REBLOG if you have amazing, talented WRITER friends.

[willowworkswithwords]

oh my gosh hiii i was reading through your fic works and they're so great, if you're still doing prompts could i suggest 10. “Don’t worry about that right now, just hold on.” - for a hurt anakin and obiwan looking after him bc that's all i crave of these dumb bois. Thank you, hope you are having a good life!! :)

Hiii!!!! Thank you so much, that's so sweet! And thank you for this prompt :) I'm sorry it's a bit on the short side, but I didn't want to have you waiting too much longer! I'd love to know what you think of it!

Also, I hope this finds you having a great day, and if not, that it gets better!

When he was a slave, Anakin had seen many other slaves get hurt on the job. By their masters, by angry customers, but most often while they worked; he had worked among hundreds enslaved to various junk shops, auto shops, and scrap heaps.

So he knew what an infection from a rusty piece of metal looked like and he knew what it did to people when left untreated. But their campaign wasn’t going to fight itself, and the people of the planet were desperate. They only had hope, and Anakin wouldn’t be the one who took that away from them.

He expected the campaign would go on for no more than five more days. They weren’t winning, but they were gaining on the opposition, and between with the 212th joining back with them their third day of fighting after they’d taken three outposts, he knew victory was in the cards.

He was honestly surprised when he felt the dry earth meet his face.

His head was spinning, but he didn’t feel a blaster wound. He started from his toes and worked his way upwards, cataloguing his aches and pains and sorting them out.

He got to his upper right arm and realized his mistake.

His vision was blurry, the fever was sinking into his body, taking away everything but the heat and the pulsing pain. He tried to look around but realized his eyes were closed. The sounds of battle still raged on, so he knew his men were doing fine.

He let himself drift, thinking of Padmé and thanking the Force that, if the worst occurred, and given the odds of being found in time, they would, Obi-Wan would take care of her.

“Anakin, Anakin you must wake up.” He didn’t want to. He was wrapped in a fuzzy, white noise feeling around his whole body and the pain was gone.

“Anakin, I need to see those eyes, do you hear me? I can sense you, padawan, and I know it’s hard, but you must wake up.”

Master, no, please leave him to go in peace.

“Ani, please.”

Shit.

Anakin struggled against his eyelids.

Shit, Obi-Wan only called him that when he was scared. Fading sunlight stung his eyes and Anakin rolled his head, trying to find Obi-Wan. A calloused hand met the side of his face and Obi-Wan sighed through a laugh, his relief flooding their bond.

“There we go, there we go Anakin. Good job, my padawan.”

“Mast’, it’s an infection, I’m n’t gonna m-make it.” He sucked in a ragged breath when Obi-Wan’s hand pressed a rag against his wound.

“Anakin, we have ships incoming right now, we’ll get you on board and to the medbay in no time.”

Obi-Wan’s voice shook, and without realizing he was crying Anakin took his next breath, needing to say this.

“Obi-wa’, you’re gonna be alri-alright. You, you have to t-take care of Padmé for me—”

Anakin still couldn’t make out Obi-Wan’s face, but he felt the tears hit his cheeks, sliding down to mingle with his own gathering around the collar of his torn tunic.

“Don’t worry about that right now, just hold on.”

Obi-Wan’s grip on him grew tighter.

“Just hold on, Anakin, please.”

Dude I just found your request mini-fics on AO3 and holy shit they are incredible! Brilliant work :) Hm, if you're still doing them, how about Hank & Connor (favourite trash dad and android son of all time) + Malfunction OR Confusion. Whichever word appeals more to be written about! Or you can write both if you want, idk. Anyway I'm awkward and I love these trash cop family too much and your writing is freakin awesome, bye!

(Holy shit this is such a kind thing to say?  Thank you so much???  I mostly just hope I’m keeping the characters at least vaguely in character, thank you

Humans made no sense.  Connor had been working among them for some weeks now, and the more he learned, the less he understood.  He was beginning to feel, for lack of a better word, a little exasperated.

