mun meme | @never-surrender was curious!

✨ Are you easily intimidated by muns or muses that you admire?

i am at first! before i have a feel for the other mun, i overthink what i say and do a lot. i worry quite a bit about coming off as annoying or too enthusiastic, which might be silly bc it's a good thing to be excited to write with your mutuals! but it's still something i worry about :' ) once we've interacted enough to kinda know each other, it's a lot easier for me to just mess around like i would with anyone!

❤️ How does the love in your heart affect how you RP? Any other notable emotions?

ooh this is such a cute and good question! and the answer is the love in my heart makes me a rambling machine!! it makes writing effortless and explaining how chiyo's mind works the easiest thing in the world!! it makes me wanna yell about chiyo so everyone will love her as much as i do :' ) but it also makes me wanna reach out to y'all and write a million things for you, even if my brain and time allow a fraction of that. love really motivates me, and that's such an adorable realization!!! i know a lot of people might say sadness or anger affects the way they rp, too, but tbh it stops me from rping. if it doesn't, my love for chiyo overpowers the negativity and we're back in business <3 i just can't be upset if i'm writing her!

Hi, it's Quill! For the fic writer asks, can you please answer 40, 56 and 65? 😘❤️

HELLO MY FRIEND THANK YOU 💛💛💛

40. If someone were to make fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you hope to see?

Ooooooh, now THAT'S a toughie. And and all art of my fic would be recived with literal tears of joy, but let's narrow it down lmao. Discounting my horny ass just wanting aaaallll the art of my smutty side account fic (and tbh more horny art of the Cat King in general), I think it would be lovely to see art of Lonely Bones, considering how much time and feeling has gone into it and considering I think you could have a lot of fun with moody compositions. Somewhere Beyond the Sea is only on it's first chapter but especially from chapter two onwards it's gonna have so many fun and whimsical things/characters to draw! I'd also be an absolute GLUTTON for more of mine and L and H's 1920s poly boys as seen in Keep Me Warm, Love Me Long, Be My Sunlight, but that's a bit more niche!

If I had to pick one singular scene, I think I'd melt like butter if someone drew Charles in subspace getting therapeutically, nonsexually dommed by Edwin with silly cat's cradle games in ’Cause You Cut Through All the Noise. I'm so fond of that fic you have no idea.

56. What’s something about your writing that you pride yourself on?

Character voices!! I need to rewatch DBDA again soon to refresh my memory lest I drift into made-up voices but generally speaking I think my dialogue characterisation is pretty fun and believable!

65. Tell us about what you’re most looking forward to writing – in your current project, or a future project

I am looking forward to each and every aspect of the 1920s AU I'm working on with @dear-monday and @tw0-ravens, but especially the Thomas dialogue/arc/letters. I'm also huuuugely looking forward to writing my Edge Chronicles AU, but mostly for the world, vibes and character backstories especially pertaining to Edwin -- I'm currently struggling a bit with finding the actual plot, though! I'm also SO excited for the rest of Somewhere Beyond the Sea, there's going to be so much fun and whimsy and fantasy and sweetness, I'm really excited for the bits I've added as well as the bits I'm adapting from the source material!

Get to know your fic writer!

(And because you asked me to talk about WIPs, here we go, a very short, rough snippet of the Edge Chronicles AU from my notes app -- flashback to Charles and Edwin's first meeting!)

