"By the way, your nose is bleeding."
"I hate to say it, but... should we make a wish?"
"[Name], one life spent with you is all that I could wish for."

Pairing: TK Strand/Carlos Reyes
Fandom: 9-1-1 Lone Star
(Requesting my mutuals to share their go-to tarlos fics :) Here are five wonderful pieces I’ve come across)
The Ring-In by ifyoustay, LolaLand
@welcometololaland
87K | Explicit | No Archive Warnings Apply
When TK receives a call from an old friend offering him a last minute invite to a wedding in Hawaii, he jumps at the chance to finally wrangle his fiancé into a vacation. Unfortunately, TK isn't the only old friend invited.
Or, the fic where we say "why should they have to wait for their honeymoon to go to Hawaii?" Featuring TK Strand and Carlos Reyes being disgustingly in love, some interesting headcanons, some indulgent scenes and Alex finally working out that he probably shouldn't have shacked up with the spin cycle instructor.
My Constant Companion by Child_Of_Wonderland
@child-of-wonderland
23.7K | Teen & Up Audiences | No Warnings Apply
Moving to Austin, in a way, made things easier than TK expected. Having a support system that never faltered, that didn't know the depths of it but still supported him, was something TK never knew he craved until he moved.
A simple case wasn't supposed to be enough to knock it all down. He wasn't meant to be faltering just days before reaching 2 years. He wasn't supposed to. And yet, here he was. (Written for: Lone Star Big Bang 2022)
Sanctuary by PhoenixWillRise
38K | Teen & Up Audiences | Rape/Non-Con
Carlos is on his way home from a long day. And as he goes down an unknown route, he encounters a stumbling man. Its 2am and freezing, he stops to offer aid and perhaps a ride somewhere but as he takes in the dazed, and confused looking green eyes of the mysterious man.The bruises on his wrists, and the red bites and hickies covering his neck and collar, the police officer believes there is more to this boy than meets the eye.
Siren Sounds by ElfinNevermore17
22.7K | Not Rated | Creator Chose No Warnings
TK had not had a good day to start with. It began with him and Carlos getting into a stupid fight before they both began their respective shifts this morning. Something about who should fill the dishwasher, or maybe it was whose turn it was to empty it? TK couldn’t fully remember what they had argued about, he just knew that they'd both left the condo angry with each other and hadn’t said their usual goodbyes or ‘I love you’s before separating at the door, Carlos into his car and TK into a waiting Uber. TK’d taken an Uber to work so that he didn’t have to share an angry car ride with Carlos, not wanting to stew any longer in such a tense silence.
TK wished with everything that he’d swallowed his pride and taken Carlos’ offer of a ride one last time. Perhaps then, the feelings of guilt wouldn’t be as strong as they were right now.
Time of death…
there ain’t no way to burn when the fire’s out by justapoet
@justapoet
22K | Teen & Up Audiences | Creator Chose No Warnings
It was heated, grey, and painful.
And Carlos didn't know how long it took for the ring in his ears to deafen until the point he could hear the dispatcher he had on the line, but he was almost sure she had said something about help being outside the house already.
"I need you to stay awake," she said, and Carlos turned his head to the side just to see the flames closer than it should be, the vivid orange being reflected by the dark walls and mixing with the red and blue lights coming somewhere from the outside. "Sir, are you listening?"
Or, TK and Carlos have a fight over Owen and his stupid actions, and Carlos is alone when the fire starts ― and even more when, for him it ends.

Hi Liv! I just want to let you know that your blog is the only thing getting me through grad school. It's my one moment of solace before going to sleep. Do you know any fics where Draco is some kind of hedonist and introduces Harry to all the luxuries he's been missing so far? I need that in my life!
Oh anon, I’m sorry grad school has been rough! I know I don’t miss those days 😔 very happy to hear the blog offers you comfort and solace. And I love the hedonist!Draco take, I wanna find more fics like that tbh! Here are some great reads that came to mind:
Still Life, orphaned (2019, M, 3k)
Cake by astolat (2016, M, 4.3k)
Harry tried not to care when after the war, everyone he knew seemed to have made an agreement to stop paying attention to birthdays.