He had been programmed specifically to integrate seamlessly among humans,  to understand the whole of a situation with a mere scan of the surroundings, but he was finding the human psyche much harder to figure out than the thoughts and feelings of the deviants he’d run into.  At least the deviants reactions had a sense of logic behind them.

For example, Hank regularly scolded him for running data scans on blood on a crime scene based merely around the fact that it touched against what Hank associated with a tongue.  It wasn’t a tongue, not really, it was a receptacle for data in which he was able to analyze information in real time which simply happened to resemble a human tongue.  And yet, Hank allowed Sumo to climb on his lap and lick his face with his slobbery, dog tongue, and snapped at Connor when he attempted to point out the things Sumo did with that tongue on a regular basis.  

He’d only been concerned for the Lieutenant’s hygiene. 

He had to learn it, Connor determined, if he was ever going to be fully accepted among human society.  He had to master the algorithms, the patterns, to what made humans the way that they were.  It would have been easier if they didn’t spend their entire day contradicting themselves.  Or maybe Hank was just an especially difficult case to study. 

He began compiling a list:

Spending money on coffee was fine, if you drank if black, but spending money on coffee that was sweet was a waste of American Dollars.

It was equally irritable whether the traffic around you moved at a slower pace than you, or a faster one.

“Good” songs sounded better louder, but “bad” songs were worse the louder they were.

It was unpleasant to have a list of work to do, but worse to have nothing to do.

The more unhealthy food was, the better it tasted.

It was a crime against basic rights to have to purchase something necessary, like gasoline, but incredibly easy to spend three times the amount on something you wanted, but didn’t need

“Five more minutes” was somehow an adequate amount of sleep to make up for a night’s poor slumber.

The longer the list grew, the less sense any of it made.  There was nothing that added up, nothing that held any sort of logic at all to it, and yet Hank held them as basic truths with no thought of questioning them.  Where was the reasoning?  Where was the purpose?  Where was-

“Would you stop glaring at me?”  Hank interrupted his thoughts, giving Connor an affronted look from over his desk.  “You’d think I pissed in your fruit loops, what exactly is your problem today?”

Connor hadn’t realized he’d been staring so intently at him.  “Sorry, Lieutenant.”  He blinked, forcing his gaze away to instead stare down at his desk.  “I was simply trying to figure something out, that’s all.”

“Huh,” It was obvious the man was battling his own curiosity, moving things around on his desk until he couldn’t resist any longer.  “Okay, what.  Figure out what.”

Connor weighed out his options, a few different answers coming to mind before he spoke.  “Figure out what is wrong with the human species.”

“Oh shit,” The laughter that came from Hank took Connor by surprise, watching Hank flop back in his seat with a clear expression of amusement.  “That all?  We’ve been trying to figure that out ourselves for over two thousand years, good fucking luck.”

“Can I ask you a personal question, Hank?”

“Shoot, kid, I’m all ears.”  

Connor once again thought carefully before speaking.  “Do I seem human?”

The seriousness in his tone seemed to bring Hank back into the moment, for once.  The Lieutenant gave him a look over.  “Fuck no,” he replied.  “You lick up blood on crime scenes, you send reports via the Connor-net in your head, you don’t eat, you don’t sleep, and have shit taste in music.”  Connor’s mouth opened to reply, but Hank continued before he could.  “But Connor, can I ask you a personal question?”

Connor stopped short, giving another few rapid blinks before answering.  “Yes, Lieutenant?”

“Does it really fucking matter?” 

Connor’s light blinked a rapid yellow as he processed the question, his brow furrowed before he sat back.  Did it... matter...

