Monster Hearts drawings
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I took all my header drawings for Monster Hearts (ao3) and put them together in a little scrapbook so I wouldn't lose them!
Now you can see the IRL size comparisons between the images and how wildly inconsistent the paper types and sizing are because I just used whatever art book was closest at the time lol.
as an extra I also stuck in all the POV headers and a bunch of trail and extra drawings I did that weren't already in an art book of some kind.

One more matchup from a while back, this one is Jo vs my friend Jame's OC Tategami. Two beast women (in the literal sense- Tategami is represented by lions and Jo by wolves).
Jo's uniform above has changed a bit, but I still really like how this one turned out! I'm thinking about doing these again if there's any interest, maybe as a trade this time.

This AU is very interesting! Godzilla is the underground fighter and Mothra is a painter of the arts!
What will be the dynamic of their personal life and family?
Is their family good? Bad? Complex?
Is Ghidorah gonna be there to mess with Godzilla?
Is Battra protective of his twin sister Mothra and despises Godzilla?
Will Kong and Rodan try to help Godzilla in this?
Ahh thank you for the questions!!!
Okay...I haven't really thought about the whole family thing yet
But Kong and Godzilla are roommates and bffs who just fight a lot
Yes, ghidora will be there and so will battra
Yes, rodan and kong will help Godzilla take back his title as the Alpha champion or king of the monsters!
Mothra will also help him with this and Jo's college work, bc he's falling behind, but she also helps him mentally with his anger issues!

Window Across the Galaxy ✧*:・゚✧*:・゚*
masterlist
Tumblr media Tumblr media
18+ only MDNI | rocket x f!oc | 27/27 chapters | COMPLETE | word count: 235,940.
girl falls first; raccoon falls harder.
Rocket is captured by a Ravager crew hoping to get rich off the excessively large bounty on his head. Throwing a wrench in everyone’s plans is the Terran girl they hired to do some freelance assessing on a recent haul of goods they’ve seized from a Xandaran luxury liner. Oops.
slight AU starting pre-GOTG volume 1 (but will hit most of the same major plot points). slow burn + eventual smut with a lot of pining in the middle. kinda enemies-to-lovers? (but only one of these idiots thinks they're enemies).
let me be real with you: this fic is really about wish-fulfillment. not just the eventual smut (but that too). mostly i just want someone to be nice to my best boy raccoon back to main masterlist.
Tumblr media
so many amazing sweet wonderful readers have drawn fanart of this fic??? ♡♡♡♡♡ jolie is written without much physical description so you can imagine whatever you want but if you'd like to see how i and others imagine her, i've linked them below. thank you for being the absolute sweetest.

very first portrait of jolie by @raccoonmybeloved ~ so fucking cute i died
sims of jo by @evolvingchaoswitch ~ particularly love her paint-spattered outfit
an absolutely drool-worthy nsfw of rocket & jolie by @lazarel-3000 that permanently has altered my brain chemistry and lives in my mind forever ♡♡♡

Tumblr media Tumblr media
✧・゚:*collects Chapters I-XXVII (below the cut) & a holiday special && a silly epilogue
Chapter I. A Delicacy. in which our reluctant heroes meet atop a crate of Sovereign porn in the bowels of a Ravager ship.
Chapter II. Monster For A Pet. in which one hero wrestles with his inner Groot, and the other is quite possibly a moron.
Chapter III. A Kindness. in which Rocket gets in his own damn way: not for the first time, and certainly not for the last.
Chapter IV. Got There First. in which our heroes obtain an arsenal and street food.
Chapter V. Things No-One Has Said Before. in which one hero refuses to babysit and the other refuses to leave.
Chapter VI. Two and a Half Billion Units. in which we lean into the “they were roommates” trope. Jolie has misgivings, while Rocket has fantasies - about getting rich, of course.
Chapter VII. I'm Here. in which we visit Knowhere.
Chapter VIII. The Care & Feeding of Human Pets. in which our heroes practice breathing and we lean into a new trope: “there was (technically) one bed.”
Chapter IX. Scrapmetal and a Dream. in which we redefine homemaking.
Chapter X. Thin Fucking Ice. in which our heroes get fucked. Not in the good way.
Chapter XI. Let It Be .in which Xandar is saved and good lives are lost.
Chapter XII. So Much It Hurts. in which we try not to fuck up the vibes.
Chapter XIII. Don’t Wait. in which a lost sister is found and Drax grapples with the concept of sarcasm.
Chapter XIV. Exactly Like a Flower. in which comfort is shared.
Chapter XV: Galaxy-Breaking Shit. in which more comfort is shared, and life is good. Briefly.
Chapter XVI. Run. in which Rocket falls victim to his superstitions.
Chapter XVII. A Seedling. A Fox. A Little Girl. in which the party is divided.
Chapter XVIII. I Happen to Know a Guy. in which our heroes get fucked. Again. Still not in the good way.
Chapter XIX. He Was Loved. in which a planet is killed, a friend is made and lost, and nobody still has any frickin’ tape.
Chapter XX. Some Nerve. * in which an ultimatum is given.
Chapter XXI. I Very Still. ❤︎❤︎ in which our heroes get fucked. In the good way, this time. Finally.
Chapter XXII. Got There Worse. ❤︎❤︎ in which Rocket does not say "I love you."
Chapter XXIII. We're Gonna Need a Bigger Table. ❤︎ in which the galaxy just keeps spinning.
Chapter XXIV. Space Would Be Better. ❤︎❤︎ in which Rocket ~ discreetly ~ claims the title of boyfriend.
Chapter XXV. Little Love Stories. in which both of our heroes learn a little about themselves. ❤︎
Chapter XXVI. Other Side of the Window. in which old friends are reunited. ❤︎
Chapter XXV. The Most Beautiful Thing in My House. in which our heroes finally get what they deserve.❤︎
⋆꙳•̩̩͙❅*̩̩͙‧͙ Winter Across the Galaxy * ‧͙*̩̩͙❆ ͙͛ ˚₊⋆ a holiday special *

