Swords pining for each other's cultivator is my new favorite type of pining. Love your NieYao content! <3

I don't suppose we could get Baxia or Hensheng throwing a tantrum while Jin Guangyao / Nie Mingjue are away, leaving their owners to deal with the embarrassing aftermath?

Also, do you have any recs you'd recommend with these two?

this is the exact moment Nie Huaisang realised he was going to have to start meddling in his big brother's love life (con't: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Hensheng, on the other hand, doesn't throw tantrums but WILL sulk...

I've been going non-stop with all the Minecraft promotion, and I'll just say right now that the feedback from that movie is crazy, and I'm loving it. I loved getting to play Garrett and being so over-the-top; it was a break from some of the things I normally do. I deserve a bit of a break, though, right? Especially since I'm going to start promoting Chief of War soon as well, and that schedule is going to be just as intense as Minecraft, if not more intense. But yeah, I deserve a break, and since I deserve a break, I should get to choose where I take my break, right? Because right now I have two teenagers telling me where they want to go on my break and vetoing every place I suggest to go on my break because it seems boring to them. It's my break, which means it should be my choice, right? Or am I wrong and my teenagers are right? Don't say they're right, though, they'll be smug then. @hfrpstarters

*banging fists on table* more mentally ill characters in stories that aren't just about them being mentally ill! More mentally ill characters in sci-fi, in fantasy, in romance and fun and high stakes situations and everything in between, as the heroes, as complex individuals, multifaceted and treated with respect, not having their needs and differences ignored or skirted around but, again, not having them be their only trait or plot point/entire premise! Please, I'm begging, on my hands and knees, there's a place for these topics and characters in realistic, reflective and literary fiction, yeah, but there's also a place in those magical, mystical, action packed, mysterious and alien worlds, give them to ME

// open. int. the w bar - night. 1st april

Despite Ash having no affinity with parties, the Wexley however loves them. Having avoided as many as he could in his years here, as many as his friends would let him anyways, guess it's much harder to avoid them once you're actually stuck in the building with literally nowhere to go. And it felt rude to not be here when it's a celebration for someone's birthday, especially Mr Wexley's. He knows he's not fun at parties and didn't want to bring it down for anyone. So instead, he found himself offering Charlie his help, not wanting her working any harder than she already is with not many people knowing of her situation, now standing behind the bar serving people drinks and watching the party go by from the sidelines.

Perhaps there was something about seeing families, friends, lovers, reunited since Spring hit, now altogether in one place here with a heartfelt warmth that filled the room, that an unfounded weight sank in his chest. Or perhaps it's the barrier of a bar counter and physical separation that made it more apparent of what he avoided feeling, but damn, he didn't like admitting that he felt lonely for the first time in a long time, and there was a guilt in feeling that, considering how lucky he's been. Ash was leaning back against the wall behind the bar, lost in his thoughts with a beer in his hand (knowing he's not in the right headspace for anything stronger) as his eyes glazed over the scenes passing by him at the bar and atrium until he realized someone had come up to him while he was spacing out, "-sorry, what can I get you?"

wishlist: bhaal temple era iago meeting someone on a rare excursion outside of the temple. having Someone else in their life they can interact with that isnt their brother. finally having an excuse to go outside more than once every few months. trying desperately to live this double life and pretend they are NOT in a murder cult so as to not ruin these little escapades. the light and life coming back to their eyes a little more every time they're outside. returning to the temple getting a little harder every time they have to go back. that lust for life coming back to them prematurely, as opposed to after they've already escaped in their main verse. having to deal with this growing desire to Live vs their loyalty to their brother and their fear of leaving. trying to keep it secret from the bhaalists and especially Puck (sorry puck..). an eventual reveal of their cultist hannah montana life. the epic highs and lows... please does anyone see the vision can anyone hear me

i need to find a title for it because i'd like to make it into a series or at least have its own tag (so i can edit and shitpost the hell out of it xx) but alright so. i have this soulmates au i've been harboring since march that has its own little world-building and features bonds of all kinds and every day it gives me the feels. like not every pair of siblings has a soul mark (there's seven as of season 3). those who do wreck my heart, and those who don't still manage to do so too.

