The King's Affection

This 20 episode long series is a different kind of historical fiction involving royalty. Fraternal twins switching roles. The wrong sibling gets killed and the one who was supposed to have died becomes the king. It is a love story rather than a regular historical drama that focuses on the politics. In this series, politics become secondary to the love story which made this story refreshing in that sense. I liked all the characters surrounding Lee Hwi / Dami - they were loyal and loved her.

Conflicts felt realistic within the plot and coupe at the end left us with a new king, a man who had never wanted to be king but was the only choice after the others died. Lee Hyun, was Lee Hwi's cousin and the son of the king Lee Hwi's father had taken out of the throne. But Lee Hyun had never minded, he loved Lee Hwi and their friendship meant the world to him.

I liked the ending because it gives a happy ending to the couple and we see everyone else happy. And to see all the friends together in the end was nice.

It's a beautiful love story set in the Joseon Era and less bloody than usual historical fiction. I really liked it.

Comparable to: Secret (kdrama) ; Flower of Evil (kdrama)

A highly emotional rollercoaster border lining a wee lil bit on being over the top sometimes melodrama. It’s sooooooooooooo good though. I mean for me this is one of those hidden rare underrated gems that need to be hyped up more. I had no idea that it came out in 2020 being swept under the rug during the pandemic. It’s a very bing’ble show. Hell I almost watched the entire series in one setting. The entire cast did a remarkable amazing job, the ‘grandmother’ being played by her part brilliantly of one of the best villains, where you absolutely loathe her and cursing her left and right. Then to her opposite you have one of the best strong female leads I’ve seen in a long time played by Lee Yoo Ri (loved her equally in My Father is Strange) who kicked ass. I don’t know if I could’ve of gone through what she did as a character. She was dealt a bad hand in this one. Overall the drama is more intended for more of a maturer audience for its abusive themes and darker  material. It really is well written and highly recommended.

Asian male leads that went against the norms and redefined thirst traps for you?

For me it was lee joon gi from flower of evil! Who is the genius tell me!!! That decided to make this meticulous, detail oriented crafty man who is painted as a violent sociopath but turns out to be a huuuuuge softie in need of love and just wants to make his family happy and get some cuddles and stuff

my brain's a little too fuzzy right now so idk about going against the norms, but here's some favorite Characters That Are Just Hot

ma dong seok as yoon sang hwa | train to busan

he loves his wife and unborn baby. he wears a fancy lil scarf. he'll punch you into the roof of a train car. the sheer bruhery of this guy.

jang hyuk as park gye won | bloody heart

look this whole post could just be jang hyuk characters (his character in chuno i think is the quintessential definition of a thirst trap), but this character gets a special shout-out because he works the least sexiest outfit of Royal Minister for the duration of the drama and also the atrocities??

wi ha joon as choi do il | little women

the clown wigs i wore throughout this entire drama because of this guy. sort of like a human trojan horse but snaccify it. being toxic in his little outfits 10/10

chen kun as ning yi | the rise of phoenixes

mansplain. manipulate. malewife. "chen kun with long hair" is a Movement.

shin sung rok as kim seo jin | kairos

when you like them flawed and morally ambiguous and in desperate need of a divorce. "i can fix him" but if fixing him required you to probably stab someone in an infinite time loop down the road

shin ha kyun as lee dong sik | beyond evil

he's done nothing wrong in his entire life except for perhaps inspiring the thousands of morally ambiguous daddy complexes that emerged from this drama

BONUS! some ladies

ha ji won as sung nyang | empress ki

she'll get your whole family killed and ruin your career and you'll thank her for it

lee si young as seo yi kyung | sweet home

ma'am.

kim ok bin as taealha | arthdal chronicles

she's scary (appreciative)

Danielson tweets what a great interview Moxley is (October 1, 2010)

Moxley shoots on how great Danielson is (Audio, November 12, 2010)

Fun facts/notes:

-In two promos leading up to DGUSA, Mox focuses on Bryan’s use of the Lebell Lock, how he’s been “throwing it out left and right”, and saying he “called it” when Danielson uses it as his finisher to win the US Championship. It ends up being the finisher Bryan defeats Mox with at their DGUSA match.

-They would not face each other again until 2011, this time as Dean Ambrose and Daniel Bryan in WWE.

