It’s a nice memory.

She’s poolside with a bunch of folks she hasn’t seen in awhile, but is happy to see. Her hair’s back to sunstreaked brown for all the interviews she’s been doing for the early leap to grad school dirtside, where they don’t want their students too high maintenance and her blue and purple waves were a little too much.

The lime green bikini was in her drawer where she’d left it two years ago and it’s probably too small but hey.

Girl’s gotta live while she’s young.

And it made dad’s blood pressure go up, which is where she likes it. Scott rebels his way, enlisting even though dad had him a place at the academy. She’s got her own.

Mom laughed, that rusty laugh. She looks good, tan and her face filling back out, so maybe the docs are wrong.

So she’s having a good time. There’s a drink in her hand she’s not exactly legal for, but it’s a family party.

And it’s flattering when someone it takes her a blink to recognize slides into the space Bobbi left when she went for a swim.

Someone with an easy going grin, a hint of silver to his hair, a pair of gorgeous eyes, and a low purr to his, “So, I don’t think we’ve met but…”

Right before he blinks wide and nearly swallows his tongue. “Sara?”

“Hiya, Harry.”

Idea for a very weird Time Quangle - the "Oops, All Animals"-Quangle. Maybe someone else has already thought of this one, but as far as I know, it's my own brainchild. It's inherently weird because it would have to include characters from some Aabria-seasons to work.

Brian Murphy as either Kugrash or Gerard the Frog Prince

Emily Axford as Lady Chirp Featherfowl

Lou Wilson as Lord Squak Airavis

Zac Oyama as Puss-in-Boots

Ally Beardsley as Lars Vandenchomp

Siobhan Thompson as Jaysohn

This already is stretching the definition of "animal" a bit, because Chirp and Squak are humanoid Fae reminiscent of specific birds. But working from the assumption that we want the Intrepid Heroes cast, they seem to me to make the most sense.

Could potentially also make arguments for Lapin Cadbury (technically a rabbit, but primarily a Candian), Sir Theodore Gumbar (technically a bear, but primarily a Candian), Ylfa Snorgelson (because werewolf), Ricky Matsui (specifically from the time he was turned into a dog, and he was the bestest boy), Riva or Skip (being of species that are on exhibit in a zoo might qualify them, although they are fully sentient), or Mother Goose (reeeaaally stretching the definitions of "animal" now, but there is the whole "are you the goose or the witch riding the goose" thing, so).

Most obvious setting seems like it would be the Of Mice and Murder setting that Lars is native to. But Neverafter would work well too, and honestly, any setting could be made to work, some a lot more easily than others.

Funniest setting I can think of would be for them all to get caught in the St Dotto's field from MisMag2 and be fully drawn into it as medical professionals, and just run a short medical drama Time Quangle campaign.

They're all from D&D (or D&D-compatible) settings, so it works from that perspective.

Biggest problem: keeping PiB from eating Jaysohn. Or in turn, keeping Jaysohn from murdering PiB in some extreme body horror way. They're both from body horror seasons. It would not be pretty.

I suspect Squak might be into Gerard at first, but Gerard has... trauma re: birds of prey (RIP to the Freds), so that would probably not work out. Squak and Lars, on the other hand...

I have thoughts, lol.

I feel as if I live up to my role as Watson to Purrlock because I have seen your posts on this blog but never figured out it was you... (c'mon, brain!)

Demurely requesting a Hallowe'en figurine...? Anything you love about Hallowe'en, though I would love to see punpkins!

Aaeeii! I'm so excited, and absolutely delighted with this spooky little request! You wanted pumpkins I made pumpkins :) and no worries, I know it's a little hard to keep track on everything being posted. (especially when I flood you all with my obsessions)

An unsuccessful scarecrow, in a field of pumpkins.

I also threw in a goose. Because I can't help myself apparantly. Fun fact! Geese are the first thing I ever figured out how to make from clay!

If you liked these guys take a look at what else I do. I'm always open to requests because strange interesting thing s to make sure a challenge and I am sorry lacking in them at the moment!

Happy Halloween!

(and thanks for this ask, totally made my day)

the au where human-kurama thinks he's feeding a stray cat but is really feeding a hiei

Okay I've got two very similar but different Dandadan fics in my head and I can't decide which to do. I'm actually surprised a variation of one of these ideas hasn't made it onto the English side of AO3 tbh. I've also got a a couple other ideas which I probably won't do first because they're not as fleshed out as the others to me.

Anyway, all of these are kind of in the still fleshing it out stage in my brain. I'm hoping writing them down might get my brain to flesh something out enough to run with it.

Concept 1: Okarun is actually the actor Ken Takakura who time traveled from the late 1940's to Japan of the 2020's. He doesn't believe in ghosts because time traveling to a place where he's already dead means he doesn't want to come across his own ghost. This is part of why Okarun will be able to utilize that out of body experience stuff as a power because his soul is a bit loosey goosey at the moment. Momo is both shocked and a bit !!!! because it was already weird when Okarun had the same name as her favorite actor but now it's just hella weird (but she's not opposed to this). Unfortunately, Okarun does indeed have to eventually return to the late 40's. The fic ends with Turbokarun making it so Okarun and Momo can reunite several decades into the future once Okarun finishes the lifespan of the actor.

