If you can't publish on a consistent schedule, don't promise one. Instead, focus on consistently delivering a great experience when you do publish.

I found this reading an e-mail about content creation and... this felt so personal. :&

I'm always thinkin about how i would like to be more consistent in the updates in my works of Ao3... but i just can't.

I updated (at best) one chater each... two months? [Urgh. I feel kinda embarrassed saying this]

I don't want to say this as an excuse but...

I like to do a good job. I like to think truly in the best scenarios for my characters and develop good archs for them... feel my narrative improving when i read it through.

As an amateur fanfic writer... maybe i should go a bit easy on me (?)

Anyway, i wanted to share this for all ao3 writers who struggle to keep on schedule (now i am noticing i don't like that much how does that sound in something that should be fun).

I know i can be patient with the updates of my favorite fics. (Why i can't give myself that treatment?????)

T.T God, i feel so grateful with my favorites authors who give me my dosis of dopamine each time i can read them. Even if is once a month.

@captain-mj for the Spoils of war update.

09SoapGhost

Jealousy part 1

Soap sits with Archer, Toad and Price at their usual table while Ghost waits at the bar getting their next round. They are celebrating their last successful mission. Soap is listing to the awful dad joke Archer is making as he notice out of the corner of his eye that a woman is approaching Ghost. The small woman with long blond hair and a lot of curves is tapping at Ghost arm. Soap makes a annoyed tsk sound, knowing that the woman is wasting her time and is holding up their next round of drinks. He also noticed feeling of jealous and well he would lie if this woman was not his typ, maybe he can chat her up later. "What your looking at Captain?", Archer ask because Soap was so in his head he didn't noticed that he was ask something. Toad is looking at the bar since Soap made the annoyed sound looks like he wants to say something too but trys not to, if you can go by how hard Toad pressing his lips together. After Archer sees the scene at the bar he is exchanging knowing looks with his partner in crime. Before Soap can ask these two idiots what the are up to, Ghost returns with their drinks and Soap starts wondering why the blonde woman even though she could pick up the Ghost. As if Ghost would go home with some random stranger and this knowledge is for some reason soothing his jealousy.

Since that night a few months ago Soap is noticing that a lot of people try to pick up Ghost, was that always the case and he just never noticed. But to his satisfaction Ghost is rejecting all these advanced and that is when the realisation is hitting him like a truck. He's attracted to Ghost. Soap nearly chocks on his drink. His gripping his scotch glass hard so it doesn't slip out of his hand. How the hell did he end up with a crush on Ghost? Did he ever had crushes for man before and just never noticed? Was he unknown to himself gay all along? No, he liked sex with woman way to much to be gay and well there was his teammate on the schools rugby team back in the day that made his heart race. How could he go that long without noticing he is bi? Someone is kicking him under the table and he looks at Price. "If you grabb the glass any stronger you might break it", the older Captain says. He looking down at his and and is his knuckles are withe from how strong his grip is. He feels how his embarrassing is coloring his ears pink as he relaxes his hand.

A few weeks later they are back again at their usual bar with a sour aura around them and their table. They lost 4 members of the 141 today. Ghost is waiting for his bourbon at the bar as he notice the man approaching him. Normally that would piss him of, but not today. Today he wants to get his brain fucked out. He is looking the dark haired, muscular man up and down and trys to figure out if he will do a good enough job. The bartender is giving him his drink as the stranger is trying his awfull pick up line. He would have turned him down if his voice wouldn't remeber him at a certain scottish Captain. To way out his option Ghost is lifting up his mask to sipp at his drink to make up a his mind. He knows about his attracted to his superior officer for a while now and well some man that is this similar to the man he wants could be a good fuck for the night. "So you always use that awfull pick up lines?", he ask the stranger. While he is chatting with the man he feels Soaps gaze burning in his back.

They all are silently drinking at the table nobody is in the mood for their usual chater and jokes. They lost four good soldiers today.

