the inherent homoeroticism of "no one gets to kill you but me"

[merge-conflict]

@luvwich I'm stretching the definition of a sentence a little, but the sequence of most ridiculously extra sentences definitely goes to Valentine ranting in the middle of troubleshooting:

<I thought we settled on you being fucking out of your gourd an hour ago.> “I’m inside the fucking gourd. I am the goddamn gourd. This place has some sort of gourd-rotting fungus. Whoever worked here must have done something to this ancient piece of shit. It’s busted. Senile. Fucking cursed."

A small rant I think anyone trying desperately to make something work for several hours and failing miserable can relate to. :3

Alternatively, if we're talking something that I haven't actually published yet, from unhappy Post-Mikoshi recovery:

it sank in so easily she barely felt it until the blood was already welling up into the fabric (she was right, the fabric drank it quickly, hungrily, greedily) and then there was something cruel and awful and foreign in the muscle of her right leg, and she was afraid to pull it out and become strange once more.

To say I'm excited to get the first part of the longfic done so I can go back through this old draft is an understatement. >:3 (sighs) There's just something so fun about writing someone exclusively thinking animal thoughts.

i want to see a contender for the most outrageous sentence you have ever written. please

🙏 I am here to grant your wish but after reviewing contenders I have to know, does outrageous mean: (1) funny? (2) pretentious? (3) an embarrassment from innermost rings of the cut pile? (4) some bizarre collection of words that only make sense in the context of the batshit plot at hand? (5) dealer's choice?

❤️Okay, its Friday, and its humblebrag time! Give me a sentence or paragraph (even a whole fic) that you are particularly proud of! Like, ‘I cant believe I actually came up with those words together’, ‘this is still so good’ proud and share it!

ah thank you for the cute ask fren! i think this paragraph kinda slaps :)

The first rains on Night City after the last summer heatwave bring with them an ancient vengeance. Even unspiritual types feel it, some old god's wrath falling with the fat drops, sizzling on the hot pavement, angry flash floods demanding sacrificial street closures and sandbag altars.

the whole likes/reblogs shit has some like, I Get It We're Trying To Get More Eyes On Our Stuff All The Time nuance to it, but attributing malice or laziness or 'YOU DONT CARE ABOUT ME, YOU HATE ME' to people who only hit like on the work you make is the number one way to make your brain start screaming in pitches only known to black holes and never stop. Don't do it. That is a short slope to hell and brain gremlins the likes of which you have never seen before. Dont assign a Moral Value to likes or assume that you know or understand why people choose to reblog or like (or don't).

15 lines - Goro Takemura Edition

(since I worked so damn long to try and replicate his voice or at least have it consistent, thought I'd do the same game with him as with valentine)

(1) "You must be more careful with your questions, doctor. The truth can be difficult to bear."

(2) “I did not touch him.”

(3) “Perhaps I am not very nice.”

(4) “I think if you agree to help me oppose Yorinobu, I must expect crazy.”

(5) “I had almost forgotten…how good it feels to be whole."

(6) "Sit. Or I will take you to your ripperdoc."

(7) “So long as I have good company, I will not complain.”

(8) "It is not so bad."

(9) “I will draw his attention. He wants very much to kill you."

(10) “You judge me, but you have no right. You act the poor thief, but you were not always so. Your life was comfortable. Perhaps unlikely to advance – but you did not go hungry.”

(11) "Untrue. If all goes well I have little part to play. I wish only to be ready."

(12) "Yes, I remember. Also, I saved your life."

(13) "Do you truly think me so arrogant? That I do not know what your loyalty is worth?”

(14) "Insufferable? Is this how you speak of me?"

(15) “You are so hungry.”

ok bye

you can pay for a lot of things in your own blood and it's not good for you but it feels good to avoid someone else hurting you instead. if you call yourself a loser no one can laugh at you. if you stab yourself in the heart no one else can break it. if you never ask for help you never have to worry about being ignored. if you sacrifice yourself in one giant romantic gesture you never have to worry about everything falling apart because you'll be dead – the perfect strategy.

it's all the perfect strategy until it happens and you're still around and you're paying back interest on the loan you thought would be discharged with your mortality.

Ok I have to know more context for this one: “Don’t you ever fucking speak his name again. I’ll rip this goddamn chip out and kill us both. Do you understand?”

Ahh yes, one of the few moments I have written from when Johnny was still on the Relic and in Val's head and they hate each other

8. "Don't you ever fucking speak his name again. I'll rip this goddamn chip out and kill us both. Do you understand?"

This is from my soulmates au I wrote for silverv weekend over on ao3. Here's a snippet:

She scoffed, “Don't pretend you give a shit about me, Silverhand. I'm just a means to an end to you.” Again she wouldn't look at him. It pissed him off.  “You’re right, I don’t. I give a shit because you’re goin’ to get yourself killed before we fix either of our problems!” He gestured angrily between them. “All for the fuckin’ ‘big leagues!’ How did that turn out for your friend Jack–” In an instant, V turned on him and had him shoved against the wall, arm against his neck. He could easily glitch out of the way, but something about the fire in her eyes had him pinned. “Don’t you ever fucking speak his name again,” V hissed. When he didn’t respond, she leaned more of her weight against his throat. If he was real, it would’ve been harder to breathe. “I’ll rip this goddamn chip out and kill us both. Do you understand?”  Johnny didn’t think he’d ever seen the merc that angry. It was a refreshing change from her constant moping around. It was too easy for him to lean into the pressure of her arm against her neck so that there was little space between their faces and sneer, “Harder.”

POV: You're desperately trying to hide from Adam Smasher in a dark room but then you hear a weird noise and turn to see THIS:

I need a scene with vic and adam where she gets him to purr, please and thank you!! /jk but seriously why is he making that sound??

you say /jk but i see through your lies and will in fact be writing that, she will get his ass to purr!!!

and he makes that sound cos he's happy to see you obviously!! :D

but genuinely i have no fucking clue why he does it 😭 from what i've seen of op's posts about modding him its certain animations that seem to have it attached? in particular (though this is just me being like hmmm) it seems to be animations that have an almost 'investigative' vibe to them - like he's looking at/for something?

here and here are the other two vids they have so far of him purring, and his motions in them give curious cat vibes ngl. he's not beating the purring allegations

though i don't think there's any instance of him making those sounds in-game, and its not something ive heard in his pittance of dialogue either so honestly god knows