-Under these names they’d go on to have 87 matches with one another between the years of 2011-2015. 80 matches were fought against one another —the majority as part of a tag team, trios or more. 7 of the matches were singles. Link

-They also had one WWE match as a tag team in 2018, as part of a Tribute to the Troops special. Link

-“Daniel Bryan” was the very first person “Dean Ambrose” fought in WWE after being signed to his developmental deal in 2011. They had two back to back house shows in December 2011, in Florida and Long Island, NY. Bryan won both. Clip of the first match. Entrances from the second match. Clip from second match.

-As of March 2012, Dean Ambrose had yet to make his first TV appearance in WWE but Daniel Bryan was singing his praises. (quote and audio post on tumblr)

-They would not face each other in a match as “Jon Moxley” and “Bryan Danielson” again until March 6, 2022.

-Jon Moxley was not incorrect in his February 16, 2022 Dynamite promo when he said he’d never beaten “Bryan Danielson,” despite having wins over “Daniel Bryan” while part of The Shield and beating him once as “Dean Ambrose” in a solo match in 2013 by DQ.

-Mox uses many callbacks from these early promos in his aforementioned Dynamite promo (which I’ve done an edit of here)

-In 2018, Bryan detailed the events of their first meeting, which is near verbatim to Mox’s promo. He says they had “instant chemistry”. Link He also mentioned this in a different interview during 2018. Quote (along with video)

-In his first DGUSA promo Mox says he wants “something more” with Bryan. During the match, after making Danielson bleed, the commentator calls back to that promo and suggests the something more Moxley wanted is blood. In the Dynamite promo Mox says “It just made me want it more” and he ends the promo with “I don’t stand beside no one until I bleed with them first.”

-In their August 2010 match Mox kisses Bryan’s arm. In their September 2010 match, he kisses his mouth. Link

-At DGUSA, the ring apparently disappeared and they had to scrabble to get another one. Mox and Bryan both started getting excited about doing the match without one and even pitched the idea together of how they could do the show instead. Link

-It appears people thought Moxley was referring to their August 2010 match in his February 2022 Dynamite promo (thinking it was their first meeting) and not their 2007 one. I’ve updated the Blackpool Combat Club Wikipedia page to reflect this.

SEVEN FIRST KISSES // KDRAMA DİZİ YORUMU

UYARI : Yazılar genel olarak spoiler içerebilir. İçermeyedebilir.

Drama: Seven First Kisses

Hangul: 첫키스만 일곱번째

Director: Jung Jung-hwa

Date: 2016

Language: Korean

Country: South Korea

Cast: Lee Cho-hee, Choi Ji-woo, Lee Joon-gi, Park Hae-jin, Ji Chang-wook, Kim Jong-in, Ok Taec-yeon, Lee Jong-suk, Lee Min-ho

Aslında bu minik diziye yorum yapmak pek mantıklı değil ama izlemişken minikten anlatayım. İlk başta üniversite bitirme projesi gibi gelmişti. Sonra öğrendim ki meğer dizi reklam filmi olarak çekilmiş. Lotte World tanıtım amaçlı böyle bir fikir atmış ortaya. Her sene birkaç ünlü ile çektikleri reklam filmini bir tık öteye götüren firma 9 farklı ünlü ile çalışma fırsatı yakalamış.

Kadın karakterimiz Lee Cho-hee, Lotte Duty Free'de danışmada çalışıyor. 25 yaşına gelmiş ancak hiç ciddi ilişkisi olmamış bu yaşına kadar hiç öpüşmemiş. Bir gün bilmeden yardım ettiği Choi Ji-woo ona bir dilek hakkı veriyor. Karakterimiz ise dillendirmese de bir erkek arkadaşı olmasını ve “first kiss” anını yaşamak istediğini içinden geçiriyor. Gizemli kadın rolündeki Choi Ji-woo da ona 6 adet kart verip 10sn içinde mükemmel bir adamla tanışacağını söylüyor ve ortadan kayboluyor.

8-12dakikadan oluşan 8 bölümlük bir seri izliyoruz. Her bölüm başka bir ünlü ile bir gün geçiren kadın oyuncumuz, yakışıklı erkeklerle yakınlaşıp tam öpüşmek üzereyken yeni bir güne geçiyor. ünlülerimiz ise kendi isimleriyle ama farklı karakterler ile karşımıza çıkıyor.