Steal/Keep by @shealwaysreads (2021, E, 4.6k)
The stealing was all Hermione’s idea, though Harry still doesn’t think anyone would believe him if he told them.
push and pull you down by @bonesliketambourines (2020, E, 5k)
Harry's resigned himself to petty, inconsequential cases and no real connection to his job at the Auror department—after all, what else would he be doing with his time? He's not happy, not really, but that hardly matters. A chance encounter with a mostly-naked Draco Malfoy exposes him to an entirely different world, one much more colourful than the lonely one he currently occupies—but at what cost?
Reparatio by astolat (2016, E, 17k) - maybe not a perfect fit but I couldn’t resist, this fic is brilliant
Draco snorted. “I’m not reduced to penury. I want something considerably beyond money, and I rather think you’re the only one can give it to me.”
amid this warm and steady sweetness by warmfoothills (2019, E, 21k)
Harry is not living in a period drama, no matter what his friends or his new house or Malfoy’s sudden affinity for horse-riding might suggest, and if one more person uses the word courting, he’s going to start hexing people.
A Summer in Bordeaux by @zigster-ao3 (2021, E, 28k)
Harry turns. Malfoy leans against the doorway to the back garden under the halo of a gaslamp dangling overhead. The warm glow of the flame casts him in a golden light, and he’s framed on either side by trailing grapevines cascading over the garden walls. So soft, Harry thinks, where the Malfoy in his mind once seemed so sharp.
Shine, Even in the Darkness by raitala (2014, E, 41k)
Harry hasn’t seen Draco for over fifteen years, but now he’s showing up everywhere and Harry is sort of weirdly attracted to him, but that can’t be right?
Sweeten to Taste by @saintgarbanzo (2021, E, 51k)
It starts with Draco's buckwheat crepes with honeyed oranges. Or maybe it starts with his porridge with toasted walnuts and homemade apple butter. Or perhaps it starts with the cinnamon buns Draco made from scratch with mascarpone icing. Harry just knows he's hungry for more.
Against All Odds by momatu (2015, E, 54k)
Beauxbatons is hosting the first ever Quidditch Summer School for children from all over Europe, and Harry has promised to enroll Teddy as his birthday present. Meanwhile, Draco is stuck in his office, putting together the first ever Quidditch Summer School for children from all over Europe during, when he should be enjoying summer holidays.
Nights With You by @the-sinking-ship (2022, E, 58k)
Draco is mortified when moments prior to departing for the most anticipated destination wedding of the year, he is cruelly dumped. But when he learns that Harry Potter has, at long last, split with his horrible boyfriend, Draco is certain his luck has changed. Never a man to squander an opportunity for revenge (and what would probably be a spectacular shag), Draco vows to make Potter his for the weekend.
Criminal by @the-sinking-ship (2020, E, 83k)
Things were going just fine for Draco Malfoy. He successfully conned and counted cards across Europe and America, amassing a small fortune, along with a lengthy rap sheet. That was until he made the grave mistake of returning to England for a high stakes card game and got himself caught – by Harry Potter no less.

Guardianes de la Galaxia Vol.3 | Un Conmovedor Cierre
Por: Hector Gaytan. 14 de mayo de 2023.
Sin Spoilers.
Seis años después de su segunda entrega y tras un controversial despido, James Gunn cierra su trilogía de los Guardianes de la Galaxia antes de encaminarse a dirigir el reinicio del universo DC. La más que recomendada cinta nos sitúa tiempo después de Avengers: Endagme (2019) y The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special (2022), donde el equipo de inadaptados galácticos deberá cruzar la galaxia en una última aventura para salvar al universo y a uno de los suyos, mientras aprenden a dejar el pasado atrás.
Sin dudas James Gunn se despide de Marvel en grande con una enternecedora película que se aleja de la obligación de estar conectada a otras para construir un gran evento, como la tercera cinta de Ant-Man. Desde el detonante uno se da cuenta de que esta película le pertenece únicamente a los guardianes, brincamos de un conflicto en el multiverso a algo más íntimo. Los personajes que llevamos 9 años conociendo tienen un cierre que brilla por el cariño y el estilo con el que se desarrolla.
