WIP Wednesdays

Bit of a fic where the Team ZITS poly helps Scott heal after Limited Life

This is the 'bar scene' so some warnings:

There is drinking, heavily implied bad self talk, and implied suggestive themes.

I think that's all. WIP under the break!

Impulse isn't worried when he and Skizz walk into the bar and notice Scott in the corner at the counter. No he isn't worried. He's concerned. He's concerned because he knows he hasn't been on empires.

So when Impulse and Skizz find a booth for the team ZITS poly they don't choose it because they have eye line on Scott.

No, that would be ridiculous, it's just the only one big enough for them all.

Skizz looks up at Impulse and nudges him with his foot.

"Dop, do you think we should be worried? Should we go say hi?"

Impulse looks at him and shakes his head. "No, I mean we're both concerned obviously. But saying hi, I don't think that's a good idea. He looks…" he trails off trying to find the right word.

"Like he doesn't want to be recognized." Skizz says with finality.

Impulse nods. "If we think he's need us one of us will step in otherwise we leave him be."

"Yeah he's a grown boy, but that doesn't mean we're gonna leave him out to dry!" Skizz says smiling as the two men relax having decided on a plan.

Yeah, Impulse isn't worried. Concerned, well he's always concerned about his friends. Impulse nods and smiles at his boyfriend as he starts exaggerating a story.

Oh, void, no.

Why does it have to be them?

Scott, in all of his sober (drunk) wisdom thought he would look around to see if he could catch anyone's attention. Instead all he sees is Impulse and Skizz up at the bar ordering drinks, most likely for the Team ZITS polycule. Who are currently getting themselves situated in a booth.

Great.

It's fine though, in Scotts opinion. He just has to find a suitable guy to flirt with.

Scott sighs to himself and goes to get another drink only to find his glass empty. He raises a smile and orders another. He chooses to ignore the look the bartender gives him.

Scott chooses to ignore the eyes on him that are paired with two of the Team ZITS poly.

Scotts fine. He just hasn't found someone to flirt with yet. Yeah that's it.

Scott chooses to ignore all of the small venomous voices mentally berating him.

It's not like he hasn't told himself those things before…

Yeah, Scott's fine. He'll promise it to everyone.

He just leaves out he's only fine because he has to be.

Hermitcraft / Life Series Fic Recs

Because I love so many of them...

I'll split the fics into completed and updating fics, and try to only recommend currently updating fics (i.e., not abandoned). I'm going to write a little about why I like each fic and what the general vibes are - so this is also a kind of review I guess?

I've tried to @ the authors if they have a public tumblr. Sorry to anyone who didn't want to be tagged, I can remove any @ if you ask (or if I have embarrassingly tagged the wrong person). Anyway, enjoy, and I appreciate reblogs because I want as many people to see these fics as possible!!

This ended up being incredibly long so I'm putting a divider here. Click to keep reading!!! Also, fair warning: shipping ahead! Some fics will have mild sexual content, please read the tags if you are unsure <3

Updating Fics

I have already recommended Help Me To Breathe, lost in the dark (he's got a heavy heart), and There Are Monsters Nearby in this post, so I won't explain why I like them a second time, but definitely check them out!!

Death's A Good Gig by @mawofthemagnetar is probably going to be finished by the time this post gets to you, reader, but I'm putting it here anyway. It's short and sweet, one of my favourite representations of Zedaph (or, Zedeath) I've read, and just a joy to experience. If you like grim reapers and discussions of unions, this one is for you. Also I need more Zedaph in my life.

Look, I'm Sorry, Please Stop Scaring Everyone by @cat-in-the-desert reminds me a lot of a particular TV drama I liked when I was younger, which followed a similar premise. This fic follows Mumbo (vampire) and Grian (ghost) as they get up to various housemate shenanigans and meet their local magic-expert and salesman Scar. This fic is fun, but still includes a nice amount of Feelings and hinted-at Angst which I really love. It's lighthearted, but never boring.

It Hurts To Hope by Inquillitory is my favourite of the "Grian crash lands into Hermitcraft and causes problems for everyone" genre. Seeing how many fics there are with that premise, I think that says a lot. It handles Grian's weird Watcher stuff really well. Honestly, I just want to know what happens next!

killing the boy in the tv by @raspberrystruck is like a sickfic on steroids. If you want Grian with so much past trauma he forgets how to function in society, this is basically the fic for you. I really love how hybrid traits affect the characters' interactions in this fic, and how everyone is kind of messed up because of the imbalance Grian brings. It is wonderfully descriptive in all the right places!

