@enchi-elm (Apfelessig) - I'm so glad you joined our little fandom group! It's been wonderful having you in the Discord, and I'm excited to see more analysis and meta from you.

[dingdangit]

I'm SO excited to get to do this podfic of @enchi-elm's drabble from week 2 of AELDWS 2024, as a prize for Watch Party Bingo! I've loved the fic from the beginning, so it was a real treat to be matched for this ^_^ I hope I've done it justice!!

Title: Podfic of One more thing, before the ash reaches the sky by Apfelessig

Pairing: Arthur.Eames

Rating: Mature

Podfic Length: 3 minutes

Summary: Arthur ponders life-changing decisions in a city that’s buried in time.

[mercurygray]

That's a lovely idea! I'll take two prompts, one for each of my witchy 1930s aviation heroines, Ruth and Hattie <3

On it! (Did you say *witchy*? I'm intrigued.)

[alexxuun]

Alex you can't make that post and not expect me to ask for (sandman but also any other fandoms) fic recs 🙏🙏

This is so not fair because all of them are so good and I can’t fit them all into one ginormous post 😭

Saint Morpheus by @landwriter (E| 11k). I’m absolutely bias with this one but c’mon! Hob worshiping dream like a saint is everything. Also by landwriter: The many lives of Hob Gadling (M|20k).

If I could recommend @moorishflower entire sandman fics collection, I would (and I am). Some of my favourites are Maybe sprout wings (M| 91k), Wolf and I (E| 12k, also bias with this one) and If I please you (E| 112k). Praise the long fic.

Giving Sanctuary by @avelera (E|170k) Oh god, they are dads grieving together… also by Avelera: Banana Daiquiris (T|4k)

Unrelated Dreamling Size Kink Shenanigans series by @gabessquishytum (E| 6 works so far). Love me a good monsterfucker hob and BIG DREAM.

High enough (you got me good) by @delta-pavonis (E|11k) the erotic nature of weapon demonstration.

As the world came to a halt by @enchi-elm (E| 4k) humanity’s functionality getting absolutely wrecked because of a certain Endless duo and Hob is caught in it.

When I do count the clock that tells the time by @minisgatewaytoinsanity (E|9k). Dream walked out in 1389 and never met Hob until 2022. Hob repair clocks for a living.

White Knight by @gfawkesphoenixchokingonashes (E|22k). Hob has insomnia and Death knows just who to ask.

Holding On While You Slip Away by @acedragontype (E|33k) trans hob and his long immortal life. How could I not recommend this one.

the silent sounds of loneliness (best of my love) by @serenailith (E|11k) Recluse Dream and Uni student Hob here to help him out of his funk.

Bloodshot and beat by Otterwise (E|7k). Post-apocalyptic Dreamling… this one was quite something.

If you’re looking for a fantastic Hobrinthian fic with a dash of Hobrintheus, And if I get burned, at least we were electrified by @seiya-starsniper is the way to go! (E|41k)

London, 1777: A Study in Purple by Temve (E|4k) rarepair Hoblethros my beloved.

I would add more but this is quite a bit already (and still not enough). For other fic rec, I would have recommended some amazing Daredevil fics but that’s probably reserved for another post. Absolutely amazing read! Go forth!

The wind – strong, out of the north – bit cruelly and smelled strange, chemical; when she mentioned it, Burke pointed up the river towards a cluster of squat buildings. “Paper mill. You’ve read a magazine in the last year? Here’s where it came from.” “I thought you were in oil,” she said, looking up at him. “Curiosity pays better dividends than complacency. Besides, we’re not far from Collinsport, and the plant was new when I was a kid – worth talking about.”

@enchi-elm said my clean lines were appealing (thank you!) so since I was practicing my digital inking anyway...

Here ya go!

[inceptionpositivity]

@enchi-elm - You are fun and awesome and kind!! Keep being you!

[viola-ophelia]

ik it's been ages since i wrote any fic, but i randomly whipped out a bridgerton fic tonight bc i got inspired by chatting w @enchi-elm about season 3 LOL! if you like benedict and/or are mad about his s3 arc (or lack thereof) and/or enjoy sibling bonding genfic, you should read it :)

[jomiddlemarch]

Thanks to @enchi-elm who kindly invited me to play!

Color? Yellow. Mallard green. Peony pink.

Last Song? I like to put on Pomplamoose and Jamiroquai when I'm doing housework. Last stuck in my head? The theme song from Elmo's World and the pinwheel jingle from Nickelodeon.

Currently Reading? M.C. Beaton Regency romances in no particular order, Marple and A Second Chance by Jodi Taylor queued on my Kindle. My bedside table stack is too tall to count!

Currently Watching? (Don't laugh.) Lost, finally. Glee, with my 12 yo, finally. The Bear, Season 2, just before Season 3 drops. Just watched Six Schizophrenic Brothers on Max. Brats, the Andrew McCarthy documentary about how he Never Got Over being called the Brat Pack when pretty much everyone else did. (Team Ducky!) In the middle of the last season of All Creatures Great and Small on PBS. Planning to watch Hit Man.