Soap looks out to where Ghost is still standing at the bar in a conversation with a stranger. At first he thinks Ghost will turn the man down like he he turns down everyone till the man is touching his arm and leaning in to Gjost space. To Soaps horror it looks like Ghost is fine with the stranger beeing in his space. Soap feels how the ugly feeling of jealousy is setting his blood on fire. He can't remeber ever beeing that jealous in his fucking life. He trys to keep it down, Ghost is an adult and can flirt with who ever he wants and he has no right to be jealous about it. When Ghost is touching the other man Soap finishes his drink to not make a sound of disapproval. The rest of the table is switching their looks between Ghost and Soap, most of them have picked up on the crush of the scot and only Price knew about Simons crush on Soap. They worked together long enough for Price to pick it up. The depressing mood at their table slowly gets replaced by a nervousness about what Soap will do. When the stranger is laughing at something Ghost said the jealousy wins over and Soap is approaching the two. When he reaches them he puts his hands on Ghost sites and his head in his shoulder. " He's not available to night", Soap says to the stranger. "And who are you to decide that?", the stranger ask.

When Ghost realises who is pressing into his back he feels his face turning red as he blushes like a fucking teenage girl. Why did Soap came over? He don't hear the words that are beeing said but the longer Soap and Ben are talking the more Ghost blushes. Because fuck jealous Captain John McTravish will be haunting his dreams for weeks to come. Because Soap is resting his head on his shoulder he nearly talking directly in his ear. Ghost feels his blush slowly creeping down his chest and his mouth is getting dry so he just slowly finishes his drink, while Soap trys his best to ruin his one night stand. He should be angry, but in reality he's so turned on right now. God that him trying to hook up with some random guy in a bar would make the scot that jealous didn't even happens in Ghost wildest dreams. In his wildest dreams Soap fucks him bend over his desk and Ghost notice that he's half hard. God something must be wrong with him if jealous Soap does this to him.

Soap smirks satisfied as the stranger is giving up on trying to get Ghost in his bed. But now he realises what he just did. He's also realising how the hole table is looking at them and that they will have questions that he neither can or wants to answer, so the only solution is to leave the bar with Ghost so they can't ask now, he needs time to think. So he is lifting his head to wisper in Ghost ear. "Back to base, Lieutenant thats an order." Before he turns to leave the bar knowing Ghost will follow him.

Ghost brain is comming back online when he feels the weight in his shoulder and Soap wispers directly in his ear: "Back to base, Lieutenant that's an order." And that's it Ghost will never be able to sleep again with out this replaying in his head. When cold is hitting his back because Soap is going away, because of years of military training he follows Soap on Autopilot not even noticing how the rest of the task force is looking at them in utter confusion. If he would some blood vessels in his face would burst because of all the blood trying to make him blush even more, as if that would be possible at this point. He also was never in his life so happy to have most of his face covered.

The rest if the task force is trying to close their jaws that fell on the ground the second Ghost is following Soap out of the bar. "What the fuck just happend?" Archer ask after a few minutes. "I saw it and I still can't believe what I saw", Gaz answers. Meat, Royce, Toad and Scarcrow are still in shock about what they just witnessed. Price is just emptying his glass asking himself if he dies of alcohol poisoning first or if he can drink enough to forget what he just saw so he can pretend it never happend.

Okay here is my master list of Wyler fic recs cause literally two people asked and I cannot control myself.

Psa I have probably read at least 70% of the fics on this tag in ao3 however these are my bestest/favourite ones. most of them are ongoing bc this fandom is hella new but still :) pls check ratings and tags before u read obvi. Also none of these fics are out to hurt u (as far as I’m aware) some of the longer ones might have angst but I’m here for relationship, plot and fluff rather than angst and pain (we go enough of that in the show). Some of the ongoing ones have updates every two/three days? Some haven’t updated since I have read them but most of them are under a week and a half old so I still have hope. There are ordered in shortest to longest in each category 

alright enough chitter chatter, buckle ur seatbelts people here we go!!

Taking Comfort (In Your Arms) - Chater 7 Update

Chapter 7 of "Taking Comfort (In Your Arms)" is dragging a bit so I'm attempting to wrap it up but in the meantime, below is a little snippet for you.

