#I will never write this

[folie-a-louis]

idea for a fic that came to me in a dream:

it’s when neil and andrew are on pro teams and they get married (courthouse very private) (aaron is a little pissy about andrew getting married first esp bc andrew says that the reason he got married was to piss aaron off won’t admit his feelings for neil to his brother — i’m rambling)

ok back to the plot;

publically no one knows neil and andrew are married but they know andrew is because he wears his ring on his finger while neil wears his on a chain around his neck alongside the columbia key (because of the burns on his knuckles ring wearing is not the most comfortable) so no one puts its together

so the first press conference of the new season andrew shows up wearing a ring and everyone (including his teammates are confused, maybe one or two know but that’s it) because no one has ever seen him with a woman/didn’t know he even had a girlfriend. his teammates have asked him about his break/off season plans before and “going on a road trip with josten” and “visiting family” doesn’t scream someone in a long term relationship with a woman

any questions about his spouse/wife are deflected, doesn’t answers the questions, he does like to stir the pot a little saying cryptic things. some peoples reactions are like maybe she doesn’t want to be in the spotlight since andrew is a professional athlete and wants to keep her privacy we should respect it but others are trying to dig up anything about the elusive bride.

months go by and this digging leads to photos of neil and andrew together thus resulting in a scandal of andrew cheating on his wife with neil.

andrew and neil’s reaction is to ignore it, kinda concerned about their privacy but don’t really care about making a statement

their pr people/managers disagree and keeping trying to convince them to release a statement or something

it’s not until during an interview/press conference after a game that someone says something about the cheating scandal to andrew that bugs him or something (maybe something homophobic) and he finally addresses it by saying something along the lines of “i never knew it was possible to cheat on your husband with your husband”

edit:

i would just like to add that the foxes are in college/their twenties during the peak of facebook meaning that nicky was 100% that millennial that posted every single thought and photo albums containing 100+ photos on a daily basis.

that being said there are a lot of photos with neil and andrew in the background being neilandandrew on nicky’s facebook

imagine mitsuya who notices that there is someone new in his neighborhood. and all he notices that this person dresses up incredibly good and he loves it as hell. he fells for the it, way they dress up.

he doesn't even walk up and talk to them. he does a whole colection inspired by that one particular person's style.

just one day he talks to them and says they have become his muse.

and then the strenger is just like: ... ok.

or mitsuya shows his works to that person, mitsuya is given more inspirations. they spend more and more time together, fell for each other and live happily ever after.

just choose what you like lol

An absolutely horrible, evil oneshot idea

Dabi dies sometime before he can reveal his identity to the world.

Since he was such a big unknown, his genome is tested to find any relatives so the heroes might learn who he was.

Endeavor gets the worst phone call of his entire life.

If I was better at writing (political) intrigue, I might put it on my List. But I ain’t, so I won’t.

I’m currently watching Suits and it’s fun. And of course I have to imagine Zoro as an aggressive but honest lawyer in a way too expensive suit. He looks good in suits. Evidence A

Sanji’s of course a rival lawyer from a different firm who can’t believe how this gorilla got a law degree in the first place. Who’s he kidding to believe Zoro, Mr Burly Muscle Man himself would do all this tedious legal paperwork. Let’s be real!

But Zoro’s nothing but dedicated. If he wants something, he’ll get it.

Nami’s a para legal who will become the best finance lawyer in the Western hemisphere, but she wants to pay for law school on her own. (Some bad blood with loan sharks in her past.)

Usopp is fresh out of law school and his grades are top tier but when he has to speak with opposing council or god forbid a judge, he freezes and/or says the dumbest shit imaginable.

Brook is a sophisticated partner at the firm, disillusioned by years of practice. He’s seen some shit. But these younglings are changing his perspective.

Jinbei is the DA and works his ass off to make sure only actually guilty people are put away on his watch and then young offenders get a chance to learn from their mistake (when applicable). He rather be a public defense lawyer but he did what he had to do.

Vivi is a diplomat and needs good legal council, so that’s an easy in.

