2022 Writers' Review

It's already two months into the year, but I'm still going to do this, because I think it's such a nice thing. I was tagged by @lavandulacosmos and @natures-marvel thank you! 💕

1. What is your AO3 account?

brownest_goldfish

2. How many words did you write total in 2022?

34'481, according to AO3 stats

It's not a lot of words, but I feel like this was the year I've developed most as a writer so far, especially writing the first chapter of Lamb and the last chapter of my spooktober fic and I'm very proud of that ✨

3. How many fics did you publish in 2022? How many multichapters vs oneshots?

12 fics, 3 multichaptered and 9 oneshots (and of the 3 multichaptered ones only one is finished so you can see that this is not where my strength lies agajsks but i'm trying to do it more and i actually love it!)

4. What was your longest fic? Your shortest fic?

"A Lover in the story" (finished) is the longest at 9987 words but I published 5000 of those in 2023. Otherwise the longest is "A Lamb for Our Love" at 8618 words so far (one of two chapters)

The shortest is "With a smile" at 412 words. The shortness is owed to it being only one scene, more of a picture I imagined after reading Cry Wolf by @roccinan – and since I can't draw, I decide to write it down 🥰

5. What was your most popular fic? Your least popular fic?

I find this so hard to say, because numbers can never really encapsulate this, and every piece of appreciation from anyone for any fic is a gem in itself. But just for simplicity I'll go for Kudos and Hits here:

The one with most Kudos and Hits is funnily one I didn't write for Berlermo, but for "Arcane" as a birthday gift for @stilljustbitten: "Ice blue" got 113 Kudos and 842 Hits, probably owed to the fact that this fandom is just a bit bigger. My most popular Berlermo fic in 2022 in numbers is "Art and Attraction" at 83 Kudos and 755 Hits.

The least popular in numbers is "Love wins" at 16 Kudos and 146 Hits.

6. What fic didn’t perform as well as you thought it would?

I didn't expect a specific amount of reaction on any of them, so I'd say none of them. Every interaction with on of my fics just made me go "oh!🥰"

7. What fic performed way better than you thought it would?

I'd say "Like the Painting of a sorrow" because it was this oneshot I came up with, wrote and posted within 24 hours, a random idea after reading Dorian Gray. That being said, I am very proud and fond of it, so it made me so happy that it was appreciated!

And also "Love wins", I struggled getting the first chapter together and was worried it was too chaotic, and I was so happy it got good feedback.

8. What was your favorite fic you wrote from 2022?

I'm most proud of and currently most emotionally attached to "A Lover in the story". I'm especially proud of the last chapter, mostly because I managed to write it at all and make something I really like of it.

A Lamb for our Love stands right next to it though – although it's still not finished. (Not because I neglected it, but just because the second chapter is so hard to write) and I'm so excited for what it will become <3

9. What was your favorite fic that somebody else wrote in 2022?

Reducing this to one would be a shame, so I'll list a few 😊

and that was the moment i knew by @alfredo-kesmann

Andrés has Hanahaki disease and coughs up red roses. Whose favourite flowers could those be?

It had started with inconspicuous coughing, a few weeks ago. Soon followed the shaky breaths, the trouble breathing normally at random times. Then, came the shaking fingers, half a week later, creating unavoidable unsteady black lines in the painting he had been working on, the jawline of his self portrait now ruined.

A beautiful take on the trope, with all the drama befitting Berlermo, and overall an extremely romantic and enjoyable read.

Chimera 키메라 by @signorin-anarchia

A sort of crossover of Money Heist Korea and La casa de papel. Andrés is in the concentration camp Korean Berlin was in. Martín joins him there.

His mother's arms are a cradle, a safe haven.

A shelter from all that is evil on earth.

He can remember the faded feeling of bones colliding, rubbing, which nevertheless feels as comfortable as nothing in the world.

Nothing in the whole world.

But there's never much more than anything in the world.

And now his mother's arms are pincers, stealing his life, locking his way.

A very interesting concept with beautiful execution, and very poetic prose that aches just right when you read it.

The Swan's Symphony by @nharidy

Martín plans another and executes heist after the gold heist, and a rescue mission for Andrés on the side – who is alive but asuffering <3. All the old members of the gang are there, and also a lot of new additions.

“Is this true?” Estocolmo asked, turning to El Professor. Mirko, however, was looking at Palermo. It doesn't matter whether it's true or not , he realized. Palermo wasn’t there because one night in the future he might get killed in his bed. 

