Hasty Decisions (All Might x Reader) R18+ Part 1

*I haven't wrote and published in a long time. This is a long one that's been in the works. Please let me know about any thoughts. I'll post part 2 in a week* Enjoy :)

*******

It was irritating at first, not knowing where he really was during his daily escapades. We had agreed on several things when we first started hooking up: 

Don’t call or message each other during work 

He would be the one to arrange our meetings (locations, time etc)

Don’t reveal his quirk or truth about him to anyone 

And lastly, refer to him as Toshi when we weren’t working

Truly, I don’t think I’ve met someone who required such unique conditions until I started seeing Toshinori. We had originally met during a hero conference I attended on behalf of my agency. My quirk was a unique one of sorts. You see, what it lacks in physical damage, it thrives in psychological damage. My quirk is Persuasion. I could control people, not in the way that brainwashing would, but I could read people’s thoughts and influence their decisions to a certain extent. In many ways, I can be the annoying voice that pesters your every waking move or the voice of reason. I don’t need to talk to people to have my quirk take effect, but all I need is concentration to immobilize someone. 

However, the downside of my quirk is that I get completely isolated in my conversation and become unable to listen to the world around me, leaving me physically vulnerable. Another thing is that if someone is incredibly strong-willed, my quirk would have a limited amount of influence on them. Because I can’t tell how strong someone’s resolve is by looking at them, I carry around a bo-staff for my protection as I had been trained with it, as well as in martial arts, since I was a child. Because these are dangerous times, my bo-staff also has a unique feature. Thanks to my friends in support development, it can expand into a shield to protect myself if I’m in a situation where there are bullets involved and I can’t control the shooter. It makes the bo staff heavy, but if it protects me, then I’m willing to get stronger to use it. They were also kind enough to create shoes that changed into roller blades on my command so that I could chase down villains faster.

Needless to say, my quirk and my support gear were usually great conversation starters at social functions. That’s where All Might and I started our relationship of sorts. I was at the conference for half a day and I was exhausted. The last conference room where my presence was required was relatively empty. I was on a sofa and in the middle of drinking my second flute of champagne when All Might walked in. I was surprised at first, because I hadn’t expected him to be in this specific meeting. Nobody really seemed to make a fuss at his presence, but it was only then that I realized that was because most of the heroes attending that meeting were his coworkers from UA. I definitely needed another drink after that realization, so I stood and walked to the table spread that had the free champagne and snacks. I picked up another flute, turned around, and bumped into someone. When I looked up, I realized that it was All Might and I became a little flustered. He was significantly taller than I had expected and I barely reached his torso.

“Shit. Oh, excuse me, I wasn’t paying attention.” I said, embarrassed.

“No, I should apologize. I was distracted too.” He responded by putting his hands up defensively.

“Yeah, free drinks and food can definitely do that to people.” I joked and took a sip of my champagne. He let out a thunderous laugh in response, which made a few people glance in our direction. I was surprised that he actually laughed. Once he calmed down, he asked for my hero name and where I worked. 

“Casanova. I work at the Gunhead Hero Office.” 

“Really? I think I might’ve seen you around before. You skate and fight with a bo staff, correct?”

“Yes, actually. But that has nothing to do with my quirk.” 

“Persuasion, right? I’m pretty sure I’ve seen you at UA before during a Sports Festival.” Wow. The fact that All Might knew who I was, remembered that we both went to UA, and somehow remembered my quirk and fighting abilities had me a little flustered. 

“I’m surprised you know all that. I don’t believe we spoke before since we attended UA different years. Once you went Pro, everyone knew who you were.” I smiled politely.

 Once I finished speaking, there was an announcement from the person on the panel that the conference was about to start.

“Such a shame to cut this conversation so short, would you care to sit with me?” I asked, gesturing towards the sofa in the back of the room.

“Sure! I like to sit in the back since my height can make it difficult for people that are shorter than me to see.” 

“It’s hard for me to see past someone who is average height. I’d be bamboozled if you suddenly sat in front of me, so I appreciate it.” He chuckled and sat beside me on the sofa, pulling out a comically small notepad and pen from his outrageously bright yellow suit pocket.