İlk sahneye gelen isim Lee Joon-gi oluyor. Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo ve The Flower of Evil dizilerinde kendine hayran bırakan “Bay Mükemmel”! karakteri küçüklüğünden beri kızımıza aşık olan çok zengin, kibar ve düşünceli bir erkeği canlandırıyor.

Hemen arkasından Park Hae-jin geliyor. My Love From the Star ve Cheese in the Trap gibi dizilerde dikkatleri üzerine çeken “Romantik Patron”! Uzaktan başrolümüzü izleyen, koruyan tehlikeli ve sahiplenici bir erkeği canlandırıyor.

Üçüncü yakışıklımız ise Ji Chang-wook. The sound of magic, Healer, K2, Backstreet Rookie gibi dizilerden tanıdığımız kaslı oyuncu “Seksi Gizli ajan” rolünde karşımıza çıkıyor. Hikayeye göre başrolümüz ile eski ajanlar ve bir görev sırasında Lee Cho-hee ile tekrar buluşmak zorunda kalıyor.

Aksiyonlu idolümüzü geride bıraktıktan sonra Kpop grubu EXO’nun üyesi olan Kim Jong-in, nam-ı diğer KAI’ye sıra geliyor. “Büyüleyici Öğrenci” rolü ile sahneye çıkıyor. Çinceyi çok iyi bilen başrolümüz sözde Kai’nin dil öğretmenliğini yapıyormuş.

Hemen arkasından, Ok Taec-yeon tehlikeli cazibesi ile bize doğru yürüyor. Vincenzo dizisindeki eşsiz oyunculuğu ile tanıdığımız bu isim “Zengin ailenin masum oğlu” rolüne bürünüyor. Hikayeye göre kızımız ile uzun süredir sevgililer ve ailesi kızımızı kabul etmiyor.

Hız kesmeden sahneyi Lee Jong-suk alıyor. W: Two Worlds Apart ve Romance is a Bonus Book dizilerinde sevdiğimiz ama Big Mouth dizisinde tekrar tekrar kendine hayran bırakan oyuncumuz burada da yine ünlü bir yıldızı canlandırıyor. Başrolümüz ile reklam filmi çektikleri bir kurguda yakınlaşmalarını izliyoruz.

Ve 6 kartımız bittikten sonra tam birini seçmesi gerekirken, sürpriz bir 7.kart ortaya çıkıyor; “Özgür Ruhlu Gezgin” Lee Min Ho. The Legend of the Blue Sea ve The King: Eternal Monarch dizilerinden tanıdığımız aktör diğer 6 yakışıklının aksine kızı tanımıyor. Kendisi ünlü bir yazar olarak bulunuyor.

Lee Cho-hee’nin ismini ve cismini ilk kez gördüm. Tek söyleyebileceğim şanslı olduğu 😊 güzel olmayan hatta bence aktörlerin yanında fazla yaşlı kalan bir oyuncuydu. Reklam filmi olmasından dolayı çok yorum yapmaya gerek yok. İzleyici bakımından keyifli 1 saat geçirmemizi sağlayan ilginç bir seri olmuş diyebilirim.

Extraordinary You

"Dipenderà dalla prospettiva da cui lo vedi. Guarda il mondo dalla tua prospettiva, allora sarai il personaggio principale."

Come maratonarsi una serie in 3 giorni.

Mado' Extraordinary You mi ha letteralmente rapita. Sequestrata. Merito di una trama originale, un ottima fotografia, buon cast, eccellenti personaggi quasi tutti, ma soprattutto grazie all'idea di base e come è stata portata su schermo. Un applauso davvero.

La serie parte benissimo, in modo originale, divertente e interessante con gli episodi che scorrono via uno dietro l'altro. Andando avanti con la storia però, per me è leggermente calato: si perde la leggerezza ed il divertimento per lasciare spazio al dramma e alle situazioni serie.

I due protagonisti della storia, che inizialmente mi piacevano molto, mano a mano sono sempre più scesi nel mio personale indice di gradimento trovandomi dunque a fare il tifo e sentirmi emotivamente investita con i personaggi secondari piuttosto che quelli principali.

