omg i wanna know what the fics r about, especially the sashnetra one

Oh boy, there's so many worlds living in my head currently hahaha!

There's the boxer continuation I still need to plot out, more one-shot collection pieces including an amusement park AU, a couple different stripper ones (I can't help myself oops), drunk Anetra at a party with Marcia taking care of her (tbh this one might leave the one-shot folder and become a whole story)

Then there's the non-one-shots, which has a bodyguard/celebrity AU that I have plotted but need to suck it up and put to paper, a (shocker) Vegas stripper and 21st birthday AU, and yes I know it's cheesy as fuck but I love cheesy fics but I'm currently working on my tattoo shop owner AU where Marcia comes to get some tattoos and accidentally falls in love.

The Sashnetra is a fun one! Very directly inspired by the top 4 episode (and I will cry if anyone steals this) but Sasha is a pop girlie, Anetra is a model/dancer who was hired to be in her MV, and working with Sasha is a gay awakening (feat. am I gay BuzzFeed-esque quiz taking)

He laid at the brink of death once more, staring at the face of despair. He remembered the path that led him to this purgatory, and with a smile could only ask:

"Shall we be friends?"

[kaisollisto]

based off of this

Today is frigid and windy, she feels it unforgivingly on her cheeks. Clouds part around her, clinging to her jagged features. They are wet and stifling, a brushing reminder of what she cannot have. It is the only thing claimed from the earth she can touch.

She passes above skylines and craggy mountains and watches. The earth is still cold and unyielding and she yearns for it in a reckless way. A silly wish to feel all that it has to offer in her mouth. She wants to touch, to feel the grainy sands between her fingers and find sand in horrible unbefitting places. The encapsulating experience of teetering the fine line of tasting the sun and burning herself. She wants to be down there.  

She’s heard many names weaved in between her. There are many she’s been called but one that has truly stuck with her, Ava. 

A soft sound pressed between lips, a gentle thing for a large entity like her. She likes to believe that’s who she was before this, a force too big to contain that she had to become this. A mangled thing of roots and chunks of dirt. 

It’s better this way, someone tells her in a foggy haze, she’s fighting them, a sloppy sluggish battle of desperation. Ava doesn’t know why but the memory lingers like a prolonged goodbye. A sort of awkward suspension holding her rooted to the spot like there’s more to it, a truth sitting in plain sight.

One of my absolute favorite dialogues you can have with Astarion is after your Durge discovers that they're Bhaalspawn. (which is saying something bc he's got a lot of great dialogues tbh). He's been supportive of you up until now. Hells, he's even kind of into how much of a little freak you are if you're romancing him. But this? This is A Lot for him. His facial expressions are controlled. He chooses his words very carefully, not expressing a strong opinion of you resisting or submitting to your father's will.

You can tell he is already running the mental math in his head about how risky being with you is going to be going forward. He is very much just as freaked out about this as any of the "good aligned" companions. No harm in hedging his bets, though.

BUT if you choose the option to admit that you are scared, and you don't know how to fight back against someone as powerful as Bhaal, his whole demeanor shifts.

"You know, I didn't realize you and I were so alike. I- I felt paralyzed to do anything about Cazador for so many decades. I gave up on myself. I gave up on any hope of escape after a few lashes. Bhaal controls you in much the same way. I don't know how you can beat him, but I do know this; you must try. The half-life of a mind-addled slave is worse than death- don't become his. I wouldn't live another century as one for all the moonstones in Evereska."

Genuinely one of the most honest and introspective and vulnerable responses from him in the whole game. And the soft pleading desperate way he says, 'don't become his'??? I am feral. I am gnawing at the bars of my enclosure.

that moment when you have ONE specific scene in your brain and absolutely nothing surrounding it and you want to write it but it's TOO SHORT to be anything but you can't figure out what comes before and after so you just have to sit there and let it live in your brain

[nutklcker]

I was thinking about how the run away with me au Robin and Steve "should we get divorced?" conversation comes about:

Theyre about 23 and Robin comes home in tears after another break up. The reason: Robin had asked her girlfriend of 8 months, Lorraine to move in with her and steve. Lorraine assumes this means steve is moving out and when Robin clarifys that no Steve is staying, he's an important part of her life theyre married for chists sake. Well Lorraine doesnt take that well, says she isnt going to spend her life playing second fiddle to Steve.

This isnt the first time a relationship had ended for either of them because a partner hadnt been able to accept that Steve and Robin were a package deal. Things had been especially rough for them romantically in the first couple years of their marriage. It wasnt until a particularly awful screaming match between Robin, Steve and Steves first real boyfriend, that they were able to admit their relationship was incredibly codependent and unhealthy. Steves boyfriend had been upset when Steve had cancelled on him for the 3rd time in a row because of a Robin Emergency™️ and decided to confront Robin about it while Steve was in class. Things escalated quickly when Steve came home early from class to find them arguing and immediately took Robins side. The argument and Steves relationship ended with a slammed door, a lot of tears and a new rift in Robin and Steves relationship.

It took a lot of long conversations with Carina and Marjorie, Steve working through his toxic masculinity enough to go see a therapist - He and Robin made a deal that theyd both go talk to someone about, you know almost dieing "do you think me being fucked up by what happened at starcourt makes me weak steve?" "No of course not!" "Well then why would it make you weak?" - and a summer spent apart (Robin taking an internship in rome to study latin) for them to sit down and have a long conversation about boundaries and ground rules for how they would navigate their relationship as well as dating in the future.

Steve and Robin agreed to both take a break from dating while they worked through their respective traumas, and figured out how to navigate their relationship in a healthy way. Things werent easy, the both of them occasionally backsliding into unhealthy behaviors, more than a few nights where one of them spent the night with Carina and Marjorie in order to have space from eachother. But eventually they get their shit figured out and decide to brave the world of dating again. Steve and Robin both have their share of flings and short lived relationships but nothing so far seemed to stick. That is until Robin met Lorraine.

