you guys need to watch 2009 show Lie to Me so that there’s more fanfics about it. This show has no fandom and it’s absolutely tragic

I haven’t been around for some time and coming back, looking at your page: I suddenly feel like LTM aged loaaads. And yet I still love it.

Hello hello! I wondered where you'd gotten to! Yes, can you believe the first season is now fifteen years old? (Bring them back, bring them baaaaack, we need properly middle-aged Cal and Gillian and grown up Emily!)

DUUUUIDE I NEED SOME FAMILY CENTERED FANFIC OF THEM LIKE YESTERDAY UGGGGH

Cal & Emily Lightman - Best father/daughter relationship EVER.

[kissofthemuses]

Closed Starter for @asoulunbound || Emily && Spencer

Emily's brows pulled down as she watched the snow come down fast and heavy. Her hand was pressing her cellphone to her ear harder than was necessary, as if that would help the line be any clearer. ❝I can barely hear you, you're breaking up,❞ she said into the phone, louder than she normally would in some vain attempt to be heard herself.

Reception had been spotty even before the storm had the wind howling at the window, and now it was totally failing. ❝There's no way we're gonna be able to make it back! I can't even see three feet ahead! Hello? He-fuck.❞ The call had disconnected.

She sighed heavily as slid the phone into her jacket pocket and looked over at Spencer. The storm had whipped up quickly and, before they could get out, it was far too dangerous to try.

❝Well, looks like we're not going anywhere for a while. And reception is kaput.❞ She pulled her jacket tighter around herself as she looked around, searching for she didn't even know what in the moment.

OKAY BUT LIKE—

the real thing we were robbed of when they cancelled lie to me was getting to s10 and having emily and gillian changing cal's ringtone to london boy by taylor swift and him losing his ever loving mind every time

[teaandslushies]

Oh, lovely, another LtM* plotbunny I don't have time for:

Emily comes home for winter break all giddy over the boy she met in Psych, and the girl they both met at some random pub night on campus.

Cal is gobsmacked. Gillian is all for Emily testing out her sexual orientation, as long everyone is safe and having a good time. Zoe is all: hello, apple, meet tree. Why did everyone assume I was *jealous* of Gillian? Cal is even more smacked of gob.

(Inspired by this Jennifer Beals quote: "To be honest, it was really nice to be on a set where I could get a whiff of men! [Laughs.] But it was also very confusing because I had spent six years playing Bette and flirting with women and being with women as this character. So when I got to Lie to Me, being on a set and being in a power suit, my brain thinks I’m playing a lesbian character.

So I’m on the set flirting with Kelli Williams’ character in a scene and Tim Roth is like, “Wait, wait! You’re not supposed to be flirting with her, you’re supposed to be flirting with me! This is the set-up!” And it was almost automatic that my character was flirting with this woman. It was like automatic pilot.")

We were robbed of that out-take.

I don't like most pet names in fanfic either and I am well past childhood. That's because I find a lot of the chosen pet names feel way out of character to me. Either I think they sound wrong coming from the character who bestows the pet name, or they don't fit the character with the pet name, or both.

Like, person A may call person B "darling" or "babe," but not "sweetheart" or "honey." And vice versa for person B. It's a characterization issue for both. Writers have to ask themselves, which pet names sound like a good fit for their characters, and which don't.

(Of course, if the canon has built-in pet names (or nicknames) for characters, use those.)

Just saw a TikTok complaining about ‘kitten’ as a pet name in fanfiction and while I do agree with their discomfort on that one the comments were FULL of people mentioning all the other common pet names ?? Like honey babe baby sweetheart etc ?? Is your partner just supposed to call you by your name the whole time ????????

INTRO POST! FINALLY!

I’m probably forgetting some stuff, so this might get updated.

My name is Casey, you can also call me Cas. I use he/they pronouns, idrc which ones you use. I’m asexual omniromantic, and I’m transmasc and nonbinary! I'm also AuDHD. If you’ve been w me long enough,  you’ll remember when my url was something different. Fun fact I actually never posted about that change so y’all just had to figure it out for yourselves. I used to be fandomtrash67, back when my blog was just reblogs and likes and nothing important, when I was only on here like once a month. 

I have personal tags! cas has thoughts is my original posts, but not all of them. The site I used to sort through the frankly copious amounts of reblogs I have still filtered out when I had full thoughts in the reblog, so it's missing some. cas does things is my polls and asks and shit.

THIS POST IS MY MAGNUM OPUS: X

This is mostly a Doctor Who blog, ngl, but I’ll randomly post about some other fandoms too (which are listed below). 12 is my favorite Doctor, followed by 10. My biggest ships, in order, are: Thoschei (literally insane about them. Mostly twissy, but all variations too), 12clara (I also fw 11clara), and Timepetals (all variations). 

I am currently on season 13, and I only started watching within this last year. When I was younger, I was so fucking in love with Timepetals that the end of season two made me so sad I stopped watching the show for almost two years. I’m back, bitches! I’m still trying to catch up. 

I am a destiel sleeper agent, they will show up randomly. 

I am a fic writer, but I’m sorta inconsistent on my posting. Find me here: X

Unfortunately, I am American, so US politics will show up sometimes. Shit fucking sucks.

@asoulunbound asked: “🌿🍒” (Spencer and Emily)

send “🌿🍒” (or “mistletoe”) for my muse’s reaction to standing under a mistletoe with your muse

Emily shifted her gaze around the room, just observing those around her for a moment, a drink in her hand. The first holiday party at any new place of work was bound to be enlightening. And, while she was enjoying herself, she was content to stand back for the moment.

❝Hey,❞ she said with a smile as Spencer came up beside her. Catching the hint of leafy green above, her eyes lifted to see the mistletoe hanging directly above them. ❝Oh. You might wanna look up: mistletoe,❞ she said, pointing up at it.

For a second, Emily wondered if she should make a joke and play off bucking the tradition for fear of making things awkward between them, that'd probably be the smarter thing to do. But that choice was the opposite of what she wanted to do. (And, hey, if things did get awkward, she could always blame the alcohol for it, right? Despite the fact that she hadn't had anywhere near that much.) Or they could brush it off as just fulfilling a silly holiday tradition.

Before she could lose the moment and the momentary courage, Emily leaned up, giving Spencer time to pull away if he wanted to, and placed a soft, lingering kiss to his lips.
