I'm in need of Kastle fic recs (AND ALSO PROMOTE YOURS!)

It's almost impossible to truly rec fics in this fandom, because the sheer level of writing talent/skill in it is immense and I'd just have to keep going! I have to say that a lot of the stuff I've read is older, too, and I still owe a good many people proper reviews. 😉

That said, I remember enough brilliant authors to simply blanket-recommend anything they've put out over the years. Soooo... a shortlist of authors with a lot of good stuff to dig into, linking to their ao3:

Ejunkiet

evil bunny wolf

carrythesky

ninzied

heidiamalia

ikijai

nagia

spellitwithyourpeas

jencat

awwcoffeenooooo

maplemood

PunkyNemo

seren_ccd

tuntekorpp

glycerineclown

queenwithoutacrown

piratesails

alchemystique

edourado

idekman

PurpleLex

Also my own Kastle works are under my main pseud on ao3 right here! 🩷

Rory and Jess for the 🎧 prompt?

hiiiiiii, i am willfully misinterpreting this line for my own stupid purposes!! hope you like, sorry it took a minute. also, it's 200 words, RIP.

your line: took a plane to take a cold shower (from 'dontstop' by girlhouse)

-

"You flew." He sounds dubious. Suspicious, even, not that she'll get any points for synonyms.

"Yes."

"To California."

She sighs, shifting from foot to foot in the doorway. Her bag is getting heavy. "Yes."

"You got on a plane and you flew," he repeats, "to California."

"Yes," she groans. "What are you, a broken record? Let me in."

"You went through TSA?"

"Jess."

"To see me?"

She pauses. That's the question, isn't it? The big and ultimate point of why she came all this way—the deal she made with her grandmother to get the money—the way her mom is going to freak out when she realizes she's not at school right now. All of that is pointing to a big question in marquee lights, glaring over her head.

She bites her lip. Screw it.

"Yes."

The kiss lands like wheels hitting tarmac, like her bag slamming to the ground, like thousands of pounds of mistakes being shed and forgotten and hurts forgiven and everything happening all at once, activating the centers of her brain that had shut down.

When he pulls back, she realizes she's going to need a shower. Maybe a cold one.

"Okay." Jess swallows. "Come in, then."

-

send me 🎧 & a ship/character (+ a number, if you want to get specific with the line), and i'll put my music on shuffle and write 100 words based on a line from the song that comes up. (new note bc of an ask i got: please specify if you want your drabble to be nsfw!)

hello, I’m here to spread some end of year joy!! amy, you have been such a bright light this year for me, and your positivity and happiness are so magnetic. seeing you still thriving in the cs fandom is amazing, and I will be selfish enough to say that it has helped me with my own muse this year. I’ve loved talking to you about captain swan and taylor swift. you’re a dream and a half and I’m grateful for you, and I hope your 2021 is beautiful (and that we finally finish that fic next year)!!

Amy my dear <3

Thank you for your kind words, they went straight to my heart. It has been wonderful talking to you again this year. You are such a funny and brilliant soul and I’m very grateful to have you in my life. Plus, we’re lucky enough to share two braincells and have similar taste, so it like doubles the fun of it all ;) 

I’m wishing you a lot of happiness for this coming year, and I’m sure we will find time to finish this project. I’m so glad you started writing again, and I hope you are proud of yourself because you should be!! 

Take good care of you, I’m sending my warmest hugs <3

[willexxmercer]

10,12,14 for the fanfic ask game!

Thank you so much Amy!

10. What word do you keep using like it’s going out of style?

Everyone shrugs all the time in my fics.  All. the. time.  SHRUGGING.

12. What headcanon will you keep implementing in your fics, even if canon ends up contradicting it?

The 100: Echo being Roan’s adopted sister.  It’s pretty much a staple in everything I write that involves both of them.

JatP: I kind of like the backstory I came up with for Bobby in my recent fic, so I’ll probably keep using that too

14. What trope would you refuse to write even if you were paid to do it?

ABO.  Full stop.

[ineffablecolors]

Happy birthday!! Hope your year is the best one yet and you overload on your sweet thing of choice today 💕💕

Thank you ever so much, hun! *runstogetmerranguecake*

[timeless-love-story]

Sheila!! I’m here to spread some year end joy!! you’re always supportive and kind and 2020 hasn’t rattled your traits in the slightest. thankyou for continuing to spread captain swan content and for reminding me of how talented this fandom can still be, even years later! I definitely owe you for helping me get back into writing, even if it is indirectly, by reminding me that I once could and that there is still a space for it. I hope your 2021 is gentle and kind to you♥️

Thank you, Amy! This is so kind of you. I’m happy you found your way back to writing. And that I had some part in it puts a big smile on my face. I wish you a happy and healthy 2021!

Meredith’s Favorite Fics Moodboard

Feel a Little Rush (I Think I’ve Got a Crush) by @piratesails

He can appreciate the advancement that the internet has brought, a completely new language that it’s created with acronyms and shorter words per sentences that deliver precisely the same meanings. Wherein I’m going to die ilysm and omg wtf this man and CRYING are all appropriately positive expressions, and apparently only the beginning of the comments under his photo.

