just finished reading the fic like 2 days ago, (within the span of 3 days,, lol,,) and all i can think about is how "love me not" by ravyn lenae basically sums up the whole dynamic between the two of them,,,

guh im so brainrot and excited for the next chapter !!!!

first of all, thank you so much for reading! i noticed whenever people discover 'something about us,' they tend to binge it within a few days which i love haha, considering it's been years in the making. you guys need to slowly let it consume you for years like i have 🙄 /j

second of all, i listened just now and love it, you're so right! i especially love how there are parallels in the lyrics that can be applied to both the dynamic between the reader and schlatt, but also... the dynamic between the reader and ben (albeit, it's only been vaguely touched upon. for now.)

while yes it's still unfinished so it may not super clear right now, the whole story in general is meant to convey the ripples that trauma can have on future relationships, friendships, and yourself, and how "healing" is nonlinear. what i like about the song is that it kinda sounds like you're slipping and stumbling, almost obsessively letting thoughts of the other person swallow you, but internally rejecting it at the same time because vulnerability is y'know. terrifying. this is so similar to what it's like to battle with mental health issues. love for another person is just as difficult to process and accept as it is to love yourself after going through something life-altering.

but uh... it's still a schlatt x reader fic. LOL

so the next chapter is looking REALLY long, but you guys will like it, especially if you've been missing the fluff/romantic tension between these two. it makes me giddy writing it, but it's nowhere close to polished so i apologize for it taking so long to be published!

i'll only drop one major song from the song list for the next chapter, and then disappear into the void for another decade... (i'm really busy with work lately, super sorry tumblr and discord people!!)

a man who treats his cats like that would treat his partner like a queen

you get me. 🤝

people who are genuinely kind and gentle to animals are generally just good people all around, i've noticed.

[nymphomaniaa]

underneath all the brainrot youtube slop with that grumpy "i hate my fans" attitude is a man who baby voices his cats and has smothered them with kisses from cute aggression. think about that while i leave for another six weeks. #canon

[nymphomaniaa]

somewhat of an og something about us reader here! i just recently found out you've updated the fic a few times since i last was active on ao3 like a year ago? so i've been eating these recent chapters UPPP and i LOVE how you portray schlatt obviously because the story is focused on him. but i especially love the way you portray how the reader handles abuse and self harm, it resonates with me so deeply as someone who has survived that kind of thing. the bouts of avoidance, the inner monologue, the sudden flashbacks, EVERYTHING. it's so realistic and i can tell you write with personal experience. your fic is definitely a comfort fic for me so please please i beg KEEP UPDATING!! i'm so emotionally attached it's not even funny anymore. sorry if that's weird 😭 but finishing the recent chapter just has me in shambles omg i'm so emotional right now and i had to share my appreciation

aww honey you're so sweet! first, thank you for supporting the fic for that long, i'm astonished whenever i get comments from people who have been supporters for a year or more because of my infrequent updates. it goes to show that at least a few people out there are as passionate about the work as i am. and yes, since i write with personal experience, it truly means the world to me that bits and pieces of my actual life story are recognized — albeit, through the lens of a schlatt x reader piece of fiction. but seen, nonetheless.

all of this to say that i'm glad my writing could be of comfort and solace to you. writing this fic so far has guided me through a handful of personal issues as well, and to think it could be helping someone else in a similar way is very fulfilling for me. it's not weird at all — if anything, comments like these encourage me to continue updating. not like i have ever intended to stop, anyways!

thank you for your kind words. ♡

[nymphomaniaa]

this is so anxious attachment x avoidant attachment and it's hurting me on a personal level, i am never scrolling through this tag ever again

Schlatt who has never truly loved someone before and a reader who has had her heart broken too many times.

He loves her so much his heart aches with it, a physically weight that he carries in his chest. He wants to reach out to her but everytime he lifts his hands, they tremble. What if she doesn't want him? What if he accidentally hurts her too? Schlatt could never liv with himself if he did that to her, so he stays silent. He carries that weight in his chest and he laughs with her, smiles with her, loves her quietly.