The most headache is Luffy. There’s no way in hell I can find an argument to make him a lawyer and that be believable. Him? No Way! And it all falls apart 😭

One way I will write a medical paper and it will be called Yearning Rats and Emotional Swans: Practical Acceptance and Commitment Therapy on a Popular Website

Reply with an unhinged description of your favorite OCs. I'll start.

(context, a super hero story)

Simon Sine: sweaty guy, smart but so so sweaty and sarcastic (his psychic powers have left him jaded about everything around him)

Cassie Erro: world's most pathetic little meow meow (receives prophecies of probable futures and thinks she is doing right but her prophecies fuck over people around her; Simon's apprentice)

Avery Morris: eww, I hate him (deragatory) everyone hates him (tony stark but worse, sarcastic to the point of cruelty)

Edrice Cooper: my fave, I love them. fucking tired, man. the only person with a brain (wind powers, was a sidekick to Morris but got jaded and quit after high school to focus on college)

Charloette (Charlie) Anthony: I hate her (affectionate), she is your favorite drinking partner (not anymore), wants to kill Simon and Avery personally (her power is that she's like hulk but with 6 arms, hotheaded)

Kaitlin Cainell: somehow the stupidest and smartest person here (villain pov character)

Elix Grimshaw: sweaty, sweaty guy (villain, Kaitlin and Elix want each other in a way that would cast them out of Eden)

Have a shuake plot bunny that I need to expunge from my head immediately, feat. Actual Prince Akechi and Akira disguising himself as a woman to infiltrate the palace:

Okay so eastern period drama style, Prince Akechi stays in the palace while quietly plotting to usurp/assassinate his tyrant father. Shido, the emperor, is fairly detached from reality and very paranoid of dissent, so Akechi holds no real power (just goodwill he's earned through charisma). Shido keeps throwing women and consorts at Akechi to hopefully distract him/marry him off/what have you. Akechi has no interest in any of that, obviously.

Enter Akira, the leader of the revolutionaries, who (along with Ann and Makoto) attempt to infiltrate the harem so they can gain access to the palace. Only Akira gets through the selection process and becomes one of the Prince's royal consorts.

Oh and maybe Maruki is in there somewhere as like... a royal physician? In the medieval sense, anyway. A wellness advisor with his own agenda who is sensitive to shuake's plight and eventually gets in the way. (light B-plot)

Anyway, Akechi writes off this new addition as usual, but Akira has to crank up the charm to both gain his trust and explain away all the snooping around he may get caught doing. Lots of accidental bonding ensues. (There's always a 'helping the prince dress' scene with palpable tension, isn't there?) Akira has a crisis over being fond of a member of the royal family. Akechi has a crisis over developing an interest in who he thinks is a woman. Maybe they plan on killing each other to further their goals somehow.

Akira's secret is eventually revealed and everything clicks... probably while they're trying to kill each other. They become accomplices... add a touch of political drama since Akechi will now obviously favor one particular consort... Shido attempts to marry him off to some other family/country for political gain... the revolutionaries fully infiltrate the palace and help stop Shido's nonsense... huge battle against the royal guard with the turncoats Akechi has won over to his side... happy ending?

Yeah, maybe happy ending.

i just think that shin soukoku gaining awareness in the beast universe could lead to , who knows, them looking for each other in the different universes that dazai mentioned (or whatever they are, i spedrun (spedran? speedran?) through beast and can only recall the Absolute Angst and Absolute Fate (all by DazaiTM) of it), and perhaps even further

in some random universe abilities are dead and atsushi, after having a moderately decent life in some random orphanage, is busy filing out his taxes, but there's this gloomy taxes agent that won't stop staring and eventually goes up to him (pulls him into a corner, muffling his startled scream with a hand, threatening to kill him -- romances always start this way)

'stop screaming it's just me. the guy who's been going after you in every universe. not to kill you, no. to unite the way dazai wanted us to. oh dazai is WHAT in your universe? that does not matter. yes. your violin teacher wants us to unite. why you? i don't know... maybe you fucking died as a vampire in my universe??? oh, you're sorry?? that's not gonna bring you back!!'

