Heartstopper and Osemanverse Drabble/one shot requests are open

The return of my Alice Oseman hyperfixation means it’s now been added to the list of fandoms I write requests for. So, feel free to drop in to your request and I’ll write a little Drabble or one shot.

I will say the only one of her books that I haven’t read is This Winter.

Rules/wills and wonts are in my pinned post

Hey, Old Friend

In honor of Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along winning the Tony award for Best Musical Revival, I suggest everyone go listen to “Old Friends” but imagine Matt as Frank, Foggy as Charley, and Karen as Mary! It totally works, down to the bickering.

Most friends fade

Or they don't make the grade.

New one's are quickly made

And in a pinch, sure, they'll do.

But us, old friend,

What's to discuss, old friend?

Here's to us ? Who's like us?

Damn few!

The Year In Doom & Gloom

Doom & Gloom From The Tomb celebrated its 15th anniversary this year, which is crazy. But what can I say, I keep finding cool live tapes and keep feeling compelled to share them with you ... whoever you are! A lot of this website is just me talking to myself, hashing and rehashing and re-re-hashing various obsessions, getting impossibly niche about some of my favorite artists, trying to shine a light into the darkest corners of music history. But that makes it sound like it's a serious endeavor. Mostly, it's fun. I hope it's fun for you too. So, if you need to catch up, here's a tip-of-the-iceberg rundown of what we checked out over the last 12 months ... as always, thank a taper!

Thehehehehe I luv thwm

[velvetures]

omg hey just here to shoot a request, idk if you do gaz as well but only soap is ok too. maybe something like soap x reader where the reader is a transfer from the american sector and she's just this super energetic, "AMERICA SCRAAAWWW" kind of person but is also super in learning about cultures and stuff. then the boys take her to this texas themed pub that she just criticizes the shit ton as she's from texas. i think it'll be funny to see a scot x texan lol thxx

God Bless Texas... and Scotland

A/N: I believe my goal here is to make something a little more on the joking/humorous side here... I'm not trying to get into politics or country pride on a deep level. This is just for fun. Nevertheless, thank you for requesting, I hope you enjoy the direction I went with this. This is sooo damn cheesy... Summary: On shore leave, you and Soap get into a conversation about what it was like in your home countries. A couple funny stereotypes and light-hearted argument later, the 141 decide that experiencing both sides of the coin are necessary to settle the score. T/W's: stereotypes ofc, cursing, friendly banter/teasing, and as always not proofread.

It all started when you came out of your private quarters into the shared living room with an old t-shirt on with the admittedly cliche statement 'God Bless Texas' printed boldly over the front inside of a state-boundary shape. Out of all of the members of the 141, you were undoubtedly the most... shall we say... patriotic. At least in terms of your state pride and your unwavering happiness of having family still living there who were so in support of you and your work. Having family in the first place was something different compared to the rest of the squad, and it made the whole pride of where you came from a lot more difficult to understand.

You'd spent years at this point being around the 141 and learning all kinds of very unique and traditional habits that they carried with them despite oftentimes not having a family to share them with. Most of those, they shared with each other, and after getting comfortable with you was extended as a way to bond with you outside of the missions and other job requirements that you did together. From Soap's requirement of the "First Footing" tradition on New Year's, Captian Price never missing a Soccer World Cup no matter where he is, and Gaz's refusal to have a Christmas dinner without Christmas pudding, there isn't a time when someone isn't explaining their desire to incorporate some country, cultural, or family tradition in one way or another.

So, naturally, Soap was ecstatic when he found out about some little niche place that had opened up an 'American, Texas-Themed' restaurant. He knew it would be totally overdone, as did everyone else, so they all thought it would be something of a light-hearted way to poke fun at your loyalties by taking you there as a "resident expert" that could point them in the right direction and away from everything else. Truly the idea of having at least on full hour of teaisng you with everything they could just sounded like a damn good way to spend an afternoon.

The place was a little hole-in-the-wall pub with a little bit of seating that wasn’t directly at the bar. Dim lighting made it feel pretty inviting, but the obvious country music choices including Texas natives: George Strait, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson made it feel a little cheap. Especially with the taxidermy Longhorn head above the bar and the “cowboy” style of practically everything hanging on the walls. Although it wasn’t quite the most miserable place you’d even been, it certainly felt like a little more than just a healthy appreciation.

“Home away from home, right lass?” Soap’s devilish grin only made the wound sting your pride that much more.

"Ya know... actually, not one bit." You answer a bit awestruck and looking around the place with bated breath and the hope that it wouldn't get much worse than it already was.

To your irritation, it got worse. Much worse.

After getting seated by an -obviously- British woman forced to fake a deep and southern drawl, you were all handed menus that named off the most "popular" foods in the Southern United States that not only made you chuckle out loud with disbelief but actually voice the total inaccuracies of certain dishes that the men sitting around you actually thought were legitimate staple items.