Marvel Studios hizo lo que debió haber hecho desde el fin de la fase 3, darle la libertad a los directores de enfocarse en sus historias y no en exclusivamente construir su nuevo gran evento. La cinta toma riesgos al tocar temas sensibles y en romper las expectativas a las que la trilogía nos tenía acostumbrados. El viaje acompañado de los ex-criminales es disfrutable y crudo al mismo tiempo.
En lo negativo, para algunos espectadores los guardianes pueden parecer más caricaturizados y extravagantes que de costumbre, razón no les falta. La película brinca de un tono dramático a uno cómico sin paciencia o sutileza, el cambio abrupto a la comedia rompe la tensión que Gunn intenta impregnar y el misterio rompe una muy extravagante e irreverente comedia. Los chistes no siempre se sienten frescos, al contrario, se sienten fuera de lugar, a excepción de dos escenas a mitad del filme en las que un anti humor ejecutado con base en las personalidades y traumas de los protagonistas hizo reír a toda la sala.
La interacción entre los personajes se vuelve demasiado cursi, lo cual generalmente funciona con la historia, pero a veces termina cayendo en lo incómodo. Las actuaciones se vuelven demasiado frenéticas, como si los personajes se hubiesen tomado 5 tazas de café y tuvieran que hablar o moverse de forma extravagante cada vez que pueden; el ritmo se siente lento, hasta el punto medio de la cinta parece que el guión no sabe cómo resolver el conflicto que plantea o como seguir la historia.
Sobre la selección musical tan característica de la saga, he de decir que de las 3 películas esta es la que más me ha quedado a deber. Pues, aunque esta incluye canciones de Radiohead o Do You Realize?? de The Flaming Lips la mayoría se sienten a priori desaprovechadas o que no encajan en las escenas en las que están colocadas y se sienten más como un relleno en la mezcla sonora, no hay armonía entre la imagen y el sonido. Como si estas hubiesen sido escogidas luego de terminar el guión, en lugar de que las escenas fueran escritas con base al ritmo de las melodías, a excepción de The Dog Days Are Over y No Sleep Till Brooklyn.
Además, el compositor de la banda sonora original de las dos primeras cintas -Tyler Bates- no regresó para el volumen 3 por su compromiso con la 4 parte de John Wick y la ausencia de su ambientación se nota. John Murphy (The Suicide Squad) y Kevin Kinner (Peacemaker) hacen lo posible por recuperar la esencia orquestal de los guardianes, pero las composiciones se sienten incapaces de evocar a otra emoción que no sea una bélica tensión que con el pasar del filme se siente sosa.
Aunque en los efectos especiales y prácticos el cierre de la trilogía se lleva las palmas, si bien sí hay ciertos errores que distinguen que Groot y Rocket son hechos por computadora, esta es la película de Disney/Marvel que mejor se ve en años. Gunn optó una mezcla casi perfecta de CGI y efectos prácticos, al punto que se le acaba de otorgar un récord Guinness por la mayor cantidad de aplicaciones de maquillaje/prostéticos creados para una única producción.
La fotografía de Henry Braham junto con la dirección de arte destaca tanto como en las primeras dos cintas, añadiendo una capa extra de extravagancia que es capaz de preocupar al espectador, sorprender y provocar risas y lágrimas.
El estilo de Gunn ya no es tan diferente e innovador como lo fue en su época, ya que todo Marvel y hasta otras productoras, se dedicaron a copiarlo, pero sigue sintiéndose carismático. El final es maravilloso, una despedida de Gunn a sus personajes que se que quedará en el corazón de los espectadores, es un final que revertirá toda expectativa de la publicidad y de los seguidores de la filmografía del director. Sí, puede resultar menos “impactante” de lo esperado, pero sin duda es emocional y hará a todos sacar una lágrima.
La película se siente más informal, menos de estudio, factor que le juega tanto a favor como en contra. No es la mejor de las 3, ese puesto sigue perteneciendo al volumen 1. Sin embargo, es una experiencia disfrutable que vale la pena ser vivida, una película de superhéroes que tocará en lo más profundo de cualquier espectador. La trilogía de guardianes se consagra como la más única del UCM, la que marcó un estilo en Hollywood que todos intentan copiar. Se entiende por qué nadie quiso el puesto de Gunn, el ADN de los guardianes está en su mente y en su alma, el nuevo universo de DC está en buenas manos. La película es un bello parque de diversiones que recuerda que en Marvel Studios deben dejar de expandir su universo y deben profundizar en él.