La storia d'amore parte in modo carino, costruito e romantico. Le loro scene sono super sentimentali, fatte benissimo e senti l'amore a 10 kilometri di distanza. Tuttavia andando avanti con la storia, la loro relazione mi ha un po' annoiata, trovandola ripetitiva, troppo perfetta e smielosa per i miei gusti. Tanto che mi sono concentrata su tutt'altro.

Ma oh, se me la sono maratonata in pochi giorni un motivo c'è: poiché scrivere commenti sensati e lineari non è da me, andrò per punti:

L'idea dell'essere dentro ad un fumetto non è una novità nel panorama televisivo. Ma ho trovato super interessante sia come hanno trattato il concetto di "palcoscenico " e "ombra" sia come i personaggi prendessero coscienza di se stessi, portando poi su schermo, battaglie emotive sulla loro esistenza e identità. E' stato molto piacevole vedere i personaggi, uno ad uno, capire di essere personaggi di un fumetto e vederli relazionarsi con questo. Tutta la parte circa il fumetto, le regole che lo disciplinano, i clichè dei storie romantiche, le bizze dello scrittore... questa è stata forse la parte che mi ha coinvolto di più.

Mi chiedevo per quale motivo lo scrittore avesse fatto un manga così banale. Cioè, la trama è Hana Yori Dango, più o meno. XD Persino i personaggi potevano capire quale scena sarebbe andata sul palcoscenico! Forse la storia del fumetto era così scontata proprio perché non era la parte importante della storia. In tal modo la serie si è concentrata sulla storia degli altri personaggi permettendo di non perdere minutaggio su una trama così ovvia, che era scritta nelle stelle.

Ho amato anche il concetto sull'essere protagonisti della propria storia. Quando si scopre di essere degli extra si può decidere di diventare i primi attori del proprio racconto personale. Gli extra non possono essere i main lead del fumetto...ma possono esserlo della loro storia. E' un bel significato.

Ho rivalutato tantissimo la protagonista del fumetto. La Cenerella che impersonava la classica protagonista femminile da shojo ma che alla fine si rivela una piccola mafiosa badass quanto basta per farsi valere e amare da me. Carinissima anche la sua relazione con Do Hwa, molto naturale e romantica.

Interessante anche il concetto dello stare sul palcoscenico ed essere costretti a recitare una parte che non si vuole. Finché i personaggi non hanno coscienza non c'è problema nello stare sul palco. Ma una volta capito di essere dentro ad un fumetto è frustrante fare e dire cose che non pensi e non vuoi solo perché qualcuno ha deciso così. Credo che la serie abbia reso in modo ottimale questo tema visto che ho percepito davvero tanta frustrazione da parte dei characters consapevoli nelle loro scene sul palcoscenico.

Tornando a Lee Do Hwa è stato uno dei miei personaggi preferiti. Lo scrittore voleva caratterizzarlo come un clichè del second lead bello, gentile, serio, pacato ecc ecc.. ma nella realtà era adorabilmente scemo. Ho amato i suoi dialoghi e la sua personalità divertente e brillante nonché il suo rapporto con la Dan Oh: insieme erano spassosi!

La serie mischia momenti intensi e tristi con scene più divertenti e comiche - soprattutto all'inizio - che spezzano la tensione e alleggeriscono la storia. Ritengo che su questo frangente abbiano fatto un bel lavoro anche se sul finale si perde la spensieratezza e divertimento per affogare in un mare di serietà.

Per quanto riguarda Dan Oh dunque, mi è piaciuta molto inizialmente. Ho adorato la sua personalità vivace e certi suoi commenti irriverenti. Vederla impazzire per la scoperta di essere in un fumetto mi ha fatto morire dalle risate più e più volte. Ho ammirato la sua determinazione e testardaggine nel voler cambiare il proprio destino anche quando le dicevano di non farlo. Ma...ma...ma poi s'innamora. Da quando inizia la sua storia con Haru il suo personaggio mi è lentamente scivolato nella noia poiché sembrava girasse unicamente intorno ad protagonista maschile. Voleva cambiare la sua impostazione per se stessa, per la sua identità, per autodeterminarsi. Ed invece mi è sembrato che alla fine volesse cambiarla solo per stare con Haru. D'altra parte però non mi sento di essere troppo cattiva con lei: è la sua prima cotta, il suo primo amore. E' normale che tutto ad un certo punto. giri attorno a questo.

