bonus:

[theinternetisfulloftrash]

It has to be discussed……..any possibility of another coachella fic? I know you said you wanted to leave it up to interpretation but maybe Dylan and reader actually did NOT end up together because one of them ghosted the other but they crash into each other at coachella this year

Oh, SWEET anon...

YOU'RE FUCKING KILLINGG MEEEE!!!

You think the people are dying for a P2, huh? Gosh. I think about that story a lot and have thoughts about what happened with the two of them, of course. I love your idea of things just kind of falling apart or waning in the real world when the reality of how different their lives are hit (it's definitely one that's rolled around in my mind as well). I'm VERY tempted. Trust me. If someone spots him at Coachella this year, I probably won't be able to help myself ;)

anon is thirsty for a sequel to Collision Course Coachella. anyone else? Lemme know if this is in high demand. I do aim to please my readers, that's for sure ;)

[agentsnickers]

to this day, i am haunted by the person who commented on collision course implying that i had plagiarized from near miss

[puccafangirl]

The way Scrat tried to stop the door from squishing him by holding out his hands to stop the direction that the door just hit him in only to get hit by another side of it just really cracks me up. XD

Buck and Eddie's conversation at Eddie's hospital bedside where they're discussing Chris in 4x14 is very much two parents debriefing over the wellbeing of their child

collision course outtake: mama & papa

When I was writing my most recent kanej fic, “collision course,” a lot of sections ended up moved around, rewritten, or just left on the cutting room floor. I thought I would share two short snippets that were deleted in the final draft, simply because I wanted Inej, Kaz, & Nina to be the only speaking characters in this fic, and I thought these scenes would distract from the overall narrative arc. The first snippet was going to be placed in the first third of the fic; the short snippet at the end would have gone right before the final section of the story, before Inej’s letter to Nina. So here is a “collision course” outtake featuring Mama & Papa Ghafa:

When Inej sends the dates of her upcoming visit to the caravan, Mama replies, Shall I make space for one or for two?

They pester her about this for a few years. When she visits, Inej doesn’t tell them, we always sleep two feet apart. On the bad days, we can hardly bear to touch hands.

She tells them, “He’s very busy. He works very hard at his businesses in Ketterdam.”

Papa scoffs. “A hard worker is a virtuous man, but the man who works too hard is as offensive as the one who refuses to work at all. So he does not throw his life away on gambling, and drinking, and parties. But you are young. The most important thing in your life is family. How can he have any time for family when he is working so much?”

Inej thinks wryly, I’ve told Kaz much the same. But she bites her tongue, and tsks at Papa, and reminds him solemnly, “He hasn’t had much family for a very long time.”

Mama says, “All the more reason to bring him here, then.”

But there is a deep, dark, persistent part of Inej that worries: “Will he fit in?”

Alone in her cabin on The Wraith, it is lovely to imagine Kaz as part of her family, but the images are all hazy and vague: Kaz and Inej, sitting together near the campfire; watching her little cousins practice on the wire; curled together beneath silk sheets, in a caravan of their own. What would it really look like, when Kaz does not know the words they speak, let alone the songs they sing around the campfire? When he does not know the rhythms of the work days when they practice, and the saints’ days when they rest? When he can bear the feeling of Inej’s skin against his own, but not the passing caresses of her mother, or the bone-crushing hugs of her aunties, or the relentless leg-tugging of her cousins?

But Papa says, “Him fitting in here isn’t as important as him being here. Have him come, and we will figure out the rest along the way. Family is not only joy, but also pain. You do not get to choose which one comes your way, only who you get to bear it with.”

When Inej sends the dates of her upcoming visit to the caravan, Mama replies, Shall I make space for one or for two?

Kaz writes,

Mrs. Ghafa,

Would you do me the honor of making space for two?

Do you want to love me forever?? I could love you until my heart shrivels in my skeleton - eUë

Speaking of the tag, what about your OC’s??? How do we get to know them ??? <3

omgg thank you for asking!!! i’ve literally never actually talked about them on here except for randomly tagging post with their names lol. the ones for the short story I mentioned are kinda still works in progress (ig they all are but y’know) but i have another book series i’ve been working on with a whole cast of characters. so basically the main character is named adyen and he’s pretty much that archetype of “chosen’s ones best friend who gets killed off early in the book”. except he’s aware of that and actively tries to do something to change it. he’s human and good with a sword but that’s about it which in a world w magic and stuff is kinda hard for him. his (ex) best friend is lila. she’s the “chosen one”. she’s this super powerful elemental fairy who is being trained by lucien who is the head of the “revolution” (long story short it’s not quite as black and white as it seems) and she’s slowly becoming a different person than before and changing into someone adyen doesn’t know both by lucien and lucien’s right hand woman, jaya’s hand. they’re separated for a while and adyen decides to join one of lucien’s little war camps w a bunch of other “rebels” where he meets poe and piper who are twins. pipers a big fighter, really believes in the cause. poe doesn’t like fighting and they’re not a coward exactly but they just aren’t really built for fighting. while at the camp poe meets kol who’s a siren (but isn’t like seducing poe or anything). at some point they all find out lila has been kidnapped by the dark mages (the ones lucien is fighting this war against) and adyen and the twins come up with a plan to save her that involves adyen going in disguise into the dark mage kings castle. the dark mage king happens to be a guy around adyens age named kieran. the more adyen gets to know him the more he starts to wonder if he’s on the right side of the war. right now i have the series lined up as three books and ive been working on it for like 5 years now which is crazy. all of the characters have their own struggles and experiences that have been so cool to write and ughhh i just love them so much!!! i tried to keep this kinda short lol so consider this an introduction post to on a collision course with fire (the working title of the series) and i might have to talk about them even more in the future as they continue to grow and change!!!

[keeps-ache]

it's actually very mean that i can't have emojis of my ocs just on my computer. i just think it would be much more convenient for when i have to say the Guys are in my brain but i also have no words..

I know everybody says it gets easier as they get older, but I guess the trade-off's getting left behind. I know, but our main job as parents is to put ourselves out of a job.

nightwing secret files | nightwing 139

so in nightwing secret files and origins, there's a hurt/comfort storyline called "lost pages: teen titans." dick's robin and he's grieving for his parents and having a hard time, and he's gone off on his own, and wally comes and finds him. and then in nightwing 139, there's a hurt/comfort story where tim's robin, and he's grieving and he's gotten kidnapped and tempted into trying to resurrect his loved ones, and dick comes and finds him.

both of these comics are wonderful & i would now like to share my favorite parallels.

brooding over memories:

anger turning into tears:

outstretched hand of affection:

teary removal of mask:

hugs and family:

anyway i love these stories separately but i also love all the little ways they echo each other <333

i realise that the poly selfship with jer.za is going to be a little complicated especially if one of the members in the polyship goes missing for 7 years (er.za), and you unfortunately have to let the other member know about it who is also stuck in prison (jell.al). so like. poor sapphira is going to have migraines trying to navigate this very sudden and random spanner that was thrown into her life. oops.
