Author's Note: Thank you so much for sending in a request for my event đ„ș It means a lot to me! YES, we need more Crosshair & Mayday. I love those two so much as brothers. Mayday deserved way more screen time than he got đ Please enjoy this bit of brotherly bonding time đ
âWhat are you doing?â Mayday asks with a puzzled look on his face.
Crosshair scowls at the older clone for calling him out on his obvious lack of sewing skills.
âCome here,â Mayday gestures. âLet me fix it.â
âI would have gotten it eventually,â Crosshair mumbles and folds his arms.
âSure you would,â Mayday rolls his eyes at the reluctant clone. âWhat do they teach you kids these days anyway?â
âHow to shoot someone's head off from two klicks away,â Crosshair answers flatly.
âOddly specificâŠâ Mayday whispers under his breath while finishing the last stitch. âThere, no more sock holes.â

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Letâs spread the self-love đ
Aw thank you :) I'm gonna do all non-TF stuff just for fun so strap in for small fandoms. I'm also v v self-conscious about self-reccing so i have attempted to let go of shame here and just pick some of the ones i've been rereading myself
A Harder Road - Johannes Cabal | gen | pg | 7.8k
A pastiche of Nikolai Gogol's Dead Souls which means that this fic has an audience of like. Three. You have to be in it for the silly narration, the idea of being able to buy souls through 19th CE Russian bureaucracy, and brotherly hate. But I'm really pleased with how this one turned out given the life circumstances I was in at the time, and it always makes me happy to look back on. If nothing else, highly recommend Dead Souls itself.
Just Like Ice on the Dune - Baseball RPF | gen | pg | 26.5k
Tim Lincecum and Hector Sanchez do magic together and win the world series. Baseball fandom (writing fic or watching games) is weird bc you get very into these players who then retire and disappear, but I've kept a soft spot for these two. This is another one from my grad school misery period - I think I'm prouder of these bc they were very hard won haha. This fic totally consumed my December and I almost missed the Yuletide deadline but I had tons of fun writing about Baseball superstitions.
Mirror - Tortall (Tamora Pierce) | Jonathan/Thom | adult | 1.7k
Very early Nev foray into genderfuckery and toxic relationships. Really I only recommend this if you a) remember Tortall fondly but b) wish it was even more explicitly messy.
Tudor Spies and Perfidy - The Ten Stupidest Things I've Heard Since Richard III's Remains Were Identified | gen | pg | 700 words
Because I used to write so much for Yuletide, I have a lot of fics for internet ephemera. I think this one is especially fun and also the blog post is worth remembering. Read it if you love nonsense time travel and shaggy dog stories! Also, in the same genre, honorable mention to this fic about Michael Buble being stalked by a velociraptor.
Hypocrisy Was Our Text - Skyfall (Bond Movie) | Bond/Silva | Teen | 11.5k
Once, long ago, I was going to write a novel about Shakespeare. Then I scrapped it and used all of the research to write a Elizabethan retelling of Skyfall. This is soooo fun to me and if I had the power to compell all of you to read one fic on this list it would be this one. But. I also get very weird about teeth in here. If you like historical AUs but not weird teeth stuff, allow me to rec this 17th century Dr Who epic instead haha.

I Wasn't Expecting Pillows
a random OM! comfort piece
pairing: platonic siblings Asmodeus & my MC (Xhura) [he/him]
word count: 975
rating: general
notes: this is just a general 'my fic is my comfort' little snippet. today's been rough and it would be nice to feel like asmo would always be there for me~
some general notes: this is platonic asmo & my mc xhura, xhura is an mc who became a demon, he is married to lucifer, & asmodeus is dating a handsome athlete named zelphrem (oc demon)
none of this is really necessary to know but i can't not over-complicate the explanations
hope the short-&-sweet sillies make you smile like they did for me đ
âI did a lot of crazy stuff back when I was human.â
âOh Petal, I know~ Youâve regaled me more than a few times with stories of your⊠less-than-savory adventures.â
Xhura chuckles, tucking his hands under the impossibly fluffy pillow. How in the world has Asmo managed to hide this thing from Belphie for this long? Surely at some point or another the former youngest of the Lords of Hell has managed to âGoldie Locksâ his way through every pillow in the House. Xhura knows at the very least heâs rifled through some of Luciferâs old throw pillows when his usual one is in the washer.
Hmm⊠Maybe itâs the perfume. Thatâs probably a decent Sloth-deterrent.
