I love you all immensely. Take care. 💖

It’s nearly midnight in Norway by the time you’re free of the airport. The train station isn’t far; it’s part of the airport. You wait on a bench between the rails as your boarding is two hours away. You sit with your luggage and mope. This new land only adds to the gloom clinging to you.

You shiver as a draft flows down the tunnel. Not only is grey and grim, but it’s cold. It’s almost June but the weather is more akin to the cusp of winter and spring back home.

Your weeks of research couldn’t prepare you for the real things. All that anticipation could never compare to that moment of desolation; alone in this far land, away from everything you knew. Everything around you is new and foreign and unwelcoming.

When the train pulls up, you wait in queue with the other passengers. Some are native, speaking in lilted English or indecipherable Norwegian. Duolingo hasn’t done much for you as you catch only scraps of pronouns and verbs. Others are new arrivals like yourself but they seem much more certain of themselves. You feel utterly lost.

You show your ticket and board. You tuck your bag away with the larger pieces kept at the front of the carriage and hug your carry-on in your lap. You stare out the window as the train begins to roll on the tracks, screeching as it pulls out into the black night of this strange land.

The subtle rumble of the locomotive lulls you into a half-sleep. Your head is wrought with the ache of your building hangover and twisted visions of the life left behind. You hear Steve’s final goodbye, you feel the hug that was snugger on your end than his, and you feel the razor of Peggy’s spiteful eye. Even in a stupour, you can’t forget it. You hope Sam is right and that it will fade with time, yet you fear it might all be gone for good.

You wake as the automated voice announces your stop as the next one. You sit up and rub the sleep from your eyes. You’re trying to be optimistic. Just focus on work. That’s what this is all about. Everyone keeps saying it and you haven’t heard any of them. This is a great opportunity. What you’ve been hoping for all these years. How did you forget that?

You disembark and drag your bag behind your heavy feet. You’re exhausted but you still have a trek to go. Everything looks so different than back home. Small differences but enough to reinforce your displacement.

You find the rental car kiosk at the other end of the station and show your reservation. Work is paying for that too. Apparently, you’ll need it to get to the site. Another harbinger of desolation.

You hook up your phone to the built-in bluetooth and tap the address already saved in your maps. The app takes a moment to recenter and finally, you’re off. You wonder if you should even be driving. You’re definitely not drunk anymore but you’re barely awake.

It’s only an hours ride across the city, just along the ridges that look off onto the coast. It’s beautiful. You can see that even through your melancholy.

The morning rises as you get your key to the blue paneled townhouse. You should try to stay up to reset your clock but you’re jet lagged to the bone. The moment the door is locked, you let your bags fall to the floor and stumble through to the first piece of furniture you see. You collapse face first onto the couch, unable to feel the impact as you plummet into a deep sleep.

Time, space, and all your pain disappears. There is only the endless void of fatigue. Your mind is too tired to summon nightmares or nonsensical visions. Your body is so drained that even your brain is empty.

You wake on your arm, fingers tingling painfully as your shoulder muscles burn. You hiss and sit up. The bend of your fingers and a shaky attempt to move your elbow make you whine. Ugh. You rub feeling back into the limb as you lean against the back of the couch.

You look around, finally able to take it all in. The house is neat and sleek. White plaster and pale wood finishes. The couch you sit on is a sectional and there’s a match ottoman across from you. The TV mounted on the wall reflects the shadow of the archway behind you and the tall lamp in the corner and the stone and marble ornaments.

You rise, wobbling on your legs, and put your arms out to get your bearings. You meander through the townhouse. You can hardly admire the furnished interior as it underlines your loneliness. All this space for just you.

There’s a kitchen at the rear of the house, a large wooden island standing center to a fridge with a glass door and polished counters carved in granite. The tiles are pristinely placed diamonds in hexagons and a large window looks out into the rain-soaked yard. It’s night again, or maybe that’s what the daylight looks like here.

Upstairs, there’s a bedroom and a bathroom. A full tub and separate shower, two sinks set into a sparkling counter, and a wall of mirrors above them. It truly is a dream but why doesn’t it feel like it?

You amble down stairs and fish out your phone. The battery is at eight percent. You have several texts. All from Sam. You only remember then why you don’t see any from Steve. No, you won’t check.

You quickly type that you’ve landed safely and set the cell down. You’ll let it die before you plug back in. You need time. You need to get yourself straight. You need to accept that this is all real. You made this choice.

You’re starting over. It’s a new life and there’s no room for your heart here.

💟

You have the night to unpack, more than just your luggage. Still, there are things you can’t let out. Not yet. As much as the blade twists in your chest, taking it out will mean a deluge you can’t quell. For now, you just won’t think about it.

You sleep a few more hours and wake just before six. You have your bag ready to go for the day. You tie on your boots and pull on a lined jacket before braving the Norwegian summer. You lock the door behind you and yawn into the brisk air.

Before you head for the site, you stop at a cafe you see along the way. You get an egg biscuit and a coffee with extra espresso. You’re sure to add on a snack to eat between your work.

You drive towards the greater mountains and turn onto the road that angles up the side. You follow the curved ledge as the GPS guides you through the car speakers. The drive is two hours up, maybe a bit quicker on the way down. Suddenly, a ping sounds from the system and you glance at the screen; ‘signal lost’. Shoot. It’s okay. You think you’re almost there.

You pull over, not that there’s much space to do so. You have the physical maps you’ll use for the work itself. You find yourself amid the lines and symbols and memorise the path forward. You continue on cautiously, reassured as you’re met with a sign that delineates the site. The plot has already been closed off with a fence.

‘Grant land. No trespassing.’

You park just outside the fencing and grab your bag and your breakfast. You sit on the hood and eat as you look over the muddy site. You read the grant report. It’s here they think there was a settlement. Not a very big one but an important one.

The rock wall hugs the site in an almost perfect basin as the slick land is barren of almost any growth. You’ll start with gridding it all out, both with string and on paper. You clap your hands off and get up to begin. The process will keep your distracted.

You put your earbud in and set to task. You pause to sip coffee and mark the paper between planting the stakes and the string the twine to divvy it all up in squares. You watch where you put each step, the mud sucking at your treads. A wet site is never an easy one.

It takes the first day just to prep for digging and you don’t even think you’re done. You’re tired and achy and ready to go home. It’ll take you nearly three hours back by your guess. The night will be a short one as you figure you’ll need to head out earlier, especially if you hope to take advantage of the fleeting sunlight.

As you get back to the townhouse, it’s night again. You walk down to a fish restaurant just a block away. The faces are friendly and the food is good, but it all seems so bland. You eat and go back to your accommodation. Not home, just a place to lay your head.

You check your phone. Back amid the world of the living, you have a dozen messages; Sam, Bucky, your mom, Arturo. You respond to each of them in turn, assuring them that all is well. You don’t have the energy for much more.

Yet it isn’t up to you. Your phone chimes at you as you near the bed, sitting on the edge as you answer. You know with Sam that ignoring him will only make him worse.

“Hey,” you answer with an unrestrained yawn.

“Yo, how ya feeling?” he asks.

“Erm, tired,” you lean forward, crossing and arm over your knees. “How are things there?”

