and if they want to know

of my past

it's necessary to tell

another lie

or: three lies jace stardiamond tells, after it all

A BIT of a late tumblr post, but essentially: a few nights ago I was possessed and wrote 2.7k of jace lying to other people and also having to emotionally (not) deal with the reality of having been murdered by a guy he may-or-may-not have been very seriously, very romantically, dating.

General tws for domestic abuse, as one might assume, more specifics in notes

irt natm pacrim au:

First of all, I have twenty four docs in my gdrive with titles that start with "natm pacrim". Only two of those are info docs (one general, one specifically about the smith family), and only four have been posted. SO! A lot to, hopefully, come

I am hoping, dreaming, and praying that my (first?) amelia fic will come out in the next week. Ideally by sunday.

The only Set ships are jedtavius and lewark. I genuinely can't decide what else will exist, I had some ideas but the muse pulls me around with every word I write, so no matter what crushes are revealed in fics, don't take them as Set Fact

Jedediah pov fic is now at 23k, and I have at least two scenes to write. So. In case you were wondering how that's going. He just has so much to say and do

[squidbatts]

When Jedediah saw Octavius with just his dress on, tied simply with a rope, he thought it looked like if you could get your hands on it and squeeze, it’d feel real good under your fingers. And Jedediah’s been imagining getting that waist under his fingers all week. or: jedediah has some downtime

Been getting really into natm lately. Take this nightdreaming fantasy nsfw fic and enjoy it please

“I know, I know, It’s just- weird.” In the past few months, Kabru has learned that Laios does have a boundary to what even he can view as “normal”; unfortunately, many of the boundaries he creates are far beyond what most other humans are comfortable with. For him to recognize that something he wants to ask his sister, who’s nearly as strange as him, is weird? It sets Kabru’s teeth on edge. “Just- well- I wondered,” Laios takes a deep breath and rushes out the rest, “Did you ever eat a human?” or: what’s the worst that could come of some bizarre touden conversation?

so i started writing this at the beginning of the year and, well. i think surgery is the most intimate act. that's just me.

“I got this from Ulta.” Porter smudges his finger across Jace's cheekbone, under his eye, over his nose, and repeats on the other side. Jace would narrow his eyes if he didn't think it'd fuck up whatever Porter’s doing and leave him with blush all over his face. “The girl at the counter said my girlfriend was going to love it.” Porter finishes. Jace's hand twitches with the want to check it, to wash it off, or maybe just to blend it out. “She's paid to say that.” Porter hums and wipes his finger on Jace's shirt because he's an asshole. “Does my girlfriend? Like it, that is.” “No.” Jace does kiss him though. It's contradictory training, but Jace has always been bad at making good decisions. or: four times porter gave jace a gift, and one time jace gave him one

i'm taking jace, putting him in the gender machine, and shaking it around. please enjoy this fic where jp are playing with gender but also playing a game where they refuse to talk about it

[squidbatts]

Porter killed Jace. That's where we start, right? It's the first thing that Jace tells every single therapist he sees, and he’s seen a lot of them. The trade-off to not rotting in a prison for the rest of his life is near-constant supervision and having to see therapist after therapist after therapist, ad infinitum. He's more monitored than a Bastion City vault. He's very nearly flattered by it. Or: Jace Stardiamond post-canon, featuring his relationships with Porter, anger, grief, and himself

if you wanted to read my jaceporter zine, The Anatomy Of A Bedroom, but thought "aw man, i just don't like pdfs! i gotta have that good normal webpage content", long no more! the zine is now officially on ao3 as a normal story, which is basically what it was in the first place. enjoy!

🎲 D20 ARTISTS FOR PALESTINE IS BACK! 🇵🇸

We are a collective of artists, writers, and editors in the Dimension 20 fan-community who are offering fundraising commissions for Palestine.

This time, we're switching tacks slightly, and now supporting campaigns under Operation Olive Branch, a grassroots movement helping raise funds for those in Gaza directly. (There are still fundraisers under OOB that help provide medical aid!

HOW IT WORKS:

Check our live spreadsheet for creator slots, availability, and price!

After you’ve chosen a specific creator and made sure they have slots available, donate their required amount to a campaign under Operation Olive Branch, and then fill out the respective request form! (NOTE: There are different forms for artists, writers, and editors, all linked in the spreadsheet.)

