#this honestly took a while adsjndghfsj fantastic. im now hungry

[leviathiane]

something you learned this year, fics you wanted to write but didn’t, a fic you read this year you would recommend everyone read, favorite fandom to read fic from this year

Shbfjxbfnc finally an ask meme that doesn’t got me rushing to figure out what emoji/number is what.. love u bitch....💫

Something I learned this year It’s.... embarrassing, but,,,, How To Bookmark On AO3. I literally. Spent the past few years not understanding it and as such bookmarking almost nothing. It took me writing my own stuff and watching people bookmark it to finally figure it out and I still forget it’s a real function (same with kudos... i still 90% of the time forget kudos exist and i can, in fact, leave them with literally 0 repurcussions)

Fics I wanted to write but didn’t oh you asked the worst question this is going to take a while ☠️ not including WIPs I picked up and either forgot or just having finished, there’s about 12 I flat out never got to and 7 I will EVENTUALLY get to that haven’t been started

The 12 in order(new to old, literally reading off my prompts doc) (with probably increasingly confusing short summaries):

-Angel!Ace post-marineford au (ASL centric)

-Awakened-DF!Marco, marineford canon divergent

-Shanks and the mystery of a blue bird who takes really good care of his skin, apparently

-Shanks finds Marco on a marine ship in chains and just kinda is like... mine now

-Pianist!Ace modern!au first meeting the Whitebeards (based off that one tumblr post about someone slipping piano requests under an apartment door)

-A series of sabo meeting the whitebeards while “undercover” to the point where he’s a common story among commanders every time there’s shore leave but no one connects him to Ace

-Canon divergent where sabo was picked up by marines instead of by dragon after losing his memories

-A series of outsider-POV to ASL antics in which ace survived marineford and they all visit each other to spar and hang out at the expense of literally everyone else

-Nsfw 3-parter between shanks, buggy, Mihawk, and Marco

-Post-marineford Marco And shanks dealing with immortality and the things we are forced to leave and are left behind by (nsfw ending) (...will probably still do this one anyway. It nags at me a lot and I have Emotions)

-A marcoace to do with mating dances and extended flight metaphors ahdbdjfnjdnf don’t @ me

-Canon divergent where instead of dying corazon pulled a sabo but became a marine again, memories gone, and trying to catch law gives him a migraine for more than one reason. law is along for the ride and traumatized.

A fic I read this year that I would recommend to everyone gah just... one? Just one? One fic? This is impossible. I’m not even gonna entertain that, have 3 and thats pushing it.

Labyrinths of the Heart by izabellwit - I was in this fandom for as long as it took to read this fic. Full of hopelessness and dark themes, self hate turned poisonously outward, slow mental health related haractet development. A Gen fic excluding canon ships, 200k+ and worth it. I cried over this fic probably every chapter if I’m being honest

Blue by kurikuri - KNY is a little too fresh of a fandom to have 100k+ fic classics just yet but this one made me reread a couple times within a month tbh.. full of complex feelings and hesitation, time travel mixed with trauma and grief both + a canon divergence hat throw everything sideways a lil. Very soft

Trapped in eternity by skyleaf19 - I think this one is already on my OP Friday fic rec list but I think about her a lot and the raw pain and slow descent into trauma from ace looping the last years of his life and losing everyone he loves over and over always gets me. I get .. concerningly excited reading this fic even the fourth and fifth time ahfbjfjcnd

Favorite fandom to read fic from this year oh this one is easy jshfushfifj it’s the One Piece fandom! So far in 2019 I’ve sifted throgh BNHA, one punch man, natsume yuujincho, KNY, deltarune, Sherlock, Merlin, Hannibal, teen wolf, supernatural, Pokémon, FMA, titanfall, DBH, legend of Zelda, mob psycho 100, rise of the guardians, undertale, and marvel (into the spider verse, Spider-Man, avengers, loki-centric, etc) fandoms for new content but, OP being one of my oldest fandoms both in terms of me being connected to it as well as objective age, there’s a whole gold mine of fics that I found much easier to navigate at a frankly startling speed lmfao. It’s been great! I literally, for one of the first times, can’t seem to run out of new AND old content
