Do I know what it means?

No.

Do I want to?

Not really.

Akria Toriyama’s writing style when it comes to the couples in DBZ

First seeing the couple: *shares a moment that has some romantic tension or out right flirting*

Next time we see the couple: *married with children*

In my heart this is how the finale ACTUALLY ended. In my heart…

Based on this specific panel from the comics:

[123puppy]

Ayyy what if Lucifer underestimates just how down bad he is when he gives himself deer biology like Al?

Yes I am the exact opposite of this ship, you know what to expect here > u >

Deer ears are not the only features Lucifer magic'd into existence, it's like all his senses have been cranked up to 100. Taste, smell, sight, it's all heightened to an unbearable level

But what's unbearable is this smell he can't stop taking in, it's everywhere, overpowering every other smell in the hotel, he's agitated, ears flat, antlers suddenly growing as his blood rise, searching for where that overwhelming scent is coming from-

He gets shoved by the butt of a microphone cane and sees a sharp toothed grin on Alastor's face, albeit a twitch in his eye, eyes narrowed as he states, "Its rude to smell a person within their personal space"

To which Lucifer snaps that he wasn't even near him but Al rebuttals saying that Luci was 'too out of it' to notice that he's buried his whole face into Alastor's lower back and it took a moment for Lucifer to register the sentence because he can't remember doing an embarrassing and absurd thing but hell never lets shit go because Husk and Angel are there, the three were sitting by the bar, and they saw the whole thing

Angel explains in lewd detail how Lucifer was 'feeling' Al up with his hands, how Al's face twisted in different expressions that made Husk turn around to hide the smirk on his face at his boss's flustered face

And Lucifer shrieks, more deer-like noises, and begs Angel to stop with the graphic explanation, as much as he wants to deny it the way Alastor looks at him with distaste and the slight disarray of his slightly open coat as he turns to button it up is evidence enough

Then Angel pipes up again, "Wait aren't'cha both bucks? Wouldn' da' mean you guys butt head 'er somethin'?"

And Alastor scoffs, his cane still keeping Lucifer at a distance as the fallen angel subconsciously tries to lean forward towards him, "I do not give into my 'primal instincts' so easily, my dear! Unlike Your Highness, my control is on a tight leash!" That's when the pressure at the end of his microphone disappears as Lucifer throws a disgruntled look at him.

"I have control, you tacky fucker!"

"Dat ain't what we saw, Big Daddy~" Angel laughs at the steam erupting from Lucifer's ears

"So you're playing 'Hard to Get'" Husk directs a quick glance towards his boss before dropping his gaze to the counter as he cleans a glass and ignores the glare Alastor throws at him.

"I am not"

"So Al is the Doe?" Angel coos.

"I believe I've overstayed my welcome," Stabbing the end of his cane into the floor, Alastor stands to his full height, eyes glowing and smile all teeth, "I must attend to my meeting," he chirps, playing a tune in the background as he clicks his hooves over towards the door. But stops, neck cracking as it turns and looks down with an angry twitch to his upturned lips, "Stop following me."

Lucifer blinks and sees just how close he is to Al and leaps back with a start

Al slams the door in his face and the room is silent

"Twenty dollas' he follows Al to his meetin'" Angel bets

"Forty, they'll have their asses back here in 10 minutes"

me: i hate cliches. theyre so predictable and overdone. i just want something new-

every fic ever: character A confidently/impulsively kisses character B who freezes under their touch causing character A to panic and begin to pull back just as character B remembers themself and kisses back with a passion

When your creativity runs out and you have to go to the garden and ask the trees for new ideas:

[thelyinggrapevine]

why is it so hard to write Reg and Sirius' past for my series wtf

I hate writer's block :)

(If anyone has any ideas for me, please give me some! (The fic is from Regulus' POV and the following books after their childhood will focus on Reg's years at Hogwarts))

[avelanlorelay]

please, some good soul help me: what do I do to get inspiration to continue my fics???? I think about Jurdan a lot, but I can't write anythiiiiing

[idkbishsss]

PSA:

If you don’t like smut fanfiction don’t read it! Writers don’t owe you anything and can write what they want. There’s also such things as tags and trigger warning. They are there for a reason, read them!

If you really want fluff or non-smut request it from people who take requests, or write it yourself.

COMING FROM A WRITER!!

\\jjk 260 spoilers what the actual FUKC was the point of todo climactically sacrificing his arm against mahito if he can just strap a weird slapping contraption on it that does literally his ct but like infinitely better

[continuous-spec]

This morning, I woke up thinking about a fanfic I read probably a decade ago. Throughout the years, I thought back to it here and there. It was a soul-crushing, beautiful short story. And it's stayed with me, obviously. I never commented or left a kudo. Unfortunately, I can not find it for the life of me to leave a comment now.