Groaning, Addie shook her head, knowing full well which ones she might have slipped. “I’m so glad it went well, Jo. But you do realize he’s going to Africa with Bucky and DeMarco doesn’t have a tight lip, right? Not to mention they could run into Charlie.” 

“Your brother, your boyfriend and DeMarco along with Buck, Crosby, Biddick, and Blakely?” Josie’s eyes went wide. “Your brother isn’t going to know what hit him. Hopefully the boys are on their best behavior?” 

Addie laughed, sighing, leaning back in her chair. “They’re Charlie’s responsibility for a few days.” 

Grabbing a stack of papers, Addie attempted to put the boys, Africa and the upcoming meeting with her father out of her mind. She buried her in the work sitting on her desk, letting all of the worries go. 

Hoping to have the next chapter up by the weekend. Anything you want to see in upcoming chapters? Send me a DM or leave me a comment below.

RISING MOON UPDATE

Chater twenty-five has arrived, my loves! Enjoy!

[strwbrryk1tkat]

Band Mates Chater 1

author's note:

HI all!!! I just want to preface that this is my first time uploading a piece of writing on tumblr. With every new chapter released I will be updating the Band Mates Soundtrack playlist on spotify so feel free to listen to that while you read!!

First, I just want to say THIS FIRST CHAPTER IS NOT THE BEST. If it was up to me tbh this first chapter would not exist, but unfortunately for all of us, the information in this chapter is relevant. I am working on chapter 2 as we speak.

Second, Everything about this story is completely original. The plot and characters all came to me in a dream (lol). I know the only other work on my acc is a fic (😭😭) and that’s like what ao3 is known for, but i just couldn’t think of which universe and which characters would work best for this so i decided to go rogue

Third and last, for this I just have to save plsss be patient with me updating chapters. I’m in my last like 2/3 weeks of high school and i have A LOT going on. Again, this chapter is super short and feels super rushed but that was the best way for me to provide this context.

THANK YOU AND ENJOY

Part 1

Band Member Needed to fill an open space Guitarist and Lead singer suddenly quit Call or Text: ***-***-****

I snap a picture of the poster hanging up on the corkboard in my local cafe. I never look at this thing but the one time I do it presents me with a fabulous opportunity. I’ve had nothing to do since finals ended 2 weeks ago. I feel like I’ve been wasting my time just going between work, home, and the cafe, so this is perfect. My next session starts in about 10 minutes so as I make my way over I shoot them a quick text.

Hey, saw ur poster. when r auditions?

Time to wait.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

”Just remember what I showed you, the easiest way is to start by memorizing the dates then adding the events.” Jason’s mom hands me my 40 for the session. I honestly feel bad taking it, this kid has not gotten any better, and history is such a hard subject to tutor in. I pull out the phone to check the time when I see a new text.

Whenever ur available

I shoot back.

How about right now.

I get another text with an address. Cool. The location is about 5 minutes from my apartment which is about 10 minutes from Jason’s house.

