“I do, you know. Care about you.” — beach read ( accepting ) / @scldieriwillbe

DEMONS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE INCAPABLE OF CARING. The soul, empathy, everything that creates and allows human emotions — it was carved out of him during his remaking, leaving behind only cunning and ambition and cruelty.

And, perhaps, that was the story for a long, long time — until, at least, some part of that tiny raw piece of soul was stirred back to life again. Even still, it's like flexing a muscle that hasn't been used in a very, very long time — it hurts, and yet he wants it. It's painful and awkward and feels like he's not doing it right, and yet ——

They don't talk about it, not really. It's not so much out of avoidance as it's just — not them, and it works regardless. It's why that admission comes as bit of a surprise — and it's just as stiff, just as awkward as if he would have said it himself. And yet, somehow, that makes it even more endearing. Somehow this — this archangel manages to have him twisted and turned around, and he's addicted to it more than he'd ever admit.

" Yes, well, " and his voice is quiet, gruff, and he traces an absent line up the archangel's spine — between the splay of wings, thumb rolling a firm circle against knotted muscle just underneath, and that's — something, with him, when they're like this. The touching, the casual affection, the desire that bleeds into something far more warm after the fact.

" That's your first mistake, isn't it. " It's with a crooked smile, though, something distantly reflective in it. " Hmph. " Palm flattens out, and he blows out an exhale. " I do too. Care, " and it's said like someone else might be admitting some dire secret, " about, " and a thoughtful sound in his throat, " you. "

And he gives a little grin, rueful and fond both, and he adds — finding another knot of muscle and working a thumb against it, " Don't you dare tell anyone. You'd ruin my reputation. "

WIP tag

I was tagged by @paintbrushyy to talk about my WIPs, and because I am a responsible adult and not prone to escapism, I am not doing this now to avoid the disaster that my life is right now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If any of these interests you - let me know and I’ll jump on it :’) I’m very easily influenced by enthusiasm these days. (I mean it)

WIPs that are partially posted:

IwaOi Week 2017. I know I’m late to finish days 6 and 7 but. It is happening. I have ideas. I will finish this goddamn project. Day 6 is a Fairy Tale inspired thing (not literally though) and probably has boys in dresses and skirts because FIGHT ME and Day 7 is for the prompt Goodbyes, it has parental divorce and thunderstorms and soft confessions.

Drag me ‘Round (Kicking and Screaming): has 3/5 chapters up – Oikawa shrinks; based on art by @yaboykeiji. This might get a sequel, I have ideas.

Until It Breaks: 1/3 (or 4) chapters up -  it’s a MatsuHana and IwaOi fic, College AU, past unrequited MatsuIwa – the boys have Issues and need to Talk about them. Involves drunk upset Makki and soft background IwaOi.

Look To The Sky: 3/4 chapters up, based on Amanda Marshall’s Cross My Heart – one possible story of iwaoi’s lives, from childhood to college. Includes so much fluff you will choke (and a marriage proposal) but also angst and long-distance and… yeah.

The Play: 1/4 chapters up – The volleyball club of Aoba Johsai has the privilege (Oikawa) or obligation (everyone else) to perform a play at the cultural festival. A romantic play, of course, because there’s nothing as engaging as romance! Includes boys in dresses, sneaky or not-so-sneaky plans, and a very exasperated Iwaizumi.  

Ignite The Sky: 2/possibly 50 chapters up – gigantic iwaoi Dragon AU with @josai that I sincerely hope you are just as excited for as I am.

 Other ideas:

IwaOi Sisters AU: I have been sitting on this idea for almost a year and I cannot wait to write it out. Iwa with a gigantic family – six sisters (!) and the story of Oikawa re-meeting his family after he goes from best friend to boyfriend. A story about family and acceptance and the bonds between all of these characters. I have a lot of feelings about my OCs for this fic and if I’m lucky I made @shouyouohno excited enough to even give one of them a spinoff :0

A birthday fic (iwaoi) for my dear friend @joanofarcticmonkeys that she sort-of requested and that got WAY out of hand  (and is super late oh my god I’m so sorry) – includes biracial Iwa-chan and pining Oikawa and a misunderstanding that leads to pain. And ultimately fluff. xD

A Room With New Colors: Delinquent Iwa and Good Kid Oikawa, this is pretty dark in parts, there’s abuse and homophobia and haphephobia and a lot of… healing. Probably slow burn, and it might take me a while to write.

The Roof: iwaoi. They’ve moved to Tokyo and things should be going great, right? Right? So why is there this distance between them that Tooru finds so suffocating? He starts escaping their shared bed and the warmth of Iwaizumi’s arms to spend his nights on the roof of their 8-story apartment building, staring at the stars and looking for answers. Could possibly be triggering – but there’s a happy end, because COME ON.