Summary: An Under the Whispering Door AU. Lonely, workaholic Stede Bonnet dies alone in his office, and is swept away to Blackbeard's, an unconventional tea shop that serves as a holding place for souls who need help crossing over. There, he meets Ed, the charismatic ferryman tasked with helping Stede make peace with a life he isn't proud of. As he gets to know the occupants of Blackbeard's, Stede learns more about himself from the too-blunt and very dead Jim; about friendship from the sassy waiter Lucius who's got one foot in the land of the living and one in the world of the dead; and about love from Ed, with whom he spends nights stargazing in the tea garden, wishing they'd met sooner. He learns what happens when you can't accept death from Izzy, a lost soul who's become untethered from the tea shop and turned into a monstrous creature with no way back to himself. And ultimately, with the help of his newfound family, he discovers that no matter how bleak the circumstances, there’s always an escape.

[IMAGE ID: Two anonymous asks.
The first reads, "Oh I know NOTHING about supernatural, so maybe a summary of what happens in this au? Or the roles the characters fulfill?
The second reads, "ROTTMNT SPN AU WHAT ARE,, THEIR ROLES LIKE HOW DO THEY PLAY IN I don't even know where to BEGIN this has my frothing at the mouth infodump please I am begging you"
END ID]
(thank you @cherrycreamsicle for making the image id!)
I’m glad people are interested in this au! Because these are similar questions I’m answering both in a giant infodump under the cut
(also I started thinking of this idea less than 48 hours ago so things may change/there’s still a lot I haven’t figured out yet!)
For people who don’t know much about the tv show supernatural that’s okay! I’m borrowing a lot of loose elements from the earlier seasons (mainly the aesthetics and angst haha). All you need to know is that Dean is the older brother and Sam is the younger, and they grew up on the road hunting monsters with their shitty dad while wearing lots of flannel.
In a way this au is also a half separated au lol. This is because Leo and Donnie were raised together by Draxum (with Donnie being the “Dean” and Leo being the “Sam”), and Raph and Mikey were raised together by Splinter (with Raph being “Dean” and Mikey being “Sam).
Draxum raised Leo and Donnie to be fighters and were constantly pitted against each other. This made them very competitive (and kinda violent) as they constantly tried to “win over” Draxum’s affection. (Leo began to realize that they would never be good enough and eventually ran out, but Donnie was more desperate for Draxum’s approval, and thus, more loyal to him)
Like in rise, splinter is very distant (especially emotionally) so Raph was basically raising Mikey by himself. I also think it would be interesting if they grew up at/near the Roadhouse, where April also works (fulfilling a similar role as Jo. In supernatural, the roadhouse is basically a bar where hunters pass through, hang out, share information, etc. in this au it would function similarly for hunters/maybe yokai instead?). Because Raph was very doting on Mikey, as they got older Mikey got tired of it and wanted to be independent, so he fucked off to art school (sorry Mikey I’m not diagnosing you with lawboy <3)
Draxum still created all the brothers in an attempt to create the perfect “warrior”. How Raph and Mikey got separated and how all four of them reunited as adults are questions I haven’t figured out yet LOL. Just know that they grew up thinking “I only have one brother” and then BOOM more brothers. Im definitely much more interested in exploring all the new brothers dynamics/angst this au entails! I already have drawing ideas for that so instead of writing more y’all will have to wait a bit ;)
If people have more questions please send me more asks! (Also if anyone makes any art for this au PLEASE tag me I will CRY from joy)
Also teenage mutant flannel turtles was a joke name but I think it might be sticking oops

AU/Sideblog Masterpost
Tumblr media
Alternate Triforce/ALT — main AU, essentially a Zelda and Ganon Triforce swap with sentient monsters, body horror, and a 30 page worldbuilding document I have on my PC. I've been working on it since 2017 and I don't know if I'll ever stop. I usually refer to Link, Ganon, and Zelda from this AU as Jo, Blue Lug, and Diosia.
Tumblr media
Golden Blood on His Hands/GBoH — secondary AU mostly based in Breath of the Wild, though I've developed some other characters outside of it. It was originally inspired by a comic, and is basically a BotW Link corruption arc (he, um, tries to stab Zelda.) I usually refer to Link, Zelda, and Hylia as Gaffen, Widget, and Her Birdliness respectively.
Tumblr media
Other AUs I have — I post about other Zelda FCs I have on here from time to time! Most of them are less developed than my main ones, the exception being probably Leylines, which is a collaboration. I don't have a tag for this but I will probably make one!
my art — zelda art I post on here!
glider rambles — Exactly What It Says On the Tin. zelda meta analysis, random babbling, stuff about my aus, etc
@alternate-triforce — Alternate Triforce comic
@waterglider0 — this is technically my main blog but yeah

The Prince and the Guardian  |  Explicit | 141,273 words
Author: lily_winterwood Artist: Alina
This is his final year of training. His practicum year, so to speak. The Guardians are not officially recognised by the Queen, so it is imperative he keep such affiliations to himself. Nevertheless, Claire is right — he would only be here for a couple of months, practicing his hunting techniques in the Great Forest or wherever else his daytime duties might take him, preparing himself for his first Mid-Autumn Harvest. It would be the initial three-night sojourn in the heart of the Wild that would make or break his initiation as a full-fledged Guardian.
Guardian-in-training Dean Winchester is posted undercover to the Duchy of Edlund, hunting monsters to prepare himself for the initiation. However, as he gets closer to the Duke’s youngest son, Castiel, he can’t help but wonder if there are more dangerous monsters lying closer to his heart.
(A Regency Fantasy AU)

Pairings: Dean/Cas (Sam/Jess, Cas/Anna as a relationship of convenience, Dean&Jo, Dean&Claire, past/implied Dean/Benny, Kaia&Claire, Jody&Donna, most background relationships open to interpretation)