Be there in 15

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ”No, absolutely not,” the speaker turns to me. “She can’t join.” “Levi, she’s the only one who responded, the least we can do is let her audition.” “We don’t even know if she can sing let alone play guitar.” “That’s the point of the audition, bud.” The guy standing at the keyboard says. They’re talking like I’m not standing in front of them listening to their whole conversation. And who does this ‘Levi’ guy think he is? I’m standing right here with my guitar case. The guy who must be the leader steps forward and stretches out his hand. “Hey, I’m Graham. I play lead guitar but I don’t sing. On keys we have Percy, bass Lewis, and the naysayer on the drums is Levi.” I shake his hand firmly. “Willow.” “Cool, you ready?” Half an hour later I’m sitting in a group with the guys. They’re in a semi circle facing me. “So… Willow?” I nod. “How long have you been a girl?” Lewis asks. “Are you serious?” “No, thought it would be funny.” “Right,” Graham cuts in. “Here’s our rehearsal and show schedule. We want to stay busy this summer, so if you have any outstanding conflicts this might not be the best arrangement for you. It’s really important that you keep a clean image. In a way, you’re the face of our band. You’re the one everyone hears the most and you’re the one most people will be looking at.” Lots of pressure I guess. I’ve kept a clean state, and I believe I’m a nice face to look at. I used to do some modeling before I started college. When my contract expired I decided to not renew it. “I don’t think we have to worry about the image thing, she’s pretty and for bonus points she’s black. 2 minorities.” Percy smiles at me. He sure said it. We’re both black. To provide a better picture of eveyrone in the room, Graham is tall and lanky with long-ish flowy brown hair. Lewis looks just like him. Like seriously identical, if they say they’re not related there’s not a chance I’d believe them. The only different is Lewis has shorter hair. Kind of like the standard for a band leader of this caliber. Percy is talk and black with a shaved head bleached blond. Levi is tall and pretty muscular. I’m the height you’d expect rod a female model. Honestly I never stood out on the runway. I prefer to keep my hair straight with extensions since it’s much easier to manage. After being added to their text chain I have 1 question. “What’s your band name?” “Palin Drome.” Graham responds. Seemingly really proud of this name. “Ok, cool. I’ll see you tomorrow I guess.” I’m officially part of a band with one of the dumbest names I’ve ever heard.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Listen up guys! Our first gig EVER is tomorrow night! We have to lock in. No room for failure today and definitely no room for failure tomorrow.” I’m a little nervous. We just have a cover set for now, we haven’t been playing long enough to figure out our sound. Our set list Red Wine Supernova - Chappell Roan Theatre - Etta Marcus Nothing Matters - Last Dinner Party Everlong - Foo Fighters

I’ve been practicing with these guys for about a month almost every day. They’re all super nice to me except for Levi. I don’t know what’s up with that guy. I’m super nice to him. I say hi and bye and ask questions but he completely ignores me. I asked Percy about it and apparently he’s only like this with me. Great. I try not to think about it but it bugs me so much. What did I do to him? Did I say something weird? Do I looke unapproachable? Is he racist? The last one is the most extreme I know he’s not because he and Percy are practically best friends. Maybe he hates women. Like one of those Reddit incels. But that wouldn’t make any sense either because I’m literally the only person he treats this way. We play through the set so many times I’m worried we’ll start sucking, And that would be terrible because we sound great. I was worried I wouldn’t mesh well with these guys who’d know each other for so long before but I think I fit great.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It’s an hour before the party we’re set to play it is supposed to start and I’m freaking. I’ve been set up warmed up and tuned for about an hour already and I’ve just been waiting for everyone to show up so we can rehearse. I’m not entirely alone though, Levi’s here. He’s been setting up his drum set in complete silence. I said hi when he walked in, still silence. But it’s fine I’m sure I’ll get out of something To help with the nerves I decide to take a shot, or 2. Instantly feel better. I absolutely despise the taste of vodka but I love the way I feel after it. I offer Levi a shot and surprisingly he acknowledges me, but just for a second to take the drink from my hand. I feel great. I’m pumped and ready. The set we play is absolutely perfect. I’m elated. So naturally, I start to party. I’m throwing back drinks when all of a sudden I feel this weird sense of dread. I feel terrible, like something’s wrong that I need to sort out. Then I realize, this bullshit with Levi. I spot him across the room talking up some girls. When we make I contact I make a beeline for him dragging him in to the nearest room and shutting the door behind me. Before he can open his mouth to protest I start. “I need to ask you something extremely important.” No response, great. “But seriously I need an answer.” “Fine.” “Why do you hate me?” He looks at me with a confused look. “I don’t hate you Willow.” “Okay, then why are you so weird to me?” Oh jeez, and now I’m crying. “I don’t know.” What a stupid answer. He knows exactly why he treats me the way he does. “You hate me.” I’m drunk and sobbing to this guy who’s opinion of me doesn’t matter. “No, I don’t.” “You do.” “I don’t, Willow. I have to go.” And he leaves. He leaves! What the fuck. He leaves me sobbing in some random guys bedroom in some random guys house. He’s such a dick.