Hello! I just found you and your clothes are amazing!
Out of curiosity, I’ve noticed some circle specific patterns used for the skater and midi, but I don’t think I’ve seen any maxi circle skirts… do you think you’d ever make some, or even just the circle specific patterned ones, or is it a matter of being just too much fabric?
Hi! Thank you & thanks for being here!!
So this explanation is gonna require a bit of a 🌟Journey Through Time🌟! Get ready for a long answer. (Short version: maxis are just really new)
I ended up thinking about this a lot, because I couldn't even remember my own timeline fully, but here it is:
Made my first skaters - 2015
Joggers, all-over-print tshirts - early 2018
Skirts gained pockets!, first midi - late 2018
Finally made more midis, first solid color skirt - 2020
First gradients introduced - early 2022
Maxis - spring 2022
Skaters go so far back that when I first started selling them it was at con tables that looked like this:
If you ever saw me at a con back in this era, you a real one
So for "circle specific patterns" if you mean one's like the Ouija Board or Demon/Angel Summoning, they were first introduced back when I only had skaters.
In 2020, I finally started to make more midis (only one I had for quite a while was Polkat Dot). Midis quickly became much more popular than skaters, so in 2021 I focused on adding more midi designs (and solid colors which were also more popular than my older designs).
2021 also was my first BIG hit design with the Spider Lily Midis. Which at the time was only on midis & then a variant on joggers.
So, 2022! I knew going in that Maxis would be introduced in the spring. I just had two at first, and they're both not exactly circle designs. Emergence is kinda a combo of a repeating pattern and a circle design, Queen of the Night is just a large motif.
My next chance to add more maxi options was during spring preorders. I didn't have enough time to make straight up new designs, so I needed to pick from existing designs and modify them to fit onto maxis. I went with designs that had already proven popular and wouldn't take a long time to rework for maxis (Spider Lily, Apathy & Spring Fever Gradients, Solid Black, Creepy Eyes, Polkat Dot). Out of all of these, Spider Lily is really the only one that's a "circle design".
After that, in 2022 I had plans for a summer collection, and for a bunch of reasons (including that it was summer, so shorter skirts would be more in demand) I didn't include maxis in that set. The two circle designs in that collection are Jealous Flame & Poisoned Apple. Jealous Flame was very well recieved & I think it'd work well on a maxi, so I'll very likely make that available later this year.
Shortly after that collection went up, a lot of things happened and a lot of things changed. I ended up running fall preorders with less new designs than I'd originally intended. One was another hybrid repeating pattern + circle design maxi, a variant on my Blue Rose midi design.
That pretty much brings us up to date! There are a lot of designs I haven't turned into maxis yet just because there hasn't been enough time. Ones you can expect this year include the Agony gradient, Jealous Flame, maybe Red Rose, and then a number of new not yet revealed designs. The majority of my existing "circle designs" are still only on skaters, are pretty old (most are circa. 2017), and they're not very popular compared to newer designs. I'm not sure if I'll go back and make them work on midis/maxis because I think at this point I'd rather redo them (plans are in place to redo my Demon Summoning design, as an example) or just make completely new designs. I have so many ideas and relatively so little time (and funds), so I have to be very selective about what designs I release, what designs I retire, and what I put on which type of clothing.
I'm sure this is wayyyy more answer than you bargained for, haha. But I hope it was interesting to hear some history! This has also reminded me that I really want to put together a timeline/design graveyard page on Witch Vamp. Little do many of you know that before Witch Vamp was Witch Vamp, things started off with skirts like this:

At the Stake Waiting For the Fire
I took this selfie while I was in a conversation with a so-called Illuminati recruiter about fulfilling my ultimate dream of burning at the stake naked in the fall/winter of 2022.
The recruiter told me that the Illuminati would fulfil my dream, of course she wanted a significant amount of money and “donations” before they would arrange to burn me at the stake.
Sensing a scam and a con in the works I declined to send the Illuminati any more money.