“Eh, usual. So, uh, did that paradise punch knock you on your ass too or am I getting old?” He chuckles.

“Heh, yeah, no I’m feeling it still,” you mutter.

“Mm, it’s late there...” he says, “sorry, if I’m keeping you up.”

“No, it’s fine. Just... a lot of driving.”

“Oh? You worked today?”

“Wanted to get a head start,” you shrug as you play with the fold of your pajamas across your knee.

“How is it? Is it bleak? Cold? Are the men gruff?”

“Uh, yeah, I guess. Grey. Bit chilly but it’s not bad around noon,” you say dully, “haven’t seen much of the locals. With how long it takes me to get up the mountain...”

“Oh, a mountain,” he echoes enthusiastically, “that’s exciting.”

“I guess. Eats away the day.”

“I’m sure,” he agrees glumly, “hey, don’t forget to treat yourself. Take a weekend off and hit that spa.”

“I will. I just got here.”

“Well, we all miss you,” he says. “Bucky especially. We got in a huge blow out the other day over the string in his hoodie.”

“Of course you did,” you can’t help but laugh.

“Really, I didn’t do anything. I was trying to fix it and it just... slipped inside, I don’t know. I don’t think it was about the string,” he snickers. “Probably having to deal with Steve and his--” Sam stops himself, “sorry.”

“What? No, it’s fine. Really. I came out here to get away but it doesn’t mean he doesn’t exist.”

“I know but you’re tryna forget him. Like you should,” Sam insists. “And he’ll realise soon enough what he missed out on all these years. And you need to do the same. Go out, explore, enjoy it. You’ll need to have some good stories to bring back to us here, we’re dying of boredom without you.”

“Yeah, uh, I’ll try,” you grumble, “anyway, I gotta head out early for the dig so I should let you go.”

“Right, of course,” he agrees, “don’t be a stranger.”

“I won’t. Promise.”

“Night,” he says.

You return a ‘good night’ and hang up. You toss your phone onto the pillow and heave as you clutch your head. You hate this. Why did you come all this way just to suffer? You should have just stuck it out. Sat on the sidelines like you always did and just swallow it all down. This is worse. Being so alone.

There’s no going back. Not now. So you just need to get through this and after... after you’ll just have to face Mr. and Mrs. Rogers with a fake smile and broken heart.

💟

The next week goes by much like your first days there. You wake up, drive up the mountain, plot, dig, clean up, and drive back. You sleep almost as soon as you sit down. You don’t have time to mull over what you left behind, not as you catalogue every bone and bead you come across.

You check in with Arturo when you can, just to confirm that everything is going according to plan. Often, you’re asleep when anyone else calls. You wake up to notifications from your mom and Sam and even Bucky. You should call them back but you just can’t. You can’t put on a fake voice for them. Not yet.

You take a day off. Only after Arturo insists. You know you should. You may as well have a proper grocery shop. You can’t keep living off the cafe and fish shop.

The shop feels more like a market. You pick through produce and meats, and get what’s easy. You’ll cook it all and package it up so you can just heat it up later. Some muffins to eat on your way up the mountain and maybe a few protein bars.

As you trawl the grocery store aisles, you pull out your phone. You have a pile of unread notifications from Insta. You don’t often check it anyway but your curious and a little homesick.

You see your mom’s post about her trip to the vineyard with her book club pals and Sam’s story with a very agitated looking Bucky. That makes you laugh. You scroll by some crafting videos and the pages you follow of castle curators living your aspirational goals.

Then you stop. You pull the cart still and go rigid as you stare at the screen. The image of Steve and Peggy burns into your retinas like a blinding light. It’s there engagement announcement. He has her in his arms, kissing her, as she holds out her hand to the camera to show off the diamond.

You can’t breathe. Your chest is on fire and your ears are ringing. It’s like salt in the wound and you don’t doubt it's intentional, at least on Peggy’s part.

Your hands shake as you grip the phone tightly and tap on Steve’s username. You ignore the rest of his profile and the pictures you know will only add to the turmoil brewing in your stomach. You hit the button in the corner and tap again and again. ‘You are about to block ‘starsnstripes18, are you sure’. Yes and yes!

You lock the screen and drop the phone into your purse, nestled into the basket of the cart. You grasp the bar and push the cart forward, steadying your steps with it. You look between the shelves and exhale.

You need to go cold turkey. No more Steve, no more Peggy, no more New York. You stood still so long, it feels good to run away from it all.

Help request to Rayman and retrogaming fans

Unfortunately, as much as I’m making efforts in solving my long-term unemployment situation there are things out of my control and I reached a point I really, really, need help.

Besides my grandma’s recent passing, there’s been a collection of unlucky events happening to me and my family in a small time interval. Both our dish washing machine and my Nintendo Switch Lite need to be repaired. The console stopped turning on regardless what I do and it’s out of warranty already. The console’s fixing, alone, can be up to 103€ according to the Iberian Nintendo support page).

But the worst case was our car’s “death”. Days after my grandma’s funeral, the car burnt its electronic system to the point of replacing that system being more expensive than the current value of the car of the same model without problems, meaning we were forced to replace the whole vehicle to a different model. The car is essential for our quotidian lives even for simple things such as doing groceries and buying food and cat litter for our seven small felines that we own. The latter unpredictable expense is very costly and adds a bigger layer of problems on my family’s end about financial management given that my mother is also jobless and there’s the bed replacement (done in January 2024) funds I want to also return to her whenever I manage.

2025 is going to be a difficult year for me and I already recently had to shrink down my Crash Bandicoot collection to a single item for a start but it’s still not enough. Now I had to make a very difficult decision of selecting personal items from my private Rayman collection and make them available to anyone in the Rayman and retrogaming fan community to be able to purchase in case they show interest in any particular object.

Please note the following details:

Products that are shown alongside with other product or more in the same photograph square means that those items are only sold as a pack/batch and not separately. I can clarify which ones by DM if you aren’t sure through the photographs.

I ship to most countries in the world, and always with tracking code so we’re both able to know its whereabouts. I won’t accept other types of shipping due to safety reasons.

The shipping address and other sensitive information will be exclusively used to ship the parcel.

Prices will be always discussed by DM, as well shipping costs as these vary depending on the destination country and parcel weight.

PayPal only for payments. While I prefer EUR currency I can also accept GBP and USD.

I’m conscious of how a good portion of the list contains particularly rare and valuable collectibles.

Some items prices are negotiable, especially if someone is interested in acquiring at least 3 different items or more that combined make up a significant total.

All items work 100%, including the Playstation accessories.

The Rayman memory card will be formatted if it gets a new onwer.

MS-DOS era games require emulation techniques to work on modern computers and there are community projects like Rayman Control Panel that help with that.

All games are complete in the box and between very good condition to like new.

The Rayman memory card is in good overall state.

The statues are like new and will be packed carefully to avoid transportation damage.

I can consider including the matching Switch videogame to the pack if I get a fair offer.

I reserve the right to not accept a sale for reasons not mentioned here.