[nymphomaniaa]

adhd brain so efficient that the task(s) that took me a total of two and a half hours to do was put off for nearly a year... anyway, gold star masterlist post is finally up!

i'm intending to maaaybe sort through my AO3 bookmarks and compile them into the gold star list as well, but that's a task for another day... i'd have to reread through all my bookmarks and sort through which ones i actually still like, because a huge heap of works were bookmarked as my ways of showing kudos back when i didn't know how kudos worked haha. i might get started on that tomorrow after work, but we'll see.

also, SAU update. i mentioned this in my discord server but i thought it would be funny to post it here too.

i am a very organized writer, clearly.

heads up — i have finally finished importing all my works from @opalesense into my masterlist (which you can see by opening my pinned post!) this is something i have been holding off for months, despite it not taking that much time to do, so i'm relieved that it's actually done. although i evidently don't write genshin impact content anymore, i think that displaying my past works helps showcase my progress in writing over the years!

the next (and last, for now) blog formatting related task i have left is to organize all my reposted works under the #goldstar tag into one post, so expect to see that within the next two hours or so...

something about us [XIX] "two glass bottles" — an outtake!

summary: you and schlatt clear up some mixed signals and miscommunication about drunkenly sharing a couch together after a party.

warnings: very slight nsfw joke.

notes: for the sake of getting rid of it from my google drive since i officially won't be using it anymore, here's a very short barebones snippet of that aforementioned alternative scene. hope you all are enjoying chapter 20 so far since it was published recently!

You are definitely confused now. Were you misremembering what happened last night? Did it go further than just sleepy cuddles?

“Wait… Schlatt, did we…? Last night, did you and I…?”

Schlatt quickly glances at you while he navigates through the hills and back to the city, but he has to do a double take to catch what you’re implying. “Oh… oh! Oh no, we didn’t— we didn’t fuck. If that’s what you’re thinking. No, no, no, I could never. I would never—“

“Okay, because for a second I thought you were saying you did something to me while I was sleeping and that would’ve been—“

“Absolutely not. No,” Schlatt’s heart sunk at the thought, “No, we just— we just… cuddled. We slept together. Not in a sexual way. What happened was I was falling asleep and Ted decided it would be funny if he put you next to me while you were sleeping. And then I tried to wake you up and ask you if you wanted me to go back to my room or stay on the couch, and you told me to stay. But in hindsight, I should’ve just followed my instincts and left, I mean, neither of us have the right judgments when we’re drunk, right?”

“But Schlatt, I—“

"I know, I might've pushed some kind of boundary, and that's seriously my bad. Like, not only is it unprofessional, but we're not at that point yet, and I genuinely apologize if I made you uncomfortable."

...Yet? Was he intending for something to grow between you?

"It's been eating me up all day," he fidgets with the steering wheel. "The thought of possibly making you uncomfortable with me."

“No, but Schlatt... I liked it. I liked sleeping next to you. It was… comforting. Am I weird for that?”

He thinks about what you said for a moment. You liked being so close with him? You weren't uncomfortable at all? And he was getting in his head about you, like he has been for the past several months?

Schlatt lets out a long, drawn out sigh of relief hearing you say exactly what he hoped to hear. A grin is trying to creep up his face at the mere mention of you liking something he did, something so... intimate. But he ignores the bubbling feeling of joy and excitement in an effort to look cool. Nonchalant.

“No, you’re not weird. I… I liked it too. I liked it a lot."

except i give you guys light angst instead in the real chapter, so insert that here, haha.

The latest chapter of Something About Us put me in a coma I hope you know that. Thank you for feeding us ❤️

LOL i’m sorry! 😭 but i’m glad you awoke from your coma to send me an ask. thank you for reading <3

fun fact: the original ending (and the overarching plot of that chapter in general) was scrapped because it was too awkward and didn’t really feel necessary for me to include, so i took quite a bit of time completely rewriting the entire chapter to make the final version of the ending make more sense.

i considered posting the outtake itself, since i already posted one the other week, but it’s too short to make an entirely separate post for it, so i’ll just summarize it under the cut, since we’re on the topic of chapter 19.

basically, there was originally more description of schlatt being distant and crabby in santa monica (with a full section of the santa monica video in general, similar in depth to the disneyland chapter), but i took it all out completely because i found it redundant to read and it didn’t really add much to the story, like the disneyland chapter did.