The lecture was definitely on the slow side, mostly discussing basic organization techniques I was already familiar with, but All Might seemed to be engrossed in it, judging by how rapidly he was making note of everything. At first I wasn’t interested in reading his thoughts, but given the boring nature of this lecture, the idea was extremely tempting. Who wouldn’t want to know what the number one hero was thinking about? So I took a peak and as it would turn out, he had a lot going on in there. 

His rapid moving thoughts showed that he was scared that I was going to try to read his mind and “find out something”. I also saw myself in a few favorably lewd positions that I wouldn’t oppose being in if given the opportunity. Along with that, he was also worried about storage space and if he should buy the exact folder the speaker recommended. It was quite amusing actually. His ability to gather and organize information was amazing, as would be expected for the number one hero. I didn’t mention anything to him, but smirked in satisfaction as I took another sip of my champagne. There was about 15 minutes left of the presentation, so I decided to take my chance and see if I could sneak away and have some fun with him.

“It’s so empty here tonight. I half expected that more people would still be here. The seminars around this time are rather dull, but the drinks are definitely worth my time.” I whispered to try to distract him.

“What? Oh yes, it is quite empty isn’t it?” He said quite nervously. I could hear him start to get anxious and thinking about wanting to leave soon; something pertaining to a shortage of time. He wondered if I would accept wanting to leave with him since I looked bored. What a perfect opportunity.

“Hey, do you want to get out of here? ‘Play hooky’ if you know what I mean? I doubt my agency would care about my disappearance in the last 15 minutes of the ‘Improve Your Record Filing Technique’ seminar.”

“You just read my mind.” He said in an intended joking manner, but I could see sweat drip down his neck and various thoughts flashed too rapidly for me to comprehend. 

“Hm. Maybe. I pretty much already know everything they’re sharing, so I can help you out with organization since you practically wrote down everything the speaker said.” I teased, finishing the rest of my flute.

He blushed and scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment.“I’d appreciate it.”

I didn’t feel bad tapping into his mind, especially not after he offered me his arm and led me towards the nearest exit. Once we got out of the building and onto the empty sidewalk, I decided to at least keep the conversation going.

“So where to? Your place, mine, or a hotel?”

“What? Oh! I’m sorry, I think you may have misunderstood my intentions.” He said nervously, backing away from me.

“And what exactly are your intentions, Mr. All Might?” I said, leaning against the wall and crossing my arms. He became flustered and rubbed the back of his neck. Probably a nervous habit. 

“I thought that perhaps you would like me to walk you home or recommend some storage folders. You know, something harmless of that nature.”

“Hm. I won’t do anything you don’t want to All Might. Like keeping you from something. I know you’re quite short on time, so I’ll make this quick: I would like to see you under more private conditions. Only if you’d want. I don’t do these things often, but you were quite flustered earlier and perhaps I assumed too much. But if that’s not what you want, then we can drop this and move on.” He looked like he was going to faint from shock before cooling down and looking at me seriously.

“Did you read my thoughts?”

“Not everything.” I avoided direct eye contact and looked away.

He stepped forward and closed the distance between us. He placed a hand on my shoulder with a firm grip, making me tense. His piercing blue eyes sent chills down my spine as our bodies almost touched. My face was already flushed from the alcohol, but now I could feel it heating up due to his proximity. 

“I kindly ask you not to do that again. I have some things I’d rather not share with the public and I intend to keep it that way. So if you want this to work out how you plan to, we’re going to have to set up some ground rules.”

“Which you rightfully deserve.”

“The first rule is simple. Don’t read my mind without asking. I have a hard time trusting people who invade my privacy. But since you were at least upfront with me, I’ll make an exception this time. Second, I decide where we go. We’ll go to your place since you offered. And lastly, please call me Toshinori when we’re not working.”

“Right this way then Toshinori. It’s a 10 minute walk from here.” 

“Are you sober?”

“What?” I stumbled slightly.

“You drank at least two flutes of champagne before we left. Did you drink before?”

I had to think about how I wanted to answer that. In truth, I don’t remember how much I drank today. Do I lie and tell him no so I could have a once in a lifetime godly experience? Or should I be honest and risk losing that opportunity altogether? I’m thinking clearly aren’t I? I hastily made my decision.

“No.”

He stood close to me and stared me down. I looked back with the same intensity. Hopefully I would pass. Champagne had a low alcohol content. 

He grunted lightly.

“You lead the way then, Casanova.”

Success.

“Please just call me Nova.” 

“Alright then, Nova.”

