I realized that there isn't a ship name (platonic) for MK and NeZha, any suggestions?

@sypher-moon05 gave the idea for Sunset Lotus Duo, since it's an actual orange lotus. (full name 'Amazon Sunset Lotus').

Of course the comic didn't end yet (I will cry when it does) so I will edit the post from time to time.

If you liked this kind of summary then here is my AO3 bookmarks

[thathermitweirdo]

After a nightmare encounter with a trio of Watchers, Grian realizes he needs to run. The Hermits and friends around him are no longer safe. Mumbo is no longer safe.

After vanishing without a trace, Mumbo realizes there is more going on behind the scenes. In order to find Grian, Mumbo will have to venture to an entirely new world, in hopes of finding the runaway.

Though, in doing so, the two may suffer the pain of growing apart.

Be in total Deamus mode recently, I read a lot of fics. Many of them have surprisingly similar general picture but with different detailed characterizations. Here are some so-called “must have” purely from my impression:

Dean is always the more popular one

Seamus usually initiates intimacy

sharing a bed, usually Seamus sneaks into Dean’s

Seamus likes how tall and big Dean is, but feeling ashamed of his own shortness

Fights break out because Seamus doesn’t understand Dean’s experience as a black boy

There are (but much less than I previously thought) exploration of Seamus’ Irish identity

A lot of curses

Insults thrown around lovingly

Dean is bi Seamus is gay. Seamus getting super jealous when Dean dated Ginny.

Seamus setting things are fire and Dean took care of him

There aren’t that much discussion about Dean’s birth father. I dunno why. if it were me I would really care. (Is it just because I’m Asian?)

Lavender, Seamus’ best friend

Oblivious Harry (my fav)

Seven Years Summary

A Rise of the TMNT, Leonardo-centric angsty tearjerker.

Sometimes tragedy can split a family apart.

And sometimes it can bring them back together again.

If it isn't already too late.

Leo was rescued on the same day he went into the prison dimension. Wasn't he?

And nothing bad could possibly happen from being shoved into and ripped out of an alternate dimension.

Right?

-or-

Leo is pulled through Mikey’s portal after seven long, grueling years trapped in the prison dimension with the merciless Krang Prime, only to discover his brothers who he desperately missed for all those years not only didn't have time to miss him because it was only two minutes for them, but they are also angry with him for so quickly and willingly sacrificing himself to save everyone, instead of coming up with a better plan all together.

One tragedy rips the family apart but another has the potential to bring them back together again when Leo turns to Draxum for help and they discover he is suffering ill effects from his time trapped away in an alternate dimension. But will he be able to reunite with the family who pushed him away while there is still time?

Or does he even want to?

Here’s the summary of the upcoming fic that won the poll, “Wasted on Nuka-Cola Cherry.” Hopefully coming you sometime next week if I am not Bloodborne’d by finals or FF7 Rebirth

Wasted on Nuka-Cola Cherry Courier/Lone Wanderer, m/m: 'Meet Shoot'

Miles didn't outrun a goddamn rad-tornado to die of heatstroke in some plain-ass desert. Heard this place didn't get nuked, but damn was there a hot n' hazy yellow filter over it all- almost made him wish for like… spring? Something to change the colour. Missed the green haze the Capital Wasteland was famous for. The extra rads added character, and more limbs, but you got the good with bad.

Bleh didn't matter, found what he was looking for. A hidden Nuka-Cola storage a bit outside New Vegas, originally meant to be the launching point for a marketing comeback. Heard the locals liked Sunset Sasparillas better back then and now.

Utter savages they were.

Now then, time for him to snag him some Ice-Cold Nuka-Cola's, maybe even pop a Cherry or two open if they were there. No one would stand in his way! Any would-be looters would be finding themselves full of holes and blades soon.

Mean, not like there was anyone who could match ‘em.

I’ve made a document summarising and discussing Nowhere To Hyde, which you can find here! Since NTH intentionally misleads the reader about Jekyll and Hyde’s relationship to each other, I wanted to make this document to explain what this J&H rewrite is actually about, for those who would like clarification before reading the story.

You can either read the document yourself via the link, or below the cut, you can find screenshots of the most important parts of it.

The brainrot is real, ya’ll.

Almost isn’t Good Enough - Azula

Lightning Strikes Twice

The devastating realization, How being just a second too late changes everything.

He almost caught the lightning, he almost made it in time to save her–but.

Almost isn’t good enough now isn’t it?

And she paid the ultimate price.

