[subjectivemortality]

Terrible memory strikes again, I have no idea where that toaster post went

@mesonoxianmonster Do you happen to remember what toaster you assigned me, a while back? It was very cute and I'm in the market for a new one

[a-memory-a-distant-echo]

NO WAIT i'm hijacking this post because i saw the tags on prev and realised that i've literally just had to tell several different people to please go read the writer's first fic in the mlc fandom, the floating clouds, no resting place, because it is SO GOOD and if op won't link it directly, i damn well will.

it's just. it's very good. please go read it.

wip wednesday, mlc fic snippet

It is technically Thursday for me already, but only by 20 minutes, so *slides this in under the wire*

This is from the sequel to the floating clouds, no resting place if I ever manage to kick it into shape. Feat. Li Lianhua and Di Feisheng, but my difanghua agenda is alive and well.

"A-Fei." Li Lianhua swallows, then tries again. "Feisheng." That wins him a tart little huff, like the dry husk of a laugh that got caught in Di Feisheng's throat. "No one calls me that." "What would you like to be called, then?" As diversions go, it is more of an accidental tumble than a deft sidestep. "I could ask you the same thing." The thing that Di Feisheng truly wants to know—the thing that haunts his every step—is layered underneath. Who is Li Lianhua now, in this new life of his? Where is the man Di Feisheng once knew like a shadow knows a body? "I—" Li Lianhua hesitates. It is a newfound relief to do so without artifice. But Di Feisheng has earned an answer. "I am Fang Xiaobao's friend. I am your friend. And I'm afraid He Xiaohui will start calling me her son-in-law any day now, though I'm tragically unlikely to ever continue her family line." Di Feisheng shakes his head. His husky laugh curls around Li Lianhua's heart. "Your affairs are a worse mess than mine, Li Lianhua." And there, again, he is gently pinned by a beloved eye, heard by a familiar ear. What a strange thing, to be so known. He could, perhaps, get used to it.

New Red Dwarf Challenge

Day 25: Favourite fanfic, fanart, or fan-related work (Part 1)

I can’t pick just one, so I am doing two rec lists.  One rec per author.  Lister / Rimmer unless otherwise stated.

This isn’t supposed to be any kind of definitive list, just some personal favourites.  Merry Christmas!

@lord-valery-mimes - “Coitus Interruptus” (M).  Lister and Rimmer get cockblocked by Talkie Toaster.  I said what I said.  Hilarious.

@veronica-rich - “Therapy” (E).  Several years before Snacky, this writer anticipated Doug by having Rimmer get therapy.

RoseCathy - “In My Eyes” (G).  Yes, I said G. ;)  An AU where shy, awkward optician Arnold Rimmer nurses a hopeless - or is it? - crush on his charming young assistant Dave Lister and can’t get up the nerve to ask him out.  Help comes from a most unlikely source…

This is, quite simply, adorable fluff of the fluffiest kind.  Heartwarming.

@cazflibs - “The Morning After” (M).  Hilarious crack where Lister wakes up after drunkenly celebrating his birthday to find he ended up partying with a bevy of recent Red Dwarf guest characters.

Kronette - “Back To Life” (E).  Ace and an alternate version of Lister play Cupid for “Back To Earth” era Lister and Rimmer.

Gingertime (Attheborder) - “The High Road Is Hard To Find” (T).  Technically Lister / Kochanski but mostly gen.  Sadly unfinished, but it’s so good I’m reccing it anyway.  Author summary - It’s Kochanski’s turn to be the hero.

Queen_Fiend (pau22) - “A Record Of My Life As A Human, By Kryten 2X4B 523P” (T).  Kryten’s journal whilst briefly human during “DNA”.  He struggles with his newly human feelings for Lister and a jealous Rimmer.  Yes, a Lister / Kryten fic but it’s human Kryten experiencing one-sided feelings for Lister.  Clarifying that in the hope that this fic will get more readers as it really deserves them.

@downonthepharm-red-dwarf - “Buzz”. Hilarious crack involving a talking vibrator.  Yes, really.

Tunglo - “Ship’s Summer” (E).  Author summary - Rimmer gets what he's always wanted. But it's Rimmer, so of course it isn't that simple. 

Horselizard - “All In The Mind” (E).  Author summary - There comes a time in every Red Dwarf slash writer's career when they must write a Terrorform fic. ;) Porn without plot... almost.  Smoking hot.

@fecklesheckleshacklesschmeckles

End of Part 1. Part 2 here. https://www.tumblr.com/janamelie/770805561939886080/new-red-dwarf-challenge?source=share

Each brother learns new things about each other and finally get to take a few deep breaths.

