La Chimera by starlingsilver
Chapters: 1/? - PROLOGUE Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Summary:
It’s 1983. Remus Lupin, unlike most of his best friends, isn’t a dead man. Though, might as well. He has no job prospects in the wizarding world, and very little to show for himself in the muggle world, so for the last couple of years, after managing to put himself back together just enough to function, he’s decided to do what he’s always done best: run away. Hide, if you will. Pour himself into research as to occupy his every waking thought. Fate, or what have you, brings him to rural central Italy, to the lands that thousands of years ago were home to the Etruscans and the Latins. It’s a land ripe with magic, where ancient currents of energy flow underground like massive undiscovered rivers. Here, Remus gets tangled in more than one prohibited affair...
--- Inspired by Alice Rohwacher's gorgeous 2023 film "La Chimera" which I highly recommend!

ty for the tag @phoenixortheflame + @thecouchsofa! i would fill these out every day of my life. i only ever want to do myspace surveys or discover my own quizilla results.
Last song: bootleg of sufjan stevens ballet 'everywhere we go'
Favourite colours: something paled and grayed out, mossy maybe, but little licks of neon are important
Last book: i'm listening to dykette audiobook like it's a podcast and i hate it and it's wonderful. before that it'd been a minute but it was likely all fours by miranda july. @yiiiiiiiikes25 forced me (aka, they asked) into reading two chapters of ada by nabokov and it's swirling my brain around the tines of a giddy fork
Last fic: haarlem by spqr! hannigram, not drarry
Last movie: la chimera! i liked it a lot and i'll also watch anything with crumbling fresco set dressing and isabella rossellini
Last TV show: hannibal................
Sweet, spicy or savoury: if i even smell something spicy i'll die
Relationship status: "i'm not single, i'm available." - bobby hill
Last thing I googled: 'death mr freeze batman'
Current obsession: no COMMENT (the size of hugh dancy's eyes are frankly ridiculous who's allowing this kind of thing?)
Looking forward to: work day being over so i can return to my porch and read more hannibal fic it's really becoming a huge issue i'm kind of nervous guys i was fandom monogamous before this but god having an affair is so fun i feel truly alive edit a wip, a to-do list item i'm diligently doing and certainly not Not Doing
-
tagging @eleadore , @mintawasalreadytaken , @jtimu , @greattemptation and everyone else i want to know everything about you all

Show of hands who would read a human-verse Thiam fic with blind!Theo and his trusty guide dog Chimera, day to day called Chi (Kai), that are newly returned to Beacon Hills/LA as a promising young CFO of a upstart business venture and move in next door to Liam, the natural history museum docent that’s friends with the two high school best friends that run a local animal rescue?
It’s already in the making (1800 words in under 12 hrs), just seeing if y’all would be interested in it.
So far, Chi is MVP and deserves the best wingwoman award, because she is awesome and dedicated to getting these two to pull their heads out of their asses. Very dedicated.

(Chimera Teto x Android Miku WIP, another one, yeah, another one lol)
I may not finish WIPs but I can definitely start new drawings!! 😂Hahahaha ! I always try to make them chibis (for simplicity) but I also want to draw details/the full body, so of course it turns into a double full-body drawing that takes forever.... This isn't even the final lineart obviously but it's almost 5 AM again and I know I'm gonna fuss with this some more, so I guess here's a WIP so I can show off what I did at least tonight xD In case I decide to do other things in the meantime...
Tell me why I literally spent like 2 hours (fr) trying to draw Miku 'cuz Miku is hard asf to draw and challenges me to draw better 😂😂😂😂 Anyway (a long-ish) explanation of stuff under the read more 'cuz I don't want to take up people's dashboards. When I finally finish this drawing or the other one, I won't have to yap as much in the post too. xD
A series of things happened today that led to me creating this drawing. (Miku's prefinal lineart is done too btw, I'm just not showing her to you 'cuz no point spoiling the whole drawing lol, plus I might make changes.)
I went to the store for a brief moment 'cuz all my pens kept running out of ink and I was annoyed I didn't have any reliable pens and I wanted a pen to write a continuation to this AU, right.
When I went to the store, there was a song playing and I thought it sounded nice, what little I heard of it before I had to return to work. So once I left the store and was able to look at my phone again, I looked up this song through the lyrics I heard and I found it. And the whole song was even better than I thought: the lyrics and music are INCREDIBLY sweet and now I really like it. xD
Besides liking it in general as a song (this genre of song), I was ALSO super into it because I thought, "This is super End of the World AU-coded (Android Miku x Chimera Teto)" and it made me so happy, excited, and giddy lol.
Like, listen to this...
youtube
"When the cloud's above your head / And the sun's not breaking through / You know I'll be there to sing this song for you. / And it goes: / La la la / la la la la la~..."
This is absolutely something the Miku in my AU would sing. This is absolutely a song she and Teto would listen to together-- like, I could draw them listening to it together and that's actually practically what my drawing is lol. I could draw an animatic or make an MV to this song about them... I could make a comic where Miku is singing this directly to Teto and persuades her to sing it with her, especially the chorus (la la la) parts. I smile because in the first fic, Miku also goes "lalala~" (idk the number of la's lol), and it's not like what she sings is this or anything, but it's a small connection that I like. xD I literally discovered this song only today but this is absolutely a song Teto would have in either one of the cassette players or in the MP3 player. This song matches them and the AU too so Miku would absolutely sing it and like it a lot too. This song made me think of my AU and I was already excited/trying to keep writing more so I could get to the good parts, so finding this song made me really excited, ok. xD
Also I'm not sure how you WOULDN'T adore Miku if she sang something like this, especially directly to Teto (her only audience).
All the sweet lines and stuff made me super soft, so I put this song on loop and literally played it for hours. The whole time I was drawing too. It's just so cute and fitting and it's what made me create art for this AU again instead of making Turing Love fanart or one of the other dozens of ideas I have and whatnot. xD
That was a lot of words to explain what prompted this drawing in the first place when it wasn't planned in the slightest, but now I'll talk more about the drawing itself.
I was inspired by all the fanart I've received so far! It'll show in the final drawing. c: But when drawing this, I was looking at Slyvasta's art since I wanted to draw Slyvasta's version of Teto too. Teto is easiest to draw imo, so we've got the scarf, horn, wings, and tail. The pupils were actually added at the very end 'cuz Slyvasta's has sharp pupils and I thought that was cool and a good idea lol: this Teto's eyes can have sharp pupils (dragon/reptile-like) while Miku's eyes are more round yet robotic.
I was thinking about the flavor of tsundere that Teto is (in my AU) and this drawing was partially inspired by me wanting to clarify stuff about that. xD I did call her "cool, gruff, indifferent, etc." which is all true and does apply, but she's still playful and can be lively, even if she's been beaten down by exhaustion and gloominess, as I've mentioned. In other words, she never was a complete downer or anything (I know I said that before), but I wanted to clarify that she's not, like, the cold type who's ONLY frowning or who's grumpy either.
