Current writer problems: my need to procrastinate is too strong and I am oh so sleepy 😴

[exhaslo]

HOLY MURKROW YOU ANSWERED MY ASK!!! SQUEEE!!!! Ahhh, that's so awesome! College is keeping me busy, so I haven't been able to talk much.

But, I had another idea, and since you write for Miguel and did so AWESOME 👍 with the last ask I rambled with.....

😅👉👈 I had an idea! (Hope you don't mind me rambling!)

So.... I had an idea about a witchy spider-person. Like, A spider-person who can use magic! It'd be so cool!

And since I'm addicted to making this big Tarantula man sleep, (because we know he doesn't sleep, don't deny it you know it's true) Miguel or Lyla, in a moment of weakness or (in Lyla's case, out of concern for Miguel) calls the magic spider-person into Miguel's office and while Miguel and our Spell-slinger (Such a cool name) banter and talk, eventually, one of them asks Spell-slinger to cast some sort of spell on Miguel to help him sleep.....

Man, he's out like a light. Super fluffy, super cute. That's all!

Thanks so much! Have a wonderful day! (Also, sorry if your requests aren't open, I didn't see anything about whether they were open or not. Take your time on this one if you want to write it, it'll be great, but don't push yourself friend!)

Aweeee this is a super cute idea!!! Thank you for reading and enjoying my previous stories!!! And thank you for your patience!!!

Warning: None, just Fluff

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"A bark of sandal wood!"

Poof

"A sprinkle of Kiwi seeds~"

Whoosh

"A dash of Jasmine petals!"

Foosh

"And a touch of hoping this works magic!"

Kaboom

"AND WE HAVE IT! Feast your eyes folks, for I, Spell-Slinger, New Myth-York's one and only Spider Witch, has created a new and powerful potion!"

You let out a roar of laughter as you spoke to yourself in your one bedroom apartment. Clearing your throat, you gave a small pout towards your pot since no one was there to witness your wonderful creation.

"Oh, what am I to expect? Tis a city out there of many witches and fiends, yet I be it the only Spider-Witch. How doust thou expect to find such moments amusing?"

"You're being dramatic again, (Y/N)" Lyla spoke as she appeared from your watch. You gave the AI a small pout as you approached your large cauldron,

"Oh, but I must. For you have given me such a....challenging task! Far more than the night of Hollow's Eve when my Goblin tried to ruin the yearly rituals for the Werewolves."

"Another reason why Miguel doesn't like sending people to your world for missions. Your mythical creatures and culture might spark the wrong kind of interest in others." Lyla explained before appearing before the bubbling pot, "Is it ready?"

"Yes. I must say, a sleeping potion is quite rare for us Witches to do anymore. Not with modern technology that is."

"Yes, but Miguel won't take over counter medicine. We needed something stronger."

"And me busting out the hundred year old spell book had to be it?"

Let's back track a little. You lived on Earth-54987. A Earth where everyone was a mythical creature or being of some sort. You were born as an average witch, with no outstanding abilities to separate you and your fellow kin.

That was until you were bit by a radioactive Spider that the Sphinx's were experimenting on. In your world, the Sphinx's the smartest of all races...and now because of their experiment...You were a hybrid like no other.

Your witch casting abilities had intensified and you also gained the abilities of a Spider. It was unique and nothing that anyone had seen before. You could either swing across the city or fly on your broom that you customized yourself.

You hadn't thought about being a Super Hero since it was difficult in your world, but things changed when the Black Market started to steal people's abilities and forms away.

You became the hero known as Spell-Slinger. Fighting villains whom wanted to cause havoc and chaos in your mythical world.

"Can you bottle this up into some sort of drink?" Lyla questioned. You smiled,

"I can do you one better."

Fixing your dress, you approached your cauldron and inhaled deeply.

"Summon thee, oh summon thou, of which minor contraption that can hold. Summon thee, oh summon thou, a tool of how to spray on one wist challenge thy be!"

As you chanted, the liquid in the pot had started to spin and float. Above the smoke an item started to form of its essence. A spray bottle was created from the smoke and the potion made its way inside the bottle with ease.

