HEEHEEE IT'S MY FAVOURITE LIL CHALLENGE
i adore atws, but please, do not feel like you have to finish it now or soon. you said you like writing and drawing for fun, and that’s the most important thing ever. do it in your time, take care of yourself. i’m sure inspiration will come back, and we’ll all be here to read it when you’re ready 🩵
thank you sm for this, and everyone in the replies of those posts as well. i wanted to have a writing day today and it was looking dismal when i was trying to force out some streamers, but i'm feeling so much better bouncing around in my Editor doc, having fun again <3
Crowley beamed and gave the wine cap a celebratory toss, only just managing to catch it when it came back down.
“Whatever you say, angel,” he hummed.
Aziraphale made to rise from his chair, but aborted it mid-movement to cast Crowley a withering look.
“Oh, not that again.”
Crowley froze, his hand squeezed too tightly around the bottle cap as he mentally stuttered through what he’d just said. The slip of a pet name caught up to him and he whipped back into a grin.
“What? You are, aren’t you? You work for Guardian, and you’re my guardian angel,” he said breezily, tossing the cap again. “Sitting on my shoulder, kicking your little legs out, wishing I would stop drinking and swearing and sleeping in—”
On his third toss, Aziraphale caught the cap midair. He shoved it into his trouser pocket with a roll of his eyes.
“I’m going for a walk,” he announced, looking twice as exhausted as when they’d arrived.
Do you not have sweet pies in Melbourne??? I swear every single bakery in Brisbane has at least an apple pie for sale and sometimes berry pies? altho I agree that meat pies are more prevalent 🥲
sincerely someone who hates meat pies
ahhhhh i hate apple pie (or any kind of hot/stewed apple) so i always forget that's a thing! not huge on berries either. i'm not so much of a fruit dessert person so i guess that narrows down my options a bit skskskkjk
afraid i haven't read any long fics in quite a while, so i haven't got any recent recs 🥺 currently hunting and gathering around 5-20k for some reason
pie is also savoury here, so the two don't really compare 🤔 but i fuckin LOVE pastry so i bet, if i had the option, i'd enjoy dessert pie more than cake
y’all seem to like my language of flowers tattooed botanist crowley so here he is being a total dirt gremlin. catch him squatting in the garden whispering terrible things to weeds
When do you think you’ll start posting the editor au? It looks like it’s gonna be one of my fav fics im so excited!!!
eeeee i'm so happy you're vibing!! 💗
i really liked being able to post and talk about flawless when it was all completely done, so i think i'm gonna try doing that again 👀 it'll probably be another month or so, but it's waaaay less pressure to post a fic after it's finished 🙏

sobs thank u... i still really want to finish it, i don't think i could handle the guilt if i left it WIP forever, but i appreciate the encouragement a lot. i want to be writing fic and drawing art just for fun, for me, so it is helpful to hear yall want the same
i’m not sure if someone already asked you this, but now that you posted flawless, you’ll finish atws? or you’ll start posting the editor au? so sorry if you answered this question before
yea i wanna focus on atws next because its been sitting there for too long. editor au is still in progress, much longer to go than flawless, and i might not even write it privately until i have the next chapter of atws done
but fuuuuck man, just to vent for a minute
i’m trying so hard and nothing is killing my motivation more than this fic. i can only ever write like 50 words at a time, and it’s pulling teeth for every letter. flow doesn’t exist. even after editing down this scene, or trying to skip past it and write the funner bits that come later. i think my inspiration is just dead for this world and it’s gonna take a playlist or multiple rereads or some other kind of external trigger to get me in the mood for it again.
i’m upset that i’m struggling with this world, but it’s also frustrating that of course it’s the one that’s everyone else’s favourite 🫠
i don’t think it’s demand avoidance because i’ve had so many days where i think about it and get myself amped up like yEAHH gonna write streamers today!! and then i open my doc, fully medicated and all, and everything dies on my fingers.
Dropping the idea for a Gomens Streamer AU AU where they’re both onlyfans girlies who meet up to do a scene together and it’s so electric that they cannot resist each other and eventually it becomes a couples channel directly into your brain 🩷
