I'm in love with your writing! I keep re-reading The Feature... and I rarely re-read fanfics. Would you ever write a priest!Benedict fic? I think you'd do GREAT with some Fleabag Hot Priest energy. (Plus, you know, the priest kink many of us have)

Thou Shalt Not Covet // Priest!Benedict x Reader

Series Summary: After an unsavoury encounter with a stranger, you find yourself seeking safety within the walls of a quiet church. But when a young, attractive priest finds you sitting alone in the pews, you can’t help the less-than-holy thoughts that begin to take over.

Series Warnings: Strong language, adult and sexual themes, dark humour, irreverence, eventual smut/explicit sexual content, priest kink, religious imagery, female reader, reader has a name (no Y/N). Readers must be 18+

For those who don't like You/Reader fics: There is a first person version of this story available to read here on AO3.

Chapters:

Providence

Temptation

Faith

Sacrilege

Sacrifice

Credence

Divinity

Penance

Sin

Baptism

Communion

Mercy (coming soon)

Disclaimer: If you are easily offended by stories/kinks/smut involving religion or religious figures then please do not read this fic. It is your responsibility to avoid content that may trigger or offend you, and while it is never my intention to cause harm or disrespect with the fics I write, I simply cannot cater to everyone 100% of the time. If you do choose to read this story, then please try to take it for what it is: a work of fiction.

This is a short series and will only be a handful of chapters long.

why write a story if no one's going to read it?

Sometimes you don't want to share a story with others. Sometimes you do want to share it, but no one clicks on the title. So why bother writing it down if the only person you can guarantee will read it is you?

You need to get it out of your head. It just keeps replaying in your imagination on a loop and the only way to get it unstuck is to pin it down on paper.

You need to figure out what the story is. You have a lot of disjointed scenes or lines that you know are connected but you can't quite figure out how.

There's something in the story that's important to you, and you don't want to lose that thing by forgetting it. Future you might find that thing important too.

You want to be able to go back to the story again and again. Maybe to make adjustments over time. Maybe just to revisit a story that gives you the emotional release you need in that moment.

You want to be able to use text-to-speech to read the story aloud to you. Maybe it's a bedtime story. Maybe it's keeping you company while you do errands and chores.

You want to find out whether you can write a story (because not everyone can).

You want to be able to have almost the same story, but a little bit different, and you want to have it 15 times with slight variations. Then you can go through your own personal menu picking exactly the combination of beats that will satisfy you most on this reading.

You enjoy the process of finding just the right words or phrases or scenes to paint the pictures you want to shape the scene.

You want to find the exact rhythm and syllables and structure to make a sentence really sing.

You don't really have any particular reason, but you know you want to write that story down.

[mavians-harem]

to you, it's a shitty sentence. to some random bitch 500 miles away, it's a fire line that'll haunt them for the next 17 years.

you don't know how impactful your writing is because it's been in your brain for far too long now. you've stared at it for hours and repeated "this sucks" over and over again to the point that you killed your capacity to feel anything about your work.

but trust me, once you get your shit out there, someone's gonna go over that paragraph you hate and go "jesus fucking christ" and put the book down to have an existential crisis.

Third of 8 sketch animation commissions. The Kirin character belongs to Khan. I tried to took commissions with characters that are radically different from each other. Love animating ferals and humanoids both.

A quick summary of the last 16 months

[mavians-harem]

I love your design for Bowser. So sharp and pointy with a big toothy maw. He looks more dragon than turtle and it's awesome, even if I love the canonical spiky turtle.

i admit i have strayed far from spiky turtle directly into horny dragon turtle territory

Wishing all of you a very merry "I suddenly have the motivation and time to write a minimum 10k fic"... please

Im enjoying the longevity of tumblrs recontextualization style of humor. a seemingly innocuous post followed by like "posts that a gnome would make" or like "are you a phone"

as the crazy person with over 3,000 fics on AO3, who just hit over 2,000,000 hits, i have done... The Math

roughly 5% of readers leave kudos.

0.27% of people leave a comment.

truly, i GET that a lot of people, especially younger people who grew up on youtube and are living on tiktok, see "opening the page and viewing with their eyeballs" engagement in itself. but a) it's not, for fanfiction, that's not how it works; and b) "engagement" does not build a community -- interaction builds a community.

if you like someone's fanfiction, and you want more of that fanfiction, please react to it in some tangible way. leave a kudo. leave a comment. let the writer know that you didn't open it, see the first sentence, and decide it was garbage. let the writer know that you aren't a bot that trawls every webpage for AI content. let the writer know that their work is appreciated.

the point of fandom is to be a community, not a content engine. if people stop feeling like people are being reached with their work, they stop creating work for that fandom and move onto the next. there's a lot to be said for the way binge-model TV is killing fandoms prematurely... but there's a LOT to be said for the way infinite-scrolling consumption is killing fandoms prematurely.

if everyone binges a show on friday and feels weird about reacting to fics posted longer than a week ago/doesn't react to the fics they read at all, that fandom is dying out in about a month, max. even though there are probably a lot of people who would love to discuss it with someone or create more work or finish and post a WIP or whatever. because no actual community is created by consumption alone.

reading a fic is only step one.

reacting to a fic is the crucial step two of the equation.

step three is the fandom proliferating! and you getting more stuff to enjoy!