AU where high school lit teacher Killian Jones ends up on the hotdudesreading Instagram and is very confused by it all.

If you love the idea of lit teacher Killian and guidance counselor Emma, plus well-written fluff that will make you feel all sorts of things, look no further! This is one I love to revisit over and over. @csficrecmonday

[musicalsaregreat]

hi there! I was wondering if you knew where I could watch the hd bootleg for she loves me? it was uploaded on yt at some point but taken down and now I can’t find it anywhere. if you’ve got any clue, I will adore you forever!

Hello!! :) So after some snooping I found the proshot here and a slightly lower quality version of it here (should be noted that this version has the audio matched up a lot better). Enjoy!!

[noahreids]

lana I recently rewatched the last season of schitt's creek and it hit me all over again AND you just posted a ted/alexis gifset that made me wanna sob into my hands because I love them. so! what are you alexis headcanons post-finale?

Amy!! <333 I am so sorry this took me so long to reply, though at least it should give you some comfort to know I haven’t changed one bit. Ha. It makes me so happy to hear you’ve rewatched season 6... it plays on a permanent loop in my heart. (Tho I’m sorry for the Ted/Alexis tears!) I’ve read some truly wonderful Ted/Alexis post-finale fics that do way better justice than me but... Mmm...

- I think it takes some time. 

- I think Alexis goes off to New York, and just shines brighter than ever before. She’s confident, and grows her business and does not look back. 

- Ok, so maybe she still follows Ted on instagram and sometimes her fingers itch to send a message but instead she drops a like and tosses her phone off to the side of a deep breath. But, he really did look happy with that turtle on the beach and so— she’s happy.

- I think she dates, and she has fun, and she’s happy. She helps with Moira’s Emmy campaign, and when the Apothecary expands, she helps with the social media blitz and grand opening. She comes back to Schitt’s Creek often, where she can take a deep breath and relax. She loves staying at David and Patrick’s cottage. While she’s there, sometimes she stays home and works out of Patrick’s office, or on their back patio. Sometimes she hangs out a Rose Apothecary, just to drive David crazy and smile across the store at Patrick. 

- She often walks by Ted’s old vet clinic. Sometimes alone, sometimes with David, usually her heart beats a little faster and she lets David give her shoulders a little squeeze. 

- But I also think, a few years after their goodbyes, when Alexis is in town for the holidays, and her and David are making their way over to the cafe. There’s a fresh snowfall and she’s taunting David with a snowball and he is demanding that she immediately drop it, but where is the fun in that? She lets the ball fly, and David in a surprisingly agile move, ducks— the snowball hits someone coming out of the cafe square in the chest.

- “SNOW-way! Alexis?!”

- And her heart? It’s beating really fast. She would know that voice and those puns, and god, that smile anywhere. 

- Ted is home for the holidays, home from his study abroad, home to figure out what the hell he’s going to do next. 

- And maybe Alexis has been looking for a small change too, maybe now that she’s established she has more freedom where she can work, and more time to figure it out. 

- And maybe David’s disappeared and Ted and Alexis go on a long walk, and catch up and make plans for tomorrow, and the day after that, and the one after that. Maybe?

- And her heart? It never stops racing.

10, 27, 32, 50, for the end of year asks!

10. What song sums up this year for you?

The Weepies: “Not Your Year” 

27. Have you done anything that scared you?

Oooooh, I spoke to celebrities that I previously just stumbled around words with? I went to a convention by myself with hopes that I would meet up with people (but um... that didn’t quite go as planned...) and I started looking for new jobs which scares the crap out of me. 

32. Did you start a new relationship?

See above gif. No, I sadly did not. Had some feelings, but never did anything with them. Another year a happy cat lady. 

50.What do you wish for yourself?

That I find what I’m looking for, in any aspect, and that what I want wants me, too. :D

Come ask me things!

[scoopsgf]

I’m so spaced out these days because there’s been so much uni work and I keep missing meetings I need to be attending because I don’t know what day it is and I’m literally just. keeping track of the end of the weeks by you posting a new chapter of RA. so thank u for keeping me somewhat sane ilu

it’s so funny you should say that because I’ve been feeling the exact same way? idk if it’s a mid-semester slump or what but all of the days are blending together and i rarely ever know what’s going on LMAO. anyway ilu2 and i’m glad you’ve at least got RA to help keep track of time

[distant-rose]

I think I’m late so happy belated birthday!! you’re amazing and inspiring and someday I hope to be half the writer and person that you are. I hope you have a fantastic year❤️

It’s totally fine. Generally the people who show up late to the party are the cool ones anyway. It’s the thought that counts and I appreciate you thinking of me.

And, girl, you are already more. You’re incredibly talented and inspiring writer. And nothing makes me happier than seeing your posts across my dash. 500/10 would recommend following you and reading your incredible writing. 

I hope everything is going well for you and you have a great year as well. Much love to you.