TMNT Genderbend Names
I need help again but it’s actually, like... important??? For fic, anyway.
So I’m tagging my tmnt pals. @crow-dog-blogs @leonsi @this-world-of-beautiful-monsters @brightlotusmoon @neromia
This’ll be... not long-long but lots of lines so I’ll put under a cut. I need help with names. Please. O~O
So I’m doing a genderbend oneshot, but I wanna use the same names for the characters throughout my genderbend stuff--which will include my Comparisons AU whenever I get around to revamping that thing. I have some ideas, but I want second opinions, especially ‘cause like, half of you guys read my stuff now and... I just would really like your input, please.
So, I’ll start with the main cast in this post, or at least the ones I’m worried about Right Now, and then tomorrow I’ll reblog with minor characters/villains that won’t be of much importance (at least for a while). I’ll color-coding and role-related nicknames, or actually titles for canon characters.
So for our Fearless Blue One, I think I’ll definitely hope on the Lavinia bandwagon. I mean, the woman was a fucking overachiever in the best way--she was the first female artist to rely solely on her commission money and she was known throughout western Europe, not just in Italy. Also, she was the first woman artist to paint/draw female nudes??? And she had a househusband with children? Renaissance Icon much? Plus, there’s the added benefit of Simple Nicknames and keeping the initials; Fearless Leader Lavinia, Nia, Vin, Vinny--lots of choices!
Next the Feisty Ball of Flames, our darling Red Turtle. I was thinking Sofonisba, who is also an icon and not-coincidentally my favorite artist of all time. She was taught by Bernardino Campi, which was kind of a big deal at the time, and was internationally recognized as a fucking fantastic artist. She worked in the Spanish Royal Court--she was an Italian woman and worked for the Spanish royals. Her paintings are stunning and remarkably realistic for the time period--she was so good that Michelangelo gave her props. That kind of badassery is befitting our sewer-dwelling brawler. However, nicknames were a bit tricky for me. I decided that Sof (pronounced like the beginning of Sophie) would probably be her regular nickname and Sofie would be her Special Cute Nickname.
For the turtley genius, I’m thinking Giovanna. Giovanna Garzoni was a still-life painter and portraitist. Her work is very good and her paintings are remarkably realistic. She was considered so good at what she did, that she could, reportedly, ask any price for her paintings. For some time, her primary clients were the Medici Family. She also attended the Accademia di San Luca, where she followed events and discussion aimed at educating, socializing, and professionalizing painters, architects and sculptors of Rome. Nicknames are pretty easy, too: Vanna, Van, Gio (pronounced Vawn-ah, Vawn, and Jo(e), respectively). Vanna and Van sound a bit like Donnie and Don, too, so that’s cute.
Last turtle-sib: Artemisia. Artemisia Lomi, or Artemisia Gentileschi, among the most accomplished seventeenth-century artists, initially working in the style of Caravaggio. She was producing professional work by the age of fifteen, and was the first woman to become a member of the Accademia di Arte del Disegno in Florence. She had an international clientele. She did a lot of darker works with bright lighting and vivid colors, which reminds a lot of the Prankster--bright and cheery at first glance but a little darker in reality. Also, the nicknames Art and Arty follow a similar vein of Mike and Mikey.
For Splinter’s eldest child, I was thinking Mitsuaki, which is a Japanese name meaning “light, luminence.” It keeps the M initial of Miwa and keeps the fluffy meaning (Miwa means something like “beautiful” or “peaceful”--it might’ve been “beautiful peace,” I don’t remember off the top of my head). Of course, the Shredder will rename this child, which I don’t think Shred-head is very good at naming babies (he named Karai “spicy,” after all), so I think he’d probably go with something like Kohaku, which translates roughly to “amber”--the color of the kid’s eyes. Pretty obvious, but I thought it would be funny, and I like shitting on Shredder. Have a little gag about Shredder being so uncreative that they would immediately name their only kid after their eye color...
Speaking of, I’m keeping the name Saki, since it’s unisex; so is Yoshi, so I’m keeping that, too. Titles are still Shredder and Splinter.
August is the redhead, of course, and Casey is unisex so it stays.
I’m not worried about anybody else’s names right now, since they’re not relevent to what I’m working on. But, yeah, please give me the feedback. I’m having a bit of a dilemma and I usually spend, like, weeks on names, so...