"Bravo." Lyla chirped. You held the spray bottle in your hand,

"This will be easier. Shall we go?"

---------

Miguel grunted lowly as he sat in his dark, gloomy office, working on some paperwork. It had been a while since he last caught some shut eye, but who could sleep when the fate of the Multiverse laid on his shoulders?

"Not to mention Alchemax is getting on my last nerves," Miguel grumbled out as he pinched the bridge of his nose.

Miguel had a bad habit of staying up for days on end. His motto was that the only way work will get done is if he did it. There weren't many people he trusted. Not many people could do the work he could anyway.

"Miguel, you need to rest. Your body is going to crash again at this rate." Lyla warned.

"I'm fine."

"No. You're not, but it's fine. I've enlisted help."

"Help-Lyla!"

Miguel hissed as he watched his AI disappear. Sometimes, he truly regretted allowing his AI to become self aware. Groaning at the thought of what Lyla was planning now, Miguel paused all of his work.

This wasn't the first time Lyla had 'enlisted help'. Honestly, at this rate everyone in the Spider Society knew about Miguel's horrible sleeping habits. They probably thought it was a game to see who could make him fall asleep first.

"Hm?"

Miguel's lazily stare focused on you as you came flying in on your Spider-like broom.

"I don't think your hocus pocus will help." Miguel spat. You gasped softly,

"That is actually an insult to me."

"Ah, my apologies then." Miguel muttered. You huffed in response, glancing towards your handsome boss,

"Lyla says you haven't been sleeping much. Need some help?"

"Thank you, but no thank you. I'm fine." Miguel muttered, glancing at your broom and costume, "Are you fitting in well here?" He asked out of concern. You smiled softly towards his concern,

"Aside from. 'Is the witch of the west your aunt?' kind of questions, I'm doing fine. Thanks for asking."

Miguel grunted in response as he observed you a bit longer. You were a special Spider that he found interesting. He liked how unique and quirky you were, but still stuck to your ideals.

"You can forget about Lyla's task. Sorry to have taken time out of your day."

"It's fine, but could you do me a little favor?"

"Hm?"

"Start pre-dreaming! It will help you sleep better." You cooed, getting close to his face. Miguel furrowed his brows,

"Pre-Dreaming?"

"Mhm, start thinking about what you want to dream about. Gets you looking forward to that sweet rest."

"Fine," Miguel smiled towards you, a rare gem one might say.

"May thy succumb to sweet dreams and blissful rest, oh tense one."

Miguel flinched as he felt his face engulf with a strange mist. Wanting to complain, his body slump as his eye lids dropped.

----------

Spraying your potion against Miguel's face, you hummed happily as Miguel instantly fell asleep. Yes, there was a little bit of guilt since Miguel rewarded you with a smile, but he needed to rest.

"Hehe, it worked~"

Catching the tall man with your broom, you carefully brought him to the softest spot you could find in his office. You casted a blanket and pillow out of air and smiled as Miguel snored. He looked so peaceful,

"Hm, I wonder what he is dreaming out?" You whispered. Lyla appeared and cheered you on,

"You should hide that potion somewhere in this office. That way I can get anyone to use it when he is tired."

"Ah, that would be too dangerous. Best this stays with me. Just summon me whenever Miguel needs to sleep."

"Fair enough."

As you flew off on your broom, you stopped in front of Miguel's door and webbed a sign up.

'Sleeping, Do not Disturb. Curtesy of (Y/N)'

Oh, you knew Miguel was going to chew you out later for it. But it brought a smile to your face. That, and you won the bet between everyone else who was trying to get Miguel to sleep.

This was a good day indeed!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope you enjoyed despite it being short! I liked getting creative with the Witch Spider, haha!

Hi! 🩷 For the writing ask game... Could I have 👀, ✏️, 🏅, 🌝, and 🤔, please?

You sure can!! ❤️❤️ Thank you so much for all of the asks!! 🫶

The list

👀 Any WIPS I would never let see the light of day? If yes, what about?