Another depression fic with long-distance iwaoi because I have too many feelings and nowhere to put them.

A continuation for Born For Glory (I’m struggling with the style) that might turn into something heavily inspired by @amalasdraws’ roadtrip AU

So. Much. HP AU. You guys don’t even know. One version has legilimens!Iwa and that’s all I have to say about that.

“Do you like me” – soft iwaoi fluff with slightly insecure Oikawa & lots of reassurance.

An iwaoi medieval AU with @josai – I dragged her into this but I am hyped; instead of the usual king/guard romance thing, here we have IwaOi both as royal guards for the king – this’ll be nsfw and involve, uh, kind of shady consent and Iwa and Oikawa with other parties because RULES and medieval society and apparently I love pain (with happy endings)

Iwaoi Spirit AU: There’s a monster under little Oikawa’s bed – but maybe he’s just lost. Kind of slow burn (?) depending on how detailed I wanna write this.

Hit it until it breaks: The story behind Oikawa’s favorite quote (inspired by a gifset and the thought: what if Oikawa likes that quote so much because it reminds him of Iwaizumi…?)

Siren!Oikawa: What the title implies – but we’re talking dangerous, poisonous siren Oikawa and human Iwa, who finds him while he’s injured, and therefore gets spared – but he can’t leave, either, he knows too much now. And is it a coincidence that Oikawa shares his name with a boy Hajime used to know…?

Iwaoi Soulmates AU: where what your soulmate thinks of you appears as writing on your skin, and Tooru has always had words all over himself and all of them are so positive that he’s sure his soulmate can’t be anyone he knows, must be some kid dreaming up the perfect partner, because he is none of the things his skin is telling him. (and even though he dreams of his soulmate, he also can’t deny his feelings for Iwa-chan, who couldn’t possibly be right for him even though he desperately wants him to be… because even when Oikawa amps up his annoying-ness, never once has there been the word “annoying” on his skin.)

Flowers: iwaoi, Iwa plays the “he loves me, he loves me not” game throughout different stages of their relationship, until he realizes that he makes his own destiny.

Handcuffs: iwaoi – a prompt given to me by @superiortechnology; iwa and oikawa are arguing and there seems to be more going on than meets the eye – so obviously Matsukawa and Hanamaki takes matters into their own hands and make sure that their friends solve their dispute by any means necessary.

Greek Gods AU 1: More Aphrodite/Hephaestus IwaOi (see Iwaoi Week 2017)

Greek Gods AU 2: Hades/Persephone IwaOi

Airport Reunion AU 1: happy sappy “I missed you so much” schmoop for iwaoi with a confession :D

Airport Reunion AU 2: this one hurts; Oikawa is due to come home from a game overseas but his plane crashes. (He’s not dead. Good lord.)

“Three things you love most” – a short series of iwaoi being asked that question at different stages in their lives. FLUFF

“What would you do if I died today?” - another collab with @josai if that works out; Oikawa asks a stupid question and Iwa can’t seem to let it go. Soft and pensive and nsfw :’)

A very soft and sappy engagement/wedding thing for iwaoi

An incredibly painful iwaoi fic that has a breakup, minor character death, and a whole host of misunderstandings. To know your characters, you have to break them, or something. This one is ROUGH.

A couple ideas for nonbinary Oikawa and/or Trans Oikawa that I am afraid to approach because I don’t want to be indelicate or offensive.

Possibly more for the Sports Club IwaOi AU (see Iwaoi Week 2017)

Possibly an actors AU with iwa and oikawa as musical singers in a production of Jesus Christ Superstar

An actual Phantom of the Opera AU with Phantom!Oikawa and Christine!Iwa – old, but I wanna write some of it out.

A whole host of fluffy iwaoi drabbles from prompts that I’ve found or that people have sent me in my ask :D There’s like 30 unfilled ones there and I intend to write pretty much all of them, and also the ones that are for ships I don’t usually write (kagehina, bokuro, daisuga)

I have more IwaOiBokuAka and more IwaOiBoKuro ideas are in the works too – smaller fic ideas for the former and, if I can manage to write it, a large fic for the latter.

Other fandoms (because yeah, I wanted to diversify. Hah.)

Illuminate is marked as completed but I have more ideas for this. It’s for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, an AU where certain characters live.

I also have a rather big HP thing planned with my dear old friend @annoyed-basically that we have a lot of feelings about and that could potentially be the biggest project ever wtf

Oh, and then there’s also HP crackfic for my little sister (her ideas, written as a Very Serious Fic though okay) that I really kinda wanna write but idk if it’ll ever be fit for posting :’D It’s literally just... humor ^^

Ty for the tag! If you’re reading this and you’re a writer, you’re tagged!!
