CEV <3 thank you so much for sticking this in my ask box :)

I've done a part 1 here, and a part 2 here.

Now for part 3 - reader beware, these are not for the youngins and faint-hearted

Tulips - Eustass Kid x F! Reader, sexy pollen trope makes my brain go brrrr. I like that this came out both sweet and cocky, and the idea of going feral with Kid out in the open like that just DOES something to meeeeeeeeeeeeee.

2. Really Really - Virgin Eustass Kid x F! Reader, man oh man oh MAN. The idea of Thee Captain Kid still being a virgin is so hot to think about. I need him expeditiously. I'll teach him everything he'll ever need to know. YEOW.

3. Just the Tip - Eustass Kid x F! Reader, and yes its just like the name implies. Something about him just makes my brain melt, on god. And the idea of him being a HUGE FUCKING BRAT just to hold it over you is sdjaskdjsalkdjaksjfekjgkldjfiajsfiasja wsjdasjl aks jflkadjflkajfaiwr jwa. I need him CARNALLY.

Ok gonna take a step back and show some others some love cause I can actually write other characters - I just have my preferences.

4. Accidental walk-in - multi characters x F! Reader, seperately for Kid, Sanji, and Zoro, these were fun little drabbles to write for what-if scenarios. Quite tasty imho. Thinking of doing another set but haven't quite decided on the next 3 characters. TBD ig

5. All good things to those who wait - Charlotte Katakuri x F! Reader, size kink fun times! I def don't show this man enough of my sweet lovin. I need to change that. I'd 10000% fuck with him. Gimme that glazed icing, papi.

Sorry I know you might have wanted some Law and ISTG I thought the accidental walk-in post had him. imsosorry. But you can find all my Law fics here !

I was also sent this ask by @freesidexjunkie and @lemonsrosesandlavender so thank you all for this! <3

Beauty Like A Raging Flame - Mass Effect - Zaeed Massani/Female Shepard - Rated Explicit - Age Difference, Smut, Blood and Gore, Trauma, Hurt/Comfort

The only reason Zaeed Massani joined the mission against the Collectors was for the credits. A nice stack of 'em, given by one of the biggest terrorist organizations in the galaxy. But there was a complication: Commander Jane Shepard. She wasn't the perfect soldier he thought she was. The same flame that burned in him was in her eyes and it ignited him.

2. A Shimmer of Gold - Andromeda Six - Damon Reznor/f!Traveler - Rated Teen - Minor Injuries, Blood, Childhood Trauma, Anxiety

Cursa brings up some old wounds... and some new ones.

3. A Divine Dream - Baldur's Gate 3 - Rolan/Dammon - Rated Teen - Mild Language, Banter, Ballroom Dancing, Post- Game

An invitation to a Grand Ball. A returning hero. And the man who'd gotten away.

4. Finding Peace - Mass Effect - Jeff "Joker" Moreau/Kaidan Alenko - Rated Mature - Graphic Depictions of Violence, Sexual Tension, Friends to Lovers, Cooking, Citadel DLC

“Really, Joker? Rats?” “The ones that you can make your pets are fine, they’re domesticated, but street rats? Nope. Won’t do that. We had ones as big as cats on Tiptree and they are no joke.” “I’ll save you from the rats, Jeff. I promise.” ~~~ Playful banter turns into something much spicier.

5. Better Judgment - Baldur's Gate 3 - Rolan/f!Tav - Rated Mature - Anxiety, Sexual Tension, Ceremorphosis, Mild Gore, Minor Character Death, Spoilers for Act 3, Blood and Gore, Tieflings

Lorroakan was dead. Now came the mortifying ordeal of thanking his savior. Again.

And because I was sent this three times, I'll do one more as an extra.

6. You're Beautiful - Mass Effect - Jeff "Joker" Moreau/Female Shepard - Rated Explicit - Canon Disabled Character, Body Worship, Friends to Lovers, Badly Recited Poetry

"There was an almost unspoken understanding between them. As if she knew where his thoughts had strayed and was trying to prove him wrong about so many things, the first and foremost being what he thought of himself. Or mainly, what he saw when he looked in a mirror." Jeff Moreau gets a lesson in body worship from the woman he loves.