If I think about it, the "trying to act cool/indifferent" thing is mostly an act I think, yeah. xD Like, of course she'll frown or have a neutral uninterested expression if she's bored or she's been through annoying experiences (like starving or encountering various issues), but she's still kicking, if that makes sense. Like, the enthusiasm and zest for life isn't exactly there, but she's doing what she can to get by. I guess she's more of the type to distract herself and focus on other stuff so she doesn't get too existential? So it's not like she isn't lowkey depressed-- she's just the type to make jokes about it. She's basically original mischievous Teto but with some baggage she's carrying.
This might seem like a weird post now based on the stuff I'm writing LOL but I really did think about it, ok. xD The way to characterize her. And she has really valid reasons to be sad and everything, but she's not as harsh and edgy as her appearance implies. That's something that I really like about her: the gap moe lol.
So what does this mean in relation to Miku? Well, Teto is a pretty normal girl who's cool and nonchalant. She's probably arrogant in a cute way too, judging from her catchphrase and how she likes acting like a know-it-all and being praised/appreciated. But basically, the tsundere mainly comes out whenever she gets embarrassed.
The Teto in my AU can smile and has a couple of times, and she's nice because she helps Miku out before she even knows Miku that well. So....
She's probably the type to send Miku soft smiles without even realizing it. Like, she relaxes a lot and is happy or something and then her expression will turn so warm or gentle, I'm pretty sure. 🥰 Her tail and body language already gives her away, so I love the idea of her expression changing into a really affectionate one before she even notices or realizes it. She realizes she's been smiling the whole time after 5 whole minutes pass or Miku points it out and then she's like, "I-I wasn't smiling or anything?! (unsure why she's immediately denying it)" lol.
Anyway, THAT'S when the tsundere comes out. She isn't tsundere towards Miku unprompted, and even though Teto doesn't know how to deal with Miku YET, that doesn't mean Teto walks on eggshells around her or is curt/cold to her. Teto acts very naturally and herself-- she only gets tsundere whenever she's NOT acting like herself, aka being really weak or soft for Miku at different moments.
Her tsundere is a weak kind of tsundere too (unlike Neru, who isn't in this AU anyway), so she'll just get embarrassed or lie or act kinda awkward or prickly to hide her embarrassment (maybe a sharp word or two, along the lines of "Shush" and "Shuddup"), but in the end, she's a very cute and kind girl. 🥰 They both are 🥰🥰🥰
It might take me one or two more iterations before I'm finally satisfied with the final lineart, but this time, I made the time lapse longer, so you'll be able to see how I struggled to draw Miku for like 2 whole hours. xD
This, too, I want to color. I actually wanted to color my first drawing first, but then I discovered the song I mentioned earlier and it made me so hyped up that I wanted to create a whole new piece about it. Along with the other two songs that I associate with this AU, I was really happy to find yet another one. This song is cute in general too, so it was immediately added to my Motivation playlist. xD
With how hard Miku is to draw and how long drawing takes in general, it makes me even more impressed with Miku artists lol. Like, Miku is so demanding but I love her so of course I'll push through until I do her justice... I'm slow because I care a lot and want to do these two right, ok... xD Lineart and the like is more in my comfort zone, but I'll definitely tackle coloring soon; tonight's session only proves that it'll take longer than I expected/5 hours lol.
I'm not only planning to create stuff for my AU only-- I want to make all kinds of Mktt stuff. But I was really inspired by other people's art and this time, I even drew with their art in mind lol.
I have no idea how long it'll take, but I'll continue to make more art! To me, it's the clearest way I show/understand my love lol. I've been inspired seeing other people's art too, so I definitely wanted to draw my own....
Anyway, time to go tf to sleep. (it's 6 AM 😅)

My fics <3 (completed)
All the love we unraveled (and the life i gave away) 3.1k, Thiam.
Thinks I wasn’t sure i even knew how to feel this way anymore. I didn’t think i was capable of doing anything other than harm. I thought all my hands knew how to do was hurt and take and ruin, but you keep proving me wrong. Please, understand i’m trying my best. Please, see me. See me, see me, see me see
Or: what happened between the time they left the hospital and made it to Liam’s house.
Tell me that we’ll be just fine (Even when i lose my mind) 6.3k, Thiam
"What? No 'Thank you for saving my ass, Theo'?, No 'I'm sorry you had to carry my deadweight through this abandoned zoo while hunters are trying to kill us, Theo. That was really brave of you, Theo.'? Oh, wow, Liam! You are so very welcome for saving your ungrateful ass for the millionth fucking time." Theo growls, eyebrows pinched.
"Do you even need me for this conversation?" Liam says, unimpressed.
Or: The five times Theo had to knock Liam out before they were able to leave the zoo.
Close my eyes, fantasize, three clicks and i’m home 3.7k, Thiam
pain·kil·ler
/ˈpānˌkilər/
noun
1. a drug or a medicine for relieving pain.
Examples: Ibuprofen, Advil, The way Liam is looking at him right now.
Or, Alternatively; Liam comes home to find Theo bleeding out on his floor when he's been MIA for two months.
Cause everyone’s growing, and everyone’s healthy (i’m terrified i might never have met me) 20.3k, Thiam
He's allowing Liam to step into his space, to see the worst part of him and say ‘See me, know me, understand that this is the worst of me but it is not who I am. I am a better version of myself. I am not the worst of my actions. I am more. You know me.’
And hope that Liam understands and accepts him anyways.
Or, alternatively: A post hell fic and the road to healing.
Of Gods and Monsters 3.1k, Thiam
The definition of Chimera goes as follows:
"(in Greek mythology) a fire-breathing (female) monster with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail."
Which is true, but Chimera can also mean:
"A thing that is hoped or wished for but in fact is illusory or impossible to achieve."
Or: Theo’s battle with religion and his belief in God.
I’m here, right here, wishing i could be there for you 3.6k, Thiam
"I just wanted to let you know I'm not mad anymore. Snail la vie, or whatever."
"What la vie?"
Or: There's a halloween party, Liam is a little high, Theo is a little annoyed and they're both a little bit in love.
Crimson stained hands 896, Thiam (Implied)
No amount of scrubbing is going to rid the permanent red tint to his hands.
or: Theo is trying very hard to keep himself together.

WIP Wednesday Game (by @kedreeva )
It’s WIP Wednesday, time for a little accountability, sharing your work, and getting a kick in the pants.
Here’s how it works:
In a reblog of this post (so people can find you in the notes) or new thread (w/ rules attached) if you want to play on your own, post up to five (5) filenames of your WIPs; not titles, file names.
Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to play!
After you’ve posted, people can send you an ask with one of your file names. You must then write 3 sentences in that file. If the filename is one you can't share from (for example, an event or gift fic), write 3 sentences on it anyway, and then 3 more on another to share.
That’s it! You can invite others to join in, or just post. I’ll be searching the reblogs to find people to send asks to!
If you’re reading this, you’re invited!
If you see someone posting a WIP Wednesday Game snippet, send them an ask! Make them write.
Requested/Friend event mentions under the cut! If you'd like to be pinged next week, send me a message to ask!