Well for me, any WIPS that I don't share or post I save exclusively for bedtime daydreams! Thinking about random scenes from ideas I might not ever write helps me fall asleep, and if I don't have anything to think about I have a very hard time falling asleep lol! 😅 Sometimes though the nighttime daydreams can transfer over to an eventual WIP, but that's more rare 😆

✏️ Do you write every day?

Actually I have been attempting to! I've been plotting a massive semi-canon AU for Promare and I've managed to write down my plot points in my document almost every night! There's been a few nights where I haven't, but usually because I need a break or I need to sit on something I planned and mull over it, make sure it fits or not 😊

🥇What is something you've recently felt proud of in regards to your writing?

The above actually! The fact that I've been plotting for one idea almost every night is incredible! 💯 I've got 15 chapters entirely plotted now, and the plot points alone are sitting at about 15k words! Imagine how long and awesome it'll be when I actually translate it to a writing document with more details?? 🤩

🌝 Who is one character you haven't written for that you'd like to?

I'd really like to try my hand at writing Keith from Tiger & Bunny someday, an oblivious airhead that is so kind and genuine. Fingers crossed 🤞

🤔 What is the hardest part of writing fic?

Staying motivated, no contest!! The longer the fic the more likely I am to lose steam and stop for an indeterminate amount of time, especially if I've been writing at the seat of my pants, or if the Fandom it's tied to is not at the front and center of my brain! (sorry to all my ffvii fic fans still waiting on my dragon and pirate au, I promise I haven't forgotten them!! 😅)

Thank you again for the asks isle!! 🫶💚😊

[blehblarghblah]

Update:

I am proud to announce that "Loyalty & Light" now has a date of return! Yeaaaah! That's right, we're back in business... soon. heh. Hopefully, now having a date will tide you all over.

Meanwhile, “The Most Undoing Thing” is well on its way and will follow a more sporadic update format. Meaning, it probably won’t be as frequent as y’all would like. If you still haven’t heard, TMUT is going to 20 chapters so we’ve got three left! Wooo!

But now, it's time to promote what else I got in the works:

Arcane/Legends of Runeterra, Mama Jinx future AU, multi-chapter story (Title: “The Most Undoing Thing”). Returns August 9th, uploads (somewhat) monthly basis.

The Owl House, Lealtad Noceda big sister/beta sister AU, multi-chapter story (Title: “Loyalty & Light”). Returns August 2nd, uploads biweekly basis.

The Owl House & The Ghost and Molly McGee crossover, crossover AU, multi-chapter story (Title: “The Light and Molly McGee”). Work in Progress. (not coming anytime soon).

The Walking Dead (TV series) & Telltale's The Walking Dead (game) crossover, crossover AU, Violetine, Rick meets Clem, multi-chapter story (Title: "The After"). Work in Progress (not coming anytime soon).

The Dragon Prince, Rayllum oneshot collection, multi-AU & canon compliant stories (Title: “Magic Between the Moon & Sky”). Still on hiatus! I've yet to actually even watch season 4! But it'll be back eventually!

Halloween Fics! It's early to promote now, but by October I have three oneshots of three different fandoms planned! All Halloween themed and with ships!

So yeah, we getting busy folks! I would like to lead with that though there are schedules in place, these are subject to change in events of burnout, personal matters, or just inconveniences like tech issues. Or there may be random fics that pop up that weren't listed but I just made for the Hell of it. Keeping up with the fic tags---which is usually the fic name plus "update" at the end---is the best way to stay up to date on my fic series/multi-chapter stories.

I should state for the record, I will be returning to university this coming Fall and working part-time more. I'm going to be more busy of course, but I swear I’m doing my best to make sure I'm not overwhelmed! ᕦ( ò_ó)ᕤ

As always, if you're curious about these WIP fics I have in store, don't be afraid to ask about 'em! I'm always down to answer asks ( ^‿^).