Her life.

Hey, take the summary of a fic I wrote a while ago :)

Lan Zhan had never fully thought about it enough when he was younger, because he thought he wouldn’t have to ever personally deal with it. His family had a clean record, no one in his ancestral line had ever died of the “Depletion Illness” as the cultivators had started to call it. He thought he would be free of the mental baggage and torture that came with someone close to you becoming a victim of. He thought the people he finally got to spend his life with would be safe. But apparently not.

If you're interested in reading the rest, here's the link!

OH WOW!!!!! AWWWWWWW, I LOVE THIS!!!!!!! LOVE THE ART and ALREADY IN LOVE WITH THAT SUMMARY/FIC IDEA!!!!! S2 They BELONG!!!! They LOVE EACH OTHER!!!!!! :D LOVE LOVE LOVE If ANYONE writes something like this, PLEASE, LET ME KNOW!!! I would LOVE to READ IT!!!!! S2 I am ALSO a hopeless romantic! XD Thank YOU SO SO MUCH for this!!!! You are INCREDIBLE!!!!! :) <3

crashing between waves

Castiel decided to stay away from the roaring sea that almost took his life, but fate had different plans for him. Twenty years later, after his father's death, he found himself being forced to move to a small island that was mainly occupied by fishermen. All alone in a foreign environment, he tried to find a job that wouldn't involve setting a foot on a boat, but it seemed impossible. Desperate for an income, he contacted Dean, who put a job offer in a local newspaper. Of course, crashing between waves and fighting for his life once more wasn't the plan, but that's exactly what happened during his first shift on Dean's boat MARY. Too scared to get on water, he lost all hope. That was, until Dean started to help him overcome his fears, one step at a time, by sharing his own demons. Would they find a safe shore in each other?

This is a story of healing, finding peace and how fate can bring two broken people together, creating a profound bond.

•·················•·················•

While I was drawing I had this idea of fisherman!Dean and Castiel being terrified of the sea, so here's a little made up summary for a fic that lives in my head rent free now. I'm also a sucker for the red thread, so I had to include it too. I picture the story in shades of blue and green, accompanied by Hozier's music. A hopeless romantic, yeah. I've also tried out a new style and had lots of fun with it!

First entry for Stanuary and also a fanart for @detectivejigsawpines ‘s incredible fic Nothing More than Feelings with Hope, Fantasy, and Stubbornness celebrating being less depressed in the mindscape! Fantasy was not described but I imagined him as baby Stan in a pirate bandana. Hope I did your characters justice!

[aroaceleovaldez]

just read the plot summary for Wrath of the Triple Goddess and. wow this is. painful this just sounds painful to read.

Why is Grover the incompetent inciting incident character? That is not his narrative role ever, really. That's like, the fanon conceptualization of his character where he's reduced down to comedic relief and nothing more. He's mostly exposition and support. Why not have the inciting incident be something about Annabeth's hubris - something that has gotten the gang into situations tons of times before in a way that doesn't put down any of the characters? Heck you could have even tied it into some Sea of Monsters stuff, like Circe having told Annabeth that she'd make a good sorceress. That'd be perfect for how this book literally just exists to be advertising for s2 of PJOTV. Or maybe call-back to Percy's introduction, where he talks about how he doesn't try to cause problems but problems tend to find him. Or use the established personalities of Hecate's animal companions from HoO, since we know they have attitudes. Just what are you even doing here????

[she-who-fights-and-writes]

Hi! Firstly, thank you for creating this blog and helping all of us out! Secondly, and sorry if this is such a silly question, but how do you write an engaging summary?

I find my own fic summaries are so… lackluster… and not even I’m interested in reading it — so how I can I expect others to be? Even if I like my story, when I write the summary in the start of my fic/in my masterlist, I’m like “Wow… this is not even remotely interesting! 😭”

So yeah, I was wondering if you had any tips/advice for that? 😭 Totally fine if not, I just figured I’d ask. Thanks and have a great day/night! 😘

HOW TO WRITE AN ENGAGING FIC SUMMARY THAT WILL DRAW IN AUDIENCES

Summaries are the bane of many writers’ existences, including my own. It’s already hard enough to get the words down on paper for the actual story, and now people want you to convince them to read it with something more than “I WORKED REALLY HARD ON IT PLEASE IT’S GOOD I PROMISE!!!!”

Squishing a ton of context into a small blurb seems impossible, but I promise it can be done!