Fic recs for taehyung? I love your stuff btw I’ve read them all uwu
Tumblr media
As a beacon of extra-ness in an already extra world, I am entirely incapable of just recommending fics like a normal blog. No. I’ve got to wax on like a bloomin connoisseur. I have compiled some (but not all) of my favorite works in several different categories and sorted them accordingly. This crazy list is so long I had to add a “keep reading”... but I simply couldn’t bear to leave any of these off the list. They are all so good!
Fics have been divided into 8 categories. Some are under the cut. 
 ▨ FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS and FRIENDS TO LOVERS ▨  ▨ ARRANGED MARRIAGE ▨ ▨ FANTASY ▨ ▨ ANGST WITH A HAPPY ENDING ▨ ▨ HYBRID and ABO (alpha/omega) ▨ ▨ MULTIPLE PARTNERS ▨ ▨ NEIGHBORS AND ROOMMATES ▨ ▨ TABOO THEMES and DARK FIC (Sex Work/Power Imbalance/Very Unsafe Sex) ▨ ▨
▨ FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS and FRIENDS TO LOVERS ▨
Insomnia by @hobiwonder
This is one of those fics I read and literally could not stop thinking about. It is wildly hot and honestly hilarious. Poor reader cannot sleep and the beautiful bro she’s tutoring offers a rather unconventional solution.
(Ego) Hoe Chronicles: KTH by @suga-kookiemonster
Listen. If you find a niche fan blog devoted entirely to Ego Tae... I’m not gonna say it’s mine. But it’s probably mine. I once told suga-kookiemonster that I would literally read a story about Ego Tae going grocery shopping on a Wednesday night and I stand by that. In this lurid romp, the reader falls into the clutches of everyone’s favorite bohemian sex lord and he rails her into another dimension.
Falling, Falling, Gone by @johobi
Pining (mutual or otherwise) is not really my thing, but I would straight up read Jo’s laundry list if she posted it. As usual I was blown away by how everything she does seems somehow better than any other version of it. This reader is really unique as well, and her relationship with the wildly popular soccer star Tae comes to a sexy and hilarious head at a sort of bachelor auction. With sharp dialogue, delightful subtext, and fantastic side characters, you really shouldn’t miss it. It’s pretty much perfect.
A Friendly Favor by @baeseoul
This is the classic “teach me some sex for another woman” trope and it is done so well. Sweet best friend Tae is looking to benefit from your experience, but his is not the only world about to be thouroughly rocked.
Officer Kim and the Criminal Crush by @ddaengyoonmin
This is one of the best twists on childhood friends to lovers I have ever seen. Tae grows up to become a cop and reader grows up to be a societal menace. I won’t spoil it, but it’s the perfect blend of nostalgia, tenderness, and smut. This fic technically doesn’t have a name so I had to give it one to link it. It’s part of an AMAZING series Zoe did that I also highly recommend.
Out of the Blue by @jimlingss
This is one of those stories that blooms throughout the narrative until you are left with this gorgeous flower at the end. I loved the journey of these two characters. It was real and it perfectly captures the experience of finding your soulmate in the person you least expect.
Sin Pijama by @brilliantlybasicb
This fic is a switch culture fic. It is wild wicked hot and this Tae is unreal. I love the way he lets the reader think she is in control just long enough. It is a wild romp with an adorable sequel and honestly you should read it.
Girls Like You by @jjiminah
I was in jjiminah’s asks IMMEDIATELY about this fic because I had FEELINGS. The reader begins wordlessly teasing and tempting Tae on their morning bus ride every day until he is literally losing his mind. Everything that follows is fire. Jjiminah has hinted she will wrote more for these two and I NEED IT.
Sighs and Sonnets by @btsaudge
This fic is beautiful. Like it’s basically art. This is a bad boy who is bad for you. But he has the soul of a poet and the stroke game of a renaissance master. Bittersweet and seductive, this fic is a full experience.
The Text by @taetaesbaebaepsae
Tae is your friend with benefits but it looks like feeling may have been caught by one or more parties. When you attempt to soothe your aching heart with another pretty boy, Tae decides to stake his claim. This was very sexy. The whole fic was sexy.
▨ ARRANGED MARRIAGE ▨
Monster by @neonlights92
Monster and all of its companion series about each of the boys is one of those fics that I reread constantly and also just think about constantly. This is one of the best mafia AUs out there and it’s characters are vivid and unforgettable. Tae’s stubborn resistance to his lovely new wife in contrast with her quiet, clever strength really brings this story to life. A word of warning. The masterlist links are a bit messed up. To read part two you must click on part three. And to read part three must click on part four. The link to part four is at the bottom of part three (or you can just search it on her site. It is definitely all there though).
Dichotomy by @kpopfanfictrash
There is a reason the incomparable Shanna is on this list three times. She is truly incomparable. This is childhood friends-to enemies-to spouses and it is wonderful. I adore this Tae. He is sharp and vulnerable and occasionally heavy handed, but truly a gem. This fic also features one of the best angry sex scenes I’ve ever run my eyeballs across.
▨ FANTASY ▨
Chism by @kpopfanfictrash
The world-building in this story is genuinely awe inspiring. You could write series upon series within this vivid universe. The god of Winter is missing and Summer’s heat burns unchecked for many years. The reader is a warrior with a unique ability tasked with guarding a very interesting prisoner. This story is so good. I mean it is really bloomin incredible. It’s hard to say what I liked best about it, because it was stellar across the board.
Obsidian by @kpopfanfictrash
In the pantheon of delicious Tae incarnations, Obsidian Taehyung is essentially unrivaled as a grey witch who moonlights as a sexy rock star. His extremely erotic clash with a white witch detective plays out as the two of them track down a sinister killer (with the help of some truly memorable side characters).
Out of this World by @ddaengyoonmin
This one is really unique. Tae is a merman scientist on the water planet of Neptune and when the reader and her misguided crew crash into his sea, he takes it upon himself to improve inter-species relations. This fic features excellent world building alongside several twists and surprises. Clever scientist Tae is downright irresistible.
▨ ANGST WITH A HAPPY ENDING ▨
Picking Flowers by @jamaisjoons
So this story is a journey - truly a beautiful one and it’s a gorgeous addition to the hanahaki genre. There is real pain and I cried real tears, but gosh it was so sexy and so worth it. I was surprised by how truly immersed I ended up in this piece. I lost track of everything else. The end is insanely satisfying, but the journey is really what makes this fic unmissable.
