Commission for @sheafrotherdon , scene from the repair shop AU which I think is an absolute fandom classic at this point. I love the fic, I love these characters, so this was SO much fun to do. ❤️

gay men in books today: i have given thought to my sexual orientation, and i have realised i have Gay Feelings for my friend i hang out with. i will confess, and we will kiss.
(not) gay men in classic lit: i drew a portrait of my ideal woman and made love to it and realised only later, delirious, that i drew my childhood best friend i havent spoken to in years and who has consumed my every thought since we were children. he is my brother, my master, my companion, he has reshaped my world and given birth to the man i am today. i marvel at how handsome he is as he boxes shirtless in his yard. we kiss on the mouth and i long for him the rest of my life. // i have committed a heinous crime and and i am plagued with guilt and paranoia and self-loathing and gave myself a delirious fever. i am full of hatred for all mankind and have just thought how i would verbally abuse and spit on anyone who would dare talk to me as i unconsciously walked to my only friend’s house. i havent spoken to him in months and he welcomes me with open arms. he nurses me and spoon-feeds me while im driven half-mad by the blood on my hands, which he does not see.

One of my favourite things when reading fanfiction is when you click with an author's style so much that you adore the fanfiction you're reading, and once it's over you need more. So you go to their page and hope that there's more for any fandom you might know- only there isn't any. They've written for other fandoms you aren't familiar with and never would've thought about before.
But you're down so bad for their style and talent that they got you wading in like:

a scene must be included PRIOR to sex where the characters READ their birth certificates OUT LOUD so the reader will know they were born on the SAME DATE to avoid any disgusting AGE GAPS

muss nur kurz betonen, wenn ich sage "ich hab noch nie ne folge germanys next topmodel angeschaut" meine ich das nicht im sinne von 'ich bin besser als andere'. kinners als ich 16 war hab ich mir mit bbc sherlock das hirn weggebrezelt. ich hab genauso viel lack gesoffen, nur andere geschmacksrichtungen

I explained the concept of "blorbo from my shows" to my 71 year old immigrant grandfather because I referenced it in passing and I thought nothing of it, until today when he said "I think I'll watch peaky blinders tonight and see my blorbo from my shows" referring, of course, to Cillian Murphy playing Tommy Shelby