My point is that even if your fiction, story, or creative endeavor isn't getting attention, that does not mean it's not worth telling or sharing. Someone is reading and absolutely loving it. I promise.

[yolowritter]

My return to ACOLL posting!

Hello there everyone, and welcome back to...well, it says so on the tin! For those unaware, I've been off Tumblr for a little while now, mostly to focus on writing and updating my biggest Miraculous fic to date! A Case of Ladybug Luck! Now, now, I know what you're gonna say. "I have no idea what you're talking about", so allow me to enlighten you! Have you ever wanted a fake death AU inspired by Nine Lives and Cut My Life to Pieces? Welp you've got it here! And yes I am shamelessly self-promoting instead of ranting, but I genuinely love how this AU is turning out and want to share with everybody! So...do you guys like angst? Becuse I do! And I like character drama too! So please, follow me to the fic where Marinette f*cking dies (allegedly), Adrien is a bigger furry than half of canon, Chloe gets a more realistic character arc, Lila is a psychopath, and everybody needs a therapist!

It is...uh, worth mentioning that this AU is...over 283,000 words long and...we're only half done. And yes, the reason I'm posting is because I want to rant about it! Expect snippets, discussions (anon asks are open btw) and also ranting about characters! Seriously the amount of psychoanalisis Gabriel has been through in this fic is downright criminal. For me. Because I have research to do! Listen the point is that I have twenty seven pages of character analysis notes in my drafts and those have to go *somewhere!*

In conclusion, I plan to rant about this AU. A lot. So if you could do me a favor and check it out at least to see if it's your cup of tea, I'd be really happy! Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go and frantically look for my most recent notes on Eminath! For- unrelated reasons! I'll see you all soon, but until then, Stay Miraculous!

DO NOT POST MY WORK TO GOODREADS OR ANYWHERE ELSE

I’m fuming. I do not care how much anyone likes my work and I cannot believe I have to say this: DO NOT STEAL MY WORK AND POST IT ELSEWHERE! Luckily, Goodreads took my stories down after I proved they were mine, but only three of the works! The fourth they put as “invalid” and I’ll post the response I got:

“Thanks for your email. Unfortunately, we have a strict policy against deleting books from the database. Goodreads is striving to be a complete database of all published works, including works that are out-of-print. We like our members to be able to add the exact edition of their books to their virtual shelves. However, a one time exception was granted and your three books were set as deleted and one as invalid (the system did not allow me the record, because it was the last in the catalogue).” Under the ‘invalid’ link, they state that they DO list long, finished fanfiction as books. However, this should be only when you are the actual author. I do NOT post my work anywhere but here, ao3, and there are some remnants on deviantart. I certainly have never posted it to goodreads.

If you see my work elsewhere, please contact me so I can report it. (And maybe you could report it too, after you’ve notified me, if you feel so inclined.) Ultimately, I find it distasteful to even refer to fanfiction, especially my own, as books. I said as much in my response:

My response: “Thanks for the deletion but I have a problem with your phrasing. These pieces are not *books*, they're fanfiction. They were not published, they were *posted* to a free website for fanfic writers. Books are created primarily for profit and with original characters. You cannot write a book about someone else's characters, that is plagiarism. Saying that fanfiction is a book or even implying that there was any sort of monetary gain around it could result in legal trouble for me (and I would assume for you). I suggest you take that under advisement because if I see my work there again I will continue messaging you until it is all removed. That's my work, I decide where it goes, not you and not random people on the internet stealing it to post to your site.” I’m livid, and I know a lot of people are. Between this, AI being allowed to write stories for people to be posted on ao3, allowing AI to trawl our work, and the overall lack of engagement in fan spaces, I’m inching closer and closer to deleting everything I ever posted.

[tenderlady]

actually dying to know more about maniacs!!!!! can you say anything about the plot ❤️ I know elevator pitching original stuff is torturous but give it to us anyway >:)

Ahhhh, maniacs, my most precious child <3 offering her out into the world is terrifying, but since the people demand it.... (Jkjk)

The long and short of it is that it's about two teenage girls who meet during the height of Beatlemania in the American South, who are dramatically riven apart by the Bigger Than Jesus controversy. Their (toxic, codependent, homoerotic, standard teenage girlbestfriend stuff) relationship flares out dramatically after the Cincinnati '66 concert and they don't see each other again until serendipitously crossing paths in New York on the night of John Lennon's murder.

Like I said in the tag meme, the Beatles aren't actually ~in it~ per se, but their narrative structures and mirrors the narrative of the two main characters. I do maintain that mclennon were basically teenage girlbestfriends, so I decided to follow that to its logical conclusion.

The first draft is done, so I'm just waiting until the new year to start typing it up and can trust myself to approach it with some objectivity and not, like, throw it into the fire in a panic.

Thank you for asking <3