Until Yesterday by @jimlingss
This fic destroyed me slowly then slowly put me together again piece by piece. When I say I went through it - I WENT THROUGH IT. The story is loosely based on the movie “The Vow” and it is just fantastic. Beautiful and tender till the last word.
The Foolish Muse by @bibbykins
This is the story of someone who is deeply in love, but knows they deserve better. It is a sexy and evocative work with allusions to mythology that fit seamlessly into the narrative. I think my favorite part is Tae discovering how much the reader meant to him and what choices ultimately lead them to a really delicious conclusion.
Back to You by @ladyartemesia
The last time I did a fic rec list, it got like 700 notes. Ya girl is not makin the same mistake again. I spent hours on this list. My work is comin along for the ride. Kim Taehyung is the love of your life, until one day he disappears without a trace.
Vacancy by @ppersonna
This one is the only idol AU on the list and I normally don’t read those, but Lindy’s work is too good to miss in any setting. I am thrilled I took a look because what I found was a glimpse into a beautiful relationship that weathers and eventually overcomes the challenges of loving in the limelight. There is a LOT of emotional depth and symbolism which really elevates everything about this lovely story. The reader’s internal struggles in the face of her lover’s fame are extremely well done.
▨ HYBRID and ABO ▨ (alpha/omega)
Eye of the Tiger by @opaljm
I am beyond hype about this story which is (very) loosely inspired by Zootopia and features a cocky tiger Taehyung and a fiesty prey hybrid he needs to fake date in order to keep panther Jimin from murdering him. (Tiger Tae got a tad too frisky around Jimin’s mate and now things are dangerously awkward.) This story is already so freakin good. I cannot wait for the rest.
Silver and Blue by @taetaewonderland
What happens when you get on the wrong side of the right werewolf? Very sexy - very crazy times. Chronologically this is the first of the Silver and Blue series which follows barely civilized were-Tae through his courtship and eventually his relationship with the spunky reader. Holla to all my impreg kink homies. This is the fic for you.
Heat Run by @ladyartemesia
As I said before, the last time I did a fic rec list, it got like 700 notes. Ya girl is not makin the same mistake twice. I spent hours on this list. My work is comin along for the ride. Alpha lawyer V is a man of many secrets, but his well ordered reality spirals wildly out of control when he crosses paths with a fiery omega set on saving the world from his wicked ways.
Beautiful Stranger by @interludemoonchild
This was a wild ride from start to finish. Taehyung is a tiger hybrid shifter who escapes from the circus to be close to a veterinary student he bonded with. There is a lot of interesting twists and surprises in this one. I was definitely screaming at the end.
Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell by @jingabitch
A very young wolf hybrid Taehyung adopts you as his pet human when you are just a kid. After Tae leaves to serve in the military he returns to an adult version of his sweet little princess and chaos ensues. Mind the tags for this one folks. It’s excellent, but there are very triggering themes throughout.
▨ MULTIPLE PARTNERS ▨
Level of Restraint by @lemonjoonah
This is not strictly a Tae fic in that he is only one of three major players in this twisted masterpiece. Lemon is the undisputed queen of the surprise twist and this one is truly brilliant. People dropped this fic in the discord calling it the best fan fiction they had ever read and I am not here to argue with them at all. Fair warning, every word - every inch of this fic is sexy and it’s delicious brand of titillation is wrapped around your psyche good and tight by the end.
Four by @luxekook
The quadruplets next door are fueling your very lurid fantasies. It turns out they have some fantasies of their own... You will need water if you read this fic. This is the original patented Kim Taehyung Horny Hive Mind 4D Experience™
▨ NEIGHBORS AND ROOMMATES ▨
The Heat Wave Series by @curly-bangtan
The original story (chapter 1) in this series is definitely famous, but I don’t know how many people have read all 9 chapters and if you haven’t, you are really missing the incredible journey of two very horny idiots stumbling recklessly towards real and amazing love. Everything is set off when the air conditioner breaks and a pair of wild roommates shed their inhibitions along with their clothes.
Flicker by @chimoona
So this fic started out with adorable neighbor dynamics and ended with erotic rope tying. Baby I was ABOUT IT. This was so bloomin hot and also like sweet and tender. Really a sexy and sentimental treasure.
Not Your Typical Flower Shop Story by @jungtaeyoongles
This story goes from “aww” to “WHAT THE-” real quick. Fast paced plot and twist after twist turn the whole flower shop au upside down and then inside out. I can’t say more because spoilers but like - WOW.
▨ TABOO THEMES and DARK FIC ▨ (Sex Work/Power Imbalance/Very Unsafe Sex)
Extracurricular by @ppersonna
One of my favorite professor-student AUs. The reader writes her gorgeous professor a borderline erotic analysis of several major works of art and he feels compelled to discuss it with her privately. Lindy really outdid herself on this one. It is scorchin. Professor Tae is actually really sweet and somehow that just makes the whole thing hotter.
Akrasia by @nitaescence
This is insanely hot. Emphasis on the insane because it’s basically a super erotic romp where you have sex with a man you don’t know (Taehyung) on a crowded public bus. I literally felt my blood pressure going up the longer I read. Whew.
The Client by @jungkookiebus
This one hit me right in the feels. Taehyung is a sweet and lonely man who has a standing Wednesday appointment with an upscale sex worker. As the story progresses, feelings become involved on both sides. When I say I am checking her page thrice daily for part three... This is so engrossing. And this Tae. I just want to hold him.
Daffodil Dreams by @sombreboy
Tread carefully ladies and gents. This story is excellent, but it is easily the darkest fic on the list and, if you choose to read it, please read the trigger warnings carefully. The reader is a psychologist called in to analyze a very dangerous criminal. As their sessions progress, however, several boundaries are crossed.
Obey by @jjkfire
Taehyung is the most feared and ruthless member of the local mafia and you are the world’s most inept escort. You needed a job, but had no real interest in sex work and you’ve managed to fly under the radar as a glorified waitress until Kim Taehyung himself walks into your agency and decides that you’re the only girl he wants. Oh my gosh I loved this story so much. It was downright amazing and there is a surprise at the end that makes everything even sweeter.

