Hello everyone! I’m a trans, mentally ill kid who loves writing for other people.

I am super embarrassed about asking this, I really feel ashamed I need to ask, but I really need some money of my own, because my mother threatened to throw me out if I don’t find a job soon. She might not actualize her threat, but she verbally attacks me daily, sometimes she even hits me, and it makes me feel very anxious, so much so that I started hurting myself again.

My mom suffers from BPD, and on the good days she’s the best mom, it’s just that when she’s in a bad mood it’s hell, and now it’s been about a month of slaps, pulling at my hair, nasty words and mean comments. 

I really want to save something to move somewhere safer for me, and I’m trying rly hard to find a job, but no one will answer my ads, and I’m starting to see no other solution. I had just one call, but it didn’t work out, and I’m back to the start. 

I want to cry bc I never thought I would be here asking this, but I have an AO3 account, and I’m willing to write fics in exchange for money. You can also find my ficlets under the tag /my-writing.

Even 1 or 2 euros would help. Really.

commission fees:

1 euro: 100-500 words (like this)

2 euros: 500-1000 words (like this)

5 euros: 1000-2000 words (like this or this)

10 euros: >2000 words (like this or this)

>10 euros: multi-chaptered fic depending on the amount (like this)

commission rules:

1) I will write just about anything, except:

ships i don’t know

non con

underage (aka: shota, loli etc)

bottom/twink/omega!john

het johnlock

2) To get a fic you will need to send me the plot or just a prompt, then we can have a chat about what happens in it and in the end I will write it down! You can pay me through PayPal, I have a donate button at the top left of my page on my blog. You’ll just need to make a donation, take a screenshot and submit it to me, then we can write the hell out of our dear boys

I’m also setting up a Patreon account, I will let you know when I understand how it works! 

I really hope I can make some money of my own from this, I promise I will give paid fics full priority over my WIPs, I swear I will! 

If you don’t want my fics, I can also just promo you, to about a thousand followers! 

I also have an XL binder from gc2b that is too large for me, I can sell that too to any trans/nb person who needs it :)

Please give this a go, thank you!

How To Hit On The Sociopath You Just Met - An Illustrated Guide By John Watson

1. Forcibly proclaim not to be his date. You met the sex god only yesterday and do not want to come off too keen.

2. Go slightly cross-eyed with delight as he hands you the menu. This is the man of your dreams and you are very hungry.

3. Seductively flick out your tongue for a split second to show that you are secretly interested. Send him reptilian vibes.

4. Look away casually with your eyes bulging out of your head. Treat ‘em mean, keep ‘em keen.

5. Open proceedings with a statement about arch enemies and hatred. It will be very natural to turn the conversation to his sex life from here.

6. Glance away shiftily with your mouth open to encourage his interest. You got this.

7. Ask if he has a girlfriend. Attempt not to look as though your entire future happiness hinges upon his response.

8. Once it has been established that a girlfriend is non-existent, take a moment for this happy information to sink in. Immediately jump to the conclusion that he is gay and eagerly ask if he has a boyfriend.

9. Remind him that homosexuality is a-okay with you. You want there to be no uncertainty that you are down for some serious hanky panky.

10. Give him a sweet smile to show him that your high sex drive does not inhibit your sweet and sensitive side. You can take emotional baggage as well as his baloney pony.

11. React calmly when he replies that he does not have a boyfriend. Allow the wedding bells to do the chimichanga in your head.

12. Keep your cool. Lick your lips to very subtly let him know that you would be only too happy to change that. Stare into his soul excitedly as if you’ve just spotted a ‘40% off all jumpers’ sign.

13. When he rejects you, keep your face impassive and backpedal vigorously. Do not let on that your heart has been crushed and you are slowly dying.

14. Over the next 3-5 years, pine after him constantly until he fakes his death and you rush into an unhappy marriage with a murderous psychopath. Life is good. Only show your intense dislike of her when she can’t see you.

How was 'The Blind Banker' named?

I have read a lot of posts discussing the influences behind this episode. But where do they get the name for it?

Every Sherlock episode title is derived from either the canon stories (ASiP, ASiB, THoB, TEH, TSoT, HLV) or things related (TGG, TRF, MHR) to the Holmes stories. But it looks like this episode is based on one of ACD’s other work.