akutagawa does not exist in this universe, did everything he could to save gin from a drunk driver when they were teenagers (and in the universe where he lives, well -- atsushi doesn't learn about him until he's fifty-seven) (and in the universe where he learns about him much earlier, they never get along, and they only interact for six months) (and in another budding universe, akutagawa bumps into him when he's five. and he never really pays it any mind, until he once again bumps into a guy at the cemetery, staring at his best friend's grave, gone too soon and forever remembered) (he could not stop the driver this time, was away with a friend and can never shake off the guilt, the despair that reside in his heart)

it's a little sudden, it's not at all what atsushi planned to do on a sunday -- but after all this world lacks akutagawa, a very strange angry man who will not lean away from his front door, who's way too convinced 'he's the one' to go look for another Him. and his world lacks atsushi, had him become a vampire then promptly pass away.

how did that happen -- akutagawa will only tell if atsushi agrees to come with him, but atsushi isn't stupid, and if he closes his eyes -- he thinks he can imagine it, him pushing akutagawa out of the way; him being in the way, rather than him (for his live means a lot, to ppl and - him) -- buying akutagawa time, each and every time, so that he can live on and carry their goal on his broad back

it's silly: he doesn't know him, might just never do, not in the way the Real atsushi did -- but this atsushi has nothing to care about, not much apart from taxes at least -- and this akutagawa has the guy from the grocery store being an amazing chef in his universe, so amazing he won't mind buying dinner to a copy-paste (yet so familiar, yet so alike his atsushi) of his partner

it's an easy yes, an easy pact sealed by shaken hands -- it's a trip into another universe, and through fights and disgruntled confessions (through kindness and wordless exchanges) they learn to see the other from another universe, learn to understand what the other went through

through grief and a not-a-violin-teacher dazai, through caught-but-cured vampirism and badly hidden, eventually confessed love they learn to coexist, and the world is saved and all is well once again, the world balanced by their explosive chemistry

ps. though atsushi dies in a few universes to save akutagawa, akutagawa dies like a hundred times saving atsushi. i have decided so and i know it to be true in my heart

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

Disclaimer these are just a small sampling of some possible writer traits I’ve noticed either in myself or in fics I read. Also consider a rb for sample size !

[tariah23]

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

Me: maybe I’m not cut out to be a writer…idk what if I’m not good enough

BookTok romance writers: ‘what if you were just a normal school teacher…but the MINOTAUR wanted to get you PREGNANT’

[magnusbae]

To illustrate this post by @mayahawkse I would like to visualize to you the difference:

A post in 2023:

A post in 2014:

A zoom out of the same post:

This is what a community looks like.

See how in 2023 almost all of the reblogs come from the OP, from their few hours/days in the tag search. Meanwhile in 2014 the % of reblogs from OP is insignificant, because most of the reblogs come from the reblogs within the fandom, within the micro-communities formed there. You didn't need to rely on tags, or search, or being featured. Because the community took care of you, made sure to pass the work between themselves and onto their blog and exposed their followers to it. It kept works alive for years.

It's not JUST the reblog/like ratio that causing this issue, it's the type of interaction people have. They're content with scrolling and liking the search engine, instead of actually having a reblogging relationship with other blogs in their community.

Anyways, if you want to see more content you like, the only true way to make it happen is to reblog it. Likes do not forward content in no way but making OP feel nice. Reblogs on the other hand make content eternal. They make it relevant, they make it exist outside of a fickle tumblr search that hardly works on the best of days.

If you want more of something, reblog it.

i wish you guys lived inside my head the fics in here go crazy

So normal about Jon being like I don’t remember what you looked like but the man who let you die is going to suffer for what he did to you. If only Sasha coulda seen that.

So normal about Jon being like you died hating me and wanting me dead but I’m still gonna make sure this man knows I’m ending him in your name. Sure wish Tim coulda seen that.

So normal about the fact that everyone believed Jon was losing his humanity but no one got to see the ways his love and compassion for the people he lost or who hurt him drove him to that final moment.

So normal about the fact that even after everything Jonah’s done to Jon, the only person he never thinks to get justice for is himself.
