my illiverse au contains rayilli and ray is 100% straight in it because i am SICK of the implication that only bi men could want to date a trans woman

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

once again writing a chapter that's six fics away

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

i'm gonna add it in passing at some point (haven't decided where yet), will definitely be sure to credit and send it to you :D

the series so far... anyways

hi cool person :D

i just (re)found your post about making illi's full name gillian after scully, and i wanted your grace to use it in the au i'm working on. perfectly fine if not, i just wanted to ask!! it's a neat idea and i love mcr and txf so bad i couldnt not lol

~ more-than-words-could-ever-say

OMG YESSSSS!!!! Please send me the link to read it!!!!

I'm so happy that my silly idea has inspired someone to implement that in a fic. I actually thought of not posting it at all, but I'm so glad I did.

If anyone wants to use that idea for fics they are totally welcome to do so with the only condition that they send me the link to read it and credit me somewhere

Let the Gillian "illi" McMillin agenda spread 🫡

gang i need creative inspiration, ask me questions about my illiverse au

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

GUYS I HAVE RECTIFIED MY ERROR I'VE READ MY FIRST BANDOM FIC ARE YALL PROUD OF ME

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

feels illegal being a fanfic writer in the mcr fandom who hasn't read aoaf or uhv or asotm

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

yes i put up a new chapter!! no it isn’t as good as the first two fics!! oh well!!

i’ll write more eventually i just need to work out what happens first...

here starts tyftv, in which frank is having a faith crisis (because i’m so original and creative like that)

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

i put ten livejournal references in the chapter i'm working on, y'all better appreciate me for it

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

currently writing a petekey chapter and jamming in as many livejournal references as i possibly can

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

my frank is definitely very religiously traumatised, which i am finding impossible to write because i myself am extremely religiously traumatised and it's very hard not just to write everything i myself think

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

alright gang idk what else to do with the next fic so i'm js gonna skip ahead and take forever to update the series rip

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

THIS is illi McMillin, if you get me...

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

Up goes the second instalment of my Illiverse AU! I’d really appreciate y’all checking it out if it interests you :D

There’s some exciting new plot points coming into play now... some ships, perhaps, with a special appearance from another band...

[more-than-words-could-ever-say]

An excerpt from "I'm Not Okay" by mars_and_his_phalanges on Ao3.

Illi grabbed Ray by the collar and dragged him out of the room, cackling. Letting go only so that she could slide down the bannister, she went outside onto the front porch, and he followed. They sat on the porch steps, occasionally making quips about school and the weather and any little bit of small talk they could think of. After what was probably the billionth silence of their afternoon, Illi spoke up. “Don’t you ever wonder how much easier our lives would be if we were cool?” Ray thought for a moment, studying her expression. “I mean, I guess so. No doubt it would be easier. Not like it’d ever happen, though.” “It might.” “Yeah, good luck with that one.” “You never know,” Illi shrugged. “I think I could be popular someday. Famous, even.” Ray let out a quiet huff. “Yeah, sure.” “Don’t crush my dreams,” she pouted. “Dude, c’mon,” Ray chuckled. “You like DnD, Audrey Hepburn, Fangoria, Harry Houdini, and croquet. You can’t swim, you can’t dance, and you don’t know karate. Face it, you’re never gonna make it.” Illi slowly pulled her gaze away from where it had been fixed, locking eyes with Ray as she spoke. “I don’t wanna make it. I just wanna–.”

gang i'm realising that i have literally two ways of starting fics and it's either a block of description or three lines of dialogue before setting the scene