Love Me Like I'm Dead by @daniofcrows is such a gem. You know how hard it is to find good Xisuma whump? It's impossible. I absolutely love how Xisuma and Evil X are characterised in this, and I am obsessed with the unique take on hanahaki disease which I have never seen handled in this way before. The balance between flashbacks and present day is maintained wonderfully and I cannot wait to continue reading this one. Wow.

Oh, you wanted me to do a verse? by @bugbbear is... kind of indescribable. It's horror. It's comedy. It's the apocalypse. It's boatem. Scar eats someone. One of the most interesting and unique apocalypse stories I have read. Slowly updating but worth the wait, in my opinion. This one NEEDS more attention.

So Much For Stardust by @a-plethora-of-peters is basically one of my all-time favourites. Which is a damn good achievement seeing as I don't usually read ZITS fics. Like, ever. In this fic, Skizz is a human abducted and hurt badly by aliens, now recovering in the care of good aliens who don't know how 'sentient' he is. Every update of this one makes me smile, it is wonderful. I love how the characters are written and how the different perspectives are shown. It is just great.

Solar Waltz by @raspberrystruck and aroundtheclock is a brilliant and very very sad regression fic. I love fluffy regression fics as much as the next guy, but this one just... hits different. The hurt/comfort levels are off the charts. Grian is so damn cute the whole time, while also being harrowingly complicated and sad. I am so ready for whatever comes next.

Tango's Castle of Cards by @evilrat-sabre is the one where Tango is a BUG. He's just a little guy (horror). This one is so beautifully written, with poetry-type interludes and perspective changes that really make everything feel so much more impactful. Finding out your buddy is a murder bug isn't the easiest thing in the world. I love this so much.

Traveling Thieves {Dark Fantasy AU} (series) by @amethystfairy1 is basically one of the series of all time. I know I keep saying that but it really really is. I love a good fantasy au, and I love an au with hybrids even more. In this world, hybrids are treated like slaves, but it isn't all doom and gloom for the main characters of each installment. There is a lot of hurt/comfort and the different stories feed into each other in really interesting ways. I try to read as much as I can, though I've missed a few because my emails are buggy. Definitely worth reading these fics, especially since now they're all starting to come together!

Completed Fics

Solving Counting Sheep by @theminecraftbee might have rearranged my brain chemistry a little. Another strong contender for 'fics that inspire me to kill Grian', this time with a more concrete notion of "replacement". Three is my favourite fucked up living weapon. It's so rare to find Evo fics in this day and age, too. This fic had me immediately clicking on every update as soon as I got the emails.

Rescue Fire by @imaginethat0327 is one of the most unique takes on a fictionalised life series game that I have ever read. The whole concept is explained in a realistic and easy-to-follow way, as we learn what's happening with the characters. There are several brilliant storylines happening in this one, but my particular favourites are Jimmy & Tango, Joel, and of course Scar & Grian. This fic is full of whump and, well, read the tags, it isn't always pleasant, but those are my favourite things ever. Definitely worth checking out this fic and its currently updating sequel.

don't you know about me? by takenbadgering is a wonderful comedy of errors with just the right amount of angst for a realistic setting type of fic. If you enjoy polyamory miscommunications, rave aesthetics, kandi, school teacher dynamics, and a lovely blend between grumbo, cubscar, and mumscar, this is the one.

Eventually the Birds Must Land by @milo-hypno follows a polyam ship I would have never thought of, and I cannot believe how much I loved it. This married-as-friends fic premise is wonderful, and captures the main trio (Grian, Mumbo, Impulse)'s personalities so well, while balancing them with the incredibly terrifying descriptions of the Watchers and their power. There's a lot of angst here, but it is ultimately hurt/comfort to the maximum degree. I loved reading it as it updated. Yay for gay marriage!

From The Archives (series) by @sixteenth-days was the absolute inspiration for my own Comms AU, and I will never forget its influence on me. As someone basically unfamiliar with TMA, I thought this series might be hard to follow, but it was not! I read all 57 parts in the span of two days, and I think it altered my brain chemistry. Please read it, even if (especially if) you don't know anything about TMA. The Cleo and Grian storyline lives in my head rent free. I mean it. This is horror at its finest. Also there's an audio series of this fic being released rn, which is very cool.

SUPERCRITICAL by @masque-of-plague hits different. It is such a wonderful take on the superhero/HotGuy trope, and it gets so super dark at some points! This one really takes swings at it's fictional government, which of course I love, while at the same time building this brilliantly emotional relationship between Scar and Grian. I do enjoy a bit of enemies to lovers, but the actual plot mixed into the story makes this one extra special. It is thrilling, with action that I don't get to see too often! Great work.