Or would it be a Cow-deterrent�
âPetal? Hell to Petal~ Can you read me Petal?â
Xhura blinks several times, only to see Asmodeus staring down at him from right above. Heâs smiling that usual âIâm here for you darlingâ smile, but thereâs a hint of something concerned behind his honeyed eyes. It doesnât go away even when Xhura offers up a smile of his own.
âSorry, spaced out there for a second.â
âUh-huhâŠâ Asmodeus doesnât sound all too convinced. And given Xhuraâs history with âspacing outâ being a whole lot more than just your everyday daydreaming, he has every right to feel even a smidgen of concern. âPromise thatâs all it was?â
Xhura nods and reaches down for his brotherâs hand, making a show of linking their pinky fingers together. âPinky promise.â Their eternal promise â their brotherly bond. Something so simple but maybe itâs the simplicity of it that makes it mean so much. Anyone can make a pinky promise. But itâs those who keep them that truly bring meaning to sentiment.
Asmo huffs and falls back down on Xhuraâs left side. He knows heâs basically lost all ability to voice his worries now. But he also knows Xhura wouldnât swear on a pinky promise if he wasnât absolutely certain.
âThen what were you thinking about?â
Xhura chuckles. âBelphie stealing your pillows.â
âPetal! Now why would you put such a horrible thing out into the universe like that?â Asmo reaches and grabs the first thing he touches; another throw pillow, albeit smaller, in the shape of a heart. Xhura vaguely remembers Asmo gushing about how Zelphrem won it for him at Devilâs Coast or something like that.
And⊠THWACK!
Xhura gets a carnival keepsake pillow to the face.
âYouâre just asking for bad juju now!â
âHey!â protests Xhura with a laugh, trying in vain to cover his face but when Asmo canât hit him there he just goes for all the other soft squishy bits. âYou canât get mad at me! You asked!â
âWell I wouldnât have if Iâd known you were trying to turn me into an unknowing victim of Belphieâs sticky pillow-grubbing fingers!â
âHow does that make any sense?!â
It doesnât, and thatâs why theyâre both laughing so hard that breathing becomes more of a wheezing exercise. Not like either of them are out of shape â not by a long shot. They both get plenty of strenuous physical exercise thank you very much. But maybe because itâs been so long since theyâve laughed like this. Without a care in the world, all the things normally hanging over them and the family like a grey storm cloud abandoned for one moment of pure mirth and joy.
Thankfully for Xhura his brother stops before the pillowâwhich is a sentimental gift, as opposed to a gift of real qualityâfalls to clumps of stuffing and scraps of fabric under the slightest duress. Even if Asmodeus would have no one to blame but himself for it. Xhura would of course feel responsible for being the tangential reason a gift from Zel ended up needing replaced.
The pillow falls on the other side of the bed without a sound. For several long moments the only noise in Asmodeusâ bedroom is the combined effort of their labored breathing.
Xhura and Asmo wordlessly lace their fingers together in the scant space between them.
Itâs not really a shocker that Asmo is the one to break their breathy concert. What is a shocker is what he decides to say to do it.
âI wasnât expecting pillows. Since you started talking about your crazy wild human years⊠I wondered if maybe you were remembering something you wished you hadnât.â
Slightly out of sync Xhura and Asmodeus turn to face each other with their elbows bent and their heads propped on their free palms. The perfect position for a deep and emotional staring contest. Asmodeus casually fiddles with Xhuraâs wedding ring. Xhura taps his nail against Asmoâs new acrylic set.
Finally, Xhura sighs and looks down. The first to break eye contact. No doubt that worries Asmo more⊠Xhura loves winning staring contests.
âIf thatâs what youâre worried about, you donât need to be,â says the youngest Lord of Hell quietly â so quiet even Asmodeusâ demonic ears require a little focus to catch it all. âIâm okay.â
âIâm sure you are, Petal,â because the fifth brother is all-too-familiar with recognizing his baby brotherâs tells these days; like where âIâm okayâ doesnât actually pertain to anything specific nor does it have to be about the topic heâs trying to bring up; âbut you seemed like you came in here and wanted to talk about⊠something. So even if youâre okay, I need you to know Iâm here for you however you need me to be.â
The barest hint of a smile quirks up at the corner of Xhuraâs mouth. A good sign.
âLike you always are.â
âExactly, like I always am~â Asmodeus grins, unlacing their fingers only as long as it takes to BOOP the tip of Xhuraâs nose. Then itâs right back to platonic comfort-touch hand-holding.
