MJF/Caster, theme is: oblation! :)

ough. OUGH.

set during mjf's world title reign, in some kind of alternate universe where the champ can demand the roster pay their respects

under a cut for length

-----

Maxwell is seated upon the steel chair like a king upon his throne, imperious and untouchable and draped in finery.

“And what are you offering?” he asks dismissively, examining his fingers like they're of more interest to him than all the poors and proles queuing up for an opportunity to bend the knee.

“Hmm, what can I offer?” Caster says, pretending to ponder. Maxwell's eyes flit over to his own, and Caster likes to imagine there's curiosity glittering there.

He takes a step closer. Close enough to smell his cologne, the richness of it. Maxwell doesn't demand he step back, allows him into his personal space, which gives him the confidence to sink to his knees at Maxwell's feet, looking up at him with half-lidded eyes.

“You've already got the gold... maybe you deserve to take Platinum, too?”

Have you seen Kip wrestle in person? How was it? If not, who do you think is his in-ring wrestling soulmate (if any) and why?

I HAVENT AND IM SO MAD and upset that it probably will never happen at this pace since aew will probably never come to europe outside of the uk and i cant travel anywhere and ough

but. the simple answer is orange cassidy. i'll try to keep this short LMAO but they are just. two sides of the same coin, basically. as personalities, with their stories, everything. and ive never seen anyone hang as well so fast with oc as kip has during any single match they've had together. they just match each other perfectly, they know each others moves like the back of their hands, the back and forth is incredible in their sequences every time. they really are just meant to be together inside that ring and the chemistry is undeniable on every level

🌵 ⇢ share the link to a playlist you love

i wish i could link my own spotify playlists without doxxing myself, since i spent a few hours making my new summer playlist (zomerdeuntjes) the other day and man music fucking rocks

i LOVE this playlist by celadonleaf on spotify, its got about every genre i like and a good mix of depressed evil vibes and yaay edm party vibes. so many of my fave songs are on here it's perfect. there's britney beyonce marina poppy and lorde, but also cobra starship and gym class heroes and the all-american rejects, there's mindless self indulgence, there's the orion experience and mother mother, but there's also ashnikko and alexandra savior and rina sawayama and doja cat and for some reason joost klein?

Oh and "tear" as well :)

Tear does not appear in any of my WIPs! Here’s an added bit instead:

Somewhere between the airport and the Pit Stop, Max managed to fall into a restless sleep. When he finally woke up, he found himself groggy, crusty-eyed, and drooling on his custom Burberry printed neck pillow. As if he wasn’t feeling gross enough already, Crash just had to be humming along to some stupid country song that played low on the truck radio.

“Turn that yeehaw bullshit off.” Max grumbled, trying to rub the gunk from his eyes.

“If you ever disrespect Dolly like that again, I will castrate you.” Crash replied cheerily.

P & R for the fanfic ask game!

P: Are you what George R. R. Martin would call an “architect” or a “gardener”? (How much do you plan in advance, versus letting the story unfold as you go?)

I have like a basic outline most of the time for fics and stuff, little bits like the prompt and starting line but other than that, I just write and write and if its good, its there. if its bad it goes into the trash, im constantly like sketching or doodling ideas in dms with my friends and sibling

R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence?

so so so many people like @katries and @old-no7 because they werite so well and I love it so much also people who are just my friends like @mobiblackout inspire me everyday or whenever we speak cuz they just so freeing and kind. @harvey-dent is another inspiration because they constantly keep my writing brain alive but in all honesty all fanfic writers are inspirations to me, every single one I follow I cherish cuz i know how scary and hard it is to put fanfic stuff out there when people are for some reason focusing on fandom purity than just freedom of expression and stuff and how people for some reason seem to think us fanfic writers are lesser artists.

I don't have any real question to ask except congrats on Kip's place in the Patriarchy <3 Immediately thought of you when I saw/heard he was doing stuff with them and on TV.

