Fanfiction dot net link for Chapter 10!
In this chapter, we have: lots of fluffy-ish caretaking, Rick being a pain in the ass (please note that he's my favorite & I mean that affectionately, but it's still true 😅), and what I feel is the funniest line I've ever written.

Hey, does anyone know if there’s a way to check the updates someone has made to a story on ff.net? I know you can see when it was first published and when it was last updated, but I’m curious about the updates in-between. There’s a fic from the old days that isn’t done yet and I’d love to see the update history.

Do you have any ither zukka fic recs? I’ve been trying to discover some new good ones:)
Yess I love giving recs! A little warning tho, all the fics Im gonna mention are more than 5k+ words long cause I don't like short one-shots and a lot of them are multi-chaptered with over 40k+ words. Also I'll update this as I read and discover more faves!
Expand to see the list cause its long....
Lighthouse Beam: Sokka’s breathtakingly beautiful and he’s smart and makes other people laugh. Zuko has a half-burnt face and a deaf ear. It’s not rocket science. Or, Zuko falls in love with the boy in his Philosophy class.
🍑: I really like college/highschool AUs and even more zukka fics where Sokka is actually described to be smart. Sokka is one of the smartest characters in the whole show Idk why he's been branded as a dumb, dense character by the fandom. Anyways, loved that this fic had Zuko being the one to fall first as-well.
In the Soft Light: As the newly appointed cultural liaison to Northern Water Tribe, Zuko is the first Fire Nation Citizen to step foot inside the city's walls in nearly a century. He's determined to prove himself—to the Fire Lord and to his father—even if the Water Tribe's spirit-touched prince seems to want nothing to do with him. Or Moon Spirit Sokka AU.
🍑: Enjoy this authors' writing style, really engages me in the story. Also ahhhh fanfic based on my moon spirit Sokka... im very grateful 😭. I didn't include this one in an ask about moon spirit sokka au cause I hadnt known about it at the time but now I reread it whenever I can.
7 Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have): How Zuko and Sokka collided through ill advised means—or approximately seven (7) acts—is beyond them. In just a year, they will trudge through the unorthodox conquests of youth (see #2: The Late Acquisition of 2 gallons of Arizona Peach Iced Tea) or capitalist schemes (#5: Bought A $4,550 Jacuzzi). But how they manage to Allow Aang to Become Vegan (#1), Host The Mr. Teen Universe Contest (#7) and, um, Set The Classroom on Fire—Again (#6) to eventually fall for each other, is still a mystery to them.
🍑: Although this one hasn't been updated in almost a year, the 2 chapters that are posted is some of the most fun I've had reading a fanfic! I admire the coding put into it so that it has a creative, unique structured. Also cute little things like the scrap paper or the scrollable email box (which blew my mind when I first saw it, I didn't even know it was possible to code something like that) just engaged me more in the writing.
Kiss Me To Just Shut Me Up: Zuko proffers the card, and Sokka takes it, their fingers brushing. Sokka tries to cover up the way he shivers at the contact by turning the card over and squinting at the text written on the front. Zuko Sozin. Tattoo Artist. The Jasmine Dragon. A single dragon curls around the characters in red ink. — There's a new tattoo and piercing shop on Ember Island Beach.
🍑: Oh beau... you're so multitalented. This was the fanfic I was recommending to everyone that bought a zukka print from me at cons like I had no shame I just wanted everyone to read Beau's amazing work. And you all should read it if you havent yet.
Five Times Zuko Wanted to Die (and One Time He Didn't): “Sorry about that,” the voice says, and suddenly the curtain has been pushed aside, and Zuko is speechless. “What can I help you with?”
He stares. “Um— ”
The boy has to be around his age, he’s sure of it. He’s got the most perfect tan face Zuko has ever seen, with blue eyes so brilliant it’s hard to form words. Or the college-age AU in which Sokka fixes watches, Zuko struggles through engineering, and everyone's nervous about the cute boy from the jewelry shop.
🍑: Modern settings fics that aren't like cafe/barista AUs are kind of hard to find (or at least ones that I like cause im picky) so I was surprised to see this one! Again it's an enjoyable fic where Zuko is smitten first and Sokka is not written as dumb. I also remember wanting to draw fan art (one of the scenes) so maybe I'll go dig that sketch up and finish it.
At the Top of the World: Zuko is sent in disgrace to Alaska's Northern coast to ensure nothing stands in the way of Sozin Oil Company’s new offshore drilling project. He is willing to do whatever it takes to make his father see he’s worthy, even if it means fighting against the one person he's met who actually seems to give a damn about him.
🍑: I'll never shut up about this fic, its beautifully written, well paced and realistic characterizations. As an Indigenous person this fanfic tackled Indigenous struggles better than any other fanfics I've read so far and it shows the author did their research. ATLA fandom tends to sweep aside Katara and Sokka's indigenous identity a lot. It's even more frustrating when most fics acknowledge colonialism and racism and yet brush aside Indigenous discussions or theory because they're either scared of touching the topic or don't care. Even fics that do mention their Indigenity is brushed aside with surface level discussions you can tell the author is just parroting from whatever twitter thread they skimmed. Im definitely not saying that fanfic should be an educator for social political issues or that it should be written in a way that it could replace theory for whoever stumbles upon it. Im just baffled that so many authors will mention colonialism only to explore it's effects on Zuko and not the actual Indigenous characters.......... that's all.