I am weary with contending! is one of the mumscarian fics of all time. From 'this house has people in it'-type horror, to magic gone wrong, to childhood trauma, to attempted assassination, to gender fuckery, this fic has it all. Usually I don't go for convex siblings, but this one is good enough to get a pass from me. Amazingly detailed worldbuilding alongside a brilliantly creative story.

It Spreads by @foxxology may not count as a fic, actually. It's a comic. But it's posted on ao3 so it counts. I was obsessed with this one as it was updating, honestly. It rocked me to my core. The art is phenomenal. The writing is brilliant. I love sculk.

Luck of the sea by Sleepy_Duck is a lovely take on mermaid and human interactions, with Grian as a marine life conservator and Scar as a very neglected mer. This one takes us emotionally in all sorts of directions, and offers lots of hope for the future of the characters. I heavily enjoyed this fic - if you like mermaids and marine biology, check it out.

there are many downsides to being a marine biologist by donnerstag is another mermaid fic but with a pretty different vibe. First of all, it follows what I would consider a rarepair Doc/Martyn. Second of all, reading this as it updated was a thrilling experience that nearly made me cry at certain points. I love how the relationship builds in this fic. It is honestly amazing. The whole idea of experimenting on a sentient sea creature, learning that he can communicate, then losing funding and having to save him from being dissected?!?! It's crazy. I love it.

Thus concludes my fic recommendations. I hope you enjoy at least some of these, and consider reblogging to spread these wonderful fics around <3

Hiya :) Eli here!  I have a few rules, so here’s what I’ve got.

Things that aren’t going to change

- I write with gender neutral pronouns (they/them).

- Don’t send me things about content creators that are offensive and likely harmful. I have had a few of these in the past and I beg you not to.

- Don’t say (or ask me to say) anything rude directed at any content creator, blogger, etc..

- Inbox and DMs are always open

- I will not tolerate any discriminative behaviour in my inbox, DMs, replies, reblogs, etc. The internet should be a kind and welcoming place where everyone is equal.

DOs

- Suggestive/innuendos (if you want)

- x readers

- Kinds of stories: Headcanons, full stories, drabbles, multi-part stories (e.g. asking for a sequel/prequel/follow-up)

- I will, on occasion, ship. Anything ship related will be tagged with: “[fandom]shipping” “shipping” “[ship name]”

- Request a Hermit, Traffic Series member (I may turn down DL requests depending on if I can work around the soulmate issue), EVO member, etc..

- I’m also a Tolkien, X-Files , Pokemon, and DC nerd, so if you want to talk about those or request someone, hit me up :D For Tolkien fics, just specify if you want it to be based off the book character or an adaption (e.g. book Elrond, film Elrond, or RoP Elrond)

- You can swear as long as it isn’t offensive or a slur

-  I can write angst, yandere, poly, fluff, platonic, family dynamic stories.

- Be specific!

DON’Ts

- I will not write minors.

- NSFW stories. NSFW blogs, please be an anon if you want to talk/put in a request

- I will not write adult x minor or power imbalances (e.g. teacher-student)

- I will not write for real people, only the characters they portray

━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━

REQUESTS ARE OPEN.

I’m slow, but they are open :D

━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━◦○◦━

In terms of Minecraft

At the moment I write for all Hermits. However, there are some I write better for than others. How much Hermitcraft I write and post will depend on my mental state (see tags for more info).

I write best for (but don’t let that stop you from requesting otherwise!):

Serious Tags: graphic injury, temporary disability

Words: 32,120 Chapters: 1/1 (Finished)

Summary:

Ren, Lunar King, protector of the forest, has no idea what to do when he finds a human injured in his territory. He's even more lost to learn that the human is a monster hunter- and it's only Bdubs being under a curse keeping him from realizing Ren is a werewolf. As Bdubs recovers from his injuries and as they get closer, Ren doesn't know what to do- live in bliss together, despite the curse? Or summon his arranged fiancé, the Demon Prince Etho, to help break it?

Notes: This is a wholesome romance with a little angst. The entire story is from Ren's pov. They actually talk things out, things aren't left implied. 10/10 recommend

Summary:

Doc would never have considered himself a relatively profound friend of Ren’s. They were friends, for certain, but in the same way Doc would consider himself a friend of Joe’s or a friend of Scar’s. They interact. They spend time together. They sometimes collaborate on builds.

And, on occasion, Doc supposes that friendship extends to pulling the man from lava and attempting to salvage what bits of him have been destroyed and mangled from a near disastrous end of a season.

But, really, he should know the man better. He should have some sense of who Ren is, of what he needs, what he does, yet the man sat before him… He’s not certain it’s Ren at all.