Also, fine, question: have you ever gotten into something because of a wrestler?

im still cautiously optimistic about this turn of events honestly, cause MAN him joining them was such a heartbreak moment but also seeing how he is now and how the story is developing? boy i am so here for it. also like i told him when they officially let him join last week lmao

and ooooh i dont. think so? i mean i guess you can count fozzy back in the day but thats probably it. at least i cant think of anything from the top of my head right now

THE END with Claudiyoots!

ok, so, scattered as i am about this specific verse, i have found two different endings in my files! one lives in my gdocs and the other in my scrivener. neither of them are finished, fortunately. so i am taking the easy route and summarising it instead of posting any lines 🥰

this is what both have in common: claudio visits yuta in his apartment in philadelphia and has a gift for him (a chain necklace). they finally kiss for the first time. claudio then suggests moving in together but yuta's like cmon man its our first date have a LITTLE bit of chill (after he spent approximately 8000 words so far having zero chill about claudio).

i am hung up on whether to end it on a sex scene. it feels right for this fic and at the same time it also does not feel right for this fic! the gdocs version includes a conversation about sexual identity which is kind of heavy and includes talk about trauma, and i am thinking about discarding it.

because it's heavy, if i keep that conversation in i feel like i need to end on a sex scene (or at least like, elaborately set one up and fade to black) for emotional catharsis, and i don't think i like that very much. the conversation's prompted mid-make out and there's no other place earlier in the fic where it fits.

Top 5 out of context wrestling quotes!

5. See, you're one of those girls that like romance. I'mma talk to all my freaks out there. Would you rather come home to me, a genetic freak, to be satisfied every night? Or go home to that fat ass Samoa Joe? - Scott Steiner

4. ONE BIG BUCKET OF CANADIAN MOOSE PISS! - The Rock

3. Every man who hides behind a mask is either incredibly ugly… or the Batman! - Santino Marella

2. Do you feel him, sir? - Cody Rhodes

1. John, my diet soda!! - CM Punk

[himbos-hotline]

I can't come up with 100 letters but I'll come up with several. Sorry in advance if they're dumb.

1.) What is your least favorite look of your favorite wrestler?

theyre not dumb, asks are actually really nice. It makes me feel wanted and like I fit somewhere yknow?

I really did not like those bland, brown wrestling tights on hangman, I think they look so unlike anything hes worn before and its just,,,not it

Sunday Six

Tagged by @miserablecreachur thank you! Here’s the opening to my FinJay fic, based on their tag match against YOH and SHO back when both were Young Lions. It’s a good match, I recommend! I’m proud of this bit -- it’s not how most of Finlay’s POV goes, but I like the way it feels...odd and abstract, for writing brain-while-wrestling, and sets up some of the background themes :)

Tagging @grand-magnificent, @believerindaydreams, @nagdabbit, @shinakkyo (hi this is @sybilius on wrestling sideblog) @eaventide if you want to post a snippet go for it!

*

The thing about tagging, his father said once, is that it’s about the give. 

He gets that– fistful of his hair in his partner’s hand, and he steps aside, watches elegant twists, quick flips, that he hasn’t quite mastered. 

The thing about tagging, is that when you go for take, you usually take a fist to the jaw, between he shoulders, hell, okay, but he’s the right man of the two of them to take that. 

And see, then you get to be the one who reaches, buys time, palm cracking as your partner goes in for another hit. Set him up on the top rope a little bit later, just to get to watch him fly. 

Sounds lazy, but maybe it’s about having his partner’s back. Seeing him inches away from pain he can’t take, getting that fist in when it really counts – 

– what counts, this time, is his opponent’s partner. Faster, more give, more sync, tying him up in the exact same hold. 

He grips the rope too late, the clang of the bell behind him signaling that he’s failed. The crowd claps politely. Curtain jerk. 

The real thing about tagging, his father said once, is that no one gives a shit.