then, the griffith stuff stayed largely the same. but the ending was very different.

by the time schlatt and reader are driving home, there isn’t much tension anymore (since the tension mostly took place in santa monica, then was pretty much resolved by the time the group gets to the observatory) so they have an awkward confrontational conversation about sleeping together. it’s a comedic section, and it ends with them just awkwardly walking back inside the house like normal — no hard feelings.

the way i revised the chapter for the final draft makes it so that the tension remains even when the group goes back to san diego, so that it isn’t just glossed over within one chapter like it never happened.

i hope you enjoyed my silly writer’s thought process that you definitely did not ask for haha.

but thank you again for reading ‘something about us,’ and expect chapter 20 before the end of 2024! it is a BEHEMOTH of a chapter since it marks the end of what i call “act II,” so i hope that is apology enough for my slow updates this past year.

i won’t spoil anything, obviously, but if chapter 19 put you in a coma, 20 might just kill you. that’s all i’ll say. AND it gets worse. so. <3

you are so sweet and i am so honored! ♡ i will not explode specifically for you. :)

something about us [XX] "parasite" — a preview!

summary: this snippet includes part of a scene where the reader sets up a photoshoot for a merch drop featuring the lunch club members.

warnings: slightly nsfw joke

notes: FINALLY finished this monster of a chapter! it's really long because it sets up the current "arc" ending and the next one beginning, so it's... kind of a roller coaster of emotions. below is the only part of the chapter that i felt was fluff-ish enough to include as a lighthearted preview, so make sure to buckle in when you read the actual chapter because... oh boy. it's a lot.

Returning from the postal office (where the Lunch Club P.O. box was now up and running in hopes to receive packages from fans in the future, thanks to you, of course), you held the most important package in your arms three weeks before the start of TwitchCon.  Inside this large hunk of cardboard were the finalized versions of the new merch that you had painstakingly worked on throughout the past spring and summer.  It made it past weeks of reviews, tweaks, and packaging delays, and was finally in your possession, ready to be distributed to the boys so they could finally promote a project that had been on the works for months.

In the basement's common area, you spent most of the morning by yourself, working on setting up a photoshoot area for the group using a backdrop screenprinted with a repeating minimalistic pattern of the official Lunch Club logo — courtesy of a manufacturing company Ryan suggested weeks ago.  By the time you finished setting up the studio lights borrowed from Ted, arranged a couple of chairs on the set, and unpacked the box of merch to take a peek inside, most of the group had finished eating brunch upstairs.

Ted was the first to come down, since he was the one with the camera you would use for the shoot, so he was the first one to be spoiled by the surprise.  "Woah," he's taken aback by the set at first, bewildered by how official you made it look despite the very limited supplies you had.  "This looks really professional for only costing, what, like, two hundred bucks?  And my lights?"

"One hundred and eighty bucks, actually, with shipping and taxes," you snarkily reply, placing your hands on your hips with pride.

Ted lets out a halfhearted laugh, then after fiddling with his camera, hands it over to you.  "Take good care of her.  I've had her since the beginning of film school, she's practically my baby."

You wrap the neck strap around your head gently, and offer Ted a thumbs up while looking down at the camera screen, trying to orient yourself to its panel.  "We're all good to go, I think.  If you could bring all the boys down for me, please?"

"Yes, madam," Ted beams, then suddenly runs up the stairs, shouting, "Alright fellas, get all of yer asses down here right now!  We're aboutta' start rootin' and shootin'!"

A distant drawn out "yeehaw" (likely from Charlie) above you makes you roll your eyes.  These boys never ran out of ways to make noise echo throughout the house.

One by one, each of the Lunch Club members step down into the basement with 'oohs' and 'aahs,' until all of them convene in front of you and are now ogling the box behind you.  Methodically, you explain that you would start with getting shots of each member with their respective pieces of merch, then you would get photos of each of them wearing the group merch, then a few group pictures with all of them together: one set with their group merch, and one set with them wearing whatever they chose to wear.  All of these stills would be displayed on a new merch website that had already been prepared in advance by one of Schlatt's web developers he worked with, but you also intended to get some short candid video clips of them just goofing around and chatting with each other that could be used for a video promotion that could go on their channel.

