#thank u for this erika

[osaka-lilac]

allie i've been thinking about these tags for the past few hours and i can't help but think the reason the hug was a little stilted...is because they last time they REALLY hugged...esteban was much shorter and they're not used to the change...brb crying again...

oh my god….. he doesn’t know what it’s like to hug estie at that height at all…. holy fuck…..

[omppupiiras]

throwback to when watching erika perform at linnan jatkot last december single-handedly made me a fan 🙂‍↕️👏 i mean can ya blame me:

[hcourageous]

ame is just so little, she knew the whole time her parents were never coming back. she loved suvi and eursulan unconditionally, she whirled around and she remembered what was important and fought always to be kind, and she knew. she chose to love others though she had been abandoned. she loved and she treasured and she tried to make everyone know it was okay. it’s awful to know that suvi and eursulan don’t know. they don’t know that ame cared for them all summer knowing deep down she was never going to leave. she had no where else to go.

SEL SEL I AM EYEING THAT EXES TO LOVERS BAKUGOU WIP SOOOO HARD RN 👀👀👀👀✨️

based off this post i made on my wips!

hELP the way you all went 😳👀 at the bkg wip 😭 (tbh i get it... he's so cute... i miss him all the time...) @willowser @kedsandtubesocks @acerathia

i consider this fic my love letter to bakugo 🥺

i say that because, i think this fic will bear a lot of how i view bakugo under the themes of regret and reconciliation (something i really want to explore with him!) & i think the exes to lovers trope lends well to that!!

it's set in canon, so pro-hero!au (because idt i'm very creative with au's 🤧) & takes place around his mid-20's! you start dating fresh off ua after working together during an internship. there's definitely a connection, and bakugo definitely has a crush, but of course he's not going to say anything—even when everything about your dynamic is shifting into something more than just friends.

you admit to the feelings first, but don't put a label on it, convincing him that nothing really has to change anyway from how you've already been acting. bakugo can't take the ambiguity though, and probably says something like 'so we datin' or sum shit?'.

then he breaks up with you 2 years later. it's a lot of things piled up til the trigger point and what sucks is that it's all him. there's nothing really wrong with the relationship—in fact, it's good. but there are a lot of things he still regrets, and even more things he hasn't fully forgiven himself for. he projects that a lot onto the relationship and where it's going, and he just thinks, he won't be good for it, or you.

you respect it, and the saddest part is you still work closely together so you see each other a lot and the dynamic is still so good. as in, he passes you by the hall and his shoulders relax, the creases between his brows smoothening by memory—your habit of flattening them down with your fingertips. and it goes on like this for a few years as he attempts to work through things on his own (in a way, he's kinda forced himself to confront everything) until it's an achingly slow realisation that there's still something missing (you).

sidestory! i was actually just contemplating on scrapping this entire thing, bc i didn't feel super confident with my grasp on him and the direction i wanted to take w his characterisation (especially since i think he'll be mellower, maybe a bit sadder and frustrated instead of angrier?). but!! i think, there's a lot to unpack with him, and i feel like i tend to gravitate towards the softer parts of a character when i write them anyway 🥺🤧 i am hoping!! crossing my fingers!! that i bring justice to writing him this way 🥺

this idea came from a set of songs i put in a playlist bc they felt very ~ex-bkg (whatever that meant at the time 😭) but this is probably what's influencing the tone too sdjhgbadj

and a very small snippet!