The walk was quiet, and like he had asked, I didn’t pry into his mind. As the walk progressed, so did my excitement. Sure things may have started off kind of shaky and my buzz was killed, but I’m used to the distrust towards people with mind control based quirks. Besides, this was only meant to be a hookup so I couldn’t really be bothered to try to change his thoughts about me or my quirk. The damage was already done. 

“Please come in.” I said once we reached my door.

“Pardon the intrusion.” He said as we entered and took off our shoes. 

“Believe me, you definitely aren’t intruding. Would you care for a drink? I have sake, wine, whiskey, vodka, the list goes on.”

“I can’t drink. I’m sorry.” 

I took immediate notice of how his emphasis was on can’t instead of don’t. It was a word usage that was subtle and piqued my interest, but I decided not to pry.

“No problem. I can make mocktails, but there’s also tea or water if you’d prefer. I don’t have any roommates and my neighbors are out of town. We can be as loud or as quiet as you-” I was cut off by his body that pressed me against the wall and his hand cupped my face. Internal panic was setting in. I felt claustrophobic and swallowed a lump that began to form in my throat. His piercing blue eyes looked me up and down and he leaned down to kiss me. He was surprisingly gentle, almost as if he was afraid of hurting me. My panic subsided with his reassuring kisses and I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed back. The height difference between us was comical, I was standing on my tiptoes whereas he had to crouch down significantly to reach me. His hand slid from my cheek, down my shoulder and found its way to my hip.

Thank god I made the right decision.

Atla x Ninjago

I am so surprised by the small number of Avatar and Ninjago AUs/Crossovers, genuinely thought there'd be loads more, so I thought of my own :D

(Now, this isn't going to follow the Avatar story really, but the Fire Nation still attacked because they had their whole industrial revolution. They're still feared by the other nations and the people are still against anything Fire Nation. Does an Airbender genocide happen? Not to the same extent anyways. Maybe the same way the southern pole was attacked, the Fire Nation focused on only two temples or something. Speaking of the poles, they were left mostly untouched with only a few attacks ever happening)

I'll start in the fire nation. A fire bender met a water bender in the Earth Kingdom and they fell in love. They lived in the Fire Nation and had two kids. They were delighted when Kai started bending, Ray told the whole neighborhood. Nya, being three years old, wanted to make fire too. She was told she could start bending when she got to Kai's age. And on one hot summer's day the next year, she bent water.

Her family was delighted. Maya made her best chewy cookies. Ray did not shut up about it for weeks, he just Had to say how proud he was every time he saw her. Six year old Kai was utterly delighted that he now had someone new to play fight with! Their parents, however, were quick to stop them. No one could see Nya water bending. If she wanted to bend, she had to stick to small things in the house, watering the plants, washing the dishes or making shapes of animals or people to go along with stories, like Maya does at bedtime.

(Kai always wanted to make the funny shapes, but when he got his dad to teach him they could never make them look as friendly with all the sharp edges of their flames.)

They end up moving house quite a few times due to neighbors hearing "excessive splashing" (and Kai shouting in protest every time it so happened to be dumped on him) from their yard. You couldn't keep Nya Smith inside doing baby shapes. Not when Kai got to practice out in the open all day if he wanted to. Not when Kai got to go to a special class after school to get better. She loved her brother, but it just wasn't fair.

Shortly after Nya's eleventh birthday they moved again. But it'd be different this time. They'd be going to the South Pole to learn water bending properly. But they'd be leaving Ray and Kai behind. It certainly wasn't their first choice, but it was the best one they could think of. They couldn't just stop Nya from bending all her life, that'd be cruelty. So they organized the trip, said their goodbyes, and set off.

The first thing they did once they arrived was buy Nya a couple of parkas. She was absolutely frozen. She may be a water bender, but she grew up in the fire nation. The next order of business was to find a teacher. Maya said she had gotten a bit rusty and that it'd be better to find a master anyways. Luckily for them, the local master was available. Sorla was impressed by their story and agreed to teach Nya water bending. Nya already had the basics and learned the more advanced moves very quickly, surpassing older students

(AAAAAAA I had so much more written but it just didn't save.)

Everything Nya learned, she learned to perfection. So she was getting really annoyed with Sorla making her stop everything for a day and focus on Ice. Nya did not get ice. She couldn't understand it. She couldn't bend it, it was solid. It was stubborn, like her, and refused to listen to her.

