Spider Prince Virgil from @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors 's series Love and Other Fairytales.

I forgot I could post art here lmao I haven't done much recently but I reread LAOFT over the weekend and I just needed to draw my guy here he's my favourite, what a dude.

Another doodle under the cut which is technically a spoiler for the newest extra in the series too :3

I absolutely loved Lila too <3

[tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors]

i have a little laoft afterlife question but its a bit main character death-y so feel free to ignore!

did everyone know by the time of virgil and logans death that fae and humans shared the same afterlife? or was it a situation where they were the first of their fae friends/family to die and everyone was kind of stuck wondering if they would ever see them again?

i think the not knowing would make it extra extra emotional when they showed up, but also i think itd be funny if they did know and were like "hi bell sorry you died but thank fuck ill see my husbands again"

so i do know the answer to your question, but its spoilers for a fic that is [counting] at least 3 extras away to get the needed intervening information, so im gonna put it under a cut

White followed Patton immediately

Lines from the LAOFT AU that make me feel a lot of emotions

I’m just having a lot of feelings about @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors and their AU so here are some moments that made my heart have Big Feelings. Maybe spoilers below, but usually without too much context?

If you are new to LAOFT, you can find the main narrative here (and it’s where you should start ^u^)

“CONTENT?” Logan demanded, barely registering Patton’s flinch or the rattling of every window in the house, “You expect me to be somehow appeased by this information, as if there is any possible satisfactory answer that would justify such a trade? What could possibly be worth-”

“You!”

-a field of burning lavender [but really wishing i could just do that entire chapter/fic

“My brother belongs here. He belongs with me, and our parents, and his friends,” Thomas said, “And if the fae are owed anything it’s the baby they bought in the first place,”

Logan finally found his voice.

“Falsehood!”

-a blade buried in wet soil

“You don’t have to do that,” said Virgil quietly, “You don’t- I love you. I want to help,”

-Pitfall 

“Righ-” Logan’s voice wheezed out and cut off, like someone had squeezed him around the throat.

-Loyalty, Ch. 2

“No,” said Virgil, and he sounded on the edge of tears, “No, Roman, never. I wouldn’t- I would never do that, hurt you because I was upset, never, I swear,”

-Mine 

“You gave it to me,” said Virgil weakly. “I didn’t- Fuck,”

-Blood

And then Roman spoke, murmuring the words of loyalty into Virgil’s mouth. As he did Virgil shivered, pulling him closer, until the last syllable ended on a gasp when Virgil’s teeth grazed against Roman’s neck.

And then Virgil uttered another back, acceptance and promise and protection in one, and he couldn’t help the awe and joy and gratitude his voice was echoing with. He barely finished it before Roman pushed Virgil to his back, kissing the star struck smile off his face.

-Charming [but really that whole knight scene okay oof]

“Remember that we love you,” he said softly.

-Speak

slkdjfksldfj LAOFT is so good, y’all, and I just had to revisit some of these moments. There are even more. But alas, I must go to sleep. <3

“Doesn’t matter. I didn’t swear allegiance to ‘the’ king. Just mine. Funny how that works. Although I will thank you for putting him to sleep finally. I haven’t been out in days, he’s been too anxious to sleep. I was starting to feel a bit cooped up.”

[sleepless-in-starbucks]

Entire correction list for the LAOFT post: May is Roman's grandma, not his mum (she did raise him though). Virgil is Spider Prince, not Spider King. Patton's dad saved White, not his mum. Logan isn't a selkie, he's a Seelie. And you'll be glad to hear: I don't think there was enough left of Durant's body to bury. Other than that I think you were right on all counts.

*Squinting* Y’know, I remember the term ‘unseelie’ and yet I go and write selkie. I mean... what did I expect from myself

Also that’s it? I only got like four? five? things wrong????