And Doc doesn’t know enough to explain why…

--

Also known as: Ren has DID, Doc has no clue, and they're both stuck on a ship together for two months

Notes: This story is mostly from Doc's pov, but we see other pov's as well. This is a very good story showing how people process things and learn to work together. The screen door is such an amazing metaphor, 10/10 recommend.

Summary:

proverb - A person who wanders or travels often and at length will not be burdened by attachments such as friends, family, or possessions.

Bdubs has done well for himself, thank you very much! He's got a ship, he's got business, he's got friends! A man needs nothing more in the grand universe.

It's hard being a human in the great beyond; a new species to the intergalactic community means poachers, a black market, and an everpresent danger.

The solution? Simple! Don't be a human.

Obviously, it's not going to be as easy as that. Not when he finds himself joining the crew of the Hermit Craft, not when he learns he's not quite alone.

Notes: A classic, very popular story, but one I will always recommend. It is long and very detailed, you feel like you're walking beside the characters as it goes one. Bdubs pov, and I highly recommend reading at least once but this is an amazing reread too. 10/10

Summary:

According to Council records, the Fulgur Ovium Zedaph Pleighs and his two co-workers - the Ignis Petra Tango of the Tek Clan and the Inferni ImpulseSV - are officially called Sapience Outreach Specialists. They jokingly refer to themselves though as the First Contact Crew. It’s up to them to determine the sentience and sapience of alien races that either volunteer or are brought to them by the Council.

And recently the Council has brought them one hell of a challenge: determine the sentience and sapience of a recently discovered species called Terrans using an individual that they nickname Blue.

Meanwhile Skizz just wants to be treated like a person by the aliens that abducted him and go back to Earth…

Notes: An amazing story that is currently still being written. Very heavy material mentally and tag-wise, but slowly gets better and lighter just like Skizz. 10/10

Summary:

He was enjoying the crackling sound the fire was making. It had started getting dark quite a bit ago. A man who looked a little older than himself took place in the chair next to him, as entranced by the fire as he was. But Jimmy’s focus wasn’t on the fire anymore, no, it was the scraggly stubble on the man’s chin, his gelled-back bleach-blond hair, golden piercing at the top of his ear and seemingly red eyes as he stared into the fire. He was handsome. Jimmy focused back on the fire, trying to scootch a little closer to him, subtle as can be. As can be. Which is absolutely not. His foldable chair decided that that would be the perfect moment to start an absolute ruckus, creaking and shifting as much as humanly possible.

AKA Jimmy learns that ice skating isn't easy! Luckily Tango is here to help.

Notes: This is such a lovely story, written beautifully and with such care. 10/10 a beautiful story even still being written.

After staying in season nine for almost two years, 1.20 finally releases and the hermits quickly move into season ten in the new update.

Maybe they should have waited.

Maybe they never would have been given the choice.

Notes: If the description of body horror is too much, you can skip chapters 8-16. (Both chapters 8 and 16 are both mild comparatively, but included just in case). This edition is a re-edit of an older story by the same name that I have also written. The older version is also up to read here.

Notes: Jumps between Grian and Scar's pov. One of my older works, but still makes both me and others cry. Thinking about re-editing like with As Un-Human As We Are.

you know what I haven’t seen going around in a while, and could use some of myself? fic recs! so, consider this both a rec and a self-promo post: recommend some fics to me in the reblogs and I’ll reblog your recs! in general, try to include both a summary and why you’re reccing it (whether it’s a self-promo or someone else’s), and let’s get some eyes on fics!

[omgitsbeewave]

sometimes i'm just guessing what tags people watch when they like two or more of my arts in the row

rn i think the guy was just like oh zedaph, i like zedaph i want some arts with him and then he sees my zedlidarity arts and... what people could think when they see the ship of two sillies who don't even know about each other.....

[hmshermitcraft]

Vex hybrids(Cub and Scar) are probably one of the rarer cryptids out there, probably a lot rarer than bigfoot and mermaids. They're also more likely to be little bastards running around pranking anyone they see fit. What's surprising is Doc, Jevin, False, Mumbo, Grian, Joe, Bdubs, and Zed all experienced that mischief and decided they were into it.

Cub and Scar get a ton of media attention after one of their many partners shares a photo of them napping in a pile. With their wings out. Oh well, at least they don’t have to hide anymore.

