Tease Tidbit Tuesday 🩹

heey~ guess what? today i was tinkering with one of my many messy little bucktommy wips and since it's been quite a while since i managed to write anything coherent, i thought i'd share a little snippet.

Something was off and Buck couldn’t quite pinpoint what exactly… for a moment, he thought it was just his own jitters, until Tommy finally, graciously ended the suspense and dropped the metaphorical bomb, just as Buck stuffed the first few bites into his mouth to try and distract himself. After that, not much of his appetite was hanging around. “So, this was on Tuesday?” He asked, trying to keep his tone even, but only marginally managing to keep the tension from bubbling over. “Yes.” “And I’m only hearing about this now because…” “Because I didn’t wanna tell you over the phone.” “That’s fair.” Buck huffed, uneasy. “He asked if I was interested.” Tommy continued, audibly losing the same battle to keep his voice level and calm that Buck was failing to win himself. “And you said…” Tommy sighed, a light frown between his brows clearly signaling his slowly building frustration. Good, Buck thought, that makes the two of us. “And I said I’d consider it.” “As in?” “As in, I would think about it.” “About moving to Arizona.” Buck clicked his tongue with a sharp pop. “Evan.” “No, no, it’s okay, I-I get it, it’s uh, it's a big deal.” “It is a big deal.” Buck exhaled slowly, only hanging onto his composure by a thin thread. He hated saying those words, but having them repeated back to him? Somehow that felt even worse.

RULES

Last updated on the 18th of September 2024

Check also my fandoms + request types I write to aid you with requesting!

I DO NOT WRITE (READ!!!!)

(There's a lot on this list, so please take time to read this through)

– MY MOST IMPORTANT RULE: I do NOT write EXPLICIT SMUT/NSFW! References, mentions etc are ok in some cases, but I DO NOT WRITE THE ACTUAL ACT.

Written with big letters because this is by far my most broken rule.

– "Can you write one for x, plot is up to you"-requests. Check this post for request types I do and how to request them.

– Real person fiction (actors, bands, youtubers x reader fics. Historical people in media like Assassin's Creed are ok, as long as their story is largely fictionalised in that media)

– I'm very, VERY rarely comfortable with any kind of pregnancy fics with any character, so I've decided to quit writing those + because there was constant misunderstandings about my boundaries with pregnancy fics because there was a lot of those. Only certain characters were valid for those + I don't feel comfortable to write about reader showing.

During this time of me writing reader inserts (since 2018), only three pregnant!reader requests have gotten through. And also, there's a bunch of characters I don't feel comfortable writing even discussing having a (biological) baby. Fics where the baby has already been born/the character and reader have a child are okay, though I prioritise writing adopted children unless the nature of the request demands otherwise, and with some characters I only write adopted children, like with Kaz Brekker.

– Non-reader insert requests. Canon pairing fics are ok, but reader has to be involved and they have to be one of the MC's. (Reader planning how to set up Kaz Brekker and Inej Ghafa for a date for example) Unfortunately, fanon (non-canon) pairings aren't allowed because of clarity.

– Related to the rule above, I do not write x readers for canon characters who are fanon-built. I know they have risen in popularity within recent years. What I mean by this is, we don't know much anything about them in canon, we don't see them in canon, we only know their name, how they look like and maybe one or two things they did/who they are. We don't hear them talk, we have nothing concrete to show what they are like in canon, but fandom has built them a personality most consider as canon. An example of this kind of character is Nines from Detroit: Become Human.

– Double requests (requests with a detailed plot that you've already sent to someone else, requesting Steve Harrington and you having a picnic date is an ok request but Steve Harrington and you having a picnic date and during that he proposes and throws you into a lake afterwards for fun is not)

– Related to the rule above, please do not take prompts from other prompt lists than mine. I don't want to be accused of being a thief if someone recognises their prompt.

– Also, please do NOT use AI to generate prompts, and also do not train any kind of AI with my fics.

– I do not write specified male readers, because I don't feel capable enough, nor really comfortable either. I do write gn reader though, and gn reader is my default unless female reader is requested. (The requester either saying "character x female reader please, where [scenario]" or referring to reader as she/her)

– I do not write specified trans readers (meaning scenarios where reader is taking their first shot, telling about being trans etc) because I'm not trans nor I know any trans people and I don't want to accidentally offend anyone. (Been there already and it resulted into a huuuuge drama that lasted for weeks so...)

– I do not do romantic fics between a minor and an adult.

– I no longer write appearance specific pieces unless it (height, body type, hairstyle, ethinicity etc) plays a major part of the fic. One scene/a side mention in your oneshot request about reader's physical attribute isn't enough for me to include it and I will ignore those parts of your request. A major part means fics like you being insecure of your birthmark that covers half of your face and a character comforts you about it, those are ok. In other words, the plot has to build itself around that appearance specific trait.

– Related to the rule above: I no longer write fics where reader is character's biological sibling/child/relative, so if you request a sibling!fic, reader is always adopted (even if I won't state it directly). This also means I no longer write fics where reader is the characters twin sibling. Making biological relative!readers automatically mean that reader has certain physical attributes, no matter how vague I try to be about their appearance.

– Yandere/tsundere etc

– Omegaverse

– Big age gaps

– Poly fics

– Crossover fics

– Doing drugs + smoking (drinking is ok)

– Soulmate AU

– Hanahaki AU

��� Dark fics (Dead Dove Do Not Eat etc)

– Dark!characters (this partly includes dark!reader, ask for specifics)

– I also won’t write your request if you’re being rude to me when you request. (Requests like "character x reader, scenario" will get turned down, maybe learn to request like "Hi, character x reader, scenario, please and thank you?")