First off... just tickled to receive this in the first place. Absolutely delightful. My thanks to you!

These are all in the Good Omens fandom. I'm BraveLight on AO3.

Terminus - (T) 37,500: Astronaut / Mission Controller Human AU Crowley has devoted his entire life to a mission no one else cares about. Aziraphale is a reluctant astronaut who has spent nearly 100 years in space. As the two of them work together in an attempt to get Aziraphale home safe, they find a strong bond forming between them. This has a bit of suspense but overall, it's a fluffy story that focuses heavily on the relationship as it builds between Crowley and Aziraphale.

Unfallen - (T) 56,051: Alternate ending for Season 1 (written before Season 2 aired) When Heaven realizes that the archangel Raphael is required to start Armageddon, they scramble to locate and restore Crowley to his former angelic status. When Crowley has no interest in playing the part in question, his memories of the fall and all that came after are wiped. Now Aziraphale must come to terms with the love he was never able to express and his anger against what was done while he tries desperately to keep Raphael safe. Deep down, this is an exploration of their relationship as we knew it in Season 1 only their situation is more dire and they re forced to actually talk about stuff.

Some Version of You - (T) 20.424: Post Season 2, angsty fix-it When Aziraphale loses control of his Supreme Archangel powers, duplicates of Crowley from different points throughout their history begin to spring into existence. Worse yet, if the duplicates don't survive, Crowley will lose the memory that they came from. If they can't find a way to fix it, their relationship may never recover. This ends hopeful, but it goes some places before it gets there. I was deep in my Season 2 sads when I wrote this one. They do actually talk and are forced by the circumstances to really listen to each other for once.

Till the Hurting is Done - (T) 23,325: Post Season 2, this is actually a series all the current entries are complete, but the series is ongoing. When the pain of losing Aziraphale gets to be too much, Crowley takes a leaf out of Jim's book and decides to get some distance from his pesky memories. Each entry stands alone as a small story about the goings on in this universe. This was supposed to be a single entry, but writing a Crowley who isn't heartbroken or pining, but is still fundamentally very broken ended up being so much fun that I keep adding on. Each entry is it's own small story, but there is an overarching story being told.

As You Are - (T) 3,940: A demon and an angel admitting how they really feel for each other A short little exploration of feelings of insecurities in the post season 1 relationship and how Crowley and Aziraphale work to reassure each other, each in their own way. This was also written prior to Season 2. Pure fluff. I do love making these two talk through stuff.

Bunny-senpai!!! 💕

I answered an ask similar to this one last year in March and I don't think my answers have changed...

I rewrote each blurb haha, so it's not an exact copy-paste from before.

1 “It’s No Secret” - Rated M, High School AU, Multi-chapter, Incomplete. Hinata returns to Konoha after 5 years studying abroad in the Moon Kingdom. She just wants to enjoy her last year of high school as a normal girl, but blossoming love forces her to confront her future. - My top fave. Back then, I wrote this like I was possessed. This story consumed my mind, and I was posting chapters every 1 or 2 weeks. I'm amazed at myself from back then. No, it's not my technically best writing, but I was having so much fun thinking up all kinds of scenes!!! Oh, to be a fanfic writing newbie all over again. Major love to everyone who's read this flirty teenage shenanigans mess and enjoyed it!!! One day I will write part two 🥺

2 “Nightdreams” - Rated E, Canon-Divergent AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. Naruto and Hinata find comfort in each other after the war. - This fic idea came to me sometime after I read agitosgirl's "A Special Friend," and I wanted Moooooore!!! I wanted more of this hurt/comfort dynamic between NaruHina!!!! So bam, the fic almost wrote itself, it flowed so easily (except for when it didn't). I'm so happy that people reread this fic, and then tell me that they're rereading it :D. Once in awhile I reread it, too, and think, oh, I should fix that sentence, or whatever loll, but I don't. I kind of think it's nice to leave it as it is, imperfect in little ways to bother me. Please read this fic and recognize that I was copying Katarinahime's writing techniques throughout.