[sysig]

They’re all yellow somehow

[thelazuliwitch]

I agree with everything OP said. And to continue their rant: I will admit I am new to this fandom space. Though and avid watcher of Hermitcraft since season 6 and life since 3rd life, I have never been in the fandom spaces until now. Which means I am learning quite a bit. And I was horrified to see the hate Grian (who mind you gave us this series, so remember that) and also Scar (who is one of my favorite POV's to watch and puts so much effort like the rest of them to give us content). I love watching many of the POVs, several, but yes there are people in HC and Life whom I don't, and you know what I say to them, *NOTHING*. Because they are real people at the end of the day. Real people who are working their asses off to give us amazing content for their intended auidences. But I came to tumblr because I wanted to see the art, see the chit-chat, the theories, the WILD LIFE Bingo cards. I did not sign up to see hate on some of my favorite creators, hate that has built up so profoundly two friends fear they can't team up anymore. But I ignore the bashing if I can and I move on, even if it saddens me. But Grian and Scar are content creators, they CAN'T ignore the hate and I don't think they can avoid taking it personally eitherr, after all they are human and real people. Charles and Ryan live behind the monitor and have to make the choices on what will get watched so they can make a living--- and yes I use their names because I want to drive in that they are in fact people with feelings. I think we need to remember that, because if your spreading hate, you are hurting the creators first. With minecraft smps the line between fiction is blurry, (and I'm not talking about shipping here, do what you want, and I don't know the lifers or the hermits to tell you their boundaries), so it's easy to forget that yes they are playing characters, but they also aren't, and the stuff they get hate for is often directed to the human beings. So here's a life tip: If you'r not liking their videos? Stop watching them. And stop hating on the fanartists, the animators, the people who do watch them--- filter the tags if you SO don't want to see them. Remember that Scar and Grian, especially Grian has a young adience so you the chances of you bullying a child are fairly large. And like OP said, it's not the fandom's job to appease anything, just themselves because fandom is hobby, it's fun, it's not a moral obligation. People are gonna do what they want, and people are gonna have fun, and if they aren't doing what you like, don't make miserable for both of you by hating on them, avoid it, move on, and find something else. You might even have more fun.

I do have one question for OP, what did Tango, Zedaph, and BigB say??? I'm so confused.

One big problem with Scar's recent tweet (the one stating him and Grian have to avoid each other due to lots of negative feedback) is the sort of unawareness on this website. Yes, CCs certainly don't step foot here nearly as much as other websites, but acting like it's solely a YouTube and Reddit problem is driving me insane.

For the past year most of Trafficblr has been nothing but negativity and complaining towards folks that post Scar and Grian together, complaining that they're overrated and that they're sick of seeing them together. Almost all of the "hot takes" and "discourse" that people post are just whining about how annoying and popular Grian is, and how everything is desert duo, and how they want to see other things.

And I've pointed that out. Several times! Few people listened! Mcytblr confessions is almost entirely negativity, I see rancid takes about Grian alone (not even MENTIONING desert duo or scarian) on a damn near daily basis. I've gotten hate asks saying things along the lines of "of course you post about Grian and Scar" and "I followed you for Joel, not scar". Popular fan artists and bloggers hopping on the hate train, bullying popular fanon concepts and canon concepts, saying they hate the angst, or that it's overrated, or that there's too much shipping and they don't like it anymore. People that like other MCYTers like Zedaph, or Big B, or Tango, or anyone and everyone under the sun all blamed Grian and desert duo for their lack of content and accused Grian fans of not putting enough effort into fandom. Effort! Into fandom! Like it's a requirement and not a hobby you do for fun!

And those exact same people are shocked right now. I'm going to pull you all close when I say this: fandom is supposed to be fun. It is not a job. Nobody is required to like certain things, and that applies to your dislike of Grian and Scar together, true... But the wave of hate the past year or so has been ridiculous. If someone only watches Grian or Scar, that's fine. They don't have to watch anyone else. If they only post about desert duo or scarian it doesn't make them shallow or basic.

If you are genuinely upset by this, please, I beg of you: take a break from fandom. There have always been more popular characters and pairings in fandom. That is a fact of life. If you are genuinely, seething, furiously upset about all the Grian and Scar, or anything in fandom, take a break. You have to remember that the CCs don't have to do this, and they are friends and people too, and the negativity you have towards your fandom make them think you hate it. While it's true the bottom of the barrel dwell in YouTube comments and on Reddit, I see a lot of negativity on Twitter and Tumblr.

Frankly, I'm pissed. And grateful we even have a life series anymore, with all the negative feedback they get on every little aspect of the life series. Let friends be friends, for fuck's sake. And if you feel you MUST post negatively about anything in the life series or group, I suggest you make like the DSMP fandom and add CC! or C! indicators. Someone on Twitter bemoaned they weren't complaining about "fanon scarian, not canon scarian" which I think is a roundabout way of denying they're two separate things. But I digress as that's not what this post is about. The point is is that those same people that were so eager to complain about Scar and Grian being overrated are awfully, awfully quiet now. For shame, do better, and have fun. It's Minecraft YouTube, not a job.

