WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW HAPPY I AM RN AFTER READING UR SIMULATION FICOMG,,,,,,,,, Like !! After watching mc but it's a simulation, it has been my new hyperfixation alongside park civ but the thing is it doesn't have nearly as much content. God I wanted a fic so bad I literally scrolled through all 18 pages of park civ tag just to find a sim fic.... UNTIL I SAW UR FIC AND I WAS LIKE OMG A SIM FIC??!???? And I didn't even realize you were the park civ anon cuz I was in such a hurry to read and God it singlehandedly became my fav fic,,, like your writing style is so satisfying and the flow is AMAZING BUT my favorite part is definitely your characterization of simEvbo.... He's so angry but in such a evbo way I honestly think this is what he would have been if he had been more fleshed out in canon. The inner dialogue is great hehe I love him he's full of issues and desperately need therapy<3
Also normally im more of a evbo fan than a seavbo but the bit with simSeavbo's dynamic is *chef's kiss* you really scratched the itch I never knew I had in my brain here..
(in the interest of not having this post be unreadably long, the second ask as well as my response is under the 'read more'.)
ALSO ALSO,, I actually read most of your fics so after the simfic I decided to give the amongus au a go since I usually don't read smut but your writing is just so nice I needed more... I loved the setting and the characters esp clown pierce and AJ which is very unusual (I never rlly liked antagonists😭) but your characterization is by far my favorite. I never knew I needed a morally grey villain where they r evil but not in a flat evilevil way ykyk,.. AJ was honestly such a refreshing character since you def fleshed him out from canon! Same goes to clown pierce but he is def less evil and mysterious than in canon since I assumed he and the old man never has a fall out. Tbh I was actually expecting clown pierce to idk.. do something mischievously evil and villain worthy but instead he actually became quite nice?? And sweet?? Ok yea I definitely prefer your choice more now that I think about it
hellooo :). there are more sim fics? i couldn't find any others but i only gave the tags a cursory glance.
thank you! simulation evbo has quickly become one of my favourites because i am a wee bit of a sucker for the evil alternate self trope (as well as some good ol' religious theming...) he should go to therapy, but he'd probably end up giving the therapist a crisis.
i think on some level seavbo has a large impact on both parkour civilization evbo and simulation evbo, romantically or otherwise; seawatt is a significant character in both, to the point where it's difficult to begin to describe evbo without describing him in relation to seawatt (this is more of an issue with parkciv evbo.)
anyway, onto the next half of the ask; the among us au is honestly something i still think about. i think clownpierce's character in canon is heavily influenced by the severe isolation he experiences, and this is represented in the au by his reclusiveness at the start; evbo hardly manages to speak to him until nearly halfway through, i believe.
clown's character is extremely divergent and this is something i'm aware of: i was considering having him be worse, but having him as direct foreshadowing for seawatt's arc almost felt like divine inspiration, as well as having his grief and how he reacts to it be a parallel to evbo's; you'll notice both of them immediately isolate themselves, and both of them fall back on their work as escapism.
i wasn't expecting this response to be mostly about clownpierce, but: you'd be right in assuming they never fell out. their 'falling out' is moreso tied to the old man's literal 'falling out' from life. clownpierce is only an antagonist in the sense that he is intentionally a misleading character: having the main antagonist be one of 'the good guys' is a bit of a red herring, no? :)
aj's character was mostly extrapolation from seawatt's, and he exists as a direct foil to him for that reason. most of what he does is in direct opposition to what seawatt would do, and generally i've characterised him with that in mind. where seawatt would probably go out kicking and screaming he goes with a great deal of grace, and where he is needlessly cruel seawatt is gentle; though they share a good amount of traits too, the most notable probably being their sense of pride.
tl;dr: thank you for the compliments lol... sorry to use your ask as an excuse to talk about among us au's characters and how i decided to develop them in new context, but i'm not really. ty again! <3

cruel temptations
pairings: sukuna x reader, toji x reader, gojo x reader
tags: love triangle, slowburn, bar!au, bartender sukuna and toji, club owner gojo
a/n: I will probably never make a pt. 2 but I knew I had to post this bit I wrote back in october. Sukuna’s bar is called the Atlantic Domain whereas Satoru’s is Blue Dragon.
synopsis: after a mutual agreement with bartender/owner sukuna, the new bartender whose name you learn is toji, piques your interest. however, that all may change with the arrival of one new guest.
tw: alcohol mentions
Tumblr media
“another song?” you rolled your eyes, making your way towards the bar where sukuna stands.
“you know I come here whenever I can.”
“you sure it’s not for me?” a teasing smile plays across his lips.
