Team rancher concept: they would not be comfortable sleeping together in one bed on the first night of dl. Not because 'oooo crush but he mustn't know' sort of thing. No. Tango it's because tango has trust issues. Tango isn't going to sleep defenseless with another person! What if he's betrayed again?
So they sleep separate. One of them on the floor with the blanket and one on the bed.
Eventually one of them--I'm going to say jimmy--gets cold enough it causes them both problems and they decide to share the bed to conserve body heat.
It is not cute and fluffy. Tango is so stressed and tense it's like sleeping next to a board. He hardly gets any sleep.
The next night he simply doesn't come to bed. Stays up mining all night despite Jimmy's complaints. Fun fact about sleeplessness: it does not improve paranoia.
When Jimmy finally manages to get the man to go to sleep Tango's dead on his feet. It is a little bit cute this time. Tango is sleeping like a rock. Jimmy is only restless because he's worried tango will wake up in the middle of the night and get himself hurt
The real pay off is when--after sleeping for a looong time--tango wakes up and has not been betrayed, and the following night, when he willingly climbs into bed and they fall asleep together.

The Highwayman
"I don't respect the law, Jimmy. But I think I respect you."
thoughts and a look inside the design of the book under the cut!
okay so I've been sitting on this cover of @envelopedbyoblivion's The Highwayman for months. It's a rancher duo fic where Jimmy is a sheriff and Tango is a bandit (and so much more)! Go read it if you haven't it's so so good I promise
This was initially a passion project for my portfolio meant to be printed into a real book, but I couldn't keep up with deadlines and I ended up not being able to use it :(
However, the whole book is formatted for print (which took so many months oh my god). I'm hoping one day I can actually get it printed because it's one of my favorite fanfics of all time and I'd kill to have a physical copy.
I also got to work with them to create this whole thing. Formatting books is so much work and they were so nice and patient with me ;;; Thank you for trusting me and allowing me to do this and for creating this amazing story :] <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
if anyone is curious about my design choices I'd be more than willing to ramble about them. I spent way too long on everything from fonts to the page dividers

"The Blood Mirror" (2015 - Jordan Eagles and others) / "Nighthawks" (1942 - Edward Hopper)
THE BLOOD MIRROR: The blood is encased in resin and preserved in the form of a reflective mirror that visitors can view themselves in, seeing their images in blood that could have been used to save lives but due to the FDA bans was wasted. Even now, there is still celibacy bans on queer donations and the Blood Mirror forces you to see your own life in the blood of the community that is not being used to better society by prejudice. (weeweewhirlwind)
NIGHTHAWKS: The feeling of loneliness and isolation in this piece just gets to me. You’re outside of the diner. You can’t get in. It’s blue out there and the room is warm and alive and they’re all look at each other and not at you. It’s like the viewer doesn’t exist at all. (envelopedbyoblivion) (also submitted by anonymous)
("The Blood Mirror" is an installation piece made of glass and the blood of 59 queer men who donated to the project, organized by Jordan Eagles, a gay American artist. The piece was made in retaliation to the FDA ban against queer blood donors. It measures 84 x 28 x 28" (213 x 71 x 71 cm).
"Nighthawks" is an oil on canvas painting by American artist Edward Hopper. It measures 84.1 × 152.4 cm (33 1/8 × 60 in.) and is currently held at the Art Institute of Chicago.)

I PREFER MY TANGO DEAD
Welcome to first edition of “I Prefer my Tango Dead” (and undead), where we compile the whole-ass genre of fics that start out by murdering our specialist little boy. :D (That or he’s an entity of some sort piloting around a meat suit, it’s close enough…)
Random Ao3 commenter: Why is there so many fics where the author kills Tango?
Us: yes.
This beautiful list is provided to you by EvilRat and @azzayofchaos, have fun!
In this list we compiled 19 fics(and counting) that "kill" Tango Tek some way or another, he isn't the main character in all the fics(In some he only appears in a single chapter), but he is dead. Have fun!
Random questioner: How do you decide Tango is dead?
Me: Idk man me and Karma(Azzay) just scream in each others DMs
Karma: It's weird, sometimes being a robot counts, sometimes not.
We have some tags for the type of "dead" Tango is.
List of Tags: Robot Tango / Tango is riding a corpse / Other / Ghost Tango / Zombie Tango / Vampire Tango / Skulk Tango / Came-back wrong, Tango.
If you know a fic that Tango is "dead", feel free to dm me or send in a ask. This list is only growing and we will not stop updating it.
TW: This contains spoilers! Tango being dead a lot of times is a twist in the story. And pls read the tags(On AO3), this is for fun and giggles, but the fics here have a great range of differences, some are silly and/or gay as fuck and other are straight dead dove level. Take care!
Now the list!