List of items available in the photos:

Rayman Gold [PC/MS-DOS] (Rare, Original Big Boxed United Kingdom Edition)

Rayman For Ever [PC/MS-DOS] (Rare, Original Big Boxed France Edition, it even includes a Ubisoft catalogue with unique Rayman drawings)

Quick CD-ROM Demo Nº2 - Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc [PC/Windows]

Rayman M [PC/Windows] (United Kingdom Edition, still factory sealed!)

Rayman Rush [Sony PlayStation] + DualShock Controller [Sony PlayStation]

Rayman 2: The Great Escape [PC/Windows] (Very rare, Original Big Boxed United States of America Edition; I only saw maybe not more than 2 copies like this for sale online in over 15 years)

Rayman 100 Niveaux Inédits [PC/Windows] (Rare, Original Big Boxed France Edition)

Rayman Designer [PC/Windows] (Rare, Original Big Boxed France Edition)

Rayman 1 [PC/Windows] (Rare, Original Big Boxed European Edition)

Rayman Gold [PC/Windows] (Rare, Original Big Boxed France Edition)

Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc [PC/Windows] (The manual is translated in Portuguese but the games are in multilanguage)

Rayman 2: The Great Escape Sony Playstation Memory Card (Guillemot brand, uncommon item)

Rayman Raving Rabbids [PC/Windows] (Original United Kingdom Edition)

Rayman Raving Rabbids Activity Centre [PC/Windows] (Original United Kingdom Edition)

Rayman 2: The Great Escape [Sony Playstation] (Original France and Germany Edition)

Full collection of 4 medium-sized PVC statues of Mario+Rabbids: Kingdom Battle characters

Other alternative ways to help me that don’t involve buying my Rayman items:

Ko-Fi donations (https://ko-fi.com/haruka_vii)

Currently opened with the goal I’ve referred earlier of collecting enough funds of the bed replacement expenses to return to my mother combined with the needed funds to be able to send my Nintendo Switch Lite for repair.

Art commissions

I can open a limited number of slots and draw single or groups of characters in a single digital or traditional drawing. Details can be discussed through DM!

Reblogging and sharing

If you know anyone who could be potentially interested in getting anything please share them, it’s also a help!

I don’t like to ask help but it’s been a rough timeline for me. Thank you for reading in advance, any help is greatly appreciated while I don’t manage to find a job. 🙏

This hit me out of nowhere like a water balloon left in the refrigerator for 3 hours so bear with whatever madness you're about to see because I don't even know what I'm going to say but I do know I'm 100% reaching like crazy with some stuff

It's common knowledge that Splinter spends the least amount of "lesson time" with Mikey, and it's a common consensus that Splinter doesn't need to spend much "lesson time" with Mikey considering how he tends to figure things out for himself. But I don't really see much acknowledgement of their scarce amount of "lesson time" greatly impacting Mikey over the course of the series. Unless I'm not treating this enough like a "Where's Waldo" game, idk-

Putting aside Karai's Vendetta, it takes a grand total of 31 episodes for us to see Mikey get any one-on-one "lesson time" with Splinter.

We see throughout S1 that Mikey is likelier to go with the flow of one of his brothers' plans or suggestions during a mission than doing something major on his own. It's simply the more favorable option for everyone than him screwing things up or getting himself in trouble. His "friendship" with Bradford was his first time landing himself and the team in hot water, and he's evidently remorseful near the end of the episode. Not only did his actions cause trouble, but he was being used by who he thought was his first human friend, and he learns that every human isn't so accepting like April.

He screwed up, and everyone had to pay as a result.

That could be part of the reason why Mikey was so adamant about befriending Leatherhead; he saw good in the alligator and wanted his brothers to believe that he wasn't screwing things up again. The guy's a mutant like them and he's fighting the Kraang, there's no way this'll go like the Bradford incident.

Meanwhile, his moments of silliness are often reserved for lowering the tension of a situation, or because the urge is there to be given into, but his brothers tend to view this behavior as him being the typical goofball they know him as. Which unfortunately painted a permanent image of himself that rubs him the wrong way.

That leads us to Parasitica, and it's quite the significant episode because it's the second time we see Mikey express blatant frustration at his skills and mental fortitude being underestimated. He proves to his brothers that he's capable of finishing a job on his own, following directions to a T, and making things work with his own plan of action. But his earlier soiling of Leo's comic ruins his moment of accomplishment and the episode ends on a comedic note. It show us that the guys are sometimes reluctant to praise Mikey because of his tendency to let things go to his head and, in the process, Mikey sometimes doesn't feel respected by them, something he expressed to Bradford way back when.

Come S2 though, Mikey immediately screws things up and adds to his brothers' list of reasons to not respect him because he doesn't quite read the room when he admits their wrongdoing, nor does he expect April to react so strongly to something he sees as an innocent mistake on their part. He's used to joking around or speaking lightly about serious manners to ease the tension, but not only did that not work this time around, it served to make things worse in a way.

We don't see Mikey get reprimanded since he was right to tell her that their mishandling of the mutagen is why Kirby was mutated, but I'd believe it if Ciro Nieli randomly stepped forward and said it did significantly affect him. His slip up doesn't affect him too heavily though, at least not enough for him to avoid aiding the team in finding mutagen and fighting the Foot clan. Not only that, he saves the day with the help of popcorn and a septic tank when they're attacked by the squirrelanoids, and the guys willingly praise him for his actions.

But we don't get anything really centered on Mikey until the fifth episode of S2.

He has a moment of enlightenment and he chooses to dabble in some mutagen off screen to be cooler and less like the typical goofball his brothers often label him as. Of course, this greatly backfires on him as the mutagen that makes up his body becomes unstable and threatens to explode in an unpleasant manner, so the turtles spend most of the episode focused on curing him rather than trying to work through what made him resort to such measures in the first place. They even prove Mikey's point in one particular scene when he makes a suggestion that goes ignored and adds to his disappointment.

Once they finally cure Mikey and prevent him from meeting an untimely demise at the hands of mutagenic acne, Splinter is the one to reassure the youngest turtle that he needn't change himself to appease his brothers. Mikey moves on from Splinter's wisdom to gloat about being right when they didn't believe him, to which Leo tells him he just took a gamble because had no idea he'd be right about it, and the episode once again ends on a comedic note with Mikey being the one who again saves the day.

I said near the beginning of this that Mikey's usual behavior during missions was to go along with whatever was asked of him, and he has the tendency to go in the same direction that those around him appear to be going.

Post the acne incident however, there's a noticeable shift. Maybe Splinter's words really resonated with him, or maybe his learning experience gave him the realization he needed, I don't exactly know.

Either way, Mikey changed.

This happened with the giant wasps and squirrelanoids as well, but it's not until S2 is halfway over with that we see Mikey really start to trust his instincts more and become less reliant on his brothers to help save the day. He still seeks their strength and smarts when in a rough spot mind you, but when he sees an opportunity to deal with something on his own, he takes it and doesn't wait for permission or looks of mutual agreement.

His use of Ice Cream Kitty in their second confrontation with the Rat King could count as one such instance since he enacted his own whimsical plan, but I'd be inclined to include any other instance of him doing something similar before then. A better representation of the point I'm trying to make is his solo endeavour into Dimension X. It takes 19 episodes after his acne incident for this to happen, but it's our first huge instance of Mikey initiating and going through with something that goes completely against his brothers' wishes.

