S

She didn't appreciate Todd- wouldn't even look at him during those times, and she doesn't know if he was ever looking at her. It's almost embarrassing to admit it was more than a one-time encounter. And each time was a practical we-are-just-lonely-and-need-relief kind of deal. That's all. She almost missed the chance to ever enjoy it. But, here they are, enjoying it.

from the dirk/todd/farah smut fic. brain decided it had to write it

H

Happy tears prick your eyes, as you them to fuck off downstairs before Todd wakes up. They give you a fond, returning eye-roll, as they trudge out of the apartment. Now it's just you and him. The start of a sunrise tries to peak through the overcast sky. Everything is different. Less than a day ago, you'd say for the worst. That confession- that betrayal- hurt more than any pararibulitis attack ever could. You stare at him, the shadow of someone almost familiar. In the morning sun, he's sickly; skin sallow and sad. Black eye. Deserved. It's strange. You're angry. That's not the strange part- you can't imagine ever not being angry- but you don't know… Farah's explanation of what happened, and her frets over him, dance in your brain like flies. He saved Lydia Spring won't stop repeating. The same flush of frustration is still lodged inside and you can't get the damn feeling to fucking move. This is the kind of shit everyone would say you need to go to therapy for. Ugh.

from the amanda fic. its supposed to be dark!amanda but its feeling more just very indepth character study rn haha 😅 its taking forever but i am enjoying this wip

A

Abrasive. Rude, snarky, unpleasant. Difficult. Those are the usual ways Mashita gets described. By the clients, by the majority of the other Bearers. Hell, the spirits probably would if they could. (Well, the Departed made it abundantly clear…) And, even Yashiki himself is inclined to agree, as he too has been on the receiving end of Mashita's irritability. Everyone has; it makes him no more different in those regards.

from a kinda old death mark fic. i do wanna finish cause the fandoms somewhat niche and im itching for specific type of yashita fic so might as well write it myself

R

"Right." He says.   Theoretically, he should probably say he- presumably- saw the same bizarre thing that Dirk did, but it's Dirk, so he won't. Dirk would probably start spewing that they're fated or some shit. Whatever thread Dirk thinks they have, entwining them together, Todd has scissors.   And if he can't use scissors, he has teeth. 

timeloop fic! ive definitely shared this snippet before but apparently i dont start my sentences with the letter R too often 😅

K

Knowing this now, a flush of guilt runs through him. Ingo settles down next to him. "I forgive you." There's nothing to really forgive, but it's easier. Emmet won't accept anything else. Emmet shifts, making more room. "I'm not lying. I know what I saw. What I'm seeing."  That's true. Emmet isn't a liar. His blunt honesty is becoming less charming with each passing year for people- just like Ingo's constant 'rude frown'. But it's not coming from a malicious place- Ingo has certainly never took issue. Ingo just doesn't understand why. Why this? He doesn't want to doubt his brother. Never will, not really. Emmet's not really a prankster-type, despite the mischievous perma-smile plastered on his face. And he especially wouldn't lie to their own mother, or Uncle Drayden. Maybe he would tease Ingo- with Ingo teasing right back- but this seems very... not Emmet. Not his style in the slightest. He's serious, straight-laced. Serious is his fun. This... this doesn't appear to be very fun for him.

aaaand immortal!ingo fic that im hoping to finish soonish (probably after i get the amanda fic done)