Surface Pressure by TheKeyBladeMaster1994

Mikey watched Encanto and something abut their family feels familiar. Honest to go so good, it is unfinished and only at 3 chapters but it is 32k words and by god if it isnt one of the best books I have read over 5 times already, featuring mikey being a helpful little brother and managing to stress his big brothers out in the proccess.

Pretend That I Never Left by redstingraven (sirimiri)

2003 Mikey gets taken into the Horizon Zero Dawn universe rather than the superpowered turtle universe in the SAINW episode. Positively glorious, he gets bashed and bruised and comes out the other end with an arrow sticking out of him.

All The Small Things by taizi @taizi

2012 Donnie gets deaged and Mikey gets to be a big brother. Positively adorable, Mikey is an enabler and the poor toaster will never be the same, plus just the right amount of angst to make me squeal.

Underdark by Nekotsuki

2003 Mikey and Leo and stuck in the sewers after a collapse, both are hurt and oh looky here it seems Leo has fainted and Mikey is panicking, it would be great if he could take a full breath to hyperventilate with.

We've been here all along by Taizi

Beautiful 2007 tmnt, Mike gets shot, worries about making Donnie abandon him, Casey says fuck that.

walk with open hands by taizi

Mikey can't get over his fathers death and knows his brothers cant get over it either, and he is going to do something about it, been if it almost costs him everything. Was originally 1 chapter, but a second chapter from Splinters POV makes everything gorgeous.

traveling so far to get there by taizi

different age turtles, 2012 universe, Mikey and Raph gets transported to a post-apocalypses time-line aptly called the after party, no one lives, but Mikey does manage to find himself a monkey companion and Raph really wishes his little brother and him would be back home. Little moment of Mikey and Donnie being twins that is positively adorable and I need more of it ASAP. Its 10k words but reads like 30 in the best way possible, like literally a must read!

Closer by Taizi

adorable human woodyangelo

Problem child by taizi

human AU, Mikey is going to give his big brothers a heart attack, he makes questionable friends, and it seems he has a lot of growing up to be doing

Things You Never Outgrow by taizi

Mikey might just have picked up some less than stellar habits from his family as a baby, and now its coming out to bite him in the butt as his brothers notice.

Know the world in yourself by taizi

Donatello is an aspiring Egyptologist, and close friends with part-time thief and sometimes-scoundrel Casey Jones, who pickpockets an ancient map of the fabled City of the Dead off a young man he stumbles across in the Casbah—a young adventurer, it turns out, and none other than the little brother Donatello hasn't seen in almost eight years

Small spaces by Taizi

After 2012 Mikey gets captured and held by the Kraang, it seems he might just have a new fear, his brothers are not happy about it.

While you're here enjoy the view by taizi

Cute little woodyangelo 2012. They have my heart

Sleepwalking by TheKeybladeMaster1994

Splinter wakes up in a cold sweat and notices that Mikey is missing, and it seems like a dark entity is after his littlest sons light, good thing its just a nightmare, right? A few nights later it seems that is not so. Only 4 chapters but has 30k words and is a positive joy to read, I hope it continues to update.

The Ultimate Weapon by TheKeybladeMaster1994

Mikey is pure of heart and just about everything knows it, including but not limited to an eldritch entity that he swears is just try to make his life hard no matter what it tells you.

Interrogation or Malpractice by Professor_Anxietree

2012 Mikey when he got captured by the triceritons, their mind reading machine doesn't do quite what was intended and it spells out pain and sufferings for the smallest of the Hamato clan. Its pretty much being over stimulated to the max, like your skin feels too tight and you can hear your nerons firing in your brain type stuff, beware if you have overstimulation.

Someone to Protect by Koalagriton

2012. Mikey's big bothers get captured by Hun and Mikey doesn't take it well, that's going to become Huns problem.

Give up the bagel

Frankie Morales x reader

Fanfiction (all ages)

Masterlist

Summary: It's been rough as of late. The toaster is the last straw. Frankie comforts you.

Warnings: damage to toasters, angst, mentions of mental illness, mainly supportive fluff

Notes: I had a weird day today when I wrote this and I wanted a hug. I feel like Frankie gives good hugs. Reach out when you need help and check in with people close to you. I used prompt #18 from @sirowsky

It was fun. 🤗

“What happened to the toaster?”

You stood with a hammer, over the kitchen counter, crumbs on the floor and an unsuspecting toaster that had three dents in it. 