One probably thought Mikey would sit tight and somehow manage to involve himself in Leatherhead's rescue later on, but Mikey catches his brothers off guard by running off into danger head first without waiting for anyone. And we see when the guys find him that he miraculously adapted to the new universe; he could take care of himself, he knew how to handle these otherworldly enemies, and he repeatedly helped his brothers and educated them.

This becomes a recurring pattern whenever they enter Dimension X, but Mikey's whims pulling the others into a direction they don't expect to go happens more with each season. The same thing happened when he ran away and found Napoleon, though not to quite the same extreme; he quickly became acquainted with him and acclimated into the group of mutant frogs.

He got by in these situations by being himself. Not like a cooler version that his brothers would probably prefer, but his usual, outlandish, and unorthodox self.

Other than an astounding sense of adaptation that's far above his brothers', he sticks with his gut in the face of retaliation and doubt. He was the only one to sense something wrong with April's mom, and he isn't subtle about it at all, even when his suspicions get him on everyone's bad side. He could've easily laid low for an opening or gone along with everyone else's acceptance of her, but he doesn't. He isn't going to change his mind just because his claims seem crazy and make him look paranoid.

Again, we see something similar whenever everyone second guesses his knowledge of chemicals and compounds. Donnie nearly had an aneurysm when he found him tampering with the retromutagen before their big fight with the Kraang, but he was soon delighted to see the positive results of Mikey's tampering. And when Mikey accidentally bumped a bit of the mind control cure onto Donnie in The Creeping Doom, he decided he should be the one to fix things and made an antidote for Donnie. It's a bit funny how Mikey did both of these things without truly knowing what the result would be, and even he was surprised to see that his concoction worked to cure Donnie of his slow decay of intelligence.

Either way, he usually knows when he's right. He knows he can do so much more than his brothers believe he can at times and he goes out of his way to prove it.

This is getting long (could've been extra long if I really wanted to go in-depth), and I already briefly mentioned something similar for S5 in this post, but I just really like how apparent it is that Mikey embraces who he is more and more as the show goes on. Electric powers? Boom, I'm using them. Seal's broken? Boom, bubblegum. Mutagen bomb ended the world? Boom, I'm making a map that only I can understand.

Fr tho, he once felt insecure about his weird way of behaving and thinking, most notably when he's in a situation that would usually call for the types of planning and actions his brothers are better known for.

But now it's something he utilizes and even holds over everyone's heads at times.

Fics For Gaza

Hello everyone! I'm super excited to announce that I've signed up to be a creator in the @ficsforgaza project! For those of you unfamiliar with the blog, ficsforgaza is a project that allows money to be raised for the people in need in Gaza, and for YOU to get fanfiction you want to read! There are two ways you can go about helping to raise money for a good cause, either by Sponsoring A WIP or Requesting A Fic

How It Works - Sponsoring A WIP Edition:

For every $1 donated to a vetted fundraiser on @ficsforgaza's page with proof DMed to me of your donation, along with which WIP you'd like to sponsor, I will add 200 words onto a WIP of your choosing! This means that $1 = 200 words, $2 = 400 words, $5 = 1,000 words, etc. I will keep an updated tally on how many words into a chapter of any given WIP are owed, and how many I have fulfilled due to this fundraiser!

If you donate $30 to a vetted fundraiser at once and DM me proof of donation, I will write an entire chapter of a WIP of your choosing, regardless of how long that chapter is (ie: you donate $30 and the chapter ends up being longer than 6,000 words and you get all those bonus words for free because you sponsored a whole chapter at once)

Click here to see the four current WIPs you can sponsor (from BSD, SVSSS and Super Mario Brothers Fandoms)

How It Works - Requesting a Fic Edition:

You pick from a list of three fandoms I write for: Bungo Stray Dogs, Scum Villain's Self Saving System, or Miraculous Ladybug

Then you pick a fic length/amount to donate as follows:

$15 for a 2k word fic (estimated completion within 2 weeks of receiving the request)

$30 for a 5k word fic (estimated completion within 3 weeks of receiving the request)

$50 for a 10k word fic (estimated completion within 5 weeks of receiving the request)

I'm open for SFW requests only, no NSFW or Dead Dove Requests unless it's something I've written about on my ao3 page before (aka, I'll do stalking for Bingqiu/Binggyuan but that's about it in terms of Dead Dove), any pairing previously seen on my ao3 page is more than acceptable (SKK, SSKK, Ranpoe, Kouyosano, Tachigin, Higugin, Bingqiu, Bingyuan, Moshang, Miraculous Lovesquare, Nino/Alya, etc) but and most legal ships from these three fandoms, but please DM me if you're unsure if I'm willing to take a request about a certain pairing or character.

DM me proof of donation to a vetted fundraiser through @ficsforgaza and detail what you want in your request and I will do my best to provide it. I reserve the right to turn down a request should it be outside my realm of comfort, and I would highly recommend DMing me first if you'd like me to write about a ship or a character I have not previously written for to double check before submitting your request

Final Notes:

If you can't donate at this time, please help spread the word to people who can by reblogging and check out all the other wonderful creators in the @ficsforgaza project if you're looking for something I can't provide! If you have any further questions feel free to DM me or send me an ask, or check out the FAQs on @ficsforgaza's page!

STXRSLUT RULES AND BOUNDARIES ୨୧

following these is basic respect, failure to follow them could result in you being blocked

DNI if you are : a minor, racist, sexist, pro life (anti abortion), transphobic, trump supporter, homophobic, intending to spread hate

requesting rules

do not send requests that do not conform to my boundaries.

do not spam requests, unless tumblr has told you there was an error, it has probably delivered. If you’re under you can ask, but spamming is not the way to do that.

do not pressure me to answer your requests, I do this for fun and I am not mandated to write anything, I will write what inspires me.

sending overly long requests that do not leave me room to add anything will likely mean I don’t write anything on it. I love to hear these ideas and I’m happy to receive them, but if I can’t add anything I won’t be trying to.

do not send extremely vague requests ie “character x reader on a date” this quite literally doesn’t give me any specification to what you want and I won’t be able to do your request any justice.

what will I write?

yes ; I absolutely will write this

dry humping. daddy kink. oral. fluff. use of weed. alcohol consumption. spanking. exhibitionism. au’s (with credit to whoever created them). dacryphilia. stepcest (step siblings). roleplay. unprotected sex. breeding kink. breath play. size kink. sub!reader. subspace. corruption. body worship. + much more, if you are unsure feel free to ask

maybe ; I might write this depending on context

vomit kink. gun kink. piss kink. breath play. fear play. knife play. slapping. vague mention of abuse. use of cocaine. boot humping. mommy kink. stepcest (step parent). age difference. pain kink. intox. bondage. road head. animal readers (with credit to whoever created them). + much more, if you are unsure feel free to ask

no ; I will not write this under any circumstances

paternal abuse. pedophilia. characters under 18 (reserving flashbacks and main characters children). scat. + possibly more, if you are unsure feel free to ask

— if you are unsure about wehter I will write something, feel free to ask!!!!!

boundaries

I am always open to chatting! I love talking and having conversations even about little insignificant things! never be afraid to have a chat with me!