I AM WILLING TO WRITE

– People with mental disabilities

- Autism (I'm autistic myself)

- People with some physical disabilities (blindness, deafness, chronic migraines, having to use a wheelchair, feel free to ask about your disability and maybe tell about it a little if it's not a common one)

– Female and gender-neutral readers (I write the reader as gender neutral by default unless you state you want a female reader or regard to the reader with she/her pronouns in your request)

- Platonic fics

- Canon ship fics, as long as reader is included in the fic as one of the main characters (like reader being an adopted sibling of one of them, their (adopted) child, is matchmaking them, etc)

– Romantic female character x female reader

– I’m willing to write some AU’s (modern + real-life AU, in which they’re just ordinary people, are the ones I’m most comfortable with).

GENERAL ABOUT REQUESTING

Be polite. A some kind of thank you would be nice. (Requesting “imagine having a picnic with Bucky Barnes from MCU” has a very different tone from “Hi! Could you write a gif imagine? Imagine having a picnic with Bucky Barnes (from MCU), thank you so much!!”)

Also if you’re new to my/any writing blog, READ THE RULES BEFORE REQUESTING! People are constantly asking smut fics from me and while I understand that smut is something most writers seem to do and people are expecting those from me too, you have to understand that not everyone is comfortable with everything. So please read AT LEAST the “I don’t write”-section from my rules before requesting so I don’t have to state it over and over and over again how I don’t write about this or that.

If the request is very OOC for the character, I most likely will turn it down. I just can't see (for example) Kaz Brekker, Victor Zsasz or Ledger!Joker being all fluffy, cute and cuddly and feel like I would turn the character upside down if I did that and I don't like reading fics like that, so I don't write them either. This also applies to certain prompts in my prompt list. If I can't make it work or figure a way around it, I'll give up with it.

Make sure I’ll know who are you requesting for. Like some characters are namesakes when movies/serieses have prequels/remakes for example, and it may cause a misunderstanding when you request a fic and I write the fic for the "wrong" version.

Make sure I know what you want. If you send a “Could you do a Bucky Barnes x reader where Bucky loses a bet with Steve and has to confess his feelings to the reader?” I know that you’re most likely meaning a gif imagine, but if you send a “Jealous Steve Harrington please?” I don’t really know what do you want, a gif imagine? Headcanons? If you want a gif imagine, please tell me a scenario, something to work with. If you want headcanons, please send me “Jealous Steve Harrington x reader headcanons please?”

As a continuation to the last rule: you have to state a plot/a scenario when doing a gif imagine request, I won’t take requests like “could you do a character x reader? Thanks!” Also headcanons and preferences need a topic, check my requesting guide if you need help! Prompt fics don’t need a plot and in fact, I don’t even take plots with prompt fics. They’re supposed to be surprises for you.

Send multiple requests in separate asks!! I can manage them better that way + I link everything straight to the asks and I can’t do that if there are multiple requests stuffed in the same ask.

If you’re unsure about what fandoms I write for, check my fandoms list before requesting. There are also some characters listed for who I won’t write for.

Do not try to guilt-trip me into writing your request. All requests just won’t inspire me, and it’s just unpleasant to force myself to write requests that just don’t inspire me one bit.

I only write reader inserts, so keep that in mind when requesting. So I do not write ships or just regular fanfics, and I do not write for your OC’s, and I also won’t replace Y/N with your name, unless it's a birthday gift/a self ship and you're my friend.

Do not spam different writers with exactly same requests, with same characters and same scenarios UNLESS they’re comfortable with it. Otherwise it might make us feel really uncomfortable and like we’re plagiarizing each other. Just please, don’t do that. Dating headcanons are ok because we can write them more freely but if you state a certain situation and ask us to write about Steve Harrington realising he's in love with you after you save him from the Mind Flayer, you state how the request should go and therefore all the imagines you get are very similar. Pick one writer per request and be patient. We’re not machines. Thank you. If I see a request has been written and is out there and I have not written it yet, I’m publishing the ask with a link to that fic. But if I have written it, I’m gonna publish it with a few edits which hopefully would make it different from that other request but I’m also gonna be upset and anxious about that + it means extra work for me so please don’t send requests like that.

You may spam me with requests!! 5 or 50, all gif imagines, headcanons, preferences or prompt drabbles, go wild if you feel like it. But please remember I do my requests in order that's based on my own current inspiration and motivation for an idea or a character, so there's still no schedule for it.

DO NOT REPOST (repost: copypasting my fic into a new post/using parts of my fics in your own fics, not the same as reblogging, which is sharing my fics from my blog directly) MY WORK INTO OTHER PLATFORMS OR ON YOUR OWN BLOG. MY TUMBLR, AO3 AND WATTPAD ARE THE ONLY PLACES MY FICS ARE POSTED TO! If you’re posting/have posted my work somewhere, delete it right now. I don’t understand why would you repost my or anyone’s works somewhere when you could also reblog it into your own blog or tell our usernames and recommend us to people, list your fave imagines from us so people could check them out.

DO NOT FEED MY FICS TO CHATGPT, OR MAKE AN AI WITH MY WRITING STYLE. If I find out you're doing it somehow, I may even end up getting so anxious that I'm deleting all my writing accounts and never coming back.

Absolutely no romantic requests between underage x adult. Meaning not underage reader nor underage character. Platonic stuff is more than fine, but romance is a big no for me personally.

I have the right to refuse from doing your request. I might not get inspired by it or I just don’t find the topic comfortable.