Concept 2: Okarun isn't the actor he's named after his mother's favorite actor. Okarun is a time traveler from 2002, which is why he has a flip phone. One night, Momo and the girls are watching a show about missing people. A man who's in his 40's or 50's talks about his little brother who disappeared decades ago. They realize the missing person is Okarun. Okarun admits he's been here for only a few months before Momo became his friend. He's been kind of rolling with all of this. He lives alone. He's been using his own bank account which has been accruing interest for the past 20 or so years. He doesn't want to bother his family about this. He doesn't think they'll believe him. He was always more interested in aliens than his brother and parents were. Not sure what the ending is.

Concept 3: Momo is an alien and Okarun is a ghost. Seiko found Momo in a peach blossom or maybe St. Germaine is Momo's dad and he found her and brought her to Seiko. Okarun is either a) the ghost of the actor who's been dead for the whole time Okarun has been "alive" or b) just a ghost of some random kid or c) one of the two but he can hop into dead bodies and so this isn't the body he started with. Not sure how this one plays out or ends yet.

Concept 4: Okarun misses class, the gang goes to his house and finds out he actually lives alone. Not sure where this one goes or if possibly it's part of one of the concept 1 or 2 fics.

ur rb abt the bottom jensen energy is soooo real puppyboy jared is so valid

Right?? RIGHT???

Sometimes, the top has to be the most pathetic, whimpery little pup getting used...as a treat :).

Ugh okay I really want to write that though 💘.

[goldeneyedgirl]

you see now i need a one shot of jasper seeing alice in a formal wear for the first time

Added to the 'to write' list, Anon. I have ideas.

[cuckoo-among-beasts]

AUs I intend on one day writing up:

Huaisang truly breaks from his brother's death and the Headshaker really is who he is now. It's not an act. [x]

Huaisang's mum was a Jin.

Huaisang never escapes from the Wen sect and when that still isn't enough to stop Nie from fighting them, they make it seem like they killed Huaisang. He is, in fact, alive. More or less. [x]

Huaisang being raised by the Wen sect. When their father die, they swoop in and takes Huaisang to raise him until Mingjue is of age. They claim it's to help him, but he is actually a hostage in a try to keep the young Nie-zongzhu in check. They have no intentions of returning him. [x]

Cultivators are mythical creatures that can take human shape. The Nie Clan are either Chaofeng or Xiezhi. (I have seen them as Taotie, but since that's a "demonic creature", it doesn't really fit imo.)

Self-indulgent fic idea #1:

Working title: Below the Tamaracks

Fandoms: Little Nightmares, Eli the Barrow Boy (the Decemberists)

Tags: canonical character death, non-canonical character undeath

Mono encounters another boy in the wilderness. They hang out.

Eli may or may not crawl out of the ground while Mono is watching. Probably though Mono comes across him sitting in the churchyard and he just looks suspiciously like he crawled out of a grave. Spooky, bittersweet fluff. That sort of thing.

i wish ao3 allowed people to give kudos per each chapter. These 100k word NOVELS need more love than 200 tiny digital hearts ☹️

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

I firmly believe that some stories can never be translated into a different medium and that's okay

[uozlulu]

A Discord group I'm in: Here's a prompt list for Pride month. Let's write some DM fics! Me: Oh boy oh boy! I've not written for this fandom in a while Me: [reads all the prompts] Me: [several hours later] Me: Low key want to write a fic where when Claudia runs away she ends up in France and meets Santiago and in turn the coven Me: Me: Me: Many thoughts not sure if I can write them but many thoughts and none of them what I thought I'd get inspiration to write

See, my take on the initial premise

our invariably heterosexual leads fall in love after a night of passion leads to an unplanned pregnancy and they're now bound together by an impending child. ... I want to see a zany romance novel premised on the opposite resolution: a couple falls in love while on a whirlwind roadtrip to obtain a legal abortion

was that it would be a lesbian love story. A girl and her friend (or rival, or frenemy, or college room mate who was always surly when she went on dates with male-presenting people, etc) road tripping to terminate an unwanted pregnancy and falling in love along the way.

Of course, having read OP's follow-up posts, I now understand that's not the premise they had in mind. Unless the sperm-provider is trans, I guess.

But at least even when I got it wrong, I was not actively ignoring the core part of the premise being that some people don't want to be parents, and that's a valid choice.

there's an extremely niche plot in romance fiction wherein our invariably heterosexual leads fall in love after a night of passion leads to an unplanned pregnancy and they're now bound together by an impending child. I cast no judgment on anyone who enjoys this, but since I'm an evil gay and this is my personal nightmare scenario I want to see a zany romance novel premised on the opposite resolution: a couple falls in love while on a whirlwind roadtrip to obtain a legal abortion

What place do you write from? For when you're creating a poem for the very first time?

Well, mostly I'd be listening to music and then suddenly a word or a sentence in the song will suddenly strike and resonate with me and all of a sudden that turns into the first two lines of my new poem or poetry and before I know it, I have a whole thing written. The thing is, it is mostly based on how I feel in that moment ,then the words come or if i had gone through something painful recently. It all depends on my emotional state at the time and I'll be writing and drawing from that place and that is how most of my poems are usually born.
