Ok so I didn’t know daydreaming about whump was so common?? Wow. It should work the opposite way but imagining being tortured and acting a little bit of it out helps me sleep?? I pretend I’m a character and rescued after and then fall unconscious in someone’s arms and it works every time. Sometimes it takes me longer so I pretend like I’m in the ICU afterwards, listening half-conscious as people whisper about me in concern

About the horses--

So the issue I kept running into was that I couldn't come up with a good reason that the Ravens wouldn't have already eaten the horses. There have been hardly any animals in my setting so far. Horses are big animals! But I liked the IDEA of horses so much... I couldn't replace the mental image I had with something else, like a jeep. Horses... after I saw The VVitch movie, and the scene where the kids are walking through the woods and the girl is on the horse-- wow, I couldn't just not put a horse in this bad boy.

MMM so if you want to you can read this fic on ao3 called fox.hunt.hound where Wymack is a deranged lunatic, kind of like willem dafoe, and you get to see him skedaddle endtimes at the exact same time andrew minyard is going into psudo drug-induced heat in a prison cell. If you want.

fox.hunt.hound

part 12 - Castle Evermore | 4.6k

Careful hands removed his blindfold once they were inside. The Raven, with his mask removed, scrutinized Andrew like he was the last person he wanted to be stuck with.

The latest chapter of my ongoing apocalypse fic titled fox.hunt.hound is now up on ao3! The premise of the fic is sort of an apocalypse-y, dark comedy situation where Neil joins up with the Foxes, who are being hunted by the Ravens, for survival purposes, and accidentally pisses off everyone. Pretty much everyone sustains medically significant amounts of brain damage. It's a great time.

An extra special thanks, by the way, to all of you who have stuck with this fic for so long. I know I've been a bit slow updating recently, and for that I am very sorry! But I promise (a blessing or a curse?) I will never... NEVER... give up on this fic till its been driven to the GRAVE. <3

HAHAHA so you can read the next chapter of fox.hunt.hound on ao3 right now actually. So hilarious that's a thing. Hahahahahaaha. I'm so sorry guys.

Andrew clenched his fists beneath the table. He’d been right from the beginning. They were irreconcilable. Riko’s words rang back to him. Not in any universe.

Thanks for checking out the final installment of my aftg reverse big bang comic! If you enjoyed it, you can check out my other aftg fic on ao3: fox.hunt.hound. If you didn't enjoy it, fair enough. It was dark and gruesome and a lot of people died.

Late, as always. Thanks for checking it out. Mind the tags. Sorry for what it is.

Too Dark

I think I may have gone a little overboard with my latest fic. I think it's too dark. I considered not posting it at all, but I worked on it for like, four months to finish it, and it seems kind of a waste not to. But it's so morbid. Rather than make some kind of feeble apology, maybe my readers will accept this drawing instead.

I'm okay, by the way. The dark, dark fics are no reason to feel alarm. Take my word for it, but also, take this pleasant drawing. Isn't it nice? Isn't it?

They took shots at the bar until Riko forgot he didn’t know how to dance, or that he hated Andrew so bad he’d been planning to smash his face on asphalt, or maybe do worse. The world swirled up and around like the smoke from Andrew’s cigarette when they took a break to stand by an open window in the bathroom and pass it between themselves. And then the world dipped and buckled like Andrew’s knees when Riko pushed him into the graffiti and kissed him hard.

My contribution to the @aftgreverse event. Prompt from the supremely inspired @rikomoriyama01. Heed warnings on ao3 and happy reading!

neil: i've been on the run my entire life, nothing i own is real, not my id, not my name or my appearance

andrew: that looks like a person with a legit driver's license i'm gonna give him my brand new car

[larkbarks]

andrew is so real for thinking neil is a hallucination cos now that we have outsider pov on him it's actually insane that he's a real person. like this is neil josten: he's the prettiest boy you've ever met. he's the runaway son of a serial killer. he has a million dollars but is afraid of spending money. he folds his clothes a specific way so he can tell when someone's gone through his stuff. he keeps a stalker's journal on the two greatest exy players of all time. he wears coloured contacts and they're brown. he paid a busboy $100 to knock him out cold. he insulted a celebrity athlete on live tv after trying to keep a low profile. he says he's trying to stay alive while running towards death like it's a race. he mouths off to the mafia. he respects your boundaries and is the first person ever to take you at face value and not consider you an out of control psychopath. he orders hits on your abusers. he has the most electric blue eyes you've ever seen. he looks great in clubbing clothes but dresses like he's homeless. he insults someone for their "intricate and endless daddy issues" while his father is a convicted mobster and serial killer. he didn't give a fuck when his teammate was killed. everyone seems to like him even though it's clear he's hiding a million secrets. he doesn't catch on to the many many hints you're giving him. he calls you out not for being a danger to others but for being a danger to yourself. he thinks you should be protected as well as trusting you to protect him (and you think, how can someone be a victim and a protector?). he doesn't give a flying fuck what literally anyone thinks about him. he comes back from being waterboarded and tortured and abused for weeks (to protect you) and is still as feisty and bitchy as before. except now he's a redhead and has many more scars. he is possibly the first person to ever make the active decision to protect you. he's willing to put himself in harm's way again and again and again so he won't lose you. he always has a cigarette but he never smokes. he says "you're not actually a sociopath are you?" and "the next time someone calls you soulless i might have to fight them". even though he's messy and a little oblivious he's sees you. he might be the only person to ever want you off your drugs. he wants to see you lose control, is aware that you're not out of control, you're actually so controlled and restrained all of the time and he wants to see you feel something, he wants you to be angry, be angry at him. he riles you up on purpose to see you show emotion, feel something. he's a runner and yet he's still possibly the bravest person you've ever met. he gets kidnapped and comes back even more bruised and battered than before and he's still a mouthy little shit who bitches at the press and cuts deals with the yakuza. he's most of the reason why the worst team in the nation ends up winning championships. he shoves a guy clean off his feet because they body checked you. he punched celebrity athlete riko moriyama in public, for you. he threatens him, for you. he's almost killed on live tv. he mouths off to the fbi. he watches the (second) best exy player in the world get shot. he also watches his father, notorious serial killer and gangster, get shot in front of him. and he laughs. he smiles. he kisses you and is never gonna run again and he's free and he wants to be with you, he wants you.