Besides, who cared if Nya could bend ice or not?! She's good at everything else, why does she have to be good at making ice cubes! She'll just make up for it with her Water bending, she's one of the best at that! Luckily for her, she'll have a new friend soon enough who'll have her back.

-----------------

Zane Julien was born and raised in the South Pole by his father Dr. Julien. While he has the title Doctor, he's no healer. He makes gadgets for the town to help in their daily lives. He's a friendly man but he keeps mostly to himself up in his house with his son.

When Zane started bending, Dr. Julien was delighted with him. He set out to find the best teacher that very day. He found an old friend, who had left for the Earth Kingdom years ago, had returned and started teaching "specialized bending". Zane got started with him a couple of days later.

When this teacher started to teach Zane the basics of water bending, Zane was having quite a bit of trouble. He couldn't understand the flow of water, a slight obstacle in the way of learning water bending. His form was stiff and any water he did bend was choppy. His teacher decided to give ice a try before giving up on him. He was so glad he did.

Zane took to ice bending like a turtleduck to water, mastering every move he was taught and sculpting any object asked for in seconds. Need ice in a drink? Odd request for the South Pole but Zane's got you. Need a chair? Zane has your back. Need an ice spike to spear the heart of your enemy? You've lost him. Zane will use every defensive move he knows before ever attempting to go offense. He will always fight for those close to him and protect them with his life.

Zane eventually became known in the outskirts of town as the Ice Guy. Few knew of his inability to actually bend water, but all respected his skill. Any curious children who haven't quite got the hang of certain techniques can always be sure that Zane will help in any way he can. Any non-benders who just want to see some cool tricks always go home with a sculpture of their favorite animal.

Once, while making the trip into town to get the weekly shopping, Zane hears many frustrated shouts come from a clearing. Always the curious type, he goes toward the sound to see what the problem is. He finds a young girl punching a tree and an older woman watching her, waiting patiently for her to calm down.

"I don't know why you still make me do this!" The young girl groaned. The woman bowed her head like she was preparing for a rant she had heard many times before. "I'll never need to use ice if I'm already a Master Waterbender! No one even cares about ice, I don't, this tree doesn't and I'm sure that man over there doesn't!" She pointed at Zane, who was very surprised to be roped into this argument. The girl growled and started punching the tree again while the woman gave Zane a small smile. "Don't mind her, she can get quite mad sometimes."

"I actually do care about ice" Zane said. Nya paused and turned towards him. "I wasn't asking you, I just said it because you were standing there!" Zane made an 'o' with his mouth in understanding. "Why do you even care about ice?" Nya asked as she walked up to him. "It's a frozen block of water that doesn't move, you can't do anything with it!"

Zane thought about it a moment before giving his answer. Would he really entrust this information with this girl he just met? "Because I cannot bend anything else." Apparently he will. Nya gave him a funny look. "You can bend ice... and nothing else? Not even water?" Zane shook his head. "Water never really came to me, even when I sought it out. It was only from pure boredom my teacher even tried ice."

"You can't be a waterbender then," Sorla said. "We'll have to call you an Icebender." A small smile came to her face with her suggestion. Nya rolled her eyes, still in her bad mood. "There's no such thing as an 'icebender' Master Sorla, he's still a waterbender." "But I cannot bend water, just ice" Zane reminded her "I could show you a few simple moves if you'd like." Nya just huffed and crossed her arms. "Come back tomorrow," Sorla suggested. "She might be more agreeable after a nights rest."

Zane agreed and left to go get the shopping, but not before asking Nya her favorite animal.

Nya arrived home with a sculpture of a badgerfrog that looked like the sculptor only had a vague idea of what the animal was.

In my life - Daemon x Ofc

Dedicated to @lady-phasma and @em-writes-stuff-sometimes for their help in inspiring me and giving me great Ideas!

Danarra Maeanor stood in a line of other young women, the daughters of minor nobles, banking families, and merchants, each of them vying for the extremely coveted position as Lady-In-Waiting to Lady Laena Velaryon who was living in Pentos with her Husband, Daemon Targaryen. The chittering of light airy voices and bird-like sounds of quiet laughter drew her back into the realm of reality than the realm in her mind. Then the door creaked open and the Lady Laena entered the room, like a beacon of finality. She slowly approached Danarra and looked her up and down, assessing her. Danarra had watched the faces of other young ladies fall and the once comforting chatter turning into cold and lonely silence.