3 “Awkward Jocks” - Rated G, 1990s High School AU, Multi-chapter, Complete. She knows that if he were to ever ask her out, she would accept in a heartbeat. After all, he’s the star quarterback and basketball player. Plus, she’s liked him since…forever. But when her home phone rings, and he’s on the other line, she hangs up. - It's interesting to me that even after all the fics I've written over the years, it's a few of my oldest fics that take the top 3. I guess I really have been trying to write for myself since the start. This one is based off of my ex-coworker's love story. Even though I don't work with her anymore, I still think of her as my role model for good leadership. When you read this, I hope you can feel how much I love her!

4 “About You” - Rated G, 1970s High School AU, One-shot. A summer job at the Dole pineapple cannery, graveyard shift 10 PM to 6 AM. A long bus ride into and out of town. Two teens, shy beside each other. - This is my most personal fanfic. Based on stories my parents told me and stories I found online from people of their generation, I tried to dive into their time using NaruHina. Ever since I was inspired to write after reading emmykay's "Torch Song," I had wanted to write a fic with Japanese-Hawaiian pidgin dialogue. This fic is close to my heart, but it's not higher on the list because there are inaccurate details that bother me 😅. I'm thinking of writing a fic about my great grandparents' generation one day, I've done a ton of research for it! Anyway, I'm so happy that others love this fanfic, too.

5 “Matcha” from “Shared Vows” - Rated T, Canon-Compliant, One-shot. Naruto calls Hiashi “father” for the first time. - According to my previous blurb, I picked this one because I loved how I structured it, I thought I wrote it really well. I also loved the notion of Naruto finding his own family. On deeper reflection, I think I also picked this one over "Finally Home" because I have a not-so-secret agenda for reconciliation between Hinata and Hiashi, fed by my own family's dynamic with my dad.

If I were to recommend any one of these for someone to read, I'd say they should start with Nightdreams or Matcha as an intro to some of my work since canon universe fanfic is always easier to digest.

Thank you so much @senualothbrok for the ask!! let's see what I can come up with here...

Now, I am gonna preface this by saying that I LOVE The Weave and the Vines, but I don't feel super cozy about sharing it in the state it's currently in as it's going through a lot of edits and adjustments currently. That being said, It's a project I am so deeply proud of and passionate about. It has had a huge impact on me as a person and writer. If you would like to explore it, please do. I am working on changing how I posted it so parts 1-2 are here while the rest are listed as individual works which can be found on my ao3! So, if you explore this one, please be gentle and know that it's in a transition phase, and is in the process of getting a lot of love. It's based on my main OC, Sagora and her journey since being captured by the Ilithids, and how her and Gale fell in love. Two broken souls finding each other in their darkest times, and shining their light on one another.

Somewhere - Written for @sorceresssundries! This was a prompt based on the song "Somewhere Only We Know," sung by Lily Allen. Gale is in his advanced years, and lonely after Tav's passing some time ago. He returns to the Astral Sea that he once took Tav, and has created a version of them within the illusion for him to visit. He takes comfort in the illusion, but one day, it becomes more than a small visit.

Lies in the Mirror - This little treato is a soft, tender, SFW piece where reader-insert Tav is dealing with some body dysphoria, and Gale is there to comfort them. A bit raw, real, and comforting piece. It's small, but has a huge impact on me personally.

I Wanted to be Angry - This is a Sagora x Gale AU where Gale ascends to Godhood. If you have read The Weave and the Vines, you will know that him doing so would absolutely break her. This is a painful one-shot that explores how she succumbs to her heartbreak, and how Astarion and the other companions break the news to God!Gale during their gathering in the months following the defeat of the Netherbrain. This one made *me* cry so...have a tissue handly. Just in case.

An Unexpected Valentine - This was written for a Discord Galentine's event back in February! It's a one-shot Isekai fic that follows Ilarah, a depressed and divorced woman who works for a shitty boss, and self-soothes by playing BG3 and drinking too much whiskey. One stormy night, a portal appears, and a strange man appears in her apartment...but he's certainly no stranger. I hope you like these!! I will let you know that in light of the recent AI theft issues, I have my fics set to RESTRICTED. If this is an issue for you, and you genuinely want to read them but can't, please message me. I'll be happy to assist you. <3

Thank youuuu <3

1.A Work Etiquette Faux Pas

The start of my Hatford Family Values series. I love writing the Hatfords as like a wildly supportive and overly doting family for Neil that he is LARGELY unaware of. Like he knows they support him and care for him, he is not aware that they are banned from quite a number of pubs throughout the isles for getting overly enthusiastic in their cheering for his games.