“nope,” you say, popping the p. “I love the free drinks.”
from the other side of the counter, sukuna reaches for the empty glass to fill your beverage of choice. virgin piña coladas.
“you’re lucky you’re not an alcoholic,” he bickers, sliding the glass towards you before adding a decorative umbrella against the rim. just the way you like it, “or else I would’ve kicked you out already.”
you snort.
“oh please, we both know I bring in clients.”
for the last several weeks, the two of you settled on an agreement. in exchange for karaoke nights sung by you, you would receive a generous amount of free drinks.
you remember the night as if it were yesterday. your friends having brought you to a karaoke bar to sing, encouraging you to flash your ‘talent’ to those around. fast forward to three hours later, the whole bar was packed, and Sukuna was pleased with the numbers.
all thanks to someone's video publication of you in a seemingly ‘aesthetic’ bar.
it was late that night, already in the am when he proposed you come next week, with the chance to try a new drink of his; explosive coladas as he calls them.
and you surprise him next week with your visit. audiences filling the seats at a fast rate. that very night, the bartender proposes you come sing on the weekends. your pay? free drinks.
but as of late, your visits to the Atlantic Domain were gradually becoming frequent. thanks to the new bartender around, whose name you learned from a friend was Toji. you were visiting the bar day and night, including weekdays.
“you may be right,” Sukuna interrupts your thoughts with a harmless frown, “but I don’t want any snot running on my counters.”
“oh come on, you know Adele is a tear-jerker!” you defend.
“yeah? well save ‘m for the showers.”
ever since the arrival of Toji, Sukuna has taken most nights off, working at another location in hopes of opening another bar on the west side of the city.
“you should order something else besides coladas,” your friend, Utahime suggests. standing on the other side of the bar, Mei-Mei shakes a container before skillfully pouring 8 blossom shots in one go. your friend grumbles beside you, saying something about Mei-Mei's hair always looking flawless.
“Toji should be coming from his smoke break,” she informs, taking your orders. “we also have a new guest joining us tonight.”
“who?” Utahime questions.
“gojo satoru, owner of the Blue Dragon, among many other clubs and businesses of course.”
you can’t help but notice the curve of her lip when she brings up the name. it’s no surprise to either of you that anything related to money called for Mei-Mei’s attention, but she wasn’t that shallow; you knew. why him?
“Is there a reason why he’s coming?” you're thankful your friend asks the question lurking in your mind.
“could be business,” Mei-Mei grins, sliding your friend her beverage. “or pleasure.”
“he’d be an idiot to mix business and pleasure.” Utahime sourly spits before drowning her drink.
“a very rich, idiot.” Mei-Mei smiles, turning to you with a twinkle in her eye. “maybe he’ll take a liking to your singing if he stops by.”
“I’m not a show bird,” you quickly reply, “and I’m certainly not here to entertain him. plus, if he were that important, Sukuna would’ve told me.”
failing to hide the smirk across her lips, Mei-Mei rolls her eyes.
“oh you and your loyalty to that man.”

Keep in mind, none of these are finished. I'll edit them before sharing them, but they will remain unfinished unless I magically get the inspiration and motivation to continue them. My issue is, if I leave a story untouched for too long, I can no longer force my brain to return to that world and plot. So it just... won't be continued. It isn't because I don't want to. It isn't because I don't know where I intended the story to go. I just can't go back if I don't finish something quickly.
Still, I really like some of these. I personally enjoy re-reading them, even if I haven't completed them. And it seems some folks here are interested in my unfinished works, so I figure I'll give you a chance to pick some.
Some of these are over 3 years old.
I may post a poll tomorrow, but if you want, feel free to tell me which of these interest you the most.
Excuse the silly names for some. I've listed the names of their documents, so that I don't forget which story is which. Ones with quotation marks are simply named the first sentence of the story.
Also, I haven't reread any of these super recently so my descriptions may not be 100% accurate. Feel free to ask for more details if it would help you decide which one you're interested in and I'll look through the story to give you proper answers. That includes content/trigger warnings. Please let me know if you would like any detailed warnings about any of these. I included some I remembered for the major ones but I definitely didn't cover all of them.
With all that out of the way, here are some of the options:
Blood and Wolves -- 103k words. A majority of that was written within the space of a week. Features Damian, Vikram, and a nonbinary person in a relationship with the two of them. Contains consensual sex scenes (mildly dubious consent for one of the scenes), some of which are threesomes and some of which included shifted werewolf sex. Also contains much angst and processing of trauma. Also the main character is often misgendered by side characters.
