I think applying tropes commonly found in Sonadow fics to other sonic ships is very funny
Like today I saw the cute posts by Blu-ish about how hedgehogs circle and headbutt eachother when courting and how Sonic and Shadow would do that and I agree.
However I think the implication that mobian hedgehogs do this is HILARIOUS when applied to ships that only involve one hedgehog.
Like Silver starts circling around Espio one day and lightly shoving him with his hip or his shoulder and Espio is like: ???? What are you doing??
Or even Blazamy like- Amy keeps circling Blaze and the less Blaze reciprocates Amy does it more to try to get Blaze to react. Blaze eventually just tries to politely tell Amy to stop cause it’s hard to hold conversation while she’s moving all around.
But later Blaze talks to Silver and is like: “I have no idea what she is trying to do…perhaps she is finding a weakness in my stance? Should I fear her hunting me for sport???”
And Silver is like: uh. Well. I think she’s hitting on you? It’s a hedgehog thing.
And Blaze just freaks out because WHAT DO YOU MEAN AMY WAS FLIRTING WITH HER
#silver would hold that over Blazes head for way too long#cause for the FIRST TIME HE KNEW SOMTHING SHE DIDNT HAHAHA#honetsly another Sonadow trope that I think would be interesting to see with other ships is the paw thing?#like yes some Sonadow fics are very strange about it I’ll admit#BUT#I really like the idea that the gloves are a culture thing it’s just very fun to think of how mobian culture would differ from human culture#like ofc I’m an espilver trigger so my brain goes there like#I love the headcannon that Espio reads romance novels#but I also feel like on Mobius a lot of romance tropes would be things usually done by mammals#since just like in real life I headcannon that mammals are commonly seen as cuter than reptiles even in Sonics world#so Espio gets a little self conscious about such things (cuz he’s a teenager and worries a lot)#he doenst ahve soft fur to cuddle or ears to flick or paw pads#but I feel like if he were to show silver his hands silver would not even care about such things#because silver just loves Espio cuz he’s Espio#looking back on my tags and noticing typos is so embarrassing lmao#like uh I meant to write espilver truther above….not trigger#Aw well whatever#silver the hedgehog#sth#sonic the hedgehog#shadow the hedgehog#espio the chameleon#amy rose#espilver#sonadow#blaze the cat#blazamy

Twin Peaks Extended Media
Whether it is for the lack of knowledge in mainstream Twin Peaks spaces regarding them or how some of these things are hard to get, the extended media of Twin Peaks but especially the books are constantly overlooked and ignored for various reasons.
I had done an (incomplete) index of it that blew up in my original account, and I had redone it (but as a more extensive guide that also included the order to watch the show). However, I changed my mind and decided to redo it, since the third time's a charm, right?
Most of these things include spoilers of the three seasons and the movie, so watch and read at your own risk.
AUDIOBOOKS AND COOPER'S TWIN PEAKS TAPES
The audiobooks consist of Laura's diary, the last two books narrated by cast members of the show, while Cooper's tapes were done by Kyle MacLachlan around the time the show was created, and (believe it or not) earned him a Grammy nomination for it.
Laura Palmer’s Diary (narrated by Sheryl Lee).
Diane: The Twin Peaks Tapes by Agent Cooper (narrated by Kyle MacLachlan).
The Secret History of Twin Peaks (narrated by Mark Frost, Len Cariou, Michael Horse, Mat Hostetler, Amy Shiels, Chris Mulkey, David Patrick Kelly, Robert Knepper, Kyle MacLachlan and James Morrison).
The Final Dossier (narrated by Annie Wersching).
BOOKS AND TEXT
Possibly the most overlooked section in Twin Peaks media. Mostly because some fanboys wrongfully think that because David Lynch didn't write them, it doesn't add to the story and canon, which is a wrong thing to say since these books were written by people involved in the show. Especifically, the writers wrote them and were given notes by Frost and Lynch.
The Secret History and The Final Dossier contain spoilers for the three seasons, so read them at your own discretion.
(*) Laura's diary and Cooper's autobiography are the only texts available in Glastonberry Grove. My recommendation is to copy the text and paste it on a google document, since the PDF has the pages ordered in a way you can later print it and build the book on your own.
The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer (written by Jennifer Lynch)*: Laura's diary is written on the day of her 12th birthday, and ends on February the 23rd, 1989. The book (like Cooper's) is very graphic since Laura has to constantly face BOB in her dreams and in real life, and struggles with how others perceive her as well as harm herself in order to avoid BOB hurting the ones she loves. It does not include the missing pages of her diary.
