#tacky is as tacky does

[trexalicious]

Trying to associate Princess Diana with Hollywood vulgarity! She also needs to lay off the fillers. She's ruining her looks and morphing into her 68 year old 'momager', Chris Jenner, by the second...

whats rosquez baby look like plsssss

she is SMALL for her age and has hmmm i think she has marc's eyes and annoying smile and tiny ears but vale's insane head of hair (with a weird parting pattern that she hates) and nose/chin and long ass neck. she doesnt listen to rules for shit and is an awesome criminal that marc (control freak) chafes at sometimes while vale (emotional latchkey kid comma thinks rule breaking is funny) always encourages. tags after him into the garage OFTEN and gets to hold wrenches while he fucks around with marc's motocross bike... she did NOT inherit the marquez freak stare she leans more smarmy charisma monster valentino style and yes she has a fuck ass bob for a while as a teen. she is the largest adrenaline junky in the world FULLY got marc's lack of forethought in terms of danger and her parents are like well sweetie you do not have to do bikes (hoping to not put pressure/do a doohan where the baby is in much safer motorsports after their life of motorcycle medical trauma) and shes like. i wanna do bikes.

day 21 of @hprecfest — a fic rated M | previous recs

author rec! more importantly: tacky rec! evocative, poignant & mature (heh), @tackytigerfic's works are charmed slices of aching life. tacky has a gift for making a meal out of the mundane: their style is imbued with the hush of a glade, something quiet that burrows under your skin and expands there. writing about magic lends itself to the excitement of outlandish predicaments— fuck or die marriage bonds, werewolves, time travel— but i love how tacky takes these improbabilities as opportunities to explore the vulnerable and common humanity that fuels love, friendship, desire, grief. i'd take a chance on tacky's spin on every ship, every trope & every circumstance, purely because i'm convinced they'd take as good care of me as a reader as they do their brilliant, complicated, messy characters.

i chose tacky's M-rated works because i think they best demonstrate how narrative pleasure can, and often does, lie outside the graphic. for an action-oriented, fast-paced reader like me, fics that hold my attention through careful tension & hard-earned payoff are especially enthralling. everything tacky writes, regardless of rating, is glorious & an instant recommendation, but when i think of especially fascinating work with a rating that doesn't usually hold space in my preferences, it's these:

between the power lines (M, 3.2k)

For Harry Potter, all roads eventually lead to Draco Malfoy.

an elaboration & attestation to my personal maxim: to fall in or out of love with someone, take a trip with them. glory be that these two do, glory be that it's the former. this fic stretches and softens with every word, like resin in the sun.

the long fall (M, 3.6k)

It's supposed to be a simple house renovation, and maybe it's just the paint fumes, but Harry is feeling dizzy around Draco Malfoy. And what's the real meaning of family, anyway?

vignettes from a life & love that glow hotter with every change. every word exchanged carries the weight of so much history, care & consideration. the dynamic is sweet & achy, a take on new parenthood that leans entirely into the uncertainty & joy of changing realities.

last offices (M, 6.7k) (mcd)

It didn't seem fair that Malfoy was dead, and Harry was supposed to just keep on living without him.

i reread everything before reccing, but i couldn't bring myself to reread this one because of the sharp, acute devastation of it. pain, regret, grief, dialled up to the extreme and done shatteringly well. the non-linearity of this fic is especially cruel; the heartbreak is never allowed to settle. 100% recommended!

our little life (M, 7.2k)

Sometimes Harry dreams. Only they're not really dreams at all, and Malfoy is always in them. It's time travel, but not as we know it, and Harry just needs a good night's sleep.

entire lives woven into snippets of togetherness, the call of something distant yet inevitable. harry dreams of universes with draco, which is to say, harry dreams of universes where he's loved. also includes the absolutely stellar line: Harry wondered if there was any possible universe in which Malfoy wasn’t an absolute dick about his dad.

take the moon (M, 15k)

Harry Potter has always wanted a family of his own, and when a deadly blood curse forces him into a marriage bond with his best friend Draco Malfoy, it looks like he might just have found one. This isn't the story of the marriage. This is the story of two hurt and damaged men who learned how hard they could work for the sake of love.

two men who don't quite know how to allow what they want fully into their lives, a slow crunch of yearning, the even heat of a dynamic that holds itself away from the brink, brilliantly satisfying when they give into the fall.

in conclusion: a stellar author with a flair for the understated whose works call to be savoured. as always, if you love them (it's tacky, who doesn't?), let me know!

i respect Haters and think they provide a valuable service to the community by actually having discerning taste. i however exist on the diametrically opposite end where i think Anything is for Someone and try to find something interesting in every piece of art that exists and also i believe everything has the potential to be art in the correct context.

........i don't know if i can recommend this

[kuruk]

obviously retarded is a cruel word and it's basically only ever said with such intentions and I get why people who value kindness don't want people saying that when it's associated with mostly groups of incredibly edgy and hateful people. but to be fair when you've had that word thrown at you in a genuinely ableist way rather than just a middle school boy generic insult way and you snap one day and start saying it back to those people hatefully it is kind of satisfying like resentfully so and all. so I donr really care that much I think just use it sparingly and honestly sorry.. but thatsjust my opinions .

I will forever be indebted to anyone who draws fanarts of them in these outfits

Leno would be the shitty RA at your community college that barely submits any of the maintenance request forms anybody's sent in but bends the rules for Gabe and Will

Light gone off in your bathroom? he'll get back to you on that

Your kitchen sink wont drain? He'll file your maintenance request when he's back from lecture.

Screw fell out of your toilet seat and its loose? Didn't he just say he was gonna submit those requests

Gabo and Smitty having the opposite sex in their dorm? He doesn't see the problem

Gabe failed his room inspection. Nahhh... must've been the wind

Everyone wonders why the actual hell he decided to become an RA if he wasn't gonna do jack shit. He says it's because he likes helping his fellow students, but he knows damn well he just wanted the free room and scholarship that came with the position.

(preferably they all attend a southern community college in this idea.)

Made my first ever scrap book page :D

Turned the page a little bit so you could see the gold shines! (:3 っ)∋

I'm really happy with how this turned out, i saw this seal sticker pack at the craft store and had to do something with it!

i was wondering how it was possible for dev patel to play an action hero more soulful and endearing and badass and effortlessly cool than most and then it hit me: there's no sassy one-liner after the action sequences

[jackmkelly]

i hope newsies uk knows this move will never not piss me off they were not slick & this was in fact weird as hell! fix it before u come back!!

(clarice is not here bc im using the program after cast change btw. the girls were already on tv. it was not a “surprise” anymore. they were just ….)

[sodapopcurtis-dx-asks]

I need to know, does soda dye his hair or is it actually that blonde

Soda reads the paper over twice, looks around in utter confusion, and shakes his head before writing on the back.

Who's saying my hair's fake?! D:

It ain't fake! This is real blonde! I get it from my mama, thank you very much!

Just because Ponyboy got his hair bleached don't mean I got mine! I'm all natural, baby!

New OCs

(briefly, humans and supernatural beings have to team up for building better relations with each other and all the supernaturals can shapeshift and take on human appearances but also have their 'original form'.)

OK so I was GOING to draw fanart today - I had a fun idea and everything! But health anxiety (and anti-anxiety meds) wore me out so I kinda .... slogged through OCs as a treat to me. I am going to go to the doctor tomorrow so HOPEFULLY it's all okay.

Is this a safe space to be hater? Can I be a hater this fine Tuesday afternoon? Will you, my brethren, my nearest and dearest, join me in my hating?