Turns out Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote a poem in 1898 named The Blind Archer and can you guess what it’s about? In a nutshell, the poem basically says that you can’t help who you fall in love with. Here the blind archer is obviously Cupid. What I found interesting in the poem is that among other ‘unfortunate’ victims of Cupid one is a veteran who can’t believe that he is falling in love. Then there’s this isolated man who feels that he must not fall in love because he’s planning a celibate vow and has duties to do. Remind you of anyone?

So what do you think? Just yet another coincidence in the so very lazy Sherlock universe?

S4 hints from Gatiss

New article with some new quotes today:  

http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2016/sherlock-series-four

A few things I find interesting.

Gatiss say: “Sherlock series four - here we go again! Whatever else we do, wherever we all go, all roads lead back to Baker Street - and it always feels like coming home. Ghosts of the past are rising in the lives of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson bringing adventure, romance and terror in their wake. This is the story we’ve been telling from the beginning. A story about to reach its climax...”

1. Romance. This word isn’t pulled from thin air, and its not one immediately associated with “a detective show”. Yet Gatiss names it as one of three primary flavors or components of S4. Obviously the show will have adventure and terror, but it will have romance too!  (and thank fuck for that) What “romance” is S4 to bring? It’s unlikely John/Mary, because they already did that in S3 and their marriage was hardly in a healthy romantic state at the end of TAB. Alternatively it could be a side couple (Lestrade/Molly, for example or a case), but we’ve seen those sorts of minor subplots before, and it wouldn’t be considered a major theme of the show. My guess is that the romance component IS related to John and Sherlock then.

2. The story we’ve been telling from the beginning, a story about to reach its climax.  For a writer a story’s “climax” is a very specific thing, not just a euphemism. It comes at a specific point in the story arc. It defines everything that comes before and everything that comes after.  The climax is where you’ve pushed your characters so far and so far and so far during the preceding story arc, set up obstacle after obstacle, made them do more and more extreme things (Sherlock shooting Magnussen to save John, for example) until you really could not push them anymore without it becoming redundant or farce. Then, finally, the character(s) break through the main villain/obstacle and succeed. So we know, first that S4 will bring the story’s climax. Thank God. With so much waiting for episodes on this show, it’s been agony watching the story’s slow progression. So yay for S4! Can’t wait to see it.

But what is ‘the story we’ve been telling from the beginning”. I honestly can think of two things this could be. 

Option A: The “Moriarty” plotline. This was set up in S01:E01 in a big way “Moriarty!” the cabbie cries as he’s dying. And I think there’s been trickery there since the start. So yes, this could be the mains story arc they are climaxing in S4. [There’ll be a twist here – Could be Mary=Moriarty or Moriarty has a secret twin or something similar.]  Note that the Mary/John story is really PART of the Moriarty arc and also part of the Sherlock/John’s relationship arc at the same time. (”I’ll burn the heart out of you!”)

Option B: The John/Sherlock romance plotline. Also set up in S01:E01. The development of their relationship has been as key to the show as the Moriarty plotline. We definitely left it in a bad state at the end of S3, so there’s lots to resolve here. At the very least, I suspect by the end of S4 Mary will be gone and John and Sherlock will be in a state where there is no longer a big obstacle between them. However, given that “romance” is part of Gatiss’s description of S4, it’s quite possible that we’ll see the climax of John and Sherlock’s story, which may be a love confession at a Garridebs moment or a kiss.

Option C: Both. In really good writing, a scene does 3 or 4 things at the same time. It might bring a positive beat on one sub-plotline, a negative beat on the main plotline, and set up a hint for a future reveal, for example. Gatiss/Moffat have written brilliant scripts for Sherlock–dare I say, their best ever. They have intertwined the Moriarty/Johnlock plotlines so well (and if Mary is confirmed as either Moriarty or Moran, we’ll see how true this is - she’s a major player/obstacle on both plotlines). So it’s very possible the climax of BOTH plotlines will happen in the same episode.  [eg Mary is revealed to be Moriarty, John is shot and lies dying, Sherlock confesses his love– something like that.]