Internet Archive Link
Glastonberry Grove PDF + Text
Twin Peaks: Access Guide to The Town (by Gregg Almquist, Tricia Brock, Robert Engels, Lise Friedman and Harley Peyton with David Lynch, Mark Frost and Richard Saul Wurman): It's the hardest book to get from the books that were released in the nineties. The Access Guide is somewhat of a predecessor of The Secret History, since it includes some of the origins of Twin Peaks. However, the Access Guide also includes newspaper articles, a donuts recipe, and more fun stuff!
Link of the PDF (It won't show a preview because of how heavy the document is, so simply download it)
The Autobiography of Special Agent Dale Cooper: My Life, My Tapes (written by Scott Frost)*: Cooper's autobiography starts in 1967 and ends on February the 24th, 1989. It featured short interviews from Cooper's friends and other people connected to him and transcripts from his tapes. Like Laura's, Cooper experiences tons of horrifying and sad things, from sexual abuse to murder so reader discretion is advised.
Internet Archive Link
Glastonberry Grove PDF + Text
The Secret History of Twin Peaks (written by Mark Frost): A dossier of Garland Briggs that narrates the history of the town as well as the families that ahve stayed there, alongside relationships in the FBI, it includes letters, menus, classified FBI documents, drawings, fragments of books with notes done by Agent Tamara "Tammy" Preston.
Internet Archive link
The Final Dossier (written by Mark Frost): After the events of The Return, Gordon Cole assigns to Tammy the mission to interview people that were missing in The Return (Annie, Audrey, Donna, Harry, etc).
Internet Archive link
Star Pics Cards: A limited edition series of cards done by the writers of the show including the information of most of the characters, items and spaces featured on the first two seasons (With the exception of Denise Bryson).
Glastonberry Grove index
The Music of Twin Peaks introduction: A small text that came with the album "The Music of Twin Peaks", released in 1990.
Glastonberry Grove link
Twin Peaks scripts: The scripts and transcripts for the first two seasons as well as other texts.
Glastonberry Grove text index
MISCELLANEOUS
Blue Velvet (dir. David Lynch, 1986): Some could say this is the predecessor of Twin Peaks, considering Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan), Sandy Williams (Laura Dern) and Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper) are considered prototypes for Cooper, Diane and BOB by Dern, Lynch and MacLachlan. Set in a 50s ambiented town in North Carolina in 1984, Blue Velvet is about a 21 year old college dropout named Jeffrey Beaumont who finds an ear on his way home after visiting his hospitalized father. The movie includes three, very graphic scenes, so watch it at your own risk.
Blue Velvet trailer
Internet Archive link
Mulholland Drive (dir. David Lynch, 2001): Originally going to be an Audrey Horne spin-off for TV, Mulholland Drive is considered to be one of the best films done in history and the best of David Lynch's filmography by many alongside Blue Velvet, Fire Walk With Me and Lost Highway. After Rita (Laura Harring) survives a car accident on Mulholland Drive but suffers mass amnesia, she meets a up-and-coming star Diane (Naomi Watts) who's deeply intrigued about Rita's past, and together, try to solve the mystery of her past.
Mulholland Drive Trailer
Wrapped in Plastic Magazine: Released for the first time in October of 1992, Wrapped in Plastic Magazine is the most recognizable out of the Twin Peaks related magazines that exist since the start of the show. The issues include essays, theories and even interviews to the stars as well as issues dedicated to other shows and movies like The X-Files!
MUSIC
Music is also one of the most important things in the show (and also one of the best things), as it sets the mood and the personality of each character without having to say anything.
In Glastonberry Grove, you can find the music notations of Angelo Badalamenti for Laura’s theme, the music from the intro (also known as the Falling instrumental), Into The Night, Falling, Dance of the Dream Man, Audrey’s Dance and more.
Floating Into The Night (All of the songs but Mysteries of Love, I Float Alone, The Swan, Floating and I Remember are featured in the show) by Julee Cruise.
The first season Soundtrack by Angelo Badalamenti
The second season Soundtrack by Angelo Badalamenti (including unreleased tracks!).
The Double R Jukebox playlist I made taken from the Access Guide! It features most of the songs but since some of them aren’t on Spotify, you can also find it here.
The Fire Walk With Me Soundtrack by Angelo Badalamenti, Julee Cruise and David Lynch.
The Return Soundtrack that features bands like Chromatics to singers like Rebekah del Rio and Eddie Vedder, as well as Julee Cruise and Angelo Badalamenti, of course.
PHOTOS, BEHIND THE SCENES AND DELETED SCENES
A Slice of Lynch: David Lynch interviews Kyle Maclachlan, Mädchen Amick and post-production supervisor John Wentworth to discuss about Twin Peaks.
