#THANK U ILY

the tik tok trend of flashing your boyfriend unexpectedly would have both eddie and steve like 😵‍💫🤤😵‍💫

oh my god.

but hear me out. yes, both boys would absolutely drool, but they’d also react just a little bit differently.

(i got carried away beneath the cut my fucking bad minors dni)

with steve, i can see you doing it during a fight. he’s saying something like “it was your turn to do the dishes, baby-“ and then you’re suddenly yanking up your t-shirt that had once been his and he’s just blanking. rapidly blinking, mouth agape and brows slack before furrowing them up. “what’s the matter?” you’d tease him.

and he just starts huffing in frustration because “no. no way. nope. not fair. you still have to do the dishes.”

and so you’d jump a little, smirking at the way his eyes are widening before he just starts pacing and you’re being even more of a fucking tease.

“are we sure about that? can’t we renegotiate terms, baby?”

“renegotiate? reneg- fuck off. fuck right off. i-“ and he’s tugging at his hair, torn between continuing the small argument that he can hardly recall the premise for now as you continue to grip on the hem of your shirt and smirk so proudly at him. “fine. you wanna renegotiate, honey? let’s renegotiate.”

you think you’ve won until he’s suddenly grabbing you up and taking you to the bedroom, treating you like the brat that you are. and by the end of the night, he’s just smirking at you and your chest littered in flowering bruises as he says, “guess you’ll have to clean the sheets instead now, baby.”

but then…. but then with eddie. oh dear god.

it’s not over a fight. no. it’s not a distraction — it’s your attempt to gain his attention. he’s been paying attention to planning a campaign or his guitar or just anything but you the entire day. and by the end of it you’re just so damn needy. it was either this or full on climbing into his lap, and flashing him was just the easier of the two options.

“hey, eds?” would be your innocent start to it, but honestly? he’s not even listening. he doesn’t even hear you as he’s focusing on his damn notebook.

he doesn’t even notice when you raise your shirt, or when you huff with annoyance as he continues to be so fucking oblivious.

“eddie.”

no response.

“edward.”

still no response.

“edward munson-“

when he finally hears his full government name you have half his attention, but not enough of it. he wouldn’t even glance up from his notebook as he says, “just a minute, sweetheart. i just figured out this new NPC and really need to-“

“how the hell do i have my tits out and you’re still talking about that fucking game?”

that would get his attention for a few reasons — the promise of tits and your tone of voice for starters — but even more so, the fact that you rarely lose patience or understanding when it comes to his hobbies. he’d be looking up in an instant, you could probably have heard a crack from across the room at how intensely he’s suddenly snapping that damn head up just to catch you dropping the shirt back down.

“wait, no, wait- what? where’d the boobs go?”

“sorry, only boyfriends who pay attention to their lovers get boobs.”

he’s never tossed that fucking notebook to the side so quickly as he spins around his chair, full focus on you entirely now, “who said i wasn’t paying attention? i’m paying attention, sweetheart. i’m paying so much attention.”

he’d prove just how much attention he’s paying to you when his head is buried between your thighs, only pausing on rare occasions to breathe and sometimes spout out new ideas for that stupid campaign, which only makes you tug harder on his damn curls and cut him off with his own moans before he returns to giving you his full attention.

hello balls i was thinking about how jirt wanted elves to exclusively fuck to procreate and that just seemed wrong. so i wanted to say thank you for writing insane elf smut im so grateful because tolkien got it wrong and its like you’re correcting the lore via ao3

oh i am but a mere and relatively unexceptional raisin in the enormous and delicious flaming fruitcake that is weird elf smut.

my entire psyche and outlook on life was changed by the time i read that one fic about a midsummer orgy in rivendell. my soul was restructured by the Ansereg!verse. the deep magic was written decades ago, by whoever it was that wrote that memoirs of a geisha esque 10k word smutfic about legolas and elrond. i am merely an emulator. an acolyte, even.

sometimes i like to tell myself that the secret elf smut tolkien wrote and then threw into the fire was in fact eärendiil and his fellow sailor boys having an orgy on vingilot like Cher would have wanted.

[so-dont-ask-me-why]

i think someone should write a five hargreeves fic where he finds a timeline where delores is real and alive

[lust-that-breeds-infection]

Scrolling and scrolling and all I see is you. Your mind is fascinating. What are you on and can I have some? /pos

that was my normal weed #mynormalweed 😎

[yagamisdiary]

Im a Jean girl 4 life, so it took me forever to read Parasite, but it was really good. Now with Eldia, it also took me a while to start, im not really into fantasy, BUT MY FUCKING GOD THAT WAS AWESOME, literally the plot, the characters, it was so beautifully written

thank you so much for your writings amara, we dont deserve you

lol i’m not really a fantasy person either so writing a fantasy book was very new to me and such a fun experience like i had sooooo much fun writing that book, i miss it 😭

[fushiguruuzzzz]

happy valentine’s day guys you’re all my valentines btw

[maybxlle]

u r my icon tbh

you might wanna get a better icon though

8, 33 (and general reflections on character "vs" plot would be so appreciated ☺️), 73!

oof BIG ONES

8. what’s your relationship with constructive criticism and feedback like? do you seek it out? how well do you take it?