Snippet from : Liam's BI crisis
Buck entered his apartment, letting out a relieved sigh at being able to sleep for the next few hours after a long twenty four hour shift. That and the fact he was still reeling from his first kiss with a guy.
Something he didn't even know he had wanted untill Tommy's lips met his own.
He had been in the haze ever since. This confusion because he wanted to do it again... and again and again.
Walking towards his stairs to head to the second level of the loft, he froze as a bag sat on his kitchen counter pulled his attention.
He frowned at the bag. That wasn't his bag. He didn't own a bag like that. He was carrying his only bag on his body right now.
Instantly the hairs on the back of his neck rose. Something wasn't right.
The aroma of a take out hit his nose.... was that.... Chinese food?
Buck slowly dropped his own bag, wincing at the loud thud it made as it hit the floor. He reached over to grab the bat he had stashed by the stairs slowly so as not to draw any attention to himself.
He could see someone in his living room area spawled across the couch..... whoever it was was sleeping? Faint snores just about reaching Bucks ears.
He grabbed the bat, walking towards the figure. He really wasn't in the mood for whatever bullshit was happening right now.
"Hey!" He shouted, bat raised.
Two things happened simultaneously. The sprawled figure jackhammered upwards, shouting a loud confused 'what' before sliding off the couch face first to the floor.
"Ow." The figure - no the boy - groaned, slowly climbing to his feet. Buck cleared his throat, alerting the boy to his presence but the bat still gripped tight in his hands.
The boys head whirled up to face him. Buck felt his own face grown confused and very exasperated, blinking at the blatant teenager that should be miles away and not in LA.
"Uncle Ev!" The boy shouted, sounding nervous based on the crack in his voice as he shifted on the spot with a small, just as obviously nervous smile. Blue eyes flickering between Buck, the bat, and the phone on the table.
"Liam......" Buck said, the smile on Liam’s face widening at being recognised. It had been three years since he last seen the kid.
"Please don't tell my mom."
And obviously, the kid was looking to have his other older sister kill him.

faliiiiinnnnnnnn
Falin!
Tumblr media
How I feel about this character: it's actually kinda funny upon further reflection that she's one of my favorite characters. because I reread dungeon meshi a lot (just random chapters) to try and absorb the dialogue and she's barely present? Obviously, she haunts the text, and chimera!Falin shows up pretty regularly, but her herself? barely there! mostly post-canon! she rocks though to be clear.
I think what I like most about her is how the person viewing her subtly shapes what we expect from her. I remember being somewhat surprised she was so cordial with her parents still, as Marcille was, because even though Laios acknowledged the possibility of her not being as strongly affected by their upbringing, I didn't actually believe that would be the case. I enjoy that all of her loved ones have these lens on that mean you do get to see Falin, but almost always through these curtains of bias first. I don't know what it means for me that part of why I like her is because of getting to peel back that curtain every so often. LMAO
All the people I ship romantically with this character: Farcille, for starters, which I won't dwell on. basically everyone loves it. LET'S TALK OTHER STUFF!!!!
if I had a nickel for every time I wrote Asivia falling for a lady despite being at Laios' court in post-canon presumably to 'try again', I'd have two nickels. this is becoming a funny trend. anyway won't mention the other fic but I have this general idea for Asivia having an interest in dragoness Falin that no one really picks up on because I like mess. I still don't really know if I want the interest to be reciprocated or not. but I think Asivia is neat. I support women trying to get money out of guys, even if said guy is my fave. enough about Laios though. in terms of attraction, I think it's mostly a matter of beauty and power as the starting point. that might sound not genuine, but I think the draw of the power part of Falin is a fascination with the freedom she now represents and embodies. I dunno though, I've basically invented Asivia in my head.
there's also Rin, which I can only express this way
Tumblr media
no one sees my vision though
My non-romantic OTP for this character: Laios (I wish good big brothers were real) of course. Marcille also. I think those are the main ones. That isn't to diminish her bond with any other character, just OTP is a big weighty term to me and those are the dynamics I've dwelled on the most. I should change that though bc Chilchuck calling her strange (if I recall right) in his relationship map (or hers?) was funny to me. you did all that for a girl you think is weird? aight, grump grump
My unpopular opinion about this character: she should have killed more people actually-
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: my dream... my sole dream... is a random ass bonus thing that's 'Falin's traveling journal' a la Senshi's journal and we get to see countries in the dungeon meshi world that weren't named and life is good. life is so good. my final message. gootbye

2022 Writers' Review
It's already two months into the year, but I'm still going to do this, because I think it's such a nice thing. I was tagged by @lavandulacosmos and @natures-marvel thank you! 💕
1. What is your AO3 account?
brownest_goldfish
2. How many words did you write total in 2022?
34'481, according to AO3 stats
It's not a lot of words, but I feel like this was the year I've developed most as a writer so far, especially writing the first chapter of Lamb and the last chapter of my spooktober fic and I'm very proud of that ✨
3. How many fics did you publish in 2022? How many multichapters vs oneshots?
12 fics, 3 multichaptered and 9 oneshots (and of the 3 multichaptered ones only one is finished so you can see that this is not where my strength lies agajsks but i'm trying to do it more and i actually love it!)
4. What was your longest fic? Your shortest fic?
"A Lover in the story" (finished) is the longest at 9987 words but I published 5000 of those in 2023. Otherwise the longest is "A Lamb for Our Love" at 8618 words so far (one of two chapters)
The shortest is "With a smile" at 412 words. The shortness is owed to it being only one scene, more of a picture I imagined after reading Cry Wolf by @roccinan – and since I can't draw, I decide to write it down 🥰
5. What was your most popular fic? Your least popular fic?
I find this so hard to say, because numbers can never really encapsulate this, and every piece of appreciation from anyone for any fic is a gem in itself. But just for simplicity I'll go for Kudos and Hits here:
The one with most Kudos and Hits is funnily one I didn't write for Berlermo, but for "Arcane" as a birthday gift for @stilljustbitten: "Ice blue" got 113 Kudos and 842 Hits, probably owed to the fact that this fandom is just a bit bigger. My most popular Berlermo fic in 2022 in numbers is "Art and Attraction" at 83 Kudos and 755 Hits.
The least popular in numbers is "Love wins" at 16 Kudos and 146 Hits.
6. What fic didn’t perform as well as you thought it would?
I didn't expect a specific amount of reaction on any of them, so I'd say none of them. Every interaction with on of my fics just made me go "oh!🥰"
7. What fic performed way better than you thought it would?
I'd say "Like the Painting of a sorrow" because it was this oneshot I came up with, wrote and posted within 24 hours, a random idea after reading Dorian Gray. That being said, I am very proud and fond of it, so it made me so happy that it was appreciated!
And also "Love wins", I struggled getting the first chapter together and was worried it was too chaotic, and I was so happy it got good feedback.
8. What was your favorite fic you wrote from 2022?
I'm most proud of and currently most emotionally attached to "A Lover in the story". I'm especially proud of the last chapter, mostly because I managed to write it at all and make something I really like of it.