A Talk with Kyle MacLachlan and Sheryl Lee: A preview of an interview Kyle and Sheryl did for the Twin Peaks: From Z to A boxset where they talk about Laura and Cooper.
COOP Visits the set of Twin Peaks: David Lynch, Frank Silva (BOB) and more thank the members of C.O.O.P. for helping save "Twin Peaks" after its close cancellation in 1991.
David Lynch interviews the Palmer family: What it says on the title! Lynch interviews Laura, Leland and Sarah 25 years after Laura's murder. This was done as a way to promote The Missing Pieces DVD, which are the scenes that were cut from Fire Walk With Me.
Fire Walk With Me (+deleted scenes, aka "The Missing Pieces"): The extended version of Fire Walk With Me that features the deleted scenes, considered by many the definitive cut of FWWM.
Fire Walk With Me discussed by David Lynch, Kyle MacLachlan and Sheryl Lee: An interview they did in 2003 where they talk about FWWM.
Georgia Coffee commercials: The Georgia Coffee commercials were a series of ads directed by David Lynch for a Japan only Coca-Cola line of canned coffee featuring Cooper and the police station trying to help a mysterious man named Ken, whose girlfriend is stuck in the Black Lodge.
Invitation to Love: In the show, Lucy, Nadine and other characters are obsessed with an exaggerated soap opera named “Invitation to Love”. You can see the whole show (16 minutes) here! The band Her’s named their album “Invitation To Her’s” after this parody.
Kyle MacLachlan Twin Peaks SNL parody: The Twin Peaks parody Kyle MacLachlan did in the episode he hosted of Saturday Night Live in late 1990.
Making Bets: A deleted scene featuring Cooper and Harry set around season two where they make bets on the Seahawks game.
Meet the Makers: A series of interviews with the writers and crew of Twin Peaks.
Mauve Zone: A photo archive featuring promo photos, Richard Beymer's polaroids, polaroids of the actors on the costume tests, behind the scenes footage of the three seasons and the movie, as well as outtakes, spoofs and deleted scenes.
Scenes Deleted: A YouTube channel who uploaded most of the deleted scenes of the first two seasons.
Twin Peaks: The Return behind the scenes: These were short films filmed by Richard Beymer during the production of the return. Most of them are featured in the DVDs of the complete series, but you can find the following on YouTube:
David Lynch as Gordon Cole
I Had Bad Milk in Dehradun
The Man With the Gray Elevated Hair

Mace continued to watch with his full attention as Casimir did his stuff, though not really finding himself able to think of anything to say in the moment.
He found Casimir's library of compositions very fascinating to look at, it was sorta like a miniscule peek into the sort of person Casimir was beneath all of his flamboyance. How interesting.
"Kyehehe, comin' up with ideas already are we?"
He commented, leaning in a little closer as a show of interest, and also to get a better look. His long distance sight has always been a bit annoying like that. He perked up when he saw Casimir begin to look through all of the different voicebanks. Something he could share his input on! Hell yeah!
He inwardly giggled a little at Casimir's show of 'evil laughter'. Sevens, he didn't think he'd ever get bored when this guy was around.
"Entertainin' fo'sure! Vocaloid tunin's a bit of a hassle ta learn at the beginnin', but I think you'll be able ta learn pretty fast! Ya seem like the type-! Ya could go with a classic Hatsune Miku, or look inta some of the different VOCALOIDs! Your choice, really-! Some of my faves are definitely GUMI, Flower, and Oliver!"
He chirped, sharing his opinion animatedly, the little movements of his free arm accompanying his words, the other holding onto the back of Casimir's seat, balancing him upright while he leaned back just a little, so as not to block Casmir's view of the screen.
- Mace (🔌)
For the second afternoon in a row that week, Mace found himself walking down the same corridor of the Diasomnia dorms. He would have come by sooner, having finished downloading all of the stuff onto the drive way earlier, but he got a bit distracted doing... a few different things. He hoped Casimir didn't mind the wait too much. It would be a shame if he did.
Approaching Casimir's door, he knocked the same way he did last time, before stepping back.
"Yello~! Guess who it is~!"
He called out, combing his fingers through his hair to neaten it up a bit while he waited for the door to open. Not that he was trying to make it look extra neat. But more... trying to make it seem like he didn't just crawl out of bed a few hours ago, just to only make it in time to attend the last class of the day. Because he definitely didn't. Definitely.