You were in your sleep shorts and tank. Nothing had gone right this week. The office was drowning in requests at work, you often came home late and couldn’t eat dinner with your husband who picked up your daughter from aftercare and put together the dinner that you weren’t home for. At night, you could only shower, kiss your little starlight as you tucked her in at least and became the big spoon to your sleepy husband’s little spoon. You were careful not to wake him up but you wanted to at least touch him beside your goodbye kiss in the morning. Just to hold him, feel his back, put your face in the crook of his neck. Take in his fresh scent, slightly musky since he showered before bed but all his.

Frankie scratched his head at the sight. He had seen you stressed before, but you both were similar in the regard, normally calm and composted but internally panicking. There are times when you didn’t make any sense to be sure, but eventually you worked out whatever issue you were having. Frankie was your biggest cheerleader thought it, he had learned that sometimes your problem solving would be ruled by emotions instead of logic. At times it worked and other times you found yourself to be self-loathing about your failings despite also telling Frankie that he was doing great when he knew he wasn’t. Your edges had been started to fray as of the last few months. The powers at be had seen your work and loved it so the put you in charge of your own team along with a pay increase. He was so proud of you but it now meant hours would be longer at times and you weren’t laughing as much when you came home. He knew before you went to bed, you were still making adjustments on starlight’s costume. She insisted that the family dress up like Super Mario characters, she had seen the movie and wanted to be Bowser so Frankie would be Mario and you Peach. Those spikes on Bowser were proving to be a challenge but this, how did the toaster fit into the picture? The pilot took a wider look at the kitchen, there were two pans, butter, eggs a bowl, some juice.

Ah…you were making breakfast. Maybe?

“The toaster and I had a disagreement about if the bagel should come out of it. I will have the bagel.” You stated, not in a joking manor. Frankie’s concern grew. This was not something he was familiar with, how can he fix this, is it even fixable? 

“Cariño, put down the hammer and come here.” He walked toward you as you slowly lowered the hammer but did not put it down. His arms wrapped around you and then you set it on the counter. Feeling his warm embrace calmed you down and your eyes watered, tears began to fall. Your shoulders shook with your sobs as Frankie held you, rubbing your back with his broad hands. “It’s okay. I’m right here. What happened before the toaster got on your bad side?” He asked. It was just like him to take you seriously with your madness, to treat you as if you were the most normal person when you often felt far from it. You looked up at him and shook your head. 

“I just wanted to make breakfast for the two of you. I feel like I haven’t seen either of you much and there’s still so much to be done. I shouldn’t have broken the toaster. That was stupid.” Barely above a whisper, you placed your forehead against his chest, listening to his heartbeat. When’s the last time you heard it? “I think I should tell them I want to go back to my old job. I had regular hours and I want to eat dinner that my husband makes for me with him.” Frankie ran his fingers through your hair.

“Are you sure? It’s only been a week. We’ll work it out. We always do, don’t we?” He kissed your forehead. You sniffle but smile. This man.

“You just want me to keep working so we can put more money in starlight’s college fund.” You joked, feeling a bit more like yourself. Frankie chuckled.

“You caught me. We gotta start early. She’ll be off before we know it, though can she stay six for a while longer?” Frankie started rocking you softly, soothing you further. Your smile grew, a few strands of your hair stuck to your cheek from the tears. “Te amo mi amor.”

“I love you to. Te amo Fransciso.”

[randomficrecss]

Hi!! Can you recommend some of your favourite sterek fics?

sorry it’s taken so long but yes absolutely!! one of my favorite ships to read about :) lmk if you’ve read all of these already

Sterek Fic Rec

first of all i would recommend reading anything by isthatbloodonhisshirt (wasterella)

We've Written Volumes (in Blood and Scars and Ink) by notthequiettype

E | 25.9k | 1/1 | hurt/comfort, injuries, sexual content

Stiles is on his back on hard-packed dirt. He's cold and there are leaves stuck to his neck and there's a four inch gash in his side that he thinks he can feel his ribs through. There's so much blood around him he feels like he's floating on a pond and everything is so much dimmer above him than it was a minute ago, which is saying something because he's in the dark center of the forest in the middle of the night. And the worst of it is that he's alone, totally alone with the smell of his own blood drowning him and the soft side of him run through by a tree.

As his eyes slip shut, the last thing he thinks is, "This is going to kill my dad."

Illuminated by ZainClaw

T | 5k | 1/1 | hurt/comfort, love confessions, first kiss, fluff

"Because I'm falling in love with you and it's scaring the hell out of me.”