Currently Craving? It's morning here and I don't eat a big breakfast but I guess freshly made scones would be appreciated. A poached egg, Nutella and coconut gelato for dessert tonight, which I had around this time last year in Rome.

Coffee or Tea? Inveterate tea-drinker, Red Rose is my favorite brand, about to make my second cup. I can only tolerate a little coffee-- usually a few sips a day, though I like the flavor. I am not My Best Self on caffeine.

@inception30daychallenge days 20-28

My mental health kinda took a dive for a bit there so I really fell off the wagon but I'm starting to feel better so I'm playing catch up.

Day 20: Another type of rec! (meta, podfic, fanvid, edit, meme, blog, whatever!) I looooove meta so I'm going to recommend a new one and an old one:

@enchi-elm's analysis on time dilation on the Incpetion job.

bennet-7's commentary on the costumes in the movie.

Day 21: What would you want to use dreamshare technology for? Personally? Probably pervert stuff if I'm being really honest. Although I think it could probably have really great benefits for mental health so that would be nice too.

Day 22: What skill does Robert wish he had? Juggling. 100%. That kid definitely wanted to be a clown when he grew up but instead was forced to become a boring stuffy businessman by his dad.

Day 23: If you had to be stuck on a deserted island with an Inception character, who would you choose? Arthur cuz he's hot and very bendy and probably very good at... activities, and also cuz he's very smart and resourceful so he'd probably get us saved.

Day 24: A headcanon about your favourite friendship or relationship. Not really like a fully fleshed out headcanon but I like the idea of Eames and Yusuf being bros and chilling and getting high sometimes. Yusuf provides the drugs and Eames provides the snacks.

Day 25: When Saito was a child, what did he want to be when he grew up? A journalist maybe? Or maybe he could have joined the circus with Robert? Maybe that's how they bond after inception and they both leave the energy business to start their own circus!

Day 26: Which summer Olympic sport would each character compete in? Ariadne: equestrian Arthur: gymnastics Dom: golf Eames: rowing Mal: track Robert: diving Saito: archery Yusuf: shotput

Day 27: A self-rec! (anything from art to a funny Tumblr post you made!) Here's an old drawing I did of Arthur and Eames as a Pokemon trainer couple challenging you to a battle!

Day 28: What piece of media would you want to see in a crossover with Inception? I'm a big BTS fan so I'd love to see which jobs the members of BTS would have. Yoongi as the pointman, Jimin as the forger (the duality of that man I swear!), Namjoon as the extractor, Taehyung as the chemist, etc. If a fic of this exists out there somewhere please someone send it to me! Or if you have any headcanons about the boys in dreamshare please please scream them at me!

Rules: Go to your (current/main) AO3 account and find the following:

What ratings do you write most of your fics under?

T. I can't really write sex, alas, but I love making characters swear and drink alcohol, especially the latter (I suspect I'm sublimating my own wish to drink way more often than I actually do), and I feel like that's the most appropriate rating for that.

What are your top three fandoms?

ASOUE with 20 works, Dracula with 6, and Turn: Washington's Spies with 5. All statistics are going to be not quite accurate in my case though, because a lot of my fics are posted both in English and in Russian. So that's technically one story, but two works. For example, the 5 Turn fics in question are two fics in original Russian, the English translations of both of them, and a collection of my old fandom poems in which one poem is for Turn. (I am very much not translating poems into English because trying to make them rhyme would drive me insane). On the other hand, most of my ASOUE fics in Russian are posted as a single work, each chapter being a new short fic, but their English translations are posted as separate works. If I was posting both Russian and English versions separately, the number of my ASOUE works would've been even higher.

What is the top character you write about?

Lemony Snicket appears in 12 of my fics (counting stories, not works, i.e. not counting the original and the translation as separate stories). Fitting for the first-person narrator and a fucking legend.

What are your top three pairings?

I want everyone to know that this is the point at which I realized that I don't need to count all that manually because the list of my own works also has the same sorting and filtering menu as each fandom tag. I may be stupid. Anyway! Lemonberry ice is, of course, on top with 9 works, or 6 stories if we don't count the original and the translation separately. Next is Duchess R/Beatrice with 7 works, or 4 stories. The third relationship on the list is actually a platonic one - Duchess R & Lemony with 7 works/4 stories too. If "pairings" here are to mean romance only, then Smoker/Tashigi, Quincey/Jack, and Duchess R/Sally Sebald all are at 4 works/2 stories.

What are the top three additional tags?

Not trying to subtract originals and translations here - Pre-Canon (15), Post-Canon (15), and - see the first question - Alcohol (8), lol. Oh, and Canon-Typical Violence also has 8.

Does any of this surprise you?

No. Perhaps the only surprising part is that I've written two R/Sally fics? Neither of my stories in which they appear is centered on this ship, but it's there. I can't even say I ship them, it's just that they're among the few Sugar Bowl Generation characters who are likely to be still alive by the end of the series, so I like to give them a little happy ending together.

Tagging @patron-saints, @enchi-elm, @littlestsnicket, @tangentiallly, and @virginian-wolfsnake - if you want to do this, of course :)