- Mace (🔌) [ @nrc-asteryn-crew ]
( ooc// i cannot the way he starts monologuing in his thoughts then gets more sentimental STOPP I CANT DO THIS I LOVE HIM SM ACTUALLY if he was in game i WOULD whale /pos silly guy if anything ur inability to control ur UM is just making mace more interested in you (i actually love that it does that tho its so silly) anyway I FINALLY MADE THE GOSH DARN BLOG . well sorta i more so just had to revamp the pinned post that was already there but YEA!!! :D )
*the knocking on the door startled Casimir from his thoughts that, today, mainly consisted of some nonsense on a homework page. He relaxed though, at the recognition of the knocking pattern and voice and stood up*
*He took a deep breath to compose himself and adopt his typical, grandiose persona before opening the door*
Greetings to you, Vassal Mace! It is a pleasure to see that you have decided to return to my lair on this day.
I assume that your being here means you have successfully completed your quest?
*Casimir did his best to contain his excitement, tapping his fingers together in what, to most appearances, could be read as excitement or a gesture of evil plotting - the perfect gesture for one of his status, now that he thought about it.*
(✨HELL YEAH! banger that u have a blog now! I think I'm already following ur acct from my main but yaur!!! Also thank u SM that means. A lot actually bc I'm just here like "yeah this silly guy who exists in my brain is gonna get thrown from a window" and I really appreciate when other ppl like my silly guys dhhdsjdj. I'm so excited to be able to learn more Abt ur guys now tho too whehehehe >:3¢. Probably should've done this from the tags. Anyways.)

sparknotes for chapter 9 of as you like it because a very kind commenter asked for a breakdown and if theres one thing im good at it's breaking down
(spoilers for the fic obviously)
tihs chapter gave me so much trouble. i sat on it for so long i literally hated it by the time i posted it but im starting to forgive it now. it was, as ive said, originally way longer, and the next part of the fic was supposed to be the second half of this one... but it was starting to get absurd and i realised that neither part would have the weight i needed them to have if they were lumped in together. (with some relief, honestly, because i kind of had wanted them to be separate initially but didn't think they'd be long enough. i dont know myself very well.) anyway, the next chapter should be a bit of a doozy now although hopefully not SO absurdly long.
this chapter picks up where the previous cliff hung off, which is to say, after the 'shadow' akechi reveals that he's actually just the real ass guy. akechi in the palace what will he do. the chapter doesn't immediately kick off with ren's reaction though and that is because ren is the most repressed man alive and does not know how he feels about it.
so, akechi disguised himself to enter his palace, which is significant for a few reasons:
1. he's disguised as himself
which i think is ironic in a fun way, but it's also just a very basic nod to the fact that akechi pivots between which of his personae is his default. this isn't necessarily super meaningful, but he does later refer to the black mask suit as
a costume, instead of an outfit. i mean, don't read into it too much, he's just talking, but i did think that probably points to how he feels about his appearance generally.
2. more importantly, his disguise involves taking off his mask.
so he's disguised, yes, and he's disguised as himself, yes, but that disguise is a literal unmasking, which is also kind of ironic. in presenting himself this way he has literally and figuratively made himself vulnerable. they're inside his heart, and the entire time he's in the palace, he is exposed... again both literally and figuratively because he also starts sharing more with ren than he ever has. look, i just think it's fun to have a character who has so many layers that he has to lie so hard that he becomes himself again.
i only want to point this out because (this is also part of larger meta about mona lol) akechi knew about the metaverse, but there is no way to intuit the method of stealing hearts without guidance. it's such a specific and involved process. thje most akechi could work out on his own was that if you killed a shadow, that person would have a mental breakdown. no way to guess that if you send a calling card and then go in within the next 24 hours and take a physical manifestation of a thing that you didn't know existed (process) would lead to that person ahving a change of heart (result). so even if akechi had a palace and knew about it, even if he wanted to do something about it, he would have assumed there was nothing he could do about it - i also have no idea what the process would be for sending yourself a calling card, even if he DID know about the process. so basically in this fic akechi found his palace and just assumed that was it. he was like, fucked up lol. anyway
this just straight up isn't true HAHA so i put in the silly little dichotomy of akechi gently taking ren's arm to protect him from slipping on the ice while telling him that he lied about caring about him. i think in this chapter as akechi begins to openly explain more and more of his thought process, this is probably the first truly clear glimpse you get of exactly what akechi's distortion is and how deep it runs.
the things akechi says with total conviction in this chapter are just... not true, not a fair or founded way to view the world (or the art of performance haha), but he says them with total conviction, and hopefully it should show off how unreliable he is as a source of exposition. one commenter asked about this moment of akc's eyes going yellow and if it was somehting that happened in canon - not really, i was just thinking about those little moments in the game after you send a calling card where the game cuts from the person to their shadow to do a little oneliner about their distortion.
akechi's IN his own palace, so i thought it would be fun to kind of make it a physical thing that can happen to him where he sort of merges with his shadow for a brief second in the moments when the distortion is strongest.