Chi invece ho avuto difficoltà a mandare giù è stato proprio Haru. Chiariamoci, Haru è perfetto: bello, intelligente, gentile, premuroso, comprensivo, presente, simpatico, romantico...è perfetto. Troppo perfetto per i miei gusti. Il protagonista maschile di questa storia non pare abbia difetti, zone grigie o d'ombra. E per questo, mentre inizialmente mi incuriosiva il suo personaggio, piano piano mi ha stancato.

E questo si è poi riflettuto sulla storia d'amore. Ho provato davvero tanto a farmela piacere ma... nada. Non ho mai sentito il click, l'investimento emotivo. Poiché erano perfetti assieme e grondavano miele fuso non c'è mai stato conflitto, tensione, pepe nella loro storia d'amore. Tanto che i classici impedimenti sono stati tutti esterni alla coppia: perdita di memoria, cancellazione del personaggio ecc ecc.. Io ovviamente sono contenta per Haru e Dan Oh: buon per loro che hanno trovato l'amore! Ma ahimè non credo che vinceranno mai nella mia personale classifica delle coppie preferite.

Chi invece vincerà tutto è probabilmente Baek Kyung. Già l'anno scorso Lee Jae Wook era arrivato ad un passo dal vincere il premio " attore migliore dell'anno". Questa volta punta decisamente alla vittoria grazie ad una recitazione fantastica. Non mentirò: Baek è stato uno dei motivi che mi ha dato la forza di finire la serie. Ad una certa mi sono resa conto che sì, volevo sapere come sarebbe finita la serie...ma ancor di più ero curiosa di vedere quale piega avrebbe preso la sua storia.

La sua caratterizzazione e storia le ho trovate le più interessanti di tutte, così come il suo splendido arco di redenzione nel finale. Ho sofferto parecchio nel rendermi conto che alla fine Baek Kyung sarebbe rimasto da solo - ok ho pianto nelle sue scene finali - più che altro perché come da sottotitolo di questo commento, era diventato il mio personaggio principale. E vedere il "tuo lead" che capisce di aver sbagliato, chiedere scusa, comprendere di essere stato uno stronzo bastardo ed essere arrivato tardi alla realizzazione e affrontare un arco di redenzione ma alla fine non ottenere il lieto fine, ti fa un po' male. Se Baek fosse stato il protagonista di un altra serie probabilmente avrebbe ottenuto di più. Ma non lo è e va bene così. Sono già contenta che abbia avuto il suo riscatto...anche perché ne ha parecchie da farsi perdonare. Non scordo quanto a trattato a merda la sua fidanzata sia sul palcoscenico che nell'ombra! Un vero stronzo! E spero davvero, come gli dice Dan Oh, che alla fine trovi il vero se stesso e sia felice. <3 Tra l'altro adoravo le scene di Dan Oh e Beak Kyung da bambini: erano tenerissimi!

Conclusione: drama da vedere assolutamente anche solo per l'idea dell'essere parte di un manga e contemplare come si muovono i personaggi dentro a esso. A me la storia d'amore non è piaciuta ma magari farà innamorare altre persone che la adoreranno. Quindi consigliato per chi cerca storie d'amore. E poi c'è Lee Jae Wook in tutta la sua gloria...cioè che vuoi di più?!

Story: 7

Acting: 8

Chemistry: 8

Comparable to: Can You Hear My Heart (kdrama) ; Good Doctor (kdrama)

Turn your brain off and go with the flow. This drama is highly highly overly dramatic, think telenova, makjang, soap opera. Nothing follows through really with the storyline, so many plot holes, and the characters are dumb down to village idiots, except one character who apparently can get away with murder….seriously. OverallI couldn’t stop watching the series, it’s addictive as heck especially if you’re into this type of drama. Warning though, it’s over 100 episodes long.

2022 Fic Year in Review

Alright y'all, time for one of my favourite new year activities- looking back at all of the weird shit I wrote last year! I always love being able to look back and see all the things I've created and the progress I've made. So without further ado, here it is: Your Local Trash Goblin's 2022 Fic Year in Review!