A Lamb for our Love stands right next to it though – although it's still not finished. (Not because I neglected it, but just because the second chapter is so hard to write) and I'm so excited for what it will become <3
9. What was your favorite fic that somebody else wrote in 2022?
Reducing this to one would be a shame, so I'll list a few 😊
and that was the moment i knew by @alfredo-kesmann
Andrés has Hanahaki disease and coughs up red roses. Whose favourite flowers could those be?
It had started with inconspicuous coughing, a few weeks ago. Soon followed the shaky breaths, the trouble breathing normally at random times. Then, came the shaking fingers, half a week later, creating unavoidable unsteady black lines in the painting he had been working on, the jawline of his self portrait now ruined.
A beautiful take on the trope, with all the drama befitting Berlermo, and overall an extremely romantic and enjoyable read.
Chimera 키메라 by @signorin-anarchia
A sort of crossover of Money Heist Korea and La casa de papel. Andrés is in the concentration camp Korean Berlin was in. Martín joins him there.
His mother's arms are a cradle, a safe haven.
A shelter from all that is evil on earth.
He can remember the faded feeling of bones colliding, rubbing, which nevertheless feels as comfortable as nothing in the world.
Nothing in the whole world.
But there's never much more than anything in the world.
And now his mother's arms are pincers, stealing his life, locking his way.
A very interesting concept with beautiful execution, and very poetic prose that aches just right when you read it.
The Swan's Symphony by @nharidy
Martín plans another and executes heist after the gold heist, and a rescue mission for Andrés on the side – who is alive but asuffering <3. All the old members of the gang are there, and also a lot of new additions.
“Is this true?” Estocolmo asked, turning to El Professor. Mirko, however, was looking at Palermo. It doesn't matter whether it's true or not , he realized. Palermo wasn’t there because one night in the future he might get killed in his bed. 
No, he was there for the one and only reason he's ever done anything since Mirko knew him.
El Profesor sighed.
This genuinely feels like a continuation of lcdp. It gives all the vibes of the show, the characters, their interactions and the action, flashbacks and execution of the heist are spot on. Just overall extremely fun to read.
Remember what your old pal said by @roccinan
La casa de papel Toy Story AU. Andrés is a bullfighter doll, and he finds Martín in the collection he belongs to. But what is Martín really up to?
Andrés is beautiful. And he doesn’t need a mirror to tell him what he already knows. Because he can stare at anything that bounces back light for a wonderful view of himself from head to toe: sunglasses, helmet visors, watches, or even the window on a bright spring day.
He has a slim, well-proportioned frame, a statuesque figure that expertly hides a body of incredible might and power within its wires.
This is genuinely just hilarious, and Andrés is perfectly delusional in it. And the Berlermo romance is so sweet – with an added element of darkness, of course.
10. Tag your friends to do this year-end fic review as well!
I think everyone has already been tagged and done this agajsks but I'll tag the ones I haven't seen doing it, please just ignore this if you have ✌🏼💕 @dormarunt @liz @signorin-anarchia @oreo @lammaducks ✨

Fic Ideas (free to a good home)
Long masterpost of various plot bunnies and fic ideas I’ve had over the years, for various fandoms. Pick them up if you’re interested. 
Note: the formating on this only works if you go to my blog itself, not on dashboard.
TRANSFORMERS:
Human town AU, in the 80s. Mining town where the mines have since closed. Shockwave owned the mine and was in with the government, secretly mining uranium. Outliers = shockwave sponsored children’s ward at hospital for all these kids turning up with cancer. Megatron was a miner, now running for a government position (state governor). Shady deals with local gangs. Beating up gangsters. Running Overlord out of town.
Empurata Optimus. Caught by Sentinel Prime during the time when he’s running with the outliers. Make an example of him like they did with Shockwave. Mnemosurgery to make him ‘Lawful’. However following the letter of the law and their government conflicts and he is able to break through the mental block. Alpha Trion gets him the Matrix. Joins the Decepticons. MegOp.
Starscream gets to be happy and learn he can win by actually making things better for people. Wheeljack helps. People stop being mean to him and he gets over his trauma. 
Rung remembers he’s Primus from the beginning and tries to stop the war.
RIVERS OF LONDON:
Role reversal AU, somewhat based on sixthlight’s ‘Changes of Perspective’:
 the Folly/Little Crocodiles being the mainstream and Nightingale being the ‘faceless man’. Similar background with Ettersberg happening differently, Folly still being around, Chorley et al joining in the traditional way and getting up to all sorts of unethical things. Lesley POV at least at first - she goes to murder squad, peter goes to case progression. Peter ghost hunting, meets nightingale, but no transfer as nightingale isn’t police. Learning magic in secret - Lesley is aware something’s up but reckons peter is trying to keep his new posh bf secret. Different jobs mean they see less of each other anyway. Lesley partly caught up in Punch thing tho not as pretty polly - sees Folly magic during Chelsea riots and is selected as police liaison. Picks up magic similarly to canon, so they are forced to train her. 
Magic still a well kept secret - rich, important people know, general public less so.
Time advances. Lesley and Chorley get on/work well together. Slowly inducted into Dark Side of Folly, human experimentation, unethical magic, right-wing bigot attitudes a la canon. Drifting further apart from Peter, who is moving slowly up his own side of the career ladder. Seems outwardly to have lost some of his drive/ambition, but this is because of split attention between police and wizardry.
Nightingale left Folly after war with David Mellenby to retire - soured by war. David kept on with scientific assessment of magic, ended up recruiting some students, associating more deeply with demimonde, was deemed to be a threat by the Folly and died suddenly and inexplicably - murdered, but that can’t be proved. David had been keeping enough of all this from Thomas that he wasn’t targeted by Folly at same time - also some fear of Nightingale’s power. Subsequently Thomas withdrew from the world even more, and then the anti-aging started to happen, and he dropped off the Folly’s radar (or, Folly tried to kill him, he escaped, and faked his own death?)
Nightingale running an ‘underground railroad’ for victims of the Folly - chimeras, fae and the like
Nightingale trying to amass enough power to take down the Folly’s wards, hence various ritual things as per Faceless Man, and eventually coming to the Folly’s attention once more, though they don’t know who he is
Nightingale doesn’t want outward war with Folly because of collateral damage to demi-monde, they keep trying to force a confrontation, even though lots of fear of his level of power/speculation about still being alive and how
Base of operations - family property, but might not have been able to legally inherit it? False identity from the Rivers, owes them a favour - possibly paying that back by running the demimonde safehouse. 
Some kind of Dresden Files casefic crossover
Magnus Archives crossover:
has Chorley been working toward an Entity ritual this whole time? The Lonely was trying to get Nightingale during the time he was the Last Bastion of English Magic. Newtonian magic and the genius locii as something unconnected to the 14 - not everything is lovecraftian horror, but the Archives tend not to run into nice things. 
