Top 10 vs. Personal Top 10

Thank you for the tags, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe and @facewithoutheart. This is bound to be fun and difficult. How do you choose between your children? Well, I'm going to try.

AO3's Top Ten

Oh, Have You Seen The Fairies Dance

Back To Start

Playing With Fire, Treading Thin Ice

A Fucked-Up Cinderella Story

A Real Doll

A Tale of Two Tails

Careful What You Wish For

The Watford Games

Gates of Ivory and Horn

More Than This

Some of these are high scored because they're older, and some because they were just popular in comparison. There's a lot of overlap between this list and my favorites, but there are some differences.

One thing I notice is that the fics that were 'gift fics' where they were written to a specific prompt, or Carry on Reverse Bang fics, written to art that was made before the fic, didn't make my top ten, probably because it feels like the creativity that built them wasn't wholly mine. I still love those fics, but just not quite as much.

Also, other than Raising Dragons, I didn't include WIPs, though they may become favorites when they are done. I'm especially fond of Saving Simon Snow, my forced marriage fic, which I think is getting close to finished. I'll probably start posting that one by April!

And the experience of writing was a huge factor in my choices below. Getting to collaborate with lovely people, or finding myself as a writer features in all or most of my favorites.

Here is my list of faves:

A Fucked-Up Cinderella Story. Ok, the butt plug joke is my favorite joke of anything I've written, Ok? Not to mention, this is the Erotic Gropefest collaboration where I first met and worked with my dear friend Fristi and learned what a joy it is to collaborate with a brilliant artist.

Back To Start: I've called this fic my baby, and it is. It's the first fic I wrote where I really felt like a competent writer, and you don't forget that feeling. I used a whole lot of my life experience in writing Baz as a baby and child too, so it's especially dear to me.

Careful What You Wish For: This was my second collaboration, and @ivelovedhimthroughworse Apricot is the sweetest, most supportive partner anyone could ask for. And this fic is my favorite type to read: angsty, science-y, plot heavy with loving smut.

The Watford Games: This was the first plot driven fic I ever wrote, and I'm proud of what I accomplished with it. And it's also another type of fic I love to read: AUs that put Simon and Baz in place of well-known characters.

The Blue and The Gray: Written for COTTA, this fic didn't make the AO3 top ten, and I think that's because the American Civil War is probably of lesser interest to non-Americans. But I love it, and I think it was the first fic that made me feel like a writer. You don't forget that.

Raising Dragons: Even though this is unfinished, I've had so much fun writing pregnancy and childhood shenanigans in the SnowBaz universe. Not to mention getting to work with Fristi again!

A Real Doll was from the Monster Under the Bed fest, my first non-COTTA fest. This is the first smut fic I ever wrote solely for the purpose of smut, and I think it turned out pretty decent! (Also was the first fic that got a comment from Aralias, which meant a lot to me).

New Year, New Me: This one again didn't make the AO3 top ten, most likely because of the mpreg tag. But it is the exception to the 'gift fic curse', because again, I got to put so much of myself into it. The song @moodandmist and @cutestkilla wrote for it helps elevate this one for me too!

Double Your Pleasure, Double Your Fun: I'll be honest here. I'll read PWP for the usual reasons, but it's always been one of my least favorite categories. I like plot in my fics. But this idea of Baz and Simon having a foursome with their own clones came to me and wouldn't let me go. And the fact that I got to work with Ashton, @artsyunderstudy? That is absolutely the reason this makes my top ten.

The White Chapel: This one is very new and will likely score higher as I get some distance from it. But as an adaptation of my all time favorite movie, Xanadu, it was a pleasure to write from start to finish (and it's also an exception from the gift fic curse, I'm now realizing--but it wasn't written to a prompt and I think that makes the difference).

Probably everyone has done this, so I tag all the folks mentioned above, plus a few others, just in case. @carryonsimoncarryonbaz, @annabellelux, @krisrix, @nightimedreamersghost, @otherworldsivelivedin, @prettylightsbigcity, and @whatevertheweather, I'd love to know what your top tens are!

[white-pikmin]

[[Lil explanation for the White Pikmin I'm playing underneath the cut ↓]]

[[Hey! This blog started as a fun thing to do in my free time and I accidentally gave the pikmin a full character. So meet White Lotus the White Pikmin. Otherwise just called Lotus.

As of late April 2024 this will be a ask/art blog.]]

Some qualities ↓

-They're usually quite friendly but can be a bit temperamental. (Normally when threatened/having a friend threatened or annoyed/insulted.)

-Uses they/them and it/its pronouns.

-Part of the pikmin squad @blue-captain-frankie commands but prefers to stay in the cave they were originally sprouted when it's night time.

-They have a bit of a addiction to spicy berries (They are now clean though, don't worry.)

-Can never seem to get their little paws on some nectar

-Have a suspicious amount of knowledge on poisons and deadly elements and chemicals.

