#god help me I'm ficcing again

A preview of coming attractions:

Adrian looked over at him with wide, curious eyes. His tongue was poking out of the corner of his mouth, the way it sometimes did when he was concentrating especially hard. Chris cleared his throat again and reached for his beer, gaze skimming over the dark, polished wood of the table. His face was hot. Someone really ought to adjust the fucking thermostat in here. If it kept fluctuating like this it was totally going to ruin the ambiance for all the real couples hoping to enjoy a romantic evening together. "I, um - " Chris started, raising his glass. "We should do a toast." "Oh," Adrian blinked. He set his fork down, cake and ice cream slopping back onto the plate. "Um, sure." He picked his beer up too and canted his head to one side. "What are we toasting?" "I don't fucking know, man," Chris shrugged, feeling irritable and harassed, despite the fact that he was the one who'd suggested a toast in the first place. "I mean, we're still alive. That's worth celebrating, probably, given the year we've had." "Okay," Adrian agreed with an easy grin, hoisting his glass a little higher. "Here's to surviving an alien invasion." He considered for a second and added in an embittered mutter, "Even if Economos totally stole my chance to kill a space gorilla with a chainsaw." That had Chris squinting at him across the table. "The gorilla wasn't from space," he pointed out. "Maybe not," Adrian allowed, "but the bug controlling its brain definitely was, so I'm pretty sure it still counts." Chris couldn't argue this—or, he probably could, but it was more trouble than it was worth to attempt to get Adrian to cede any ground when he'd already made his mind up about something—so he nodded his acquiescence and reached across the table to clink their glasses together.

SQH prompt since you asked for one in the tags of that one post.

SQH and SQQ on their cart journey to get the sun moon dew mushroom seeds!

Thanks for the suggestion! I love their stupid little roadtrip together xD although this quickly became less about me figuring out SQH's hair/robes and more about me figuring out how in the world to draw a horse drawn carriage... SQQ needs to use his sword more just so I can avoid this

I was in the mood to draw big bro Oreshi and baby bro Bokushi and thought it would be a perfect time to make them all cuddly (loosely based on this post). Hope it heals you as much as it healed me.

[Art related to my fic, Accidental Siblings.]

rolling up my sleeves as I open my doc before writing another variation of the exact same fic I've written a dozen times before

the flash should have ended with barry quitting his job at ccpd to become a stay-at-home husband and that's on that

this is how temptation to write occurs:

start reading in new fandom

latch onto a meow meow

start a folie à deux with an enabler (@rozaceous 👀)

fandom haunts my dreams, dream some weird/funny shit

(if it stops here, i can still break free)

look up fandom geography, draw hypotheticals on sourced maps

imagine the fictional economic development of specific industries/sectors of an industry

I SWEAR I KEEP TRYING TO DO ART BUT THEN SOMETHING GETS IN THE WAY AND THEN I PROCRASTINATE AND THEN SIX MONTHS PASS

going to try and sleep now but adding chess medieval au to the list of chess aus i need to stop thinking about so much but won't because it has inevitably taken up space in my brain that was never available in the first place ❤️

[harrowharkwife]

swear to god if i open a fanfic ONE MORE TIME only to be greeted with an author's note saying "i asked chatgpt to tell me a story about-" i am going to go fucking NUCLEAR

Do any NieYao (or general 3zun) shippers follow me? I've been tossing around the idea of a nieyao fic but I'm getting tripped up by timeline shit because good lord JGY's life is a nightmare... is there anyone who wouldn't mind either:

a) chatting with me about timeline/canon stuff to help me get sorted

b) sending me recs of their favourite nieyao fics 👀 for, uh, strictly research related purposes for sure for sure

[elytrafemme]

well whoever it was who tried to switch in is gone i think. hashtag slay moment

[it-goes-on]

Chu Wanning has an unrequited crush, a past filled with secrets he'll take to his grave, and a top-secret night hunt.

Mo Ran, predictably, is aware of precisely none of these things.

from chapter 24:

I just love when a fanfic is so very soft that I have to stop reading every three rows and walk around my room for a bit with a hand on my heart while whispering "oh my god they glanced at eachother", because I get too overwhelmed with love and sweetness.