Nace's stitch guide for Monster Hearts
Tumblr media
i realised i never actually showed you all what Nace's stitch pattern is in Monster Hearts. I did only finalist this like halfway through so there is some art where the pattern is different but this is the official look I'm going with. honestly I don't really mind if you change it up a bit, the important ones are the y mark on his chest, the one over his eye and the one around his neck.

Writers of Destiel The Day They First Met Prompt Week
just a little bit of your heart by @kitmistry, prompt: monster monday
No archive warnings, canon-compliant, confessions, first kiss, misunderstandings, fluff and humor, Dean is an idiot, bisexual disaster Dean Winchester
“So, how was it?” Dean asks, voice cracking with forced cheerfulness. “I, I’m planning on confessing my feelings to someone important and I wanted to rehearse, so I figured you’d be the best option. What with Sam being my brother and, and, Jack would just be weird, so...yeah.” Castiel’s face remains blank. “I think you were a bit brusque,” he says, slowly, at last. Like maybe Dean’s not making sense. “Maybe try loosening up a little? Um, explaining your feelings more clearly, perhaps.” Or, three times Dean tried to confess and one time he did. (Rated G, 1.4k)
Pinned To The Wall by @peanutbutterjelly-pie, prompt: monster monday
canon compliant, friends to lovers, vampires, dean being a disaster bi
Dean finds himself in a very awkward position involving a hard brick wall, a murderous vampire and a pissed off angel. (Rated T, 2.2k)
have and hold by @kitmistry, prompt: au tuesday
No archive warnings, pirate AU, historical AU, pirate captain Dean Winchester, Selkie Castiel, fluff, minor Jo Harvelle/Sam Winchester
“Hello, Dean,” Cas says, affection softening his voice, blue eyes making Dean’s legs go weak. It’s been five years, and he’s still just as hopelessly lost as when he blinked his eyes open, wet and exhausted and alive only by some miracle, to find Cas bent over him. It turned out it wasn’t a miracle that saved him that day. (Rated G, 1.4k)
don't let me go by @kitmistry, prompt: weeping wednesday
No archive warnings, post-canon, nightmares, light angst, hurt/comfort, sharing a bed, first kiss, Cas returns from the Empty
“Was it a nightmare?” Dean rakes a hand through Castiel’s hair, the touch grounding him more than the sight of this familiar place. He turns towards it, chasing the comfort Dean gives so easily, and nods once. “The same again?” “As always.” (Rated T, 1.1k)
Frenzy by @peanutbutterjelly-pie, prompt: weeping wednesday
Alternate Universe, Hurt/Comfort, Caregiver Dean, Fluff, Writer Castiel
After Sam gets involved in a car accident Dean finds himself in an utter frenzy. Thankfully Cas shows up just at the right time. (Rated G, 1.8k)
for good by @deansrightfulangerissue, prompt: weeping wednesday

Cas made a deal with the Empty, and he never said a word. (Rated T, 0.8k)
irresistible by @kitmistry, prompt: thirsty thursday
Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, Strangers to Lovers, Porn With Plot, Alternate Universe - Celebrity, Celebrity Castiel, Top Castiel (Supernatural), Bottom Dean Winchester, Anal Sex
"Well, hello there, Mr. Dark-and-Handsome. Dean can spy what is surely a demi-god, talking with a few ladies across the room. The ladies all coo, and blush, and cling to him with adoration written into every curve of their shapely bodies. The demi-god, though, is cool and aloof. He smiles politely at them, but doesn’t single any of them out. Doesn’t even really look like he’s paying that much attention to them, actually. His strikingly blue eyes scan the room every now and then, without focusing on any person or art piece in particular. The demi-god turns his face so he’s looking somewhere to Dean’s left, and holy. fucking. shit. That’s Castiel Novak! The movie star!" (Rated E, 1.5k)
Seduction Technique by @peanutbutterjelly-pie, prompt: thirsty thursday
Explicit Sexual Content, Bottom Castiel, Top Dean, PWP, Cocky Dean, Bickering like an Old Married Couple, Established Relationship, Bad Poetry
Dean's seduction methods are awful. But somehow still effective with a certain blue-eyed angel. (Rated E, 3.3k)
Ears to See; Eyes to Hear by DisenchantedHalo, prompt: thirsty thursday
Explicit Sexual Content, Porn with Plot, blow jobs, hand jobs, poet Cas, painter Dean, AU - Historical
Poet Castiel Milton admires Dean Winchester's art. When he walks by the artist's open door one evening he is struck by how the artist's good looks outshine his art. However, Dean has an inherent dislike of poets, especially those Romantic types. He doesn't work with male models either. Thinking it will get rid of Castiel, Dean tells him to get his patron (Countess Bradbury) to commission the sitting. Dean is convinced that his patron will turn Castiel down. What happens when two weeks later Castiel turns up with a commission from the countess and an instruction for Dean to listen to Castiel's poetry first? Come on, it's a smut fit. We all know what happens next, right? (Rated E, 3.9k)
love you like you're leaving by @kitmistry, prompt: friday firsts
Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, Mafia AU, Mafia Boss Castiel, Soulmate AU, enemies to lovers, meet cute, canon typical violence, minor character death
While all the other kids in his school look at the counter on the inside of their wrists, daydreaming about the day the number of steps will reach zero and they’ll finally get to meet their soulmate, Castiel does the exact opposite. He spends as much time as he can not looking at it. (Rated M, 1.8k)
Guardian Angel by @peanutbutterjelly-pie, prompt: friday firsts
Canon Divergence, Angst, Angst with a Happy Ending, First Meetings, 3x16 divergent
It'll only be minutes until Dean's time on earth's gonna run out. Until the hellhound will walk around the corner and drag him with it into the pit of pain and despair. Until the demons and monsters will claim his soul. But just as he is about to face his end all of a sudden something unexpected happens and Dean starts to wonder if he's seriously worth to be saved after all. (Rated T, 1.6k)
An Introduction Would Have Been…Nice by DisenchantedHalo, prompt: friday firsts
Alternate Universe; Office; Military Sci-Fi; Military Pilot Castiel; Mentions of being at War; Oblivious Dean; Confused Dean; Swearing; Hopeful Ending
Dean Winchester's day is ruined when he gets a new boss in his role as an administrator in the Fleet Support Department. Some asshole ruins it further when they make him spill coffee over his shirt. Imagine how his heart sinks when he finds out that the boss and the asshole are one and the same — Lieutenant Commander Castiel Novak. Does Dean's day get any better when the two finally meet formally? (Rated T, 5.2k)