2. Better than Imagined

I just like writing Andrew being all smitten and Neil still managing to be respectful. Also my first toe dip into AFTG fandom so it holds a special place in my heart.

3. Fluent Freshman (Rough Draft)

Gotta say I'm quite proud of how far FF has gone considering this was the tag I put on the initial idea post.

4. I'll Take Care Of You

Mind the tags but Neil's time in the nest and his lack of memory of it is something that has....so much angst potential.

5. It's Just You and Me, Just Us, And Y(our) Friend Kevin

Still my fav thing I wrote.

Thanks for the tag, @turanga4 ❤️

When you get this, reply with your 5 favourite fics that you've written. Then pass it on to five other writers. Spread some self love.

My favourite fics are some of my popular ones and I talk about them all the time, so I am going to showcase the little known ones I have soft spots for.

Ariadne - Cho/Harry, canon compliant. Set in OOTP.

When I was rereading OOTP, I was utterly fascinated by the mess that is Cho/Harry. (The messier a relationship, the more I am interested in it). Grief propels this teenage relationship, and there is a certain morbid quality to Cho's attraction to Harry in OOTP. It's her need to be as close to, or have closure to her feelings about Cedric that she processes via her attraction to Harry. And that eroticisation of grief is incredibly - true to life and deserves exploration. This was my attempt to explore that using the myth of Ariadne and the Minotaur to add a surreal quality to Cho's inner life.

Purple Haze - Ron/Hermione, canon compliant.

This bi4bi Romione was written for @thethreebroomsticksficfest Pride fest! The envy/attraction paradigm is a pretty common experience for queer kids - do I want to be them or do I want them? and I wanted to take some really pivotal Romione moments in canon and offer a different interpretation for the potent jealousy both characters display at different points in the series. I actually remember struggling with the Fleur/Hermione scene in the beginning, and I remember hashing it out with @artemisia-black who was such a lovely sounding board for it!

Also, I was pretty daunted at writing Ron - a character I think I understand well, but cannot, for the life of me, write his voice. I still feel the choices I made for his POV is a style I am comfortable writing rather than something that actually suits him, but I'll get better I suppose.

Breathe the Air of Elsewhere Places - Asexual Charlie.

Also written for the @thethreebroomsticksficfest ❤️ As a 31-year-old queer woman who keeps getting asked when I plan to marry etc, I wanted to push back against privately, in my fanfiction world, to heteronormative ideas of happiness. Charlie of this fic is very comfortable with who he is, but is also looking for a home - however that might look like. I have also had a queerplatonic dynamic in the past, and wanted to pay a little tribute to thr relationship which has profoundly changed me (as it would change Charlie). I directly lifted - "I believe in serendipity when I'm with you" from there. Anyway, found family tropes for life.

October - Gen.

Three drabbles written for the Halloween celebrations at TTB. One focuses on Barty Crouch Jnr, one focuses on Ginny and one on Snape. I am particularly proud of "Disappointing Fathers" which was my attempt to get into BCJ's head.

Death, a Thief, an Old Friend - Harry & Hermione.

Using oppositional sides of thematic narrative which Harry and Hermione occupy with regard to faith/death to explore their friendship. Inspired by @bluethepineapple who said this: "Hermione serves as Harry's antithesis on the Death theme dripping through the books. When it comes to symbols of Death, it is Harry and Hermione who are in conversation with each other, and this conversation is series wide. The Grim (Harry responds to this with humour, avoidance) while Hermione fights the idea that it is an omen. She represents the fight for life, and fear of unknown that comes with Death. The story repeats this symbol with the Veil in OOTP, and then again, the grave and Resurrection Stone in DH."

Oh boy let’s go. This will be hard. I am not doing these ranked at all, just doing them in order of oldest to newest.