I am not opposed to being sent porn links as long as they are not used in way to come onto me. also I will generally only open twitter links, so keep this in mind when sending one.

I happily accept emoji anons! just ask and I will add you to a list

I do not condone hateful speech, if you wish to spread hatred my blog is not the space to do it and you will be blocked

I am not responsible for your media consumption, all of my fics are adequately labelled, if one of them makes you feel uncomfortable it is your own fault for going ahead and reading despite warnings

I do not want my work or concepts copied into ai, doing it would be going against my direct wishes and possibly contributing to ai stealing work from writers

I do not have any issues with others writing my au’s or taking inspiration from my writing as long as clear credit is given showing that the ideas are originally mine!

I reserve the right to update these boundaries whenever I feel it is necessary, if something makes me uncomfortable I will be putting myself first

thank you for taking the time to read these boundaries! I hope you enjoy your time on my blog!

⭐️Polly’s writing commissions ⭐️

Hi there! I decided I’d just go ahead and make a writing comms post because well. I need the money. So if you want something written, especially a fanfic, read below!

About me

I am a 23 year old artist/biologist with a decent amount of literary classes under my belt due to my liberal arts education. You can find samples of my work on my ao3, with my more recent works being the highest quality. I love writing fanfiction, especially of the series I’ve already written for, but what I make for free would naturally be less polished than what I would write on request!

Pricing

My base rate is $1 USD/100 words, with a minimum word count of 1000 ($10 USD). As of now my policy is to pay half of the estimated price up front (more on that later), with the remainder paid upon completion of the work.

Commission rules and guidelines

Things I WILL write:

Angst

Fluff

Ships

Horror

Gore (Including character death and torture)

Mildly suggestive themes

Original fiction

Fanfiction

Things I will NOT write:

Smut

Ships between adult/minor, incest, or anything that doesn’t pass the vibe check (can be discussed if unsure)

Fandoms I am uncomfortable with/simply don’t know enough about*

Anything that promotes hate, bigotry, or otherwise problematic stances on groups of real life people and places

*If you would like me to write for a fandom I am not in, I may be willing to for an additional ‘research fee’, dependent on the story concept and complexity/length of the media of origin. That being said, here is a list of fandoms I am almost certainly willing to write for, and the ones I will NOT write for, period:

Will write:

Pokemon

Digimon**

Kirby

Fire Emblem**

Viva Piñata

Sonic the Hedgehog

MOTHER

Splatoon

Dungeon Meshi

Hunter X Hunter

Fullmetal Alchemist**

JJBA**

The Legend of Zelda**

Kid Icarus

**May not be knowledgeable about specific canons

If a specific fandom isn’t here, still feel free to ask if I’m willing/interested so long as it isn’t on the “will not write” list! That being said…

Will NOT write:

H*rry P*tter

H*talia

Att*ck on T*tan

F*af

S*uth P*rk

V*vziep*p shows

Like before, there may be other fandoms I’m uncomfortable with writing for, and I will let you know up front.

Strengths

While I am willing to write just about anything not on my exclusions list, I am most comfortable and well-versed with stories featuring themes of self-discovery, identity conflict, manipulation and control, speculative biology, and interpersonal conflict. Therefore, I am more likely to accept a commission with these themes as I am more confident I can deliver a satisfying product.

Those reading this page may already enjoy some of the works I have written in the past, including ones that I have stated could hypothetically have sequels at some point in time. If you are interested in paying for said sequel to be made, I may be willing to consider a slight discount on pricing given that I already have ideas (and in some cases early unfinished drafts) for said stories. In other words, if you want me to write a sequel to something, you can guarantee I will through commissioning!

Art

I often incorporate artwork into my fanfics, and for additional payment I can add art to your commission as well. My base price for these pieces depends on number and complexity, so it would be worked out on a case-by-case basis. Additionally, if you have artwork you made/commissioned from others that you want featured in your writing commission, please let me see and it will usually not be a problem or cost extra!

Terms and conditions

I reserve the right to decline or cancel a commission for any reason. In cases of cancellation (exception below) or if I am unable to finish a commission due to unforeseen circumstances, you will receive whatever I have already written and refunded the remainder if under half of the originally agreed upon length. If unfinished work is greater than the original payment, you will not be charged extra.

You may request that I not post the finished work publicly, in which case it will only be given to you as a pdf or word doc. However, I may use snippets of the finished product for advertising purposes later, but never the full thing. If this is a concern for you, we can discuss more in detail. I also reserve the right to not post a completed work to my socials, in which case you may do so but only under the condition that you keep my involvement anonymous (I don’t foresee this being an issue, but it is better safe than sorry.) In the case that the work is published to ao3, I request no mention be made on site about the work being paid for/commissioned, as site policy has rules against this!

I often ask friends if they will beta my work, and as such if you are adamant that the commission remains strictly between us that may incur additional cost depending on complexity. This is not, however, a guarantee that anything I write will have a beta reader. Upon delivery of the final payment, you will receive my final draft and may put together a request of minor edits and changes to be made that must not exceed an additional ~2 hours worth of work.

If the final product is +/- 1k words from the original agreed-upon estimate, you will not be charged or refunded for the difference. Anything under or over this amount will be refunded to you in full or will be added to your final payment amount. I will communicate to the best of my ability as soon as possible if it seems that the story will be shorter or longer than originally anticipated (though it will likely trend towards longer) and we can decide how to proceed from there. In some cases, additional payment or the removal of desired plot points and themes may be necessary as I prefer not to deliver a sub-standard work.

Do not use any of my works for training ai language models. If I find out you have any involvement in creating ai tools using stolen or scraped artwork, that is grounds for immediate cancellation of your commission without delivery of the unfinished product and without refund. I do not take that kind of thing lightly.

By requesting a commission, you agree to be held to these terms. Thank you.

Timeline

The timeframe of delivery of the finished project ideally would be ~1 week for works 1-5k in length, 1-2 for 5-15k, 2-3 for 15-30k, and so on. These are estimations, however, and depending on other factors may be completed more or less quickly. Progress reports come in the form of chapter snippets and synopses, in which case after the completion of a chapter I will send you a few paragraphs and a summary of events. You may make requests and adjustments, with the knowledge that time spent revising increases the time before the piece can be completed.

Depending on the length and complexity of the commission, I may close down additional commissions until completion. Additionally, I may close commissions if time is limited. Chapter length and number is up to you, with the acknowledgement that longer chapters mean fewer updates. Chapters must also be a minimum of 1500 words, so commissions under 3000 words will be written as one shots.

Contact and payment

Please DM me here on tumblr to discuss any potential commissions, and payment will be made through PayPal. No writing will be done before initial payment is received, and full refunds will only be available in the first 24 hours after payment is made.

Thank you for reading! I hope to work with you soon!!

~Polly

Hello, My Lovely Spring Rolls!

To celebrate such milestones in my personal (birthday! woot woot!) and tumblr (500 followers!) life, I will be hosting my first-ever (and hopefully the beginning of more) sleepover for all of us to enjoy!