anyway here's a small bit from viktor's book's abstract if anyone is interested. it's a wip so please don't judge :)

Dad had very strong opinions on Twin Flames and Soulmates, and he always made sure to remind my siblings that no matter what, the most important connection they would ever had was each other. Not because they were brothers and sister, but rather because they were a team; they were part of the Academy. This particular jab was no doubt directed towards Allison and Klaus in particular, since they were the only ones who were born with a Twin Flame, but it also served for the others, given the presence of Soulmates among us.

rattling the bars of my cage i love them.

five fic friday

five short canon-era:

there's always an escape (T, 500) by @medievill - gutted me: spare and sharp and precise. (cw: canon-typical 1x9 - 2x3 suicidal ideation Ed)

living in a powderkeg and giving off sparks (M, 6617) - Lucius tries to get people to kill Ed for him, post 2x3; the dialogue and narration in this are SO GOOD. lots about the futility of revenge and the path to healing. the conversation between Ed and Lucius is [stares into space]. (also Archie is hilarious)

Lovers of Beauty (T, 3825) by @saltpepperbeard - wedding fic where Ed wears a dress and has a lot of feelings about it. There's a specific emotional beat that just had me yelling YES THIS, calling back to both 1x9 and 2x6, and then the resolution is lovely.

Dear Gentleman Innkeeper (T, 3879) by @the-widow-olivia - this is just funny as hell, the voices are amazing, the conceit is absolutely delightful (innkeepers era, Stede publishes an advice column)

the inn is a metaphor (T, 999) by @wistfulcynic - I loved this on tumblr, and so I'm gonna recommend it again now that's it's on AO3.

plus a bonus AU that I recommend with caveats:

The Reno Cure (E, 85k) - I hesitate on this one, because on the one hand: it's so well-written, and with such care and research into the setting, and on the other hand: the Izzy characterization is so far off as to be a Whole Other Guy, and there is a specific plot beat with Stede that did a hard slam into the "he would not fucking say that" button. I immediately recommended it to one person, and determined that someone else would probably not enjoy it at all, so ymmv. In short: I can say that this really was an very enjoyable novel that happened to have some OFMD elements in it.

About Marcus / open to f / Your muse is either a casual thief, someone who just got curious and figured one or two precious pieces wouldn't be missed, or maybe she's a professional - up to you. Either way, Marcus catches her redhanded and fun ensues.

“I’d get my hands off of those if I were you.” Marcus leaned against the door frame to the large bedroom, effectively blocking her exit. The bedroom was on the second floor, and there were guards prowling the gardens just as he kept an eye on the inside of the party, so crawling out the window wouldn’t be the smartest plan either. His eyes travelled her slowly before making their way to her face, a brow arching slightly in challenge. “The lady of the house is somewhat fond of her jewellery, you see,” he pointed out, nodding towards the box the greedy little thief had already dug her hand into. Now, Marcus could commend a job well done, but she’d literally gotten caught with her hand in the cookie jar, so he had very little in the way of sympathies. Not that he ever did, but at least if she hadn’t gotten caught, she wouldn’t have had to deal with it.

I honestly really want this particular blog to be primarily plot-driven. Like, I want to set Adam's world. Give him a multitude of genuine connections that actually affect his character - force him into adventures and investigations and what-have-yous that drive his character forward and allow me to explore it to the fullest. I know all of my blogs are studies of the characters within them already, but this one feels even more so. I don't just wanna write Adam, I wanna WRITE him.

would i rather plot first or jump right in and see where it goes?: develop their relationship first | jump right in | something in between aka the one option where we started talking about them almost a year ago and then i headcanon everything about them, make a playlist, murder my feels with a drabble about their relationship and make a web weave edit and act like i'm normal about them when i'm really not. hypothetically speaking of course. it isn't like i've done any of this, nope.

what now?: let's plot something | send me shippy memes | i'll send you shippy memes | write me a random starter | i'll write you a random starter | all of the above