Obviously everyone goes about things differently, and a lot of these tips may not work for everyone, but nevertheless, here are some tricks on how to write an engaging summary!

Here’s a simple template I like to use, which will be the focus of this post:

Hook (Draw the reader in!)

Context (What are the core elements of your story?)

Cliffhanger (Introduce a question/scenario that the reader will want to click to know more about!)

1. Start With a Hook

Just like with the first sentence of a story, the first sentence of your summary should immediately spark the reader’s interest.

A bold statement! A good (short) quote from your fic! A shocking discovery! A cool word definition/the definition of your title!

I always like to put the hook of the story on its own line/paragraph, just to emphasize it.

Examples of a hook (Note, these are rushed and off the top of my head. Just meant to give a general idea, not be literary masterpieces): - "It all started when Character A puked on their Uber driver." - "War was inevitable." - "Character A would be dead by sunrise. That’s what Character B vowed." - "By the time they got to the city, it was too late."

Your hook is probably the most important part of your summary; someone will know within milliseconds whether or not they will continue reading.

Once you’re past that initial hump, it’ll be easier to convince a potential reader to skim the rest of the summary. Giving something that jumps out at them will set your story apart from others and ensure it gets that click you deserve!

2. Give Some Context

For shorter one-shots, sometimes a single hook is enough! But if your fic is longer, with a bit more moving parts, you might want to choose a few highlights. Get the essence of your story on paper.

This can be super hard, so don’t feel discouraged if you feel like you’re not getting it. I’d suggest keeping your context to about 1-3 sentences depending on the length of your story, so make sure they count.

Buzzwords are a key factor in getting the main points across. Use ones that relate to your main plot to your advantage! 

For example, if I were to make a short summary of Game of Thrones for someone who has never watched it before, I would definitely include some of these buzzwords: - Dragons - Conquest - Succession - Revenge - Slaughter - Betrayal

Using powerful words (i.e. slaughtered instead of killed) can help draw in your audience!

I can't dictate exactly how you should write your context, since every fic is different and shouldn't be brought under an umbrella of the same rules, so it might help to find inspiration from other people’s summaries.

3. Pose a Question the Reader Will Want the Answer To

The biggest point of a summary is the “so what?” factor. You have all of these tags, but how does the fic make use of them?

A summary shouldn’t be giving all of the answers, but it should still leave crumbs for the reader’s imagination! This doesn’t mean that you literally need to put a question in the summary, but rather pose an unresolved scenario/problem that the reader will want to click to know the solution to.

Here are some example sentence templates that pose an indirect question, often put at the end of a summary to spark interest (Note, these are rushed and off the top of my head. Just meant to give a general idea, not be literary masterpieces): - "Everything changes the moment Character A makes a choice they can't take back." (What is that choice? How does it affect the other characters?) - "As the truth comes to light, nothing will ever be the same." (What is the truth? How does it change things?) - "A dangerous game begins, and only one can emerge unscathed." (Who will be that person?) - “It’s the first time they meet, but it won’t be the last” (What will be these next instances? How do their worlds collide?)

4. Some General Advice

If you don't think the above format works well with your fic, here's just some general advice that can help you out!

DON'T MAKE IT TOO LONG

The biggest mistake I see writers making when posting their work is having a giant four-paragraph summary for their story that takes up half of the feed.

Unfortunately, in an age of fast swiping and instant gratification, a reader may skip over a super long summary simply because they don’t feel like reading all of it.

(The reason why long summaries work for books is because people are more patient when they intend on paying to read something; they’ll take more time considering investments than they would with a free read, since they want to make sure it's worth their money. It’s not fair, but that’s kind of how it goes.)

In my opinion, a fic summary should be no more than one short paragraph, two or three sentences max for a one-shot and maybe five sentences for a long fic.

This isn't exact. It really depends on the length and complexity of the sentence, because no matter the how many you use, if there are enough words to make folks comprehend it as a big block of text, then they’re going to be more likely to skip it.

People looking for long fics will be more patient (since they’re making an investment with their time, rather than money) but if you want to appeal to a wider audience that may be casually browsing and stumble across your fic, definitely consider a more brief route.

PROOFREADING MATTERS!

Because summaries are often an afterthought, many writers don’t put as much effort into it as they would the rest of their story.

I wouldn’t recommend this; people are basing their ENTIRE initial opinion of your fic on this small blurb.

If you rush it and make spelling or grammar errors, people will assume that the rest of your fic is also riddled with errors and scroll past!

Make sure to proofread!

Hope this helped, and happy writing!