-They have a few friends but the most noteworthy are probably the Echo Wraith and their lil crush the Smoky Progg.

-They like swear words. (Are usually pretty creative when insulting someone too.)

-Favorite most precious shiny is a bottle cap with the brand name Fristi on it. (It was gifted to Smoky Progg as a kind of courtship ritual since I headcanon that pikmin give each other their favorite or most precious valuable object/treasure as like a romance request lmao.)

-Can use acid spit, but forgets it exists 99% of the time.

-Their X-ray vision is worse but their poison immunity is stronger.

That's mostly it! Hope you enjoy the blog.

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 #Repost @theblackinstitute ・・・ We are thrilled to announce Miriam Aristy-Farer as our CANNABALL NYC Industry Award recipient. LINK IN BIO A purpose-driven, curious blend of design, advocacy, and gardening, Miriam Aristy-Farer was Born in Washington Heights and raised in Queens. Her family returned to their native Dominican Republic when she was 17, where she attended for 3 years The Parsons School of Design, Altos de Chavon campus. Returning to NYC in the early 90’s she furthered her studies in communication design at Parsons. Out of college, her professional life began, designing for the music industry and quickly moving into the cosmetics industry. After 15 years, as a successful senior art director in the cosmetics industry in NYC, she took a leave from corporate beauty and launched Fristys LLC in 2009, a branding collective with a mission of giving back. She focused her volunteer efforts on public education equity and even launched NPO, Friends of PS 153 with 3 other parents at her son's school in Northern Manhattan. 2 Manhattan Borough Presidents appointed her to the Community Education Council for District 6, where she served as president representing 24 elementary schools both in the city and state on all policy items. She became well-versed in navigating government, city & state policy & urban gardening while working with the local school districts on equity & green initiatives. In the process, she fell in love with plants and with family in Colorado, and a curiosity about cannabis began. That newfound love of plants helped her to launch, Herbas®, a plant-based body care in 2016. Miriam continues to sit on CB9, on the youth & education committee & is currently co-chairing the cannabis task force after having co-chaired the health & environment committee for 2 years. She has served on the board of directors at Riverstone Senior Center in Washington Heights and serves as Vice President of NYSER (New Yorkers for Students Educational Rights). her brand was recently accepted into the inaugural cohort for mentorship and compliance under the OCM. #cannabis #cannabisindustry #fundraiser #womenempowerment #entrepreneur #womenentrepreneurs (at NEW YORK PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoV0KDTsi5M/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hey, I'm finally caught up enough to post on Wednesday again! Thank you to @you-remind-me-of-the-babe, @confused-bi-queer, @stardustasincocaine, @wetheformidables, @erzbethluna, @artsyunderstudy, @ionlydrinkhotwater and @facewithoutheart for tagging me!

Snippet from Raising Dragons:

Ok, Ok, I know I've been teasing this fic forever. But I've got news! Fristi and I have agreed to start posting it as soon as my COBB is fully posted (so in about a week), so your wait is nearly over. To tide you over, here's a new snippet from Chapter two (see if you remember the art I'm referencing here 😉)

“Ouch!”

I roll my eyes in exasperated fondness. You’d think that, after two years, my husband would know how to judge the height of the doorway. You’d think so, but you’d be wrong. 

I turn to grin at Simon. He’s rubbing his forehead and glaring at the door lintel like it’s personally offended him. 

“You know, someday—” I begin. Simon cuts me off. 

“I know, I know. Someday I’ll watch where I’m going. I’m just too big for this flat,” he grumbles. 

“I think we’ve all outgrown this flat,” I muse. I scan around our living room. Baby paraphernalia is everywhere. The single crib that we’re using for all three babies (because three cribs would NOT fit in our living room) is under the window, which causes some interesting issues to arise since we’re keeping the window open most of the day to cool the flat, and that window doesn’t have a screen. 

Yesterday,  when I’d put Ebb and Violet in the crib so I could take a phone call (they can climb out, but I can be across the room before they successfully escape), a common blue butterfly flew in through the window. Before I could get back to the crib, Violet had grabbed the insect, thrust it into her mouth and chomped down on it. Fortunately, they spit it out in disgust, but then Ebb tried to grab the spat-out insect for a taste as well. And started screaming like an air raid siren when I confiscated the thing before they could get it to their mouth. 

Tagging (for Sunday, most likely, it's fucking late!), everyone above and @angelsfalling16, @bazzybelle, @basiltonbutliketheherb, @bookish-bogwitch, @carryonsimoncarryonbaz, @captain-aralias, @fight-surrender, @fatalfangirl, @foolofabookwyrm-activated, @giishu, @frjsti, @ileadacharmedlife, @johnwgrey, @krisrix, @messofthejess, @nightimedreamersghost, @otherworldsivelivedin, @prettylightsbigcity, @palimpsessed, @raenestee, @tea-brigade, @urban-sith, @whogaveyoupermission, @yellobb-old