I’m proud of me. That or the fae that I must have angered into forcing me to write it correctly because oooooh boy I expected a lot more mistakes

But I’ll take it! Thanks for the clarifications!!

also SUCK IT SERPENT MONSTER ENJOY NOT HAVING ENOUGH BODY TO TRULY BURY

Emperors as Faery courts lets go

Scott; winter, obviously- he is literally the eternal winter

Xornoth (yes I know he’s not an emperor I just don’t care); summer

Shubble; late-esk Spring

Katherine; Spring

Pearl; autum. and I mean freaking queen of the autumns

Joel; early summer

Jimmy; somewhere around like, late summer I think. honestly not too sure on this one but I’m sticking to late summer

Lizzie; late spring/early summer aka queen’a the seelie

Joey; early autumn that acts like a late autumn

Gem; early spring

Sausage; mid autumn

Fwhip; late autumn

Pixl; he’s got series summer vibes, but also fall vibes. but he lives in the desert so I’m going summer

(also this does have some Seelie vs. Unseelie elf brothers but honestly that’s basically canon)

yes I do like to imagine that Scott, Pearl, Katherine, and Xornoth have meetings and stuff and now I need to write some headcanons for this because it’s definitely chaotic

[favoriteginger]

OK I HAVE THOUGHTS Y'ALL

So idk if anyone here has read Love and Other Fairy Tales by @/tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors (which is an absolutely fantastic fanfic, I definitely recommend it just. so much) but in it, one of the characters makes a deal with the fae, promising them 10 years of his life. And he fulfills this promise by going and serving them at night, kind of as an alternate version of himself.

Now, how does this relate to Empires?

So Sausage's alternate form, when he's like possessed or whatever, right? He said he needed to lay down for a bit after his meeting with Pearl, before regular Sausage came back. What if he has a similar situation here, where his "evil" self is just like. more corrupted or something, physically separated from his normal self by sleep?

Sometimes he's having a lazy morning and suddenly it's evening. He starts to find some of his items moved around, stuff in his inventory that he swore he hadn't had there before. One night, he surrounds himself in obsidian before he does to bed and he wakes up under one of his trees, his pickaxe low on durability and obsidian shards in his hair.

Me: *Infodumps about my favorite AU in the LAOFT server*

People who literally joined for the LAOFT stuff because that's the AU the server's for: This sounds very interesting, can we know more?

Me: !!! :D *Continues to infodump, avoiding as many spoilers as I can*

[tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors]

ooh wait im interested in the orange side spots uve left open now if its not too spoiler-y to share 👀👀

LAOFT

Cousin from Remus's birth grove (Affectionate)

relative from remus or io's birth grove (deragatory)

least likely, but a scrapped secondary antagonist from the main story, who i would rework into a sort of recurring annoying trickster in the Kittens+ era of the timeline

Pieces

guy who widows thomas in like 10 in-universe years

various miscellaneous characters from the long-form political drama that takes place after Feast of the Turning

RHOYH

replacement goldfish for remus

emile's (who is colorblind) boyfriend, who is deceiving him about them being soulmates, which we will know because remy is his actual soulmate

Cat!sides

i dont have specific plot plans for him but ive done about a billion cat dress up games designing him in various ways

Ping verse

floated a lot of ideas, most of them antagonistic, but my favorite is him becoming the new official clearfield city keeper when LMP defect, which could go either way for if he's an antag or not

[today-only-happens-once]

So About LAOFT??

I am having all the feels and it’s all @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors‘s fault (in the absolute best kind of way) so I’m here to rant about it. 

So I just spent the last two nights churning through the Love and Other Fairytales main storyline (future nights will def be spent reading the supporting one-shots/fics that are tied to it). 

Tl;dr: I word-vomit about why LAOFT is a work of absolute art because I needed to ramble out my many feelings. Spoilers below. 

 I did my best to leave kudos on each one as I went, but I’m also certain I probably missed some in my excitement to rush to read the next section. Also, RIP to the comments I sent to them sporadically as I went where it’s mostly me just time-stamping my progress and then keysmashing. 

I have MANY thoughts. First of all, the prose??!?! Is hecking gorgeous?? I mean, its such a beautifully told story. The writing of it is exquisite. I knew I was gonna fall down this rabbit hole with the very first line: “ Ask three people how to get to Wickhills, Ohio, and you will get four different answers.” It’s just.... yeah. The prose is beautiful and at times, vaguely ethereal, and that builds into the tones of themes and setting so well (it’s abut fae, after all) that I leaves me speechless. 