OKAY ffnet seems to be at least temporarily up so i'm downloading as many of my old bookmarks/favorites/influences as i can get my hands on. the PROBLEM is that most of my ffnet bookmarks live in the browser on my ANCIENT ipod touch which no longer boots and if i have Any backup, Anywhere, it's probably on a macbook which is itself ancient and creaky, and i don't know how to extract bookmarks data from that. so i'm mostly going from memory here, which (because i have adhd) is VERY fallible.
and i know this is a long shot, but... does anyone remember an ffnet author who wrote a lot of itachi/shisui, and in particular wrote an incredibly fucked-up itachi/shisui oneshot sometime prior to maybe 2015 with an ambiguous ending where it's hinted that shisui used kotoamatsukami to brainwash itachi into compliance? i think the author had one of those all-lowercase names, one word, three or four syllables, starting with a C or possibly an S. (i wish anything i remembered about this fic was googleable.) i think they took all their fic off ffnet a while back; at any rate it's not showing up when i filter for itachi/shisui but i have to confess i've completely forgotten how to use ffnet filters so i might be fucking it up.

Phantasmagoria
So over the past few months I've been writing an odd crossover story between Diabolik Lovers and Monster High called Phantasmagoria, featuring the pairing Laito Sakamaki (from DL) and Twyla Boogeyman (from MH), which are my favorite characters from their respective series. At first I wasn't sure if anyone would like this, but the reception to both the story and the pairing so far has been positive, so it makes me really happy that people do. In terms of the picrew, the details aren't exact, but I'm really happy with how it turned out. I'll provide links to the story and couple image maker I used for the cover below.
Laito Sakamaki and Diabolik Lovers is owned by Rejet/Idea Factory, Twyla Boogeyman and Monster High is owned by Mattel. Phantasmagoria is written by me.
Story: Phantasmagoria
Fandom: Diabolik Lovers and Monster High
Pairing: Laito Sakamaki x Twyla Boogeyman
Rating: M for later chapters considering the controversial and mature themes DL has, plus Laito being Laito. Warnings will be in the author's note.
Genre: Romance, Drama, Angst, Hurt/Comfort
Summary: For whatever reason, we often put up a façade in front of the world, forgetting how to live sincerely. When your sense of self is lost, everything becomes distorted. Two souls, polar opposites at first glance, become entangled in ways they never thought possible, the lines between illusion and reality become blurred. Seeking love and understanding, are they so different?

PS: In the future, I might also post my stories on both Tumblr and dA. Hope you like it!

There is exactly ONE thing I will give FanFiction.net props over verses AO3 and that's how they let you manage your fic subscriptions (or 'alerts' as they're called on FF.net).
Like, look at this! This is absolutely perfect! You can easily sort by date the fic was last updated (this is my favorite one because it makes it so easy to find abandoned fics & clear them out!), the fandom, or author name. Plus they show you the date you added the alert. And you can also mass delete alerts!
It's a thing of beauty!
Now, look at what AO3 gives us. Basically nothing.
You can't even tell what fandom, let alone what ship, a fic is for unless you click through to it. You can't sort it at all! Plus it's not even set up to have the most recent subscription showing first! It stupidly lists everything alphabetically.
It's the absolute worst.
