To celebrate the one year anniversary of Rusty Quill Gaming coming to its grand finale with episode 218, I am once again sharing the links to the fics I’ve written for RQ this year.

If you're in the mood for angst, let me direct you to these two:

the rest is silence, an alternative take on the final battle and what could have been.

crossing the bar, far, far in the future, Hamid grieves the loss of his last and best of friends.

I hate to ask but I’ve been scouring AO3 and I can’t find a fic I know I read on there. Does anyone know where I can find the fic during 18 month time skip where Wilde’s manacles break and he gets real sleep deprived?

Thank you so much if you know what I’m talking about 😭

Wilde's "business meeting" with Bertie goes exactly the way they both expect it to, and Wilde has plenty of time to consider his actions.

Time skip to after Wilde has died and come back to life, and the realisation that what he has with Zolf is so much better than what he had with anyone like Bertie.

Alternative title: Wilde is fine.

Just reread one of my unfinished fanfics, i even have one chapter more than whats published. I’m so sorry everyone

[miscreantahead]

If Sasha came back from Rome than she would immediately be adopted into the 18 months crowd despite not having been there for the 18 months, no questions asked by anyone, everyone there fucking adores her, we are talking about zolf's bestie, barnes's 'i really wanted you to like me but oops i arrested your friend', Wilde's pun buddy, and Carter's BAR LADY it's a CRIME it's a CRIME this is CRIMINAL WE DESERVE THIS

The worst thing about getting into a fandom long after the source material has ended is that you literally cannot look for fanfiction EVER because it’s ALL SPOILERS

Here we are with a piece to compliment InArduisFidelis' fic, Of Those Who Have Gone Before for the Rusty Quill Big Bang 2023 ran by @pilesofnonsense (This is my first Big Bang participation, it was a lot of fun!)

HELP!!! I NEED TO FIND A FIC

HI!!! i am looking for a fic, i cannot find it anywhere, and i am on the brink of losing my goddamn mind.

please do not judge me for what this fic is or the description i give of it.

this fic is in the rusty quill gaming podcast fandom. it's zolf/azu/hamid in omegaverse (yes yes i know but bear with me). it's set just after hamid and azu get dropped into the quarantine cell in japan, and it's a lot of soft need and self-restraint and worry about consent and support and the most genuine care i have ever read. it is written in character with exactly the anxieties and hesitations and desires the characters would really have. i kid you not, this fic is one of the most beautiful things i have ever read.

unfortunately, i cannot for the absolute life of me remember the fic name or the name of the author. i found it on ao3 some time ago, but it looks like either i'm not using the right search terms or the author has removed it from ao3. (in which case, i truly hope it's okay if i search for it, and that it's still around. i want to respect the author's wishes but i need that fic. i might be being dramatic, but it's what i do best.)

does anyone have any idea what this fic could be??? or where i could find it, or better search terms to use???? (i've already looked on ao3, ff.net, wattpad which was a long shot, and most fanfic archive sites i could find.)

if u have any ideas or know what it is please please please let me know. i wish i had the fic so i could cherish it again.

zoscar hc!!

i feel like when they have their little pub in the epilogue oscar will regularly get flowers just from customers and yk zolf is just zolf and doesnt really interact / care abt it.

but one day oscar will say sth like how sweet it is that mrs [name] (their halfling grandma neightbour who decided she‘s taking care of them since the day they moved in. no objections. she and hamid get along SO well) always brings them flowers. and zolf goes quiet.

the next day, after an exhausting interview with a publisher he finds a small bunch of wild flowers on the counter. later, ofc, he teased zolf abt, but it’s that kinda of extremely fond teasing where you see the genuine happiness in the eyes IM SCREAMING

(if this was intended by wilde? only he knows~)

To celebrate the one year anniversary of Rusty Quill Gaming coming to its grand finale with episode 218, I am once again sharing the links to the fics I’ve written for RQ this year.

Last, but most certainly not least, I want to reshare my longest - and in my opinion best - fic so far: Il Re dei Ladri.

An Alternate Universe in which our teenage protagonists find themselves living in an abandoned theatre in magical Venice and playing the parts of characters from Cornelia Funke’s Der Herr der Diebe.

Over 125.00 words of friendships, heartbreaks, heists, and apologies.

This work features incredible art by @nossorgs​ and @evieebun125​, as well as @angryducktimemachine​. Thank you all so much for your contributions.

[ID: A promo graphic for the Rusty Quill Gaming fanfic “Il Re dei Ladri” (Italian: “The King of Thieves”). In the top half, the graphic features close-ups of fully coloured digital paintings of four main characters of the fic. From left to right, these are Zolf Smith, Hamid Saleh Haroun al-Tahan, Sasha Racket, and Oscar Wilde. Zolf is a white dwarf with blond hair and beard, he is wearing a magical illusionary disguise over his clothes. Hamid is an adolescent brown-skinned halfling wearing fancy clothes and a dragon’s mask. Sasha is a white girl with short black hair, Oscar is a white man with shoulder-length brown hair. Both Sasha and Oscar are visibly angry. The bottom half of the promo graphic features a photo of an elaborate Venetian Carnival’s Mask in gold tones. It has decorative feathers attached to the forehead and is lying on a highly polished stage floor. The background is a midnight blue velvet stage curtain. In golden, looping font, the title “Il Re degli Ladri - the King of Thieves” is written across the curtain, followed by “A Rusty Quill Gaming fanfic, written by Franzis-Frantic-Thoughts, beta read by Who-Needs-Words, with art by Evieebun125 & Nossorgs” /end ID]

Guess who is reading Hope & Smith by @shofics again? Hint: It's me.

Tbh I really went the fuck around and find out route with the light and this one but I think it turned out looking quite nice.

[ID: a digital, fully coloured drawing of Zolf and Wilde from Rusty Quill Gaming. They're specifically shown to reference a scene from the fanfiction mentioned above.

Zolf is a white dwarven man with light blond hair and a braided beard. He's wearing a red dress shirt where the sleeves are folded up to fit him.

Wilde is a white human man with wavy, brown hair. He is wearing a white shirt and has an IV in the back of his left hand.

They are both laying on a bed, Wilde's head is tucked into Zolfs chest while Zolfs cheek rests on his head. Zolf has both hands wrapped around Wilde, his left hand resting on his shoulder while the right one is in his hair. Wilde's left hand is resting at Zolfs waist.

They both seem asleep and there's strong, warm orange light falling from the right side.

The artists signature "ÄngryDuckTimeMachine" is set in the lower left corner. /End ID]

All i want is a fantasy story with people learning to fall in love despite their flaws and their traumas, realising that their companion is perfect for them only to be ripped apart just after they realise. I just need that unselfconscious tenderness while they interact but don't realise the intimacy until at last they do but it's too late and the world or time or fate is against them but at least they know in their hearts they could have had each other if they'd realised it earlier but not anymore. And also maybe they fuck.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Rusty Quill Gaming (Podcast) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Zolf Smith & Oscar Wilde Characters: Zolf Smith, Oscar Wilde (Rusty Quill Gaming) Additional Tags: No. 6: NOT REALISING THEY'RE INJURED, Magic, Hope, 18-Month Time Gap (Rusty Quill Gaming), Zolf Smith is a Cleric of Sasha Racket Summary:

"It's not my blood," Wilde said, wiping off the front of his shirt. The gesture caused more liquid to pool up, soaking through the fabric from the wrong side. "Oh, I guess some of it was," he managed to say before his knees buckled. The knowledge that he'd been injured apparently what his mind had been waiting for before letting go. He crumpled to the floor, a marionette whose strings had been tangled and dropped.