Hallowed Grounds by damnfancyscotch

M | 109.5k | 16/16 | full shift werewolves, hurt stiles, slow burn, alive laura hale, magical stiles, BAMF stiles

Everything in Beacon Hills is the same when Stiles comes home from college.

Well, except for the fact that he's a published author now, Scott is halfway across the world with a travelling circus, Erica's epilepsy has been cured, her boss offers him a job too, and there's this weird black dog that seems to be following him around just to judge him.

Oh, and the murders, of course.

But other than that stuff... totally the same old BH.

Suspicious Minds by HaleHole (SweetFanfics)

E | 40.1k | 1/1 | wolf derek, single parent stiles, alive laura hale

“Don’t feed Balto your pizza,” Stiles mildly warns his daughter.

“Derek.”

Stiles pauses, mouth open and cheese sliding off the pizza as he parrots, “Derek? Who’s Derek?”

His daughter rolls her eyes, like Stiles has just asked her the dumbest question ever. “The wolf, Daddy!”

“You changed his name?” Stiles asks in surprise. Usually she’s pretty set about naming things. Her doll’s name was decided two seconds after receiving it, the car has been Alonzo for three years now, and the toaster ‘Pop’ for the last six months.

Meg nods, prodding the sliding cheese back on top of her slice. “Yeah. He told me his name is Derek. And that he doesn’t really like Balto.”

“Is that right?” he asks, eyeing the wolf who seems far too interested in watching a pair of animated moose arguing. It’s official. This wolf is weird. This whole situation is weird.

--

Separated from Laura after being cornered by some hunters, an injured Derek finds himself being rescued by Stiles and his young daughter. In more than one way.

After The Storm by matildajones

M | 41.3k | 4/4 | kid fic, werewolf reveal, slow build, police officer stiles, hurt/comfort

Derek's mind flits to Stiles’ face. It’s a hard face to forget and for some reason Stiles is one of the only things Derek can think about without feeling like he’s lost something.

Erica grins. “When are you going to see him next?”

“He’s a cop,” Derek says gruffly.

“So?”

Derek remembers being at the station, he remembers all those fucking people who thought he had killed his own sister. Laura. He hates all of them, and says as much aloud.

Erica hums. “Sounded like you didn’t hate him.”

--

Dealing with the death of his sister, Derek spends most of his time helping out his family. He meets Stiles and as soon as Derek's willing to admit his attraction towards him, he discovers that Stiles is dealing with his own problems at work. He needs help - help that Derek's all too willing to give. There's something about Derek with his strange, glowing eyes and quick ability to heal that makes Stiles trust him when maybe he shouldn't.

welcome to the twenty-seventh fic rec friday! where, on friday, i rec five of my favourite fics.  

1. Toaster by @admiralcanthackett

Lance cannot for the life of him think of the word in English. ~ Hunk is used to it, Keith is not and realizes Lance is more capable than he first thought.

polyglot lance loml. there was a point in time when admiralcanthackett (once thenakednymph) when pumped out more voltron fics than i did, and fae were fucking AWESOME at it. i was hooked on faer every word. im pretty sure i bookmarked almost every fic fae wrote!! this one is sweet because its very team as family, and lance appreciative. 

2. Raindrops on roses by @zipadeea

"Lance, you can't just add 'space' to everything, just because we're in, well, space." "Oh c'mon, it works, though! Spaceship, Space Mall, Space Dad-," "What?" "Shiro is our Space Dad, Keith. Obviously. Sheesh, I thought you were smart."

The paladins call Shiro Space Dad. Shiro knows this. Here's four times they say it out loud, and the one time Shiro's finally okay with it.

yall remember how popular baby lance was?? like him getting deaged by a monster ray or whatever?? well i do. there used to be this comic that floated around about it too and it was fucking adorabale. well this one is so fucking cute it makes you yell a little!! the fic is actually focused on shir as a space dad, and his relationships with the paladins, and you can really see this young adult growing into himself via the love he has for the people on his team. i fuckn love this fic

3. Video Chats by @tomminowrites

Not long after leaving to join the Blades, Keith stops by the castleship to catch up with Voltron.The visit was going normally, until the Red paladin lets slip that he's been video calling one of the paladins fairly regularly - unknown to rest of the team.

poor fucking lance 💀 he gets HUMILIATED in this one. his whipped ass gets absolutely dunked on and deservedly so. i literally love them

4. where & how we’ll land by xintong

The first time Keith meets Lance is also the first time they kiss. It all goes downhill for him from there.

i love this one (childhood friends to lovers always Gets to me) but the first meeting has me in tears bc lance’s first appearance was basically just this: 

and that is his character. so it was perfect

5. Something Made, Something Given by @ardett

Shiro notices the bandages on Lance’s fingers.

seamstress lance seamstress lance seamstress lance seamstress lance seamstress lance seamstress lance seamstress la -- im going insane but i really do love tailor lance its so important to me. that and shiro & lance fics are always superior

that’s it for today!! i’ll see y’all back next friday for the next fic rec post!!!

