Kidnap

I am going to lose my entire mind over this show. Just in case y'all were wondering. Like, I am gone. I am consumed. Look at them! Look at that! Poor little rich boy with trauma, poor man who's turned to crime to save his beloved brother, a kidnapping that shows the poor little rich boy what love and family look like... I am doomed by the narrative in the best way possible. @absolutebl GMMTV is gonna GMMTV but hopefully I can have a good time along the way.

ANOTHER YEAR OF BELLA MATT LOVE!!!

2024 is already a beauty with this news

In honor of the fact that I just realized FFTD is coming up on its first birthday (January 26, 2023 is when this beast first was shared over on AO3 and then definitely grew into more than the 20ish parts I intended), I figured I'd share some upcoming titles I have been planning out for upcoming installments. It's been so long since I teased titles for y'all and I've missed it!!

The Recurring Nightmare

The Unexpected Introduction

The Quiet Morning at Home

The Rooftop

The Office Visit (a smupdate that's been sitting in my WIPs since last April but I have finally found a way to work it in!!)

My next fic update will still be Seeking Forgiveness, but I am still working on getting this fic updated! I've been missing FFTD Matt and Reader and I left y'all on a mystery...which will be answered in one of these installments 😉

[fatuismooches]

I'm in love with the "Traveler finding fragile reader" scenario I've seen floating around your blog because this scenario is super interesting for Dottore specifically. Actually caring about someone else, perhaps even more than he does himself and his ambitions, not having the upper hand, and being almost wholly at someone else's mercy in a meaningful way are all probably very foreign things to Dottore. Since I suck at writing proper stories, here are some scattered thoughts.

After all the times they've encountered and clashed with the Second Fatui Harbinger, the Traveler had subconsciously realized that they would have to be just as ruthless, just as cruel as he is to neutralize him. They'd truly come to terms with this after learning about your existence, and muster the will to act upon this knowledge as the doors to the location you were being hidden in slammed open. Paimon's gaze snapped to the source of the sound, and in that split second the Traveler summoned their blade and held its edge against your throat. (As an aside, imo the Traveler would totally do something like this if they had to. We saw how they were willing to coldly execute you-know-who in the Aranyaka quest.)

As he burst through the doors, Dottore was greeted with the sight of the accursed Traveler's determination-filled glare, their white floating imp's wide-eyed stare… and the lab's dim lights gleaming off the blade held over your throat. Their surprisingly calm voice grates against his ears. "Paimon, keep your eyes on Dottore. There's no telling what he might try."

The only other time Dottore had ever felt this alarmed in his centuries of existence was when you just didn't wake up one day, reduced to barely clinging to life with the support of his modified Akasha terminal. This was a new first for Dottore - the first time he lost his rationality. Objectively, this was a favourable scenario - he knew the terrain here like the back of his hand, which would be a major advantage against an opponent as powerful as the Traveler. With this, he had a decent chance of permanently removing possibly the biggest obstacle to the Fatui.

The above should have been what went through Dottore's brilliant mind, devising scenarios to bring it to fruition. Instead, every cell in Zandik's brain was working in overdrive, trying to find a way to somehow get the Traveler away from you, to keep you safe. He knows the kind of person the Traveler is - if it were anyone else, he'd have no problem calling their bluff and striking at the slightest hesitation, but this was you, the only life he couldn't afford to gamble with.

(How the actual confrontation goes down is anyone's guess, since I don't have any concrete ideas. A proper fight is likely out of the question because a clash between two of the strongest beings in Teyvat is going to be incredibly destructive - you're almost definitely getting caught in the crossfire somehow, and Zandik can't have that.)

oh MY GOSHHHHH I AM LITERALLY DEVOURING EATING THIS UPPP

Anon. Im. I have no words. Your writing IS SUPERBBB. ITS AMAZING. All those things you said are so true. Even to this day sometimes Dottore is surprised he cares about you this much. He would have never thought he had the capacity for that previously. He always thought he had the situation and his emotions always under control, yet his love for you still blossomed. That was the one time he felt as though he could not predict something. The Doctor was known for his meticulous plans and actions, with no room for counterattacks or opposition. He was used to the cowered figures, terrified expressions of the people beneath him.

Until now. 

