Buddie ficlet
Choose your on adventure?
Buck/Eddie + Chris being cute
- - -
Eddie and Buck were in the kitchen, doing their normal after dinner routine. Eddie refuses to let Buck do the dishes after he’s just cook a whole meat for him and his son, and Buck refuses to sit back while Eddie cleans. So as Eddie washed the dishes, Buck dries them and puts them away. Each working perfectly in sink, expertly attuned to one another, to their partner’s needs. And man, don’t each of them wish that that word means more than it does.
“Bucky! Can you come help me with my assignment?” With out a word, but with two blinding smiles, Buck puts away the fish in his hand, knocks shoulders with Eddie and leaves the room.
As Buck heads into the living room Eddie can’t control the find smile that stays on his face, he can hear his partners foot steps slowly fading in the direction of his son. He can hear his smooth voice questioning Christopher on what home work he’s doing and he can hear Christopher’s voice, in that hushed tone which means that his son is roping Buck in on one of his schemes and trying to keep it a secret from Eddie.
And right here, right now, Eddie has never been more content and happy this this is his life.

Hi, I lost a fic and can't seem to find it, so I was wondering if you could help me out.
It's set in the Underground. Eren's living in a house and growing a bunch of plants. Levi's trying to lose the people chasing after him when he either gets injured in the process, or is already injured prior to the chase, and crashes down onto one of Eren's flower patches. And Eren doesn't give him his name until later on in the fic after he helped him. (First, an alias, and then I think his real name some time after.)
Repeating History by RosyLilac
Levi had always been a sucker for those gem-like eyes. Those eyes beseeched him to do their bidding; from smuggling literal horseshit for fertilizing his precious garden, to adopting three kids and a teenager without Levi putting the ring on him let alone growing the balls to confess yet ("It's been 18 years, Levi," Farlan reminded him, the long-suffering witness). And the effect didn’t lessen when those eyes were as big as double his head and the owner now a fifteen meter of bone-white, bare-assed, hammer-swinging juggernaut currently begging to be allowed to cross the sodding ocean to meet up with his psycho older nephew and conduct a peace summit with delegations from all over the world.
a.k.a How Eren Jaeger channeled Ymir Fritz, got thrown backward in time, stuffed himself into his aunt’s dead body while stealing a titan, and proceed to save (almost) everybody’s life. And somehow, no matter how many things Eren redid right, Levi still ended up suffering from dealing with his antics. [MAJOR SPOILERS FROM THE ANIME AND MANGA UP TO THE LATEST CHAPTER]
Warnings: violence, minor character death, amputation.

More fan casts of leading ladies I’d love to see Luke Newton act alongside:
Luke and Aimee Lou Wood (every British actor employed by Netflix must interact at least once)
Project: They’re bringing back the frazzled Englishwoman romance, obviously
Luke and Charithra Chandran (the two most under-appreciated Bridgerton actors, they would break the internet, you have to have the vision!!!)
Project: Modern romantic drama, something glamorous, chic, and sexy OR something light and fun because they’re both so cute. But they both are such talented actors I’d want to see them in something that really lets them go for it.
Luke and Victoria Pedretti
Project: Something dark and tragic. They’re both pretty criers. Based on these photos I’m making up a thriller where two actors are on a project and one gets way too into method acting, and takes their role to far and starts terrorizing their costar.
Luke and Crystal Clarke (I watched Sanditon for HER)
Project: They’re both period piece pretty, so I’d love to put them in something in the past. Also I could see them in a fantasy setting where she’s a Princess and he really has to win her over.
Luke and Chinenye Ezeudu (Sex Education fumbled the friends to lovers potential she had with Jackson it’s time to pair her up with the FtoL KING)
Project: Modern romance, something steamy. I get bad boy/good girl vibes with this pairing, idk.