OKAY this is one of my favourite bits of the chapter HAHA the deep soda lore. i dont expect anyone to remember all the way back to chapter 3 but:
literally nobody asked about this but i love the phantom thieves!!! i dream of all the little silly moments of being a team that they must have that we don't get to see in gameplay, for obvious reasons of it wouldn't really work in a game, but i can imagine them in my brain. i can imagine their trickshot contests that get their asses kicked. i can imagine them chanting at each other to chug while joker and oracle compete to down an entire bottle of brand neutral mountain dew baja blast. i can dream.
soda lore is gay.
i dont honestly think it's inherently a bad thing necessarily but this part does kind of set up like... you can see akechi very early on in life forming this worldview that the truth isn't always what you want, you know? this was a 'lie' he and his mother both bought into, they both knew what the truth actually was, so it wasn't real dishonesty, but they just had this little fantasy. i just thought it would be fun for akechi to have a way to bond with his mother and feel closer to her, and that way is by buying into this white lie. idk
akechi's mother isn't really a character and i don't want to form her into too much of one because i think it's very much the point that, like... he made this point in an earlier chapter but having lost her at a pretty young age i think it's quite crucial that akechi doesn't really have a fully formed image of who his mother is outside of what she was to him as a child. so i actively don't want her to feel too real or defined. im not interested in making an oc out of her because i think it defeats the purpose. that said, this line exists to maybe gesture very vaguely at the notion that akechi's mother was a very bright person who similarly was stuck in circumstances that didn't serve to foster her real potential. just the image in my mind of a person who's clever enough to get across algebraic notation in chess by flipping through a book in a few minutes, but was never exposed to the opportunity to learn chess until this moment in someone else's house, and also the particular situation of learning this skill WHILE at someone's place as a call girl, i dunno . i hope im treating this with the grace it deserves but i wanted to build just this particular image in vivid colour while also keeping the reality quite blurry and vague, just to give the reader a sense of where akechi came from while still preserving his limited pov.
my thoughts on the phantom thieves' methods (and how they compare to maruki) are definitely too long and involved to put into a post about this fic chapter specifically, but maybe one day. i also wanna stress im not like... strictly anti-phantom thief or anti-heartstealing lol but i do have thoughts about the philsophy of it and the thieves' hypocrisy WHATEVER that's not for this post. i bring this up only to crow about finding a way to bring up the experience machine (ie maruki's reality) in this fic without it being royal compliant and have it be... hoepfully... sufficiently relevant to the plot. wa hoo! the experience machine came up for the first time back in chapter 4 and im just delighted that i finally got to close that loop. by the way, that experiment is also called the lotus eater machine after the lotus eaters in the odyssey! i dunno that it's actively my favourite thought experiment but it's definitely up there and i think about it a lot.
TITLE DROP
i think i spoke once about what 'as you like it' means. it's obviously the name of the shakespeare play from where 'all the world's a stage' comes, but it has a couple more layers to it as well - akechi's palace is a place where he performs to what he believes other people want or need to see from him - so his appearance is as you like it. and his accusation of the thieves' heartstealing methods is that they twist a person's internal reality to suit their vision - that's the meaning he's taking here, claiming that joker is turning akechi into an unfamiliar new thing, as [joker] like[s] it. you get it.
this running joke of ren really hating vents wasn't something i planned but im attached to it now. prayer circle for his knees
ive basically given up on making sense of samerecarm, which is par for the course for any rpg or video game really where reduction to 0hp/revival are mechanics. like, im inclined to think 0hp is more equivalent to unconsciousness, because... well... otherwise it's pretty cold that they left akechi dead in the engine room without even looking for a way around the wall. lol. but one of mona's revival lines is 'being dead isnt easy!' or something like that, so i kind of just give up and assume it's video game logic you'r enot meant to look at too hard lol. the way i reconcile it for my purposes is to say it's a sort of metaverse-exclusive state of being which is not quite dead but sort of in a limbo state wher eyou can be brought back with specific revival magic, which i refer to as being down. that's uhhh, that's different from the battle status of down... which you get after being hit with a crit/technical/weak skill... look, don't think about it. joker in crow's arms.
this is literally meaningless i just wanted to include a cameo of my very favourite persona q2 battle theme.