Window Across the Galaxy ✧*:・゚updated 1/17
18+ only | rocket x f!oc | 25/27 chapters | wip| word count: pending. ♡ check the masterlist for expected updates ♡ ♡ see the "holiday special" ⋆꙳•̩̩͙❅*̩̩͙‧͙ Winter Across the Galaxy * ‧͙*̩̩͙❆ ͙͛ ˚₊⋆ [new 12/5] ♡
see new fan art of my girl jo! a few gorgeous sketches by @moonnpiie ♡♡♡♡ and a Chapter XXIV jo by @frostedwitch ♡♡♡♡
girl falls first; racoon falls harder.
Rocket isn’t sure how he continues to be surprised by her, or how he never seems to anticipate her next move, especially when — cosmically speaking — Jo’s the most predictable frickin’ person he knows. For one damn thing, she is constantly dropping down to the ground in front of him: in front of the cage with a plateful of food. In the streets of Conjunction. By his bed while he slept. The very first time she’d used her mouth on him. And then the next time, too. That whole experience had been so brain-melting he still isn’t sure he’ll ever recover. But for whatever reason, when she sits down at the foot of his chair this time and takes his hands in her own — so carefully — his heart is suddenly, unexpectedly, in his throat. He can’t breathe around it, can’t swallow. When she starts speaking, he already knows what she’s going to say. He can feel it in the air, like static electricity building toward a spark. Because, just as she’d said, she’d already told him a million times before. With and without words. But still. He can’t breathe. And once she’s done confessing, and gives him two kisses — one pressed into each palm, to keep — she looks at him patiently and shifts like she’s about to rise to her feet and go about her night, like she’s not expecting anything back. Because of course she’s not.
[NEW 1/9] ✧・゚:*Chapter XXV. Little Love Stories. in which both of our heroes learn a little about themselves. ❤︎
i know there are parts of this don't read smoothly (sorry sorry sorry) but in general i am so so so happy with this chapter. drax. (╥﹏╥) we have two more chapters to go, which is.... kinda making me cry tbh. i already miss these two idiots so much. ~♡
explicit lines or references* abbreviated explicit sequences ❤︎ detailed/prolonged explicit sequences ❤︎❤︎
General summary/notes + links to recently preceding chapters behind the cut.
let me know via comment, message, or ask if you'd like to be added or removed from my fanfic taglist ♡
Rocket is captured by a Ravager crew hoping to get rich off the excessively large bounty on his head. Throwing a wrench in everyone’s plans is the Terran girl they hired to do some freelance assessing on a recent haul of goods they’ve seized from a Xandaran luxury liner. Oops.
slight AU starting pre-GOTG volume 1 (but will hit most of the same major plot points). slow burn + eventual smut with a lot of pining in the middle. kinda enemies-to-lovers? (but only one of these idiots thinks they're enemies).
let me be real with you: this fic is really about wish-fulfillment. not just the eventual smut (but that too). mostly i just want someone to be nice to my best boy raccoon
*・゚:*✧・゚:*✧*:・゚✧*:・゚*
Chapter I. A Delicacy. in which our reluctant heroes meet atop a crate of Sovereign porn in the bowels of a Ravager ship.
Chapter II. Monster For A Pet. in which one hero wrestles with his inner Groot, and the other is quite possibly a moron.
Chapter III. A Kindness. in which Rocket gets in his own damn way: not for the first time, and certainly not for the last.
Chapter IV. Got There First. in which our heroes obtain an arsenal and street food.
Chapter V. Things No-One Has Said Before. in which one hero refuses to babysit and the other refuses to leave.
Chapter VI. Two and a Half Billion Units.in which we lean into the “they were roommates” trope. Jolie has misgivings, while Rocket has fantasies - about getting rich, of course.
Chapter VII. I'm Here. in which we visit Knowhere.
Chapter VIII. The Care & Feeding of Human Pets. in which our heroes practice breathing and we lean into a new trope: “there was (technically) one bed.”
Chapter IX. Scrapmetal and a Dream. in which we redefine homemaking.
Chapter X. Thin Fucking Ice. in which our heroes get fucked. Not in the good way.
Chapter XI. Let It Be. in which Xandar is saved and good lives are lost.
Chapter XII. So Much It Hurts. in which we try not to fuck up the vibes.
Chapter XIII. Don’t Wait. in which a lost sister is found and Drax grapples with the concept of sarcasm.
Chapter XIV. Exactly Like a Flower. in which comfort is shared.
Chapter XV: Galaxy-Breaking Shit. in which more comfort is shared, and life is good. Briefly.
Chapter XVI. Run. in which Rocket falls victim to his superstitions.
Chapter XVII. A Seedling. A Fox. A Little Girl. in which the party is divided.
Chapter XVIII. I Happen to Know a Guy. in which our heroes get fucked. Again. Still not in the good way.
Chapter XIX. He Was Loved. in which a planet is killed, a friend is made and lost, and nobody still has any frickin’ tape.
Chapter XX. Some Nerve. *in which an ultimatum is given.
Chapter XXI. I Very Still. ❤︎❤︎ in which our heroes get fucked. In the good way, this time. Finally.
Chapter XXII. Got There Worse. ❤︎❤︎ in which Rocket does not say "I love you."
Chapter XXIII. We're Gonna Need a Bigger Table. ❤︎ in which the galaxy continues to spin.
Chapter XXIV. Space Would Be Better. ❤︎❤︎ in which Rocket ~discreetly~ claims the title of boyfriend.
Chapter XXV. Little Love Stories. * in which both of our heroes learn a little bit about themselves.
Chapter XXVI. Other Side of the Window. ❤︎
Chapter XXV. The Most Beautiful Thing in My House. ❤︎❤︎
⋆꙳•̩̩͙❅*̩̩͙‧͙ Winter Across the Galaxy * ‧͙*̩̩͙❆ ͙͛ ˚₊⋆A Holiday Special *
Epilogue: Interviewing Rocket & Jo. ten years after Window ends. short/drabbly, silly fluff.
explicit lines or references* abbreviated explicit sequences ❤︎ detailed/prolonged explicit sequences ❤︎❤︎