It was freezing cold in the prowlgrin roost. Maybe not up in the nests and the roosting poles, where the big old beasts dozed by the light of the burning braziers, the lucky sods. But down in the straw and the muck the winter chill was biting, creeping through every crack in the ancient slats. Charles was huddling down pathetically, dragging the ratty old prowlgrin tarp tighter round his shoulders, when he heard a creak. Louder than the wind through the slats, slower. The door. He froze, holding his breath. The air had... changed. It was crackling with something, making Charles' hair stand on end. And then, footsteps.  Charles shrank back, tried to make himself small. But the shape that stepped into the roost wasn't any boy that he knew — anyone who might be looking to finish what they'd started. It was... strange. It was like looking at those old barkscroll woodcuts from way back; those odd, early academic knights with the leather armour, all tooled and riveted. Like something out of a fairytale. It looked at him, right at him, and pulled off its leather helmet and underneath was just… a boy. Not like any boy he'd seen, though. Pale, worryingly so, and gaunt, eyes the most piercing blue he'd ever seen; unearthly, iridescent. Like open, uncharted sky. "I was looking for the library," said the boy, softly, hoarsely, like he hadn't used his voice in a good long while. "It used to be here, did it not?" Charles frowned, for a moment too confused to be scared. Of all the things to be looking for! "Not anymore, mate. Moved it 'cuz of the rot, didn't they? That was what, thirty years back or summit." "Thirty years..." he hummed like a rumbling storm. "Right. If you might point me in the right direction — I have some very important reading to do.” Charles was starting to think the dunk in the lake had frozen his brain. "It's three in the morning,” he said, baffled. The boy knelt before him, and raised his hand. Charles watched, horrorstruck, as his long, slender fingers lost their shape and stretched, vaporous, into elongated strands of crystalline cirrus. "It is rather pressing," said the boy, deadpan.

And some of my tests of the art style so far 😊 this AU's gonna take me a WHILE with the illustrations as well as the writing lmao

[honeygrahambitch]

[rapha-reads]

Batfam fandom, any recent Jason Todd-centric, Batfam feels, coming-home or reconciliation fics to recommend? I want to read my boy getting his hugs and his family and his tea time with his grandpa.

(back to reading Jay fics for the first time in several months and I'm having feels)

[bikananjarrus]

i finally started reading the high republic books! i finished light of the jedi last night, so here are a few of my (non-spoilery) thoughts:

jedi doing cool shit with the force is my favorite thing and there is SO much good jedi doing cool shit with the force content

also the way the force was described was just, really beautiful. it's been a while since any visual star wars medium has really made me feel in awe of the force, but this did the job so well.

the little worldbuilding aspects were really cool. (hypserspace travel still being developed, bacta isn't mass-produced yet, etc.) this book was just a really nice reminder about how cool and strange and fun the star wars galaxy can be (when actual effort is put into making it that way)

on that note, god it felt good to have good star wars content. like this was SO. GOOD. (and i'm so so excited to move onto the next books, but i kind of didn't want this one to end bc charles soule is such a beautiful writer. and he made every pov interesting and engaging; i was never bored)

i think maybe my favorite pov to read from was bell's. he made me laugh, and soule wrote him in such a way that was youthful but not childish, and it was just such a joy reading his pov. i felt so connected to him immediately, and was so proud of him by the end of the book! can't wait to see where his story goes. (also i love his and loden's relationship and i have SO many feelings about the end of the book like..... iykyk.)

avar and elzar. avar and elzar. AVAR AND ELZAR. they've got me down so. bad. help.....i love both of them individually, and their dynamic together is everything to me actually. (i have so many more thoughts on them, but i’ll come back to them later)

another bullet point to again say how much i LOVE jedi doing cool shit with the force, and relating it to elzar and a) how he describes the force as an endless sea.... yeah. i'm in love w that description; and b) him wanting to push boundaries, explore all that the force is capable, is just really really cool.

the epilogue. I have not stopped thinking about it. like i got yearning and terrifying force visions all in one chapter?? charles soule did that for ME <3

i'm reading the main books for phase one in order, so next up is test of courage, then into the dark. (even though i reallyyyy want to just go right to the rising storm lol)

[redfurrycat]

Hangaroo/Hangster AU - Mobster!Jake x Undercover Cop!Bradley (yay? Nay? I’ve always had a thing for the cop x criminal trope myself 😁❤️)

Hey 🤗

I love every possible combination: Mafia Boss!Bradley or Mafia Boss!Jake. Or rival Mafia Bosses.

With the other being a cop or a sex worker, or fleeing a shitty situation, [I'm so referring to actual fics brilliant people wrote 😃❤️]

*

Now, I'm going to twist your ask a little bit.