#rookfic#thank you sunlitpearl on ao3 for asking. all my love forever to everyone who enables me to yap non fucking stop#rookposting#i need to actually have a tag for this fic specifically because i talk about it so much#AYLI#< there#long post#eta i forgot to mention but goro figuring out the stamp thing but continuing to play along anyway#was very very very loosely based on my experience as a kiddo with santa HAHAHA#i was 3 y/o and clocked that 'santa' used the same wrapping paper as my parents. and i thought that was sus.#then i asked mother if santa was real and she went 'do you want the truth' and i was like well never mind. i know NOW.#idiot smartass toddler!! i was so pleased about figuring it out i didnt think about cutting off the present supply.#kept playing along for the fun of it tho although 'santa' started receiving carefully price matched lists from me instead of letters#anyway#tangent from my childhood tales

Hello! Loved your fanfic recommends part 3 ;)
i know you’re probably busy and tired from putting that list together (and such a large quantity oh my god :o) but do you ahve ANTI- harems? I think you included some in you list but i missed it or something.. if your not to busy can you pls recommend some?
-anon💜🪐
Hello again! Glad you liked em!!! I AM busy but I also need a break so... List Time it is!
There are definitely some anti-harem fics in my previous lists, but here's those plus a few more! My notes are less detailed because I'm Tired lol.
You all know the drill by now; Finished/Oneshot, Ongoing/Unfinished, Discontinued/Hiatus...
No ship tags because oftentimes its Complicated, and/or I don't remember the specifics jskfhkjd,,, it's been a while since I've read some of these.
Also, I'm not including warnings for this one because anti-harems are often prone to being on the darker side and/or containing NSFW content or discussions of, so I'll let y'all use your best judgement here.
Make sure to read the tags and most importantly enjoy yourself!
=========================
There are a couple I know I've added to my third list (The Understudy (F) and The Eye of a Judge (O)) which are both by the same author and as mentioned in my previous notes, The Understudy is THE anti-harem fic; the one that started it all! So those are both obvious additions to me.
Other than that there's also...
There's Still Magic - Finished
I like this one! Follows the structure of a typical anti-harem, and it does it well!!! Just read and enjoy the drama :]
One Step At A Time - Ongoing/Unfinished
This is one of those anti-harems where the reader just kinda... ends up with their own harem in the end ajkdhfjkshdf but still! I enjoyed the drama in this one, also I love Marianna 🥺 She's cool...
do you live with abusive skeletons? stick to the original timeline and fuck their dad! - Finished
Gaster/Reader anti harem. You pull a power move and fuck their dad!!! There's also a revised version, but I haven't read that one yet sdjhskdf but it's there if you want to read it too!!
A Skull-pture of true happiness - Ongoing/Unfinished
Anti-harem except the reader has met Edge before and accidentally left him with a Surprise ;))... (it's a baby. They knocked him up jkhfjkd) This one has soo much drama...
This Life is Mine - Indefinite Hiatus
What if you had the typical anti-harem experience then a reset happens... except you remember all that happened, and are determined to not repeat your mistakes.
artist’s depiction - Ongoing/Unfinished
Similar concept as previous, except the reader DIED. I really enjoy Reset/Save-adjacent shenanigans, and both of these fics are very fun because of that!
Consequences - Ongoing/Unfinished
The reader ALSO fucking dies in this one, but this time they come back as a ghost along with Classic Pap :] The GF in this is... she's fascinating, is what I'll say. I've recc'ed this and the next fic before (in my second rec list!) but I'm adding both here for ease of access LMAO.
Resisting the Current - Ongoing/Unfinished
RTC lives in the back of my head permanently!!! It's an anti-harem except the GF is ALSO into you (and is also your ex!!!!). I love Quinn sooooooo much <33
We're Not Gonna Take It - Oneshot
As the title implies, the reader decides they aren't going to take the anti-harem treatment, and gets the fuck outta dodge. They bump into another set of skeletons though :]
Bound to love - Ongoing/Unfinished
This is actually an AU based on the author's other fic (the first in the series) but that one isn't an anti-harem and this one is lol.
I find the concept really interesting- the reader has met Coffee in previous timelines, where Coffee appears to them and them alone, only for the world to be reset every time. It's neat and dramatic in a way typical to anti-harems.
Also, the author also has another anti-harem fic, with a focus on Swapfell Sans ^-^!!
=========================
Much much shorter list lolol. I'm sure there are others that I've read, but these are the ones I have on hand atm ;P!!
FIC REC MASTERLIST
#💜🪐 anon#inbox#doozis fic recs#antiharem edition!#i got a bit sick of reading anti-harems for a while#in the same way i got sick of reading reverse harems back in the day sdjfhsdjk#but i hope you enjoy these! if you havent read them already that is lolol#xx im outta recs for the moment i think. i still gotta build up my bookmarks for ut again#and im still solidly working thru a bunch of tf fics skjdfjksjkfhjs#i have so many tabs open.