Dottore doesn’t have much regrets in his life. He doesn’t regret his countless experiments or people he hurt. That didn’t really matter to him. But right now, he was thinking that he should have killed the Traveler when he had the chance. Then you wouldn’t be stuck in this situation, the Traveler’s blade held dangerously close to your throat, hanging you on the thin line between life and death. (Traveler’s dull blade never seems to disappoint ig…)

The sight has him slowly losing his normal composed, rational train of thought. The tone the Traveler takes with him only worsens his thoughts, and he can’t help but think back to the time when he nearly lost you. From then he swore to never put you in more harm than you already were. But it seems like that was a broken oath now.

Scholars must plan for every possible situation and take everything into account. And now, he has to consider the possibility you may… 

There are innumerable amounts of plans and actions unfolding in his head, but each of them leaves you at risk, the one thing he has to avoid at all costs. He simply cannot risk your life. You still have a life ahead of you, the one that you deserve, one when he finally cures you. And he shall not let this Traveler stop him, no matter what he has to do.

Even as this goes on, the Traveler still can’t help but be fascinated by the fact they have the Doctor in a chokehold, not by sheer power, blackmail, knowledge, or anything along those lines. But rather from a person who didn’t seem to be anything special. If the situation was different, they would have liked to see the kind of person you were to be able to change the normally ruthless, unfaltering Doctor into a hesitant one.

I enjoyed this tremendously infinity/10, I loved how u described Paimon as an imp 😭 Traveler better watch themselves after that because when he gets you to safety, he ain’t holding back 🚶‍♀️LIKE I WISH I HAD MORE TO ADD BUT THIS IS PERFECT. I can only imagine maybe the Omega clone stepping in somehow, or a very tense verbal confrontation between the two of them where he has to give up some secrets in exchange for you. Or a crash/explosion from somewhere else distracting the Traveler enough to be able for Dottore to retrieve you.

[maroonmused]

it’s been so long since i watched Insomniac’s Wolverine teaser trailer and dp3 got me thinking about it again so just rewatched it,, god.

so excited to see where they take it, i can’t remember if they confirmed that it was going to be “open world” similar to the way GOW (2018) is when certain parts of the map open up for side quests, and generally tried not to pay much attention to the wolverine leaks when they got hacked last winter, but i really do want to see how their studio takes on a rated M game/hero, and logan in particular. i think it’s a safe bet that maybe there isn’t any spider-man 2 dlc coming down the pipeline which kinda bums me out but it’s not the worst thing in the world if all that means is they’re full throttle into wolverine development with what i imagine is gonna end up being a late 2025/early 2026 release date.

and if the way i latched onto insomniac’s version of pete is any indication i’m prepared to be so. insufferable about this

It's Step By Step Day!

It's the day for office romance, mature break ups, actual conversation, the shock of realizing your hot boss is gay, two idiots not even trying to communicate, gay speakeasies and shockingly adult storylines that speak to love, queerness, friendship, life and growing together. It's about becoming a better person because of love but also because you know you can be and you know you want to be and this is your chance to really try, to really work. It's the day for pain and thought and effort and growing up and growing and finding out that the people around you are just as complex as you are.

more information about my upcoming long fic!!

someone on my strawpage asked me about it, and i’m willing to share some info:

this story is based off of ��skinny dipping” by sabrina carpenter. i came up with it one night in october, and if you listen to the song, it essentially tells a good part of this story…

i am aiming for it to be over 100k words, and with the progress i’m making, it looks like i’m going to get there! i’m REALLY challenging myself here with all of the descriptors, prose, and metaphorical language, pulling out all the stops!!! i hope it works!

skinny dipping is going to be 5 chapters long, with about ~20k words per chapter. it will tell the story of the past AND the present at the same time. i will be posting one chapter every three weeks (long breaks i know, but she is a beast so bear with me)

it’s partially inspired by first love, late spring by cityboys (THE itafushi fanfic, if you ask me), but only very loosely. i take inspiration in the way that they incorporate a lot of emotional language in the descriptions of the story, so this will be a deep dive into itfs tbh

i’m aiming to have the first draft done by dec 31, and if all goes well, chapter 1 will be posted sometime in january!!

it’s being beta read by @kat-likes-writing, one of my good friends and another incredibly talented author!! she and i have been working closely to make sure this story comes out the way i want it to!