Black Library is full of ‘Leitner’ books
halley/raynier and newton were friends - the Dark has been concealing knowledge of the Dread Powers from Newtonian wizards for a long time
It starts with a book Peter finds at the goblin market, one which has strange signare and which Nightingale takes from him very quickly before it can get its teeth into him too much
Peter and Arcane Architecture - robert smirke et al
Sometime mid season 4/2018 but pre apocalypse, enough for trauma-hungry archivist and peter has a lot of trauma
STAR WARS:
Twin Sunrise universe rewrite of the ST:
Ben Solo has been having dreams of the desert for as long as he can remember. It’s hot and dry and he is always hungry. The sand is a graveyard of Imperial vessels, remnants of the civil war. He has told his parents about his dreams, but none of them have any idea what they mean. Then one night there are voices in the dream. Voices upon voices, screaming at him. 
Ben has been training with his mother and uncle in the ways of the Force along with other children who had previously been destined to be Inquisitors
Hux Palpatine is growing up alongside him, with some strength in the Force but not enough to have been a Republic Jedi. He and Ben are tentative boyfriends. 
Rey is a wage-slave in the desert of Jakku and she’s had a running commentary in her head for as long as she can remember, going on about the Sith and her Destiny.
The ST but Finn is the main character and it’s about brainwashed stormtroopers and the political state of the galaxy makes sense.
Maul trains Grogu AU:
Maul is the one who comes for Grogu on Tython and he gets there before Luke does. 
Luke arrives too late and is very confused. 
Time Travel Vader AU:
Vader gets sent physically back in time, suit and all, and runs around the galaxy fucking shit up, threatening his younger self, pining over Padme, keen on killing Palpatine etc. 
The Jedi think he’s some ancient Sith Lord from the Old Empire who has been in carbonite this whole time or something. 
Purge Trooper Cody! Au:
That one tumblr post basically.
ATLA:
Ozai is ‘helping’ AU: 
Ursa fails to assassinate Azulon, and is killed. Ozai flees the palace before he is imprisoned and executed, and ends up having to leave the Fire Nation after he is proclaimed a traitor. 
Being too open with his firebending in the Earth Kingdom is… troublesome. Killing is fine, but even Ozai can’t take on entire Earth regiments. He resolves to be more sneaky. 
Still refuses to use bladed weapons, just martial arts forms. 
The ‘Red Dragon’ spirit - Ozai is rather enjoying having the freedom to hunt and murder people occasionally on his travels and have it blamed on a fire spirit. It’s how he de-stresses. 
Some years later Ozai is no closer to finding a way to kill his father and his brother and reclaim the throne. He is aware his children were adopted officially by Iroh. After Aang wakes up, he spends longer in the South Pole before leaving to travel north with Katara and Sokka. They run into Ozai on Kyoshi Island, who immediately sees this as an opportunity.
Ozai doesn’t intend to win forgiveness by capturing the Avatar, but given that he is an official traitor to the Fire Lord, why doesn’t that make him one of the ‘good guys’? - not that he tells them all the details about why he’s a traitor/ The Avatar and his two water barbari… friends could surely benefit from some adult supervision/protection, yes? And the Avatar will eventually need a firebending teacher. 
Ozai is really enjoying manipulating these children - more than he should considering its beneath his dignity - but the longer he travels with them the more he hates their damn childishness. He has to find time to go and… ‘relieve his stress’. After a while the tales of the Red Dragon spirit reach Aang’s ears, and he’s horrified that such an evil spirit seems to be following him - he will have to find it and deal with it! That… doesn’t really work. 
“I’ll save you from the pirates!” Murders everyone. 
FMA/ATLA crossover:
Ed and Roy Mustang get caught up in some human transmutation kookyness and sent through the Gate to the ATLA world. Alchemy doesn’t really work there, but Truth is able to align them to bending elements - Roy to Fire and Ed to Earth. They pop out somewhere in the Earth Kingdom and spend some time getting the lay of the land and working out what they can do now. 
Unfortunately they figure out the bending before figuring out the political situation, and Mustang firebends in front of Earth soldiers. The pair are taken captive. 
This is the same Earth unit that ends up capturing Iroh - when Zuko comes for him, they all escape together. 
Mustang tells people Ed is his son without an understanding of the implications of a firebender with an earthbending kid. This doesn’t go over well with the Earth soldiers. 
Ed and Roy have to get to somewhere spiritual in order to get back home, so end up travelling with Zuko for a while. They know they’re only getting one side of the story of the war, and Mustang isn’t going to risk making any moral judgements about any side. 
CRITICAL ROLE:
Established relationship complicated by ep 97:
Caleb and Essek started up a relationship before the revelation that he was behind stealing the beacons in S02E97. Lots of guilt feelings pre-97 from Essek. Caleb trying to figure out how he feels about Them after it. Forgiveness and coming back together by the time of Aeor and the endgame.
Time travel AU:
Something bad happens with Trent after Aeor etc and Essek travels back in time to meet the Mighty Nein and try and eliminate Trent before it gets to that point. 
Who is this mysterious drow wizard adventurer? Essek falls back on Secrets and doesn’t tell them who he is or even that he knows them. Just poses as a regular adventurer who shares their goals. Weird tension with Caleb and Molly, but he doesn’t know much is safe to explain, and doesn’t want to jeopardize the relationship that ought to build between the Caleb and Essek of his own timeline. 
Perhaps he looks slightly different as well from injuries sustained in final fights. Still has the eye tattoo as a memento of Cognousa - previously it had no power left, but here and now… 
Initially Mighty Nein POV reacting to this stranger. Drips and drabs of Essek POV. 
Scourger/Evil!AU:
Loyal weapon Bren escorts his Master Trent to meet with the Shadowhand who is delivering the beacons for a research project. He is very curious about said research, but that isn’t what he is For. He is For Killing Traitors. 
Essek starts to get concerned about the lack of research feedback and knowledge sharing from the Assembly. He starts to reach out for answers but keeps being rebuffed. Bren is sent to warn him off, reminding him of mutually assured destruction but also that he has much more to lose than they do. Once in Essek’s tower though, Bren is caught off-guard by the drow’s dunamancy and is knocked out or otherwise imprisoned. 
Conversation. Both find themselves intrigued by the other. Bren wants Trent dead and sees Essek as an opportunity. Essek wants a way to know what the Empire knows about the beacons. They decide to work together. 
Secret meetings in between their other responsibilities. Sharing magic. Trading Beacon research for dunamancy knowledge. Impressed by each other’s ruthless ambition. Intellectual attraction becomes physical attraction. 
Then the attempt to steal the beacons back and the Mighty Nein’s involvement (called something else now because no Caleb. Chaos Crew?)
Professor Caleb:
Students in his transmutation class at the solstryce academy trying to figure out what his deal is, and why he has so many boyfriends - a new one every few months!
Other volstrucker AU:
Volstrucker Caleb AU where he and his team attack and kidnap the Shadowhand... not knowing that his brother Verin is friends with a mercenary group called The Mighty Nein who immediately start hunting their asses to get his asshole brother back as a favor to their friend.
AU where the hot boi the M9 are friends with is an echo knight panicking about his evil brother getting nabbed and said evil brother is just being a BITCH to Bren, Astrid, and Eodwulf the whole time. Volstrucker trio torment.