So the alchemy rules don't thrill me, but you know what really, really does? the fact that Ed is ahving to square with the fact that he does in fact do what he can for the state and work for the state, because that is the devil's bargain he made. And that the outside world, people like Lyra, are never going to see that devil's bargain, because it would be foolish to let them know.
One of my favorite things in the world, is to think about the appearance of goodness. I am not interested in it! I genuinely care little if people think that I am whatever, if I know that I DO the right thing. Not "not to do bad things" that's just saying that laziness is goodness, but to do good things, and to have the courage to appear the bad guy. That, to me, is character. But it sucks!!! It sucks a lot!!*
So Ed is having to deal with all that, that he is going to always appear to be a faithful solider or whatever the fuck ever, and he has to both let and MAKE people believe that.
(We went and saw RRR the other night--so much fucking fun--and I think it's part of the reason I prefer Ram)
Please read me before commenting or sending an ask!

dreeeeeaaaaa my girl. i want to hold her and put her in my pocket. random question but do you ahve an fc for her in your head or is she totally made up? love her either way
thank you so much!!!! she's a baby of my own making, so comments like this make me especially emotional. i'm so glad you like her because i too want to put her in my pocket and keep her safe (i say as i put her through trauma after trauma lmao). i actually do have someone in mind, and she's hidden in the ignite header lmao. i don't want to ruin anyone's imaginary fun, so feel free to pretend you didn't read this, but i've always pictured her as courtney eaton in my head—specifically her look in yellowjackets bc you know i support mentally unwell women in all their endeavors and i'm, y'know, queer as fuck.

Name: Rosa (Rosita) Reyes (she/they)
Dorm: Ramshackle
Grade/Class: 1-A (teacher aid)
Birthday: Oct. 30th (scorpio)
Age: 18
Height: 162 cm
Dominant hand: ambidextrous
Homeland: ???
Club: Art and Gargoyles Study
Hobby: gardening, writing
Pet Peeves: fruit stickers
Favorite Food: Sopita de Conchas
Least Favorite Food: Jalapenos Rellenos
Talent: First Aid/Guns
☆☆☆
Although wary and awkard around everyone and everything at first, Rosita is quick to come out of her shell with a welcoming smile. Lacking in any magical abilites, she's makes up with it with her big heart and resourcefulness. With determination and a bit of dumb luck, Rosa quickly adapts to her new life in Twisted Wonderland.
☆☆☆
Background Information
+ Rosita is from a big family, though she tends not to speak much about them because she gets sad quickly. She has often mentioned her abuelita and abuelito. And her childhood friend/crush, Isabela.
+ She's not the smartest, actually she's quite dense when it come to anything academic, which often lead to her planning study groups with anyone that wants to join. (she ends up getting distracted or falling asleep way to quickly)
+ Rosa was actually in the process of applying to various colleges before she got transported. So to say she was angry about having to start over is an understatement.
+ She ranges from being a student to a teacher aid. She's often helping Crewel and Trein with grading papers and around the classroom. Every Thurday and Tuesday afternoon, she can be found in Crowley's office helping out with his work. She sucks at physical activity, so she doesn't really help Vargas.
+ Sam gave Rosita a part-time job at his shop! She works pretty often, but her schedule is inconsistant.
+ On her first day at Ramshackle, she became quick friends with the ghosts! They're besties.
+ She and Rook are actually good friends. Rosa finds him amusing and finds herself having a ton of fun with him. She and Rook often go on long rants about beauty or their current hyper-fixations. She feels heard when she's with him.
+ She's also super confortable with Malleus. Their first encounter was extremely embarrassing on her part, she cringes everytime. But they grow really close. They often get lost in converstions and can be seen reading together.
+ The first years adore her and she adores them! They remind her of her little siblings, so she often goes big sister mode, especially during overblots.
☆☆☆
a/n: here's my twst oc! i love her so much and lowkey I'm extremely nervous about posting this lol. she's a little bit of a self insert, but I tried to make her into her own person. Apparently it's much harder then it looks like. Anyways, if you ahve any questions about her, feel free to ask!