constructive criticism/feedback is something i don't really seek out when it comes to fic because it's a hobby and something i do for pleasure!! also i am IMPATIENT and once i think something is done, i want it OUT. i know the practice of beta-reading has fallen out of style, but i might take advantage of it if it was still common! if my impatience didn't get in the way

however, i have a very, very close relationship with criticism and feedback after years and years and years of being part of poetry workshops. i appreciate it, definitely take it into account, and have thickened my very sensitive skin to it when necessary <3

33. do you start with the characters or the plot when writing?

really interesting question because i think i start with a pairing and a situation– like, i'm either working with a situation that has a specific type of dynamic and finding a pairing that fits it. or i have a specific pairing i want to write about and am looking for the situation i can put them that fits their dynamic.

for shotgun waiting to sound, i got so possessed by the idea of ryan leonard that i shoved him in a room with pld and figured out what i thought their dynamic would be and the plot came out of that.

but for tócame ya, the initial situation was given to me and i knew who the pairing would be, so their dynamic and vibe was sussed out THROUGH the plot.

i do think these things develop side-by-side for me! you can't completely separate them! the decisions the characters make always have to come back to who they are/their lives/their experiences, which means plot is dependent of your understanding of them, but also you get to CHOOSE what happens to them to move them in certain directions!!!

73. how do you visualize scenes? do you see it like a movie in your head, or do the words just flow?

oh god i am such a visualizer that i have to make sure i'm not over-describing what i see. i probably still am tbh!!!! i want to spend paragraphs talking about exactly how someone is sitting in the room and how they get across the room and what happens to their clothes when they sit down again and the hair between their eyebrows. i know what the inside of each apartment/room i write about looks like. it is a serious problem and keeps me from moving quickly through my scenes. woof

[strawberrystepmom]

saw a dante shirt at hot topic just now n thought of you 💖

i felt a strong love in my heart and that must have been the exact moment i crossed your mind <3333333

[ghost-proofbaby]

ghost… hear me out.

what about perv!tattoo artist eddie 👁️👄👁️

like you’re good friends, have been for a long time but he wants you so bad. so when you finally start coming to him for some work he nearly loses his damn mind. and you want him just as bad obvi

but say you’re getting something on your collarbone, and you really should sit on his lap for this one. just so he can get all those intricate details perfect, yeah?

or like you mentioned getting an ass/hip piece done. and you know he really should help you check on it during the healing process, any good friend would do that right?

sorry omg my mind started going crazy thinking about this i’ll shut up now

never shut up, nonnie. this is the shit i live for.

i see your vision and raise you a new conglomeration of all the sinning i’ve flooded my page with the last 24 hours: perv!tattoo artist!eddie who works tirelessly to convince you to let him do your hip/ass tattoo. begs and begs and begs. draws up 5+ designs, all catered to all your wants and needs.

and he’s good. he’s your friend. you’d be getting an insane discount.

so you’d finally agree, seeing absolutely no downside, the style he was offering being similar enough to that original artist you were going to book. and it’s better this way, of course, since eddie has his private studio versus the shop you would have gone to instead. when you strip down to nothing but a thong, when the teeny straps of it are being shoved out of every which way for him to expose the necessary skin, when you feel the first chill from his hands brushing over the back of your thigh that you convince yourself is due to exposure and not just because it’s him - you’re gonna be grateful it’s just you and eddie in the room.

when the pain of the needle has you somehow simultaneously wincing and letting out little whimpers, because have you always had a pain kink? or is it just the man behind the needle?, you’ll be thanking the universe you chose to go with the intimate setting and your best friend rather than some wide open space and a stranger.

and when that first good girl falls from his lips, more praises of how you’re doing so good for him following, you’re going to be grateful it’s only eddie and those four walls to witness the way you’re looking at your best friend.

eddie’s grateful, too. no one else needs to hear how pretty you sound for him. not yet. not when he hasn’t even touched you properly yet.

not when he’s just getting started.

[balrogballs]

😊 - I think you are a really friendly person.

🥺❤️🥺

[yagamisdiary]

5, 6, 9, 21?

hi hello thank you ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

5 - What’s a fic idea you’ve had that you will never write?

I don't think there's anything I've straight up decided I won't write. it's just a matter of getting to it. eventually. I have a lot of batfam au's on the brain (mad max, pacific rim, firefly). we'll see if I ever get around to actually writing them

6 - Are there any fics from others you reread all the time?

oh yeah, loads of them. mostly I just go through my own bookmarks though. I don't typically have something in mind

9 - Do you write every day? If you wrote today, share a sentence of what you’ve written!

most days, even when I don't have time. I write in my notes app so I can write on my phone when I'm out and about. I have a 'snippets' note where I put little things, ideas, stuff that doesn't have a place yet. I just woke up, but here's the last sentence of what I wrote there yesterday. it'll be part of "someday"

He was tired of loving people who threw themselves at the foot of Death. He couldn’t do it.

21 - Have you ever deleted an entire scene after spending hours laboring over it? If so, why?

totally. mostly because it doesn't actually fit. believe it or not, I actually cut a lot of Bad Things. most of my ideas are Bad Things and I don't actually want to write a fic that's just entirely Bad Things.