Also, here is my ko-fi. I stated this before, but there is no pressure or need to donate (especially since I haven't been posting as much 😅). Fanfiction is a fun hobby and practice for me, but it's also out of my own free time and effort. So if you want to show your appreciation you can buy me a Coffee but the easy way would be sending me a comment on my stories or simply sharing my works. At the end of the day, I do this to spread my passion but also to entertain others.

(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

By the way, tags with “bleh update” keep track of all incoming fic posts! And check out my Fandom Masterlist to see what I'm into! Also Here’s all my Fanfics!

That's all for now. Stay safe and take care all!

Until next post,

- Bleh

*inhales deeply*

Woah, your art is so beautiful. How HOW!? I mean, practice of course 😂 blah it's so goodd!! Like the lighting! And the backgrounds! And the EVERYTHING!

*pokes fingers together*

So, do you have any tips or anything for aspiring artists?

BDLSSJKDODHDSKSS THANK YOU SO MUCH?!!?! oh goodness genuinely asks like these make me so happy because thank you for taking time out of your day to send this in?!?!? 😭😭💗💕💖💕💗💕

TIPS?!?! oh man im not gonna tell you to practice, practice, practice because its so basic and everyone always says that AHAHAH hmmmm....

I think what helped me a lot honestly was saving/bookmarking art that i like and think is pretty!! It inspired me a lot to draw more and try to get to their level 😂 also for more practical reasons!! You can look for one(1) thing to apply to your own art. Things like how they draw eyes, how they color skin, what kind of brushes they use!!! If you like it, you get used to it. If you don't, you try something else or tweak it until you do. Once you start mixing things in your routine and get used to it, it eventually becomes your own style!!

I also used to watch a lot speedpaintings to see what other artists processes were. So when i first started out i actually had much looser lineart and rendered a LOT. I dont do this anymore, i dont know what changed, but thats just what happens when you keep drawing!! Things change and thats okay!!!

Also genuinely, and i think this helped me the MOST, draw a character you're obsessed with and WANT to create for. Who cares if it gets repetitive!!! I drew yamaguchi so much i could draw him in my sleep 😅😅

ANOTHER IMPORTANT THING!! Whatever gets your creative juices flowing, just go for it. Dont be scared of messing up or not being good enough to make what you imagined!! It'll all build up and help you get better!!! Then one day, you could go back and redraw your old art and feel better about yourself 🤣🤣

[spicycreativity]

Heyyy so I loved how happy I am to see this house once more the dialogue was perfection and it felt so much like a Percy Jackson story I can’t get enough. So anyway I know it’s the day after but I want to know like is Virgil ok after royally fucking up his arm and side and then having Remus pull it? Is Remus good or are those claw marks gonna kill him? What are all of Roman’s powers and why does he have so many while Remus has none? Does Virgil have a crush on Logan? I want more of this series like so bad

Thank you so much!!! I have a little more planned, but not much but now I'm kind of inspired to continue hehe

Virgil & Remus' Injuries:

Ngl at first I was gonna use nectar & ambrosia's magical healing properties to handwave that all away, but I did kind of nerf them with the express purpose of making injuries feel more immediately threatening and dangerous... so it actually might be more interesting if their healing properties don't work very well on old injuries 🤔 I think, in the long term: yes, Virgil & Remus are gonna be okay! But they might have some issues/pain in the short term that could be fun to explore

Roman's powers/Remus' lack thereof:

You've stumbled upon a deleted scene! Well, does it count as a deleted scene if I never wrote it? 😅 Remus was actually supposed to discover some powers over the course of the journey but I couldn't find a good way to fit it into the fic. Since it was a gift, it was supposed to be Virgil-centric and I didn't want to deviate too much

Where they are right now: Roman can heal himself via singing (he hasn't learned about thee 'via singing' part yet and thinks it's random), but it wipes him out afterward. Remus can't fo anything

Where they're gonna end up (eventually): Roman will eventually learn to control his healing powers and use them on other people. I'm also trying with the idea of having him be able to emit a concentrated light that can sorta. vaporize enemies. And a few other things that I haven't really workshopped. Remus will come into his own and discover that he has, essentially, plague powers? The scurvy conversation was meant to be foreshadowing for that; he's basically gonna be able to give enemies scurvy and have their previous wounds kill them

