i don't want to wish anyone badly on-track, but listen.... if anything happens to P2 and P3 tomorrow - anything at all - then we have a piarles podium 👀👀👀

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. Let's spread the self-love 💞

phoebe!! this is such a brilliant and thoughtful ask game - thank you SO much for thinking to pass it on to me ❤️ also, i am SO sorry that it's taken me a week to actually reply to this 🙈 i saw this, LOVED this, but then had to go to work so didn't have time to answer it properly... and then of course had forgotten completely about it by the time i got back from work. i am literally THE WORST when it comes to answering my asks, istg 🥲

but here we are now! it's monday, and i feel like we could ALL use a bit of self-love on mondays, so i'll be passing this on ASAP once i'm done here. thank you again for thinking of me ❤️❤️and let's do this!!

my top 5 fics that i have written (for my current fandom), in no particular order:

love's a game, wanna play - AKA my fake dating AU, the one that really started it all, the one that's probably still the most self-indulgent thing i've ever written. this is probably the fic i have most enjoyed writing, out of everything i've written - it never fails to make me smile. ❤️ fake dating is just one of my favourite tropes ever, and they're my favourite boys, and.... yeah. MASSIVE soft spot for this one, always. (and yes: i am going to update this one day. i really am. but it might not be soon, because like i said, this fic is one which i genuinely enjoy writing. but currently, my writing is coming more in fits and starts/intermittent writer's block, unfortunately. i feel like i can't truly write a chapter of fake dating until i'm truly ENJOYING writing again. but whenever that is? you can bet there will be a chapter 7, because yeah, i fucking love this fic. it is my BABY. my beloved <333)

you are perfection, my only direction (it's fire on fire) - my dragon riders au, and the one that's my pride and joy for its worldbuilding and just the high fantasy/soulmatism theme of it all. worldbuilding and fantasy and soulmate themes are (you guessed it) some of my favourite tropes to read about, and i am really proud of the way i turned that into writing here 💙

it's you and me, that's my whole world - my prince!charles and his oblivious pining really-dumb-for-an-engineering-student idiot of a best friend pierre. this one just makes me feel so soft and fond whenever i go back and reread it - i just, i love them, your honour. (and charles IS the prince of monaco. the end.) 💜

long live the walls we crashed through - AKA my emotional reaction to the seb retirement announcement (i processed it by making him give relationship advice to half the grid (because why wouldn't i?) and then taking his OWN advice and finally going to talk to lewis.) it's soft and meaningful, and it's sewis, and it's a healthy dose of seb & the grid feels, and it just means a lot to me. a lot. 💚

so i guess all the rumours are true (you know i love a rouen boy) - ahhhhhhh, so, choosing the last one was SO hard for me, but in the end it just had to be this one: my monaco vlog au (AKA the one where i watched charles' monaco vlog in 2022, then rewatched it way too many times until the only thought left in my brain was "oh my god, i have to make this about piarles somehow.) and i did. and i am still very proud and very fond of this one 💛

HONOURABLE MENTIONS (because i can't NOT, and also because choosing was SO HARD for me) to your lips, my lips (apocalypse) and Game For Two and (you are the best thing that's ever been) mine. these three fics are all very special to me, in their own ways, and more than deserve their mentions on my honourable-mentions podium <333 ❣️

thank you again for this amazing ask (and for giving me the chance to go through my own fic archives!) this was an amazing way to make me smile again on a monday evening, and i hope that this answer might make some of you reading it smile too <333 ily all!!

Girlllll I’m sooo jealous of you right now🥲 you get all THIS piarles content for your bdayyy!! And all i got for my bday was extra hours at work😭 (I’m kidding, I’m really happy for you and for all of us.. we got to witness this!)

Piarles video, dinner date, drivers parade, pierre podium AND the “Mr. Gasly”😭 (I’m still freaking out about this) and all in the span of 3-4 days!!! We’ve fed well😌 my personal life n work life is shambles but who cares?!! Right?👀 pierre n charles being sickeningly in love in front of the whole world is enough to keep me sane for a few days(actually I lost my sanity after i saw the Mr. Gasly💀)..I was actually waiting for charles to comment on pierre’s post congratulating him… i never expected him to do a whole post starting with that! But yeah no one’s complaining 😌 and that podiumm!!!! Cunt was served!!! He looked FUCKINGG AMAAZINGGG(the hair esp)

Last but not least… that squeezie video😍 i watched it after a horrible day at work… i was soo close to having an emotional breakdown that day, and God I laughed so much watching it.. made my day! I was so so happy by the end I didn’t even realise it was almost 50 minutes!! After the horrendous week I had all this piarles content felt like a reward.. the piarlies keep on winning unlike [redacted]👀 haters will keep on hating😏

(I wanted to unload this somewhere, but yeah can’t do that irl😬)

I hope you are having a great week unlike me!

PS: Hapoy bdayyy 🤗

T❣️

AWWWW HELLO DARLING!! 🥰🥰❤️ this made me laugh so much right before i had to go back to work, ahahahaha, oh my goodness - ilysm 🤣🤣🤭 it's true, i really did have the best lot of piarles birthday presents... #blessed indeed!! ❤️💙 though if it makes you feel any better... my actual BIRTHDAY today was spent almost entirely in the lab, so we're in the same boat with having to work on the bday, at least 🙈 but yeah!! I AM ALSO STILL SO FUCKING INSANE ABOUT THE MR GASLY 😘 don't think i'll ever be over that tbh!!! pretty sure i'm going to need to write a fic about it!!! and same goes for that squeezie video... just wow. WOW. they really said "happy fucking BIRTHDAY miss katie singsweetmelodies" 🤭😌🎉
