Hey homie! Hope you are well :) Have you watched any of the Batman Caped Crusader series?

I'm doing wonderful! I hope you're doing good as well!!

and I HAVE. I finished the whole thing last week, I loved it. have you finished it?

[eureka-its-zico]

Stopping by to say I love Chaos in their Bones. I pretty much stayed up until 1am last night binge reading all 7 chapters. I can’t wait for more! xoxo

Osiyo, darlin

Thank you for stopping by to say such nice things! I do hope that you aren’t tired today and were able to get plenty of rest after going on such a binge!

I feel like CITB is close to 60k or more in length so that is a LOT of reading to catch up to 👀👀

I am honored 💚

[galvanizedfriend]

HIII if you don’t mind sharing, what are your fav klaroline fics? New and old, I’m in need of new reads 🙏

I'm probably not the best person to be doing new fic recs. 🥲 I have sadly not been reading that much Klaroline myself these days. When I do read fic, it's for other stuff. So my recs are either old or new-ish. 😂 But hopefully you can find something to your liking that haven't read yet here.

Buckle up because I took my sweet time with this list, nonnie.

. Inertia Overcome by @avari20

The first KC fanfic I remember reading the reason why I finally got pulled into the fandom after years of watching TVD as a reasonable spectator (so rly, if you guys can't stand to see me around anymore after all this time, it's this fic's fault for being so good). Honestly one of this fandom's statement works. If you haven't read it yet, please do.

. Timeless by @marvelouskatie

Same as the above. One of the most iconic KC fics of all time imho. The canon AU to end all canon AU. When I first decided to come out of the shadows and create a tumblr and actually start interacting with folks, this was the first fic that was recced to me. I was very grateful then, and now I'm here to pass this knowledge on.

. Picturesque by @supernutellastuff

Honestly of the sweetest, most heartwarming fics I've ever read! It's a human AU that's a How I Met Your Mother sort of adaptation, and honestly the first time I've ever enjoyed HIMYM. I love a good ensemble fic and this is just it! Supernutella is so talented.

. Quiet Light by @definedareasofuncertainty

This fic was WRITTEN FOR ME because of how much I pestered my friend Luiza about Carolijah and this will forever feel like a trophy to my heart. 🥰 It made me feel ALL THE FEELINGS. I hated Caroline, I loved Caroline, I loved my baby Elijah, I hated him, I also hated Klaus (he's such a fucking asshole omfg), but then the end was just DHAGHDDASAS!! You think you're in for a certain kind of story and it turns out to be so much more. It is, deep down, about the brothers, how selfish they are, how they can hurt each other more than anyone, but how they love one another above anything else, even when they want to kill each other (and fall in love with their brother's girl!!!). It's beautiful, like everything Luiza writes, and it genuinely made me cry.

. long limbs and frozen swim by @definedareasofuncertainty

I saw a discussion the other day about how whoever wrote this fic JUST GOT IT, and I have to say I completely agree with the person who made that comment. Luiza just NAILS Caroline's grief and loneliness after her mother's death, how isolating and gut-wrenching it is. Klaus being the person who finds her, who knows exactly what to say without her ever having to spell it out, the one who can truly see her, is so honest too. This fic is sensitive and absolutely beautiful. Luiza's writing is perfection and this is for sure one of my all-time favorites.

. Whisper to me, Help me remember by @lalainajanes

This story reimagines the plot with the "villains" of TO S3 in a way that proves my point that the premise of that season was good, but execution was absolute crap. All of the potential the De Martels had to be incredible antagonists was completely destroyed at the hands of the show writers - but explored to perfection by Laine's much more capable hands. Klaus is freed after 10 years in captivity to find that Caroline had been working with Tristan this whole time in order to take him down - except something is not quite right about that. While you're at it, please read all of Laine's fics! It's a delight.