As to why Roman is more outwardly powerful, better-looking, more charismatic, just bigger and stronger overall, I wanted to jump off of their canon appearances and behaviors and deepen them here using Apollo as a tool to do so. I'm not into Classics but I think Apollo is a great example of the unity of "Great" and "Terrible" so I wanted to split that up into Roman (Great; healing, sunlight, music) and Remus (Terrible; illness, tragedy, despair)

So, in short, Remus is a late bloomer to make Roman look greater by comparison. In-universe, I guess it's just one of those things that happens

Virgil and Logan:

Short answer: No (unless....?)

Long answer: The person I wrote How Happy I Am for is not super into romance, which is why there wasn't any in the fic. However, I LOVE fictional romance and I really REALLY love Analogical, so I feel like it probably kinda leaked in 🙈

It'll probably make a little more sense in the narrative when I get around to writing Virgil and Logan's "getting to camp" story, too: the short version is that Virgil and Logan shared a semi-traumatic experience together and Virgil was like "great, now I'll have a friend at camp" and when they got there, Logan immediately ghosted him. That's also why Virgil was so fixated on Janus at first, thinking they were kindred spirits and good be friends bc he really didn't relate to Patton very much and was mistrustful of his intentions. And why he was so mad when Janus turned out to be kind if an asshole (affectionate) 🤣

Thank you so much for dropping by my inbox! Seriously, it really means a lot to me and I'm so glad you like my fic 💜💜💜💜💜💜

[mammonprotectionsquad]

Today was pretty busy and I didn't get around to work on any requests, I'm sorry x__x

Instead I'd like to offer you a new Vandy/Talia oneshot that I finished two days ago. Even though I'm not aaaall too happy with the "action" parts, I still want to post it because I missed writing for the agency couple...

Also, this is kinda long 😅

Rescue mission

Vanderwood x Talia (agency oc)

Her hands tightened around the steering wheel as she was racing down the highway. Speed limits be damned... There were more important things to worry about. In this case; her boys.

"We need backup..."

Vanderwood's words echoed in her head over and over again. It was a sentence they all dreaded to ever hear from those dear to them. But it would be a cold day in hell if she'd ever not drop everything in order to help them. For years she'd had no one, so the thought alone of potentially losing her small found family was terrifying to no end.

Tires screeched as Talia took a sharp right turn, exiting the highway and driving towards the coordinates that she'd been sent. At the same time she pressed a finger against her earpiece.

"Vandy? You two hold on, okay? I'm nearly there now. Are you safe?"

"Momentarily. But kid's got it pretty bad. Lost quite some blood", he reported, the pained groan coming from Seven in the background sending another wave of worry over her.

"Keep him concious. I'll make sure to get you out of there."

It wasn't wishful thinking, she'd make sure of it. She'd get them out of there, alive, and bring them back home where they belonged.

She eventually parked the car at what looked like an abandoned industrie building, not wasting any time to gear up and stash as many throwing knives and even bullets and guns, which she despised to use, on her body as possible. This was more than a code red, so there was no time to go with preferences. She had to be on the safe side.

"Kali... Be careful", her boyfriend's voice reached her ear again. And the fact that even though he was the injured one and probably nearly carrying the hacker, but still worried about her made her heart skip a beat. Not to mention that it was always somewhat calming her nerves when he called her by her real name.

"Aren't I always?", she answered, voice a little softer as she put her hair up into a high ponytail in order to keep it out of her face.

"No."

"Wow, bold of you to say in your situation, Mr", she snorted, their little banter giving her at least a little sense of comfort. When he was able to still sass her, things probably weren't that bad  injury wise on his side. Nevertheless she didn't want to risk to waste too much time.

"Where are you gonna get in?"

"South entrance looks like it'll be the easiest to access", she murmured as she looked around. And as soon as she'd made it to said entrance, she was already pushing the door open with her arm, gun held firmly in her hands.

"We'll head your way. Stay alert. The place might look abandoned, but it's still crawling with security."