MDZS:
XiYao Dark post-canon AU:
LXC takes JGY back to Cloud Recesses and imprisons him in the jingshi in knowing mirror of his father’s actions. JGY has core sealed and house is warded. Plus knows all allies are dead. LXC being driven darker and darker by grief. Relationship goes back to being sexual - maybe JGY is trying to manipulate him but he tells himself he won’t be caught by that, but also wants him so much still. Lots of twisted emotions and no happy ending.
The juniors thoughts on LWJ and (to them) MoXuanyu being in a relationship. Speculation re: replacing WWX given the physical similarities. // LWJ has actually been fucking lots of demonic cultivators in the 13 years. 
What if Baxia shipped NieYao!AU. Sabers have the ability to discern truthfulness via blood?
LSZ feeling guilty about being in love with three people (JL LJY, Ouyang) when real Lans are only meant to have one true love.
No-one survives the burial mounds - WWX dies there when he’s dropped in. WWX came back wrong trope. JC noticing little things are off. Genuine evil. LWJ too much in love to let himself see it.
Murder twink basement crew shenanigans. Perhaps Xue Yang brings his new boyfriends home to meet the family?
Jin Ling grapples with the legacy of his uncle and complicated/ambivalent feelings towards him
Wangxian Evil!Ghost AU, inspired by that one fic:
Lan Wangji makes contact with a spirit when playing Inquiry. Trying to get it to move on, but this proves difficult. Talking builds a relationship. Wei Ying introduces himself by that name. Everything seems normal enough.
Little details about WWX’s life start to strike LWJ as odd, but he is reassured by WWX each time.
WWX persuades LWJ to travel to the Burial Mounds. They talk about the history of the place - centuries ago the founder of demonic cultivation the Yiling Patriarch ruled the area and eventually died there. WWX “huh, sounds cool, no i don’t recognise that story why’d you ask ha ha”.
Once inside the Burial Mounds WWX reveals that he is indeed the Yiling Laozu and manifests as an evil ghost. 
LWJ realises. He fucked up!
LXC goes after his brother but its already too late. He’s been killed and is stuck as a ghost by WWX’s side forever!
Reincarnation Wangxian AU, inspired by that comic:
Modern times but the Xianxia past is real. WWX is currently alive and reincarnated, living as a historian. He moves to Gusu for research purposes. 
Back then, LWJ died from the thirty-three strokes and wasn’t around to see WWX reincarnated. That’s why he’s been haunting Cloud Recesses as a ghost for so long. WWX was brought back by Mo Xuanyu, but wasn’t able to avoid detection with LWJ to protect him. JC tracked him down and that was a whole… situation. JGY framed him for the arm thing and the cultivation world demanded his death. 
NHS ended up going after JGY in a totally unsubtle way and just… ended up assassinating him. It caused another war and all the major sects were caught up in it. Nie Clan ended up destroyed. Tumultuous period. Bad ending all round. 
WWX is haunted by LWJ’s ghost. Magic is real??? 
IDK romance and historical discovery. WWX gets several published papers out of this. 
Yiling patriarch/evil overlord trope:
Many years ago the yiling patriarch ruled the yiling wei sect and did necromancy shit. Sects got together to bring him down and defeated/killed him. A backlash curse from his death created the Burial Mounds. 
In the ‘present’, LWJ is doing normal Lan things. How modern do we want to go? 
Somehow the yiling patriarch has returned!
Wangxian meetcute. 
Rebuilding the yiling wei? Chilling and doing necromancy things? Enrolling in university to see how far the studies of necromancy have come since his day? Revenge? World domination?

1. How many total works do you have on AO3?: unofficially 144 but really 79 since until 2022 I didn’t use the chapter system properly for my longfics.
2. What’s your total word count?: 739,872 as of this past Saturday night/Sunday morning.
3. What fandoms do you write for?: Uncharted, Tomb Raider, Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto, Mortal Kombat, Tekken, Call of Duty, Resident Evil, and Timesplitters.
4. Top 5 fics by Kudos?: Tomb Raider-Shadows of The Treasure Hunters (202), Red Damsel Redemption (88), Chapter 9 (La Dorada) of Uncharted: Samuel’s Fortune (80), Uncharted: Ransom’d Reporter (77), and Abduction Armageddon 2023: Muffling and Stuffing of Marina Sanchez (73). Note that unfortunately I was hit by kudos bots so these are likely inflated.
5. Do you respond to comments?: ALWAYS.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?: I’m sure I could pick a few…aw heck, we’ll go with Shokan Snatchup. Won’t say other than Sheeva is a hostage and will see and feel…unpleasant things that will break even a Shokan like her.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?: Happiest ending? Uh, uh, uh…fuck it, Tomb Raider: Shadows of the Treasure Hunters. Slightly altered ending of Shadow of the Tomb Raider where Lara meets her current hero.
8. Do you get hate on fics?: I’ve had only two haters and shockingly not for writing the most fucked up fics with rape and murder. Of all the things they could criticize me for, I got spat at for the classic masturbation trope along with a GTA “fan” trying to tell me Tony Prince is exclusively homosexual when he’s publicly homosexual, privately bi-sexual.
9. Do you write smut?: YES, ABSOLUTELY. When I’m not writing torture, rape, and murder or classic fix its/crossovers, I LOVE SMUT. M/F in particular btw.
10. Craziest crossover?: So far…Uncharted and Call of Duty, both complete and WIP. Ransom’d Reporter throws the Uncharted trio of Nate, Elena, and Sully into the Modern Warfare reboot universe and 141’s fight against both Al Qatala and Roman Barkov’s occupant rogue Russian army in Urzikstan. And it’s all thanks to Al Qatala kidnapping Elena when she goes to Urzikstan: it’s up to Nate to find the country’s most valuable artifact, but only with the help of 141 and more importantly Farah Karim.
Honorable mention to my still developing second storyline within of Nadine Ross post-Lost Legacy going back to her mercenary roots, but for Nikolai’s Chimera and ultimately helping Farah continue to free Urzikstan from both occupation and terror.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?: To my knowledge, nope.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?: Same answer as #11.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?: Nope.
14. All-time favorite ship?: Nathan Drake and Chloe Frazer, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?: Rn, Roth and The Ransom. So much has gone into this, but unfortunately I keep hitting walls haha. It’s a weird Tomb Raider 2013 crossover with Grand Theft Auto of all fandoms (another honorable mention for #10). It involves Lara and the Endurance gang going to Liberty City for a break, but unfortunately Roth owes a lot of money to the remnants of the Rascalov-Bulgarin Bratva. And ultimately they kidnap his Little Bird. Their demand: find the lost St. Petersburg Pearl worn by the last Tsarina or Lara could be their captive forever…and where will Roth have to go?: Azerbaijan.