Even then the recruiter told me that the planning for my burning was in the works and that “The Burning Must Happen” whether I “donated” or not. She also told me that 2023 was the year I would burn.
I was truly looking forward to burning at the stake totally naked so I went to a forest clearing, stripped naked, wrapped my self around a tree and took this selfie. I was envisioning the Illuminati burning me at the stake!
This is the same clearing where I had done a simulated stake burning in the winter of 2006. In 2006 I did build a fire behind me and had flames licking my bare bum!
Like the Illuminati recruiter said, I believed that “The Burning Must Happen”!

Nauseous
@whumpers-monthly
Fandom: The Witcher
Whumpee: Cahir
Whumper: Emhyr var Emreis
Exerpt from chapter 6 of ‘Prison Blues’ - Warning: Maggots
"Splendid. Then let's make a deal. You eat this one bowl of food right in front of my eyes to show you respect my orders. And, as a reward, I'll have better food sent to you in the future." Smiling a self-satisfied smile at his ingeniously benevolent proposal, he motions to one of the guards to bring the usual rancid, alive-with-maggots goo and bread that is supposed to be food.
As always, Cahir's stomach starts to turn just at the sight and smell. However, with the Emperor looking and the ever looming threat of being turned over to the torture master once again if he does not comply, he fights down the rising bile and takes a deep, steadying breath through his half-open mouth to avoid the worst of the stench. It is only food, not an instrument of torture. It cannot truly hurt him, even if it is utterly disgusting. Moreover, having to eat maggots can hardly be more humiliating than having to strip before the Emperor, can it? And he has done that. He is still naked on the floor. He only has to keep it down as long as the White Flame is watching, too. He can do this. He must. Still, his eyes well up with tears of shame as he brings the maggoty piece of bread to his mouth. He gags reflexively and quickly closes his eyes. Maybe it won't be as bad if he cannot see the wriggling white grubworms? But he can feel them moving in his mouth when he has taken the first bite. Which is decidedly worse. Valiantly suppressing the strong urge to hurl and spit it all out, he chews quickly and tries to swallow. However, it does not work. The bread is too dry, as is his mouth. And he is still missing a tongue to help with the swallowing. Cahir coughs and gags again. Desperate, he opens his eyes to look for the bowl with water.
"Here, take a sip. You are doing good. And I am here to help." The Emperor passes him the bowl with the tepid water, smiling down at the prisoner encouragingly. Gingerly Cahir gulps down some of the liquid and with it the bread that is in his mouth. And the maggots. They still feel alive as they go down his gullet with the rest of the food. No, don't think about it. Just do it again. Some more mouths full, a few more horrible minutes, and then it will be over. He takes another bite of the bread.
When Cahir has finally managed to eat up, his face is glistening with cold sweat and looking almost green. He is shaking and feels like he has to vomit any second now, but he cannot let that happen. This whole ordeal will be for nought if he does while the Emperor is still here.
"See, it isn't so difficult to follow my orders." Emhyr pats Cahir on the naked shoulder approvingly. "And it will be worth while, you'll see tomorrow. As I promised." He turns toward the door. "And, Cahir, you need to exercise. Regularly. The guards will make sure you do. I need you fighting-fit when the time comes."
The door closes behind the White Flame. Finally. And not a second too early. Cahir just manages to reach the bucket before his stomach convulses violently and he retches everything up again. Bits of bread and goo and maggots and all.
Prison Blues
Published: 2022-06-04; Completed: 2022-08-03
Words: 32,672; Chapters: 14/14
Summary: While sitting around the campfire with his companions, Jaskier sings one of his favourite songs. Which elicits a very unexpected reaction from one of the more recent additions to the company. Jaskier can be such an idiot once in a while. The good thing is - he knows and is ready to apologise. However, things are much worse than he anticipated and a quick sorry nowhere near enough.

