Happy STS, Cee! What is your least favorite romantic relationship to write? What tropes do you avoid?

hi hi!! thanks for the ask!! don't mind it being so late:DD

hmmm never thought about that... I usually just consider the tropes I like haha. okay, but, currently, I can't see myself writing love triangles, for example. polyamory, maybe, but not "ooo I love them both...but I must choose...curse you heart!!11!" :vv I prefer to write romances where devotion is at the forefront, and when there isn't any indecision caused by other love interests, if it makes sense? again, polyamory is a different thing, which I might very well do in the future haha

instalove is also not something I can see myself writing. I need that relationship building ok..... that's different from instant attraction, though, which I'm definitely not as opposed to lol. you can find someone you've just met hot! yeah, that happens!

ok and a bit more personalized, I don't necessarily avoid it, but I don't seem to gravitate to writing wholly healthy romances ahaha. like, I need some problematic aspects in there... which I am fully aware of and approach appropriately, but it's just something that's more interesting for me to explore.

WIP Wednesday... Daisuga, Again

[I only post bits I actively worked on for the week. If I don't stop fiddling with the first chapter, though... at this rate, I might as well just post the whole dang thing. Daichi's catching up with Kuroo over dinner here.]

--

“Oh, you know. Surviving. Work’s been tough, but what I’m doing now is really interesting… so I don’t mind the extra hours.” In fact, Daichi preferred the extra hours, but he kept that information private. 

“It’s like… jailbreaking phones and stuff, right?” Kuroo asked, hand moving to cover his own phone protectively and pull it further away from Daichi. “So you can snoop. Narc.”

“No… I’m an investigator. It’s different,” Daichi said and rolled his eyes, defensive because the accusation actually did hit a nerve. His work was interesting in a clinical sense, but in practice, even he had to admit it made him queasy to see all the intimate details of people’s lives that their phones protected. Depending on the case, it felt like a violation.

Stop: Do not think of what is on -your- phone. 

“So it’s police-sanctioned narc-ery, then. Same thing… a rose by any other name...” Kuroo answered, grinning again and clearly gunning for a reaction. 

“We’re quoting Shakespeare now?” Daichi asked, injecting enough condescension into his tone to wilt an entire garden of roses. “Then how about this one... ‘The fool doth think he is wise…’” 

“Damn, Sawamura. Sick burn.” Kuroo said with a sarcastic lilt, smirking and pulling back from the table in a mock defensive gesture.

“I get one in every now and then,” Daichi answered.

Raising his hands in surrender, Kuroo laughed and moved on. “But you’re just… pulling shit off people’s phones?”

“Yes… Well, no, but close. I don’t do that part. I just take the data and do digital analysis and investigation. Connecting the dots. Stuff like that.” 

Kuroo gave him an appraising look and shook his head. “Gotta say… I never thought you’d choose a desk job… Doesn’t seem very… you? You’re more hands-on. ” 

“I mean… I’m still on patrol every day. I’m not an analyst yet. But… it’s a specialized skill, so better job security and a pay bump… Lets me send more money back home, too, so it seemed like a good choice.” That was a half-truth. Had his plan succeeded, it would have let him send more money home to help his mom. She was a single mother with two teenagers at home and two other kids in college right now, and funds were, as always, tight. 

Of course, all that would only have been possible if his plan succeeded. It very spectacularly did not succeed, so he was stuck in an overpriced shoebox in Tokyo, barely able to send the same amount he’d sent when he was still in Miyagi. The plan, after all, had relied on having two incomes in the budget. 

But that was a dangerous train of thought to board, one that would run off the rails very quickly if he indulged it.

my final from last semester that i made into a zine. cooked this one up in a couple hours before the critique (the ink was still wet!), so it's very raw and kind of sloppy but the sentiment is there. i love you trans people of color. we are the backbone of this community 🌟

[ID in ALT] I've made posts before about Talia/Dick co-parenting Damian moments (will never happen but let me dream) and this came to me in a vision. Took me ages to finish for some reason 😭 and then even longer to post