Notes: Ty for reading! pls give likes if you enjoyed it and feel free to add any suggestions you’d like to see!

Mystic Forest Update

Read "Chater 45: Ooze Heist" here!

“I finally got my rebuilt mouser working again and I’ve been working on reprogramming it so it can follow his friends without my camera feed being detected. April helped me with the code. “

Leo squinted. “Why?”

“So I can scout out his lab.” 

“... Why?”

“Well…” He paused, realizing this sounded bad. “We’ve been so focused on the Yoroi Ketsueki lately that we’ve let our other enemies coast under the radar.”

He pulled up a screen on his computer to show Leo, who leaned over to rest his head on Donnie’s shoulder as he looked. It was pictures of the different mutants they had tagged in the woods. They grayed out one by one. 

“A bunch of the big mutants I’ve cataloged have disappeared without a trace,” Donnie said. “I haven’t gotten a signal from any of these guys in weeks.”

“Maybe they got killed?” Leo suggested.

“If that was the case, I’d still get a ping from the trackers where their body is. But their trackers have been disabled all together. I have a suspicion Stockman is involved.” 

“And your plan is to… spy on him?”

“Precisely.  He’d never expect one of his own mousers to be compromised.” He gave a smug smile.

Buuuuut.... THAT scene from the series has got to be a lot, because I started with bis and pieces of scenes that formed in my mind and made a chapter based on them. So here's the list (spoiler free)

Joaquin's playlist and SamBucky Banter in chapter one

rain scene from chapter 3

apartment scene from chapter 4

alaska scene from chapter five

the entire flashback scene from chapter six

ending of chapter seven

and the entire chapter eight

there is also an entire scene from upcoming chaters and I'll update the list later but overall writing this was an experience, as soon as I'm done with my semester exams, (June 9, hopefully) I'm coming back for this, pinky swear.

also, you can read the series right here - The One That Got Away

Dying Light: Monsters, We.

a fan fiction

In which Zofia finds herself surrounded by clowns and Aiden looks for a familiar face in dusty old windows.

Chapter 12: Going Nowhere Fast

>> Read on Ao3 <<

It hadn’t taken long until Hakon’s home began to feel a little too much like a box.

Its walls and windows creaked warnings at her. Warnings about how they’d trap her here forever, while the door at the far end puffed itself up to make itself look all sturdy and locked and Yeah, you’re staying.

Zofia knew all of that to be bollocks, of course. Nonsense.

The walls were wood, not concrete. The windows were, well, windows. And the door wasn’t solid metal that would only negotiate with the right keycards.

Her nerves cared little for reason though; they were stretched taut enough that one more tweak would snap them and then there’d be blood. Who’d blame her though? It had been an eventful day.

And the hope?

That ever-treacherous thing?

It wasn’t helping. Not one bit. It distracted her, got her thoughts to run off willy-nilly into a direction they had no business running off to. Namely forward, to a tomorrow’s tomorrow.

Zofia scowled. She had no use for hope. It ought to go play with someone else. Like Crane, for instance, who’d not once stopped badgering Hakon about those inhibitors and those biomarkers and when and how and what and what if he was right and you can finally unclench your jaw and give up your tension headache?

“Thanks,” Aiden said all of a sudden, stopping her short from drowning hope in a bucket filled with all her lost dreams.

Zofia ignored him. Not for long though, mind you. Only until she’d finished repacking their medical supplies and herded all her thoughts together. Then she looked up.

He regarded her with a steady, near-icy blue stare, though his head was slightly bowed. His entire posture hunched like he’d fallen in on himself or tried to make himself appear smaller; to tell the world he was not a threat.

Aiden had been like that the entire time she’d bandaged his bite, and while the young Pilgrim hadn’t exactly carried himself full of brash confidence prior, he also hadn’t been timid.

This? This was timid-adjacent.

Zofia decided it was the scars’ fault.

He folded his arms when she looked at them and bunched them right up to his chest. Yes. Must have been the scars. The bruises. All of what he currently couldn’t cover up because his shirt was in ribbons. They weighed on him.