The characters!! I have always been very skeptical of fics that heavily feature OCs, but there are also always fics that make me reconsider that reading bias and this is definitely one of them. Mamaw was always an absolute joy in any chapter. Plus, Tulip’s OCs are dynamic and interesting and unique from each other, and they weave into the lore so well that I’m just. Catch me waving a “Mamaw’s #1″ flag over here in the corner okay. (Also fan of Greta, tbh)

The story construction?? I COULD RANT FOREVER ABOUT THEIR STORY CONSTRUCTION. Some of the twists I had such a verbal/physical reaction to my mom was like “are you okay??” It’s a story that welcomes theories and hypothesizing as you go, but be ready to get surprised several times (at least that was my case). But the twists and turns in the plot never once felt cheap or out of left field. They’d always been there, since the beginning of the story, and that’s a mark of truly terrific writing. Not to mention, the development of lore and the way it’s interwoven into the very fabric of the setting and plot development-- oof. It’s amazing and beautiful to read.

Okay okay I talked about OC characters but also!! The character development of the main cast of characters was brilliantly executed. I think I’m especially soft for Roman and Logan in this fic, but all of them get strong and gradual development--both independent of their romantic relationship that is budding but also at times, resulting from it. And I love that. It’s not super often that we see complex character development in fics, and I love how natural the progression feels throughout.

ALSO! Speaking of characters. I loved some of the canon stuff that Tulip was able to weave into their story in very different ways. Deceit’s disguising himself as other Sides, being one example. Roman’s recklessness being another. Logan’s fear of not being heard. Virgil’s “Tempest Tongue” thing and the name thing. Patton hiding his negative emotions. It was beautifully done. Truly. 

And also, just general emotions. Tulip writes emotions--especially when they’ve reached a climax--so well it leaves me feeling so much alongside them. No where does this shine brighter, in my opinion, than in “a field of burning lavender”. The build-up of Logan pressuring an answer out of Roman and Roman finally telling him... the tension was paced so well and described in a way where I could feel it and also the very different emotions that immediately followed it with Logan on the porch.... I LOVE that kind of build-release dynamic in fics and Tulip had this build-up coming for so long, and then ramped it up with well-paced dialogue and body-language cues and it’s. It’s one of my favorite parts of this fic. 

Other moments that were my faves in no particular order:

Thomas coming down stairs and being like “yeah sure let’s send back what we took from the fey who wants to help me pack” I just. I LOVED protective!bro Thomas so much and I especially adored it coming back in full-force after we hadn’t seen too much of him in a while. 

The lil group hug where Roman and Virgil made a shelter of sorts over the other two it just made me v soft

“Virgil, catch!” WHAT AN ICONIC MOMENT That progression of events will probably be forever seared into my mind 

Roman punching the kid that dumped the stuff on Logan and then staying with him until he had finished counting them. Especially Logan being aware of his surroundings and unable to leave, and his little “you didn’t have to stay”.... I just loved it. It was such a big moment for their friendship/relationship

Realizing that monster in the woods was Greta. That plot twist I didn’t see coming but as soon as they said it, I was like “that makes TOTAL SENSE?!?!”

Logan losing it on Roman after the whole fairy wine thing, I just love protective!Logan okay

The kisses!! All of them!! LAMP is sailing and I’m all on board.

Thank you so, so much for all the hard work you put into this universe, Tulip. I’m truly grateful and awed by your dedication and clear passion. I can’t wait to read more of this universe!

Screw it

LAOFT from someone who’s never read the main story

100% of my knowledge of LAOFT comes from askes of @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors that I read and the one-shots I’ve read. Some of it will be right. Most of it will be wrong. Hopefully all of it is a hilarious, sleep-deprived mess.

Since there’s a good chance I’ve got at least a few bits of plot right there are some spoilers herein so beware weary traveler who really should just skip past this mess of a post.

Sleep-deprivation baby let’s go.

The basics:

Setting: Wickhills

Creepy fae town

I think it’s based in Ohio. Maybe. Probably. idk

Tho if you came here for exacts buddy oh boy I have bad news for you

I digress

I think the description of the first part says smth about the people not minding having their things stolen

Except for uh I think her name’s May Gage

Ro’s Mom?

I think

NO WAIT

Description has to do with Dot Sanders

Mum of Lo and Tho

Will talk about them later but I just had to get that straight first

Even tho there’s, like, nothing straight in this AU

I think the main plot problems arise, originally, due to miscommunication

Or lack of communication

All I know is in the drunk history of Wickhills that I barely remember there was a mention of them not communicating and that basically dooming them

And y’all... lots going on around here

Lots

So uh we’re jumping into characters now here I go

Virgil Lastnamesmth: 

No I don’t know his last name and no I’m not going to learn it just for this post

It’s Lastnamesmth now deal with it

I think he’s Spider King

Or smth like that

He rules the forest

After he gets out of his magic coma

He’s in that for a long time tho

100 years I think?