"The truck rattled down the road..." -- 15k words. Features Damian and a nonbinary person exploring an... interesting relationship dynamic. It takes place in an alternate universe where vampires hold a lot of political power and humans that are deemed to be a strain on human society are given over to the vampire government to be their slaves. Our POV character is one such human. Contains no sex scenes but does cover topics of sexual assult and trauma.
Vampires Among Us -- 37k words. Features Damian, Vikram, and Talia. No sex scenes. Contains homophobia, transphobia, abuse, sexual abuse, etc. It's mainly about the main character, Talia, escaping an abusive situation and un-learning bigotry she was taught growing up. This was my original attempt at The First Life of Talia MacDonald. While I think the new version is better quality and better thought out, this original version has some gems that I still really like.
Twilight AU -- 35k words. Features Damian, Vikram, and a nonbinary character that takes the place of Bella Swan in the events of Twilight. Basically this is my "what if Twilight but my characters?" Damian is in Edward's place, Vikram is in Jacob's, and the POV character is still called Bella throughout it for part of it but later comes out as nonbinary and uses a different name. A lot of the plot follows the first three Twilight books, with changes made to suit my characters. Content warning for major suicidal ideation. Misgendering because no one knows the POV character is nonbinary.
Twilight but better -- 21k words. Features Vikram and a character named Crystal. Basically after writing "Twilight AU", I decided I really liked some of the things I did in that story but wanted to approach them without the limits of following the plot of Twilight. This story explores relationship trauma. Aside from the POV character dealing with a lot of icky feelings about the past, I think this one is pretty light and fluffy. The name is misleading, but that's what the document is titled.
Jillian -- 30k words. Features Damian, Vikram, and a character named Jillian. This is a complicated one to explain, but was so fun to write. It explores how Damian would go about romancing someone he already knows and loves but doesn't know him. Contains a LOT of ableism surrounding the main character's disabilities. Also, fair warning, the main character has disabilities I don't have myself so I can't promise I represented it well. A lot is based on my own experiences and what I've heard people say about their experiences, but I'm sure I messed up somewhere.
Talia story Damian POV -- 24k words. This is The Strange Life of Talia MacDonald, but from Damian's POV. It's only the first few chapters, but I think it provides a fascinating insight into the chaos that is Damian's brain.
Underbeings -- 8k words. Features Vikram and Talia. Hard one to explain... Basically all Talia's life, something's been off. People have treated her weirdly. Turns out it's because a powerful magical creature has magical ownership of her. Go figure. This is about her learning about that. Just kinda a fun romp, in my opinion. I'm sad I'll never finish it but there's cute parts.
Kadan travels -- 8k words. Features Kadan, Kadan's brother and Kadan's brother's mate, and a nonbinary character. It's... very out of context. But it's like the only thing I have written about Kadan. I don't know how to describe it other than to say there's a lot of gender exploration, discussion of various types of abuse and bigotry, and some good queer lovin' between people that don't fit the gender binary. Pretty SFW if memory serves, just some discussions of sex. It's also technically fanfiction of a YA werewolf romance book series I was obsessed with as a teen because unfortunately Kadan's backstory is very wrapped up in that world lol.
Badassius -- 2.8k words. This isn't a full story as much as an outline, but it's the only thing I have written of B.D. And yes, now you know his actual name.
Guardian Dragon -- 4k words. Features Cyrus and maybe Talia? She has a different name but I think it's decently safe to say this is a very outdated version of the character that has developed into Talia McDonald. Explores trauma.
Incubi -- 2.5k words. Features Orion and a nonbinary character. Also wow this story shows a whole lot of the framework of my entire canon so that's fun. No sex scenes just a lot of sexual frustration. I wouldn't include this on the list because it's so short, but like some of the others, it's the one thing I have featuring Orion.
Vampire 101 -- 8k words. Features Damian, Vikram, and a nonbinary vampire character. Damian teaches a class of new vampires how to vampire. Our POV character isn't doing so well and needs extra lessons. 😏 Actually no that makes it sound more sexy than it is. It's not that sexy. But I learned a lot about vampire physiology when writing this. Not all of the facts learned in Vampire 101 are still canon to my brand of vampires, but I still think it's interesting.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" and "Tharzaroth" and "I had just settled in to read..." -- They all are a little over 1k words and are three different takes on Tharzaroth's story. I haven't been able to fully settle on how his plot should go, so those are my attempts thus far. I wouldn't include them here except again, that's all I have of Tharzaroth.
Based on the poll, it looks like folks want to see my unfinished works that won’t ever be finished.
I thought maybe I’d see about posting something today, to celebrate my birthday. But I don’t know which one to do.
Most of course have Vikram because I’m obsessed. Some also have Damian. One feature’s B.D. the dragon but it’s more an outline to a story. I have a few featuring Cyrus. One with Kadan. Probably a few featuring other characters.