No, he was there for the one and only reason he's ever done anything since Mirko knew him.

El Profesor sighed.

This genuinely feels like a continuation of lcdp. It gives all the vibes of the show, the characters, their interactions and the action, flashbacks and execution of the heist are spot on. Just overall extremely fun to read.

Remember what your old pal said by @roccinan

La casa de papel Toy Story AU. Andrés is a bullfighter doll, and he finds Martín in the collection he belongs to. But what is Martín really up to?

Andrés is beautiful. And he doesn’t need a mirror to tell him what he already knows. Because he can stare at anything that bounces back light for a wonderful view of himself from head to toe: sunglasses, helmet visors, watches, or even the window on a bright spring day.

He has a slim, well-proportioned frame, a statuesque figure that expertly hides a body of incredible might and power within its wires.

This is genuinely just hilarious, and Andrés is perfectly delusional in it. And the Berlermo romance is so sweet – with an added element of darkness, of course.

I'm back, cabrones!

And I brought a new (old) fic

Thanks to Kal, my bestie as always.

And especially to @signorin-anarchia for her amazing beta work♥️♥️♥️

As was his nature, nothing much could hold his attention for long unless it was a masterpiece of the utmost intellectuality. But, for some reason that Martín had never been able to understand (he refused to entertain the notion that it could have been coincidence or divine intervention), in their small home on the coast of Michoacán, it was the Pacific Hurricane Season that grabbed Andrés' attention. He became obsessed with that one tropical wave that, in its path through Nicaragua and Costa Rica, had turned into a tropical depression and had already left more than 20 people dead.

(Or rainy season was making me sad so I wrote this)

2022 Writers' Review

I was tagged by @carladuquette~ Thanks! 🥰 

1. What is your AO3 account?

LavandulaCosmos, so you can all find me on this hellsite too.

2. How many words did you write total in 2022?

Based on Ao3's statistics I wrote 162,144 words. Nice! And that's the published and cleaned-up amount, I don't even want to know how much was left in the drafts.

3. How many fics did you publish in 2022? How many multichapters vs oneshots?

Exactly 2. Both are multi-chaptered, including the monster that is Aureate and the poor, neglected Arms of Morpheus. That one still needs an ending.

4. What was your longest fic? Your shortest fic?

Aureate is easily the longest thing I've ever written. Compared to that one, Arms of Morpheus - at 23k - is the short one.

5. What was your most popular fic? Your least popular fic?

Aureate and Amaranthine both hit landmarks in 2022, passing 2500 and 5500 hits respectively. The least popular based on hits is Arms of Morpheus.

6. What fic didn’t perform as well as you thought it would?

None, both babies got more attention than I imagined they would.

7. What fic performed way better than you thought it would?

Both, the two fics got a lot of positive feedback, which I'm really grateful for~

8. What was your favorite fic you wrote from 2022?

Aureate - It was a very long and immensely complex project to do, especially when it came to the plot and the structure of it, but I also had a lot of fun with it. 🥰 

9. What was your favorite fic that somebody else wrote in 2022?

Ooh, there are hundreds I enjoyed, but it's been a right age since I've betaed anything so I have to nominate The Fatal Drive by @natures-marvel for the sheer amount of chaos we unleashed while it took shape. 💜

10. Tag your friends to do this year-end fic review as well!

The Fatal Drive by @natures-marvel

[roccinan]

"Pssh, you worry too much"

👁️👁️

Thanks for the prompt! Decided to set this one in an AU of the Bank heist where Andres lives. TW: eye trauma

Injury and Illness Denial Prompts

“Psh, you worry too much.”

“I beg your pardon?”

Andrés set down the tweezers, a little burst of anger knotting itself through the worry, until concern gave way to aggrievement. He pressed forward, until the tip of his nose touched Martín’s, the other man still laid flat on the table and grimacing at the light. 

“I’ll be fine,” Martín said, in a tone he’d never- or rarely- taken with Andrés, as if his beloved was an imbecile. The gall of him.

Andrés watched him, unsure if Martín was able to see his glare through the bloodied haze that now made up the whites of his eyes. Andrés had managed to remove the offending glass in spite of the storm welling up with each pluck (but it was still better he do it than Tokyo, who would have no doubt purposely made the injuries worse). He squinted at Martín’s eyes, stomach turning, but found no discernible glass left behind.

“You misread me,” Andrés told him, “I’m not worried. I am livid.”