I've only been actively posting my stories on this site since October 2022 and truthfully, you guys have been such a blast and I cannot thank you enough for the support and love you continuously give.

With that being said, I hope you would join me in this sleepover and make more memories together!

For this sleepover, we will be having 2 events; 1) Writing Challenge, and 2) Fic Requests.

🌻This challenge is only open to 18+. Minors, please DNI.

🌻The theme for this challenge is, you guessed it, SPRING! Not only is it on my tumblr name but it's my favorite season of all time. I know we are still far away from it but oh well.

🌻The sleepover will start on January 31st and end on March 31st (though my birthday is on the 7th of March huehue) No late submissions, please.

🌻This challenge is open to all genres BUT (and it's a big one) if you've been hanging around me for a while, you know what my preferences are—angst, smut, and dark.

🌻All tropes are allowed—Mafia, A/B/O, enemies to lovers, lovers to enemies, even step-cest if that's your vibe.

🌻Characters must ONLY be from the following fandom:

Game of Thrones - Jorah Mormont, Petyr Baelish or Jaime Lannister

MCU/Marvel - Vision, Loki, Thor, Bucky Barnes, Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner or Logan Howlett

DCU - Clark Kent or Bruce Wayne

Sebastian Stan Characters - Lee Bodecker or Steve Kemp

Chris Evans Characters - Lloyd Hansen, Ransom Drysdale, Curtis Everett, Andy Barber, Jake Jensen or Ari Levinson

Tom Hiddleston Characters - Jonathan Pine, James Conrad or Thomas Sharpe

Miscellaneous - Joel Miller (The Last of Us - Either Pedro Pascal or the video game character) or Samuel Drake (Uncharted)

🌻Reader insert only, no OFCs or ships. Sorry.

🌻Entries must be new and original. I will not allow any entries that are part of an ongoing series. If it is, make sure that it can be read as a stand-alone piece.

🌻There is no word limit but do make sure to add the Keep Reading line after 500 words.

🌻Please use the tag #rolling into spring writing challenge when posting your work and tag me in it. If I haven't reblogged it or given a comment within 24 hours after you've posted, shoot me a message.

🌻No Underage, Beastiality, Incest, Monster(??) and Water Sports.

🌻A prompt list will be provided for this challenge but it is not mandatory to use them. You can use them as a guide to help you kickstart your work. The most important thing is that your story has the element of Spring in it.

🌻I reserve the right to not read or interact with your work if it makes me uncomfortable or if you didn't abide by the rules. Warnings are a MUST and should be written appropriately.

🌻Any questions that you may have, my DMs are open. You can also join my discord server to engage with others and bounce off ideas with one another.

🌻Rules of the writing challenge pretty much apply here as well.

🌻I will be providing a dialogue prompt list for you to choose from. You can also suggest a trope or give me a brief description of your request.

🌻Please use this form when requesting a fic. Just so as not to crowd my ask box.

🌻Fics will only be written with dark themes. (sorrynotsorry)

Now that the ground rules have been laid, all that's left to do is to have fun! And I look forward to your requests as well as what you'll come up with for this event! Make me squirm and gimme hay fever! (okno) haha

Commissions!

Finally got all my stuff with PayPal sorted and I have some time to do commissions!

So, feel free to DM me here or e-mail me on [email protected] with inquiries. You can choose to pay and support me directly through PayPal or send me a receipt/proof of an equivalent donation to any vetted Palestinian, Sudanese or Congolese fundraiser.

I do character art mostly, but I can add a simple background for free :>

If you want several characters drawn (for example a group scene) or several drawings of one character (for example a sketch sheet as shown under cut) the price is progressively discounted. For example, if you want two characters interacting, it will cost 1.5x more than just one character. If you want two different drawings of one or more characters, it will be at full price. A sketch sheet will depend on how many drawings you want (in theory, it will go from 2 drawings is 50% extra, three drawings is 75% extra, four drawings is ~87% extra and so on. It will vary on the complexity of your character, though).

Commission sheet ID and more art examples under cut.

Image ID: Commission sheet with a purple theme. It has three rounded boxes with the first having a table of prices, the second listing will draw and won't draw, and the third listing terms and conditions.

Price table

Three drawings of an OC in a wheelchair. The first on the far left is lineart only, the second has plain coloring and the third is fully shaded. The drawings are split into a three by three grid. Vertically from top to bottom lists prices depending on bust, half-body and full-body. Horizontally from left to right lists prices depending on lineart, plain colors and rendered. The prices are the following (in order of left to right): top row 5$, 10$, 15$; middle row 15$, 20$, 25$; bottom row 30$, 35$, 40$.

Will

Human(oid)

Furry/Anthro

Suggestive/Pin-up

Ship art (OCs only)

Nudity

Light Gore

Angst

Sensitive themes

Ask if something isn't mentioned

Won't

Machinery/Mecha (unless reference given or simple design)

Feral

Hateful content

Fetishes

Full NSFW

Ask if something isn't mentioned or you're unsure if something crosses the line

Shady's Commissions

Terms and Conditions

Half payment upon accepting, half before giving finished work without watermark.

I reserve the right to decline any commission I want for any reason.

Commissions can only be used for personal use.

I only take payment through paypal.

Full refund if asked before starting sketch, half after starting it, but no refunds after finishing piece.

Commissions may take a while to complete. Please do not rush me, but do bump me at most once a week if you feel it necessary.

Sundays

Another one up! This one is more of a character study sort of thing. Canonically, Izuku started trying to avoid Bakugou to prevent any bullying incidents, so I wonder how he must have truly felt when he found out about the dorm system, and what this meant in terms of the bullying Bakugou put him through.

Up until August, Izuku considered Sunday to be his favorite day of the week.

Sundays meant no school or training, and with the Heroics course being as fast-paced as it was, he'd take any given opportunity to rest. Sundays meant either hanging out with his new friends, having a day in with his mother, or spending time at Takoba Beach with All Might.

Most of all, Sundays gave him a shield against Bakugou.

Since his diagnosis, every day was an exercise in keeping off of Bakugou's radar. Given that the two were in the same class and lived near each other, it was a pretty difficult thing to do. He tried staying as quiet as he could during class, tried casting a wide berth between them by eating lunch alone and leaving home and school well before Bakugou.

Sometimes he succeeded, but other times he didn't.

His notebooks would be burned, his body would be burned. He would be chased down and cornered by Bakugou and his group of friends, insulted for being Quirkless, for being Deku. He'd be punched, kicked, sent home scrambling for a way to hide the injuries from his mother. Starting UA hadn't made his situation any better, because despite having true friends and a caring mentor, Bakugou still found ways to make him feel less than. 'He won't die if he dodges' still rang through his mind from time to time.

Sundays were supposed to be a breather from this, and they were until UA implemented the dorm system.

Izuku understood why they made this change; to better protect the students from any further villain attacks after the PR nightmare that had been the Forest Training Camp attack. It made perfect sense, but he had more than a few reservations about the whole thing due to one person: Bakugou.

