I'm curious about the Freudian one 👀
for this one i actually posted a chapter on ao3 for about three seconds before i decided to take it down lmaoo. now that i'm reading through it again i feel like it actually has potential so maybe i'll pick it up again in the future. but anyway this was the summary:
Crowley doesn't make it a point to make friends. However, he has a surprisingly symbiotic relationship with this one duck. A long one, too. Granting a being eternal life may or may not be illegal, but Crowley doesn't see the harm in it. Hell hasn't said anything, and as far as he knows, the duck community hasn't either. Esther has her personal issues. So does he, even though they're mostly about a certain man-shaped angel thing. They meet up once in a while to talk about it.
anddd a snippet:
At around 2am, he sobers up and decides to go to the park. Esther is usually asleep at this time, but when he gets there, she's sitting at their usual spot. Crowley goes to sit beside her. He's not shaking but he feels like it, and he can only vaguely sense the grass he's sitting on, the clothes against his skin, Esther's presence to his left. It's like a quiet discorporation. Esther tells him that one of her children has finally passed. Crowley tells her that Aziraphale's gone. Esther tells him that her son was old and they were both past their prime anyway, so it was inevitable. It was time for him to go. Crowley tells her that Aziraphale wasn't supposed to leave him so soon. Crowley apologises for being so distraught when Aziraphale is merely gone and not dead. Esther says grief is not comparable. Crowley feels that surge of anger again, although maybe it's despair this time, or maybe it's nothing. His finger twitches like his hand is about to start trembling, the kind of trembling that starts up and can't be stopped the moment he stops thinking about it, and he's just so over it all. A feeling travels down his arm and, scowling into the grass, he shoots his hand out and sets fire to a bunch of cattails in the pond. Esther gasps. "Crowley. What are you doing? Put that fire out this instant." "There's water right underneath it," he grumbles. "Nothing's going to happen." Esther stomps right up to him and kicks his shin with a webbed foot. "You will put that fire out now, young man," she snaps. "How would you feel if someone set fire to your home?"

2024 fic roundup!!!
got tagged (ish) by my beloveds @eybefioro and @captainblou and i'm just gonna do it here because i think i've already written more for poolverine than the ineffable husbands LMAOO
What fandoms do you write in?
deadpool & wolverine, previously good omens
How many words have you published in 2024?
78,557 words so far. 39,124 for good omens and 39,433 for deadpool & wolverine holy shit dude
What is your greatest achievement this year?
honestly just writing more. it's not something i ever did consistently before the end of last year and idk how i went my whole life without it tbh. i fucking love writing
What are your favourite top three fics you wrote this year?
transitional heart taxidermy—at risk of sounding like a broken record this fic means so much to me and it's also my first completed multi-chaptered fic so it was a great achievement. i still can't believe that it became what it did i have no idea how that happened. i have been wanting to write something like this (this relationship dynamic, at least) for a very long time and the thing about good omens is that it really presents you endless opportunities to do whatever you want. and so i did. and it was one of the best things i've ever done
to rome: a play—sonny, eybe, and blou, i will ALWAYS be so grateful to the three of you for always encouraging me in everything i did because without you all this fic would never have been made because i simply would never have wanted to write or thought of writing it otherwise. it's the most experimental thing i've ever done and honestly the most fun i've had writing a fic. from drawing the cover of it playbill-style to formatting the entire thing like a play to writing something happy for once 😭 it definitely did test my writing too because i don't write much fluff or dialogue and hey it worked out. i'm proud of it
sunday morning synesthetics—i just love this fic so much. idk i love writing about how things are like other things. how everything is connected and how everything reminds you of everything else, and how people can connect with each other without words. i love that i could have an opportunity to describe my favourite character in any way i wanted and through the eyes of someone else. i love writing from wade's perspective but more than that i love writing about how other people see him
What have you learned?
to write for myself fr. and adjacently to do everything in fandom for myself. who the fuck cares about notes or engagement or whatever who caresssss who cares. that's not the point of anything
What fic did you want to do but never made it off the ground?
oh all my good omens ideas :( the hanahaki fic, the house of leaves fic, the spooky bang fic that i abandoned KJHEFKJAHA well. maybe one day
Did you beta any fics?
i did!! do!! just for friends who have asked
What ideas are percolating for next year?
sooo many things... i have a gigantic poolverine longfic brewing and maybe i'll be able to pull it off. along with a thousand other ideas and more fandom events lmaoo
Who do you want to thank?
@crowleys-bentley-and-plants @eybefioro @captainblou you three will always always be some of the dearest friends i've made on here. i love u all so much and i'm so glad i baited two of you into talking to me by posting about how i wanted people to be my idea trampolines (and eybe who just dmed me to ask me about marvel comics) lmaoo. we all truly went together like 4 peas in a really weirdly big pod and i always have fun with u all. and also @seven-stars-in-his-palm for being so so generous with ur support and friendship i love u and i love ur mind. you all are what i miss most about the good omens fandom <3 i've also made so many other friends in both of these fandoms so just. thank u to all my mutuals ever