a decade in fic: 2011-2020
following @denugis' lead
The game is just to pick your favorite fic you posted in each year for a decade.
2011: All Our Wrath and Cutting Beauty (gencest Sam/demon!Dean; mature, 6K) This fic holds such intense nostalgia for me. For one thing, it's the first bang @quickreaver and I did together, and I will never forget setting my alarm for 2am to claim her awesome prompt-piece of demon Dean and yellow-eyed Sam. 
2012: Wow what a hard year to pick just one. I can't, I refuse! The two that tie for favorite this year are Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea (Sam & Dean, 9k; Teen, art by @quickreaver) This is a Sam has always been Lucifer AU of season 5 and one of the first humorous fics I wrote. I'm so very fond of it and QR's art is just spectacular. and Burdens, Doublefold (Sam & Brady, Dean/ Jo, Mature, 67k; co-written with @quickreaver, art by ileliberte)  A remix of seasons 1 & 2 where Sam teams up with Brady to take down Azazel and Dean teams up with the Roadhouse crew. 
2013: again such a hard year to pick just one! Argh. I think I will cheat and go with my favorite series from that year since it includes two fics I'm very happy with: Counteroffer The first fic, by the same title, is psychological horror with unreliable narrator Dean, and its sequel, The King's Guard, Andy's POV, set mostly in Hell with King of Hell Sam, of course. (Sam & Dean, 8k, Mature for horror elements) 
2014: He Who Fights Monsters (Sam/Ruby, Explicit, 52k), because it's probably the fic of mine that I go back to re-read most often. Co-written with nwspaprtaxis and with art by @quickreaver this is a season 3 MMA AU where Sam literally fights demons to break Dean's soul out of Hell.
2015: Bad Becomes Worse (Bucky Barnes/ Steve Rogers; Explicit, 17k ) post-Zola angsty Bucky. This is probably my favorite MCU fic I wrote. Bucky POV after Zola experimented on him up to and through his Winter Soldier years.
2016: How They Make You a Weapon (Bucky Barnes; Mature; 35k) I love this fic so much. It's the first and longest Bucky fic I wrote, set in the Winter Soldier's POV, the first and only second person fic I ever wrote.  This fic had updates from 2014-2017, but 2016 is when it was pretty much completed. It also has this amazing comic adaptation by the incomparable @luckyraeve 
2017: The Long Road to Lynbrook (Bucky Barnes/ Steve Rogers; Teen, 9k) If you had told me when I first started writing MCU fic that I would write a frog prince AU and it would be one of my favorite fics, I would've had some serious doubts but omg when you LOOK at how cute @artgroves prompt art of steve holding frog!Bucky was, you'll see why I couldn't resist. 
2018: Wedding Party (Eddie Brock/Venom, Teen, 2K) I love writing Venom fic so much. It's such a fun world to play in, but this fic in particular was just sheer joy. Possibly also the funniest fic I've written. You tell me. 
2019: His Soul to Keep (Sam/Dean; Mature; 13k)  I had to take an extended break from Supernatural after the heartbreak that was seasons 8 & 9, and jumped ship after early season 10. This fic, though it's a season 3 AU is definitely where I processed all of that heartbreak. @sketchydean made some truly spectacular art for it too.  
2020: On His Head a Crown (Sam/Brady, Sam & Dean, Mature; 20k) End!Verse utopian-dystopia AU. This was a fic I'd wanted to write for years and it was so satisfying to finally get it down, but @slytherkins gorgeous art made it sooo much better.
Consider yourselves tagged!

some jess lives au (not that other v cool jess lives au where sam doesn't make it) thots...
jess doesn't have contact with her parents. tbh i think her dad was military and she had some experiences moving around a lot and fielding orders that didn't make sense to her. she moves out after high school and doesn't contact them again.
she ends up in california working for a year or two before going to college. she gets most of the tuition paid of through scholarships and keeps a waitressing job on the side to afford everything else
genuinely enjoys more feminine things but also picked up on some card games, could probably beat sam at pool, too. also a great runner.
does well in stem and was convinced into pursuing something in healthcare by her parents, started to switch over to political science in like sophomore year
if sam got into law school she was going to work full time for a bit once she graduated and apply herself
tries to put on airs of sophistication in an ironic way but sam and their friends know she loves bubblegum pop and ya novels over jazz, fine art, and Serious Books
she does read feminist lit on occasion and gets sam into it
talks about all the healthy food they could be eating and how she probably should become a vegetarian but ends up liking burgers and barbecue a little too much to commit for longer than like two weeks.
when she realizes the supernatural world exists it takes her brain a while to officially come to terms with her boyfriend having a completely different side to him and this world she's now immersed in.
eventually though she does think about how hunters get the rare ability to see a tangible difference their work makes
she slowly begins to think that hunting might be better than a mundane, "safe" life because she can actually make an impact on others and actively save them in ways that being a nurse or lawyer can't touch
is also horrified at the fact that hunters can be judge jury and executioner - especially when she sees monsters that aren't pure evil that others would kill anyway
she ends up instigating a break between her and sam because he still fights this lifestyle tooth and nail and she wants to become someone who can help instead of the girlfriend stuck in the car or a warded motel room
maybe ends up meeting jo and they have a hunting thing going on for a bit. they're both inexperienced and get the shit kicked out of them at first but they have each other's backs
tbh doesn't like cars but can kind of work with them and she probably ends up with a volkswagen or subaru
she and dean have a weird dynamic since they represent these different sides of sam and they don't posture or anything but it is Weird. after like two weeks they become friends tho. sam kind of hates it bc they both like to tease him or crack each other up and distract from the issue at hand
overall jess doesn't always know if she'd do things over the same way if she had the chance. being a hunter is isolating and gruelling. it's not the life she grew up in or one she chose. but it is one she finds power in, freedom, too. and she still has family.