16. What are your writing strengths?: I’d like to think my action and of course my kidnapping sequences plus ofc my many bits of lore and research really shine well, especially in my newer fics from 2022 onwards. Along with of course the character development and voicing of my casts. Often times from fans of said series, I get complimented for ‘that’s how they sound in the games!’.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?: I’d say I’m unfortunately not a beta/editor at heart so 99.999% of my shit at most is unofficially finished lol and I’m sure my fics have all types of the smallest errors or run on sentences. Plus I kinda suck at not trying to shorten certain scenes lol.
18. Thoughts on dialogue in another language?: Cool as long as you have translations either within the lines or in the author notes. Also of course as long as scene remains understandable.
19. First fandom you ever wrote in?: Uncharted, April 2020. First two things I wrote were my Prologues for first two fics (Uncharted 3 fix it and post-Lost Legacy AU).
20. Favorite fic you've written?: DONT MAKE ME CHOOSE.
Uh, uh, uh…
Uncharted: Rika’s Revenge. First foray into couple/guy in distress. Began my Rika Raja Yandere arc against Nate and Chloe.
Tomb Raider: Currently WIP darkfic fix it of Tomb Raider 2013. Dark and fucked up game as is but now I get to go all the way with it. Also my most viewed fic to date.
Red Dead Redemption: First Reader Insert fic from November 2023. A spite fic made to have Sadie Adler and The Woman With No Name suffer.
Grand Theft Auto: You Will Pay, Mi Amor. Most recent GTA fic and was written to switch things up slightly. One of my favorite GTA characters is Tony Prince (HAPPY PRIDE MONTH BTW 🏳️‍🌈) and he gets into too many screwups plus his friendship with Luis Lopez is awesome. ANYWAYS, I’ve merged the PS2 GTAs with 4 onwards and who other then Catalina from San Andreas and III to make him her bitch.
Mortal Kombat/Tekken: got to go with my MK11 fix it in league with Tekken 4 crossover. Was so cool to attempt writing the King of Iron Fist Tournament and the Mishima saga vs the craziness that is Mortal Kombat. But more importantly was to attempt a partial fix it of MK11 starting with Dark Raiden doing what he should’ve done in 11.
Call of Duty: My two part debut COD crossover fic from 2021 of Farah Karim and Nadine Ross teaming up against Victor Zakhaev and Al Qatala in Urzikstan and Verdansk, having to save each other’s asses.
Resident Evil: Tie between my debut RE fic from 2022 and my most recent RE fic, a smutfic. The star: my cutie, hot, gorgeous, sexy secretary and Leon Kennedy’s TRUE LOVE-Ingrid Hunnigan.
#1 has her of course in classic UnchartedPerils style: BOUND AND FUCKING GAGGED by a classic RE villain. #2 has her and Leon FUCK in HER OFFICE.
Anyways, that’s it. So sorry it took me so long to respond and thanks for offering this questionnaire, @ligercat.
@corvidaedaze @syrooo @awesomepintel-blog tagging y’all since yall are amongst my most loyal and beloving of Tumblr buddies. No pressure to answer this, this took forever for me 😅.

Fic title game: “would you consider...doing literally anything but that?”
Izuku accidentally befriends Shigaraki online via an MMO - he has no clue its Shigaraki, but the other works it out when Izuku apologises for being offline because of a villain attack at his school 3 days after the USJ incident.
Shigaraki tries to get Izuku to admit he hates villainous quirks and is only in it for the money, only for Izuku to come right back around and say the opposite consistently.
On the other end, Izuku is worried about his online friend with an abusive guardian falling into a crowd of possible villains, and tries to convince the other boy he's there to help if he ever needs it.
feat.
Shigaraki kidnapping Izuku at the training camp, with AFO telling him to come clean so he can see Izuku is just another shallow hero and hates him, only for Izuku to immediately become deeply concerned for Shigaraki when he realises "online friend in a bad situation with an abusive guardian" is the man in front of him and starts trying to be like "look i know you hate heroes but your sensei is a terrible terrible person and he's treating you like shit - i promise you can crash at my house while we look for another place for you to stay, its ok if you hate me but you really shouldn't have to live like this -"
Izuku is the only hero in the guild. The rest of the players are villains, but it wasn't intentional at all. Dabi, Gentle, La Brava, Genten, Chronos, Shigaraki, Spinner, Chimera, Twice and Magne all just accidentally joined the same guild. None of them are aware of the others, but they love their baby hero.
izuku is actually really good at MMOs but plays the weirdest builds. Like - healer!necromancer? izuku! why!. it's killing his guildmates.
dabi only plays ice elementalists. he has 3 different characters with the same build.
shouto also plays the same MMO and has run into Dabi multiple times, and is convinced he must also be a Todoroki.

Encanto Fanfic Recs
Tumblr media
I love making fanfic rec lists and I’m excited there’s enough on my Encanto list to start one. I will continue to add as I find more.
Tiles on a Roof by @avatarvyakara
Summery: A series of one-shots set among the family Madrigal.
Notes: love every single one of these. Very in character. Read everything he writes, you won’t regret it.
Rumble Thu Bellyful! by @cheetee
Summery: Everything is perfect between Mariano and Dolores. There's just one thing: every time their relationship comes up, it starts to rain. Why doesn't Pepa Madrigal seem to approve of her new future son-in-law? Fortunately, Mariano is determined to earn her trust. And he's found just the solution. There's definitely no way that this can go wrong.
Notes: THIS FIC!!! The characterization of every single character is absolutely spot on!! I laughed so much reading this, my heart melted and I can not wait to read it again! So so good!!
A Gift By Any Other Name by newfallenleaves
Summery: They’d all had such hope, when Mirabel did not receive a curse. But Casita does not take well to defiance. And she is not willing to give up her thralls so easily.
Notes: Encanto as a horror movie. Such a good, fun twist.
When the Cats Away by @cheetee
Summery: Tío Bruno is in charge, and he's banned Camilo and Mirabel from saving Encanto.
Heavy Blanket by between
Summery: The first time Camilo remembers seeing snow, he's three years old and his mamá won't come out of her room.
When It Rains, It Pours by by Wolfsong6913 & Word_Addict
Summery: Felix never used to like the way Pepa's weather was out of control whenever she was pregnant. He soon learned that it never lasted for as long as he'd like.
A Little Light To Make Us See by wolfsong6913
Summery: All is well, the Casita and their gifts are restored, and the Madrigals couldn't be happier. Most of them, anyway. Camilo, however is upset at how he and his family treated Mirabel for years. He can't forgive them, and he refuses to understand. The candle is going to make him.
Something Unexpected by @wikluk
Summery: Julieta has a small request for Antonio but she didn’t consider just how much influence Camilo has on his younger brother.
Notes: this is absolutely delightful and adorable.
Middle Child Syndrome by @atomic-bobo
Summery: Casita is rebuilt, the family is healing, a perfect happy ending. Except no one had fixed anything for Camilo, and when he gets sick, the family finds out just how badly they have been neglecting him.
Chimera by bexii
Summery: Camilo has a slight identity issue and though he tries to hide it at first, the whole family rally to support him. Family fluff with emotional issues.
Tail of the Frog by @cheetour
Summery: Mirabel has a secret, Bruno has an incurable cold, and Camilo and Antonio have a mystery to solve. Julieta... has too much to do.