First of is How to Fowl a Bat! It’s a Batman x Artemis Fowl crossover over where Artemis hacks into the Bat Computer to protect the People and then gets catapulted into the world of Vigilantes and Superheroes. (Not so unlike he got dragged into the world of the fae and dwarves.) It was my first ever fanfic period so it holds a special place in my heart.

Next is Formula for a Crime Scene! It’s a DPxDCxArtemis Fowl fic where Danny and Artemis get forced to go to Gotham, for entirely applicable reasons, and attend Gotham Academy with Damian Wayne. The Superhero, Ex-Con, and Vigilante of course clash and it’s very fun. It’s also a crackship fic. It was thought up of at 3 am by Ham and I when I was discussing How to Fowl a Bat and is easily my most gremlin (hehe) fic.

Third is The Rebirth of Tim Drake. It’s a DPxDC, with a Halfa!Tim Drake twist. Basically plopping this boy in another state to confront his trauma, grow as a hero, and develop new relationships. It is, of course, a Dead Tired ship fic as well. This is just a fic I genuinely enjoy. I’m enjoying the way the plot is evolving so much.

My fourth is Under Guiding Star-Lit Sky, We Will Learn How to Say Goodbye. It’s a DPxDC Spiritfarer Danny AU Fic. Danny became a the next Spiritfarer after Stella by Clockwork’s fucking around is forced to learn how to properly grieve the two families he loved and loss in his (half) life. It was started during a Spiritfarer hyperfixation and honestly, I think it’s a fanfic a lot of DPxDC readers will appreciate in a “oh I’m heartbroken but also happy” kind of way.

My last one also hit me during a hyperfixation and it’s Now We’re Stuck Here to Decay. It’s a Batman x FNAF Security Breach fic. (With a dash of Superman in the form of Clark and Jon.) It’s great. Some of the Bat boys, Cass, and Jon go to the Mega Pizzaplex only for Tim to get kidnapped, Damian to get murdered, and everyone’s else to get traumatized. Not that Tim and Damian aren’t traumatized either of course. Anyways, it’s my only Dead Dove fic which is an interesting exploration into the world of those fics.

Now to figure out who else’s asks to invade. I probably won’t get up to five. XD

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMAndie! I can't believe you've done this. Well, I did one version of this where I talked about my pretty much all my fics - however, this will go a little more detailed with other things I've done :)

Captain Kid's Fiery Passion - !Yandere Kid. I really enjoyed exploring a darker, crueler Kid that would take reader with no hesitation. I know I only scratched the surface of 'dark fic' with this one, but part of me is entirely too hung up on Kid being an actual cinnamon roll to his beloved that I can't really imagine him being mean mean. That doesn't mean the inspiration isn't there. I have plenty of questionable scenarios I'd like to write out, and my only fear is accidentally triggering myself XD

Spoiling Killer - this is my guilty pleasure. Subjecting my comfort characters to simple pleasures. I can't help writing rottingly fluffy stuff. It's my nature. And I'll do it again too. I won't stop until every crew member is given the pampering they deserve.

Meet the Kid Pirates series - Heat the HR Director and emotional support human! - We know SO LITTLE about this crew and their roles so I decided to make up roles and titles. IF we ever get canonized information, I will update these. However, this was meant to just be fun head canonning :) I was going to do every crew member but after...THAT...chapter, I was too depressed to continue. Still kinda am. BUT FRET NOT - I DO INTEND TO FINISH THIS! and also do the Straw Hats section. In time in time.

Ok, I know I said I was gonna limit this to the drabbles, BUT I JUST REMEMBERED, I also have a WIP book that's part of the What's the Magic Word? universe. Rowena's Future Vision! This is gonna be composed of just drabbles, thoughts, and ramblings of things I wanna see for my ship. Nothing is canonized until its written in the official book(s). This is my sacred space for adding more to Rowena's lore, her relationships with Kid and the world around them. It can kiiiinda be spoilery if you're not caught up to the main fic. Inspired by @abysscronica 's standalone fic "Emperors (dad!Kid x mom!Reader)" which is SOFCKING GOOD but also gave me the courage to write beyond my main fic and explore other themes and tropes that would not otherwise fit in WTMW? NGL I'm inspired to do a Stampede book too cause my mind literally cannot shutthefuckup about Kid and Rowena and making Kid stressed about showing off that he's a better Captain than Luffy, but I have too much on my plate already. I hope that's not stepping on your toes Abyss!!!!!