Lorraine was funny, sweet and a little bitchy. They had immediately clicked after being introduced by some mutual friends from school. Robin really thought things with Lorraine were going to work out. Steve and Lorraine had gotten on like a house on fire, she had slipped into Robin and Steves dynamic easily, trading jokes and light hearted jabs, cooking breakfast together on days Lorraine would stay at their apartment. Robin had fallen hard and fast, she thought she had finally found someone who accepted that her and Steve were a package deal. So 8 months in when Lorraines lease was ending Robin (with agreement from steve) asked Lorraine to move in. Things don't go to plan. Robins dreams of a future with lorraine are shattered. She goes home broken hearted.

After Robin has cried herself out, her and steve cuddled together on the couch Steve is the one to broach the topic. Robin immediately bursts back into tears before he calms her back down again saying he doesnt want a divorce but he also doesnt want to hold Robin back, doesnt want to be the reason she cant find happiness. Robin replys by saying if anyone is holding the other back its obviously her, steve gave up everything to protect her afterall. Steve calls bullshit -years of therapy and he can finally say that word without cringing- says he would do it all again in a heartbeat, that she doesn't owe him anything. They stay up all night talking about it, about what the both of them want from their futures. Neither can see a future without the other. they're platonic life partners, one day they'll find their someones who can accept that and if not well, they'll always have eachother.

Of course they do find their someones in the form of a charming if infuriating metal head and a brilliant, sweet, and badass reporter. Through trial and error the four of them figure out how to navigate life together. They all live happy ever after.

Robin and Steve celebrate 30 years of marriage with divorce papers. They'll always love eachother but now they dont need a marriage to keep eachother safe. They dont need a marriage to stay as platonic life partners. They have eachother and they have Eddie and Nancy. They have everything they need.

Lmk what you think! I'd love to have someone to scream with about this AU and bounce ideas off of :D

Honestly manifesting the show to go full dark joke with Alastor’s character because while I call Hazbin edgy for the sake of being edgy, I think it would be hilarious if Al is just a character who flat out says what’s on his mind, aka that being something absolutely horrible, since this is the same guy who got a kick out of the stock market crash and laughed at the fact that there were many orphans.

Like the idea of him being told to comfort Angel and then just say something like “well at least it’s not happening to me”- like in the sketch by Viv would honestly be funny. Him just either being honest about how he hates everyone around him or wants to exploit them, like….let him be an evil unapologetic sick bastard PLEASE Viv-

afternoon ponderings

[angeart]

would u and link like fanart of hhau? and if so what scene/moment would u two wanna see the most? hehe thanks :)

OH GOSH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. we'll go insane. we'll love you forever. please.

we'll be honestly happy with anything. we are obsessed and would die for any scene you feel like drawing!! if you do need suggestions though (and feel free to dismiss this one and do something else entirely), the one thing that came to my mind was bloodied grian returning to worried scar after the whole hunted bit. and just. them taking care of each other. so weak for that.

[iridescent-serpent]

Ya see a friend of mine plays this area game called Obey Me, and I realized that it’s got a mc sheep. So I obviously did the most obvious action.

Aka do a crossover au with Cult of The Lamb :)

[purgetrooperfox]

okay I think that maybe it's okay actually to be part of fandom without actively following the source material. there are definitely corners of fandom where the source material is little more than a loose recommendation, or it's just set and setting, and people celebrate pushing its boundaries. that is an okay thing to do I'm sorry I'm not sorry. there will ALWAYS be interpretations of canon that you disagree with, whether they come from Content Watchers or Content Ignorers, so why does so much energy get wasted on berating the Ignorers?

do you get your panties in this much a twist about the die hard, by the text, no wiggle room interpretations? because that's the alternative. what about AUs? do you know that you can't have your coffee shop AU or childhood friends AU or whatever without basically kicking canon out the window in favor of reinterpretation?

I just

it's not lazy to engage with fandom like that. it's not wrong to seek community in fandom even though you're behind on the Content, or even if you never intend to consume the Content. it's not a given that creators disengaged from source content don't do any research.

There Is No Wrong Way To Be A Fan Of A Thing and maybe we all need to fucking relax

[moshieee]

I have a hoard of snacks in my closet because too often I forget to eat dinner and I don't wanna get chased by the stairway demon for the effort to get food. (I don't like the dark It has EYES)

That's a mood. . .

Look I'm sorry friend but im going to ask that you start sending these type questions to my alt blog @moshieee-but-evil

As fun as it is to chat with you, this is an art blog and these types of asks don't really go anywhere

they're not really a question they're more like updates and sound like something you could just make your own post for...

Please understand this isn't me trying to be mean I'll still gladly talk to you over on that blog

[auroral-melody]

does anyone know of any other sandman/sandman universe/vertigo servers (that aren't dedicated to dreamling exclusively)? i'm sort of trying to reach into the bigger fandom to see if i've just been missing people who might like my extremely specific comics content

[unganseylike]

we need to bring back authors notes. for fic but also for formal writing. im working on my applications rn and i leave an incredible amount of comments throughout for both myself and person editing. most are not even questions theyre just like annotations of my own work "this technically isnt true heres what actually happened" "*explanation of how much my undergrad research PI sucked*" etc. sure these are things i should incorporate smoothly into the actual essay but also i think i should be able to say "A/N the preps will hate me for this!!!" etc in my personal statement

[discordiansamba]

respectfully if you guys could not tag other authors in the fandom to "work their magic stuff" on my ideas I would very much appreciate it.