If Bakugou treated him the way he did despite only seeing him for seven to eight hours a day from Monday to Saturday, things would only get worse now that they would be seeing each other twenty four hours a day and seven days a week. Anything and everything seemed to set the blonde's temper off, and Izuku wasn't only worried for his own well-being. Though his classmates didn't get the full brunt of Bakugou's rage, that didn't mean that they were safe from his insults or his threats. Who's to say Bakugou wouldn't hurt them the way he had hurt Izuku for so long?

Before, they had three blocks separating them from each other outside of school. Now, they only had two flights of stairs between them. Before, Izuku could be comforted with the knowledge that he only had to grit his teeth and deal with his former acquaintance until 4:30 pm. Now, he would have to share a kitchen and a shower with him.

He already knew that Mr. Aizawa seemed to turn a blind eye to what Bakugou would do to him before, and he couldn't even hope that things would be different now that they were all living together. Yes, he would also be with his friends, but that felt like nothing compared to the ten years of hell Bakugou had put him through.

His former acquaintance had taken many things from him: his self esteem, the right to have friends, the right to caring teachers, and the right to make his own choices about his life. Now, Izuku had to add his favorite day of the week to that list.

#mha fix it fics #anti katsuki bakugou #anti bakugou katsuki #izuku deserves better

official submission guidelines

hi all! a lot of this is in the pinned but i thought i would reiterate it in its own post with a few additions.

this is a femslash february event! that means we have a prompt list for every day of february. if you write, draw, or otherwise create for one of these prompts, or for the other, extra prompts we will be posting throughout january and february, tag your work #spntoxicfemslash on tumblr, mention us @spntoxicfemslashevent, and/or add your work to the ao3 collection.

if you don't have a tumblr but still want to participate, send us an email at spntoxicfemslashevent at gmail dot com with a link to your work and any info about it you want to share, and we will make a post on this tumblr with the link and info.

[prompt list] [intro post]

submission rules:

you must be 18+ – this event deals with mature topics and themes, please only participate if you’re over 18 by the time you post

no underage

obviously given this is a toxic femslash event, elements of misogyny or homophobia or etc that exist in our society will come up and perhaps even permeate the characters and the work itself. however, don’t be a bigot. we reserve the right not to boost your work if it’s racist or something

warnings are your friend – please make sure to tag your works + add disclaimers, so those who want to avoid it can, and those who want to find it also can ;)

what counts as femslash? ships between any characters who are canonically women or have used female vessels for at least part of their screentime.

this event also allows gender change aus, meaning that male characters reimagined as women are also allowed. there's a chance we might end up with a few submissions where canonically woman characters are reimagined as men/non-women which is... also fine, i suppose?

what counts as toxic? it should be sicko. it should be nauseating. it should be bad-to-read. don't be a pussy we are hoping for some real evil stuff. let's get cancellable with it

what counts as a fanwork? that is actually really broad! some possible formats include: posting headcanons, making a playlist, knitting something with a pattern that reminds you of the characters, putting a bunch of our prompts into this bingo card generator and writing five one-sentence fics based on the output, and making a rec list of other fanworks that you think fit into our purview. don't stress if you're not a traditional writer or artist

if you post stuff early we will wait to boost it until the day it's made for. obviously if you post stuff late we'll take it. realistically you have until, like, april if you want to get stuff in really late. though if you end up having to post after february is over it would be cool if you could give us a heads up

this list is subject to change if it turns out we forgot something

go stupid crazy

ＲＵＬＥＳ

⭑ minors do not interact, i’m a whole adult so my writing will contain adult themes. i block any blogs with underage age in bios. i know i can’t control what you do, but please respect my boundaries. i take no responsibility for those that can’t follow rules.

⭑ above anything else, this blog is for me, it's a space for me to express my writing which is my life's passion, please don't expect me to cater exclusively to you, but i do hope you find something you like here.

⭑ i reserve the right to not write any requests that either make me uncomfortable (see below) or i feel incapable of writing.

⭑ i don’t believe in censorship, and my writing may contain dark themes, this is your warning if stuff like that makes you uncomfortable.

⭑ emoji anons welcomed but please don't claim an emoji just to disappear

⭑ i love talking to people so feel free to interact outside of my writing/requests, i just ask you don't trauma dump if we don't know each other

⭑ i take requests, and will only not fulfill a req if it makes me uncomfortable or i have no inspiration for what you’ve submitted (this does not mean i’ll never have inspiration for it !) but also, if you have practically written the whole fic out in your request and i have no room to add my artistic touch, i probably won’t be able to write it.

⭑ i am a full time college student with a life outside of writing, please be patient and respectful of my time, and don't pressure me to write

⭑ for reader fics, i try to not describe the reader, but if it’s my original idea (not a req) then i’ll probably default to what i know, which is a reader like me. that being said, if you want your reader to have specific characteristic (race and disabilities especially) please include examples, as i can only write what i know and as a white person i don’t want to inaccurately portray readers that are different from me. if you notice i have given reader a specific trait, it was most likely a mistake, please let me know so i can fix it.

⭑ in addition, i will only write about certain topics on my own terms (meaning don’t request it, if anything, tell me that’s something you’d like to read in the future) and that includes: domestic violence, eating disorder, dubcon (this is different from con-noncon)

⭑ i will not write: scat, pedophilia (this includes huge age gaps with a 18-24 reader), fisting, rape, and i won’t write for any mental health issues i personally do not have. i’ll be adding more to this list as i think of more stuff.

⭑ i will not tolerate any hate. including towards me, my work, other writers, fandoms etc. in most cases you’ll be blocked. this is a place for art and passion, this is my safe place and i will not tolerate hate. let’s have fun !

⭑ dni if; homophobic, transphobic / terf, fatphobic, pro israel + anti palestine, pro ed + anti recovery, misogynist, minor, pro pedophilia

⭑ i specialize in smut and angst, i'm capable of writing fluff, but honestly i'd probably request someone else to write your idea for a fluff piece.

⭑ mutuals can ask for socials, please don’t if we aren’t mutuals

⭑ do not copy, translate, repost my work. if something i write inspires you to write something that's okay just give credit !

⭑ if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask !

back on my bullshit and being obsessed with yet another celebrity... I’m watching wang kai in this interview where he essentially talks about his social circle and why he’s perceived as hermit. so the interviewer asks him why he’s not more active, or whether or not he keeps up with his friends and he’s says “honestly I don’t really care about what other people are doing, where they are or who they’re with. I’d rather spend that time focusing on myself and what I’m doing. at this point in time, adding people into your friend’s list (on any social media platform) is no longer about adding real friends. It’s just a form of courtesy and maybe out of the 1-2 hundred or thousands of people you add, there’s a chance you won’t talk to more than 20 of them. If I truly cared about what my good friends are up to, I would message them privately. I can’t expect everyone to agree with me, or judge those who think differently but all I can say is my point of view of why I don’t particularly like having people see my interactions with my friend’s publicly.” I know what he’s saying is not REVOLUTIONARY but it’s nice to see someone that reserved and private. there was also a quote in that interview where it went like “If you don’t scroll through your friend’s feed for one day, you’d feel like you missed a lot. If you don’t scroll through your friend’s feed for a month, you’d realize you didn’t miss anything...” this interview was really nice, and this approach to being a celebrity is very refreshing. he says “I think as an actor I’ve already given more than enough to the audience. I’ve shared enough of my life and activities with everyone, so I don’t think it’s necessary for me to post more of my personal life online” like damn... he’s right. as a parasite I still wanna see it though.