Ending on a collaborative note, it was a DELIGHT AND HONOR to host this collection of stories for Halloween 2023 with some of my dear moots. SUPER SECRET HALLOWEEN PROJECT was so much fun from conception to execution. I had so much fun envisioning the theme, and hearing from my friends how much they enjoyed being able to do something low-pressure and just for funsies. Plus being able to include fandom by voting on the best costume was really cool - and I'll take any excuse to commission @yamiyamiart ;) Shoutout to my crew: @quinloki @zoros-sheath @sanjis-all-blue @writing-yarn-goblin @icy-spicy @mewiyev @bulle-d-bulliver @leakyweep

Oh thank you so much for this ask! But this is so hard to say, which is why these have accumulated in my ask box for ages xD

I think for my absolute fav, as seen in my header gif, I'll still have to say Andromaquynh "In Your Stead", or the Just You And Me series it's part of! It might not be my longest fic but it is one of my longfics and the one I just, idk, put the most heart into? I worked a lot on that one and it's still very dear to me <3

main fic 30k M, series 50k T-E

For places 2-5 it gets way harder to decide! I guess I'll have to cheat and look through which fics I've tagged 'author's favorite' xD

Ohh I definitely adore my Star Trek University AU, it's basically my time at uni except Better and Queerer? xD

It's technically unfinished but it doesn't have a cliffhanger or anything and you can read them as standalones, idk whether I'll ever get back to actually writing for it tho I do have some small drafts and ideas

10k rated T-E, Milippa and KiraDax(Kahn)

And another Star Trek fic comes to mind, I haven't actually reread it in ages and don't remember it well but I remember that I really loved it back in '21!

Milippa, 10k, rated T, no warnings

Oh, and back to Andromaquynh, also a University AU and I think my longest ever fic even when counting series?

50k, rated T, no warnings

Ohhh and then there's my first ever GM fic! There's just something about the first fics I write when getting into a new fandom, especially when I write them right after watching the film they're for for the first time, they always have a special place in my heart!

Floreleine, 7k words, starts rated T and has a skippable E-rated part

@dropthedemiurge tagged me in this, and since I do love me a fun tag game, I have no reason to refuse! I did purge my ao3 recently so I don't have a whole lot of options, but here we go~!

Luca Knows [Vincenzo, LucaxVincenzo, fic series] I am cheating right out the gate, because this is not a fic but a series of oneshots that I've written for the kdrama Vincenzo, and I love every single one of the six installments! This series starts out Mature, then dives into dead dove and veers into religious trauma - all with a hearty serving of horniness and smut! "It's an interesting exploration of what kind of show Vincenzo might have been if it had leaned in a grittier, bloodier direction." is one of my all time favourite comments that I am proud of getting, especially considering they torture people in canon. I wholly expect I'll eventually write more for this series - I have notes for at least 2 more oneshots!

The Look [My Personal Weatherman, MizukixYok, oneshot] This came about thanks to the lovely @candidamay! A certain picture that I came across thanks to her was very inspiring, and then I had a great time brainstorming a pairing that would fit the dynamic of the picture - and we settled on Mizuki and Yoh as the perfect couple with just the right combination of power dynamics, horniness and kink. It's sweet, unapologetic smut served with feels and a pinch of food porn. (The picture is in the fanfic on ao3. Just click the title to satisfy your curiosity, my fellow heathen.)

Moth to Flame [Kinnporsche, Gen, KinnxPorsche, oneshot] When inspiration hits, it hits hard. This time the idea of pyromanic Porsche hit me over the head and left me no choice but to pour this oneshot out onto the digital paper. Something about a young Porsche entranced by the heat of a bright flame really speaks to me - and then the idea of that same Porsche in a tiny restaurant kitchen spoke to me some more, and it has since become the first part of a series of fics. So far there's only two of them, but as always I have ideas.