Bradley is a detective, yeah, and does undercover work too, BUT one day he's assigned to a new partner for a special case. (Phoenix being his BFF & usual partner <3)

This new partner though? Tall, Tanned and Texan. He's charming, very much cocky, and scarily smart. And Detective Bradshaw doesn't stand a fucking chance.

He tries to get close to him, but Detective Hudner is tight-lipped. Seems to stay focused on the case, and the case only. And Bradley can understand that (makes him all hot and bothered to watch Detective Hudner biting his lip and reflecting on possible suspects). Still they work and close the case in the end.

The day after, Detective Bradshaw goes to his temporary partner's desk to see if he's available for a drink or sth (😉).

Except there's too much activity going on in the precinct. Very unusual.

This is when he's called by Chief Detective Simpson in his office and learns the truth.

There never was a Detective Hudner.

It was a cover for one Jacob Seresin, the Mobster Boss' son from the Cavalieri della Morte gang. Never once spotted before. Always working in the shadows....

So, why this sudden interest in a more exposing job that is working for the local police? What is Seresin's true motives?

And more importantly, what will Detective Bradshaw do with this piece of information?

(I was feeling inspired and wanted a reverse undercover kind of thing? 😅)

Have a sweet day! 🥰

aro toga, dabi, and ochako...

i LOVE you /p

Toga: forever quest to break the belief that romantic love is the purest love starts NOW. she feels like every type of attraction at 500% break the counter kinda intensity but romantic love is completely just Not There. which is why she "falls in love" so quickly, and why her criteria is so based on appearance and how roughed up and bloody someone is. I think she never could unlock the quirk copy part of her quirk until Ochako because she never had the occasion to truly get to know someone, and with Ochako and Twice mostly she could actually get to know and like/love someone based on their personality and their actions as well as their appearance and such. Power of friendship or something. The rest of the league helped her with that too, she truly liked Magne and Touya like older siblings and she admired Tomura to an extent (on top of liking him for being a good boss). Mr Compress is that kind of adult figure in your life that's a bit embarrassing but that's cool to be around anyway. Like your cringe middle aged colleague who understands half of what you're saying and calls you miss. I also think her being aro adds to the part where everyone called her broken because she wasn't able to love like everyone else. The way she loves is wrong and bad and dirty and she hates that. anyway, generally i like saying ochako is aro rather than toga but god the queer allegory DEF can be an aro allegory with her and i love saying characters who r so based in love and romance are aro. it's always fun

Dabi: literally cannot seriously ship him with anyone in my mind's eye anymore he's too aro. might be aplatonic too honestly but i feel that could just be how focused he is on his goal and how little he (tries to) care about others. i'm not here to make friends or something whatever. Aromantic aplatonic dabi is a banger either way. i think he'd be like fraysexual too maybe. i think dabi fucks tho like undeniably he fucks

Ochako: HELLO. HELLO !!!

So I'm gonna make a post specifically for her but like. Aro ochako to me is expanding on the comphet izuocha headcanon not only is she doing compulsory heterosexuality she is doing compulsory alloromanticism too (if that's a thing idk. you get the point). i think shed be so used to girls loving boys and people loving someone, always, anyone, as long as they love someone, that she would latch onto whatever feelings she found for izuku and when her "crush" was somehow validated by aoyama and mina, she would completely sink into it. and then she meets toga, who loves differently, who preaches being yourself no matter what, who refuses to call herself broken or even different, and she'd be fascinated by her. even beyond the desperate need to save her and the need to get to know her and talk like normal girls, she'd see this girl who can smile so happily about the way she loves people, and she'd be jealous to death. she wouldn't even get by the "i must be in love with her" stage at all either she'd just know. in my mind's eye i imagine togachako fight where ochako tries to explain to toga that she loves differently too that she's weird and oaughhh.... sorry obsessed with this

[not-neverland06]

I just wanna say I search your tumblr everyday and read your fics over and over again! They are amazing! 💜

you guys need to stop being nice to me.

im on my period and can't stop crying

[bee-sidebranch]

HAPPY 👏 BIRTHDAY 👏

Aww thank you 🥺 i wonder what's inside

[kuppikahvia]