Hello, dear mods. Can’t wait to hoard even more fic recs from your new blog. ✨

I’m primarily a Reddie shipper, though I’d love winter/holiday reading recs for platonic Losers or other ships. In return, I’d like to offer recs for these fun Reddie holiday fics.

howdy!! thank you so very much for these!

i know you are sorting through xenofic recs but i definitely would add the tales from dimwood forest series ("poppy" and it's following releases, also my personal favorite xenofics ever tbh) and the animals of farthing wood (also has a tv series adaptation). "a dog's life" is also another really good xenofic novel and the creator is lgbt+ (yipee).

also a casual question, would you consider object fiction to be xenofictiob? like would the "brave little toaster" count as xenofic to this master list?

I FORGOT TO ADD ANIMALS OF FARTHING WOOD THANK YOU!!! I'll add all these.

I'd say yes as well! Xenofiction is just a non-human POV so it think it would count lol I put PMD and MLP on there anyways. I'll add it too seeing as yeah, not a human so therefore fits the genre lol

[lemon-wedges]

Do you have any fic recs for any fandoms you’re currently obsessed with?

Hmmmm well the three main fandoms I kinda rotate thru currently are The Great Ace Attorney(brry), Metal Gear(otasune), and Dungeon Meshi (labru)

I put it under cut cause I kept getting side tracking talking lol

I can start with labru but I actually haven't read that many fanfic? Mostly cause when I first looked up the tags I was suprised there wasn't much fic at all. But also not suprised cause the anime hadn't even revealed kabrus 1 secret (and the anime wouldn't even touch his 2nd secret this last season 🥲) so I thought I'd just wait till fics start accumulating before diving back in (if anything I need recs lol)

Accurate Models of course. Its the first fic recc's to me and it even inspired some fanart lol modern au. Kabru becomes obessed with the youtuber that does monster dildo reviews

Let's see for otasune....well I'll warn u. Mgs is probably the least friendly diving in blind given that that the lore is just Insane. But also like some in game info reveals are just so so special....it flavors the lore....

Half Way Hungry which I thought was real cute. Post series. Laios finds out Kabru has feelings for him and starts?? Writing in a journal studying him like one of his monsters?????

Aaandddd

Currently waiting for Games People Play and Empyrean, From the Summit to update (cursed laios who needs to get married or else he DIES and painter who takes interest in kabru...)

Anyways.

Hello World series. A Lot of pre-slash build up. They grow together, they trust each other, they love each other and oouuuggggg

to me otasune really is about 2 dudes surrounded by insane people and situations find each other and??? Proceeding to have a normal, stable loving relationship....and I cry cause canonly they just stay together forever buhuhuh....sorry I got caught in my feelings where was I

And then Baroryuu. Which....probably has the least amount of fics between all these ships but the one I want to just dump onto u lol

Anything by bosstoaster honestly. In Other Words for something silly. Moving Forward Using All My Breath for developing relationships in snapshots. And fuck it Feel This Static for abo porn ahaha AND THEIR BEAUTY AND THE BEAST AU

(What can I say. Toaster never misses)

(Also I think any other recs after this might be just porny feeling one shots.....)

Theophany . THEEE FIC FOR BAROK BEING WEIRDLY RELIGIOUS ABOUT RYUu and ryuu being like.....cool 👍

Shizi also one of my favs. IT'S so sweet and moody and bite sized, established brry pretending they're newly weds hehehehe

Judicial Assistant Barok Van Zieks. Barok visiting ryuu in japan decides to help ryuu with his confidence by becoming his assistant

Chaper and Verse is one currently ongoing. It's baroryuu book club!!! (With ryuu torturing Barok with his book choices )

The Fanged and the faithful. WEREWOLF AU WEREWOLF AU WEREWOLF AU.

With Claret Conviction which is also ongoing (and im definatly biased because it's the exact phantom au spin on them I've been wanting)

Grinding my teeth cause I want to add more but also maybe this is getting too long so I'll just....leave it there OTL

Anyways I hope u find something nice to read in any of this :D