Impulse Control [Kinnporsche, KinnxPorsche, oneshot] Smut! This is one of those that I started writing, forgot about - and then completed 2 years later. My story outline was intro/smut/smut/smut/smut/outro (with smut) which should tell you all you need to know about it! Porsche is the delightful little shit that we all love, and Kinn tries his very best to keep his new bodyguard in line. It works about as well as one can expect.

Held [The Sign, PhayaxTharn, TharnxPhaya, multichapter] The Sign was a wild ride and it was great fun sharing that ride with everyone! Writing as each episode came out and using the fic to delve deeper into the characters' thoughts and motivations made me appreciate the series more than I would have by just watching it, and I also had the opportunity to try a few new, fun writing tricks along the way. Be warned: chapter 11 is some of the most efficient writing I have ever written.

Now I'd like to hear which of your fics are your favourites @7nessasaryevils, @xagan, @luckydragon10

Recovery Road - dieter x f!reader. my first multichapter fic for the fandom and honestly some of my best work

Little Monsters - dieter x f!reader. daddy dieter is now a permanent fixture in my brain.

Go On, I Dare Ya - javier peña x f!reader. an older one that i FINALLY moved over from my old blog. Genuinely shocked by the reception of it, especially from folks that I know have read it before.

in another life - frankie morales x f!reader. this is just my personal love letter to the sweet dude in my life (and to frankie of course). all the problems in the house were real life problems we had to fix with our first house, so it's pretty personal. also, getting dicked down on the kitchen table 🤌🤌

you maybe dead, but i'm still pretty - max phillips x f!reader. not only is this one of the kinkier things i've written, but this is also a celebration of 14 year old taylor who was obsessed with buffy the vampire slayer, and therefore spike. as @spookyxsam so rudely identified, it seems i have a type 😞

i joined this fandom back in august of this year and cannot believe how much smut fic i have written, so this was really fun to go back and look at how far we've come! 🤍

and in addition to writing so much smut fic, i have met some lovely people! tagging: @suzdin @trulybetty @iamskyereads @northernwindd @northernwindd @pr0ximamidnight

:D my 5 favorite fics that I've written?? okay.

"It's No Secret" - Hinata returns to Konoha after 5 years studying abroad in the Moon Kingdom. She just wants to enjoy her last year of high school as a normal girl, but blossoming love forces her to confront her future. (Rated M). - My baby fish. A high school AU for which I was really trying all different kinds of things and making all kinds of mistakes, finding my writing style. As a fanfic writer newbie, I felt so free to do whatever I wanted! Every scene for me was gripping, and I was so immersed in the world I was trying to create. It has an original, lengthy plot that I still hope to finish one day!!! I love this fic just because it was so instrumental to helping me improve. It's definitely NOT my best work, but from the first chapter to the most recently published chapter, my growth in writing is so apparent. All of the comments I got on it, even the ones that criticized, were encouraging for me and I cherish those readers who've followed my fics since then 💞

"Nightdreams" - Naruto and Hinata find comfort in each other after the war. (Rated E). - The easiest multi-chapter fic to write. Ever. Since then, I've never had quite as much fun writing a fic (I think Catskin came close). Certainly never as easy a time. "Nightdreams" had its moments of growth for me for sure, though, like the mission chapter, the argument chapter, all of the smut! It had its challenges, but the story flowed so easily, from beginning to end. I think there were only a couple of small writer's blocks. Overall, "Nightdreams" easily takes fave #2 just because it was so fun, and I think readers can tell that I really enjoyed writing it.

"Awkward Jocks" - She knows that if he were to ever ask her out, she would accept in a heartbeat. After all, he's the star quarterback and basketball player. Plus, she's liked him since...forever. But when her home phone rings, and he's on the other line, she hangs up. (Rated G). - The sweet and funny love story based off of my ex-coworker's life...bittersweet now, don't remember if I shared on Tumblr why. But I wrote this fic full of my love for her, so it takes the spot for fave #3.