ABOUT ME

Info for the pin, will be updated later:

My name is Luna! I'm 22, pansexual, AMAB non binary. I'm diagnosed Autistic and ADHD, I'm diagnosed with depression, anxiety, and have a hellish amount of brain rot at any given time. This account is for me, myself, and sometimes I. It will have NSF/W content occaisionally, and also just general random posts about what fascinates me at the time. Consistency? Never met them. I'm from europe but will not specify where, and I am NOT looking for an online relationship. I do however reserve the right to wax poetic about craving love and intimacy, and am wont to do so.

DO NOT INTERACT:

-Minors

-Feedee/Feeder blogs -TERFS -Bigots of any kind really tbh -Chasers -Detrans kink blogs (you do you but my dysphoric ass can not) -Edgy "doms" who forget the basics of consent, safety, and comfort. y'all know who you are.

-~-~-~-~-

-I'm generally a switch, I can do whatever my partner wants tbh; their comfort and happiness is always going to be my priority in anything.

-I'll add a kink/turn off list eventually, I'm still working a lot of that stuff out about myself.

-This is a side blog to make myself more comfortable in my own skin. I am a wreck, I want to be less of a wreck. Expect occasional photos of self, a fuck ton of rambling about history at the slightest prompt, and a lot of NSFW thoughts.

-I don't sell and won't send nudes to total strangers. The fact I gotta say that kinda baffles me, but that's life. -Likes and reblogs make my world go around, please feel free to share!

-DMs are open, but be respectful.

For your writer ask meme

10 - 12 - 31 (Maybe you could add some fanfiction too?) - 36

This is going to be a long one

10. Pick an author (or writing friend) to co-write a both with

Honestly, anyone would be cool. Worked with artist in the past for fics but not another writer. I don't know how that would work but I'm more than willing to try.

12. Which story of yours do you like best? why?

I have two, one that is from my fluffier side and the other is from my smutty side.

The first is "Talk Out Your Problems" (https://archiveofourown.org/works/27713879/chapters/67829306), it was one that I took my time with, my own retelling of Teen Wolf, that I'm really proud of but wasn't reserved very well.

The other is "A Hairy Situation" (https://archiveofourown.org/works/44849500). It's one I'm very proud of that showcases my storytelling and smutty side together very well, at least in my opinion.

Those are the two that I love from my own stories.

31. Top five favorite fanfiction in your genre?

Like before I'm going to have two lists since I jump genres. There are so many that I love to reread. These are just two very short lists about what I read, there are many more that I love.

I'll start with the ones that I love to reread that get me off. In no particular order:

"Happy Trails" by ColetheWolf

"Macro" by darktwistedmusings

"Trying to Earn It" by littlesdeath

"Room 27" by Udunie

"Snap" by Ever_Pining (this one is a part of a collection called Prompts & Scribbles if you'd like to read any of these)

The other list is:

The series "Derek's Person" by ash_mcj (it's a WIP but there is a lot to read if you're up for it)

"At Least the Road to Hell is paved, I'm not good with Stairways" by lady emebalia (emebalia) (it has BDSM themes in it so if you don't like that or are uncomfortable with it I'd skip this one)

"To Build a Home" by intothesilentland (this is a Supernatural fic by the way)

"Home" by TheTypewriterGirl (personally I think this is a staple for not only Sterek fanfiction but for Teen Wolf, it's so good)

"DILF" by twentysomething (this is the first Teen Wolf fic I ever read and the reason I have an account on AO3 is so I could reread it)

36. Post a snippet

This is from a story I'm working on with a dark Derek and Stiles pairing. It's already done but I want to tweak it a bit.

###

Stiles didn't know what he was doing as he fell onto his bed only wearing a pair of light pink briefs. He was taking a few calming breaths, trying to calm his franticly beating heart. For months he'd been talking to someone online, exchanging stories and fantasies, jerking off to the ideas, but that was all it was, talking. But a week ago, Stiles got a message that his playmate, Derek, was going to be in town and wanted to meet. But Stiles was a kind, generous, and caring boy, being the son of the sheriff it was practically beaten into his head, and he had a boyfriend, Scott, that he loved very much. He could never do anything that crazy, right?

For the months that he'd been talking to Derek, Stiles was about to do something he'd been too afraid to do, he was able to talk about the true darkness inside of himself. It was a deep pit in his soul that no matter how hard he tried to ignore, it always came back with a vengeance. The many fantasies that Stiles had thought about for years was given a voice and encouragements from someone just as fucked up as him. And Derek also filled a part of that fantasy by being a large intimidating man. They'd talk about Derek kidnapping Stiles, making him into a sex slave, but before doing that, Derek would torture and kill anyone that would get in his way. Stiles jerked off to his partner talking about strangling someone Stiles loved while the man was helpless to do anything but watch. The two would cum at the possibilities and at the end of the day, it was safe, their imagination wasn't hurting anyone for real and the darkness in them was kept at bay. Recently, the talks got darker, Derek describing exactly how he'd kill someone and how that person would look after everything was said and done. But parts of fantasy has a way to become a reality. So after so long talking with Derek, he had proposed a meet up and Stiles foolishly agreed.

Groaning quietly, Stiles rolled onto his stomach and thought about calling Derek up and canceling. He'd been thinking about it for days, sometimes he'd ever delete all his chats with Derek and block him, never to talk to him again.

Just as he finally made the decision to cancel, his phone started to ring. He nervously grabbed it from his bedside table, a picture of him and his boyfriend adding to his guilt, as he thought that Derek had caught wind of him wanting to cancel seconds before. But actually, it was so much worse.

"Hey babe," Scott said, his usual sweet voice used to be a comfort to Stiles but at the moment it just made him sick, "what's up?"

"Hey," his mouth felt dry.

"I was just wondering if you wanted me to pick up something on the way home."

As they were talking, Stiles's phone showed notifications popped up. His stomach twisted and his dick throbbed in his underwear. "No, that's ok, I'll cook. We have lots of things here, stuff I can cook... for dinner." His brain was a mess.

"Alright, I need to get back to work, see to you later."

"I love you," Stiles said, a normal reflex when talking to his boyfriend.

"Love you too," Scott replied, hanging up after that.

Stiles let out a heavy sigh and rolled onto his back again, staring at the ceiling. He rubbed his eyes with his knuckles, the guilt crept through his body for a moment. But the guilt only lasted for a moment, the increasing lust and excitement strained his underwear making him pick up his phone again and see what those notifications were.

They were messages making his dick twitch.

I just got to my hotel. The first message from Derek read. Are you ready for me? I still haven't made up my mind about how I'm going to do it. Maybe we can decide together.

Stiles rubbed his tented underwear. I'm so ready. He typed back. Glancing at the time, 2:39, he typed again. My bf won't be home till 5:30 so we have time to mess around.

A moment later, his phone buzzed. Lots of time to prepare. I'm on my way.