. Into the Woods by @jinxedwood

I wept when I read this because it's the post-TO canon fic I didn't even know I needed. Caroline's search for a way to stop her twins' merger ends up leading her to someone who's been watching over her on the Other Side. 😭 I thought I'd always rather live in denial when it came to how TO ended, but this fic made my heart so full! Also, jinxedwood's use of fae mythology here was incredible.

. All I Need by @euvixen

This story is HOT. It taught me things about the werewolf AU universe I was not prepared to learn, but I am a much happier person after reading it. It's a canon mates AU that will leave you 🥵🥵🥵🥵 I speak as though the story was merely about the smut, but it's actually much more than that. A TVD S3 reimagine of sorts that is incredibly satisfying. That's my favorite season of TVD, but this is still even better.

. the birth and death of the day by @little-miss-sunny-daisy

Anyone who's known me for a some time knows how this fic was my entire personality for a while there. I'm obsessed with Kelly's writing, and I have this fic on a freaking pedestal. I first started reading it when it was on a six years hiatus, and I was *so* into it I didn't even bother me that it might never get updated because it was so good I was just happy I'd found it. But then my silly comments inspired Kelly to come back to it, finish it, and it has honestly been my greatest accomplishment as a part of this fandom because this is a masterpiece. It's a TVD/Supernatural crossover where Caroline is a step-sister to the Superbros. It's truly, truly epic, with beautiful writing. This could genuinely be a show. It's amazing, just read it.

. this is a harvest by @highgaarden

This, right here, is the perfect Klaroline-within-canon story. This is the story that put my revolt to rest and gave my spirit some much deserved peace where those two are concerned. This is exactly what canon should've been like. I'm not even joking, this is IT. If you'd asked me what I thought the perfect Klaroline development should be like I probably would've said something very vague because I couldn’t explain it, I’m not that great or creative a writer, but now I can just show you this story and let you bask in the amazingness of a fantastic read that will not only keep you thoroughly entertained, but will also be the answer to all the questions you didn't even know you had.

. Paradise Lost by Borzoi

When i grow up, I want to learn how to write like Borzoi. All of their fics are incredible novella-like reads. It's addictive. And this is probably my favorite (it varies though, sometimes I'm in a Parisian Deal era). What happens after Klaus and Caroline sleep together in 5x11, and how they eventually find their way back to each other. It's just one of those stories that you can't stop reading after you start. It's so rich, so deep, so perfectly IC. One of those fics to end all fics.

. The Stubborn Grace of Being Loved Regardless by @helpless-in-sleep One of the modern day classics, if you will. This fic is such a stunning, vivid and delicate picture of Caroline's mind as she was dealing with the consequences of the abuse she suffered at the hands of Damon. She's still human, but she's probably more IC than we've seen her ever on the show when it comes to this. The bond she forms with Klaus is truly incredible too, and speaks a lot of how the two of them really do have a lot in common (even with Caroline still as a human), but it's really the Caroline study part of the story that touches me. The writing is absolutely beautiful as well.

. it takes a while to settle down by theviolinist

This story is a punch to your stomach, but it is PERFECTION in 8k words. It's hot, it's bittersweet, it's SO in character and, in my head, I kinda like to pretend that this is what happened before Caroline married Stefan. lol

. Wanderlust by @bellemorte180 Anybody who was a part of fandom around the time this story was being published can tell you how much of an EVENT it was. There were discussion groups about the mystery. It was so entertaining. Erica's attention to detail and how she wove the little clues throughout the chapters made this a genuine thriller. I particularly some of the side-characters here. It's honestly another fandom staple I think everyone should read.

--

In terms of newer fics that I can rec you, I have two that are on my TBR. One of them is a WIP that I've been slowly going through, and the other one I know was recently finished.

. make them bow by @stars-and-darkness

This was recced to me by two friends recently and I started reading it a while back and thought it was incredible! I have sadly been awful with keeping up with stuff, but just based on the raving reviews and the five chapters I read, I fully believe it to be just as awesome as it seems to be. The writing was so good, and I was just in love with Klaus' voice in this story. It was so reminescent of early-days TVD Klaus, which is by far my favorite Klaus of all. Sexy and dangerous and so smooth. I loved it! Need to get back to it.