So yeah, let me know what type of thing you want to see. I’ll see if I can post a full list of the options when I can get on my computer.

“Oh, yeah, I guess most of our bases are named after people…well, there’s the Yavin, but I think that’s actually from Star Wars of all things…” Sio muttered to herself. Actually now that she thought about it, who named these things anyway? The Commander? DOGOO? 'A centuries old lady or an alien...that might explain the names...'
It'd taken her a while to absorb what the woman and drone--Ghost, she reminded herself, it didn't seem to take kindly to being compared to a robot--were saying. The words were familiar, in a sense, but also alien. She could understand them, sure, but there was definitely vocabulary and slang she did not recognize, even with her language skills.
She stared at her AU ball, which was apparently of much interest to both of them. "Uh, this? It's, it's an AU ball--anti-ultimate weapon, whatever that means...but you're right, it's not human--er, that is, it was given to me by another alien. I don't understand the specifics of it myself, but I know it contains the soul of Oda Nobunaga--er, he was a famous guy where I'm from. But I only really sorta communicate with him when I'm like, in dire straits...and I'm pretty sure most other people can't see or hear him, either. He definitely doesn't float around in this ball like your Data. And funnily enough, I think he guards me. Well, most of the time," she winces and thinks about the time when she nearly lost control.
It's not that Oda Nobunaga is inherently evil or anything, but Sio suspects that he's probably among one of the more...controversial e-genes. The sniper briefly wondered if somehow things were reversed here, that part of Selene's true self was actually housed in that little floating sphere.
"I mean, he doesn't really posses me," she quickly waves her hands, "it's more like, this sphere allows me to uh, activate latent powers 'cause I'm technically his really distant descendant, and that's what allows me to trigger the stuff and, um..." she trails off, realizing that despite all her time at DOGOO, she doesn't actually know how they function. Forget Saint Germain and his lessons, from what she's gathered, even Commander Iyo and DOGOO aren't 100% sure how and why they work. "So, for me, it manifests as a giant machine gun." She grits her teeth and wonders if it's wise to show her powers in front of strangers. They don't seem to be bad, just...curious. Without another thought she activates the sphere and with a burst of light it appears; the long barrel, the winding loops of ammo belt curving its way around her arm, and of course the mask, which was as close to Nobunaga appearing as it got.
"I know this looks crazy, but it's the only way we can fight the Evolutionary Invasion Objects. Normal weapons can't do much against them. And since there's really only a handful of us who can use AU balls, they call us e-gene holders; since we have the genetic code necessary to unlock these powers."
She realizes how insane this must sound. Heck, even the general public still had tons of questions about e-gene holders and the EIOs, even after all this time. "I can't say I'm the best, or most experienced, but...well, when your planet's being invaded by a bunch of aliens hell-bent on destruction, I guess you don't get much of a choice, huh?" A rather bitter smile crosses her face, as she remembers all the hardships, trauma, and loss she's had to endure so far.
Tumblr media
"O-Oh, sorry about that--but regardless, you're pretty cool for a flying robot thing..." Open mouth, insert foot. Would she ever stop being a socially awkward noob? Probably not. She wasn't sure what Data meant that 'that would be more Selene' since the girl certainly seemed quite solid and alive, but maybe things were not what they seemed here. At least, not in this timeline...?
"Honestly, I'm not really sure how I got here...? I don't think I was doing anything different..." The last thing she remembered was debating on how much time she had for lunch before meeting with the rest of the platoons in preparation for the next attack. "I mean, I was aboard the Alex Logan--uh that's the base I stay at--and kinda milling about, and maybe being sorta bored and...sleepy?"
Maybe this was all some really real, hallucinatory dream?
"The reason I asked is just...well, I guess I kinda have a 'guardian' too, but he's much harder to see--well, actually I don't even know if it's possible for anyone else to see him..." Now that Sio thought about it, she never saw other people's e-genes, only her own. The only person she knew to even be remotely aware of communicating with other e-genes was Adam, but from what she'd learned, his sensitivity was an exception and not the rule. "I'll spare the complicated details 'cause I don't even know how it really works myself, but his name's Oda Nobunaga and I'm basically his reincarnation. But I can use this," she held out her AU ball, which somehow was still with her, "and turn him into a giant gun to fight aliens from outer space trying to destroy my planet."
The sniper hoped that sounded less crazy than it did in her head, but after so many speeches of 'what is an e-gene holder and how do they work' this was the best elevator pitch she came up with.
"Ah ha ha ha ha...I know, crazy right? Aliens and reincarnation...if I wasn't living in it right now, I wouldn't believe it either..."