And uh I think Durant did it to him but we’ll talk about the devil in a snake suit later

He got put in a protective coffin by... I want to say Greta but ngl I know nothing about Greta. 

She may be one of Vi’s sisters

He has a LOT of siblings actually

Many are spider sisters I think

And I think Elliot and Thomas are also his siblings in a way

Maybe

idk

Again don’t trust what you read when it comes from me peeps

But he’s super powerful

And I think he’s in the winter court

Whatever that means

I know courts exist for the seasons, and I’m reasonably sure Virgil’s is Winter, but that’s about it

He has magic but I don’t think he used it in any of the one-shots I read so what do I know

Well he does in one

That one where Logan gives his full name

That one was good I quite liked it

Well actually they’re all good I like all the ones I read

Back to Virgil

Hates parties which is a mood

He has to host them tho

Being Spider King is cool other than that bit I gather

And the part where the court gossips about you but oh well I suppose

I believe he’s autistic too

Or at least written with a lot of autistic traits

Is that how you say it? Autistic traits sounds wrong

Can fae be autistic? Or just like it?

Y’know what fuck it fae can be autistic and the only one allowed to @ me about that is the author screw off haters

I think the rest of what I have to say can live in the misc section

NEXT CHARACTER

Roman Gage:

I’d like to start with I love him and every time I think about what little I know of his backstory I want to cry

idk how he ended up in an abusive relationship but I know he did

And he’s such a good boi

He doesn’t DESERVE IT GODSDAMNIT

Only Vi would get me this emotionally invested in characters I only sorta know I swear

So yeah

Current Ro still has some problems with that

For very obvious reasons

And yet!

He is a gentleman and a knight and a champion and a prince

Yes that is a direct reference at that one one-shot shhh

His family is also one of witches right

He has a familiar 

Tis a cat named Dizzy

I only know about Dizzy from like one fic tho so that’s all I can say about her

Dizzy can talk too in case that wasn’t clear

He made a potion in the microwave despite knowing that he probably shouldn’t and I think that’s a good summary of his character

I think he found Virgil first

At the very least he did find Virgil

He’s a human who found a hot dude in a glass case crawling with creepy crawlies and thought ‘ah yes the perfect place to spend all my time’

Sounds legit I’m sure

I don’t know how this lead to him in a bad place with the motherfucker also called the Serpent King

But it did

But in the end he got glass coffin boy and two others so at least he’s got that going for him

We move on once more!

Patton Uh what’s Remy’s last name again I think it’s that:

Or it isn’t

I said it before I’ll say it again:

Looking up info for this defeats the point

Deal with my horrible misinformation

He got a gift from White!

I believe this is because his Mum saved her or something

The problem?

Uh

The gift is also a curse

Because while it’s incredibly written that’s the cliché folks

People have to do what ever he ‘orders’

Basically anything that techincally demands something from the other

Including things like ‘stop’ which is like one-hit KO murder word

Patton had a nightmare about that

That was a fun one-shot

Though if you could just like kill people on accident I guess I’d have nightmares ‘bout it too

He’s the other human of the trio plus one

No I don’t remember the word for a group of four people and no I’m not going to look it up

A Professional Cuddler according to that one fic where the description’s like ‘Patton thinks he’s got the best seat in the house’ or whatever

There’s one fic where Emile help him put make-up on

Wowsers

That fic was fun to read because he flustered ALL his bfs

No question

What else what else

I think he’s got a bodyguard

Named... Bell???

Maybe???

Okay I think that’s most of my Pat knowledge

ONWARDS

Logan (Berry) Sanders:

Yes adding the Berry was very important

It’s a huge part of that name fic

And I like it so

Deal with it

He’s a fae

I believe a changling to be exact

And a selkie

He’s... spring court...?

He was replaced for Thomas in typical Changling fashion

But then Thomas came back (I think Dot got Tho back idk) and suddenly he had a brother

He has nature magic of some form

But his best power is his flower power

He can’t control it and I love it so much

I don’t even KNOW what each type of flower appearing means 9 out of 10 times but that doesn’t make me any less happy about it

*Sigh*

I wish I sprouted flowers at random...