"You actually eat rattlesnakes often?" Gaz thought it was a bit far off since he spent quite a bit of time in his service in South Carolina, but thought he'd clarify with you anyway.

"For Christ's sake, Garrick. No!" You roll your eyes, taking a drink of the iced sweet tea you were actually shocked to see was listed as a drink option.

That in itself was the largest contention point with Ghost who stared at you with an iron-clad will of hatred seeing you pleasantly drinking iced sweet tea like you were enjoying the abomination. To his horror, you were quick to compliment that they'd actually gotten it pretty close to how you made it yourself or people at home did.

"What is a pecan pie?" Captain Price was quick to question the dessert menu before a waitress had even come back around to take main course orders.

His question sounded somewhat confused and downright scandalized at the same time. And to be honest, you really didn't know how to explain that it was simply a pie with corn syrup and brown sugar-based sweet filling, covered with pecans that were baked in a regular pie shell. You attempted to describe the basic ingredients and how it was made to the table of interested men, only to have them all stare in guarded horror... Save for Gaz. He'd actually tried it while in the States and said he'd enjoyed it. Luckily he was on your side for that particular topic.

The men as a whole hilariously didn't order anything that you -or they- considered uniquely "Texan" or "American". Soap insisted that you pick a meal that sounded the most authentic to you and that they would try some of the food off of your plate. Of course, the idea sounded good to them, but you weren't sure you wanted to share a plate of food that could possibly be decently "American" when it would still be months before you could go back home.

You folded quickly and picked a meal that you believed would be safe enough to keep them from being outwardly horrified with you but would still be interesting to compare to the meals you grew up with at home. The most simple and safe option was what they called the 'Home Run Special', most certainly a knock-off of the American chain breakfast restaurant. It came with pancakes, fried eggs, bacon, biscuits, sausage gravy, grits, and hashbrowns.

When the platter came out, you were pleasantly surprised at the look of everything, seeing as it visually had promise and even smelled just about right as well. With one glance around the table, you saw every single man staring at the three-plate meal sitting in front of you and couldn't believe that all of that food was supposedly for one person. That comment alone did make you laugh. It was one thing that you weren't afraid to admit. You could eat a whole lot. And it was a family thing that you never could be shy to not own up to. Eating all of that breakfast to them might've seemed totally unacceptable, yet for you, it looked very accomplishable, given the food tasted good. They each wanted you to give your own personal opinions before they tried anything and watched you intently for any sign of your acceptance or lack thereof.

By the end of the meal, the men had all tried everything and had mixed opinions of what they thought was actually good or not. You believed the biscuits and gravy were totally garbage and vowed that you could make them better, and wouldn't even allow them to taste them for fear of cementing an even more concrete belief that biscuits weren't meant to be savory. They were half-and-half on the bacon, some saying it was really good while others complained it wasn't enough meat for so much grease. You... were quite pleased. Eggs were fine, they all didn't really pay them much mind, while the grits were such a contested topic that you weren't sure if they lost respect for you since you finished the entire serving.

"Although I've enjoyed the majority of the food and I was surprised with it... this isn't anything legitimate." You mutter with a full stomach, looking around the place and beginning to feel a little more homesick than you thought such a tacky pub could produce.

Soap, who was finishing off your pancakes nudged your shoulder a little and smiled. "You'll have to take me home with ya. Then I ken' really find out why ye' think Texas is so damn special."

"You have to take me home with you too Johnny," You take the fork out of his hand and eat one more bite of pancakes. "So I can see if God blessed Scotland, too."

webtoons that I recommend.

over the years I have frequently tapped in and out of the world of webcomics. weather it be the obvious heartstopper updates or the more niche queer stories over the last 3 years there hasn't been a point I can think of where I haven't been following at least one webcomic. today I've decided to put a top five recommendations list.

1)heartstopper Alice Oseman

not exactly starting with an unknown but it would be a crime not to recommend the original story that got me into comics. the story follows Charlie spring an openly gay guy who meets rugby lad nick nelson and their adventures as a queer couple. Its sweet and an easy read would recommend.

2) Isadora Rose Estelle

this story follows Isa and Dora from young children all the way to adults. its a happy story and shows how their friendship morphs into something more. The art it simplistic and colourful and definitely compliments the story very well.

3) aerial magic walking north

Look its been a while since I read this one but the one thing that does stick with me is the captivating artwork. Seriously the artistry in this is incredible its watercolour like style along with the music that accompanies it coincides with the magical tale that it takes. This webcomic will truly take you to another realm.

4) high class homos Momozerii

This is probably the story I have been following the most dedicatedly after heartstopper. Its a fun light-hearted plot that has certainly kept me invested for best part of 3 years. The comic follows princess saphia who is to be engaged to prince august. But little does the towns people know these aren't your average couple but is in fact a cover to allow them both to be queer while the unsuspecting bourgeoisie and townsfolk alike still have the legal prince and princess they want and need to rule the kingdom. Its kind of a fake dating meets Disney princess. Its very similar in plot to Gwen and art are not in love by lex croucher.

