#tf2 fan fic

[aussie-bookworm]

I think my favourite flavour of Pyro dialogue in fic is stuff like this

[the-squidward-in-question]

Should I get an Ao3 if I’m gonna post longer form fan fiction? I had been planning to post it here cause I thought I could make a post that’s only visible via permalink through my blog navigation, but APPARENTLY NO. Help! I just like old men tf2 but don’t want to traumatize random tumblrs

[trypo-p]

Things that TF2 Fanfictions need to do

Not make Soldier look like a complete villain in EVERY fic. I'm so tired of this.

Actually include Demoman

Give Heavy a personality outside of "I love this Doktor!"

Not completely baby Pyro. Pyro isn't a child. Sure they have childlike whimsy but they aren't an actual child.

Include Sniper into the "Scout needs a Dad" trope.

Make Engineer swear more

Give Sniper more of a personality outside of being a loner. Sure he is a loner but he can also be outgoing!

Oblivious Miss Pauling. Also not making her whole personality "girl boss" she's got personality too!!!

Bottom Heavy. Do I have to elaborate.

Awkward Top Scout. We know how things went with Zhanna.

Make Spy more disgusting. "He's fancy and a gentleman" he publicly pisses on walls too and this is canon.

Please make Spy more awkward. He seems smart but he really isn't the smartest. Have you heard ANY of the voice lines he says after dominating someone? They're goofy as hell and I love them

Medic having a personality outside of being gay. We know he's fruity but he's got a bit more to him than fruit.

Sniper is a nerd about his job. He has an apricot air freshener in his van + he makes the code word between him and Spy "apricot". We need more nerdy Sniper.

I'm building a wall, everyday it's getting higher. This time I won't end up another victim of love! 🎶

Demo without a shadow of a doubt is 100% the most mischaracterized and misunderstood character in the fandom and I get kinda annoyed with people either ignoring it entirely or downplaying it whenever it's brought up by saying "yeah all the mercs get this treatment too" as if Demo isn't consistently the one who gets this treatment the worst. Like for as much flack as the other mercs get from people, Demo almost never gets properly characterized unless it's from someone properly obsessed with him

It's genuinely infuriating to see people consistently pass up his character and treat him as though he's a blank jokey-joke character who only exists to make "haha alcoholism" and "haha black person" jokes like please for the love of god at least attempt to read into his character as much as you do with the other ones. If you can write and draw all this angst and analysis related to Scout and Medic you can at do the favour of understanding Demo a little more, no?

tf2 shitposting again

[thetriggeredhappy]

people comment on running blind like "i know this fic is five years old but-" dude im still fully here. i worked on taking shots TODAY. truly "sometimes i can still hear his voice" like cmon next youre gonna tell me tf2 is an old game

The final chapter of my SniperScout time loop AU is now out on AO3!

Thank you all so much for reading!

Summary:

Working under RED can be repetitive at times - but nothing like this. 

After a curse is fired his way, Scout is forced to live through the same day over and over and over again. 

It should be easy for someone as perfect as Scout to break the curse, right? 

As long as he doesn't have to confront the things he's been feeling towards Sniper it should be a piece of cake!

Chapter summary:

All things end

[megsiepoo]

            "Mein gott, I am fine," Ludwig cried, leaping up from his seat to emphasize his point before immediately falling right back down, his knees buckling in protest. The two men rushed forward in a panic, catching the former doctor and easing him back into his seat, a strained 'danke' passing through gritted teeth. Medic glued his eyes to his lap and gripped onto his thighs, his fingers digging painfully through the material; a professional to his core, he loathed being seen as weak, especially among his peers.             "Look, doc," Engineer began, giving Medic's shoulder a gentle squeeze, "if you say you're going to be ok, we'll believe you. You'd tell us if there was something to worry about. But you do an awful lot to take care of everyone. Why don’t you let us take care of you for a change?"

Hellooo tf2 fandom! I come bearing an offering. There will be more. Whether that's a threat or a promise is up for your interpretation.

This was genuinely very fun to write! And this fic also helped drag me out of a writing funk. I'm looking forward to doing more for the fandom. And don't worry cotl readers, I'll return soon. Consider this a hiatus period while I fight burnout.

Anyway, a big thank you to all my readers, and feedback appreciated as always!

Autistic coded characters that use coloured lenses for sensory reasons 🙏

I fucking love it when it becomes relevant even just in fan content and there’s that moment of weakness where they feel really stupid and are waiting to be belittled for it but rather than get made fun of for it there’s that little moment of understanding from the other person and they feel seen and and jusyJDJSBDJSHXJ- 🔥🔥🔥

I have this odd childhood memory of asking my mom if it was possible to get addicted to cough drops and she kinda explained the differences between a substance dependency and a psychological addiction, and she had no idea I was asking because of an edgy and highly explicit red medic fanfic i had stumbled upon

[im-not-a-sheep]

actually i used to be against fics. Mostly bc I thought they were all ships (which a lot are tbh..). But then I read portal bluesky because I kept seeing so much fansrt of this random fic on pinterest I was like fuck it. Time to see what's so good about it. And yeah,aside from the fact that it's clearly a chell and Wheatley ship fic it still managed to tell an interesting story outside of that, which is what changed my mind about fics lmao

[aprofessionalwithoutstandards]

This thought has been bouncing around in my brain like a dvd player logo for days now and I gotta put it out into the world somewhere. Medic 100% has a worship kink. That is all.

Ohhn 100000% absolutely. Between his canon characterization and my own personal way of characterizing him (which is based on how Medic players tend to behave, as in he loves to complain and constantly talks about how hard his life is and how no one appreciates him) he definitely enjoys being treated with that kind of honor. And not to out myself but dare I say it he deserves it! Absolutely sir you work soooo hard and the only way I can appreciate you is by groveling at your feet (<- guy who is desperate to see the full tity)