Favorite 2022 First-Watches 🎬
this year, i've only managed to watch 173 films according to my letterboxd logs - that's already including rewatches. 2022 certainly fucked me in many ways i couldn't even imagine at the first place, which is part of the reason why i couldn't spare more time to watch more. 🥲
regardless, it's suffice to say that i've managed to broaden my horizon for a bit, discovering and finding unique films from many corners of the world, unrestrained by release dates or its mood and nature - highbrow, classy, unhinged, you name it; some of them eventually latched onto my mind and soul ❤
now i wouldn't be ranking these films in a particular order, but i will start with the ones that completely won me over and went straight into my all-time favorites!
these are the films i'd probably rate a perfect 10 if i had used the traditional metric score, but i don't review movies that way anymore 👇
Mikey and Nicky (1976), dir. Elaine May 🇺🇸
John Cassavetes and Peter Falk were best friends in real life - and simultaneously two of the best actors of their generation, so there's no doubt they were enthralling to watch in here. indeed, the film's power lies on their dynamite improvisational chops that chronicled the breakdown of their relationship over a night, fights and conversations filled up with intense emotions coupled together with May's minimal direction helped this film shined through and through. i'm definitely a sucker for character-driven movies, so hurrah 🙌
Love Letter (1995) dir. Shunji Iwai 🇯🇵
coincidences and memories of a deceased one can lead you to unexpected findings you took for granted at first, changing how you view that particular person in a different light. perhaps the 'contrived coincidence' trope has been done to death in every type of media imaginable - but due to the naturally-progressing plot that always keeps you interested and Shunji Iwai's directing, it feels very much fresh, not generic, and hits all the beats it's supposed to! Love Letter is blissful and warm, yet it's also a terribly sad tale about a love story that's almost meant to be. 💔
The Devils (1971) dir. Ken Russell 🇬🇧
god, if it isn't an over-indulgent picture (in a good way). to be more exact, it's about overzealous hypocrites indulging themselves in shameless immorality, shielding behind the tenets of Christianity to justify their actions. and they all went down in glorious flames, as depicted mercilessly by Ken Russell with the incredibly eye-catching set designs by Derek Jarman. while it's set in the Middle Ages when those deemed dark witches were guaranteed death sentences, I still think it functions effectively as a critique of the current state of 'religious' conservatives who are so blinded with hate for anyone but themselves. it's a lot of fun to watch, too, even if it does seem too cartoonish at times. (Oliver Reed, sexy and marvelous 💪)
A Snake of June (2002) dir. Shinya Tsukamoto 🇯🇵
Shinya Tsukamoto's films are basically when you combine Lynch's affinity for industrial-themed surrealness and Cronenberg's exploration of the human body transformation, only for their presentation and energy to be cranked up to 11. out of many Tsukamotos i've watched this year, A Snake of June fascinated me the most. i think this is when Tsukamoto's themes and trademarks really worked for me, because they synergize so much this time around; it's relentless in its exploration of self-destructive eroticism, creating a haunting yet sexually-charged atmosphere. it also left quite a lot to be analyzed due to its ambiguous nature (especially toward the end). endlessly rewatchable 👍
On the Silver Globe (1988) dir. Andrzej Zulawski 🇵🇱
a bit unfair to include this since it technically is an unfinished film, but this certainly was one of the most intense movies i've seen in a long time. the bleakness of the material is the foundation of the cinematic earthquake that would've been had it been completed, added with colorful costumes and dystopic set designs that contributes to the mystiqueness of the picture. the most prominent aspect, of course, is Zulawski's direction - while it may seem exhausting and annoying for some, in my honest opinion it certainly worked the way it's heading for. if i had to remake an existing film, it would be this one.
other films that i adore during my first watch this year include:
Blue (2002) dir. Hiroshi Ando 🇯🇵
Dogra Magra (1987) dir. Toshio Matsumoto 🇯🇵
Ashik Kerib (1988) dir. Sergei Parajanov 🇬🇪
The Wolf House (2018) dir. Joaquin Cociña & Cristóbal León 🇨🇱
Four Nights of a Dreamer (1971) dir. Robert Bresson 🇫🇷
there are so many other movies i like & love which unfortunately couldn't make it to my mentions on this post. movies are abundant and it's impossible to watch every single one of them in a lifetime, but finding those that resonate with you is a very personal and treasuring experience!
thank you 2022, here's hoping to watching more next year 🥂

For the fanfic ask game: 18, 21, 22, 40 and 66
Thanks for the ask :D
18. Do you title your fics before, during, or after the writing process? How do you come up with titles?
Definitely after. I’m not the best with titles tbh so sometimes I just come up with something random.