His hand found Martín’s palm, squeezing limp fingers. “You could have been blinded. That bullet could have found its way to your heart, or worse yet, your brilliant brain.”

“And?” Martín asked, somehow amused. “Those are hypotheticals. Better me than you.”

Before Andrés could retort, Martín added, “And it’s better than shrapnel getting into my dick, no? Or the ass you love so much?”

“Too bad it didn’t get you in the mouth,” Tokyo’s voice hissed from behind.

Without looking back, Andrés snarled out, “Shut up.”

Then again at Martín, he said, “Palermo, is the pain manageable?”

Martín swam a tongue over the inside of his mouth. His chin tilted up. Then his right eye produced some semblance of a wink. “Barely feel a thing at all. I’ll be up in no time, capitan.”

“Disgusting,” Tokyo muttered.

“But I’ll burst a blood vessel if you don’t throw that bitch out of here, Berlin.”

“Like you have any more vessels to burst, asshole?”

Normally, Andrés would be more than happy to indulge Martín’s request. But this time, Tokyo’s existence was barely a concern at all, not when his mind was still replaying the images of Gandia’s grin and the glass shattering in Palermo’s face. The grin however had unmistakably been aimed at Berlin. The son of a bitch changed his target on purpose, likely because he knew this was the one place it would actually hurt to strike.

Andrés motioned for Helsinki to bring the gauze over. Then he slipped a hand under Martín’s back, pushing up by the waist. When Martín’s head was close to his shoulder, almos pressed to his chest, Andrés stated, with no small flourish, “I’ll cut out Gandia’s eyes and bring his head to you on a pike.”

He felt Martín grin, lips grazing against his jaw. “I’d like that.”

[veterveter]

Ok, I'll go for brownie & chocolate lime ;)

Hey hey friend thank you for asking!!!!

Brownie: a band/artist you used to like but don't anymore?

Oof, it's gotta be 3 Doors Down. It was never my favourite band but I was really into them for years, and them playing at Trump's inauguration really soured it for me. Is that petty of me? Possibly. But those values are just so against mine, and so many bands and artists declined to play there, and then one of my favourites agrees to?? Because they agree with Trump, apparently?? Since then I've been vehemently skipping their songs on my playlist... except for Believer. That one is still a banger. I have a Believer hoodie somewhere still. I accidentally wore it to church once.

Chocolate lime: last person you stayed up past midnight talking to?

Well technically I stayed up past midnight talking to my boyfriend @geobirdi about rival magicians (I'm sorry that bringing up my favourite WIP is currently the best way to reach me, I've been ridiculously busy and tired lately) and then went on to talk to @es-imposible about life. This applies to most of my evenings ✨

Made-up fic title ask game:

"Worms waiting for wings"

👀

Hey Enrica! Thank you for asking 🤗

This took me a while and man, what a title 👀 I immediately got religious dark vibes and it was the vibe I couldn't shake anymore. I think the idea I have is super weird, but it just came to life by itself: Andrés and Martín don't know each other. When Andrés finds out he is dying, he starts/founds(?) a cult, and all his followers agree to kill themselves the moment Andrés dies, because he is the chosen one and if they die at the same time as him, they all ascend to heaven together.

Andrés initially just wanted the cult to enjoy his last days, treated like a messenger of god, and to have people that worship him enough to go down with him, but with time, he sort of starts to believe it all himself to cope with the fact that he's dying.

Martín, meanwhile, is either a journalist or a researcher who wants to write a paper on the cult, and he "infiltrates" it to figure out how it works, and obviously he thinks everyone who wants to kill themselves when Andrés dies is stupid, and Andrés is a joke. But then he falls for Andrés and Andrés falls for him too and they lead the cult together, refusing to face the truth of their situation but it's catching up with them – and eventually no one wants to die more than Martín when Andrés dies.

Arms of Morpheus by @lavandulacosmos. Masterpiece!

The Proxy and The chaos in the storm by @dormarunt. The fics I didn't know I needed until she posted it.

Mirror Versions of the Same Game or How Detective Berrote hates Mondays by my dearest darling soulmate @delirious-and-slightly-murderous 🥰 I saw that Berlermo fandom lacked a Secret Admirer AU so I gave this prompt for my Secret Santa 2022 and not only Manu dearest wrote the most perfect version of this AU but also that lying bitch lied to me for a whole fucking month she didn't get the prompt so it deserves a special mention!

Gran Hotel AU by @roccinan. A crackpot time travel fic with retro shenanigans and a last chap I desperately want updated! But its a 10/10 read!
