meet in Canon. Please enjoy.

[jamiesfootball]

What fics are you currently following?

Oh god I am not picky with the subscribe button. Here's the honorable mentions for the fics that are keeping me in line with what I'm meant to be writing:

Tiny football children that make me laugh and cry

Tiny football Jamie that mostly makes me cry

Hard of hearing Jamie who's touch-starved when he gets sent back to Man City but also he has cats so do we cry yes we cry

This beautiful gut-punch that I'm only two chapters deep into about how something as small as a fucked up hair cut can just hit you in the core and leave you upset no matter how much you tell yourself it shouldn't matter

Hey you hated me up until five minutes ago but now it's like you're a capybara and I'm a sexy little bird who's great at football and actually you're stuck with me now forever Ms Welton said so

[4thbrighteststar]

a poem written on a bathroom wall

They sit in silence, drinking the view in, drinking each other in. It's insane, Luke thinks sometimes, how it's been thirteen years and he's never once gotten tired of this. Of them. “Thanks,” he whispers, trying not to break the moment. He doesn't specify any further - knows he doesn't need to. a place for all my 5sos prompt fills and drabbles - continually updated!

pairings: ot4, cake, malum (also continually updated)

rating: t (for swearing)

on ao3.

This fic was so much fun! It really encapsulates the insanity you will find in the comments section which closely parallels wwx in so many wonderful ways.

Kinda sucks being late to the rumbelle party because I want to write some fics but the ones I wanna do seem like they've already been done several times over.

[chris-in-the-headlights]

Hear me out, this fic

You are not ready for this one fellas

Because crack is good. Romance is great. Angst is even better. A crack fic suddenly having a horrifying twist just after it turned into a serious romance on the other hand, is on a completely different level.

If you haven’t checked it out already, what are you doing here???? Go! Now!

@star-lights-up, you cooked

[salamencerobot]