"Got it... See you in a bit~"

The dim lights were flickering in the long hallway and she took a moment to just listen. Heavy footsteps in the distance, but it was impossible to tell from how many people, because of the echo in the building.

The brunette moved as quietly and fast as possible, yet still calculating. The smallest mistake could've resulted in death. Which wasn't an option for her at all. Thanks to her fast reflexes, and the determination to get her boys out of there in one piece, lifeless bodies littered her path. The usual warmth in her blue eyes was completely gone at that point. She'd show no mercy to the people who dared to hurt those closest to her.

When she rounded another corner, gun still drawn, she suddenly looked down a barrel as well, though a mop of red hair in the background made her let out a relieved sigh and both guns got lowered at the same time.

She really wanted nothing more than wrap her arms around Vanderwood, pat him down to see how bad the situation was, because she just knew he'd downplay everything, if she asked him about it.

"The way I came from is cleared. You two go ahead, I've got your back", she instead settled on saying. There was still time for hugs when they've made it to safety.

Vanderwood's answer was only a nod as he adjusted his grip on Seven, who looked like he was trying desperately to hold on to conciousness. Making it more than obvious that they had to hurry.

For the most part, things went smoothly. The few poor fools that dared to try and attack them soon met their demise. Either with a bullet or getting pierced by knives.

Just when they were about to reach the exit, a guy jumped into their way seemingly out of nowhere. And though he held a knife, Talia didn't hesitate to step in front of Vanderwood and Seven, expertly disarming him, before she kicked his legs out from under him. Then she pinned him to the ground with a knee pushed to his chest, her own knife pressed to his neck. One wrong move from him and she would've easily drawn blood.

"What the hell was the plan here?", she nearly growled, feeling the guy swallow thickly with how the knife moved.

"B-boss said to kill one, let the other one go after messing him up. T-to send a-a message to the agency."

After just glowering at him for another moment, she got back on her feet, knife stashed into the holster on her thigh.

"Today's your lucky day. I'll let you go to tell your boss not to fuck with us again, if he wants to keep on breathing."

In the back, Vanderwood made a confused sound, clearly about to say something as they all watched the man get up and hurry down the hallway. Though before he had a chance to get too far away, she reloaded her gun.

"You know what? I've changed my mind." As soon as those words were out, she pulled the trigger, body falling to the ground with a dull thump. "No one lays their hands on my boys and gets away with it."

In fact, she'd already started to plan on how to get to the asshole that ordered the entire shitshow to happen. Eliminate everyone that was involved, make sure no one would come after them again.

"That was scary... But also kinda hot", the weak voice of the hacker carried over to her, making her focus her attention on him and with a couple long strides she was next to him, wrapping his free arm around her neck to help Vanderwood carry him to the car. "Mark me down as scared and horny", he then added with as much of a grin as he was capable to form.

"She's still my girlfriend, you little shit", Vanderwood huffed, obviously not pleased about the comment.

And despite everything, how worried she still was, it was impossible not to chuckle. They've just made it out of a situation where they could've died, yet here they still were. Arguing as if nothing had happened.

Once they managed to get Seven in the backseat, the older agent accompanying him to take care of the biggest wounds as good as possible with the first aid kit in the car, she let out a long sigh. Talia drove off quickly, still making sure not to go too fast in case they drove over bumps. Those were never pleasant when injured and she didn't want to be the cause of more pain.

"Wait... Did you say that our dear sweetheart Tali is your girlfriend?", Seven suddenly piped up again after a minute of silence. Appartently it had taken him a moment to let the former conversation sink in, probably because of a concussion.

"Tsk, I did not. You're hearing things", Vanderwood immediately answered out of reflex. After all they hadn't told the hacker that they were indeed dating.

"I am honestly surprised that you didn't notice it already. We weren't really as sly as we tried to be, when we were at the bunker", she chimed in.

When she caught her boyfriend's glare in the rear view mirror, she simply shot him back a bright smile, earning herself a fond roll of his eyes.

