ahhhh i don’t want lessons in love to end

honestly me neither 🥲🥲🥲

but maybe the characters will come back in the occasional one-shot or side story if that’s what people want. i’m sure reader could still do with learning a few more things from bucky🫶🏻

Thank you.

I was just venting and sometimes writing those thoughts down helps me process what's happening and figure what I'm really feeling or where it's coming from (and thus how to calm down). I never really expect any interaction.

However, today none of that helped but it means a lot to me that someone actually cares and took the time to send some encouragement. It helped me push back some intrusive thoughts and compulsions.

So, again, thank you.

The way you filled in the Sam/Bucky gaps was SOOO CLEVER! I love your writing as always 💯❤️

So Silver if is susceptible to flattery and has to be constantly flattered into doing what you'd like it to do to create anything with it... Is this why the one weak point of the dragons in ROTE is flattery also... Bc they have so much Silver in them??

Also I started getting into the namesake song of polluted marrow (Spiracle by Flower Face) and it's so good... I wanna give you the green light to ramble about how you think this song relates to the fic/the characters/etc bc I'm very curious to hear how it inspired you 😊

[cracks knuckles] Okay so,

for starters this AU is kinda old. i think i started toying w the general idea in 2016ish, and the want to write it got hardcore resurrected when i decided to watch an lis1 playthrough for the first time in fucking ages last year. i happened to find Spiracle recently after finishing up so there was already like a 60% chance i'd start associating it w lis through just that, but then i was smacked in the face specifically by this last line

so hard that i was immediately like Oh God I Need To Write That Timelooper Max AU Right The Fuck Now. (like seriously. "i want you butterfly, i want you sailor." what am i supposed to Do after hearing that if not wail over pricefield)

as a whole for me the song is about The Devotion (tm) and how Max loves every last little part of Chloe, good or bad, for better or worse, so goddamn much that she's willing to put herself through all this fucking bullshit several times over. Yearning On A Cosmic Scale kind of vibes.

but then after a few listens i Realized. that some of these lines are really good for Rachel + the admittedly unhinged amberfield dynamic i have brewing. imo Max is definitely not immune to the whole putting the idea of Rachel on a pedestal problem, but she does it Different than everyone else bc her image of Rachel is informed mostly by how important she was to Chloe. which is to say i read some of these lines in an "and i want you, too. i want every part of her and you're a part of her," sort of way.

also this one line is very Max @ both of them

and to bring it back to that last bit again, i feel like the butterfly/sailor line is pretty self-explanatory but "i am your lover, and i am your jailor," to me is the crux of all those conflicting gnarly gay timelooper feelings. no one loves you like me, no one hurts you like me. i'm saving us, i'm keeping us trapped here. i'm the one who pulls you from your grave, i'm the one who throws the first shovel of dirt onto your coffin. i'm your lover, i'm your jailor.

also! even the title easily lends itself to lis imagery bc A) english is stupid and there are too many words that look the damn same so i think of spirals every time i see it. and more concretely, B) spiracles are little holes in an insect's body that they use to get oxygen and ofc,, both butterflies And the chrysalis itself have them. i'm mentally unwell about this actually. truly i wasn't aware i could be emotionally damaged by looking up caterpillar facts but that's what writing does to you i guess.

and lastly i picked out 'polluted marrow' as a title for the whole AU because

could be Any Of Them.

for Max it's "i'll still want you if you're nothing; i'll still want you if your insides are rotting." for Chloe it's "i want to know what's hurting you; i want to take it away." for Rachel it's "i want to see the depth of your sickness; i want you to hold it to my throat like the weapon you've made it into."

OOOH! BSD! Who's ya fave? ^^ 💕🩷

AHHH BSD hello rach thank you for making me think about this show again 😭😭💕

favorite character; *looks at lesbian flag* well. chuuya obv.

are they the best character?; shgfjskxld no fr i love the little gremlin man and he is an amazinggg character for sure but honestly for best character i gotta go with ranpo, i love how he just lk became the main character at some point and he went from being a fun side character to having such a strong arc and playing such a central role in the story. bsd is filled with interesting characters and banger arcs but he just takes the cake ngl

8PM BST is british summer time 🫶🏻

last night i had the final chapter scheduled for post but after going through some final edits, i just didn’t like how it ended (the pressure of ending a series is huge🥲), so i made a few changes and the final chapter will come out tonight at 8PM BST. sorry if there’s been any confusion in that regard.

i’ll add you to the taglist of course, thank you again. i’m so glad you enjoy my writing and i hope you have a fantastic day☀️

Here’s a list of all the redacted audio-themed questions I thought of while high :

- Can werewolves have chocolate?

- Can vampires have garlic? Specifically the Olive Garden breadsticks?

- Does Milo watch jerry springer?

- is angel and David’s getaway car at their wedding a horse drawn carriage yes or no?

- what’s asher’s go-to dad joke?

- I think Darlin’ for sure smokes weed, maybe sweetheart joins them too. Asher might tag along he seems like the type. What would their high snack be? I’m thinking flamin’ hot Cheetos or something