Fandoms Written For: Inception (6), The Batman (2), Star Wars Rebels (1), The Guest (2), Encanto (1), Kingdom (1)

Total Word Count: 231,264

Fic With the Most Comments: With Words I Thought I'd Never Speak

Fic With the Most Bookmarks: A Remedy for Sadness

Fic I'm Proudest Of: Mile Deep Hollow

January

A Remedy for Sadness

Fandom: Encanto

Rating: General

Word Count: 3.5k

Summary: Julieta healed injuries and sicknesses with the food she made. But more than that, she used her food to show love.

I went through a brief period where I, like many on Tumblr, was absolutely obsessed with Bruno we don't talk about him and this was the result lol. I had a really fun time writing the sibling dynamic between Bruno and Julieta since that's not a dynamic I necessarily end up writing very often

February

Title: One Hand Above the Skin (My Head Below the Water)

Fandom: The Guest (Choi Yoon/Hwa-pyung)

Rating: Teen

Word Count: 3.4k

Summary: Choi Yoon had been told over and over that facing evil directly took a permanent toll on one's mind and soul. Park Il-do was gone but his minions weren't, and Yoon found himself starting down several roads he wasn't sure he could come back from in an attempt to handle it

My K-drama obsession during internship interviews lol. Excellent show, highly recommend it

Title: Warmth Untouched by Cold

Fandom: Kingdom (Lee Chang/Yeong-shin)

Rating: General

Word Count: 2.3k

Summary: If someone had told Yeong-shin a year ago that he would willing stay by the side of a noble, he would have laughed in their face. Long months of travel and late nights around a fire had bred a sense of familiarity and companionship, though, and the more Yeong-shin came to know the former Crown Prince, the more he found himself caring for the very human man who existed behind the title

Decided to rewatch Kingdom as a post-internship match treat, and ended up revisiting an old WIP I had for it! Unironically one of the most beautiful shows I've ever watched, please do yourself a favour and watch it

March

Title: Only Human

Fandom: Star Wars Rebels (Kallus/Zeb)

Rating: General

Word Count: 41.7k

Summary: After two years in the rebellion, Kallus had finally found his place. It hadn't always been a smooth process, but he'd found enough acceptance to get by. That didn't mean he didn't still have a few secrets, though, secrets he'd kept for most of his life. Between the passage of time and the chaos of moving the base from Yavin IV to Hoth, keeping those secrets was about to get a lot harder. But maybe that wasn't the worst thing in the world

My entry for the 2022 Kalluzeb Minibang! I'd had the hc of Kallus being partially non-human for a while, and it was really fun to finally write a story to go with it. Plus it has some amazing art!

April

Title: Running Through My Veins Like Sin

Fandom: The Guest (Choi Yoon/Hwa-pyung)

Rating: Teen

Word Count: 32.2k (on-going)

On GOD I am going to finish this fic eventually, I promise agdkfjdh. I absolutely writing Yoon in this fic and I have a wonderful arc planned out for him, so I AM going to finish it. I just got distracted agdkd

Title: Comfort is a Heavy Blanket

Fandom: The Batman

Rating: General

Word Count: 2k

Summary: Alfred knew why Mr. Wayne had let an injured Carmine Falcone into his house to give him treatment, but that didn't mean he liked it. It was a dangerous situation, and the realization that five year old Bruce had witnessed all of it just made it worse

Oh The Batman. I saw you in theaters three times and you gripped me like a rabid animal. I absolutely loved Bruce and Alfred's relationship in this movie as well as the phenomenally Autistic Vibes(tm) of Battison

July (aka A Very Busy Month)

Title: With Words I Thought I'd Never Speak

Fandom: The Batman (Bruce/Martinez)

Rating: Teen

Word Count: 24.6k (on-going)

Summary: In the year following the Riddler's attacks, Martinez somehow found himself involved at least peripherally with two of Gotham's odder figures: Batman and Bruce Wayne. For all his initial dislike of Batman, a year's worth of cases resulted in a somewhat grudging respect for the vigilante's intelligence and investigative skill, even if he never quite became any less strange and unsettling. Martinez developed a new found appreciation for Bruce Wayne as well, an odd but likeable man who was pleasant to work with in his own awkward way. During an investigation into a death possibly connected to Penguin, Martinez accidentally learns that the two odd characters he's spent an increasing amount of time interacting with over the past year are actually the same person, who's far more complex (and far more human) than he'd ever realized