Once your screenshot has been verified, your information will be forwarded to your chosen creator, and you will be contacted directly by them via email to sort out any further details!

You can check out our carrd for a more thorough breakdown of the process and all the links above. Thanks for checking this out; even if you can’t donate, a reblog to reach more people is greatly appreciated!

“You're always talking,” Ebria starts, then holds up a hand when Jace starts to say That's ridiculous. “You know what I mean. He talks to you differently, and the way he looks at you…” Jace knows how Porter looks at him; it's a heavy look, one Jace can sometimes feel on his back like a hand pushing down on his spine. It's possessive and a little mean, a smug reminder that every single day of Jace's life belongs to Porter now. That other people notice it, see it, think it's some kind of lovestruck gaze, is- Jace's stomach turns, and he doesn't know if it's the alcohol, the embarrassed fury, or something else. or: those teachers do convince jace to go out drinking with them

once again i have set out to write jaceporter pwp only to publish something that is several thousand words. i hope you all enjoy!

When Jace cranes his neck to look back over Porter, Zara is haloed by light from the bar’s open door, hand on her hip. Her smile is soft and knowing, and Jace averts his eyes from it. “Your ride’s almost here. I already tipped them twenty percent, but please try not to do anything that’ll drop my Flyght rating.” “Of course,” Jace extracts himself from the circle of Porter’s arms to quiet, discontented grumbles. “I’ll make sure he doesn’t embarrass himself.” Porter chuckles, half mean and half something Jace can’t quite identify, “‘Course you will. I’m always good for you, aren’t I, sweetheart?” or: there's more than one way to burn off alcohol

I've been bitten by the jaceporter bug and thus have written more smut. thank you for your patience and understanding as I work through this

[squidbatts]

“And yet you keep coming back,” Porter says, finally putting his book down. His eyes drag over Jace from the shoes up, so inscrutable that it's infuriating. “Do you actually need something or did you come to complain?” “Do you ever listen to anything I say or are you too busy sucking your own dick?” Porter’s face cracks into a sharp smirk, finally dropping the stony act. “Sweetheart, isn't that why I keep you around?”

or: is it still called enemies with benefits when you're doing an evil plot together?

I did a trade with my friend eli ndrmlt and he drew me these Beautiful pin-ups of Jace Stardiamond and Porter Cliffbreaker in exchange for some jaceporter pwp. I.... May have gone a bit overboard. Mind the tags, because this one is a lot, but I'm very happy with it and hope you all enjoy too!

“Drift compatibility, yeah, that’s important,” Larry concedes, “But how about other types of compatibility? Like, for example, the compatibility that’s defined by being able to stand being in the same room as someone else for more than ten minutes without starting a fight.”

or: the seattle shatterdome needs more rangers; unconventional times call for unconventional measures

I watched Pacific Rim for the first time and was consumed by the urge to write Something about jedtavius being drift compatible, so I went into trance and came out with this! Please enjoy!

“This isn’t ideal, huh, girl?” Kristen asks. Eevee makes a flat noise and tilts her head in a way that makes it clear that, if she had the ability, she’d be rolling her eyes. Despite it all, Kristen laughs. No spells, no life, no friends… but she still had her girl. “Okay, I get it. Don’t worry, I’ll figure something out.” or: kristen applebees and her eevee, alone in the forest of the nightmare king

i wrote this kristen drabble for Hoot-Growlithe, the fantasy high pokemon zine! excited to share it!

“We didn’t,” Theobald says then, with a glance to the bedroom door, hushedly continues, “We didn’t kiss at all, and that’s just- inaccurate to your experience, and to my understanding of the situation. I cannot allow that inaccuracy to stand.” To Theobald Gumbar’s credit, his face stays straight all through his whispered insistence. The blush spreading to his ears gives him away, of course, but he very nearly manages to look serious and solemn. Calroy lets his amusement bleed through as he leans closer and lowers his own voice to mirthfully admonish the knight. “Sir Theobald, surely you can imagine a kiss.” or: calroy and theobald hook up. again.

I've been working on a caltheo "PWP" for months, at this point, and it keeps getting longer against my will, so I decided to chop it in half and post in two part. Please enjoy this first half, which is largely just Calroy and Theo making out