I think he’s also autistic

He and Virgil occasionally bond over that it’s sweet

Like with the painted nails tap tap tapping

Or the singing walls

I know something happened to him

Something relating to something stupid Ro did

I think that’s the stupid thing that got Ro forced to be with the dick that is Deceit in this

But I honestly don’t know what happened to Logan

Hmph

He can be a nervous boi

That fic where he tried to say I love you with his notecards?

Love that one

...Twenty-five percent of this is just me randomly complimenting Vi’s one-shots ain’t it

Huh

Oh well

No regrets

I just realized I use ‘Vi’ for Violet and Virgil interchangeably

That may be problematic but screw off if you think I’m going to change anything

That’s too much effort

BACK TO LOGAN

He has a honey problem from that one fic I read

Where he gets real sappy about his bfs to Thomas

Not like a bad problem

Just a ‘maybe he should stop drinking it if he wants to pretend he has dignity’ problem

Okey-dokie I’m moving on to his bro now

Thomas (Bug) Sanders:

Lo’s incredible brother

And when I say incredible I mean it

Very nice

Will squish Logan when needed

Actually will squish anyone when needed

He has a Squish Instinct

Also has Brother Instinct and no it’s not the Cain Instinct

It’s the opposite

Will Fight if you try to hurt Lo from what I can tell

I think he also had a monster in his head

The monster has a longer name but I can’t spell it so I won’t try

This fact is based on One (1) one-shot where he has a weird freak out

That’s also the fic I base my belief that he’s somehow Virgil’s brother on

But no promises

The fic starts with italics and bolded lines interchanging

I don’t remember the name tho

If you haven’t already figured out I’m not going to look it up you’re even more sleep-deprived then I am

But yeah Thomas is great

Teases Lo about his crushes like a good bro

Helps Lo when he’s panicking or freaking out or something

Even when Lo’s at college

I don’t know as much about Tho so let’s leave it there

Onto the Monster

Durant (is that his name idk) Monsterunworthyoflove: 

His last name is Monsterunworthyoflove because that’s what he is

I know almost nothing about him actually

They call him ‘he’ a lot because I think trigger reasons

But honestly he also doesn’t deserve to have his name spoken

He was the Snake King

Maybe Serpent King 

Eh idc

I believe he put Virgil in magic coma to rule as King

I think they were brothers but idk

HE SUCKS

I think he’s dead

I wish I knew how or by who’s hand but he is

He got a coffin in the ground which I think if unfair

Let the worms devour his flesh and let me make his bones into my furniture

I am a part of the Kill Durant Again squad only because I missed my chance to kill him first

Like I said I know little about him

But he put the abusive in Roman’s abusive relationship so honestly fuck him to Hell and back and then do it again for good measure

Every time I read a scene with Ro being uncomfy because of him

I want to strangle him

I fucking mime the motions

Violet honestly props on making such a hate-able character

I could talk about him more because I do know a few other things

But honestly the fact he’s not real and my dream to choke him slowly is therefore impossible makes my skin crawl

I hate him so much it’s not healthy so we’re moving on

To minor characters!

Minor Characters:

As in characters I know very little about

I guess they could be vital characters

REMY

MY BOI

I know he’s a classic badboy who will die if Emile kisses him and I love him

Also he’s super smart with his moonshine and I’m so proud

I love him so so so so much and I barely know him

Good job Violet you wrote him well and I love you

Emile is also great

Remy has protected him for wearing skirts because Rem’s a good boy and he’s RIGHT

Emile feels bad for treating Patton bad in the past I think

Hence that one make-up session

Emile also crushes on Remy hard the remile in this AU is on point man

Elliot exists

I think they’re Virgil’s sibling. Somehow. Maybe

I read one one-shot that focused on their relationship with Vi and that’s all I know about them

Mawmaw (Mamaw? mawma? I’mma just call her May. If she’s May. I think she’s May) is Ro’s Mom.