“You girl, what is your name?” The lady inquired as Danarra looked up at her and curtsied slightly, inclining her head slightly downwards. “I am danarra meanor, the daughter of rhysan meanor.” Danarra replied, trying to make her voice sound more confident than it actually was. The lady only hummed in approval and gave her a slight nod telling her to rise. “Tell me Danarra, what do you think of Pentos?” Danarra tried not to look bewildered, but she felt her eyes widen instinctively as the lady chuckled quietly, a smile gracing her lovely face. “Pentos is alright, but even the other seasons have their own personal warmth that I personally seek no quarrel over.” Danarra replied, her response coaxing out a laugh from Laena.

“Come, let me show you around.” Laena said as she headed to the door, waiting for Danarra to finally follow suit. Once they exited the room Danarra caught a final glimpse of the other ladies who were glaring at her with envious eyes. “Pay them no mind, Danarra.” She replied as her warm chocolate eyes meeting Danarra’s violet ones as footsteps began to ring out from the other end of the hall, causing Danarra to perk up. “Mother! Mother!” Twin voices called out to Laena as a smile grew on her face. “My girls!” She said brightly, as she knelt down to their level and peppered their smiling faces with kisses. “These are my girls. Baela,’ Laena said as she gestured to the taller one of the duo, “and Rhaena.” She said as the younger one smiled shyly. “Hello Girls, I am Danarra.” Danarra said with a gentle coaxing smile, trying to show them that she was not one to be wary of.

“And here comes their father.” Laena said with a chuckle as Danarra gulped nervously, having heard tales of the rogue prince and his war in the step stones. “Hello my dear ones.” Daemon said, a gentle softness in his voice until he locked eyes with Danarra, his demeanor shifting almost immediately. “And who might you be?” He asked, eyes narrowing slightly as Danarra curtsied, about to make her introduction. “I-“ She began, but Laena cut in, saving Danarra the time. “She is Danarra, and she is to be one of main ladies in waiting.” Laena said with a nod, as Daemon only nodded.

”Well Danarra, it is a pleasure to meet you.” He replied and then turned to leave. And now Danarra did not know what to think of the walking enigma that was the rogue prince.

In honor of Yuri Week I present to you,

the lifestealers as women tierlist

[rey-129-fan]

Well, it's been a while since I've posted any fanfic... Let's change that.

Good news! I'm not dead! My brain did try to get me to do things that could unalive myself for a bit, and then I lost nearly an entire side of my family over the span of 3 years, but I'm still here and still kicking! And I have two new puppies who are adorable and so loving.

Now for this story, this is inspired by a few posts I saw on @theglamorousferal, mostly the one about Amity Parkers going to college in Gotham and buying a hotel (I'm making it a co-op student house, but I've never lived in one, so if something's unacceptably wrong, tell me, if not, artistic license), but also the one where our main Trio buy a building to set up shop there, and wind up adopted my Jason (I swear, I saw that post after I wrote the first chapter, but it just fit so well).

***

Honestly, Amity Park was weird long before the Fentons moved there- the original settlers named the nearby lake Eerie, and it wasn’t after the Great Lake.  It’s just that before the Fentons’ machine punched a hole through reality and created a permanent doorway to the land of spirits and ghosts, the weirdness was not as blatant.

Prior to that, Amity Parkers were some of the few that could move to Gotham without suffering a breakdown that was common for new arrivals.  Now there was a slight dip in newcomers for about a decade or two after the Bat made his debut and then the crazies that followed him, but then Amity Parkers got used to the spirits of the dead wandering around following the aforementioned punching through reality.

All this to say that Gotham Universities were a rather common destination for young Amity Park adults seeking higher education.

Now because of this, there were always apartments advertising themselves for people from the small town.  They, after all, tended to not have a breakdown after their fifth rogue attack and just pack up and leave halfway through their lease.  But it got very annoying having to sift through all the advertisements when looking for a place to stay- something Danny Fenton saw his older sister go through when she got in to Gotham City University.  The boy then shared what he was witnessing with his two best friends- Tucker Foley and Sam Manson.  Tucker offered to help filter out the spam, which Danny’s sister Jazz thanked him for but turned down.  Sam… Sam instead got thinking.