AU reincarnation Mikasa gets a second chance after she was killed by her husband (I don't know, Porco or someone else). It was a loveless political marriage, and Mikasa was merely a puppet in her family. To avoid a similar fate in her second life, she decides to make an offer to her ex-husband's greatest rival, Eren, who was the ruler of a neighboring kingdom. Knowing the future, she tries to convince Eren to agree to a marriage that was to last three years.
it's giving like every webtoon i've ever read and u know i'm not opposed to it. Tbh i LOVE the angst of the ones when the husband like doesn't love her, but then he slowly starts falling in love with her. or UGH if she's the villainess, and she makes Eren fall in love with her or something, those are always fun, honestly webtoons ahve the monopoly on isekai, like no one will ever do it better, there's a reason it's it's own genre

Hi! I just met you and I love you! <3 I just read your Marvel 6260 and it's awesome! your versions of Doc Ock and MJ are truly the best in this universe, and let's not get started with Pete, this adorkable nerd it's an angel in every sense. But what I love the most is your Harry Osborn; I really love that guy and the trope you manage with him, I mean heck yeah, there are too many Harrys who tries to impress his father, make him resent it for once!! If there's no problem, talk more about him
ok im about to go through so many 6260 asks i ahve been staring at these for so long im so sorry. i never answered them.
I LOVEE HARRY OSBORN SO MUCH hes always been one of my favourite spiderman characters (thank u to the raimi movies i grew up with) but its so tiring to always see him like, try to live up to what his father wants him to be, even if he doesnt like his father (asm2 moment), let him be MEAN!!!!!!!!
not really sure what else to expand upon with harrys character, obviously his home life isnt that good, but a lot of his character does kind of revolve around his relationship with his father -- i mean obviously he's a good friend to pete and mj, but just like other incarnations, norman has a big impact on him.
i like to think harry isnt an intrinsically nice guy, instead being fairly neutral, while peter is the good samaritan of the group and mj bending rules all the time. he cares about pete and mj because theyre the only ones (in his mind at least) that genuinely care about him for his personality and sense of self, and not just for his money or status, like some other students might do (like flash or smth)
but he also likes to stick it to his father, so that leads to him doing something fun with his friends, but purposefully doing something that his dad wouldn't approve of -- setting off firecrackers in a parking lot with mj, wasting tons of money on fast/junk food, instead of studying going out to the movies or arcade or something. anything to escape the oppressive nature of his home life.
harry also dresses very business-casual/formal, mainly because of his father, but he definitely has some sweatpants and casual wear stored away somewhere that he wears on the off-day. though i like to imagine him being a bit of a skater kid, and its really funny to imagine him in his long coat trying to learn how to do a kickflip while wearing docs lol

hey wait a sec i dont think i sent you any characters for that thing yet
anyway . mori, jouno, nikolai, or bram ? u can pick any of them <3 have fun
Cherry asked me about Jouno too so i’ll do his thing in their ask👍
aaanyways Mori!!!
first impression : i didn’t know it was him at first, when he got trapped in Anne’s room i thought it was just a street doctor and i don’t think i made the connection that it was him until way later + i didn’t especially care for him on my first read through tbh
impression now : good god his character is dumbed down by the fandom, unfortunately my sister is victim to that as well. i tried talking to her about mori once because neat little dude! complex! i enjoy his character! and she kept breaking in every 2 mins to tell me he’s a pedo like i didn’t hear her the first few times
i still think of him as a pedo but god there is more to him?? i haven’t actually studied him yet but he is definitely a more complex character
favorite moment : the scene in wan where he receives dazais new years cards and the way the dub delivered that line is so funny, otherwise probably when he’s trapped in anne’s room
story idea : i have no ideas unfortunately
favorite hc : he paired dazai and chuuya together on purpose
favorite relationship : i ahve none but i do like the way he interacts with the rest of the pm
unpopular opinion : he does not deserve to be dumbed down as much as he is
nikolai!!!
first impression : “oh fuck he’s pretty and insane”
current impression : complex little clown dude i love him so much i could analyze him forever and still discover new stuff
favorite moment : HIS FIRST INTRODUCTION THE WAY THAT PAGE IS DRAWN IS ACTUALLY SO COOL if i got amnesia and forgot everything that’d be the singular thing id remember
story idea : i need him to break down and build himself back up again piece by piece until he’s satisfied [he won’t ever be satisfied] (love language: putting my characters through the meat grinder a few times)
favorite relationship : can’t choose between siglai fyosiglai so both
unpopular opinion : i think most of my opinions line up with fandom interpretations so i think im good here
favorite hc : little fuck can cook but only and only when he feels like it, otherwise it’s a complete disaster
aaand bram
first impression : “haha little sword man”
current impression : i don’t know; i like him <3
favorite moment : him asking kenji to tend to his nonexistent estate
story idea : i have no idea mandbxnxjs
favorite relationship : him and ayas little dad daughter thing is so cute
favorite hc : i don’t ship kunibram but i find it really funny if bram sees his wife in kunikida and once i read a comic where he kept going up to the ada and asking kunikida about brams wife or something like that
unpopular opinion : he looked really good with his legs but i kinda wish it was paced a little bit slower