Also a witch I think

Really tough but she cares

Dot is super nice

She’s Lo and Tho’s Mum I think

I don’t remember the one-shots with her in them well but she’s always sweet

Okay there’s this one character who’s name starts with an E

I think she’s Logan biological mom

Logan cut a knot he had with her or smth

Apparently she’s awful and Vi would kill her but it would have a bad mental effect on Ro for... some reason

he got pale when the idea was brought up idk

I would have thrown her in forever prison if I couldn’t kill her but that’s just me

She placed a curse on Lo that stopped him from leaving Wickhills I think

Or smth

Lo broke the curse tho so what does it matter

Linda is the LAMP’s daughter??? I think???

I... haven’t actually read the fics she’s in so idk

But people really seem to love her so that’s neat

Out of minor characters so we progress to my fav part about the series

Gay bois:

Aka the LAMP gang

They’re so gay guys

The gayest gays

I like to think I can write decent gays

But these???????

They barely have to look at each other before they’re dead, murdered, killed by the mere beauty of one of the others

I LIVE FOR IT

In the one-shots I’ve read they’re either completely 100% fluffy gays

Or gays helping each other with one Trauma or another

But they still end up gay-ing over each other in the end

and the KISSING

as an aroace I generally find kisses meh or ew

But these gays

All they want to do is kiss

Sometimes it’s tender and sweet and loving

More often than not tho the kisses are like

‘If one of you didn’t manage to barely hold onto a brain cell throughout the gay you’d be fucking in public’

I am repulsed to write that sentence but it’s TRUE

...I think

Note: idek the difference between passionate but just passionate kisses and passionate about to get steamy kisses

Because you know

aroace

But the main point:

I find kisses meh

But these gays very clearly illustrate how beautiful kisses can be and I think that’s wonderful

Also I just generally love LAMP and this is good good LAMP A++ Vi

They’re so gay and loving and protective of each other

They really deserved their own category

Onto the final section

Misc:

Aka stuff that doesn’t fit in the other sections and/or stuff that did fit in the other sections but I forgot about it and am too lazy to put where it belongs

I realize now that Remy and Pat do not have the same last name

They’re not brothers (I don’t think......)

Does Pat’s last name start with a W?

That sounds right

Fug me if I know what Rem’s last name is tho

Where do they all live

I thought only Vi lived in fae land

But I think Pat may live there too

But Lo lives in non-fae land???

idk

Also fae land is called fairyland and I can’t tell if that’s it’s actual name or the name one of the Bois gave it jokinly

Because if fairyland is it’s serious name, that’s hilarious

No shade Violet I’m just easily amused

Y’know I always forget how young these bois are

Then I remember Lo’s not even 18 by the time the after main plot one-shots come in to play

So like

Damn son they young

I feel double bad for all of them

Triple bad for Ro- the Serpent King’s head will be mine I swEAR

I think Ro’s been a knight twice

Tho if you ask me he’s only been a knight once

Because I refuse to associate him in any way to the dick that is Durant if I can help it so he’s only ever been Vi’s knight suck it

Apparently like almost all of Wickhills hate the Sander bois

Probably the LAMP crew too idk

What I mean to say is despite how desperate I want to live there a lot of Wickhills’s residents are jerkwads

I think I saw a post where Lo can do photosynthesis and idk if it’s a shitpost or not but in this mess of a post I have decided it is canon

Mainly because that’s cool and I would like to do photosynthesis

A new one-shot I didn’t read has sparked a lot of askes about a Matt

I believe this man to be Pat’s father

But I can make no promises as to the accuracy of this belief

Did Linda come out of a tree?

idk why but I feel like she did

That’s weird man

How do you come out of a tree

(me @ me: ‘you could... you could read the fic and find out’

So turns out I can shut the hell up

I am a bitch who understands nothing)

And I have ONCE MORE gotten off track oof

My favorite part of reading LAOFT is all the fae knowledge I learn

Really has sparked my interest in fae

Even if I’ll never know enough to do anything with it asfsdfb

Plus apparently Vi just sprinkles in her own fae lore here and there

Which is super cool

But also means if I tried to write something I’m quite sure someone would be like ‘umm this isn’t true’ and I would feel played

Also what is up with Vi and Lo and rainfall

In that one fic where they hide in a tree and Logan senses a raindrop

His skin breaks open and sews itself together????

wtf????