[stellamancer]

Gojo + soulmate au LETS GOOOOO!!!?!??!!✨

Pwetty pwease??? 🥺

so. what happened here is erika was so so so excited about the soulmate au that she forgot to tell me her second trope and ran to my DMs to tell me what it was and got "attacked" by images of gojo that i'd left for her like how u leave food out for a stray cat.

anyway.

gojo x reader -> soulmate au + green eyed epiphany

i'm prefacing this with saying this is hard. i think because like. the very nature of a soulmate au (read: this is your fated person) is at odds with the jealousy that comes with a green eyed epiphany. so i think for it to even work the au has to be one where it's possible for only one person to know while the other remains unaware.

which honestly crosses out a lot the funny soulmate ideas i had involving gojo. damn.

i think the best way to go about it would be to do one of those soulmate aus where one person feels pain whenever the other feels pain or is in danger? i think that would be the most appropriate for gojo.

the next question is who's getting the epiphany. like, gonna be honest, it's probably more realistic that reader would be the one to get the epiphany to be 'oh my fucking god i'm jealous over gojo of all people. end me now.' but my au my story and we're letting the blue eyed monster get his green eyed epiphany.

because like. of course you would know that he's your soulmate because you have never really ever felt your soulmate's pain because like.... it's gojo. he's got infinity so usually get hit and feel pain (but oh ohhh it would be fun to include feeling a chest pain like heartbreak when geto leaves!!!) i think there could also just be a lot of horror in being gojo's soulmate just because of who he is lmao. so i think it'd be fun to be a reader who is trying to deny it, does not want it to be him and tries to fight it by dating other people.

on the other side of that, as a regular person, and probably a sorcerer you get banged up enough that gojo can't tell it's you. i mean people get hurt and banged up all the time, how would he know. i think too, it'd be a little funny if he got annoyed at feeling as much pain as he does because shouldn't you, whoever you are, be stronger? lmao.

actually i think it would be fun if the you that gojo knows never seems to get hurt or whatever and so he thinks you're impressive. maybe he's got a crush or thinks you're really cool, but he somehow doesn't know that you are always aching from all the secret training you do. so that way there's a bond between you for him to get jealous over.

so then, we get back to the dating people, or even like an arranged marriage type deal and gojo finds out and like, weakass soulmate be damned, he wants to be with you, whoever is trying to date you or marry you can get lost lmao. i also think that gojo would probably not want to subscribe to the whole soulmate thing. i think he'd be the type to want to make his own destiny.

it'd be fun too, if there was a conversation between you and him about it where he asks you about it in an effort to like get you to not see other people- like the notion that he could be your soulmate hasn't occurred to him (because you are strong and his soulmate is weak lmao gojo u dumbass) , and you just idk brush it off and make it seem like you don't subscribe either (and you wish you didn't)

i think the fic would kinda end with you and him going on a mission and for once you do get hurt and he feels it and it all clicks and he's like 'okay never mind soulmates are cool because it's you.

ship classifications (does a ship make sense + is it compelling?)

[gayjokes]

Roses and milk asks!

Roses- Are you in love? yeah :) i am in love with my partner and my friends and the whole entire world. my little body is chockablock full of love

Milk- describe your family. my only sibling is my twin and i love her soooo much. my parents are old antiwar leftists and raised us to be pacifists with opinions, which is baller as hell. the first thing my mom said upon getting usa citizenship was "hell yeah i can go get arrested now" so she immediately took us to occupy wall street. also here's my favorite thing that my sister ever said about me:

[askevilkyubey]

Hello!! I was wondering , what's your opinion on jedas (judas x jesus)? I'm literally jesus and my boyfriend is judas so.. please no hate! ^_^

- jesus christ of nazareth

umm... I haven't thought about them much but... would it we weird to ask who tops and bottoms..? erika was wondering..... i'm sure you're both lovely people and i hope you are well... as long as you are not a lesbian i don't really mind, jesus is not in my dni so......

[boileddogchicken]

Ask game: #36 for both?

!!!!! have fun with blorbo content !!!!!!