Ugly Lips by @lariskapargitay
Notes: Absolutely heartbreaking. Please read trigger warning
I'll brick by brick rebuilt us (out of how's and why's not when's) by @acewithapaintbrush
Summery: Rebuilding a house doesn't fix everything. The Madrigal children have been struggling for a long time and they will keep struggling. But thankfully they now have a tio by their side who knows what it's like to feel the walls closing in on you.
Home Sweet Home by fichistory
Summery: The Casita has fallen and Mirabel has to process it.
To Summon A Goddess by @themorgtician
Summery: After centuries of searching, the last members of the Cult of Pachamama has finally found the vessel of their beloved goddess. It comes in the form of a weather-gifted redhead named Pepa Madrigal. Now that they’ve found her, nothing will stop them from completing their goals. Not even her family.
Dance With Me by @julietaswifey
Summery: Julieta and Agustín return home after a night out together. Drunk on wine and each other they try not to make too much noise, and of course they fail miserably
La Verdad de La Sangre by Elli_Lite
Summery: Camilo Madrigal thought that Mirabel only had a bad day. Make her laugh a little bit, give her space, and she was back to normal. It was easy to forget. Little did he know that her bad day would lead to a murder, two marriages, multiple children, and then a double homicide fifteen years in the making.
Notes: I read this then immediately reread. Just wow!! Warning this is a dark fic and touches on lots of subjects that may be uncomfortable so read the tags. But Isabela in this fic slays me. And the voice of Camilo is so perfect. I’m ready to reread this again just talking about it.
How Abuela Became an Abuela by @wifeofbean
Summery: Multi-chapter fic depicting the births of each Madrigal grandchild. (All chapters rated T except chapter 5.)
Notes: This fic!!! So many emotions. Also I declare every chapter as canon.
Beautiful by @wifeofbean
Summery: Luisa doesn't know who she is without her Gift; Agustin does his best to reassure her.
There’s rue for you by @wifeofbean
Summery: Julieta's knowledge of herbs extends beyond her magical Gift, and she helps where she's needed.
If I Seem Too Serene, Torture Me by @wifeofbean
Summery: NSFW. Julieta and Agustin drink together, have some fun, then have some more fun the next afternoon. Smut.
Notes: if it’s not obvious you should definitely read all of their fics cause ❤️❤️❤️
Birds of Paradise by @cheetour
Summery: With the mountain pass open, the outside world is now open to the Encanto. Isabela is wearing women's pants. The Madrigal uncles are starting a college fund. But when a mysterious scientist arrives in the Encanto, claiming to be in search of a rare bird, Mirabel can't shake the feeling that something terrible is going to happen.
The Waiting Game by @mm-so-this-is-love
Summery: While Casita is being rebuilt the Madrigal family moves in with generous villagers, but the lack of privacy starts to wear on Pepa who just wants some alone time with her husband.
Sunny side up by @patron-saints
Summery: pepa's anxieties about the new baby seem worse than normal, so julieta does what any good sister would do and makes her a midnight snack.
Protective Instinct by @sokkas-first-fangirl
Summery: Five times Pepa protected Bruno, one time she didn't and one time Bruno returned the favour
Thread by Thread, Side by Side by @inkquillery
Summery: Mirabel Madrigal ran away in the direct aftermath of Casita's fall, and during the three years she stayed away, here are the five times someone found the wayward Madrigal in Casita's kitchen with a first aid kit... Plus the one time everyone found her.
Dying (of embarrassment but someone beat me to it) by @kirrithian
Summery: After being mortally embarrassed, Mirabel is hiding under her bed in the casita. Julieta and Pepa share stories to help her feel better.
Cross your fingers by @thisstableground
Summery: It's not that Mirabel wants to push Bruno into spilling all of his secrets within five minutes of coming home, it's just that she does think that maybe, possibly it might be a good idea to mention to his sisters and his mother that he's been living in the walls before they dig his hideout out of the rubble, especially now that all of the kids already know.
Patching the Cracks by @cakebedamned
Summery: Sure, the Madrigal house can fracture under pressure, but it wouldn't hold together at all if not for the family's love for each other. It's so, so, far from perfect, but that doesn't make it unimportant.
Leap of Faith by @solibri
Summery: casita falls and the subsequent morning that ensues, from camilo's perspective
The Price of a Miracle by baletetree
Summery: Alma Madrigal knows she isn’t long for this world. The Miracle, now more powerful than ever, needs a new Guardian—one with strength of will and insight, one who can harness the magic and push it beyond its limits... one who can be the Miracle itself. If only there was a better way than thrusting that particular responsibility onto a young girl battling through the trenches of puberty and other woes of adolescence.
Someone to Snuggle with by @pensandpizza
Summery: You can't be Fun Tio Bruno all the time. When Bruno is left in a foul mood after a night plagued with sleep visions, the only member of the Madrigal family that can help is the gigantic, dangerous carnivore that lives a few doors down.

Notes: I love the way they write Mirabel and OMG I have never fallen in love with OCC characters faster (normally I’m not a big fan.)
Milhojas by Queer_Of_Clubs
Summery: The origin of Julieta and Agustín's relationship.
A Change of Life by @mm-so-this-is-love
Summer: Julieta and Pepa have taken to comparing notes on their change of life symptoms, but something seems off to Julieta.
Clear Skies Forever by @foreveranevilregal
Summery: Tired of feeling like she's hurting her family, Pepa does the unimaginable. But her family isn't ready to give up on her...

Riordanverse Fic Idea
Apollo returns to CHB and is all like “we’re getting the band back together!”
everyone’s like “wtf??? apollo just showed up at camp???” but he’s got a show planned
Apollo begins announcing that he and Chiron invited back some older campers to be temporary senior counselors because it occurred to them that the regular campers have no idea how to survive in the real world
In comes the legends themselves:
Percy Jackson
Annabeth Chase
Drew Tanaka
Clarisse La Rue
Travis Stoll
Katie Gardner
Jake Mason
Thalia Grace
Everyone’s like “ooh” and “aah” and “step on me drew” but Apollo silences them all and says “These people are gonna show you the most important stuff you’ll ever learn!”
Will goes “Like how to react when bitten by a Chimera?”
“Nope.”
Sherman raises his hand. “How to use an automatic grenade launcher without loosing fingers?”
“Nope.”
“Then what?” Lou Ellen raised an eyebrow
Travis steps forward with a shit eating grin. “I’m gonna show you losers how to balance a checkbook.”
Clarisse rolls up her sleeves. “And almost none of you kids know anything about physical therapy. You gotta stretch before you run!”
Thalia and Katie link arms. “We’ll show you how to identify poisonous non-magical plants.”
Drew crossed her own arms. “And how to sew clothing.”
“Also how to study properly.” Annabeth groans.
“And construction lessons!“ Jake smiles as well.
Percy cracks his knuckles. “And you better believe that I’m gonna show you kids how to make simple foods because the camp stuff spoils you all.”
And that is how Camp Half-Blood because just like any other summer camp, just with more swords.