TL;DR: Traffic Twitter and Trafficblr both have problems with hating on Scar and Grian disproportionately and now that it's rearing it's ugly head, they blame YouTube and Reddit to absolve themselves of responsibility. Fandom is supposed to be fun!

[not-so-anonymous-scotch]

pin!

hi. i am Anonymous_Scotch on ao3 and @single-malt-scotch on tumblr. just made a blog to seperate things mainly bc i kept this a kinda secret, may cross post some fics but thats kind of it! feel free to send fic specific questions here.

~~~

i mostly write hermitcraft, mindcrack, (third) life smp. i really don't watch that many people so it mostly stick to what i know (i came from mindcrack so, mostly them). i have no plans to expand to other mcyt people outside of those mentioned but i have written for these fandoms in the past under different name(s).

in regards to that as well, i am pretty picky on how i write this kinda thing. i dont indulge in any headcanons or theories other than my own and i dont really ship (in a traditional way ig). usually i imply that the world is a 'game' being played, but never actually write outside of the game (irl). i have a lot of my own "rules" for how it can work so, you can probably add it all up to get ideas on how my universe idea functions.

you can send requests or suggestions, but keep reading below to know what people i may or may not write!

what i LOVE writing:

mindcrack! old smp stuff!! in general

death games, uhc, life series... the tension is fun

topics or feelings i can explore and explain in weird ways

pairs/teams i enjoy most: ethubs, keralis & bdubs, keralis & xb, nebtho, single malt scotch, team canada, DOOKE, bookurt

definitely can write:

most of mindcrack. but for hc setting...

bdubs

etho

tentative yes to writing (i know them and watch them, but havent written then a ton so):

grian

scar

keralis

tango

doc

zedaph

Xb

cleo

joe hills

maybe's: (depends. probably wont write them as the main character though)

anyone not in the yes lists. honestly theres just a lot of ppl i dont watch and dont think about hard-- it may change in the future who i Could be willing to write so dont be afraid to ask

subjects??

can write angsty things, hurt/comfort (may not define it the way some of yall do...), a little fluff perhaps- but i do like to be funny and complicated. i dont like super fluffy gooey cutesy stuff either, my 'fluff' just means i dont get super deep. sometimes i lean on humor, sometimes i dont... depends on the vibes. i like to get philosophical and meta at times too.

in terms of "ships" i dont really consider myself a shipper despite using some of those tags ... its mostly done for exposure purposes- you will likely see most of what i write between pairs is either vague, non-romantic, or just suggestive. i like to play into the humorous flirting they actually do, the suggestive jokes, or whatever else. i like to bring up ships in a joking manner (ex. situations that ppl jokingly interpret as suggestive when its not, playful comments about being a 'couple' etc). so when i normally write, its not on my mind in a typical way? but it can be suggestive enough i may tag it as such. i will take some requests along those lines, but i wont write pairs im not familiar with.

i may answer requests in drabbles. if i like it a lot, a full fic. i may answer the asks themselves, or i may not- it depends on how closely i feel i followed a suggestion!

[theres-an-impulstor-among-us]

I have a writing request, but I don’t know if it exactly fits the criteria. Let’s do this!

Hacker!Zed, Scar, Airship-

I know you love your Among Us hermits, sooo.. yeh.

RAVEN!!! my best requester!!! omg i missed your requests, welcome back!!!

Requests are still open! Please read pinned post before requesting.

…

  Zedaph is delighted that a new map is available to play in. An airship, with new tasks, new weapons, and new mechanics. He can’t wait to explore it from top to bottom with his friends. 

  But simply exploring will have to wait, because he’s immediately assigned to be the imposter, along with Etho, to his delight. 

  He starts out in the engine room and follows Scar down into the armoury. “Hey, Scar. Mind if I tag along with you this round?”

  “Only if you’re not the imposter,” replies Scar with a grin. “Are you?”

  “‘Course not. Are YOU?”

  “Nope!”

  Zedaph laughs. “Glad we got that sorted out. What task have you got down here?”

  “I have no idea,” Scar says. “I’m not familiar with this map at all.”

  “That’s cuz it’s brand new, dude. What does it say on your task sheet?”

  “Uh…” Scar studies it intently. “Put away rifles, it says.”

  “Ah, gotcha!” Zedaph smiles. “I’ve got the download.”

  He stands at the download panel and pretends to work, glancing over his shoulder at Scar, who’s trying to figure out the rifles task. 

  But just as he’s “finishing” his task, a body is reported and everyone’s teleported to the meeting table.

  Zedaph blinks. He was so wrapped up in sticking with Scar that he forgot he’s meant to be killing people. Etho seems to have done well on his own so far.