Samara for the character ask :D

omg yeeesss thank you for sending me a character and sorry for taking so long I had to think about it for a while!!

favorite thing about them

I love her voice so probably that <3 but as a character my favorite thing about her is her loyalty to the Code, i find that really interesting

least favorite thing about them

I think there was a lot of unused potential in her deciding her new Code is to follow Shepard's morals and choices. Not really a thing I dislike about her but yeah I think they could've done more with it

favorite line

"you know Zaeed, there's nothing wrong with silence between two friends" or like basically the whole Citadel DLC conversation with Zaeed 😭

brOTP

No surprises here probably given the last answer but Zaeed lol

OTP and nOTP

I don't really ship her with anyone so I kinda feel like every ship would be my nOTP lmao only platonic ships here!!

random headcanon

Related to the least favorite thing part but I think Samara does have her own morals that don't fully align with the Code and she has a lot of internal conflict about it

unpopular opinion

idk how unpopular this opinion is but i've seen some people complain about her design but i actually really like it I think it's very cool and fitting!

song i associate with them

I'm sorry I don't really have any songs but pls lmk if you have songs y'all associate with her bc i'd like to listen!!

favorite picture of them

this genre of pictures i love them all <3

✨ send me a character ✨

[popcornkwantum]

mischief monday!

Lincoln carries him along the road, piggyback style and holding onto Taylor’s cane with his right hand while his other strokes the back of his knee with his left.

It’s exhausting, running and striking his sword through enemy after enemy while trying to protect his friends. Lincoln offered to help him on their way back to the catbus, but it wasn’t until he leaned down into the dirt that Taylor realized exactly what he meant.

“Doing okay, Tay?” Linc whispers it so the others can’t hear them as they trail closer to the back of their team. Taylor doesn’t move from his chin hooked over his shoulder, watching Normal skipping without thought ahead of them, smiling like the sun as he speaks to Hermie and Scary.

“Better,” Taylor admits, “Thanks for the help.”

“Yeah, of course.” His thumb strokes again, tickling him a little, but mostly just feeling nice, “Anytime, Tay.” The happiness in his voice matched with the way the tension in his body relaxes tells him all he needs to know about how true that is. “Want me to put you down now?”

No he doesn’t. Instead of using words, Taylor shoves his face against his neck, humming.

SOFT SWIFTLI!!! Lincoln carrying Taylor and stroking his knee as an assuring and safe gesture and Taylor just burying his face into Lincoln and HUMMING instead of giving a verbal answer and just the look of it in my head is just overall really cute!! I humbly thank you for the cute swiftli! :D

1 + 8 for Nova & 12 + 17 for Isa? 💚

🩷🥺

Nova:

1.How did you choose their name?

A) Ak'nova Bartman James... when I was doodling her, I knew I wanted her to have a unique name. And my first thought was, her parents are hippies.. so what would people who want peace and love name their love child..? I think they would see her as a pivotal part of the universe.. and so a star came to mind. A big fire ball star that could erupt at any moment and in that moment shines brighter than the rest. So Nova(or supernova lol)

8. If your character's financial situation were to suddenly flip (someone poor becoming rich, someone rich becoming poor, etc), how well would they handle it? What would be the first thing they would do?

A)I think Nova would be okay! She'd be in shock at first, but she's never been one for expensive things. Her father is the one who gives her all the material. Obviously, she's grateful, but she gives her money away (or uses it to give everyone else gifts). All in all, I think she'd be able to get back up on her feet. She's charismatic, and it wouldn't take her long to find a job and keep it lol.

Isabela:

12. Has your character committed any crimes (per their universe's laws)? If not, which crime would your character most likely commit?

A) She hasn't committed any crimes, but I'd like to think if she were to, it would be carrying a gun without a license or.. attempted murder lol.

17. Is your character holding any grudges? Are they likely to stop?

A) Isabela is holding quite a few, lol. She'd let them go if they were resolved appropriately, but until then, she will be holding them against who they're meant for.

Thank you for asking 🥹🩷💋😈🫠💗

[crumpet-doodles]