If I wasn't prepared for the death grip The Batman had on my brain, I DEFINITELY wasn't prepared for falling into the Bruce/Martinez dumpster fire. I love them so much. I also got distracted while writing this fic, but I have the basic plot points mapped out, and on GOD I will finish this one too

Title: As Warm As Whiskey (And Ten Times Better)

Summary: Watching Arthur get drunk was a process Eames had seen many times over the years, but that didn't make him enjoy it any less

It had been too long since I'd written for my Disaster Criminal Blorbos, but I was about to fix that lol. A short fic inspired by an Inception30DayChallenge prompt

Title: Such Great Heights

Fandom: Inception (Arthur/Eames)

Rating: General

Word Count: 51.5k

Summary: When the market crashed four years ago, things went to hell for a lot of people. Eames has done okay, though- his job as a reporter at the New York Herald Tribune was secure enough that he managed to keep it, and he was good enough at it that he made enough to get by. He has a strict rule, though: no photographers. Working with freelancers has always been a crapshoot, and it's only gotten worse over the past few years. When the Rockefellers insist on a photographer for the Tribune's upcoming story on their new building, though, Eames is forced to choose between dropping the best paying story he's had in four years or working with Arthur, the freelance photographer hired on the recommendation of Eames' editor, Dom. He's an odd man who clearly has a past and who, as Eames spends more time with him, is just maybe worth getting to know a bit better.

My entry for the 2022 Inception Big Bang! It was inspired by a combination of a real life photographer and a surprisingly fun horror movie about WWI zombie parasites (no parasites or zombies in the fic itself). I had a lot of fun writing it, and it has some amazing art!

The story of how Arthur and Mal met

A short prequel to Such Great Heights! Arthur and Mal's friendship wasn't a central part to the larger fic, but it was a relationship I found really interesting while developing the story and I wanted to expand on it a little more

Title: Relinquish

Fandom: Inception (Arthur/Eames)

Rating: Explicit

Word Count: 3.4k

Summary: Arthur liked to be in control, or at least on even footing with whoever he was interacting with. That was how he’d always been. Just…maybe not with Eames. The thought of letting someone else take control, letting Eames take control, was…different. Intriguing. Enticing. Enough so that he hadn’t been able to stop thinking about it. Maybe even imagining what it would be like, more often than he cared to admit over the recent weeks, and what had started as a bit of teasing had started to become more and more serious in his mind.

This one's literally just porn. I had a lot of fun writing it lol

Summary: Personal information wasn't something easily or freely shared in the world of extraction. But sometimes the risk of vulnerability was worth it

Trans Arthur and nonbinary Eames my beloved ^-^ this is the first entry into what will eventually become a series

Title: Mile Deep Hollow

Fandom: Inception (Arthur/Eames)

Rating: General

Word Count: 60.6k

Summary: Eames had worked countless jobs with Arthur over the years, enough that he had long since picked up on Arthur's on-job habits. Long hours, little sleep, too much work shoved into too little time- that's just what Arthur was like on jobs. The Fischer job felt...different though. Arthur didn't usually start jobs looking this tired or worn down, and his insistence that he was fine didn't usually ring this hollow. It was worrying, and Arthur's increasingly unconvincing reassurances weren't doing much to help.

Everyone in extraction had their limits, even Arthur. And Eames knew he was getting close to seeing what those limits really were.

This is the fic I'm proudest of this year. Not only is it the longest fic I've ever published, but it was also one that had been sitting in my WIPs folder for 2 or 3 years. I really loved the concept but had gotten distracted and never ended up finishing it at the time. I'm actually really glad I waited because I think I'm a stronger writer now, and this fic ended up better for it. It's one of the angstier fics I've written while still having a happy (or at least very hopeful) ending, and I'm really proud of how it ended up turning out

And that's it! Adjusting to my internship work schedule was a process so unfortunately that cut down on the amount of time/brain power I could spend writing, but I'm still super proud of what I put out this (last?) year. To ever increasing skills and another year of good writing!