. Wolf Club by @Radioactive79

Listen, if you like kid fics, this is absolutely for you. The whole story is narrated by an eight-year-old OC, the daughter of Ray Sutton, the first werewolf Klaus kills when he's trying to start his mass-production of hybrids. She's a little wolf herself, and a while little thing who was subjected to her fair share of child trauma. Klaus has no idea what to do with her, but ends up taking her with him as continues on his journey, and ends up forging a bond with the little girl. I cannot tell you how delicious this story is. It has Klaroline, yes, but for me the little girl is the absolute star of the company. I usually hate OCs, especially children, in fics, but this one is AMAZING. Seriously. The way this story is written is glorious. I can't recommend it enough.

[klarohizzie]

MarvelousKatie really wrote the most tragic fic in history of fanfics like nothing could ever compare to a time travel story where two enemies fall in love only for the man to watch his love die by the hands of his father, going through 500 years of endless pain and misery while trying to raise her back for the dead and failing, not knowing dying actually sent her back to her original time.

So, in the last couple of days, I’ve been experiencing some mild writer’s block while progressing with the next chapter of DMTMYHB.

Rest assured, it’s about 60-65% finished if we exclude grammar and editing, so if I’m lucky, it’ll be out sometime along next week if I have the energy. Night shifts all fucking week.

In the meantime, I hope you’ll enjoy some scribbles and drawings I’ve been procrastinating with.

- Yours truly, WWW.

This is what I personally imagine Reader/“Cross-Hairs” looking like as I’m writing. Helps with some visuals, y’know? (Ignore the weird angles of her eyes in the second one plz)

Context: Buggy wanted to ask you something in private, only to discover you were engrossed in a conversation with Shanks. Fuck ‘im.

Gol D. Rogers’ Legacy: the Next Generation of Pirates in the New World.

Reader/“Cross-Hairs” — (former) Captain of the Cross-Haired Pirates and the Beast of the East.

“Red-Haired” Shanks — Captain of the Red-Haired Pirates and one of the Four Emperors.

Buggy “The Clown” — The Genius Jester, The Flashy Fool, Captain of the Buggy Pirates.

Gol D. Could not have been any prouder, and is currently cheering on them from the grave.

Ah, young love ❤️ (… hope nothing bad happens to them…)

And there you have it! What I’ve spent the last few days working on, both sober and otherwise. Have some more doodles I might post at a later date.

If any of you have any fanart you wish me to put up on the page, regardless of what it is, I strongly encourage it (if you feel like it).

Hey, you know some fanfic where Niklaus has to take some meds of any kind?

Hey, apologies for the late answer.

I do not remember reading that specific kc fiction but I do remember the one closest to it: The Madness Underneath. One of the best Klaroline classics by marvelouskatie.

[nymphl]

R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence???????? (i need more fics to read and you've been my favourite writer for some time now)

Hi, darling! xD

Sorry it took me such a long time to come here with your reply. I’ve actually given this ask much thought and I was afraid to come off as too arrogant because I don’t actually have many fanfic writers to recommend here. At least not Star Wars related. Right now, I don’t have much time, so I either write my stories or I read fanfiction, so… I end up choosing the writing part xDDDD Hopefully, by next month, I’ll have more time to both reading and writing.

But… once again, I’ll recommend Elmidol’s stories (even though I do love the Sir General series, everything she writes is good enough to me and it’s actually because of her stories that I decided to try my hand at writing Hux centered stories xD) and The General’s Wife by yddraig318. 

If you allow me to recommend something SW related, even though not Hux centered, I love an Anidala fanfic called The Sith & the Senator by WrittinInStone. This fanfic is simply superb and her writing skills otherworldly! I also love the stories written by TheRealThing. She writes Anakin/Padmé stories as well.