"What? He would've found out eventually anyway. Besides, there's a 50/50 chance that he actually won't remember this conversation with how messed up he looks."

Even if he did remember it, she knew he would never tell anyone about them. If there was anyone she trusted wholeheartedly, it were the two men in her car.

As soon as Seven was taken care of and fast asleep, Vanderwood made use of the first red light to slip into the passenger's seat. For a while they both kept quiet, fingers interlaced and just letting it sink in that they'd made it out. Everyone was alive and would be back to normal sooner or later. All it took was some rest to heal.

"Did anyone get to you?", his low voice eventually broke the comfortable silence.

"Not really, no. Most I'll have will be some bruises", she reassured with a smile, giving his hand a light squeeze. "But you will let me check on you and take care of all your injuries. This isn't up for discussion!"

"Jeez, so pushy...", he grumbled, though the amused glint in his eyes, along with the kiss he pressed to the back of her hand, let her know that he didn't mind it all too much.

"Careful. Or I might decide that it's best not to kiss until your split lip healed~"

"You wouldn't... I don't even think you would be able to hold out that long."

"Try me, babe", she snickered, even winking at him.

He was right, though. She probably wouldn't manage to pull through with her threat. After all, she'd gotten kind of addicted to his kisses.

When they had to stop at yet another red light, he suddenly grabbed her chin between thumb and index finger to turn her head towards him, already leaning in for a deep, nearly desperate kiss. One she immediately returned, the hand that wasn't in his moving up to cup his cheek.

"It's okay... We're okay", she whispered against his lips, still diving right in for another kiss.

"I know. I'm just relieved that nothing happened to you."

"Oh man...", a groan from the back made both of them part, if reluctantly, Talia focusing on the street again. "Can't you two get a room for that? Disgusting to see your parents kiss..."

"Just shut up and go back to sleep. And stop calling us your parents!"

All the woman could do was laugh about their banter once again. She loved both of them with her entire heart, in different ways, and it once again became painfully obvious that she'd do anything to ensure their safety. Always.

[glorious-blackout]

10, 32, 48 for the fic ask thing! 💗

Thank you! 💖

10. How do you decide what to write?

Back in the day (ie. when I was a teenager with free time) I would just write any old one-shot that came to mind regardless of quality, but now an idea really needs to sink its teeth into me in order for a fic to see the light of day.

Once I start obsessing over a fic idea to the point where I'm constantly thinking about it and putting together a writing playlist in my head, the likelihood that it'll eventually get written increases tenfold. Sadly this doesn't happen very often which is why my output has gotten a lot slower over the years 😅

32. What’s your ideal fic length to read?

Either a 1000-5000 word one-shot that I can easily read in my spare time or a 10-chapter fic that I can follow along as it gets updated. I can get a bit intimidated by fics with lots of chapters unless they're written by authors I already trust and love.

48. What’s the last fic you read? Do you recommend it?

The last two fics I read were by @yellowloid - 'Ain't You My Baby?' and 'No Rules in Breakable Heaven' respectively - and as with all of her works I can highly recommend both! She's an insanely talented writer and I always get excited whenever I see she's published a new work (especially the former as I'm a sucker for a good sickfic and hers is predictably excellent) 💖

[glorious-blackout]

i wish you would write a fic where there's unlimited amounts of whump and hurt/comfort because god. you're so fucking good at it

(bonus: i wish you would write a fic where there's smut because your writing style would fit and work so well with it and i just know it'd be absolutely exquisite) (but i totally understand it's not something everyone feels comfortable/wants to write. just saying i think you'd be a pro at writing it!) 🩷

Thank you! 🥺😭🥰

I have a vague idea that I've wanted to write for a while which would essentially be a major whump/hurt-comfort fest with a touch of magical realism and I'm hopeful it'll see the light of day eventually. I'm struggling to flesh out my ideas between work/writer's block/general life changes at the moment but the overall concept keeps rearing its head whenever I feel the urge to start writing again.

And I honestly don't know how I've resisted writing smut (beyond the occasional vague allusion to it) because I'm certainly not averse to reading it 😅