36. How does your character behave around people they dislike?

ella is extremely good at staying civil. unless unique circumstances arise (i.e. gay thoughts) she keeps ppl at arms length or farther, no matter her actual feelings about the person, positive or negative. she's had to deal with a lot of people that she's hated (primarily doctors and religious healers that have discounted and ignored her symptoms), and in her experience open hostility has not helped her, so she does what she can to keep interactions shallow and brief, but as a defense mechanism she tends to do this before she can get a read on how she feels about a person (unless of course she meets an undead tiefling who similarly to her is transfem and has a unique and complicated relationship with religion, in which case it's time to get the uhaul) (hey mac if ur reading this does rudel have uhauls). on the rare occasion she's not civil with someone she dislikes is because they've pushed her too far, often at which point ella will turn to violence.

erika, on the other hand, is very open about her feelings towards people, and if she doesn't like someone, she will make that known, with the most immediate change and clearest indicator being that her emoticonspeak starts to get frowny (for those not yet in the know erika is half human and half demonic android demifiend and as such she can speak in emoticons). she will also spew disparaging remarks at the subject of her ire (one time jeanne d'arc healed another party member instead of erika while she was unable to speak bc of a throat injury, and so through a jumble of gurgling, qbertspeak, and fax machine noises she managed to utter the phrase "burned at the stake" in her direction) (don't worry abt the fact jeanne darc is there hana found her on a walk AND ALMOST FUMBLED HER anyways. smt campaign sure is something. so excited for session tmrw.). but other than people not giving her the attention she deserves she for the most part likes people! (also she later apologized to ms. darc for the stake comment) (her apology included the >~< emoticon.) (i love erika so much.)

twenty questions for fic writers

62,184! (even i'm shocked... HABSFHASB)

3. What fandoms do you write for?

jujutsu kaisen, haikyuu!!, boku no hero academia

4. Top five fics by kudos

tell me about love (show me how) - gojo x reader; conversations on love

so this is what it means to be in love - gojo x reader; conversations on love

these traces of love (they outline you) - gojo x reader; conversations on love

take my time (i'll spend it all on you) - gojo x reader; conversations on love

my highest notes on tumblr are very different from my top five kudos on ao3 🥺

5. Do you respond to comments?

i try to as much as i can! i'm more responsive on tumblr just bc i feel less shy and feel more casual (?) with it, if that makes sense! ao3 comments make me feel really intimidated (even though they're all so lovely 🥺)

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

this kind-of-ex!bakugo blurb: 4:49 a.m. OR this two-shot canon-adjacent nanami fic: i'll be good to you | (you were good to me)

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

almost all of my fics have happy endings!! 🥺 i live for softness and subtle intimacies 🥺 honestly!! i think this yuuji dating app fic is the cutest tho!

8. Do you get hate on fics?

none so far, thankfully 🥺

9. Do you write smut?

very rarely, and it isn't the most explicit when i do!

10. Craziest crossover?

i've never written one!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

nope so far (as much as i'm aware), and hopefully it stays that way 🥺

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

nope!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

i used to write fics with my bsf in back in high school! it was fun brainstorming ideas with her then hehe now i currently have a collab milestone event with @stellamancer! i have other collabs but this is the only one where we're really both working on the same fic 🥺 (it's been a while, but we're working on the fics and are just waiting to finish writing everything before we post it all!)

14. All time favorite ship?

this is tough jhdbj probs edwin tho 🥺 (edward elric x winry rockbell); but i haven't read a shipfic in a long time!

15. What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

i don't want to admit this bc i am still in denial and am hoping that my stubborn ass will get the fic done still, someday 😌 so 😌 i will not speak it into existence 😌

16. What are your writing strengths?

exploring character thoughts and feelings i think 🥺 or subtle intimacies 🥺 i think i can establish relationships well 🥺

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

dialogue oh my god jhbfhjsd and i don't think my ideas are very exciting!

18. Thoughts on dialogue in another language?

i like seeing it!! i usually do the quick translate option when it pops up.

19. First fandom you wrote in?

omg. either kuroko no basuke or katekyo hitman reborn LOL but it was private to me only and is still hidden in my notes. unless we count my 1d self insert fic days (that i also kept to myself), then. HAHHA

20. Favorite fic you've written?

either this gojo one: these traces of love (they outline you) OR this nanami one: if art can be touched, will you let m hold you?

i think more than the writing itself, i just really like how i conceptualised it. it was overall really satisfying for me to write!

open tagging anyone who wants to do this!