"About You" - A summer job at the Dole pineapple cannery, graveyard shift 10 PM to 6 AM. A long bus ride into and out of town. Two teens, shy beside each other. (Rated G). - One of my most personal fanfics, though many of them are super personal. This is possibly the MOST personal because it's slightly based off of my parents' stories, I set it on my home island, and I experimented with writing the dialogue in pidgin. The only reason it's not higher on my list is because I somehow feel like I didn't do as good a job on it as I would have liked. It's like, the cultural/historical details are not accurate enough for me. But this is definitely a fic I wrote for myself, and it's been a joy to see other people love it, too.

"Matcha" from "Shared Vows" - Naruto calls Hiashi "father" for the first time. (Rated T). - ooooh it was a toss-up between this one or "Finally Home" from "Shared Vows," but I decided on "Matcha" as my fave #5. I love how I framed this fic, its ending reversing the beginning, and I somehow managed to communicate exactly what I wanted to say about Naruto's new family. This fic gives me such feel-good vibes, and I'm so glad it captured the feelings I felt.

I know that my personal faves do not align with readers' personal faves. Except for maybe "Nightdreams" haha. That one is easy to love. I know people loved "White Lilies," "Friend of Mine," "Tell Me of Forevers," and "Undercover," ...those exhibit some of my best technical writing, so I'm glad readers recognized that effort! My personal faves have more sentimental value, I guess, so that's what makes them special to me.

Sorry this took *forever*, Anon. I think this summer my brain is the equivalent of scrambled eggs, and I'm sure the hamster running things has died from exhaustion. (sorry lil guy.)

Anyway, if you hadn't seen it, I already posted this here! I honestly haven't done much recently except for edit and repost Chapter Three of The Weave and the Vines, so if that's something that interests you you can check out the UPDATED chapters 1-3 here!

Thank you for the tag @annabtg

This was a bit tricky as I don't think I have favourites as such... but here's five fics of mine I'd like people to read or I have feels about. In no particular order:

Snow Globe ~ Jily 7K, Muggle AU.

The dreaded annual work holiday party, complete with cheesy party games, forced fun, too much eggnog, and a bunch of people who would rather be doing anything else. Then of course, there is also the Secret Santa. Plastering on her best fake smile Lily Evans opens the box containing her own Secret Santa Gift. To her amazement, she finds a snow globe that matches the one she had as a child but lost when she moved years ago.

This was the first fic I shared as charmsandtealeaves so it had to be on the list. It's probably poorly written and I dare not go back and read it and find a million mistakes now. 2. Stripped Back To Basics ~ Jily 10K, Crack Fic.

In which Petunia probably regrets telling Lily to "put herself out there." AKA a Naked Attraction AU.

My first ever collab fic with @athenasparrow. This project was so much fun to work on and has been very well received, even if most readers had never heard of the show Naked Attraction. Athena's already got our next collab idea ready to crack on with at a much later date.

3. Rose Tinted Glasses ~ Lily Evans, 190w drabble

For years Lily Evans lived her life behind the lens of rose tinted glasses. They made the world seem like it was okay. Until they came off.

A little angsty Lily Evans drabble about the relationships in her life. Something I wrote years ago and took down when I shifted from my old account and reuploaded earlier this year.

4. Happy Halloween ~ Sirius Raising Harry, 660w

A little fluff/mild angst piece in an AU where Sirius is raising Harry after the Potter's deaths. Takes place on Halloween night.

One of a couple of Dadfoot pieces I've written. I really like this one. It was based on a prompt from a discord server I'm in.

5. Padfoot Impounded ~ General marauders + Lily, 1.6K

The marauders had never accompanied Remus during one of his transformations outside of Hogwarts before. In fact, Remus had very much not wanted to go ahead with the idea, but somehow his friends had managed to convince him. Now they had a problem, during their escapade Padfoot has managed to get himself caught by animal control. The marauders need to bust him out of the pound but there is one slight hiccup they hadn’t anticipated. Lily Evans being the person behind the impound desk.

Now this one is one of my least popular stats wise on AO3. It's had 69 hits (nice 😉) and not a single comment. It was like the second thing I put out as Charms. The stats on it could have been really disheartening and I could have stopped putting content out after that. But I didn't! So even if people didn't like it, it deserves to be celebrated nonetheless.