Good points here. Aang was not content with his friendship with Katara. What makes FtoL special is how much they love each other as friends first. The romance is just the icing on the cake.
Ka/taang: friends-to-lovers or the Friend Zone?
It’s almost axiomatic, in any ATLA shipping discussion, that Ka/taang is the friends-to-lovers ship while Zutara is the enemies-to-lovers ship, and that differences in shipping tastes can be boiled down to whether you prefer FTL or ETL.
My first ship was Percabeth. My biggest ship was Klaine. It took me until Mockingjay to let go of my Gale-and-Katniss-are-childhood-friends rose-tinted goggles and start liking Everlark. I started dabbling in ETL because of Zutara, but I’m incredibly picky about it (do not ask me how many Dramione fanfics made me irrationally, disproportionately mad).
All this to say: as a longtime friends-to-lovers enthusiast, I should theoretically love Ka/taang. But…
My difficulty with Ka/taang as a friends-to-lovers ship boils down to this: Aang and Katara’s friendship was always narratively framed as insufficient, because Aang liked her from the start and always wanted a romantic relationship. And imo that dynamic really colours their entire friendship.
I like to think Aang would’ve been a ride-or-die friend — the type to give up the Avatar State to rescue her, the type to commit ecoterrorism and help her get arrested, the type to make her a flower necklace to cheer her up — even if he didn’t have a crush on her, but I will never know that. We never got to see the pure friendship part of friends-to-lovers, because the spectre of the romantic relationship was always there. Before the last five minutes of the show, Katara’s feelings for Aang range from “plausibly interested” (The Headband, Cave of Two Lovers) to “doesn’t hate it” (Day of the Black Sun, The Fortuneteller) to “no” (Ember Island Players). Yet Katara’s eventual capitulation to reciprocation of Aang’s feelings was always depicted as inevitable, starting from s1 when the prisoners during Avatar Day reassured him that she’d “come around” because he’s a catch. It’s as if friendship, even one full of devotion and mutual love like the one they share, is not enough.
And that’s just totally antithetical to what I love about a friends-to-lovers dynamic. I love romances where characters value each other outside of attraction, when they see each other for who they are (this goes double for pretty characters like Katara, whose complexity and imperfections are just as important as her beauty and her care for others). I love the idiots in love sub-trope, where they’re obviously into each other, yet do a bunch of mental gymnastics to remain in comfortable denial (we got a little bit of this earlier in the series, but by s3 we were firmly in Aang-pines-and-Katara-deflects territory). In every friends-to-lovers story I’m simply obsessed with the confess-and-kiss scene, but the version we got in ATLA was ruined by the lack of reciprocation, twice.
Over time, because Aang was written as so insistent about his affections, Ka/taang went from a friends-to-lovers story to a Nice Guy Friend Zone “why doesn’t she like me” story. I mentioned Everlark earlier: I got the same ick for Gale in Mockingjay as I did for Aang in s3, where the woman is not interested yet he still badgers her about it. (And considering Gale is canonically hot, I don’t think the relative attractiveness of Aang is the issue here). But Gale’s insistence was presented as his problem, his lack of empathy, his self-righteousness; Aang’s insistence was just a part of his quest to get the girl.
A lot of people say Zutara is a female fantasy, whether they mean it in a positive or pejorative way. Nobody says the same about Ka/taang, even though women definitely have friends-to-lovers fantasies too. A good friends-to-lovers story reminds me of all the times when I was an idiot before getting together with a friend I was actually head-over-heels for. Ka/taang reminds me of all the times when I was not interested in a friend and they didn’t respect my preference. Friends-to-lovers is a delicate balance, maintained only by unerring mutual respect and unconditional care for each other, and it can veer into Nice Guyism if the writers aren’t thoughtful about why this dynamic is so appealing. Which is exactly what happened with Ka/taang.

Could I get a crack fic? I've read all of the Crack fics under multiple ereri blogs and I need more that haven't been suggested please!
A Long Awaited Confession by orphan_account
“Patricia stole my tongue,” Levi slurs, his tongue still poking out of his mouth. “The bitch stole my tongue.”
“Levi, you are poking your tongue out of your—“
Levi shakes his head rapidly and points over at Silvia (not Patricia) who is just chuckling to herself and nodding at Levi.
“WHERE IS MY TONGUE?!” Levi yells, pointing at well..his tongue.
Or; Levi gets his wisdom teeth removed, is a big mess over it and accidentally confesses his life long crush on Eren.

so today one of my friends asked me why I know all the words to "country roads"
fam i grew up and live in Colorado, and John Denver - because of his name and the song "rocky mountain high," among other things - is practically the state animal. In second grade music class, we learned the words to "country roads" at the same time as we learned the national anthem. I'm not even joking
#ms. bayert if youre out there#thanks for those good good tunes#also my parents love john denver for some reason#they deadass have like 3 of his albums#i wish i was kidding#my music taste is suspect as it is#i listen to basically everything ftol 60s soul to '10s electroswing

It was so fucking weird
I’ve since found out the contradictory that is the self-cest in Loki
The og writer thought of it/wanted it to be a romance
The director sees it/wants it platonic
And the someone (tbh I forget their role) saw Sylvie as a maternal figure to Loki ??
This show needs so much help and so do I
Me: having a good time watching the loki finale
Marvel: ✨Cannon incest ✨
Me:
#send help#this is too weird and it’s not ok with me like— what the actual fuck— who ok-ed this#I agree with the thought of the kiss wasn’t a romantic kiss but it was sylvie manipulating Loki to catch him off hairs so she can kill him#it’s so much better than the alternative but is WAY more heart breaking#ftol