But some fics/chapter titles I try to title them like they’re an episode of DB.
For example “Ghosts From the Past” is a reference to Z episode 164 “Ghosts From Tomorrow” :)
21. Would you ever collaborate with another writer for a story?
Absolutely! I’ve always wanted to do that :)
22. Are there certain types of writing you won’t do?
Angst with no happy ending
Non-con/dub-con
Cheating
I’m pretty flexible with what I could and couldn’t write but these three are automatic no under any circumstances for me, plus there’s some ships I’ll never write either
40. If someone were to make a fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you like to see?
Oh god, getting any literally fanart of my fics would make my whole year I can’t even imagine. But if I had to pick basically anything with MarTen kissing or hugging or just being touchy cause there’s not enough of that lol
66. How do you deal with writing pressure (ie. pressure to update, negative comments, deadlines, etc.)?
For pressure to update it doesn’t really effect me because those people never comment once I update anyway.
For negative comments, really depends. I’d it’s flames I just try to ignore it but it may hurt my feelings, but for just general criticism I will try to look into it and see if I can improve. Sometimes I just won’t agree with what they don’t like and move on
Writing deadlines I’m not great with tbh because I’ve given myself multiple in 2022 and none of them were accomplished lol

The United States can't push nations into a corner anymore, especially nuclear powers. China and Russia will do as they please and If the United States want to do something about it,it better be ready to fight in the fields and in the streets.
The post is machine translated
Translation at the bottom
The collective is on telegram
⚠️ WANG YI AD ANTONY BLINKEN: "NON ACCETTEREMO MAI IL DITO PUNTATO DEGLI STATI UNITI O PERSINO LA COERCIZIONE CONTRO LE RELAZIONI TRA CINA E RUSSIA" ⚠️
🇨🇳 Ieri, 19 febbraio, Wang Yi - Direttore dell'Ufficio Generale della Commissione Centrale per gli Affari Esteri del Partito Comunista Cinese - ha affermato, durante un incontro a Monaco con Antony Blinken - Segretario di Stato USA - che il Governo Cinese non accetterà mai i tentativi da parte degli Stati Uniti di minacciare le Relazioni Sino-Russe:
💬 "Il Partenariato Strategico Globale di Coordinamento tra Cina e Russia è costruito sulla base del non-allineamento, del non-confronto e del non prendere di mira paesi terzi, e si inserisce all'interno dei Diritti Sovrani di due Paesi Indipendenti. Non accetteremo mai il dito puntato degli Stati Uniti o persino la coercizione contro le relazioni tra Cina e Russia" ⭐️
⚔️ Dopodiché, trattando la questione della Crisi in Ucraina, il Diplomatico del Partito Comunista Cinese ha dichiarato:
💬 "Gli Stati Uniti, in quanto paese importante, dovrebbero lavorare per una soluzione politica della Crisi invece di soffiare sul fuoco o trarre profitto dalla situazione" 🔥
⭐️ Alla Conferenza sulla Sicurezza di Monaco, Wang Yi ha limpidamente affermato che la mentalità della Guerra Fredda è tornata, che non vi è più fiducia tra i principali paesi del Mondo e che la Cina reprimerà qualsiasi interferenza esterna nella risoluzione della Questione di Taiwan, ma ha anche dichiarato che la Repubblica Popolare Cinese fornirà una soluzione politica al Conflitto Russo-Ucraino ⚔️
🇷🇺 Il 21/12/2022 si verificò una visita di Dmitrij Anatol'evič Medvedev - Vice-Presidente del Consiglio di Sicurezza della Federazione Russa - a Pechino, per incontrare Xi Jinping 🚩
⚔️ Oltre a trattare il Tema delle Relazioni Sino-Russe e i Principi del 20° Congresso Nazionale del Partito Comunista Cinese, durante l'incontro venne affrontato il Tema del Conflitto Russo-Ucraino 🤔
🇷🇺 Dmitrij Anatol'evič Medvedev affermò che la Federazione Russa era disposta alla risoluzione della Crisi in Ucraina attraverso colloqui di pace e negoziati. La Cina, essenzialmente, afferma ciò che la Russia, per una ragione o per l'altra, non può dire, ed è estremamente probabile - dato l'elevato livello di cooperazione politica, economica e militare tra i due paesi - che la Soluzione Politica della Cina sia stata concordata con il Governo della Federazione Russa 🤔

⚠️ WANG YI TO ANTONY BLINKEN: "WE WILL NEVER ACCEPT US FINGER POINTING OR EVEN COERCION AGAINST CHINA-RUSSIA RELATIONS" ⚠️