5)Offbeat moonsscarred

This is a pretty good webcomic it follows Beau and Julie and their romantic get together from meeting to girlfriends. They start a band and enter a battle of the bands competition. Its pretty short but a nice read. And the author is really active on Instagram and has had a huge art progression which has been really cool to see.

If you have read this far thank you!

chao's list of fic writing tips

bc someone asked how to get into fic writing if they've never written before and i'm a veteran (re: have been doing this for a decade)

write from your heart. write what you want to write just because, even if there's a million other fics just like it or 0 fics like it. this is the only way to have fun, i promise

READ READ READ. Read books, read fiction, non fiction, fics outside of your fandom, fics inside your fandom. see how other people interpret canon events, learn how some people formulate aus, learn what YOU like.

steal plots. there's no such thing as a unique plot. a lot of my fic plots ive borrowed from books ive read or written. idgaf. it's easier to borrow someone else's plot structure than it is to try and be 100% original. did you read something and wished you thought of it first because you have an idea that would work with that? write it. credit the creator of the og something if you post it.

there's nothing wrong with writing the same thing over and over. don't get hung up on it, people like reading the same thing over and over. if u find your niche in idk..,let me use myself as an example, nick nelson angst fic, write that. it's never that serious that you should branch out onto other things if you don't want.

sometimes you just need to find a song and write until you physically can't listen to the song anymore. this is imperative to the process sometimes.

grammar and spelling mistakes are not that deep, if you're worried, either pick up a manual or if ur brave enough for grammarly, toss the fic in there.

never. ever use AI, it's disingenuous, bad for the environment, and takes away the joy from the creative process. the end product never matters as much as the process no matter how many people on twitter try to make it seem.

doing some research never hurts. reddit is a phenomenal source for this.

just write the smut scene.

if you're not having fun, there's no point <3

[a-murphy-fangirl]

Niche polls by me

[iamthemaestro]

one thing I have learned is that if you have a group of people who live or work in a common setting or situation you Can and Should in fact invent your own extremely niche and ridiculous 45-minute-long version of Nelson’s Blood

[figs-oliomedley]

My own observations from the trailer lol

there look to be multiple “”funeral”” pics in this shot, I think everyone has one lol

also IS THAT NELSON’S HAIRPIECE-

aw <3

ACCOST THE CHILD- (this is like frame 2 of this thing being on screen it is fucking ZOOMING towards Arin)

also this is kinda how I guessed that Arin taught himself Spinjitzu, it looks incomplete with windy strands, whereas when the ninja did it for the first time, they had complete tornadoes

The Bounty survived the merge lol that’s so flipping funny to me well, mostly, survived (they love cutting this thing in half as of late, something something team separated symbolism)

*Sonic Prime joke* seriously though, there are a couple of things in the new season that remind me of Sonic Prime, and that’s even before we found out Arin’s VA also they’ve gotta have the dragon at this point since Rapton is hunting them down

So why is Sora here? She seems to not care about being a ninja lol. Does she just wanna help protect the world too? Maye she was goaded into trying the training course lol

the Cragling things aren’t attacking them... >3> it doesn’t move an inch here, but in a different shot they’re being attacked wonder if this shot is after that one and Kai like, befriended them or something after being blasted here (that would be wild)

rip

wonder why the dragon doesn’t just use the power himself. maybe it’s just giving her a vague “juice” and her own personality made it tech-based, since a tech dragon seems a little too niche to just come into being

she a bad bitch /pos

A H H at first I was gonna make an “UH-oh” joke about the poster but then I noticed that quartet on the ground IS THAT THE ROYAL BLACKSMITHS?!

yo they look sick as hell also in the previous shot we can’t see Nya, definitely looks like the ninja are spilt and we gotta find them all

my precious darling <3 (probably my favorite dragon design so far)

I really like Sora without the cat headband honestly she spitting facts about being a ninja in her own way (really reminiscent of Nya’s who dilemma honestly, “I like her :]”), but what’s with the clothes? they look like the evil dudes’ color scheme a bit, wonder why the costume change

there’s this one vid where a guy is running in an alleyway from a tiger and this gives me those vibes also this thing isn’t flammable (Kai shoots fire at it and it either does nothing or he whiffs)

thicc eyebrow lady my beloved (love her color scheme :D) crazy dragon lady <3

also Lloyd’s got the techno-babble on his face, I think they wear disguises or something to infiltrate the dragon place

yeah ok so Kai is totally chill with the Craglings also scratch that, Nya’s with them here, she must’ve just been out of frame in the other scenes

YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE, FOOL

looks like the Merge is still happening, just in smaller chunks throughout the world that, or someone opened a portal and (maybe accidentally?) let this thing out oh yeah, also, WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT, WHAT REALM COULD THAT POSSIBLY BE FROM

get bitch slapped lmao

honestly, pretty excited! it looks like the trailer is still leaving out a lot, and I can’t way to see what’s missing. Super excited to watch this in a month!! :D