As for other fandoms… I don’t know if you’re interested in them, I’d recommend… something The Vampire Diaries/The Originals related? I simply love Prowl and Timeless, both Klaus x Caroline stories, the first is AU and you’ve to understand very little about the TV show and the second is canon divergence. I’ll leave here my profile on ffnet - velvetsins. If you check my fav works, you’ll see only the best fanfic ever there xD And please, don’t mind me… I’ve most of my works waiting for an update… I’m a lazy author and I’ve lost interest in Bleach after the manga ended so poorly, that’s why I haven’t updated on ages xD.

As for authors… book authors. I do love Machado de Assis, a Brazilian author, and I’m nowhere close to his genius xD. I also love Graciliano Ramos, one of his books is an all time favorite. To think about the geniality in São Bernardo give me chills. As for other authors… I mean… I don’t have much time to read anything besides books/essays related to my thesis right now… but I’ve recently read Phasma by Delilah Dawson and I enjoyed her writing style quite a lot. I quite enjoy the romances written by Gaelen Folley and Patricia Grasso, both are an inspiration to me when it comes to writing ITGB. One of my all time fav is Anne Rice. 

I think that’s all, there are so much more, but right now my brain is useless… Thanks for the ask and once again, I’m sorry it took me such a long time to come up with your reply. 

[jomosfamilyjewels]

Well, Jenn hit the nail on the head for me. 

When I first found KC, I was more lost than I realized. I was in a tough marriage that didn’t seem bad at the time, but was missing so much. I was lonely, and neglected, and making the most of an inevitably lost situation. 

This fandom brought so much joy into my life, I don’t even know where to start. I was able to take all of my emotions at any given moment, and release them onto a bunch of strangers from all across the world, and you all just took it. You gave me an escape and embraced every silly, weird, creative, smutty thing I threw at you, and I can’t imagine what my life would be without you all. 

I found 5 of the coolest chicks, that I love so dearly. They have been a constant in my life every single day since the first Skype call the six of us were on almost 6 years ago. We have laughed so much, and cried with each other, and have celebrated every milestone that has come our way. Successes, failures, love, death, heartbreak, birth, CAR CRASHES. So many moments that never would’ve been there if this ship never existed. 

I am sad and annoyed that we are not getting the ending we deserve for these two. But the more I contemplate on this, the more I realize that...

I already won! 

[devilfic]

Hi is there a gofundme or something I can donate to so you can quit your job and/or school and just write Battinson x Reader fic. You're my fave Battinson writer and I need more Right Place, Right Time.

WHDHEKDHSJH

i’m currently unemployed so this is the absolute CLOSEST you’re going to get to that. I’m happy to continue laying my fics at the battinson x reader altar tho

[fantasyreadersstuff]

[galvanizedfriend]

no because what do i do with myself now that i’ve read every klaroline fic out there 💔

Nonnie, there are so many amazing Klaroline fics out there 😂 I doubt you've read them all. If you feel like you've read all of the newer ones, there are ancient fics that are brilliiiiiiiant! Fanfiction.net is a good place to go hunting, many authors never moved their stuff over to AO3. Like Borzoi, one of my favorite KC fic writers of all time. Also idiot-wind89, MarvelousKatie (some of the most classic KC fics of all time!), clangwee, Lila2 (they are on Ao3 as well but some of their stuff has only been posted to fanfiction.net), Anastasia Dreams, nurseholliday (the most amazing regency era fic that's never been finished 😢). I'm sure there are others.

I might rec you a few of my faves if you're interested, but if you search Klaroline Fic Recs here on my blog I've done several rec lists over the years, you might find something you haven't read yet. 👀

FAVORITE KLAROLINE FANFICTIONS (1/?): The Madness Underneath by @marvelouskatie

“Caroline is a psych student working as a sober companion in Chicago, hired by Elijah Mikaelson to assist his brother, Klaus, who is fresh out of rehab. For the next six weeks she’ll be with him 24/7 helping him to maintain a sober life. Caroline will soon discover Klaus is no ordinary client. AH/AU, based off of Elementry/Sherlock Holmes.”