  “Hey, everybody,” says Etho, who has the megaphone. “I found Skizzle dead in the vault place. I think it’s the top left of the map.”

  “What was your pathing, Etho?” Impulse inquires. 

  “I went up to the meeting room to do my card thing first, and I only saw Bdubs and Grian on my way there. Then I went to the vault and found Skizzle dead. The only person I saw around the area was Tango going down towards the engine room.”

  “Wait, that’s all you did?” demands Grian. “That was a fairly long round.”

  “This is a new ship, Grian,” Etho responds steadily. “I was looking at my map a lot to find my tasks.”

  “Yeah, I was doing that too,” Zedaph adds, knowing he has to help back up his imposter buddy.

  Impulse, Tango, and Ren all add their agreement, to Zedaph’s relief. 

  Grian hesitates, but he’s clearly forced to accept this explanation. “Okay, fair enough. Can anyone clear anyone?”

  “It is 100% not Zedaph,” Scar says immediately. “He and I were in the weapons room doing tasks the whole time.”

  “The armory,” Zedaph clarifies. “We were there together, I can confirm.”

  The rest of the meeting is uneventful and nobody gets voted off. Zedaph decides to start again in records, and to his surprise, Scar appears beside him. “Oh, hey, Zedaph! You got a records task?”

  Zeadph checks his list of fake tasks. “Ah, actually, I don’t. I have a couple of things in the cargo bay.”

  He realises just as he says it that one of the options to appear in after the meeting WAS the cargo bay. 

  Thankfully, Scar doesn’t seem to put two and two together. “Oh, can you watch me do my task in here? I don’t trust anyone else.” 

  “Sure thing.”

  As Scar focuses on his task, Zedaph spots Ren going by and follows him into the shower area, stabbing him to death quietly just out of sight and returning in time for Scar to turn and find him still standing there. 

  “Thanks. You wanna go do your tasks in security?”

  “It’s the cargo bay,” chuckles Zedaph. “But sure, if you wanna come with me.”

  “Oh, wait, I have a task in the vault,” Scar says, looking at his list. “That’s all the way back there, isn’t it?”

  “Yeah, but let’s go back there first. I don’t want you to get voted off for not doing your tasks, like you often do.”

  Scar beams. “Oh, thanks, buddy! ‘Ppreciate that.” 

  Zedaph lags behind for only a second to kill Bdubs just as he approaches them. It’s a serious risk, almost suicidal, but Scar is so wrapped up in his work that he doesn’t look behind him and the two enter the gap room. 

  Scar groans. “Aww, the platform thingy is on the other side. We’re gonna have to go all the way around.”

  As Scar turns away, Zedaph quickly activates his hacker screen and alters the game’s code. “Oh, Scar, wait. It’s coming back.”

  Scar turns back as the platform starts to move back towards them. “Oh! I didn’t even know that was a thing.”

  “Maybe it’s on a timer,” Zedaph suggests. 

  The two hop onto the platform and wait for it to slide back to the other side.

  However, as they do, a meeting is called. 

  “Oh geez,” gasps Impulse, seeing that only five people are left. “Oh my gosh.”

  “Okay, we HAVE to vote somebody, here,” Etho states. “Has anyone got anything?”

  Seeing the opportunity, Zedaph makes a risky decision. 

  “Guys, I saw Scar come out of the vent,” he says quickly. 

  Scar turns to look at him in shock. “Wait, what?!”

  “I’ve been with him the entire round but I left him alone for a second while I did a task and when I looked back, I saw him popping back out of a vent. We were in the cargo bay so he must have vented to kill someone and tried to come back but I caught him.”

  “No, no, no!” Scar shakes his head furiously. “Zedaph, we were together the whole time and I didn’t do anything!”

  “Is Scar capable of a big brain move like venting and coming back while someone’s doing a task, though?” Grian asks dubiously. 

  “I’d believe he’s capable of attempting and mistiming it,” responds Etho, clearly catching on. “Tango, you know Zedaph the best; would he lie about something like this?”

  Tango scrutinises Zedaph closely. “Honestly, I wouldn’t put ANYTHING past him. But in this case, I think he might be right. It’s a classic Scar move to mistime a big brain play.”

  “Nononononononono!” Scar yelps. “Zedaph’s trying to throw me under the bus! I was just going round doing all my tasks with him and I didn’t see him do anything so I don’t know why he’d lie about this but he’s definitely at least mistaken! Wait, we didn’t even go into the cargo bay! You GOTTA be the imposter!”

  “Scar, bro, you’re talking way too fast,” Grian observes. “I think it’s Scar. I’m voting for Scar.”

  “Me too,” Etho says. 

  “No, come on, I’m being thrown under the bus!” Scar says desperately. “Don’t kick me out! Please!” 

  But everyone votes for Scar, except Scar himself, who votes for Zedaph. He and Etho exchange a grin as Scar is ejected from the ship. 

  They won.

[russetfoxfur]

here’s my two cents:

- i usually title my works before i begin writing, which is weird but i can only really start working on something once i have a name to refer to it as. i can only remember one fic that i had trouble naming, and then i got attached to a placeholder so eh

- summarizing the fic is also pretty hard. usually i just go with ‘in which…’ and then something that vaguely describes the plot and tone (such as my latest fic, summarized with ‘in which there are things Zedaph is not supposed to know about, but he does anyway, and suffers the consequences’; spooky and gives just enough detail to know what it’s about imo)

- i dont really do much editing. usually its a few checkovers for glaring continuity errors and spelling mistakes, but i dont really tend to obsess over what i write.

- tagging the fic… i tag major tropes, general warnings, characters, ships, fandom, and sometimes a few talky tags that dont feel proper to include in the a/n.

- on particularly bad days i pray to calliope to help me write

Doing this again with an actual weeklong response time because I want a larger sample size:

[martuzzio]

The hermits probably have game night as often as they can, with Tango and Zedaph making up games as to not have so much repetition. When Grian comes in and makes Tag, has the Civil war (ended with them finding post it notes and capturing them) and Demise (long, drawn out and over complicated pillow fight) Tango feels his self proclaimed position as the mini game king is threatened so he makes Decked out, a super complicated obstacle course among other things

Grian sees a lot of weird stuff as a hermit. Some is good, some is bad, and some is way too bizarre to form a final opinion. This monstrosity - this large, looming structure made of random materials that just barely fits into testing bay four - is definitely in the third category.

Grian doesn’t know how long he stands there and tries to process the structure before a soot-covered head pokes out of a window and grins down at him. Tango looks like he’s been using his hair to weld again. Grian feels his vestigial wings twitch and wonders if this would be a good time to run away.

“Hello, Grian.” Tango is using his monologue voice he saves for Convex generals after wiring their bases to explode. “I see you’re taken aback with awe at the splendor of my newest creation.” He makes a complex fluttering motion with a grease-blackened hand that causes Grian’s brain to short circuit.

“I, uh...” Grian trails off and peers down the bay to double check his eyes are working properly. The structure seems to go on forever and has many twists and turns. How did Tango get all of this junk in here? “Where did you get all of this material?” He asks. He then points at a striped hunk of military-grade plating. “Is that part of a ship’s hull?”

Tango makes a scoffing noise that reverberates off the nearby metal. “A master never reveals his secrets.”

Grian closes his eyes to reorient himself. He’ll ask one question to placate the demon, then leave. “Are you going to tell me what this is or leave me guessing?”

Tango scrunches his eyebrows together and looks off into the nonexistent middle distance. He holds the position a moment too long. “I can’t leave you guessing if you haven’t made any guesses yet.” He looks back down at Grian and flutters his fingers at him, flinging some specks of grease toward the ground in the process. “Make a guess!”

Grian sidesteps a blob of grease and says the first thing that comes to his mind. “A maze.”

Tango’s responding shriek makes Grian’s ears ring and causes his shoe to collide with the grease blob after all. “Wow, you’re good! Say more.” The demon implores as almost all of his torso hangs out of the window to leer down at Grian. “What will the maze do?”

“Uh,” Grian trails off, but then the chaotic side of his brain finally catches up and the abomination he’s looking at starts to make sense. “Is this a game? For the hermits? Where we... we come here and go through the maze and collect stuff, probably, and then we’ll compete with each other. And there will be stuff in the maze that makes it more difficult, and special loot, and-”

Grian’s jaw clicks shut when Tango finally gives up on clinging to the window frame and silently drops down to the hanger floor. He marches right up into Grian’s personal space and looms over him with a sharp glint in his eye. The heat of his body makes Grian twitch.

“I’m coming for your crown, jetpack man. Watch your back.” Tango whispers conspiratorially. With that, he pivots on one heel and scuttles back off into the hanger, soon to be swallowed up by the tangled array of material. His maniacal giggle grows impossibly loud as it rings off of the maze’s metal surfaces.

Grian stands frozen in time for a while longer before forcing himself out of the testing bay doors. Even though his knees feel weak, he stumbles forward to complete his new mission: alert Impulse and Stress that Tango needs an updated psych eval test.

Space outlaws lore can be seen here.