So confusion

But hey guess whose bitch’s fault that is

*finger guns at a mirror*

ELDRITCH MONSTORITY

That’s not at ALL how you spell it but that’s it that’s the thing that was in Thomas’s head

Go me for remembering it

Fae land has a lot of customs and I know very few of them

Tho I do adore that one Flirt fic

Poor poor Virgil

Oh yeah Logan can make these super cool bushes

I know he used one rose bush when fighting someone who’s name started with a Mrs/Miss

Yes I know the first name wasn’t actually Mrs/Miss

But all I know of her name is Mrs/Miss something

And he used another bush against some idiot of a fae who grabbed Patton

By the way go protective Lo go

Like they can all get crazy protective of each other and I LIVE for it

ROMAN HAD HIS MEMORIES SPLIT UP??????

I mean I knew about a Night Roman and a Day Roman but I thought that was

like

a metaphor 

Like Roman acted differently during the night because he was stuck with a monster whom I shall revive simply to kill again

And he was trying to be separate from that person??

Or something like that

But NOPE

Serpent King is a Bastard of a being and I would happily crush his wind pipe beneath my foot

I hope the most amusing part of this sleep-drunk post is my different names for Durant the Dead Bitch because I am having fun insulting him

Okay listen peeps that is not even CLOSE to everything about this series but I wrote this over a couple of days, and my memory of what has been written and hasn’t been written is nonexistent, and if you think I’m rereading this to edit, you’re a fool (no offense) so like. We’re just gonna do a wrap-up summary and call it good.

Summary: Gay fae messes who should figure out the value of communication get themselves in a LOT of shit because of their lack of said communication.

Also, final apologies to Violet, because LAOFT has incredibly deep, rich, intricate lore and my response to this lore is to grossly misrepresent it and also write this while I’m in the constant state of being sleep-deprived, and more or less acting like I’m drunk or smth

So uh. I hope this was amusing.

@princeanxious is a fantastic writer and artist! his Lost Guardian au is a favorite of mine and ive reread it like 5 times already. he also has a comic where virgil is in a coma thats really cool! the blogs for them are @thelostguardianau and @tss-coma-au

@stormcrawler75 has quite a few oneshots and chapter fics that i Adore! my current favorite is Wooing a Light Side! its about an oc Pride (who is the dragon witch) and virgil and im So Soft for them.

@enby-phoenix does a lot of g/t stuff if you like that (i know i do) and i end up rereading a lot of their stuff multiple times! their How Easy You Are To Knead is easily one of my favorites

@teacupfulofstarshine has an AMAZING analogical au where logan is a merman and virgil is a researcher who rescues him after hes caught in a net and beached

@fangirltothefullest is another who does both art and fics and her stuff is FANTASTIC! ive read her fae patton au and loved it! i havent read primrose promise yet but its on my list of things to read and ive heard its also amazing!

oh and @tulipscomeinallsortsofcolors has the CUTEST SADDEST AU called Love and Other Fairytales (laoft) where logan and virgil are fae and roman and patton are humans but Special. i dont want to go too deep into it bc Spoilers but yall. i cried

OH OH AND @delimeful!!!! he also does g/t stuff and his fic Watch It Burn And Rust is SO COOL!!! virgil is a human who got abducted by aliens and patton/roman/logan are aliens (but not the ones that kidnapped him)

Hey fanders!

With the new episode, like many of us, I’ve started craving fanfic. And it’s been long enough, and my memory is bad enough, that basically the only writers i remember are Randomslasher and Altruistic-Skittles.

I know I’m not alone, and I know a lot of content creators have a hard time getting recognition and stuff, so i think this might be a good medium.

So basically, just, reblog this with tags, and if youre a writer yourself, just reblog with a comment. Something identifying you as a writer. Because i AM going to ask that if your yourself dont write fic, or arent tagging someone, to please keep comments and things in the tags. Unless, of course, something needs to be brought to my attention. Also, i AM counting comics among fanfic, because, while not the same thing, they are very similar at their core.

I know, realistically, that this probably isnt going to go that well, but if nothing else, i do think that its a good idea.

So, please, identify as many writers as possible. If you only know one or two off the top of your head? Perfectly fine. If you can’t think of any? Perfectly fine. Just reblog as much as you can, and lets get our creators some traffic!

Ill start off by tagging the ones i mentioned

@randomsnippets @altruistic-skittles

(Ps, in case it wasnt clear enough, this is specifically for the Thomas Sanders Sanders Sides fandom)

(Also, i tagged randomsnippets instead of randomslasher because snippets is where LJ posts their writing)