If all went well, they could start promoting their merch exactly one week from now, and by the time TwitchCon rolls around, the manufacturing company should have enough pieces shipped to Ryan to be sold at the Lunch Club booth.

The shoot went as well as expected.  Each member had their turns modelling their own pieces, with the remaining boys being hypemen behind the camera.  As each session went by, you had a difficult time containing your excitement.  Your art and your designs were on official pieces of merchandise that people all over the world had access to.  You were directing a photoshoot, which granted, you had never done before nor had interest in, but for your first time trying it, each member seemed happy with the results when their mini modelling session was over.

Of course, when Schlatt's turn came around, you took the opportunity to get him in certain poses that accentuated his features.  Partly for you to shamelessly stare at his good looks in your own time, but also partly because you knew a certain part of his audience would be more inclined to support the merch drop if he looked overwhelmingly handsome in his own clothes.  If he could take advantage of you being a woman in his Love or Host show, you could take advantage of him being eye candy in clothes you designed.  More money for the group.  Everyone wins, and the score will be even between you two.

"Let's have you lean a little onto that back leg, and put your left thumb in your pocket...  Then just look at Travis behind me...  No, chin a little more to your right.  There you go.  Intense stare, and…" you directed the tall man, as you kneeled on top of a nearby stool to compensate for his height.

"Can you roll up your sleeves a little, like so the hem goes about an inch below your elbow?  Then just do that exact pose again...  Yep, that's it.  No, stop giggling.  You're serious.  You're calm.  You're serious."

"Sorry." You’re unsure what is so funny, but he stifles his laughter, then settles into the same pose as before.

"Okay, then can I maybe get you on the stool?  Yeah, just sit like you normally would.  Push your right knee outwards a little more, then let's get your elbows resting on your knees.  Yep, and then clasp your hands together, and lift your head and look towards Trav, but not too much?  You're trying to showcase your hat, so only let your eyes look up at him, not your entire head.  Chin to the right.  Perfect."

"I feel like you're shooting a fucking porno of me," he tries to contain his laughter.  "It's like you're recreating that one face reveal photo of me looking up at the camera,"

"Just trust the process, J," you roll your eyes as the shutter snaps a few more times when he closes his mouth.  "Here, you wanna look?"

You open the camera's preview gallery and show the rest of the boys first, who burst into a roar of overexaggerated gasps and whistles.

"Holy shit, he's hot!" Charlie moans, pretending to fan off his face.

Schlatt pulls himself off of the stool and meanders towards you, reaching a hand out to ask for the camera.  Once you give it to him, and he clicks through the photos, he raises his eyebrows in approval.  "Holy shit, I am hot."

"You sure are, handsome.  Now get back in that damn chair, we have more porn to shoot," you tease.  He shakes his head, chuckling as the boys keep cheering him on, chittering in excitement for his newfound confidence after seeing himself on camera.

i apologize for the monstrosity of the SAU chapter(s?) i will be posting this month, take it as me trying to make up for the last few months of inactivity and also setting up the next major plot point (which is the chapter after this upcoming one.)

i have been essentially working on two (and a half) chapters at once because this upcoming one is tightly tied to the one afterwards, and i'm trying to make sure all the details are consistent and make sense for the "arc ending" as i like to call it!

thank you for being patient with me and... actually... happy FIVE years of SAU as of a few days ago! JESUS. technically it has only been two years for you readers at home, but considering it was originally written in 2020... it has been five for me personally. i can't believe this project has taken up that much of my life and i'm STILL not finished with it LOL

[nymphomaniaa]

i think i like gale a normal amount and no i don't have a type that is definitely not nerdy and kinda sassy tall men with long dark hair and stubble and kind eyes that light up when talking about niche interests. introverted cat lovers who dabble in literature and can hold a deep conversation without being pretentious? i don't know what you're talking about.

crossing my fingers that tomorrow i can finish writing the last missing section of the next chapter for something about us... i have been brooding in a dilemma of how i want the ending (of the chapter) to go, like i can't choose between leaning more towards angst or more towards fluff slash comfort. regardless, i'll post whichever one gets cut here on this blog just like i did for another snippet previously :)