“Okay kid, don’t explode trying to work it out, it’s rhetorical.  Look.”  He pointed around the room.  “Each one of the people in here is different, aside from the fact that they’re all assholes.  They already exist, though, you don’t have to change who you are to try to be like they are.  Or like I am.  You don’t have to be a human, and you don’t have to be ‘the android sent by CyberLife’ either.  Just be what you are alright? Now quit staring at me and get back to work.”

It was still rare that Connor found a genuine reason to smile but he found himself giving one in that moment.  “Got it.”

Favorite Stiles Scenes: Season 6, Episode 10: The Sheriff and Lydia Save Stiles from Fake Claudia Part 3

[Part 1] [Part 2]

As requested by: STRUGGLINGBUTSTILLFIGHTING

Here’s the final part of the scene where Stiles is confronted with Fake Claudia and where the Sheriff arrives just in time to save his son with Lydia’s help. I absolutely love the father/son scenes and this episode, while it didn’t have many, had probably the two most perfect scenes that displayed the love and protectiveness between them. My only wish is that we had seen an after scene when everything was done of Stiles coming home for the first time in months and of him questioning his dad about what Lydia said about his ‘mom’ coming back. (Ooooh, fic idea!)

Hey can you please recommend some Anakin whump stories? I found there ain’t so many this content🥹🥹🥹🥹but I read one from you and it’s rly GOOOD🥹

Ahhhh Anon!! You are so sweet! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed my fic!! In no particular order, here are some Anakin whump recs!

The Madness and the Apathy by @strugglingbutstillfighting - After accidentally injuring himself, Anakin isn't impressed about having to do this 'rest.' Katie's Note: This author has A TON of great Anakin whump stories, you should check out all their stuff!

Spiked by @ahsokryze - During a Senatorial Gala, Anakin causes quite the scene when he collapses after drinking something that wasn’t intended for him. Katie's Note: I adore this fic. It's one of my favs. This author also has a ton of amazing disaster trio whump and goodness in her repertoire, so please go check her out!

Outside Comfort by @delless03 - After the battle on Maridun, Anakin's injuries finally catch up with him. Katie's Note: Yet another author with a bunch of great stuff, but this recent fic has made me very very happy.

Shine by sideral - A nightmare left Anakin feeling panicked and sick. Fortunately, he is not alone when he wakes up. Katie's Note: I don't know if this person has a tumblr, but this is one of my fav fics. I adore little sickfics.

Welcome Home by @sonderwalker - A misunderstanding between Obi-Wan and Anakin boils over into a fight where feelings are left unsaid... for a little while that is. Katie's Note: AKA one of my favorite fics of all time. It's a comfort fic for me.

sun child by @rose-blooms-red - sometimes being so tied to the Force causes problems, Obi-Wan helps his Padawan as best he can. Katie's Note: Another one of my favs. I am absolutely fascinated by fics that explore the bounds of Anakin's Force powers and the Force in general. This one's super cool.

A Magnet for Trouble by @hellowkatey - Anakin gets too close to a Sith artifact, and Obi-Wan must figure out how to get his padawan back. Katie's Note: The Halloween vibes in this are amazing. It's such a unique little fic and I love it.

Four Walls and Two Jedi by hellowkatey again - Obi-Wan and Anakin get exposed to a deadly virus and must spend two weeks in quarantine battling sickness, ghosts from the past, and worries for the future. Katie's Note: This one has both Obi-Wan and Anakin whump so honestly, I am the target audience for this fic

Why Do You Feel So Down by Your_Old_Shipmate - The early days of Obi-Wan and Anakin, featuring a sick Anakin! Katie's Note: once again, I don't know their tumblr, but this is one of my favs.

Behind the Clouds, the Sun is Shining by Your_Old_Shipmate again - Obi-Wan is confronted by Anakin's traumatic past after an accident happens in their apartment. Katie's Note: This one hurts so good.

Because I'm running out of time here, some other amazing author's to go check out for Anakin (and general disaster trio) whump, hurt/comfort, angst and all that good stuff are:

@giggles-and-freckles

@alright-anakin

@adaliak

@katierosefun

@kckenobi

@ilonga

@pandora15

@indigostars

They have a ton of great stuff!