🇨🇳 Yesterday, February 19, Wang Yi - Director of the General Office of the Central Commission for Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China - stated, during a meeting in Munich with Antony Blinken - US Secretary of State - that the Chinese Government will not accept never attempts by the US to threaten Sino-Russian relations:
💬 "The China-Russia Comprehensive Strategic Coordinating Partnership is built on the basis of non-alignment, non-confrontation and non-targeting of third countries, and fits within the Sovereign Rights of two Independent Countries. We will not accept never US finger pointing or even coercion against China-Russia relations" ⭐️
⚔️ After that, addressing the issue of the crisis in Ukraine, the diplomat of the Communist Party of China said:
💬 "The United States, as an important country, should work towards a political solution to the Crisis instead of fanning the flames or profiting from the situation" 🔥
⭐️ At the Munich Security Conference, Wang Yi clearly stated that the Cold War mentality has returned, that there is no longer trust among the world's major countries, and that China will crack down on any outside interference in resolving the Taiwan question, but he also stated that the People's Republic of China will provide a political solution to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict ⚔️
🇷🇺 On 12/21/2022 (21/12/22)there was a visit by Dmitrij Anatol'evič Medvedev - Vice-President of the Security Council of the Russian Federation - to Beijing, to meet Xi Jinping 🚩
⚔️ In addition to discussing the Topic of Sino-Russian Relations and the Principles of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Topic of the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict was addressed during the meeting 🤔
🇷🇺 Dmitrij Anatol'evič Medvedev stated that the Russian Federation was willing to resolve the crisis in Ukraine through peace talks and negotiations. China essentially says what Russia, for one reason or another, cannot say, and it is extremely likely - given the high level of political, economic and military cooperation between the two countries - that the Political Solution of China has been agreed with the Government of the Russian Federation 🤔

As always, I make a little list at the end of the year to document the interesting things (be them good or bad) that had happened in the year.
Well, here’s 2022.
-My gf got to spend more time with me than originally intended for her holiday! :D
-I caught covid right after she left, I think someone at work gave it to me
-Most of January and February are complete blurs, I legit cannot remember them like I can the rest of the year
-Around the World in 80 Days premiered in the states and I haven’t been the same since (also, my gf got to watch a few episodes with me! Hooray! She watched me make a silly fool outta myself while looking at my favorite pathetic blorbo, Phileas Fogg)
-I went to the zoo for my birthday with my siblings, it was a lot of fun
-I fucked up my foot in April and have no idea how I did it, so now it’s a strange, horrible pain that comes and goes. My cane from when I snapped my other foot in half two years ago is still in use because of this.
-Got the fucking official Good Omens 2 poster!
-Went to a convention for the first time in years, along with a trip to Seattle and hung out with my aunt and cousin.
-Met amazing actors at the con. I met Christopher Eccleston, Billie Piper, Con O’Neil, and Harvey Guillen (who were all very lovely and all loved my birth name)
-Had to call 911 for the first time in my life and I hated every second of it :)
-Lived on my own for a full year, which was trippy
-Created a bunch of ships on my sideblog (this only appeals to me and the people who like my nonsense, but I’m rather proud of said nonsense)
-Was very productive in terms of art this year, wow, that was not expected
-Got two new kitties
-I watched the building across the street from my apartment go up in flames and the insides cave in. This was on Valentine’s Day. I still have photos on my phone of what I saw.
I dunno what to expect in the new year, I just hope to go to the con again for my birthday and meet David Tennant, along with finally seeing Good Omens 2, the new Doctor Who specials, and to hopefully see my amazing gf again irl
Oh, and, like, hopefully better health because I’m leaving this year with the fucking flu. Delightful.