Process pictures under the cut

And during aging, when he froze. Word of advice: if you need to age something using coffee or tea during winter, don't do it outside

that’s ok! how about 8, 11, and 58 instead
- (:
8. Do you prefer the beginning, middle, or end of a story? Ohh.. hm, probably the middle. It's a little cliché, but i LOVE the meat of a story, and usually that's found in the middle. It's the perfect spot right between when things are getting started, and when things are coming to an end—and endings also usually make me cry, so. yeah. even if they're happy.
11. Link your three favorite fics right now oh BET. some of these are ongoing, btw! 1.) "With Two Seeming Bodies but One Heart" by HitheePrithee 2.) Literally all the works from this Resistance AU by oh-snappers and peskyybird (but "promised" is my favorite. caters to my lil ethubs lovin' heart.) 3.) The Highwayman by EnvelopedbyOblivion
I HAVE SO MANY FAVORITES. but these are the ones that i'm currently brain rotting over. ngl i read "The Highwayman" months ago but i've been listening to the podfic (also done by sir HitheePrithee. he's doing so WELLLL, go listen!) and so the brainrot has returned.
58. What part of the writing process do you enjoy the most? (Brainstorming, outlining, writing, editing, etc)  Hmmm.. Brainstorming and writing are my FAVORITE parts of the writing process, honestly. I like to edit, too, but it's not nearly as fun as the actual writing part when i'm just tossing everything onto the page with reckless abandon!
thank you for more questions<33 :D

Um hi hello ayup. I’m sure everything I’ve read is pretty popular already but I’d just like to share my love with someone else.
1) Self-promo: I can load a rifle (I don’t need it anymore). Symmetreebark roadtrip fic in au where everything is slightly retro and I gave everyone a gun! Also war theme, be careful with that — a lot of us need to get out our thoughts about it sometimes, cus we live in. . . Where we live in.
2) all goes outward and onward (by Hypno_Cat). Grian taking a fight with grass and failing miserably, even if Mumbo and Scar try to help. This is just one of the best things I’ve read lmao, mumscarians here are so sweet and goofy and just all the absurd of situation- I’ve laughed so hard you don’t know how.
3) the birds in flight, the birds still singing (by Hypno_Cat). Grian has a trauma, and Mumbo tries to solve it with marriage, and Impulse is also here. This fic made me cry, and laugh, and kick the bed like I’m eight years old. I felt like I was on the real wedding. I’ve never seen a wedding in my life. What an expirience.
4) The Highwayman (by EnvelopedByOblivion). Jimmy is a sheriff and Tango is a highwayman, and Death loves them — maybe even a bit too much. Great fic with good atmosphere and character bond in which I just believe. Maybe I cried a little. You don’t know it.
5) Halcyon (by Flickersprout). I hope dream smp fic is ok here?? Tubbo is hero, and then he is not, and it is not better; then one day he meets Tommy, and then befriends villain, and maybe something is slightly better. This clingy duo dynamic is so sweet, like I love them so much. Also even if it looks like your basic superhero fic, it’s actually not! This is a very original work.
6) Na Pescatora, nu Folle i'llu Mare tràsinu 'nta nu bar (by in_the_forest). Gem and Grian go to a seedy bar, hear their own story told like it's an old legend and the existential dread kicks in only a LITTLE bit. an episodic story where the plights with the Mending Book get recalled, and gem's little town horrors and fish apparitions grow and run deeper than she thought possible.))
This fic is in Italian, but it deserves love for Gem-Grian dynamic, atmosphere and plot twist. I fall in love when I beta’ed it and I’m still in love.
you know what I haven’t seen going around in a while, and could use some of myself? fic recs! so, consider this both a rec and a self-promo post: recommend some fics to me in the reblogs and I’ll reblog your recs! in general, try to include both a summary and why you’re reccing it (whether it’s a self-promo or someone else’s), and let’s get some eyes on fics!

For the ask game- 73, 45, 17 and 7??
7. tell us about the plot of the first fanfic you ever wrote
ok so funny story but i actually wrote fanfic when i was 12, in italian, on an italian-only site. then i stopped for a few years and moved to ao3 in i think 2018/2019??? what i'm trying to say is i genuinely can't remember the first fic i ever wrote bc it must have been 10 years ago by this point but i think it was a creepypasta origin story for an oc that. well she needs some work. i should rework her. iirc she's possessed by the ghost of her dead sister who demands constant blood sacrifice. i remember her name was Lily and her sister's name was Hazel.
17. what is your favorite line you’ve ever written?
i'm really not sure. people really seemed to love "this is not the end of you" though <3
45. name three of your favorite fanfic writers.
for the sake of fairness i will avoid mentioning my buddies/mutuals (i can make a separate post for them if anyone wants) because i have a lot more than three and i dont wanna be biased but aside from that
theOestofOCs: i read some of their magnus archives fics. god tier tim stoker content and their dracula au is a joy
Odaigahara: admittedly i have yet to get through most of their works but god does their writing style captivate me. also they have some god tier seablings and rivendell siblings content i cant say no to that
EnvelopedByOblivion: this one's cheating a bit because so far i have only read one fic of theirs but it has stuck with me so much that i think they deserve a mention here
hard question guys, i don't read as much as i'd like T^T
73. how do you visualize scenes? do you see it like a movie in your head, or do the words just flow?
i am very much a visual kind of writer :,,,))) the movie exists in my brain and then i just sort of describe it. if i get stuck writing it usually helps to sketch out some possible scenes so i can visualise them better.