Sam had been to Gotham a few times in her life.  She had an idea of the areas closest to the schools and how much those should cost.�� And looking at the letters Jazz was getting, the offers were a little too high for a regular college student to afford.  Sam was also familiar with how many hotels were not being used in Gotham- people building them in hopes tourists would come to stay while visiting the East Coast, tourists that could not be convinced to visit due to the high crime rate and the lack of activities or places of interest in the city itself.

She quickly went to work, looking in to these empty hotels.  She was rather upset by their numbers and put together a spreadsheet of them, with details like number of rooms, any amenities they may have, and nearby landmarks.  She then grabbed her two dorks and marched to Casper High’s Community Outreach director.

Now Sam’s presentation raised a few eyebrows, mostly because it was in a completely different state, but Sam shot back that because of the efforts to incorporate the town’s new ghostly residents and provide them with helpful ways to feed their obsessions- efforts led by the Fenton family- Amity Park had very few homeless, and those that were had a huge community safety net to help them get back on their feet.  Additionally, with how many people moved between the city and the town, helping the city could be argued to also be helping the town.

The Outreach Director just sighed and gave Same the green light to at least draft and send out a proposal to the powers that be in Gotham, saying that there wasn’t much that could be done before they got backing and approval.  Sam thanked them before leaving, Danny and Tucker trailing behind.

She was back the next day with a draft of her proposal and a list of who to send it to.

Since returning from the dead in the eyes of the public, Jason Todd was often contacted by groups trying to use the Wayne fortune to fund their own personal projects.  They thought Jason would be the easiest to con- sorry, persuade- since he was a former street kid unlike the rest of his family.  Thus surely he would know just how much this new building with low income housing would help the people of Gotham- it even came with a pool and gym!

Yeah, he did know how much the people of Gotham needed housing, but $2K a month was not affordable when you’re barely making $30K a year!  Oh and the pool and gym were only available for those who could shell out an additional $2K a month.  Jason knows, he read the whole document carefully.

God, sometimes it was hard to tell who was worse, the psychos in Blackgate or real estate investors.  And sadly, he couldn’t just pop a bullet in their heads and be done with it because 1) it would raise too many questions and 2) it would make Bruce get all sad and mopey- again.  Jason just did not have the mental energy to put up with that on top of the rest of his life as a crimelord/vigilante/long-lost adoptive second son of a billionaire.

All this to say, he was not impressed when he first glanced over a proposal to convert the unused hotels around the city into housing units- especially since it was from someone that did not live in Gotham.

Manson?  Wasn’t there a family with that name that would attend some of Brucie’s galas?  Oh yeah, their family made its fortune off patenting the machine that wrapped toothpicks in plastic, as well as a couple others.  And they had a daughter around Repla- Tim’s age.  Hopefully this wasn’t her trying to be a kiss-ass like her parents.

Jason finished reading and sat back.  The proposal wasn’t too bad.  Converting hotels into apartment buildings would be easier than office buildings, and the suggestion to use ex-convicts that wanted to turn over a new leaf as building managers certainly wasn’t the worst.  Also creating a fund for those that couldn’t afford rent, as well as community kitchens and gardens were certain plusses, though would need to have the right people in charge to make sure they actually worked as planned, and to keep the Court of Owls from messing with it.

Overall, it was something Jason would consider, after some research and maybe talking with the rest of the Bats and Birds.  And if this was from the Manson kid, maybe get Dickie or one of the others to talk to her next time there was a gala in town.  Or talk to her himself, if the Pit wasn’t too loud.

…Dick was probably the better option to talk with her if it came down to it.

There's the first chapter. I'm going to go write the next one. When I have a good log of them, I'll then go and edit them and put them on AO3.

This has no title yet because I suck at naming. Feel free to comment with suggestions for a name, both for the fic/au and for the eventual hotel/co op. As well as any shinanegans and majors/colleges/universities for our liminal young adults.

[bookshelf-in-progress]

Now that I know more about writing, I'm upset at all the writing advice that urged new writers to find the one best way to write stories, when they should be telling us to play with writing techniques like toys.

Don't tell us to avoid certain points of view! Don't box us into the one currently popular prose style! Let us play and see what effects different techniques achieve, so we can learn the best ways to make use of them! Give us a whole ton of possibility instead of one cookie-cutter template!
