✨yikesola's fic reference guide✨

Hello hello! To celebrate writing 300 fics I thought I would compile in a single place links to the videos or instas or whatevers that the particular fic is referencing/based on :) Enjoy—

I only started reading the opm manga after the first season, but recently I took a look at the first volumes and kinda caught me off guard that the scene where Genos steps in while people are booing Saitama for destroying the meteor wasn't in the manga :O

That and the scene right after with Genos confessing his love admiration for Saitama are one of those gems that the anime gave us :")

Ahhh~ 😌 Oh gosh anon, your message takes me back to 2016, good times.

And it's true, s1 gave us so many heartwarming gems like that, with in my opinion, enhanced direction over what the manga gave us. Where now, looking back in hindsight, only support how much Genos was built up as Saitama's emotional anchor--

Stepping in to calm him down when certain battles just weren't worth it, and assuring/comforting him with his support (aka his unwavering faith and devotion) that even if the whole world shuns and turns against him, Saitama still wouldn't be alone, because Genos would still be there to follow him at his side~ Ah yes, the good stuff right there.

kinda interesting how Mike has two big speeches throughout the show, both when a character he cares for is close to death and needs help but only one strictly calls for him reminding them of a cherished past moment yet he chooses to use the same formula for both, telling them about how they met and how it made him feel, almost as if he was struggling the second time and relied on what he knew worked the first time to try and help..

@hprecfest day 5: non ao3

This was such a hard one. I only do ao3 nowadays, so I started to think waaaaay back when I was a teeny weeny child exploring the internet getting my fanfiction fix. I used to read (and write, oh god) only in Finnish in a Finnish HP fanfiction forum, which became my internet home. I met some of my closest friends on that forum 🫶🫶 These fics are an essential part of my lore so enjoy these three early 2000's stories:

Seamus is Seamus and You are Yourself by Ari Munami 🩵 ff.net, 36,741 words, draco/harry

Harry goes through some... er, changes before Sixth Year. Everyone, including Draco Malfoy, sits up and takes notice. DM/HP.

This was my favorite fic at some point. Harry had a massive glow up during the summer (aka he got rid of his glasses???) and became the hottest shit in Hogwarts. Everybody and their mothers were thirsting after him. I ate this up and left no crumbs. This story features *a lot* of asterisks, and is the most unhinged shit ever. All the POVs are so fucking hilarious. I'm still low-key loving this 22 years after it was published. Not the freshest fic by far as what comes to it’s contents so yeah it’s a bit sus

Welcome to the Real World by IamtheLizardQueen 🩵 ff.net, 124,521 words, draco/harry

A Harry/Draco romance, set post-Hogwart's in muggle London. Includes red mittens, linoleum, witty retorts, angst, love, dance clubs, strange friends, cooking shows, and coffee not necessarily in that order !

This I started to read as a translation when I was 14 I guess? The translator continued to post this until chapter 10 or so and vanished from the forum and then I read the rest in English. I checked and the translation was finished by another translator later. I can't remember much of this fic but I remember being so invested in it. Time to try to re-read I guess

Little Pink Pills by MushroomAnn 🩵 ff.net, 21,504 words, draco/harry

Two young boys, one last fight, two little pills called Ecstasy and one long detention. A.N: written after OotP and set during sixth year. Warning: drug use!

I checked and this has been crossposted to ao3 as well, but I'm including it anyways. I was probably around 15 when I read this (translated as well) and it completely altered my brain chemistry. Harry and Draco rolling on molly is the purest and most endearing thing ever. I absolutely love this fic so much and now re-reading it made me so happy, I could feel the ecstasy love oozing from me as well as the comedown. I really had no idea of anything when I first read this, so now that I'm older and wiser and done my fair share of stuff it just hits different

For the ask game: sage and maybe cactus? Have a good trip!

Thank you so much for these and for your well wishes, my friend! :)

Cactus - Something you’re currently learning (about)?

I've answered this one already but I'm going to take the opportunity now to humble-brag about my Scottish Gaelic Duolingo streak which, at the time of posting, stands at 1380 days - that's almost four years of daily learning!

Duolingo being as flawed as it is, I'd not say I'm anywhere near fluent and I'm far more confident reading and writing than actually speaking Gàidhlig. But still, I try to round out my understanding where I can by independent reading, listening to Gaelic music and watching Gaelic-language TV too, and I really do think that helps.

Sage - What medium of art (poetry, music, fiction, paintings, statues, etc.) is the most touching to you? Why do you think that is?

I thought about this one for a long, long time and I'm still not sure what my answer is...!

Music and literature are huge parts of my life, of course, but if I really had to decide I think I'd go for painting, sculpture, and other forms of fine art.

As for a reason, I'm not sure of my answer on that either!

I literally went to art school for four years at undergrad so I suppose it's simply the medium about which I feel I have the greatest knowledge and understanding both in terms of meaning/symbolism/theory and of pure practicality.

Transcript below

Marco: We should go. 

Max: I’m sorry I followed you. I should have respected your privacy.

Marco: Y' should’ve. But I’m kinda glad you didn’t.

Max: Why?

Marco: Because your presence here, with her, reminds me why I’m helping you out.

Max: So you admit you’re pitying me. I told you I don’t need this. 

Marco: Let’s just say we’re helping each other out. Okay?

Marco: I was like you once.

[wewontbesleeping]

I’m alone! On my own! And that’s all I know! I’ll be strong! I’ll be wrong! Oh, but life goes on. I’m just a girl, trying to find a place in this world. You’re on your own, kid. You always have been.

whats your favorite book! tell us more about youuu

oooof.... i haven't read books in such a long time!! i was a teenager last time i did, probably.

i remember the whole percy jackson and the olympians very fondly to this day. i'd love to read them all again now that i'm more mature and see if my perspective on it has changed hahaha

i also remember really liking The Horse and His Boy by CS Lewis??? i'd love to read that again as well.

i don't know if i can call any of them my favourite books considering it's been so long since i read them and i can hardly remember the details, but i remember i used to feel very warm inside while reading them.
