Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Check Please! (Webcomic) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Eric "Bitty" Bittle/Jack Zimmermann, Alexei "Tater" Mashkov/Jack Zimmermann Characters: Eric "Bitty" Bittle, Jack Zimmermann, Alexei "Tater" Mashkov, Adam "Holster" Birkholtz, Justin "Ransom" Oluransi, Larissa "Lardo" Duan Additional Tags: In-Universe RPF, Blow Jobs, Light Angst, Established Relationship, Secret Relationship, Relationship Discussions, Takes place early in Year 3, Bitty and Jack aren't yet out to their friends, Potatomann isn't real but the fans want to believe, In-Universe RPF (Jack/Tater), Shower Sex, Comfort, Typical SMH Shenanigans Summary:

“Bitty had to tell Jack about the fic.

He didn’t want to tell Jack about it. Neither the fic in question, nor the small-but-growing “Alexei Mashkov/Jack Zimmermann” tag on AO3 that was rapidly gaining on the existing “Kent Parson/Jack Zimmermann” tag. But he had to, he reasoned, because it would be better for Jack to hear it from Bitty than from Ransom and Holster, who would be totally annoying about it.”

Or, the one where Holster discovers Men's Hockey RPF.

Hi, hello! 👋

So, I'm on chapter 7 (of 12!) of John Rich and The Big Picture, and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has read this work-in-progress and has paid the laugh tax. (You don't actually have to pay it!!!!! THIS IS FREE!!!!!)

Nevertheless, it's a huge help. You've basically taught me how to translate visual humor into comedic prose. That is, you've let me know what works. (The bees joke, for example, was something I almost didn't include because it was too weird.) So, thank you! I'm so close to finishing this novel (hahah before months of revisions lmao) and I could not have done so without your help! Yahoo!

Quick update. ✨

Hi, hello. 👋

So. I've been working on something a tiny bit different—a m/m novel. (Yes, novel. Not a comic. I know.) It's a completely separate story from Check, Please!, but it's got the same humor, pining, and feel-good vibes that make #omgcp what it is.

It’s about John Rich, a 28-year-old cover artist for The New York Review, who’s tasked with drawing the gorgeous but seemingly vapid action star, Tyler Hughes. Problem is, John can’t seem to draw this dude. Then of course, shenanigans.

I've posted the first five chapters on AO3, and I've been updating monthlyish? (Remember how I never had an update schedule for Check, Please! ya...) If you're into funny, feel-good, lighthearted gay romance, do give it a read. Absolutely, no pressure. Just wanted to share what I'm working on that wasn't superheroes or semi-autobio YA.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Check Please! (Webcomic) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Derek "Nursey" Nurse/William "Dex" Poindexter Characters: William "Dex" Poindexter, Derek "Nursey" Nurse, Derek "Nursey" Nurse's Family Additional Tags: Fake/Pretend Relationship, New Year's Eve, First Kiss, Meet the Family, Love Confessions, Getting Together, Fluff, Holidays Summary:

“No,” Dex says, not looking up from his homework, the moment that Nursey bursts through the door of the basement bungalow. The man has at least finally learned to knock first, though he never actually waits for Dex to answer.

“I didn’t even say anything yet,” Nursey pouts.

Dex keeps his eyes fixed firmly on the textbook on his desk, refusing to glance back over his shoulder and see whatever stupid expression Nursey is probably making at him. Nursey has a full arsenal of expressions at his disposal that all seem tailormade to chip away at Dex’s steady resolve. And it’s been getting harder and harder over the years not to let anyone see that, especially Nursey.

“You didn’t have to,” Dex says. “I could hear you psyching yourself up on your way down the stairs.”

Inspired by the red carpet interviews and Chicken Shop Date that launched a thousand shippers.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Red White & Royal Blue - Casey McQuiston Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Alex Claremont-Diaz/Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor Characters: Alex Claremont-Diaz, Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor Additional Tags: Post-Canon, Hurt/Comfort, Sickfic, Domestic Fluff Summary:

“Henry. You’re sick. You barely have a voice, I know every word is hurting you, and I’d bet anything that you feel even worse than you’re letting on. I get that you have a busy day, but you need rest. If you try to do all of that today, you’re just going to get worse. We can get things rescheduled. It’s going to be okay.”

Henry shakes his head a second time, trying to do it more gently. “This is nothing, truly. It’s just a cold. I can pop some paracetamol and be on my way. Trust me, I’ve done appearances feeling way worse, and no one suspected a thing.” – Or, Henry is sick. Alex does his best to convince him it’s okay to let himself be taken care of.

But you can find me on BlueSky here!