Ahem, I uh... I'm going to throw some absolutely shameless self-promo in here as well because I have a few Anakin whump fics I've written too!

A Necessary Favor - When Anakin’s small cold turns into something much worse, a simple mission to Alderaan becomes anything but. Obi-Wan just hopes he can rely on the newly inaugurated Senator of Alderaan for help.

Breaking Point - Anakin tries to prove himself. It ends in Force exhaustion and a worried Obi-Wan.

Under My Skin - Obi-Wan and Anakin crash land on a planet strong with the Force. It doesn’t agree with Anakin.

Below The Surface - Anakin gets swept out by the tide and Obi-Wan panics.

There are SO MANY amazing Anakin whump fics and writers out there that I am certainly missing, but this is a start! Thank you so much for asking, it's been a long while since I've done a rec list! This was fun :))

WIP Title Tag

Rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have wips.

thanks for the tag @skywalker-tano-kenobi !!

okayyy, so, i actually have a ridiculous amount of WIPs (like 100. and no, i’m actually not exaggerating—if anything i’m under-exaggerating…i technically have over 300 files in my folder, and about 100 of them are actually planned out/in progress so… as i said, Ridiculous) so i’m only going to be choosing my favourite ones/ones that i’m hoping to get finished soon

anyway, here we go:

obi-wan on tatooine

post-lawless

snips and skyguy snowy mountain (prompt)

the jellyfish incident

"lothal" / "ahsoka can’t sleep" (-these kinda go together so i’ll just talk abt them both at the same time)

dancing queen

sleepover

Ice Cream, Cartwheeling Banthas & Chaos, Oh My!

no pressure tags @delless03 @hannah-schooler @stolen-pen-name23 @strugglingbutstillfighting @indigostars @sonderwalker

also, looking through my WIP folder, there’s actually quite a few funny ideas and things i’ve planned out that i know i probably won’t actually ever get round to writing, so, i was thinking it would be fun to make a post showing all these funny concepts/ideas—just because they’re really funny and i want to share them, even if they’re only in bullet-point form. So, let me know if you’d want to see that :)

Five Favorite Fics

Thanks for the tag, Katie! @stolen-pen-name23

Presence of the Under - A prompt fill for day 1 of febuwhump (head injury)

This is the fic I'm proud of right now hahaha! The amount of research I did was a lot -- I still have the websites saved in my bookmark hehe. It was definitely a challenge to write but I enjoyed every second of it.

Drained Energy - Also a prompt fill for febuwhump (too weak to move)

Honestly, I didn't plan to write this. I was stuck but I wanted to write something before febuwhump ended so I did. It ended up with me doing another round of research lol but I had a great time! (Researching stuff is definitely a hobby of mine😅)

Tendencies - yeah, this is for febuwhump too haha ("Does that hurt?")

This was a fic I played around with -- it's a modern au so...

Crash, Something, and Found Family - A fic I wrote back in December; disaster trio usual... disaster and fluff.

Easy - the Skywalkers baked some cookies

This is my sister's favorite lol but I loved working on it too.

No pressure tags: @ahsokryze @strugglingbutstillfighting and anyone else who wants to hop along.

At least, not to Merlin.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/27835099 -  Wherein Merlin goes from being cold and confused to warm and confused, Arthur accidentally learns gift giving is a love language, and socks are more trustworthy than neckerchiefs.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/29092131 -  Merlin bites off more than he can chew while he's feeling a bit under the weather. Arthur shows up just in time and makes sure Merlin gets what he needs to feel better, even if that means carrying him bridal-style into his bedroom. And no, no one can ever know about that.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/30939938 - Merlin tells Gaius what happened while he was asleep.Tiny ficlet sketching out the aftermath of 'The Fires of Idirsholas'.
